side trying to earn the more money,
starting from penny given by the
Great Commander, and by the rules of
the contest the defeated side would

MAIL BY FREIGHT

Week
columbus Journal)


Last week for the first time second
class mail comprising mostly the
monthly magazines, was sent by
freight instead of the fast trains, and
several carloads of this class of mail
matter were received in Columbus.
The Pennsylvania carries the freight
mails from New York, Philadelphia
and Pittsburg, while the New York
Central Lines brings it from Buffalo
and Chicago. On the roads now trans
porting the freight mail the mails will
be weighed for the next three months
to adjust the rate of payment and to
find out just what the saving will be
over the regular mail car service. With
the congestion of second-class mail
out of the way, it is expected that
the movement of second-class mail
will be greatly expedited on the fast
mail routes, as the clerks can give
more time to the distribution of mail
EN- route. 1t is probable, however, that
If it is continued it will result in cut.

COLLISION
Of Auto With Buggy Causes
Runaway

Mr.. end Mrs. William Bricker, resid-

of somewhat exciting nature while
driving to MT. Vernon on Thursday
morning When at point about half
way to the city they were overtaken
by an automobile and, thinking that
the driver of the machine wished to
pass. Mi. Bricker pulled to the side
of the road. Just as he did so the au-
tomobi]c turned in the same direction
and struck the back of the buggy with
considerable force doing some slight
damage. The shock frightened the
horse which ran for short distance,
but was finally brought under control.
Mr.. Bricker states that he does not
know whether or not the driver of the
car was inexperienced or whether the
accident was the result of pure care
lessness. He secured the license num-
ber and prosecution may follow

Attracted Much Attention
Being Highly Interesting And
At Times Exciting

Ideal weather, fast races and a large
crowd of people marked the second
day of the Knox county fair which is
now in full blast. Wednesday was a
grand success and gave the great
county event a send off that will carry
it through the remainoer of the week
if the weather remains favorable.
A large number of new entries of
various descriptions were registered
Wednesday morning and by noon ev-
erything was made in readiness for
the larger afternoon crowd which was
even greater than was anticipated by
the association. The speed depart
ment is crowded to it's capacity, tenn
porary stalls having been erected at
the last moment, and il is with diff
Guilty that the horses are being hand
led by the men in charge. The pro-
gram of races shows sixty-six entries.
The race course was without doubt
the afternoon. The track was exceed
ingly fast and some fairly good time
was made in several heats in the two
races. While no records were broken,
the sport was highly interesting and
at times very exciting. Every heat
brought horses and drivers battling
neck and neck on the home stretch,
the second horse always finishing
close, amid cheers of the enthusfas-
tic throng of spectators.

Thursday.
Thursday morning saw an immense
outpouring of people into Mt. Vernon
and at an early hour the street cars
were burdened with passengers for
the fair. Many people from the coun-
try drove direct to the park. The in
dications were that the largest crowd
in the history of the fair association
would be in attendance, but the driz-
cling rain that set in shortly after the
noon hour had the effect of keeping
many Mt. Vernon people away from
the grounds. 1t was at first thought
that the races scheduled for the after-
noon would have to be postponed, but
the rainfall at the starting hour had
only been enough to lay the dust, max
ing the track in better condition for
racing and certainly more agreeable
to the crowd present than on the pre-
ceding day.
