Performers
Sides and Vann gave an exhibition of
sparring as one of the attractions. Chief
Early got down his trusty lariat, and
showed the boys how it is done out West,
giving some of the most popular of the
tricks and tying stunts.
The thrilling “Rescue of Liza Ann,”
in which Liza was fortunate enough to
escape with her life and not much else
concluded the performance.
After this came the concert. The
three hundred or more people who re
mained for this (it was eleven o’clock
when the concert started) were well
repaid. Good instrumental numbers,
minstrel parts, and vaudeville sketches
made up a most attractive program.
In describing the parade, the “streets
of Cairo,” and “the Big Show,” the
antics of the clowns are not included.
They couldn’t be, for there were clowns
galore: comical looking, solemn, sad look
ing, long, short, fat and lean, male and
female. They were good—very good, and
every person present knew that they
had seen a real circus, albeit a local
talent one, strictly.—A/imaWe News.
“Our Fair will be held October 7, 8,
9, and 10. Surry County Fair is the
week previous to ours. Greensboro Fair
is the week after ours. We want to
secure a Brass Band of from twelve to
fifteen pieces, to furnish our music for
the three occasions. Is your organiza-
t.on in a posit.on to do so? If you are.
submit me a price, you paying all ex
penses. An immediate reply to this will
be appreciated.”
This gentleman in all probability was
present when we made our debut on
Labor Day, and we must have made a
favorable impression in order to get an
inqu.iy like this. Since this engagement
means that the band would be away from
home three weeks, it was deemed advis
able not to bid for this particular job,
Coost the Dand, friends, and if you
know of any musicians who would like
to join us refer them to R, V. Richards,
President of the Band Association,
F. A. Cummings, Welfare Director.

Fire at Gold Hill Dairy
Between eleven and twelve o’clock on
Wednesday, the seventeenth, a fire
destroyed the new and old cow barn,
calf shed, chlorination building, poppet
head over the deepest mine shaft, and
machine shed at the Gold Hill Dairy.
The origin of the fire is supposed to
have been due to a steam engine used
in running the ensilage cutter, but the
true source is not known, as the entire
roof of the big barn was in a blaze
before the fire was discovered. Fortun
ately, there was very little hay in the
barn, and the cows were all in the
pasture. Due to the extreme dryness of
all the buildings, and a bri.sk wind, it
took but a short time to burn all to the
ground.
