Especial Telegram to the Globe
HAsTINGs,Sept. IA. Though there were no
special attractions, such as the attendance
of live governor and a dead U. S. sena-
tor, the attendance upon the third day of
the Union Industrial Exposition was better
by several hundred than of any preceding
day. The increased attendance came
from the farmers and stock breed
ers of Dakota county, who by their
enterprise and iberality have made such
an exhibition as the present possible. An
especial attraction to this class, was the
CATTLE EXHIBIT,
parade of which was made in front Of
the grand stand, at 2:3O p. m. after the
first heat in the 2:29 trotting class. AS
the stock passed in review, Hon. John F.
Norrish, president of the association,
called attention to the exhibits. Leading
the cavalcade, was the herd of G. A.
De Graft of the Lake Elysian
stock farm, with the big grade steers
before mentioned, followed by the herd of
H. Brown of Minneapolis and others, the
whole making fine display.
