President William Dewitt Hyde of that

at the little chapel of the faithful a
service of prayer and song was held
to ask the counsel of God and to await
his revelation. Dozens of the faithful
have given up all hope of the great
elorification at the present time and
have gone to their homes, but others
have arrived to take their places. Mark
r. RaCkliffe, leader of the sect in
Yonkers, n. y, said that large num-

much in the same manner as prayer

other meeting at which only the

Robert j.. Pcary refused absolutely To

these records to remain in cache at

Cook, is as follows.

on the first day was small, owing to
showery weather. but Saturday found 5000
NJ more on the grounds to enjoy the ball
games horse racing and hall show The
nremiums to exhibitors are always paid
without question, big crowds or small,
and if the account of the treasurer is
small and an off year comes with receipts
too small for expenses, a loan is nego-
tiated This is an excellent feature of
this fair and one which serves largely in
maintaining the interest and support of
the citizens OF western Somerset county
This year the agricultural features of
the fair were better than usual. Stock
dav was Friday and the threatening
weather failed to interrupt the long string
OF cattle, sheep and poultry headed for
the grounds
There are few, if any, localities in Maine
where three towns can produce such a
showing of beef and general purpose cat

the sheep business in Maine and at the

PEARY VS.. COOK.

Portland, Me. Sept. 26.-It was
mandcr Peary tonight that the COM
mander justifes his action of refusing
to allow DR.. Frederick A. Cooks in
struments or records on board the
homeward bound steamer Roosevelt on
the theory that he had been aware for
some time of Cooks intention to claim
the discovery of the North pole and
that Peary, therefore, would sanction
nothing in aid of this project. Peary's
forthcomin statement concerning
Cook, it was also learned, will charge
that the Brooklyn explorer cannot
produce shoes, sledgeS or other equip
ment which will show the wear and
tear that comes from travel over the
Arctic ice. This is the first intima-
ton of any specific evidence that the
commander will produce, although he
has said from time to time that he has
evidence enough to discredit DR.. Cook.
1T seems evident that Pcary is de-
sirOuS of issuing his statement in the
near future, especially since the arriv-
