 Automobiles Help County Fair.
 Financial reports made by officers of the Windham County Agricultural so- c1ety for this year are so satisfactory as they have been during the past few years, as to indicate positive reiuve- nation of interest that is very wide- spread in annual exhibitions Of this kind. Many attribute this, in ccnnec- tion with the underlying vailts of the fair, to the great improvement in country roads and increase in the use of automobiles, which bring hundreds of people to the fair from long dis tances. There is every reason to be. l1eve that the Brooklyn fair, now hay- ing only one competing fair in the county, will continue to expand and increase in aetractiveness.

MANAGEMENT OF
LIBRARY IS PRAISED

tFrom Sundays -? -
Praise for the efficient and ca
pable manner in which the local
public library 5 being conducted by
is board Of trustees was extended
by Mayor William H. TimerhOff at
a session OF that body held yester-
day afternoon. The meeting was
primarily called by Mrs. Morris
Goldwater president, ior the pur-
pose OF comforting with local ply
sicians in connection with the pro-
posal to permit tuberculars to Dor
row books from the institution.
With the city executive in attend
ance, the board had the opportunity
to breach the long standing propo-
sition of turning the management
OF the library over to the municipal
government Mayor Timerhoff was
told that it might perhaps be to
the better advantage of the institu-
ton to have the city take charge
and conduct it along its own lines.
The city executive replied that
the city was doing all it could in
the way OF assisting financially at
the present time, and that he didn't
believe the management could be
in the least made more efficient
OF capable.
The library is now supported
jointly by revenue derived from
the rental of offices in the library
building and monthly donation of
$50 from the city. 1t is generally
conceded that this institution. how
ever small in proportions. is one
OF the bright and pleasing assets
of the city.
1t is open daily, contains many
shelves OF good books and daily as
well as weekly and monthly period
icals. The conditions for the re-
lease of books are practically the
same as in other Carnegie libraries,
the local one having been donated
by the great philanthropist about
fifteen years ago.
Yesterdays meeting was ad-
journed until next Thursday when
the local physicians. comprising the
health committee OF the Chamber
OF Commerce. will attend the ses-
sion with a view OF outlining plans
which will enable tuberculars to
enlist among those who take books
from the institution.

REDUCTION PLANT is
PLANNED FOR POCAHONTAS
(From Saturdays DsilyD


W. H. Skinner, general manager
OF the Pocahontas Copper Queen
Company. OF Big Bug district, is
very much pleased as we'll as clated
over determinations made recently
in deep development. there being
every indication OF an attractive
gold producer being assured.
He stated yesterday that a well
defined ore body OF three feet in
thickness had been cut into on the
lower level in a Wine that gave
values OF 81 per ton in gold. No
assays have been made for other
metals.
The strike was made at depth
OF about 1874 ieet and a. a point
800 feet north OF the old Popkiss
shaft, the original point OF operating
the property by Mr.. Popkiss. After
acquiring the group several years
ago. the present company operated
at intervals. and Under conditions
that were somewhat discourag;ng.
Persistcncy has triumphed and with
meteorological conditions established,
and a large tonnage available, the
placing Of a reduction plant on the
property in 4 short time has been
deemed expediert
When originally operated BY Mr..
Popkiss this mine gave flatterilg re
turns in the yellow metal, and it
was on this showing the sale was
contaminated. The customary fault
in the formation was encountered
and the ore bodies were found to be
irregular and disturbed in their geo
logical make, until recent develop
mcnt proved the existence OF a well
defined shoot as in place and without
any future doubt as to its per
manency.
The Poc5hontas holdings arc situ-
ated below Mayer, about four miles,
and the company is in the hands Of
residents OF the city by that name
