FLIGHTS AT
COUNTY FAIR

That the annual Interborough fair of
the Richmond County Agricultural So
eiety to be opened Monday, Labor Day,
September 5, on its grounds at Dongan
Hills, and continue for six days will be
more attractive this year than aver be-
fore is indicated by the fact that Man
ager A. G. Nellis is in communication
almost constantly with Glenn 81. Cur
tiss, the aviator, one of whose aero
planes the manager hopes to have at
the fair grounds every day. Mr.. Nellis
does not expect Mr.. Curtiss to make
a fight personally but hopes to have
one of his airships there with one of his
understudies under the direction of Mr..
Curtiss. A steeplechase ON the opening
day, open to thoroughbred horses that
have followed recognized packs of
hounds will be a new feature at the
fair. The part of the program is in
charge of p. A. Hart, of the Richmond
County Hunt Club and he is endeavor-
ing to get a good entry list.

GRAND JURY To
INVESTIGATE
LICENSE CASE

Arrangements were made Thurs
day to have the next grand jury in
vestigate an alleged fraud in connec-
ton with a saloon license of Ernest
Dairne, at West New Brighton, s.. L.
Dairne intended to open a saloon on
Castlewood avenue, across from st.
Mary's Protestant Episcopal church.
Members of the church objected on
the ground that his license was not
legal.
Justice Putnam ordered Dairne
and Excise Commissioner Clement to
to appear in the supreme court in
Brooklyn on August 10 and show
cause why the license should not be
revoked. William Mullaville was
the petitioner and A. G. Metcalf the
attorney.
Mullaville makes the remarkable
assertion that none Of the names
signed to Dairne's application for a.
license was obtained for that pur-
pose. They were attached to a petit
ton, he asserts, circulated by
Charles D. Weiss in 1908. He want
ed to sell liquors in bottles only in a
grocery he started at No. 812 Cas-
Teton avenue, but which he sold out
at auction on Labor Day, 1909. The
Dairne application was for the priv
ilege of conducting a saloon at No.
500 Castleton avenue.
The signatures obtained by Weiss
two years ago were cut off his origi-
nal petition and pasted to that of
Dairne, 1t Is said. This is why, the
property holders there say, none of
them knew anything about Dairne's
plans until he had obtained his sa-
loon license.
The obiector to the license even
asserts hat one person whose name
appears on Dairne's application died
January i, 1909. He was Patrick
Carr, of No. 1872 Davis venue.

The Dog That Died of Fright.

Without reference TO the muZzling order

restraint and sanity the part of the
people OF Washington regarding the
treatment Of dogs at large An incident
occurred the other day which displayed
iamentabie disposition on the part OF hui

little dog that was playing about on Cap

son and ran rapidly through the streets
Some one cried, Mad dog.' Immediately
a crowd gathered. and for several hours
this unfortunate little animal was bonn
barded by a mob after il had taken
refuge under a box. Rarely has a more
sense!ess display of fear been given by
an assemblage of human beings The
large assemblage contained not one indi-
vidual brave enough to approach the
dogs hiding place. and ii was not until
the official dog catchers were summoned
that the animal was taken from its re-
treat. IL was dead
Upon reference of the remains to the
bureau of animal industry it has been
found that this fox terrier died of fright
There was not a sign or trace of rabies.

The President as Partisan.

When the President Cancelled his west

quarters his decision was interpreted as
taking him entirely out of partisan ac-

development of campaign events, but
would take no hand in shaping it,
This, Of course, was erroneous. Mr..
Taft could not II he would retire into any
such isolation. Although President of
the United States, he is still the titular
leader of his party and expected to assist
in the solution of its difficulties. Local
leaders go 70 him with information and
for suggestions and he is glad to see
them. He recognizes their right to an
audience, and considers it his duty to
grant audiences.
Since the cancellation of his trip, Mr..
Taft has conferred with prominent re-
publicans from a number of states about
campaign matters, and has appointments
with others. Mr.. Crane has been telling
him about Massachusetts,. Mr.. Wood
ruff has given him one side Of the re-
publican row in New York. An influential
Maryland republican has had a word

from Tennessee IL expected at Beverly

English regattas at a rate to give the
sportsmen of those two countries Occa-
sion to believe that there is after all
something substantial in the continued
success of the new world yachtsmen in

speedy has this schooner been in all her
races that on one occasion an attempt
was made to handicap her out Of the run

to sail Now it is reported that MEM
Der of the Royal Yacht Squadron of Eng

may do next season there. can be but

main that she was built over here.
