The County Fair closed Saturday evening, the attendance being the largest of the week. Mrs. Martha Wilson is requested to call at the Armory at 9 A. M. tomorrow to get fruit for distribution among the poor.

President Dakin had a speech prepared for the reception of county officials Thursday evening at the County Fair, but lost it in the crowd. On Saturday the speech was found and brought to the "Sentinel" office. As it would hardly be right to deprive our many readers of the pleasure of perusing the speech we publish it in full as follows: "Ladies and Gentlemen: My friend, Mr. McPherson, in speaking of me in connection with my duties during the Fair, kindly said that I was competent and experienced. Now it is barely pos- sible that I might be as the Irishman Tttver let onyez don't know any- thing, but let on yez do know all about But he who pleads guilty receives the clemency of his Judge, so I plead guilty of being a novice as regards the public duties of the office.

But I would like to express my heartfelt wishes for your enjoyment this evening. "I am especially pleased to see a number of new faces here this evening, indicative in a measure, perhaps, of the fact that the county is once more united into one agricultural district. I think that we all feel this as it should be, bringing together, as it should more minds and results, to the mutual benefit of all. We have an illustration of this fact on a grand scale in our own United States. I "The bringing together here of the independent minds of many countries 'is an important factor in placing her where she now stands the foremost Nation on the face of the earth.

Then, jtoo, if our County Fair continues to be a feature of her existence, we shall be privileged to form new friendships, thereby broadening our views and mak-ling life for the farmer more Interesting. I "As to our Invited guests this evening, I would say when a man is elected by a vote of the people to a public office he is placed in a position where the people feel privileged to criticize, thereby sometimes misconstruing his acts, so that he may in some cases feel it not altogether pleasant. "We wish this evening to give expression to our good will and appreciation, and I feel proud of being placed In a position to be able to extend to you on their behalf a most cordial welcome this evening." The following are additional awards: Gus Sanborn, of Watsonville, enter ed a box of immense Bellefleurs which recelved a first prize on size. One trace seed corn 1st, Dakin.

i 1 i 'i I I 1 I I G. D. Loucks has had his pension increased from $6 to $10. The footbridge above the covered bridge was washed out to sea Friday night. The rainfall for the season at Boulder Creek up to Friday night is 8.39 inches.

The rainfall for 24 hours up to 7 A. M. Saturday was 3.15 inches; for the season, 5.77. Other entertainments and the rain were too numerous for a great outpour of the people at the Fair. Read well the advertisement on i second' page, and remember the merchants can duplicate all these prizes.

There were only about twenty Santa Cruz Odd Fellows at the Golden Jubilee celebration in San Francisco. The Ladies' Working Band of M. E. Church have postponed the reception to the members of the church until Oct. 31.

On Saturday J. Rouhtree, aged six years, was shot in the stomach, at his home near Laurel. Died later. On Saturday the horses attached to D. D.

Wilder's milk wagon ran away on Pacfic causing the pole of the wagon to be broken. Mrs. Mary Rea, wife of Thos. Rea of Gilroy and mother of Supervisor Geo. E.

Rea and Jas. W. Rea of San Jose, died at Gilroy last week. The Santa Cruz High School football team will play the Los Gatos team in Los Gatos next Saturday, and the Salinas High School, here the following Saturday. The Y.

M. C. A. noon-day prayer-meetings are now held in the rooms of Dr. H.

C. Whiting, Hihn Block, cor. Lincoln St. and Pacific Av. from 12:30 to 1 o'clock, every day except Sunday.

E. B. Pixley, R. S. Miller and K.

Criletich collected $47 for the entertainment of the excursionists from San Francisco on Oct. 1st. After paying air of the expenses there was a balance of $3, which was donated Saturday to the town clock fund. Now that the Fair is over the question of procuring a lot and erecting a library building thereon is one worthy of consideration. In this line F.

A. Hihn, chairman of the only meeting held, has a word for the members of the two committees in existence. The jury in the R. March case failed to agree after being out nearly four hours Saturday evening. They stood 6 to 6.

On the first ballot the vote was 8 for acquittal to 4 for conviction. Eight ballots were taken. The case will probably now be dismissed. The Norte Dame Academy at Watsonville was presented Friday by Mrs. Moreland to the Sisters of Norte Dame of San Jose.

A reception was tendered them at the convent building by former graduates, residents of Watson-ville, after their arrival on the noon train. The academy is a beautiful modern structure and an ornament to the city of Watsonville. SOCIAL AND PERSONAL. F. W.

Emerson said: "There is at this moment for you an utterance brave and grand as that of the colossal chisel of Phidias, or the trowel of the Egyptians, or the pen of Moses or Dante, but different from all these."

Palmer. A series of one hundred questions In Physical Culture asked and answered by Prof. Moxey for the benefit of read-ere of the "Sentinel." 26. What is flesh and how does It differ from muscles, nerves, organs and fat? Flesh ia the lean meat necessary to the health of the body. It fills out the body to give beauty of form.

The muscles are used for action and are the engines of the body. The nerves are the wire system for conveying the vital force and mandates of the will throughout the body. Fat is a surplusage of grease that overlies the flesh, and, when present as an accumulation, denotes something wrong in the system or In its functions. 27. Why will the same exercise that reduces the fat of one person increase the flesh of another? Fat is due to the collection of fatty globules or cells.

The inactive muscles fill up with fatty globules and the only way these can be removed is by exercise and massage, which breaks down or collapses these cells, and then by drinking distilled water, which is the greatest absobent and eliminator of dead animal tissue. Avoid eating immediately before or after exercising. Eat only brain, nerve and muscle-making foods, avoiding the fat makers, good you will soon exchange your diseased tissue (fat) for life-giving flesh, good health and a perfect form. Leanness or shrunken flesh is due to lack of muscular nutrition. When persons eat plenty of good nutritious foods and drink plenty of water (without which corpulence could not be gained), and still remain lean, is because the blood does not assimilate the food, or that there is no exciting cause to distribute the nutrition in the blood.

Exercise is the only proper distributing agent, and systematic exercise means equal distribution. Eat immediately before exercising, but not violent, the latter Is always injurious, 28. How often does the entire body completely change itself, so that not a particle of the former material remains? The common belief is one in seven years, but it may change in a much shorter period. 29. In what way may a new body be built, and how may its progress be hastened? By exercise to tear down and destroy old tissue, and to attract new material.

It is hastened by proper food, drink, exercise, bathing, etc. If you exercise reasonably, the part of the body most used will renew itself in a year and less. If you do not exercise, the tissues will always decay before they die, and will become a splendid ground of fertile soil for any kind of disease that may come your way. 30. What is meant by elimination, and in how many ways does it occur? Elimination is the separation of all foreign and burnt out material from that which is useful, and disposing of it through the lungs, pores of the skin, kidneys and colon.

31. What effect has exercise on the muscles? Exercise tears down old tissue by wearing it out, gives a more vigorous circulation and respiration to supply the body with new material. When in use, any part of the body takes in more nourishment, and increases in size and strength. Muscles, especially, grow larger and stronger by use. 32.

What effect has exercise on the flesh? As the fleshy masses which constitute the body, are spongy, elastic, half liquid, and very movable; and also contains an elaborate system or network of conduits of blood, and inter-vascular fluid; also a net-work of muscles which constitute by far the greatest portion of the flesh; and the nerves pass and re-pass In every possible direction, we can easily see that exercise is necessary to keep it active and healthy by the process of living. 33. What relation has exercise to health? A distinguished writer said: "Health is the liniforra and regular performance of all the functions of the body, arising from the harmonious action of all its parts." Health and strength are not always identical. A person may have great strength in certain muscles, but really not have good health. I have seen athletes, blacksmiths and others who had enormous muscles but could not digest the simplest of foods.

Physical exercises should not have for its sole object the attainment of muscular strength. There are other tissues and organs in the body besides the muscular. The healthy action of the lungs, stomach and nervous system is far more important than great strength in the arms, legs, and a system of Physical Culture that promotes this action is of the highest excellence, for its aim is to produce just that development of the physical body upon which good health is permanently based. Some minds do not look far enough Into life to see this distinction, or to value it if seen; they fix their eyes longingly upon strength and seemingly care not for after results. This is the reason that the majority of athletes die prematurely of consumption, as history has shown repeatedly.

34. "What relation has food to exercise? The body Is an absorbing and distributing machine. Exercise is the distributing agent in the body. If the proper food ia not eaten it is starved even by the glutton. If the proper food is eaten and the blood does not absorb it, ill health surely follow.

If proper food is eatenandabsorbed.but not distributed, the body must suffer, and sickness must follow. These laws are absolute; and in them are found the explanation of many fatal maladies. Medicines may for a time scatter nutrition; but a terrible penalty must sooner or later be paid. 35. What is digestion? A NARROW ESCAPE.

Adventure of Harry Holg While At-j tempting to Cross Soquel Creek. Owing to the heavy rains in the mountains, Soquel Creek is booming, and almost buried beneath its waters, Harry Hoig, an employe of the Hihn Co. who trieditoforditnearSoquel.with Mr. Reanler's horse and buggy. 1 he bridge had just been removed Friday night for the winter, and Saturday morning, about 9 o'clock, Holg, not knowing the velocity of the creek at that point, tried to ford it, with the result that the buggy struck a log and upset throwing its occupant out into the water, and washing him, the horse and buggy down stream.

Alice Daubenbiss heard his cry for help and immediately ran into Soquel and notified Messrs. Ord, Brown and others, who hurried to the aid of the unfortunate. Soon the whole town was notified and one hundred people turned out, but, fortunately, Mr. Hoig had no use for help, so far as he was concerned, as he had caught a limb and pulled himself out of the water, but the horse and buggy were washed almost down to Capitola, the horse evidently swimming, for when found was only thoroughly drenched and not much worse for his watery experience. By aid of a knife and a rope Ernest Schellenger and Tom Ilickey extracted the horse and drew him up on dry land.

It is hoped this may be a lesson to all who attempt to ford mountain streams at this time of the year. BASEBALL. No More Games to be Played at Sac-; ramento This Seaaon. Chronicle: San Francisco has sixteen games to play, not including a tie game with Sacramento. Of these sixteen six are with Oakland, five with Sacramento and five with Cruz.

The Sacramentos have fourteen games to play, five of which are with San Francisco, five with Oakland and four with Santa Cruz. This makes it look like a very even struggle for the championship, and it is quite likely it will not be decided until the last day. The season will close with games here between the San Franciscos and Oak-lands and between the Santa Cruzans and the local team in Sacramento. The managers of the clubs have made a new deal this week and games will be played in San Francisco and Oakland only. The local magnates announce that baseball will be conducted on a much different plan next year, but they will not go into the details of their new plans.

As baseball has again been recognized as one of the most important sports in this city, the magnates say they intend to put it on a still better basis, but their plans have not assumed definite shape yet. It Is possible that midweek games on Thursday and Saturday in this city and Friday in Oakland may be tried as an experiment. From appearances Oakland will have an out-and-out team of its own next year, with Sunday afternoon games in this city. Manager Tuttle of Santa Cruz is still talking about his franchise and his right to own a club In next year's league, but his franchise calls for this year only. If the majority of the magnates reorganizing the league next year desire to allow Tuttle's franchise to be renewed they will do so.

If they do not care for him as a league manager, he will find that his list of reserved players belongs to the league, but not to his club. The National League clubs are bound together for ten years by a mutual contract, but at that it looks as if four of them will be thrown out by the other eight. The Califocnia League clubs are bound together for only one year, and, as the majority dropped out two during the season, there is no doubt that it can drop out still another between seasons. San Benito Advance: The editor of the Castroville Enterprise ia rearing upon his hind legs and roaring about Claus Spreckels polluting the Salinas river with the sewage of the big beet factory. In four-line pica he asks: "why some county official doesn't have the great Claus arrested?" In modest bourgeois, we would like to ask why our fire-eating journalistic friend doesn't do what is necessary himself.

Any citizen can swear to a complaint. If the beet factory is really polluting the river, an injunction can be obtained, and the matter remedied. Mc's wrath, however, is really funny. He says: "The people on the Cooper ranch are compelled to stop up keyholes and every crevice through which the sickening smell could penetrate, and even then many of them pass the hours, when they should be sleeping, in a state of deathly sickness and vomit-. lng." It might be worse, Mc.

Sup-I pose they stopped up the smells and passed the crevices through the deathly sleeping, or penetrated the sickening sickness through the vomiting keyholes and passed the smell through the hours, what would happen? SUPERIOR COURT NEWS. I SATURDAY. Estate of W. E. Emory A.

The plot of the latest farce, "Brown's Tw5" whi( wil1 be the attraction at the Opera House next Thursday evening, has to do with the dire troubles of Dick Preston, a son of a rich stock raiser, who marries the girl of his heart. He takes her away to a country cottage, and in order to con ceal his identity assumes the name of Brown. Mutual friends, however, accidentally discover their rustic retreat, Dick's father unexpectedly makes his appearance, and the unhappy boy leads him into the belief that Howard is Brown and Suzanne Mrs.

Brown, though, unfortunately for him, the genuine wife has meanwhile informed the unsuspecting old gentleman that she herself is Mrs. Brown, and the now irate parent jumps to the conclusion that Howard is a bigamist and double-eyed villain in general, and straightway makes preparation to leave the premises and take his son Dick with him. In sheer desperation the latter confesses the truth, and the eccentric old man, having during this time taken a great liking to Mrs. Dick, overcomes his extraordinary scruples and bestows the parental blessings. REVIEW OF THE CENTURIES.

The ninth century includes such names as Charlemagne and Alfred the Great. In this wonderful period we find the first king of all England-Egbert. Egbert's grandson Is Alfred, whom the English delight to call "England's darling." Under the leadership of Charlemagne, Western Europe is welded into one kingdom. The Pope in 800 crowns him Emperor. The Franks become the defenders of Christianity and the Pope.
