THE FAIR.
PREMIUMS AWARDED.
The Enterprise Fair, Sept. 14th to 17th, went off in good style and was a grand success, notwithstanding the inclement weather. The attendance on Thursday was fair, and on Friday it was very large, probably 6,000 people were in attendance. The exhibition was full and complete in all departments, the entries aggregating 1,334. The people were quiet and orderly and the gamblers and bummers were about the only persons that did not appear happy. The races were closely contested and exciting. The Ladies’ Departments, as well as Live Stock, had much attraction for the many sightseers. The following synopsis shows who received premiums:
