ST. GAINESVILLE, September Is.
The Belmont County Fair to-day is
a disappointment, 70 far as the attend
auce is concerned. The crowd here is
not over one-iJurth as large as the cor
responding day OF last year. The dis.
play in most OF the departments is only
ordinary. The exhibit Of stock is about
an average. The agricultural depart.
ment is as good as could be expected
this ~unfavOrable season. The exhibit
in Floral Hall is inferior. There is a
good display OF poultry. The machin-
cry exhibit Is small. The wind to Jay
has caused plenty o: dust to abound,
but there is pIenty OF shade and water.
Taken altogether to-day has not been a
very favorable one for the Fair Associa.
ton.
Tomorrow will be the big day OF the
far, and if the weather is favorable there
will no doubt be a good attendance. III
the wind eases there will be nathing to
detract from the comfort and pleasure
Of the people who come.
The balloon ascension did not come of
to-day because OF the strong wind that
prevailed. The ascension will take place
to morrow afternoon.
The racing is good, and as usual is
monopolizing the attention OF the crowd.
1t is impossible to give the result OF the
races, on account Of the early hour at
which the afternoon mail closes.

..THE STORY OF A FACE"
Lecture by Rev. J. B. Mulford. Of the
First Baptist Church, Last Night.

Rev. J. B. Milford, pastor Of the First
Baptist Church, lectured to a very in
teliigent audience last night on the sub
ject which forms the caption Of this no.
tice. The lecture was a literary treat in
reality, and one to which an audience is
not called to enjoy many times in u
year. The faces Of noted persons OF his
tory were described in a very attractive
manner-the appearance, the express
sion the beauty or responsiveness Of each,
"the soul fullness of the eyes" "the in
tellectuality OF the forehead" and the
distinguished joints OF the face of
Cicero, Socrates. and other prominent
historical personages described charm.
ipgly. We are sorry that the crowded
condition of our columns this morning
precludes the possibility Of a more ex.
tended notice, as the lecture is worthy
OF a verbatim reproduction.

The difficulties about raising fine horses in
IL 9 South just now are not ii the climate or
IN the food for the horses, but simply in the
large monn OF capital required to procure
the stock from which to breed. The naln,v
days Of Mississippi's wealth have been OBJ
scured' and new fortunes have to be built.
90, too, we have q beginning again to make
IN the cultivation of fine racing stock. The
sooner our stock ralsers begin it, the more
rapidly will they find the mine Of wealth if
covers. The scrub, when fed and pampered
TOR three or four years, is sold with difficulty
az 9 low flgere, while the colt Of a recognized
ancestry is eagerly snapped up at a high
price.
There is q large field before those Of the
South who will undertake the raising Of race
horses, If they are careful to go into the bus
mess p%rudentlY. It is the most paying
branch of stock raising, as is shown BY the
recent sales of racing stock, and the large
and increasing demand for fne-blooded and
Well-descended colts.
