two rain storms this year. The rain Tues
day caused the postponement OF the OPP
euing OF the fair until Wednesday, and
Thursday nights rain came so late that
it kept few il any away from the ball
which wound up the two days festivities.
The Northern Hancock agricultural soci-
ETY. may perhaps be credited with break
ing the long drought and extinguishing
the forest fires. Far from feeling disap-
pointed by the rain Tuesday, everybody
welcomed it>as godsend.
The fair opened Wednesday with fine
weather and an unusually large attend
ance for the first day. Thursdays attend
ance was also good, and the average for
the two days was better than usual.
THE EXHIBITS.
The exhibition OF fruit and vegeta bles
at the hall was the largest ever shown at
this fair, and the quality, too, was above
the average. 1t was pronounced by many
the best showing Of farm produce ever
seen in Hancock county. c. M. Smith,
who as usual had charge Of the hall, was

the produce. In spite of additional tables
built since last year, there was not table
room enough, and the floor was filed.
Mr.. Smith was as usual very large
exhibitor. He received first premiums for
best display of potatoes, and best display
OF produce, and second premiums for best
display OF apples and best display OF
squash. William G. circuit had second
premiums for best display OF potatoes,
and Mrs. Carrie Campbell second premium
for best display OF produce. Arvill Jor-
dan had the best display OF squash, and A.
d. Archer the best display OF apples, he
showing thirty-five varieties. Mr.. Smith
had thirty-one varieties. J. q. Durham
and Arvill Jordan were also large exhibit
tors Of produce.
The ladies' department, too, was ahead
of last year, and in quality and quantity
was one of the best displays ever seen at
Amherst. There was much beautiful
needle work and many fine pieces of burnt
wood work. Miss Julia S. Jewett was the
largest exhibitor of fancy work. Mrs.
Guy Chick also had very fine display.
Mrs. A. c. McIninch and Miss Nellie
Haynes made beautiful exhibits of burnt
work. A set of pen and ink drawings by
Arno Jewett, aged fourteen years, showed
remarkable skill.
The display of preserves, pickles
and canned goods made by Mrs. 5. A.
Remission was admired land coveted by
women visitors.
There was good showing OF live stock,
all the stalls being filled.
The list of premiums awarded, presented
in full below, tells the story of the ex-
hihits.
ATTRACTIONS.
The principal attraction ontside of the
regular exhibits was the show put on the
open-air stage by the Browns. There were
some good acts on the tight wire and
bicycle by the four members of the troupe.
Lynch's band, of Ellsworth, furnished
music during the two days OF the fair.
BALL GAMES.

teaspoonful of pure powdered citroN
in two tablespoons OF hot water and
battle the diseased skin 20 minutes

must be made fresh each time and
used warm. taking care to get the
pure drug in sealed packages. Just as

According to Mrs. Burnham's observa-

much attention in the scientific world.

In for Thirty Years.


Glyndon's case presents the most
tragic story of all. He has served
nearly thirty years at Fort Madison
prison. He was a veteran, having
served in the Seventh Independent
company of Ohio Volunteer Sharp
shooters and draws a pension. In his
petition he says that old as he is and
inf1rm he would yet be able to sustain
himself through the work that he will
be able to do as free man with the
aid of his pension. Again he enters
the plea of perfect innocence of the
crime for which he has served during
the life time of generation. The
legislature OF 1907 pardoned Jasper
Mason, who had been imprisoned for
about thirty years, the members be-
lieving that the ends OF justice had
been served and that Mason had been
sufficiently punished b. confinement
