The first part of the occultation of
Mars by the moon Wednesday evening
was not noted by observers, though
many were watching. During the time
that Mars was covered by the moons
dix, the clouds and mist cleared away,
and the appearance of the planet from
the western limb of the moon was seen
by the watchers.

et;. Dr. and Mrs. II. p. Forbes, Mrs e.
A BesSey, Miss Lenora Bessey, and
Miss Julia p. Morton, made short trip
10 their camp at Shagg Pond last week,
a portion of the party remaining three
DAYS Their only full day at the camp
was stormy, nevertheless stormy weather
in a good camp is not the worst thing
that ever happened.
II is not news to any one that there
was heavy, killing frost last Monday
night Nor is the statement OF the
weather bureau questioned by any one,
that it was the coolest night on record in
August in this section. All but hardy
stuff in the gardens was wilted under its
touch, and corn fields suffered severely.
This is proving rather a hard year for
the farmers. With the apple crop short,
AMI the crops badly affected by the
drought, this uutimely frost has given
the finishing touch to considerable of
the seasons work and harvest.
Though the building was not complet-
Ell by Sept. LIST, good progress is being
made on the addition to the court house,
the pasteripg now being well along.
This building is of what is known as
fgeprOOf construction, and is the only
building in the vicinity, aside from
few inside vaults, so constructed. Very
little wood is used about il, and the ex-
terror of the building shows no wood ex-
posed, except the window frames. The
coping under the caves, although an
exact match with the wooden coping on
the main building, is of steel. Inside
also there is almost nothing that could
burn, even in an intense heat.
The fair grounds is still a busy place,
completing the years improvements and
getting ready for next weeks fair. Elec-
trio lights have been installed in the
buildings, and three arcs will illuminate
the Midway" at night. The moving of
the fence, taking in an acre or more OF
