WAUKEGAN.
ANNUAL FAIR.
Special Correspondence Qf The Tribune.
WAukEaAN, ILL.,, Aug. 19.-udging from the
extensive preparations which are already being
made for the Fair that is to be held in this city
in the latter part OF September, it bids fair to
be a SUCCESS. The Waukegan FAIRGROUNDS are
perhaps the most beautifully located OF any in
the State being but short distance from the
business portion Of the city. The streets leading
to and from the same are bordered with shade
trees, which present scene Of lovcliness, dec
Grated as they are with beautiful foliage When
you arrive at the grounds you there behold am
pic accommodations for anything and everything
that is to be exhibited; the large amphltheatre
constructed three years ago is capable OF
displaying to advantage any and all artl-
cles contained therein; the new agricultural
hall built last season is quite conmodioue and
convenient. As usual the races Will be one OF the
features in connection with the Fair. The track is
one half mile in length, and, at such times, is put
in excellent condition The large purses to be Of
fered will doubtless be the means Of bringing fast
horses from abroad to compete. This will be the
fourth Fair held in this city, and, although the
others were largely attended and greatly excelled
expectations, the preparations for the next bear
evidence that it will be attended with even greater
success.
