BRUSSELS, ONTARIO, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1892
BLUEVALE'S SHOW.
The annual fall allow took plane on
Saturday, October 15th. It was a de.
aided euaoese in every respect. The ef-
forts of the managers were crowned with
success in every sense of the term and
everyone went away feeling satisfied that
they had got the worth of their money.
This show is the outoome of enterprise
only. The 13luevale boys took it in hand
4 years ago and every year it has in-
areaeed over 50 per cent. However this
ie the first year the managers have been
able to give suitable prizes. This year
the plaoe was found to be far too small
to accommodate the large crowd that
thronged the ticket office to secure
tickets. It was inadequate to supply the
room necessary for a good display of
painting, fancy work, dairy produce, eon.
silting of butter and cheese, hens,
turkeys, geese, ducks, pigeons, rabbits,
vegetables, etc. The exhibit of horses
and sows was excellent while those of
the canine kind was fairly represented.
In the baby :how the competition was so
keen that the judges were unable to tell
which was No 1 baby so they gave the
prize to the mother. Excellent muaio
was furnished by Mies Annie Stowe, A
Graig and W H Stewart. A half dozen
disguised boys played a few humpty
dampty and Punch and Judy trioks. Mr.
Craig, our genial wagon maker, had an
excellent exhibit on the grounds. Robb.
MoPhereon, Huron County's harness
maker, had some harness on exhibition.
Geo. McDonald, the gentleman who
succeeded in taking let prize for cheese
at the London exhibition had au exhibit
of his celebrated cheese. Atter the ex-
hibition a game of foot ball was indulged
in by the lovers of that manly game.
Also some horse racing by some of Blue -
vale's fastest horses. As this was not on
the bills no prize was given. In all
shoat $33 will be given in prizes lees the
expenses. The inclemency of the
weather no doubt caused many to stay
in doors who otherwise would have at.
tended and witnessed ono of Bluovale's

timely and vigorous ringing of the fee -
tory bell, and a large number of half

peoting to find the plaoe on fire. It
seems that Mr, Truax wanted to take the
early train that morning and told the
nighbwatohman, Jerry Bolden, to ring
the bell at G o'clock. Mr. Truax meant
the door bell, but as the particular bell
had not been specified, Jerry quite
naturally pulled the rope of the factory
bell. It proved a very efsotive alarm,
