An Attractive Programme.
The attention of our readers is called to the announcement of the Kentland Fair association. The association will give their seventh annual exhibition on the fair grounds immediately adjoining Kentland, from Sept. 10 to 13 inclusive. It has been the aim of the directory to provide. entertainment for both old and young this year. Special attention has been given to the floral hall department, and it is confidently expected that this exhibition will excell that of former years. The outlook for the speed ring is very promising. Entries are being made in all the races and from present indications the race card will be an attractive feature of the meeting. The lovers of bicycling will be gratified, and Wednesday a good race is promised visitors. The purse. $75, is sufficiently attractive to induce riders of more than ordinary speed to contest for the prize. The revivial of interest- in base ball has induced the directory to provide two very excellent games for the amusement of the people. The managers of the Goodland and Remington clubs have agreed to the game Wednesday afternoon, and promise a splen-
did game of ball. Friday the winner of Wednesday's game will play the Biook nine, and the Brook boys are in training with the intention of carrying off the prize. Last year the old settlers' meeting was such an enjoyable feature that theassoiation felt inclined to provide some special attraction this year. It was decided that the little school children be requested to arrange a programme, and County Superintendent Pfrimmer. acting for the schools, accepted the invitation. Mr. Pfrimmer has the arrangements in charge, and this will insure a complete and entertaining programme for Wednesday. Hon. D. M. Greeting, state superintendant of public instruction, will deliver an address and will be followed by Prof. T.J.Basset, one of the foremost educators of the day. Thursday’s and Friday’s programme nave not been neglected and visitors will be amply repaid for their time and trouble if they attend those days. With one of the best tracks in northwestern Indiana, plenty of good pure water, and the grounds lying within three squares of the depot, all combine to make Kentland an attractive place for a fair meeting. Good music every day. Keystone Corn Husker and Fodder Shredder. Sold by Robt. Randle.
