The feature of the second heat was that

Tobasco was the favorite in the pool box
in the first heat. The field paid heavy
odds, and this was the first evidence that
there was any money around. There was
considerable interest shown by the fellows
looking after the money, and also the
average spectator was watching the scor-

getting a start, but at the word Blaze

large crowd on hand it was successful in a
financial way which is, no doubt, an inter
esting fact to the Association and many
others concerned and interested.
The first day of the county fair lat fall
showed an attendance that left in the cash
box for tickets, S167, and that was cOnsid-
cred clever start. The receipts for tick
cts yesterday amounted to S644, and come
at the rate of 25 cents per ticket and from
this statement of facts, the paying attend
ance can be determined by the application
of little mathematics. The usual Gus
tom in fair bOoms is to estimate crowds
from 10000 to 10000 when possibly not one
twentieth that many were present. By
way Of a change in the interest of variety
and the truth. the exact facts are given,
which may prove more satisfactory TO the
reader seeking fair news. There were 9, 544
people on the fair grounds yesterday who
paid for their presence. In addition to
this number there were many, who, owing
to their assistance TO the association in
many ways were given complimentaries.
This including classes of exhibitors and
people in the many departments The
average number of comps" given out by
n fair of the dimensions of the Southern
Kansas fair is about 500, and as a rule
those holding comps" are present, which
would on calculation make the crowd of
yesterday 5000, which for the first day far
exceeded the expectations of any one.
There was one thing most conspicuous
in the attendance: the majority of those
present did not belong to Wichita or
Sedgwick county. They were from sur
rounding towns and counties. They were
mainly from the great southwestern
part of the state and the
Arkansas and Walnut river valleys.
There was a sprinkling from Denver and
Pueblo and other Colorado points; some

James NJ. Blossom came in to. day
from Rocky Bar, with the intention
of making somewhat protracted
stay here.
He says that an English company
is spending considerable money in
sinking Oh some mining property
there, and it it succeeds in striking
another chute of pay ore, Rocky Bar
will agai" boom, as Of yore.
There is abou. six feet of snow on
a level in and around Rocky Bar, with
eight feet or more in the mountains
in the immediate vicinity. There is
every probability that the Boise val
ley will this spring DE visired ty tire
greatest flood seen there since the
FIRST settlement of the country. Tie
Boise river will probably cut one or
more new channels, unless the citizens
of the valley take energetic steps to
protect the mselyes and their property
from the coming rush of waters.
