Tho Oil City fair was considerable of
a hummor, as the papers claimod it
would bo. Tho exhibits were especially
fine, though perhaps not so numerous as
they will bo at tho next and future occa
sions, as a natural sequence. The racing
and other attractions wore far above tho
avorage at county fairs, and tho manage
ment kent tho crowds interestod by the
promptness with which each piece on the
program was brought out. I lie big day
was on Thursday, whon it is estimated
over 20,000 were on the ground. For the
initial effort the fair may woll be pro
nounced a complete success, and, haviug
made a record, it is to bo hoped tho asso
ciation will consider itself able to got
through the noxt year nicely without the
gambling dovices so much in evidence
on this occasion. This was about the
only feature to mar the otherwiso pleas
ant affair.
