FULL LIST OF PREMIUMS AWARDED.


week, and the many visitors who were
here from all adjoining counties spent
a most delightful time. A few men
were noticed in their cups, but no Sc
rious trouble occurred during the week.
The attendance was large each day,
but Thursday the crowd was a record
breaker, fully six thousand people
present
There was not as much stock as usual
exhibited, due perhaps to Liberty Fair
and Columbia Fair conflicting, but the
horses that were here were good ones,
making the rings very attractive.
The mule, cattle, hog and sheep
shows were up to expectations, and in
many contests it was difficult to tie the
ribbon.
In all the contests Mr. Sam Maxim, of
Lebanon, and Mr.. w. F. Owsley, of
Burkesville, were the Judges. They
are gentlemen who have been handle
ing horses and other stock for many
years, and having no interest at stake,
and being strictly honest, every exhibit
tor had fair and impartial showing.
We are satisfied that every decision was
made according to honest judgment,
hence there was but little if any kick
ing.
The music rendered by Wehley's
Band was high class and very enchant-
ing.
The premiums awarded follow, the
first named the premium, second GER
