The \ exhibits were away ahead of any former year, b.th in quantity and quality, which speaks well for this popular fair. The hall was filled to it's utmost capacity with a great variety of ladies' woik. fine arts, farm produce, etc. The exhibits of poultry, pigs and cattle were rather few in number, while horsea and sheep were therein abundance. Considering the weather, the attendance was all that could be expected, and it was no small crowd at that. The priceeds from the show and concert were about |212. This •hows up well in ooiiiparis n wiih last year. The speaking iu th« afternoon was a pleasing feature. Thu «eni»l John Mo- Arthur did the duties of chairman in an affable, jolly manner. He introduced Dr. Sproule, Conservative candidate for East Grey, who addressed the crowd. Tlien f'lUowed Mr. H. U. Miller, Liberal candidate for Centre Groy, and Mr. R. J. Ball, his Conservative t>pp<>nent. The speeches were all of a happy, glad-I'ni- here, glad ycu're-all-here stylo, and but little of a p>Utical nature was heard. Mr. Hector McDonald brightened the proceedinus with hia bagpipes, and the Jaffray sisters gave an exhibition of Uighlani danciuK. The concert in the evening was well attended and was thoroughly enjoyed. The house wa* crowded till there was room for no more. Donald MscGregor, Scottish baritone, Eddie Pigg'itt. com- edian, Jaffray sisters. Highland dancers, and Hector McDonald, piper, all helped to make this oonoort the best ever. Among the newspapers represented at the show wore-. Shelhurne Free Press, by K L. Mortimer; Durham Chronicle, by W; Irwin; Durham Review, by C. W. £amage; and Fleshertoa Advance, by A. 8. Ihurstun. A dispute was held over the farmers' trot t)ito Konold, the winner, passed Ben McKinnon on the inside of the track, throwing him out of place. Mr. MoKin- ooa protested but the judges decided that the circuowtancca did not warrant the throwiax out of Mr. Konold, or the ruuning <rf the race over again. The apeoial prixe of $5.00, given by 8. Mcliityre, for iho best looking baby was made a finft priee, the Society giving f2.00 and Mr. Wm Irwiu »1.00 as second and third prizes respectively. There were six entries of the prettiest babies one could desire to see. Meisrs. W . G Pickett and C. Bamage were the men chosen to say which were the handsomest ones of the buoch. t>f couise, all could uot be satisfied. There were prizes for out throe. At any rate the decision was made and three mothers delightedâ€" still the babies showed no interest in the proceedings. So numerous were entries this year that the hard-worked secretary hatl to fall back on old entry tags and last year's ptize tickets to fill the bill. The tupply of these will keep pace with the growth of the show in future.
