NOTES FROM THE FAIR.
The fire ladies have an exhibit
of their hand made wool shawls and
fishing rods, which is attracting con-
siderable attention.
There were more than the usual
number of refreshment stands on
the grounds at which to secure re-
viving beverages.
No ones complexion was spoiled
in the bleachers today, because the
bleachers are now rooted in and a
part of the grand stand, and don't
bleach"
Clarence Saulpaugh was the man
who had the brilliant idea which re-
suited in putting a canopy of boughs
over the band stand near the race
track. Mr.. Saulpaugh also assisted
in the manual labor connected with
it.
Patrick Sheehan, who is one of the
jurymen in this term of court, proved
this morning that he is public
spirited man and booster" of the
fair. When Clerk of Court Krost
called the roll this morning he
called Patrick Sheehy." There was
no reply. He said again, in STEM
torian tones, Patrick Sheehan." Fl
nally one of the jurymen rose and
said, "Mr. Sheehan is working at the
Mankato fair this morning" With
Pat it is case of court after the
