OUR COUNTY FAIR.
A Fair Commencement and 1'romlsing
Ontcoine.
For the first, day the attendance might
be said to be good yesterday. In the pa
vilion the display was being added to so
extensively that our reporter deferred
making special mention until later on.
The ladies have made a very creditable
display of fancy work, the floral corner
was well filled with beautiful plants, the
fruit tables loaded with choice speci
mens, and Mr. Curtis was out in full
with a display of Diamond mill products,
while Mr. Booth was preparing to paint
another booth red..
' In the stock pens and stables were to
be seen many fine animals, horses,
cattle, sheep, pigs, andon the side poul
try, etc., which will be considerably in
creased today. .
Of vegetables the list will be larger
than many supposed, but one pumpkin
weighing 117 pounds which was to have
been exhibited by Hon. Robert . Mays,
will be shown in fragments, as the Hon!
Mayor was informed that his twin
grand daughters had arrived at Mr.
Thompson's residence just at tlie critical
moment when he held the pumpkin on
a poise, unloading it, and be was so sur
prised arid taken back that he for the
instant forgot what he was doing, and
the pumpkin took a start and fell with
a thud splitting it into fragments.. It is
thought that there must have been some
design on the part of the gentleman who
thns "broke the news" to Mayor Maysi
as it is said that C. W. Haight of Bake
Oven bad a pumpkin he wished to enter,
and he was afraid Mays would walk the
first prize.
The first race yesterday was a quarter
dash, won by Mamie S, 1; Rockland, 2;
nd Frank Hastings, 3. Time, :25.
Next came a saddle boise-race, half-
mile dash. Six horses entered; nurses
were awarded the three fastest, in the
order in which they came in : John S-,
1st; Hartland Boy, 2nd; Dandy, 3rd.
Time,. :25i.
Following this was one of Bill Nye's
Jockey Jokes. To carry it out the man
agement secured three two-year-old colts
to trot the race, mile heats, best two in
Jt three. After nersnasinn. Mr. Sninea
auuweu ma iiaucj niiunij to enter, men
Schooling put up Rooper's Bunch Grass,
and Walker put Dandy in.
It was a Dandy race.
But Dandy was sent to the stable, as
he didn't get in after; the first heat had
been given to Nancy Hanks until the
clock run down. Time, 4:39 (standard.)
Pools, kept on selling with Dandy, in
the race, however, and until the horses
came on, at the expiration of the 10
minutes between acts, it wasn't known
outside just where Dandy had gone.
After the usual backing and filling one
of the men in the judges' stand got mad ;
that is according to Nye; and as the
horses were passing under the wire he
rapped the drivers up and notified
Schooling that he must win that heat,
or he would be fined f 10.
Schooling won the heat. Time 4 :52.
Four hours and fifty-two minutes?"
. It was now late, and as oneof the genT
tlemen in the judges stand had to go to
Portland to see bow things were running
at the Hotel' Perkins, the finish was
postponed until today.
The race was intensly interesting to
half a dozen Indians who remained to
see it, but to almost every , white man,
woman and child, who didn't under
stand that it was a burlesque, it was dis
gusting. -. " . s . . '.''' :

those who had pool tickets. The grand
stand was empty and the society was
cheerfully cussed for letting such ani
mals enter for purses. But one man
was found in the whole crowd to speak
kindly of the contest, and that was Mr.
Linus Hubbard who said the horses de
served credit anyhow, for one thine
they had beaten Maj. Handbnry's time
at Cascade Locks 18 years.
J. O. Mack, tbe secretary, has ordered
an 8-Day clock to time the next race of
this class. Stop watches are no good
they run down before the horses get in.
Races today were as reported in the
programme, gentlemens roadster, which
was a proud contest by six men owners

COLl'MllIfS DAY.
Reminiscences of tlife Santa Maria, Finta
. and Nina.
The windows of The Chhoxicxe office
today are decorated with '.engravings
illustrative of the voyage of Columbus,
400 years ago. On October 11th there
was rather a heavy sea on. A green
branch floated past the Santa Maria, and
on board the Pinta the men picked up
a small carved stick, which seemed to
have been ornamented by means of some
metallic tool. " Here were signs both of
land and of humanity, and the men grew
elated. Tbe Pinta sailed the fastest, and
was ahead of the admiral, and presently
land was discri.eu from her deck, whereT
upon, according to an understanding,
her flag was hoisted and she fired a gun.
At two in the morning of October. 12th
land was plainly seen at about two
leagues distance. The ships shortened
sail and laid to, awaiting daylight, when
it was seen that they were abreast of a
small island and the marvelous under
taking of Columbus was happily con
cluded. '
- It may well have been that, as has
been related, the crew of the admiral
flung themselves naesionately at the feet
of Columbus and implored his pardon for
their doubts and repining.:' As for him
self, it is certain that he was as modest
in the moment of victory as he had been
dauntless and confident through the long
days when .all about him despaired.
Then came the ceremony of landing
upon the new-found . country. The
island, covered thick with trees and
tropical verdure, sloped down .to the
coral reef and the beach along its edge,
where were gathered, quickly s day
light brightene d the scene, groups of
natives entirely naked, who gazed in
wonder and balf in fear, at the strange
floating creatures with wings flapping
white in the breeze that lay just outside
the reef.
Columbus found that the island was
named, in the language of the natives,
Guanabani. He named it San Salvador.
His first impressions of the natives were
strongly in their favor, and he never
changed as o this. They were gentle,
generous, faithful and obliging. Had
succeeding adventurers treated them as
did Columbus, they -would never have
lost these characteristics. The contrary
was the case, the Spaniards abusing
their confidence and maltreating them,
and they become suspicious, revengeful
and bloodthirsty. Their island and
those explored by Columbus at a later
period seemed to him and his followers
a veritable . paradise. .'. - . . ,
Thus the most' momentous occurrence
since the Crusade, unless . it were the
discovery of printing, took place, after a
perfectly safe and exceedingly monoton
ous voyage of six weeks, in the simplest
and most unconventional fashion im
aginable. To Castile and Leon, Colum
bus had given a new world, and a hand
ful of wondering savages were the only
witnesses to the sublime act beside those
who participated in it. Looking back
upon this scene from perspective of four
centuries, it seems increditable in its
lack -ai ostentation and ceremonial. In
deed Ah ere is something almost sublime
in the tranquility ..which marked , this
derful; adventure, ' whosej outcome
a to be the changing of the entire ex-
stence of all hnmanity. Two months
spent amid favoring winds and sees, tbe
flight of birds, the passing, by of ocean
weeds, and then America.
To no other such voyage was there
ever vouchsafed such a conclusion. Not
all of the world that has been discovered

began to colonize has ever shown such
magnificent results from such immaterial
causes. Rome and Greece and Carthage

through their arts, are forgotten in the

before Columbus made Jtda ipjtjal voyage,
and he never discovered the, continent.
His name has never been given to what
he found, or led up to it. After all, it
was only rediscovered and was, doubt
less, thickly populated tens of thousands
of years ago.. Vet it remains that tbe
character and the acts of Christopher
Columbus are without parallel in the
history of the human race.
It was Mr. Emerson who said "the
first wealth is health," and it was a
wiser than the' modern philosopher, who
said that ''the blood is the life." The
system, ,like the clock, runs down.- It
needs winding up. The blood gets poor
and ecores of diseases result. It needs a
tonic to enrich it. '- ' .'...-'
A certain wise doctor, after years of
study, discovered a medicine which
purified the blood, gave tone to the sys
tem,' and made men tired, nervous,
brain-wasting men feel like new. - He
called it his "Golden Medical Discov
ery.' :It has been 6old for years, sold
by the million of bottles, and people
found such satisfaction in it that Drt
Pierce, who discovered it, now . feels
warranted in selling it under a positive
guarantee of its doing good in all cases.
Perhaps it's the medicine for you.
