GROUND The long stretch of horse stalls, west of the grand stand at the fair grounds, "was burned to the ground last night and the damage will probably reach $2,500. The fire started shortly after 7 o'clock and when discovered by Charles Simpson, caretaker of the grounds, had gained such headway that it was impossible to check the flames. An alarm was turned in and the fire department responded, but owing to the long distance that had to be traveled, there was not much for the firemen to do after their arrival.

The long wooden shed, which was subdivided into stalls, burned like tinder. The wind was blowing in a direction which kept the lire from spreading to the new grand staid and this rtructure was not damaged. There were no horses in any of the stalls at the time. It is presumed that the fire was started by tramps, who went into one of the stalls for shelter. The loss is partially covered by insurance and it is probable that new buildings will be erected in time for the race meet-inK next summer and the fall fair.

AT THE THEATRES "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" Rnhcrt Louis Stevenson's weird story. "Dr. Jekyll and Mr.

Hyde," a favorite of theatre goers ror a great many years, was presented at the Ma jestic last night witn bawara waia mm the notpd fiprman-Enelish dra matist, assuming the difficult title role. Waldmann's interpretation of the mild-mannered, humane person age, Dr. jeKyii, wnn nis ngnming-like transformations to Mr. Hyde, the hideous, depraved monster were atnrflinelv real and handled in a manner highly commendable. The stnrv as dramatized especially for Mr.

TVaMmann. is in four making up a total of eight scenes depicting the various scenes of Hyde's crimes, Jekyll's own home and one or two street scenes in London. A very capable company surround Mr. Wald-mann in this, his first appearance in thio mnntrv anil it is evident that the ctomDanv live and breathe the very air of the most extraordinary settings or thev piay. Thii famous stnrv from the Den of Stevenson is familiar to most everybody and while one cannot assume that such a person as "Mr.

Hyde" ever existed, except in the imagination of Stevenson, yet the moral of the story is well worth a second thought, likewise the splendid manner in which Mr. Waldmann and his associates handled the lines of the story at last night's performance. C. P. R.

Gentlemen: Charges have been made against me for alleged misconduct as an Inspector of election at the primaries held last Monday. These charges are absolutely false and unfounded. I feel that my reputation as a citizen for many years in your city justifies me in asking suspension of judgment until I have had a chance to have my innocence vindicated in a court of law. In the meantime, I feel it but just and right that, until I have had a chance for such vindication, I should not act as an inspector of election at the coming election on Tuesday next. Accordingly I hereby decline to act and ask you to appoint someone in my "'ace.

(Signed) George Drought."
