AFFORD GOOD SPORT. A Iku.’.ed Account of the Cvabsts—A Glance at Some of the Departments—The B.g Programme for To-Day. Tin* State Fair was in tin** shape yes terday, and had the day been a brighter one, and the thermometer a little high er, there would have been very general satisfaction on the part of those In at tendance. As it was, the sky threatened rain all morning, and the air was dampand raw, making light overcoats and wraps very comfortable throughout the entire day. People contemplating visiting the grounds were deterred by the prospect that the day would end in a shower, but fortunately the threatened storm did not appear, and allowed the racing pro gramme to comeolT. while the inspection of exhibits in the several departments was uot seriously interfered with. The attendance was very good, con sidering all the drawbacks, and to-day, with the entire Fair in complete shape, and a great racing programme, with <1,100 iu premiums, there ought to be ten thousand admissions. Tin: rorLTKY suovv. PLYMOUTH IIU KS. A Uk«.istkk reporter made a tour of this department of tie- Fair y« >terday, and found it iu anexceedingly satisfac torv >tate. both as regards number and variety of fowls. Some of the exhibit* orshave some splendid specimens of all the best-known breeds, and among tin* live hundred or more chickens, ducks, turkeys, geese, etc., those taking an in terest in fowls are sure to find a number of tine birds. There are many fine spec imens of Asiatics, while the Plymouth Koeks, Ijeghorus. etc., are represented !by large and fine fowls. The entries of .ducks and geese are also well worth in spection. and in the same department area number of small animals of vari |ous sorts. The display iu this depart ment, as a whole, is among the largest . ver seen at a fair, exception being made of the big year, along about 1"7. when tlo re was something like fourteen I or fifteen hundred entries in the poul try department. The judges were busy among the fowls yesterday awarding premiums. IX UAfUIXKUY IIALL. This department, sacred to farm ma chinery. was one of the centres of at traction yesterday. although it was not the day upon which the largest attend ance of farmers wasexpected The entire space allotted by the Association to farm tua< blurry and impleuicmcnts was nut only occupied, but various machines drifttnl over along the outskirts of the Poultry Department, and up along the side of the Main building.

Every exhibit has from one to f . nr men in attendance, and literature 1 is furnished, questions answered, explanations and illustrations given, and all possible information supplied w illingly to all who route along. Two or three agricultural journals are rep resented on the grounds, and this por tion of the enclosure Is especially inter esting to farmers. Flint' AM* FAIt.M PI|o|*l « 1>.

There are two or three very flno display s of honey, both In the comb and strained, and taken altogether, this de partment is full of Interest. In the same building is to be found tho department devoted to jellies, pre serves. pieties, and other evidences of tin 'kill and industry of the house wife, ami Immediatly adjoining Is a fine dis play of bread, cakes, etc. The ladies w, re in a flutter of cxeitemeut alnuit this class of exhibits yesterday, and the Banner la which some of the Judges dipped into tlte cakes showed that they had a keen appreciation for the good thing' of life, as well as wide experi ence in awarding Fair prizes to the most deserving. vv ox ritK oisot xt>s.

He was killed instantly. A sad feature of the affair is that Kelly was the father of Dominick Kelly, one of the young men injured in the B. <& O. wreck at Littleton Monday morning, and had gotten off the train to go see his wounded boy.

THE CITY COUNCIL DISPOSES OF ITS BUSINESS IN A HURRY. An Ordinance Rechanging the Boundaries of the Various Wards Presented—Other Im portant City Matters. City Council met In regular session last evening and disposed of a great deal of business. Both branches had quorums at a reasonably early hour, and the business was pushed through with a re freshing despatch. President (irttso was in ids seat In | the Second Branch and Mayor Sea bright presided in the First. I he most important matter perhaps i that came up before the Second ! Branch was the introduction of “An ordinance to revive and reordain an ordinance entitled ‘An ordinance lu relation to the division of the city of Wheeling into wards, and the number and apportionment of the members of the Council of the said city,’ passed No vember 28th, 1882; and to repeal an or dinance entitled ‘An ordinance in rela tion to the division of the city of W heel ing into wards, and the number and the apportionment of the members of the Council of tlu* said city, passed Novem ber 28, 1882." This was it. conformity with a resolu tion adopted by Council some time since instructing City Solicitor White to draft such an ordinance. The ordinance changes the boundaries of the various wards back to exactly what they were before the last Republican Council made its famous gerrymander, cutting the wards up into what they thought was suitable shape for their own purposes. The new ordinance gives the same number of Coun cilmen in each ward that the ordi nance then in existence gave. The or dinance was read'for the first time and Craig objecting, it went over under the rules. Tho following communication iroru Health Ofliccr Garrison, was read: To the Honorable Mayor ami Council of the Citll of Wheeling: Gknti.kmen: It again becomes my duty to report to your honorable body that the Garbage contractor continues to violate] the conditions of his contract with the city. < From the information which I have, I do not believe that there is a single clause of said contract which he has not violated, j At a meeting of the Committee of Health held on the 29th of August, a resolution was adopted requiring ‘the Health Officer to keep within the limits of the appropriation.’ As the amount of two hundred dollars, the sum appropriated for inspecting, and serv ing notices for tho abatement of nuisances, had already been expended, ull such work is necessarily slop|ied. There remains a great deal of such work to be done, besides the work of cleaning up for next summer should be commenced now. Nothing can be done in this direction until such time as your honorable body shall make au appro priation for the purpose, or direct your Health Officer to continue the work. There was a good deal of discussion over the communication, and it was finally decided to refer the part re lating to the appropriation to the Finance Committee, and by resolution the Health Officer was instructed to prosecute tint contractor for any failure to conform with the terms of his con tract. Hr. Garrison, at request of the body, made a statement in which he saiti he would have at least 100 complaints against the contractor in Police Court. During his remarks he <aid that several times he ltud lodged complaints against the contractor, and the Mayor had dismissed them, when it was proven that the contract had been violated. An ordinance granting the flrtn of John G. Hoffman /i Sons and the River side Iron Company right to construct and maintain a switch on Water street and across Twenty-fourth street to reach their several establishments, which was passed by the Fir-t Branch, was read and concurred in.
