THIEVES BREAK INT() STORE
` OF W. W.: T !..MAN -
.Sometime during Thursday eve-
ning of last week thieves'broke into
'the store of W. W. Tam an•and help-
ed themselves to, a number of arti-:
'cies of men's wearing -apparel. They
gained admission.. through a cellar.
window and came up through a trap
door. Among tlie' missing` articles
were some silk shirts, several ex-
pensive ties, gloves, and two or three
overcoats. The show cases were rifled
and other articles taken, it being
difficult to knowu
1 st what was
taken. The thieves left: by the back
door. No suspicion `was aroused un-
til the shop was opened- the follow-
ing morning. Constable Whitesides
was immediately communicated with
but -there is little clue to work on. It
is thought that possibly some . party
ox their way home from London had
stopped off and outfitted themselves.
DIED IN LONDON ;HOSPITAL.
Mrs. Albert H2stings pased away
on Saturday at St Joseph's hospital,
London, following an'illness of about
amouth.The deceased

London about two'' weeks ,ago where
she underwent an, operation. It was
ht'at the time that1
thout her c lances
for recovery were not very promising
although no one expected the end
was so near. Mrs:' I-Iastings' maiden
name was Alvaretta=Essery. She was
born on London Road south on Mar.
31, 1863, and her. Whole life, has been
spent iii :this con niiiitit

branches bf church work and also
of the town. She was one of the fore-
most workers in the Women's Insti-
tute and took a leading part -in Red
Cross work during, the, war. Her
place in the community will be hard
to fill. Besides her bereaved hue-
band,;\who for several nionths has
been in very poor health, she'iS'sur-
vived by one daughter, Lulu: ' Two`.

Best Fair in Years
Everyone seemed to be, perfectly
delighted' with the Exe er Fair on
Tuesday.Ex-
hibits!
Great Fair! S� lendid. .Ln
p
hibits! Best in Years! were the re-
marks that were frequently heard.
It is- esti
m'rted that? over live thou-
sand people : passed - through the
gates. The weather, while . -a little
dull and threatening rain;' earlier in
the day, did not keep the • people
from coming to town -from miles a-
round, and automobiles by the hun-
dreds 'packed the grounds,; or the
streets, leading to the •fair. grounds.
The gate receiptswere just a trifle
under ,thatpf last.'year: The qual-
.ity of the exhibits in all,lines was
of a high standard. The number of
booths and amusement stands on
the grounds was tlie..largest in many
years. The horse races proved a good
;attraction. to many and were keenly
contested, the purses proving very
attractive. The Exeter Band 'furnish-
ed eStcellent music.
On entering the palace one of the
first things to greet the eye was the
gorgeous exhibit of flowers and
plants. Seldom has there been any-
thing to equal ,it: The school chil-
dren's exhibit is a feature that is be-
coming More popular andthe exhib-
its were• of a -high order. There was
a ,fair showing of roots and vege-
tables\The'showing of fruits was a
little light. In the fancy work de-
partment there was a good showing
of sorne very superior work , that
was •subjectedto some close scrutiny
by the ladies. The work of art that
was=`on exhibit • displayed some very
iare�talefit and ca,oie in "for; favor-

In the show rings there was some
keen competition in the different
classes for horses. To the levers of
horseflesh there was something here
to meet their fancy as no finer ani-
mals are. shown • anewhere. ,Many of
=the olassesa`wei e well `filledTheeeh.me
aright be said`'for the quality of the
cattle, although;, the showing was
light. There were more sheep on ex-
hibition than 'there has been for
many years.
Perhaps the biggest showing in
any one class was he the poultry..
Judge McLeod admitted having his
hands full. One man could not prop-
erly judge it in an afternoon, he
said. Several in towns have taken a
fancy to poultry raising and there.
was a rare showing of choice birds.
There was a concert in the Opera.

being well attended.
