Factoryvllle, Sept. 13. The second
annual fair of the Maltland DrivltiR
Park association closed last Friday,
liavlMK been held four days Sept. 7- S-U-
and 10th. Although this was the
f-ccond fair held on these grounds, the
efforts of the association has heen
crowned with success, financially, and
In the matter of exhibit, and attend
ance. The attendance was the largest
of any fair ever held in this county,
the ayerase attendance per day for
four days being 3.000 each day, or total
attendance 12,000. There was not i
Hinglo accident of any dlscrlptlon; no
Intoxicating drinks were sold within
ii mile and a half of the grounds; and
no disorderly conduct was reported.
The large attendance, owing to the re
moteness of the driving park was re
markable. The park Is three miles
from the nearest railway station or
town, they being Dalton and Factory
vllle. Tlicrrwomfeter registered on
Thursday 90 and Friday 94 degrees and
not a breath of air was stirring.
Three prostrations from heat, on the
grounds were reported Thursday, and
one Friday, but none of them resulted
perlously. Owing to the season and It
being a little early, the agricultural
exhibit was small, but carefully select
ed. Another feature that this fair was
noted for, was the absence of the big
pumpkin which was not there; wo sup
pose that the bugs are responsible for
that. The poultry exhibit was very
good this year and a marked Improve
ment over last year. The races each
day were all that was expected, the
track being In good shape, except that
It was very dusty. "Williams won the
one mile bicycle race In Thursdays
contest, and on Friday there were
seven entries for the bicycle race. The
rules of the asoclatlon stated that the
time In this race (called the "Diamond
race") must be 2.30 or better or prizes
would not bo awarded, they being a
fifteen and a ten dollar Diamond.
Bone, of Dunmore, came In first, and
Sack close second. Time 2.5D and was
consequently decided no race, with the
privilege of withdrawing entrance
fees.
The Dalton Cornet Band furnished
music for the occasion. The "starting
judge" was James II. Kelley, of Dun
more, chief clerk H. A. Depue, Dun
more, the judges were S. Kennedy and

A rivc-Ycnr-Old Girl Nearly Killed
In it ltuiinvav--Tcrrlblo Death ofn
Little Hoy.
A team owned by Fredrick J. Os
good, ran away yesterday forenoon and
In the course of their lllght knocked
down a little girl and very seriously
Injured her. Mr. Osgood wa3 at the
Davis Brothers planing mill, at the
foot of Centre street getting a load
of lumber. The load was partly on,
when the horses wero left stnndlng
alono for a moment. They became
frightened and dashed frantically over
the Erie tracks, past the depot, nnd up
Grand aventi . When they wore at
the point where the nvonuo turns west
towards Main street, they vcrred off
Into the ditch on th'ii right hand side
nnd finally gained the sidewalk nnd
plunged along until they were brought
to u sudden stop by a telegraph polo
at the point where Railroad street
crosses the avenue. Just before the
horses came to a standstill, the flve-ycnr-old
daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
John Fcrta, was knocked down and
run over. Shu received an ugly and
ragged gosh In the lleshy part of tin
right leg, nnd several stitches wero re
quited to close It. It is supposed that
the toe cork of one of the horses struck
her therj. It looks as It one of the
wheels also poised over her, as tlio
lower part of her abdomen and tlio
Kinnll of her back were btulsed and
discolored. Her rlcht arm was hurt
at the elbow and slightly bruised be
low the shoulder. The small sufferer
was taken to the home of her parents,
In the B. Maxey building on Main
street, and Drs. Blakesleo and Gardner

will probably recover.though the physi
cians are not sure yet 1ut that she Is

A wry distressing accident which re
sulted In the death of throe-year-old
Joseph Dillon, occured at Vandllng,
Saturday afternon. The little boy, who
Is a son of Mr. and Mrs. William Dil
lon, was playing on Main street, when
he was run over by a wagon containing
a load of hay. The whirls passed over
his abdomen and the child lived less
than thirty minutes after the accident.
The driver did not know of the sid af
fair until he uns npprlsd of It after
ho had driven away som distance. No
one knows just exactly how the baby
got under the wagon. One story is that
It was getting out of the way of a
street car and ran directly under the
vehicle. Another Is that th loaded
wagon was standing still, while the
driver was waiting for a team nhead of
him to get out of the way; that the
child dropped an apple, which rolled
between the whuels, and that Just as
the lltle lot was about to secure the
fruit the teamster started, not knowing
the child was there. The funeral oc

THE MARKETS.
M'nll Street Itcviott
New York, Sept., 13. Tho most Inter
esting fact connected with today.s
slock market , was through buying or
ders cabled from London. The stocks
most largely bought by London were
St. Paul. Kansas and Txas preferred,
Union Pacific and Southern preferred.
If It had not been for the upwaid ten
dency of prices at the opening In sym
pathy with London quotations, It la
probable that net declines would be
much greatwr than they are. Thus the
extreme decline In Burlington was 2
points, In Missouri Pacific I!1! In St.
Paul, Rock Island nnd Northern Pacific
prcfetred, 1; Manhattan, 26! Mobllu
nnd Ohio, 2(4; nnd In a largo number of
shares over a point, The rise nt the
opening and a partial recovery nt the
close makes the net losfes less than
this, but tho average In the active
ptocks Is little less than a point. Tho
decline was pncouracul ns much as
possible by the bears and tho effect of
llerce raids was evident in u number
of prominent stocks. The bears, how
ever, were only partially successful.
Quito a firm tone was evident in the
coalers nnd the group closed fraction
ally higher. The Industrial stocks gen
erally shared In the weakness of tho
market. Load leading the decline with
a loss of 2 points. SIH;er scored a fur
ther sharp recover of Hi cents In New
York and pence In London. The to
tal sales were 5S7.317 shares.
