The fourth day Of the Fair commenced un-
ler the most 1sttcring auspices. The early
morning trains from the rural districts came

just fresh enough to straighten the
aags and compensate for the solar ardor which
otherwise would have been oppressive. Quito

delegates to the PacIdc Railroad Convention
The deficit was owing probably to the fact
that the rnorniPg exercises Of draft horses,
Walking horses and sucking colts, we're Of q
nature Interesting only to breeders and those
v ho make horses study. There Was every
thing Of interest, however, and the exercises

During the FORENOON, Mra. Lockwood, OF
Budan visited the Executive Committee. Il
will be remembered she is the lady who, upou
the day previous created quite furore Of e2-
citement by her Indignation at the award Of
the Committee upon the lady equeetrfans, and

horse. Before the Committee yesterday,
however, she alleged that the tearing
operations we're performed by her geu>l--
manly attendant. Size expressed desire to
have another trial, stating that she had had an
interview with the third iady, and the latter
had expressed her assent to the arrangement.
We believe she also proposed to the commit
tee to ride her OWN horse the flrst tlme, and On
the second time exchange with Miss Morgan.
TIE committee made 10 decision, but ap-
pointed another interview IL the afternoon.
