A meetim; of the Cass county Agri
cultural and Mechanical Atso:;iation
wa3 held at the Court Iloibje, on Satur
day November 7th, Elias Sage, Presi
dent in the chair; II. U. Windham, Secretary.
The principal business of the meet
ing was to ascertain tlie financial con
dition of the Association, in order that
provision might be made to pay off the
premium indebtedness of 1374, as pro
vided for in the amendment to the by
laws found on page 10 of the premium
list for 1874, which is as follows:
"In case the Society at the elos of
the fair, fails to have money enough b
pay all indebtedncss.and the premiums
awarded, in that case the indebtedness
shall first be paid in full, and the pre
miums shall be paid 7ro rata, from tlie
funds remaining on hand; which pro
rata payment shall be taken as pay
ment in full for the premiums so awar
ded." After ascertaining the indebtedness
of the society, which includes unpaid
premiums for the years 1872 and 187:J,
one hundred and sixty dollars, money
loaned the Society, and the expenses of
the fair for 1874, it was found that but
50 per cent on the dollar could be paid,
and the Secretary was instructed to is
sue orders accordingly.
It is to be regretted that the Society
is unable to pay the premiums for 1S74,
in full but this was not anticipated
by tlie most sanguine, who understood
the financial condition of the Society,
and we are highly delighted that we
are enabled to pay off our back indebt
edness, and even pay 50 per cent on the
dollar of premiums for 1S74.
We are under obligations to those
persons who have manifested a benev
olent spirit towards this enterprise, by
donating their premiums i:i full; and
to tlio.ie who arv.vpt thero rata pay
ment a.; canceling their claims against
the Society, we extend our most hearty
thanks. We think the wisdom of this
plan of ro rat i p ayrnent is patent to
all, as it is but a small sacrifice to each
individual, but in the aggregate, it
amounts to a sum which lifts a burden
from the Society and loaves it free and
unencumbered.
AVe are now out of debt for the first
time since the Association was organ
ized; our future is just whatever the
citizens of Cass county propose to make
it, we have every tiling to encourage us,
it is a fact that the Cass county Pair
for 1S74, was tlie most successful one
in the State, what may we make it
another year being free from the em
barrassment of old debts.
Persons claiming premiums will ob
serve by referring to page 13 of the
premium list that they must be called
for by the 1st of January, 1875, or they
will be forfeited to tht Society,

but BIoss seems to kick an ink bottle
at a sheet of paper and then send it
down to the compositor as an editorial.
This part of a page was used as the
foundation of a plot to destroy human
life. A line or two was written above
it, Bloss's page marked "solid," and it
was handed tri-a "jour" who had just
struck the o;ik-e. He claimed to be
lightning on tlie "set" and on reading
manusciipt, and he setup the intro
ductory line like a whirlwind. When
he came down to BIoss he grabbed for
a cap "A", laid it for a second, and
then drove for the "Y" box. Then he
threw that back and picked out a "?"

with a dollar mark, and the typo paus

foot on the cross-bar of his rack. Af

some more, corrugated his brows and
hauled the copy under his eyes. It was
no go. He held the page further off,
close to his nose, slanting to the right,
and square before the window, but lie
couldn't start it, and he knew in his
soul that no other human outside the
Kra'iin r could do it. As afternoon
faded into twilight he laid the page
aside, set up two or three lines out of
his head, and then slipped into his coat

he had set up the words: Tell my moth

heard to ask if death by drowning
wasn't easier than hanging, and it is

Ladicrons Pse or the Word "He."
Highlanders have the habit, when
talking their English, of interjecting
tlie personal pronoun "he" where not
required, such as "The King he has
come," instead of "The King has come."
Often, in consequence, a sentence is
rendered ludicrous. A gentleman
says he has had the pleasure of listen
ing to the Bev. Mr. (let his locality
be a secret) and recently he began
his discourse "thus :
"My friends, you will find tlie subject
of discourse this afternoon in tlie first
Epistle general of the Apostle Peter,
chapter 5 and verse 8, in the words,
'The Devil hegoeth about like a roaring
lion, seeking whom he may devour.'
Now, my friends, with your leave, we
will divide the subject of our text to
day into four heads. Firstly 'Who
the Devil he was Y Secondly We shall
inquire 'Wher the Devil he was?' and
Where the Devil lie was going?'
Thirdlv 'Who the Devil he was seek

Devil he was roaring about.

Among other enterprising citizens
who contributed to that show was Mr.
Dillon, of the Normal (near Blooming
ton, 111.,) who is a dealer in Norman
horses, thick of limb and broad of
i eam. Mr. Dillon has recently im
p -. ted quite a number of those "!tii
ma'is from Europe, and had a "six-in-hand"
team attached to a ponderous
vehicle on the Pair Grounds. Driv
ing aroand the course, t lie horse fan
cier met old Sam Buekmaster, of this
State, and induced him to accept a seat
in his ca;avan. They drove several
time s around the track, and were tlie
observed of all observers; but finally
Mr. Buekmaster grew "bored" of the
affair, and seeing two gentlemen ap
proaching, said, "There is the Presi
dent; I must get out and meet him."
"The President!" exclaimed Dillon;
"why that is just the man I want to
see. I wanted to get hold of a man
that is si good jude of horse-tle.-di.
Which is tlie President.?"
"The gentleman in dark clothes, ear
ning the umbrella," replied Sam.
""Hallo!" cried Dillon to the strang
er; "come here; I want to see you."
The gentleman with the umbrella ap
proached smilingly and shook Dillon
by the hand, supposing that he was
some old acquaintance of other times.
"What do you think of my team?"
said Dillon.
"They do very well," said the man
in dark clothes.
"Jump in and let me show you their
pace. Bring your friends along,"
shouted Dillon, heartily.
."You must excuse me; I don't want
to be conspicuous," said the stranger.
'Conspicuous be d d," remarked
Dillon. "D n it, man, get in here and
let me give you u ride behind these
horses."
"No no," cried he of the umbrella,
"I must be going."
"D n it, man, why the d 1 don't
you get in? I won't eat you," said the
horse fancier.
At this the stranger and his friend
turned abr iptly awav, and were lost in
the crowd.
"Well," exclaimed Dillon to Buck
master, who stood bv dumbfounded,
"don't that beat h 11?" dust to think
that the I 'resident of a one-horse Mis
souri Pair refused to ride behind my
team. What a d n sop lie must be.
"President of tlie Pair!" shouted
Buekmaster, in amaze; "I should say it
did beat h 1. Dan't you know who
that was?"
"No," he replied ; "you told ni'i he
was the President."
"So lie is the President." rejoined
Buekmaster, but not of th. L-'air. Why
surelv vou knew him.
"I'll be hanged if I did." said Dillon.
"I was sure he was President .of this
Pair."
"Oh, Lord! this is too much!" cried
Sam. "Whv. that was the President of
the United states."
Dillon grew very red in the face, and
slowlv gasped forth: "Was that
(Bant?"
"Certainly, it was Gen. Grant."
Dillon caught up his reins, dropped
his whip, and exclaimed: "Oh!"
The horse fancier was n t seen on
tie F;.ir Grounds afterward.

When Goldsmith Maid came round
the third time, and the judge declared
her the winner, and the time 2:10,
there was a universal uprising on the
grand tand. accompanied by huzzas
and the waving of handkerchiefs. A
gentleman states that on turning round
he saw a woman near him waving her
handkerchief with all her might; but
upon looking down he saw her baby
lying at her feet and beginning to cry.
