THE FAIR.

Tlie School Premiums—The Success of the Week.

The Fair association is ahead about £2,OCX) on the week's fair, but this money does not mean net profit, because expenses in the way of a permanent interest have been incurred.

The Gazette of yesterday said: The chlet worker on every agricultural board is the secret "ry. It is he who does the bulk of the detail work, who comes In closest contact with the people. It need not be said that Mr. Oakey has made a splendid success. Everyone knows it. There Is no proposition more cordially and unl versally conceded than this.

This is a deserved compliment^ The Express speaks advisedly when it says that to him more than ony other one man was the success due. He has cultivated an interest in the fair among the people outside the city that told in Thursday's gate receipts and in the agricultural display. Mr. Oakey has zealously attended to the details in reaching every cross roaJs in this and adjoining counties. He has employed the news papers in the territory from Mattoon to Greencastle, and Danville to Vincennes to advertise the fair, and the Express has seen more space devoted to our fair and consequent interest in it in these newspapers here in the little empire of which Terre Haute is the capital, than ever before. In doing all this and in many, many like judicious things, he has labored as few men do in any profession in. life.

Myers Bros, were awarded first premium for finest display of, mens, boys and childrens clothing.

Mrs. J. W. Washington took the premium on cake, instead of pumpkin pie. as stated.

The following awards were made at the fair in class N, which includes penmanship and map drawing by pupils of the county schools. This exhibit attracted a large share of attention on Tuesday, as many of the children and parents from the country were interested. The display was excellent anjd will make for next year a still better one. Our merchants should offer specials of high class for work next year and our word for it they will see a fine result:

TJ. Kussnor,

Everyone who goes through the Ex position Hall is attracted by the exhibit of L. Kussner. It includes a Lindeman cycloid—the Lindeman uprights have been sold so rapidly that none could be exhibited—Harrington upright, beautifully finished in mahogany in organs the Whitney & Raymond United Strtes and the Kussner, both beautifully finished and rich-toned instruments. The display of small musical merchandise is very attractive and, all together, one gets a good idea of the big stock and endlefs variety carried by the Palace of Music.

A BRIGHT OUTLOOK.

How Local UtisinpsH is liegun to Pick up With the Coming: Coltl Weiilher.

What are the prospects for fall trade? asked the reporter yesterday evening of Mr. Marx Myers, of the firm of Myers Bros. "Exceedingly flattering, whether or not it is due wholly to the big crops, is a fact that business has greatly increased in the past two weeks. To-day's trade was far ahead of any previous Saturday following fair week." "Do you expect this increase to be kept up?" "Yes, and we have made our purchases accordingly. Not only have we laid in a larger stock than ever before, but in meu's wear we have bought more freely of the finer grades. Extra preparations have been made for the children's trade, and while we have always done a large business in that line we shall make special effort this season. Altogether the bright outlook for business has led us to buy heavier and the better grades of goods than ever before."

Hills Agiiinat The Fair.

Bills for supplies etc., furnished the Vigo County Fair, should be presented before Wednesday morning. Premiums paid on application from 10 a. m. to p. m. any day this week.

Myers Bros, are showing some elegant fine drees suits for early fall.

California fruits, fresh candies, ice cream, etc., at Eiser's.

Myers Bros, have made grand preparations for fall trade, new goods going on their counters every day.

No premium offered at the fair, attracted more Universal attention and was of more interest, than that offered for the best loaf yeast wheat bread, made by any person or society of Vigo Counts. This grand premium was a Challenge Garland Cooking Range, valued at $53.00 and was won by Agnes Daily. This lady was very wise in her choice of flour, having selected the popular brand of W. L. Kidder & Sons' Best Patent, made at their Imperial Mill, corner Tenth street and Wabash avenue. This firm also received first premium at our last year's fair. The Imperial Mills are taxed to their utmost capacity, running day and night in order to keep their rapidly increasing trade supplied. W. L. Kidder & Sons deserve success. They have invested a great deal of money and now have ths largest and unquestionably best flouring mill in the West.

See the new designs Myers Bros, are showing in men's fine dress suits for early fall.

TWO MEN FROM OUTSIDE TOWNS, John.—Well Charley, last time you were in Terre Haute you got "run in."

Charley.—Yes, S2 and costs, §11 in all. Drinks cost over a dollar each. John.—Well, I didn't drink rifle whisky, and didn't get "run in." I smiled at Cobweb.

THE COLD WAVE.

EARLY FROSTS IN THE NORTHWEST DO MUCH DAMAGE TO CROPS.

The latest reports from northern Minnesota and the great Northwest Territory indicate that the "killing frosts" have been general throughout that section of the country. It is an admonition that cool crisp autumn weather will soon be with us, and to be properly prepared for the change, you ought to go at once to Fred Freers and leave an order for one of his perfect fitting suits of clothes. Fred never fails to give satisfaction in fits, and his prices are reasonable.
