COLUMBIA FAIR AUGUST 20, FOUR
DAYS.

At 4. Meeting of the Columbia Fair
Association last Wednesday, the follow
ing gentlemen were elected Directors:
w. L. Grady, Robert Young, James
Garrett, R. F. PAUL, R. L. Smythe, j.
H. Young, Allen Walker and C. S.
Harris. Allen Walker was elected
President, R. L. Smythe Vice Pres
ident and c. S. Harris Secretary. The
date for the Fair Is August the 20th-4
days.
1t is the purpose of those in charge
this year to make many improvements
on the grounds: to remoddle nearly ev-
cry building, and to provide all the con-
veniences possible for the accommoda
ton of exhibitors and spectators. The
catalogue will be arranged in the near
future, and while it will contain many
of the old features, yet it will have
quite a number of new premiums.
More attention will be given agricult.
ural products, all kinds of fowls, ladies
work, flowers and domestic manufact-
ured articles of evry description. 1t is
the intention to erect a neat building
for this purpose, and to make one of
the most attractive exhibits ever seen
at a country fair. All agricultural art
icles, and all articles exhibited by the
ladies will be received on the first day
of the fair as usual, but will be kept
on exhibition until the 4th day. The
Association will also provide for keep
ing sheep, hogs and cattle. This will
be departure that will enable every
visitor to see the premium stock, and
will stimulate exhibitors as well. The
truth is that too little attention has
been given the products of our home
people. Nearly all the premiums have
been offered for horses, and the blue
ribbon kind are not found on the farms.
In view of the great change to be in
PRODUCED this year that will offer a
nice premium from a Bantum chicken
to German Coach horse, from the
most delicate needle work to the mas
sive. heavy weight counterpart, from
the tiny flower to the big red rose, and
all the articles of fine cooking.
1t is hoped that renewed interest will
manifest it's self, and prove the venture
profitable to all

in memory of our loved one just gone.
The sad, sad, intelligence reaches US
of the death of our precious father and
it came in the power of death blow to
us-in that dark hour just the strong
arm of Jesus was sufficient to lean on
and his promise alone could give COM
fort under such circumstances.
Was it not for the thought that we
can go and live with him in a better
world than this, how could we bear it..
1t seemed hard that he must die with
the vast distance between him and his
children he loved, and that loved him
so much. But thank God, this is only
the dark side of the picture, and when
we turn to the other side, we can but
say, our grief is folly. He needed not,
our tears of anguish; Heaven had
claimed its own and he has gone to the
reward that awaits him there for many
kindnesses and the good work done
while here.
He was an indulgent father, good
husband and ever ready to render as
sistance to his neighbor or friend in
time of need, and many a sleepless
hour has he spent on the public high
way with only his saddle horse for his
companion, speeding his way to the
couch of sufferer.
But God saw that he had done
enough and said, labor no more in the
earthly vinyard, but come to a broader
field He must have had visions of
rapture whispered to him from be-
yon enableing him to look away from
earth across the troubled waters to a
higher plain, and to home more sub
lime. 1t was impossible on the short
notice for us to reach him before death
had claimed him.
But to the heart broken ones at home
and other places, let me say while we
are separated and some of us may
never meet again, let us live so that
when the summon comes for us we may
be able to assemble at the throne and
meet dear father, mother and other
loved ones where there will be no more
parting or sad good byes.
Farewell, Dearest Father, Thou hast
left us,
And thy Precious forms entomed.
But thy dear memory will be cherished
Till the Great Father calls us, child
rem home. A loving daughter.
Follis, Oklahoma.

DIAMOND HEADS
VERSUS SAINTS

The st. Louis College Alumni base
ball team tthe old H. A. C.s) has now
practically determined on its lineup
for the game on washington's Birth
day with the Diamond Heads. The
only change of consequence is the loss
of Barney Joy in the pitchers box, but
the form shown by Johnnie Williams
in the Saturday game is good earnest
that the Saints will not fail in that de-
partment.
The Diamond Heads are no whit be-
hind their opponents, II at all. A
glance down their lineup shows sur
prisingly. strong team. Ed. Desha as
pitcher will have a chance to show how
he stacks up beside Johnnie Williams,
and he is certain of good support.
The line-ups are as follows:

BARNEY JOY IN
GOOD COMPANY

Barney Joy. when he makes the LONG
journey across the warer will finc
himself In the best of company in the
large pitching staff which Manager
Danny Long has managed to get to-
gether from the ends of the continent
There will be at least 26 men to re-
port for practise between the LIST and
9Th of March. and OF these ten have
made good In the pitchers box. Har-
ry B. Smith has the following to say
about these men in the San Francisco
Chronicle of February 10th:
The pitching staff at Bakersfield
will include at least ten men, and from
this squad Long predicts that he will
get at least half dozen good twirlers.
Goodwin and Hardy have been secured
from the Washington Club of the
American League to which organiza-
tion they belong. Goodwin pitched last
year for Milwaukee in the American
Association and his record of winning
games is .5SS.
Hardy is a southpaw, a stocky fell
low, who pitched for Providence in the
Eastern League and reverted to Wash
ington. According to letters Long has
received, Stahl thought very highly of
Hardy as promising material.
Buck Washer has been engaged en-
tirely on the recommendation of Silk
O'Loughlin, the umpire. Two years
ago, Washer was with the Philadelphia
Nationals, but was released because he
lacked control. Since then he has been
playing Independent ball around Phila-
delphia, and last season attracted con-
siderable comment from the critics.
nj n1xy nd
p. Welch are all familiar to the base
ball-loving public of San Francisco. as
they were on the local team last sea-
son. Los Angeles wanted to trace
Charlie Baum for Wheeler, but as
Baum belong, to Altoona under the
terms by which the outlaw league en-.
tered organized baseball, Long is glad
that he stood pat. Wheeler is a good
all-around man and can fill almost any
position on the team.
Trumbull will be the giant of the
pitching staff He is six feet two
inches in height and tips the scales at
1870 pounds. He has been playing semi
professional ball in New Hampshire.
Providence and Jersey City were both
after his services, but San Francisco
secured his signature to D contract.
Hickey also came from New Hamp-
shire way. Last year he lost but three
of the games he pitched and two of
them were against the Cuban Giants, |
the colored team that beat Comma |
Mack's stars three out of four games. |

Athletic club, Is said to be high class,
both in the pitching and batting de-
partments. Just at present, he is work.

Frank Arrelanes is too, we'll known
to need an introduction. Henry Har-
ris had Arrelanes at one time on the
San Francisco team, but dropped him.
Then he played third for Mike Fisher
and finished the season with San Jose
in the State League. His showing
against the Eastern stars was what at
tracted renewed attention to Are
lanes, as hel struck Chance out four
times.
