THE WORLDS FAIR.
Sunday Attendance Was Very Meagre.
Workingmen Did Not Turn Out.

CHICAGO, June 25.--The radical
Sunday openers must have be n riev.
ously disappointed at the small num-
Der of people who visited the Worlds
Fair today, The total admissions, free
and paid, were scarcely 10000, and the
winding paths and broad thorough
fares of the White city had deserted
appearance. There was little music to
speak of and the whole aspect of the
fair was as calm, peaceful and Sab
bath like as a New England country
village. Even Midway Plaisance was
duh. The fine arts building was the
only place where there was anything
like crowd. Workingmen and their
families did not turn ont as on the
previous open Sunday. The fact that
the United States government build
ing and all United States exhibits
were closed on Sunday, as are also
those of Great Britain, seems to have
given the wage workers the idea that
they were not getting their moneys
worth. Then, too, the machinery was
all stopped and many individual ex-
hibitors hung up curtains Sunday, so
a great deal of the exhibition was
closed, Notwithstanding the gates were
open. The statute of Hon. VIM. Il.
Gladstone was unveiled in Donegal
castle at Mrs. Ernest Hart's village to-
day,

pleted the journey yesterday. The
first part of the race he staked his
horses out and slept outdoors. In an
Iowa town he stopped to see circus
and amused the spectators by riding
the trick mule. He has never
worn a coat since lie started
His son was entered for the race, but

Although Berry, who is an engineer
and surveyor for the Etkhorn valley
road, was the first to arrive, 1t Is not
likely he will be awarded the SloOo
prize offered by the citizens OF Chad'
ron, as he rode under protest, having
made a map of the route. Besides THIS
prize Col. Cody will distribute $5O0
among the first three arriving. The
Berry matter will be settled by the
Chadron committee and the riders
themselves.
The race was started at Chadron
June 13 at $40, thus making the time
of the race for the leaders few hours
less tran IA days. The distance is
computed at 973 miles, but the riders
claim they rode much farther by rea-
son of losing their way.
Those who started in the race and
their horses were: Emmett Albright,
on Outlaw and Joe Bush; j. H. Stew,
ems (Rattlesnake Pete) on General
Grant and Nick; Slego A.

was received from Jones and Stevens
protesting against giving the four
men who arrived a place.

no signs of yielding, but as fast al

the Engineer Refused 10 Stop.

special to The Statesman.
DENIsoN, June 24.-Another unsuc-
cessful attempt was made last night
to hold up tn 3 southbourd Katy train
at Stringtown. 1t is thought the
gang was the same which fired into
the train Wednesday night. The train
last night was heavily guarded and
orders were received not to stop at
Stringtown under any consideration,
as a crowd of rough looking men
had been seen lurking about all
day. The train came through
Stringtown at the rate of 35 miles
per hour. Scarcely had she passed the
depot when they were greeted with a
perfect fnsilade of bullets. Most of
these took effect in the smoker and
char car. Fortunately no one was
hurt. The train stopped some ois'
tance below aud guards returned to
stringtown on foot. Several negroes
were met coming down the track and
we're arrested. No one else was seen
