Minnesota State Fair Races.

We desire to remind drivers and owners
of horses that entries for the speed events
as The state fair to be held at Owatonna,
Sept. 3, 4, 5, and Z, close Wednesday
next, Aug. 1, at which time the horses must
be named,and 215 per cent. of the entrance
fes of 10 per cent. be paid. The second
inssallment of 2115 per cent. will be due
and must be paid to retain the entry, Sat-
arday, Aug. 25, and the remaining per
Gent. by 8 o'clock of the evening pre-
SsdIng the race, at the Office of the secre-
tRgy on the grounds. The printed pro-
graumes contain an unfortunate error in
relation to the closing of entries, designat-
ing Monday August 1st, ,"as the date of clos,
ing and Saturday, August 21st," as the time
for the second payment. AS neither Mon
day Or Saturday come on the dates,men-
Goned, the error will be readily seen. The
sime intended by the society is Wednesday,
Asg. 1st, for the closing, and Saturday.
Aug 18th, for the second installment.
For the benefit of all we republish the
programme:
First day, Monday, September 8: 2:45
class, purse 5000.
Second day, Tuesday, September 4: 2:4O
class, purse $3.50; 800 class, 5000; two
year-old class, $3.50.
Third day, Wednesday, September 5:
PIG class, purse $500; four-year- olds and
under, 5000; free to all PAGERS, 5000.

IN state in 1889, purse $500; 2:36 class,
500.
Fifth day, Friday, September 7: Double
team class, trotters or PAGERS, purse 5000;
frse to all trotters, $500.
This is a very attractive programme,
arranged especially for the benefit of Min
nesota breeders and owners of trotting and
pacing stock, who should see that all the
classes fill largely. 1t should not be un-
asEstood, however, that outsiders are not
wanted. The more the merrier. But the
first aim of the society was to encourage
and foster the state breeding interests, and
at the same time afford visitors to the fair
