jiurna': There was one man in Salem
to--ay that was happily surprised. -W.
H. Simpson, who resides about three
milss east f Salem, came to tie post
office to-day, and the delivery clerk with
a pleasant smile, handed him a small
package together with his ot.ier mail.
The package and its contents were not
looked for by Mr. Simpson, so when he
opened it lie was surprired, to say the
least. What was in the package, do you
guess? Why it was his testament lost bv
him on the ist day of July, 1863, at the
battle of Gettysberg, twenty-six years
age. On this day, the first day of the
battle, the boys were ordered to throw
oft their knapsacks, and from that day to
this Mr. Simpson has never seen his tes
tament. Who could have found it and
sent it to him is the unsolved mystery.
It may not be generally known as to
the precise terms of the compulsory
school law passed by the state legislature
during last session. This law makes it
obligatory 011 parents and guardians to
send their children who are between the
ages of 8 arid 14 to school for at least 12
weeks in each year, and eight of them
must be consecutive. A violation of this
law bv the parents or guardians . is a mis
demeanor and punishable bv a line of
not less than $5 or more than 20 for the
first offense; and not less than 25 nor
more than Sso for the second and each
subseciuent offense. In case the bodily
or mental condition of the child or chil
dren is such as to prevent their attend
ance, then those who have the care of
such children are not liable to the pro
visions of the law.
Salem Statesman: Early Sunday morn
ing A. A. Sutton, a drunken sort ol a
gambler, made an unsuccessful attempt
to commit suicide at the Chemeketa
hotel. Perhaps he wanted to scare his
wile into giving him money worse man
he wanted to die. He had 110 money affd
she had. and he demanded at least a
division. This she refused, when he c!e
clared he would kill himself, following
the declaration by making a gash across
his ami with his pocket knife. The
wound was painful and tended to sober
up Sutton who suddenly concluded that
this world was gooa enougii lor mm, uau
as he was. He came nere on August
25th, from Colorado, and brought with
him his wife and little daughter, who are
still here and are highly respected by
those who know them. Sutton took
leave of Salem on Sunday afternoon,
never to return, so he said.

From Monday's Pai'y.
A reporter of the Times-Mountaineer
took in the fair grounds this morning for
the purpose of noting the preparations for
the coming fair which will commence to
morrow. Upon entering the grounds he
passed along the race track which is in
most excellent condition.
The doors of the pavilion were thrown
open for the reception of exhibits, where
many were 'busy in arranging their various
displays.
Mrs. S. B. Adams was the first to have
her display arranged, which consisted in a
beautiful variety of hoase plants, so artist
ically arranged as to attract the attention
of ail who have an eye for tbe beautiful,
As they have until noon to-morrow to
complete the arrangements in the pavilion.
no complete report cau at this time be
given.
At tne sto-jk yards we saw quite a num
ber of fine cattle. Mr. Wm. Riley has two
fine Hereford bulls, one yearling and one
two-year-old. They are just op from the
state fair where the two-year-old took sec
ond premium and the sweepstakes. Ho is
a fine animal and weighs 1709 pounds.
He next visited the stalls occupied bv
cattle owneel oy ivir. 1'. 1 . Sharp, where he
has eight head ot the cicotch UigUnil Gallo
way breeds also a few bead of the Aberdeen
Angus, those cattle also have just return
ed from the state fair where they took sev.
eral premiums. At the state fair these
cattle were the first ot this breed ever ex
hibited.
We then visited the stalls occupied bv
horses that are to enter lor the various
purses and premiums. Matlock Bros, have
nve running horses on the ground. Among
tne tot is Liaay jjutty. a ueautnul Day nine
years old, and well known to the sporting
men of Oregon. She has carried away a
prize, ann, it we mistake cot, sue will again
win laurels at the approaching races.
There are altogether tin to noon to-day
about thirty-five horses that will enter for
the various running and trotting races.
Among them are the stables of Whitmore,
Babb, Mulkey, Boyington, Young, Smith.
Jones, Field, Fields, Bybee, Tongue and
others. Tncre are also about ten head of
stock horses and otiiers expected.
Owing to Itule bl of the miscellaneous
rules governing the association nothing can
be learned relative to the entries from the
clerks' books, but we are informed by Mr.
Andy Allen that about forty head of cattle
have been entered, and quite a number of
fine siieep, hogs and other stock will be
exhibited.
This afternoon, a reporter again visifed
the fair ground. Iu the pavilion quite a
busy anil attractive scene was witnessed.
Our enterprising grocers Messrs Maier Sc.
fjenton were the nrst of our business men
with their display in the pavilion. Their
large lettered sign is tacked up over their
display, which occupies the south east cor
ner ot the pavilion. Among their exhibits.
is a fiue display of Wasco county dried fruit,
that cau not be surpassed in any county,
lne next display by our business men,
was that of Mr. A. Keller, proprietor of tbe
uregon U-Uery. II is display is indeed an
elegant one, aud adds much to the beauty of
the pavilion.
Notwithstanding tbe dryness of the sea
son, the display of fruits, vegetables and
grain aheady iu the pavilion is sufficient to
convince the most skeptical that crops are
far from being a failure. Mr. Davidson, of
Jiiglit Mile, has 011 exhibition some wheat
aud oats iu the straw that would be a credit
to any country. He also has some potatoes
tuat was raised ou ins ranch and that will
not weigh less than six pounds each. A
fiue display of apples, pears and grapes are
also on exhibition.
A neat glass case containing a swarm of
Italian bees, are exibited by O. F. Angell,
Mrs. Acluuu has a lovely exhibit of need
le work. And a display of some of the
finest vegetables is offered by Sanddz Bros,
of Mill Creek.
Messrs Priotz & Nitschke,are represented
with a display oi elegant furniture, such as
is only handled by a nrst class and enter
prising business firm.
OMipr ' V h 1 ! 11 f Q an, tnnf-innallw unintnA in
and by to-morrow noon, the pavilion bids
fair to present the finest display ever exhi
bited iu Eastern O.egon.
From Wednesday's Dailr.
Upon arriving on the gronnd.sthis morn
ing onr reporter first visited the pavilion.
The entries closed last night, but we under
stand that a few of the exhibits that haye
been entered have not yet arrived. Among
the new arrivals of exhibits is that of
Houghton, the photographer. He exhibits
some very elegant work, which is charac
teristic of the enterprise ot the artist,
Some lovely plants, tbe exhibit of Mrs,
Ben. Snipes, occupy a conspicuous place in
the pavilion.
Mrs. Yarney has some lovely roses and a
few house plants on exhibition.
Some specimens of fine wool are exhibited
and some corn in the ear, that would do
justice to any country.
Xotb withstanding the entry books have
been closed, quite a number are still arnv
mg too late to have their displays entered,
Some of the exhibits look like they might
have drawn premiums had they been
brought in before the entries closed.
Messrs. Maier & Benton are the only gro
cers of The Dalles having an exhibit here.
It is encouraging to near new visitors
come into the pavillion with the remark
Oh! there is ever so much more here than
there was last year.
We have just been informed that one of
the displays of fine corn was made by Mr.
Bonney. of Tygh valley. We were told by
Mr. Robert Mays that Mr. Bonney has
about sixty acres of this corn, and that this
sample that is here on exhibition is a fair
one of the entire sixty acres. He says tint
he has been through the field, and that it
will average with the best crops usually
produced in any part of the Mississippi
valley.
At 10.30 o clock the nrrangement of the
pavillion may be said to be completed
Thirteen of our business firms have exhibits
here representing many of the business in
terests of ihe Dalles, lne horticultural
and agricultural interests of the conntry are
well represented, while art aud fancy work
have a good showing, lakinz it all in all.
Wasco county may be proud of the display
she has made, and the display of enterprise
manifested this year will place this District
Agricultural society on a firm basis.
Among the arrivals of speed horses this
morning was JVlaud Knox and JSevissa.
there will be no premiums awarded until

From Tuesday's Dally.
This morning our reporter arrived on the
grounds abont 9:30 o'clock. Exhibits have
been coming iuto the pavilion so rapidly
that to describe all of them would fill a yol
ume. One of the most elaborate displays
is that of our enterprising hardware dealers,
Messrs. Fish & Bardon, show a premium
Triumph stove which is superior for style,
looks, finish and durability to any stove
ever brought to Dalles City, aud we would
advise all to call and see it either at the
fair grounds or at their store and you will
agree with the reporter in his remarks.
Mr. 11. C. Nielsen, has an elegant display
ot the finest clothing ever exhibited in this
or any other city He is located at the
right of the side eutrance of the pavilion
and 110 display will be more attractive than
his.
Mr. A, A. Bonney brought in some corn
that was raised out in Tygh valley this
year, that is about twelve leet high, and is
verp fine.
A lovely display, of fruit has been made
and it is certainly equal to any ever exhib
ited heretofore.
A number of stands and games are on the
grounds, a circular swing has been set np,
ai.u at 11 o clock quite a number of sight
seers were present.
Among the speed horses that came in this
morning were Cyclone and Little Dick.
Tbe stalls are all full and from present
appearances etabling will be demand.
Mr. A. &. Bonney has two very hne De
laine rams 011 exhibition, and the exhibit of
fine stock wiil be equal to any heretofore
exhibited.
Many of the energetic ladies of The
Dalies have been quite busy beautifying the
1 avihon with their neat exhibits of elegaut
needlework and art. Among tbe most
conspicuous in millinery and handsome
needlework, are the exhibits of Mrs. C. L.
Pbdiips, Mrs. J. D. Lee, Miss Anna Lang,
Mrs. S. B. Adams, and others whose names
we would glatily mention but owing to the
rules governing the exhibits, their names
could not be ascertained.
Among the elegant paintings are those of
Mrs. Huntington, Miss Annie Lang, Mrs.
J. D. Lee and many others.
'Ibis afternoon exhibits rre crowding into
the pavilion. Some very elegant needle-.
work has been brought in this eyening. It
is impassible to learn the names of many
who have exhibited, but we noticed a very
tine display in this line brought in by Mrs.
E. M. Wilson; another lovely exhibit U
that of Mrs. Means.
RACES.
At 2 o'clock rate No. I was called. It
was a running race for two-year-olds, a sin
gle dash of of a mile.
Five horses were entered and took their
places respectively as follows: Riindrop,
1st; Roebackeu, 21; Helen Test, 3d; Mar
tin S, 4th; Handy Andy, 5th.
The race being of a mile on a half mile
track, the horsea were started 40 rods west
of tbe judges' stand.
It was 2:30 o'clock when the horses ad
vanced to their positions. The first start
Roebackeu was uot np and they were re
called. Helen Test was quite unruly, and
several times could not be stopped until she
bad reached the judges' stand. At about
3.20 tbehorses were all quite evenly started.
At the judges' stand Roebacken got tbe
pole, aud Raindrop immediately took sec
ond place. At the quarter post, Raindrop
again got the pole and held the position the
reniaiuder ot the race. At the half mile
post Martin S. and Handy Andy abandoned
the race, and the other threw horses beld
their positions with no perceptible advan
tage iu favor of either. At tbe three-eight
post Heleu Test began to loose, her rider
urging her the remainder of the race.
Raindrop got 1st money, Roebacken, 2ad
and Helen Test. 3rd. Time, 1 07.
Race No. 2 was a trotting race for year
lings, single dash of half a mile. There
were three horses entered. Thej took posi
tions as follows Maggie L 1st, Bangor 2 1,
Rockland 31. The race was quite slow as
the time will indicate, being made in 2:01.
At the one-eigth mile post Bangor get tbe
pole and held it until the end of the race.
But little interest was exhibited, and the
three colts trotted in about one bnndred
yards apart, with Bangor in the lead, Mag
gie L ecoud and Rockland behind. It
w ill be some time before any of these colts
beat tbe record of Maud S.

From Thursday's Duly.
It seems that one has to leave the pa
vilion but for an hour to return and find
many new additions. The most promt
ncnt of the new displays that greet the
eyes of the visitors this morning, is that
from the Columbia Candy Factory. It
was brought in last evening, and artist
ically arranged by the senior meml r of
the firm, Mr W. S. Cram. Words are in
adequate to its description and it must be
seen to be fully appreciated. It is with
out question the sweetest display in the
pavilion.
Mrs. M. L. Bardon displays a lovely
cactus of a rare and beautiful variety.
Some very lovely work by Miss Emma
Humbert, attracts much attention. There
ere many new visitors in the pavilion at
an early hour this morning, and all seem
well pleased with the display, and the
universal expression is that the display is
the largest, grandest and more complete
than any made heretofore.
1 he arrangement has been under the
supervision of Col. E. )V. Nevius, who is
the right man in the right place, and tbe
great beauty of the display is due to his
energy and artistic taste. At 10 o'clock
his morning manv of the committees
were at work in the pavilion, awarding
premiums. Other committees are also at
work in the stock yards. It was an
nounced yesterday that a cattle parade
would take place this morning at 10
o'clock, which could not take place be
cause of the absence of some of the
judges. We will mention the time again
when it can be definitely ascertained:
Mr. A. M. Allen has the supervision of
the race track, and a better man could
not have been found for this position
Through his untiring energy the track is
in me uest possible condition, aud men

If our friends from Hood River had been

everything can be adjustei. We got D.

completed, and now they are all wi thdrawn

At l:M P. M. the galleries were filled
principally with ladies and children, and
many more are crowding in unable to find

taken place at 1 o'clock, is delayed in con-
sequence ot one ot the bands failing to ar

of Hastings came into the stand and claimed
a foul, stating that Repetta run into his

The 2:28 trotting race was not filled op to
time of going to press.
This completes the list of judges as they
were appointed lor the various divisions.
Some of them are now, at 1:30 P. M., on
the grounds among the stock awarding
premiums, but as the entry books can not
be had, and the judges refuse to make their
awards known, nothing dehnite can be as
certained until the books can be bad. Tbe
managere have arranged for a grand parade
of cattle, that have entered here, to take
place to-morrow at 10 0 clock A. M. and a
like parade of horses at 10 A. M. Friday.
This afternoon a gieat many people are
present.
i he grounds around the pavilion are very
dnsty and the management seems to be
slack in this respect. A few dollars ex
pended in - sprinkling the grounds in the
Vicinity of the pavilion would have added
much to the appearance of the ground.
the races.
The horses for race No. 4, were calle I
to the track about 2:30. There were five
hor?es w bich took their positions respec
tively as follows: Guido got the pool,
Monty Sharp 2d, Kite .id, Monte Field 4th,
Lady Duffy 5th. The race is half a mile
and repeat. Guido has been the favorite
among most of the sports, but Lady Duffy
is not without her friends among those who
know her.
The pavilion is filled with spectators.
and the fences along the track, resem
ble a living wall of humanity. Your re
porter was allowed a seat in the judges'
stand.
At 3 o'clock the horses took their posi
tions on the track preparatory to starting.
Alter several attempts, the word was
given and fonr only of the horses started.
Guido was tlT ahead of all the others and
beld the f.o!o to the end of the heat. The
decision was as follows: Guido first, Lady
Duffy second, Kife third, Monte Field
fourth, Mouty sharp did not leave the post.
Latly Dulfy started a rod or more behind
Guido, and remained behind until the mid
die post was reached when she began to ad
vance, and came in a head and neck behind
Guido, the other two horses only twenty
and thirty feet behind.
There is some dissatisfaction over the
failure of Monty Sharp, to start. Her
rider was certainly not at fault. He check
ed his hone just as the word was given to
start, which threw the other horses far in
the lead, but it was too late to recall them.
1 ime of nrst heat, 521.
1 he second dash was called in twenty-five
minutes, with Monty Sharp ruled out.
Guido and Lady Duffy got started at each
call, with the others from one to bye rods
behind.
The start was finally made but at the mo
ment of so much interest, Lady Duffy waa
three rods behind Guido, who was in the
le&l. The noble little mare made a desper
ate race, and came in a length behind Guido
and g t second money. At the quarter post
Monte Fields was np to the front bnt was
soon passed by Lady Dnffy. Gnido, came
in nrst, lady Dully, second, Monte f ields,
third end Kife fourth.
Tbe judges did all in their power to get
a fair and even start, but with bo maiy
horses on tbe track it is quite difficult to
do so. Time of race 51 1-5
No. 5, trotting race was called in thirty
minutes, and the horses took their positions
respectifully as follows: Nervissa 1st, Maud
Knox Z, Lioona d,f. i he race is throe best
in five, mile heats.
Toe nrst beat the horses were evenly
staited. Leona'a driver polled her off the
track soon after starting, thinking that they
were called back, thereby loosing consider
ably, but upon seeing bis mistake let her
go, and at the quarter post Knox and Ner
vissa were trotting evenly abont 5 rods
ahead of Leona. At the first half mile
Leona took the pole and held it the re
mainder of the race.
The first heat was decided, Leona first,
Maud Knox second, and . Nervissa third,
time 2:47. Tbe second heat was called in
twenty-five minutes, Leona at tbe pole and
Knnx eecond. The first quarter was made
in 39. Leona had the lead in this beat for
tbe hrst half-mile, closely pursued by Knox,
with Nervissa twenty yards behind. At tbe
three-quarters post Knox took the pole and
held it to the end of the heat. Time, 2:40.
Knox first, Leona second and Nervissa seventy-five
yards behind.
The third heat Knox had the pole and
Leona second place. At the start Nervissa
waa a little behind, and remained so to the
end of the heat. At the half-mile post Le
ona was a head and neck ahead, but the heat
closed with the three horses two lengths
apart, Maud Knox first, Leona second and
Nervissa third. Time, 2:43. .
The fourth heat was the most exciting. At
the half-mile post Knox and Leona were very
close, with tbe difference iu favor of
Leona. At the post the driver of Leona
again pulled her from the pole, and Knox'
gained an advantage. At the three-fourth
post Ltona again advanced on Knox, and
many thought ihe had the race; she came
in, however, about a foot behind. This
gave Knox three heats and the race, and
Leona one heat. Nervissa was a hundred
pords behind. Time of heat, 2A'.i. The
list beat, which gave Knox the race, waa
running
$200. At 2:15 the horses for No. 6 were
ordered out and took their places on tbe
track respectively as follows: Moses B
got tbe pole, Monty Sharp 2d, Repetta 3d,
and Coloma 4th.
A large and enthusiastic crowd are
present. The grand stand is being rapid
ly filled with anxious spectators. Pools
are selling $10 for Coloma, for Repetta
and $3 for the field.
The start will be made at the quarter
post, making two and a half circuits cf
the track.
At nbont 3 o'clock the horses were
started. Coloma soon took the pole close
ly followed by Repetta, and both held
their positions until the end of the race.
Coloma got first money, Repetta second
and Moses B third. It was evident from
the first that the race would be between
Coloma and Repetta. Tho race was very
close between them, and a very littie
would have giyen the race to Repetta
The other two horses came in Moses B
20 and Monly 100 yards behind. Moses
ti did not lose much until the three lourth
post had been reached, but Montv soon
fell far behind and remained so until the
end of the race. Time, 2.1 7 ' ! .
Race No. 8 is the next one called, and
the horses are ordered out. There ore
four horses in the race. Pools are selling
on this race, Cyclone first choice lor 10,
Bogus and the field alternately at $4.
1 11 is race is a single uusn ot halt a mile,
and the horses took their places respect
ively as follows: Joe Dandy got the pole,
Bogus 'id, Frank Hastings lid. and Cy
clone 4th.
This was the closest race ol the season.
The start was quite even, ancf the result
very unexpected. Joe Dandy got first
money, Cyclone second, and Hastings in
last. The three first named horses came
in very close, and ran together the entire
race. Cyclone came in next to the pole,
and lost first money only by a head and
neck. Time 51!.
The next is No. 7 trotting race and
comes on immediately.
There are two horses in this races. Al-
win and Pandora. Pools are selling at $
ou Alwin and $10 on Pandora.
At 4:15 they were called to their posi
tio is, Pandora got the po!e. At the quar
ter post Alwin was two leugths ahead and
took the pole and held it, and the same
distance In the lead until the thrcc-fonrth
uost was reached, wheu Pandora gained a
little.
Alwin won the first heat in three min
utes, with Pandora a lengh behind. Pools
arc selling irregularly, immediately alter
the first heat, Alwin sold at $9, to $4 on
Pandora, but Pandora soon rose to $20,
against $8 on Alwin.
The second heat Alwin had the pole, but
it was soon taken and held by Pandora, at
1 he one-half post Pandora was three
lei g'hs ahead, but at the three-fourth post
A'wiu began to close in and cheers went
up from thn grand stand for Alwin. Pan
dora took the heat by a length. Time
2 i21. The time allowed between heats
is 2J minutes.
1 1 requires the third heat to decide, and
at this lime little betting is being done.
The same man drives Pandora to-day
that drove Leona yesterday. Many of
the spectators have left the grand stand,
and no great interest is manifested. Be
tween heats Mr. A. M. Allen is busily
engaged in dragging tbe track, and is al
ways vigilant in his duties.
The third and last heat Pandora has
the pole and at the first one-fourth post
was three lengths ahead with no change
in the next half mile. Pandora won a
length in the lead. Time 2:54)4.

There were many visitors present on the
grounds at any early boar this morning.
The premiums have all been awarded ai d
all are anxio is to see the piiie displays.
The cattle tarade mentioned yesterday
came off this morning at 10 o'clock, and
attracted much attention. They were lead
around the trao'i end wero observed by
many from the grand stand. The parade of
horses immediately followed. All who
were on the grounds and in the pavilion
assembled at the trick to witness these
parades.
The entry books containing the awards of
premiums have just been placed in oar
hands. There is a very long list, and we
will give aa much of it as possible to-day.
We are under obligations to Messrs. J. 0.
Mack, A. N. Yarney, J. A. Vtrney, Emil
Schnte, A. M Allen, E. W. Nevius, T. A.
Ward, and others for many favors.
At one o'clock we again visited the
norse at tne commencement ot the race,
The horses came around tbe track in tbe
form of a procession in the order above
named, 1'oebacker a hundred yards in the
rear. Repetta was tbe favorite at the
boxes, and took first money without dilfi
culty. The judges overruled the claim of
foul and the race stands adjudged as above
mentioned. The horses were started at the
quarter post, aud made one and a half cir
cuits ot the track. 1 line, 1:20.
The band contest was immediately rallid
and they played on a platform near the
judges stand. The Goldcndale band played
the hrst piece and acquitted themselves
creditably. Ihe trotting horses are exer
cising on the track while the band is play
ing.
The trotting race will come on immediate
ly and the bands will intersperse music be
tween heats.
The track is in b ti -r condition to-day
than ever. After the Goldendale band had
played a piece tbe horses were ordered out.
and took their positions aa follows: Fantasie
got the pole. Bishop Hero second, and Har
ry Velox third.
While tbe horses are getting ready the
Goldendale band played another strain.
The horses were very evenly started.
Fantasie had the lead, and held it during
the heat. Harry Velox took second place
and held it, coining in a head and neck be
hind Fantasie; Bishop Hero, was about two
lengths behind. Time 2:38.
The time between heats is 20 minutes.
The Dalles band is playing some very sweet
music while the horses are being made
ready for another heat.
Bisbop Hero sold as favorite for a while
to-day, and later Velox sold as first choice.
Tbe last beat was very close between Fan
tasie and Felox.
The. horses are again ordered out. This
time Harry Velox has second place. Velox
took the pole at the first quarter post and
Fantasie took second place.
Decision of second heat, Harry V. lx,
1st, Fantasie 2J and Bishop Hero 3d.
Time, 2:34&. The horses came in shout a
length apart.
The bands are again discoursing music in
competition for tiie prize. The galleries
and grounds are stilt thronged with yisitors
and to-day is decidedly more attractive
than any since the commencement of the
fair. The competition by the bands for tbe
prize is closed, The Dalles and Goldendale
bands only competing. We called upon
the ?udges, Messrs. Wm Cumming of Gold
endale aud W. Birgfeld of Tbe Dalles, who
kindly offered to make the decision known
if C-.d. Morgan and the leaders of the
bands would consent, but as they wish to
make a display in the armory hall nothing
can be made known.
The third heat was called and the word
given, ihe liorses almost instantly
changed positions, Hero taking the pole,
Fantasie 2d, and Velox tbe outside ana
fur behiiid, and remained in this position
until the judges' stand was reached;
Bishop Hero two lengths ahead and the
other two almost together, but decided ia
tavor of clox 2d and Fantasie 3d. J line.
Tlirje heats have been trotted and each
horse has won.
The fourth heat Hero was 100 varus

within a length of the other two at the
eud of the heal. The other two hcrscs
were a tie, and the lourth heat will lie
I rotted over again. The nest heat Yelox
has the pole, Fantasie 2d, aud Hero 3d.
Complaint wes made to the judges rela
tive to the way Fantasie was driven, and
they called upon Jos. Misner to drive her,
and he has taken his place in the sulky.
The judges are determined to have the
fait horse win, and are watching the driv
ing closely and will have a fair race if pos
sible. Fantasia has lost a shoe, and a
blacksmith has been called to replace it.
The race caunot bs decided until very
late.
Tbe interest in the start has increased
since the drivers were changed, and twenty
minutes were exhausted in starting. This
time the race waa between Fantasie and
Hero. At the three-quarter post Hero took
the pole and was closely pursued by Fan

Velox 3d. Hero has two heats, and each
of the others one. This heat was driven
for blood.
Velox has been selling first and the other

Gentlemen I can cheerfully and truth
folly say that S. S. S. is the greatest blood
purifier on earth. In 1884 I contracted
blood poison. Physicians treated me with
no good results. I took a half dozen differ
ent kinds of blood medicines, but, without
receiving any permanent relief 1 I was in
duced to try S. S. S. I began the first
bottle with the gravest doubts of success.
I had been so often deceived. But im
provement came, and I continued its ore
until perfectly well. I have since married,
and have a healthy family. No trace of the
disease is seen. Swifts Specific did all
this for me, and I am grateful. Yours
truly, J.'S. S TRADER.
