THIS YEARS FAIR
The Old Reliable First and Best,
at Mineral Point.
The Managers VIII Make a Great
Effort to Excel in Every
Department.

Six weeks from today Mineral Point
will be a changed city-August 19 will
be Thursday, one Of the Big Days Of
the Mineral Point Fair.
The officers tell us that they are go
ing to make an effort to make this
years Fair about the best thing Of its
kind that the state Of Wisconsin has
ever seen.
To that end they have raised their
premiums in almost every class.
Particularly is this true in the
Live Stock divisions. Visitors at last
years Fair will remember the splendid
exhibition Of stock which swamped the
sOciety's accommodations.
In recognition Of this condition Of af
fairs the Fair Management have made
extensive repairs that will insure plenty
Of barn room and have placed their live
stock premiums higher than ever be
fore. The secretary has been receiving
numerous inquiries and every indica-
ton points to one Of the finest exhibits
Of bIooded stock ever brought together
in the state.
At a great expense the society has
been fortunate enough to secure Nicho-
las Chefalo and the Bonmors Arabian
Troupe for their special attractions
ChefalOs act is said to be the most
thrilling of its kind in the United States
It is a combination Of Looping the Loop
and Flying the Flume. The equipment
for this big act alone requires two cars.
The Bonmors Arabian Troupe are the

A FROG IN THE POT.
Vexing Days of the Early Tea Tax u
New England.

Ve>ling Days of the Early Tea Tax In
New England.
Tea was not brought over by the
first settlers. " hen the pilgrims land
cd at Plymouth tea was selling In Eng
land at from $40 to $50 per pound. 1t
was n luxury that had been known to
Englishmen only n few years.
Early settlers got along without In
dia or China tea for Il long time. They
used roots, herbs and leaves found in
the fields and woods as a substitute
for tea. Sassafras tea was a common
drink.
Tea was advertised for sale in BOs-
ton in 1862 for the first time, according
to historians. In 1866 patriots began
to take the pledge not to drink tea be-
cause Of the tax that the English gov
ernment placed on it, 1t became fash
ionable for patriotic ladies not to serve
India tea. but as substitutes therefor
Labrador tea" and Liberty tea"
Captain Page of Danvers forbade his
spouse to taste tea beneath his roof
as long as the tax remained upon 1t,
but the strong minded and ingenious
lady ascendcd to the fiat roof of the
house, invited her friends to follow,
and there she served tea to them.
Some other ladies Of the town Jared
less fortunately They used to bor-
row for their tea parties the big tea
pot OF the once famous Bell tavern.
One day, after drinking the forbidden
beverage, the master of the house un-
expectedly walked in, jumped to the
fire, grabbed the teapot and turned 1t
over, and out rolled a big frog. The
jovial patriots at the Bell tavern sus-
pecting the use of the pot had placed
the frog In it. Some of the danes
never drank tea afterward. for it made
them sick.
Isaac Wilson OF Peabody persisted
in selling ten, so the Sons of Liberty
seized him and compelled him to walk
about town penitently repeating:
J. Isaac Wilson. a Tory be;
I, Isaac Wilson. I sell tea.
The celebrated Boston tea party was
followed by tea parties In other New
England towns. In Salem, soon after
the Boston party, David Mason was
suspected Of having had his negro
servant smuggle two chests Of tea into
his home. Patriots entered and
searched his house. They found the
tea. They gave it to boys, who parad-
ed with it to Salem common and there
burned 1t.
Even after the Revolution trade in
tea was not wholly unrestricted. II
appears that IN some New England
places dealers in tea were required tC
take out license.-Boston Globe.

Red Hot Base Ball games will be held
every day. Mr.. Wilson, who oficiated
as umpire last year, will have the same
position again this year, and this means

the shape of a 5000 premium to the
horse breaking the track record of 2:12.

a Sudden Thinu.

1t is generally the easiest thing in
the world to drive a horse without
spirit. but there is one recorded in
stance where Il coach driver in d re-
mote English rural district covered
himself with glory for doing so. One
afternoon he and his coach and four
came rattling up to the hotel door like
an avalanche. As the coach stopped
one of the horses dropped dead.
THAT was a very sudden death" re,

The publishers of The Democrat have
been again reminded by a representa-

they must comply with the ruling
which requires that subscriptions must
be paid in advance to entitle newspapers
to be sent through the mails at second

not so paid one cent must be prepaid on

great burden on publishers Subscrib-
ers to The Democrat are kindly request
ed to examine the address tags on their
papers and make payments accordingly.

In the seventeenth century a number
of Chinese immigrants brought into
Formosa seed rice, which they culti-
waited in the Chinese way, producing
larger quantities and better grain than
was produced by the Formosans, who
had cultivated rice from early times
and had produced therefrom a dis
titled spirit for drinking. The FOrmo-
sans adopted the Chinese manner Of
cultivation.
