brilliant one and the Syracuse team
gave fine exhibition OF uphill work in
the face of big odds. Providence
started in at its old familiar
game OF crushing its opponents at the
beginning by making runs enough to
break the hearts of the other fellows.
Syracuse, however, was fighting for the
second place in the championship race,
and they crept steadily up toward
the score OF the Grays. They made
q brilliant squirt in the seventh inning
that made 1t possible to win IL Murray's
aggregation of stars should slip up but
the league leaders never slipped and the
Syracuseans were beaten tot
Bassett was absent and Lyons played
third base good enough for anyone, while
McAuiey played in center field like a vet-
eran. Every member on the home team
played without error. Syracuse pu. up a
game that resembled the Grays in all the
essen tials of professional play. Score:

This is the last day of the Kent County
Fair and 1t promises to surpass all the
previous days in the number which will
pass the gates to take in the sights and
especially the bicycle races. There is
large list of entries and some of the very
fastest men IN New England will COM
pete for the valuable prizes. Entries have
been received from nearly every State in
the country. The Pawtuxet Valley
Wheemen from their energetic President,
Fred Z. Nicholas down, have spared no
pains to make this tourna-
ment grand success, and with
the other attractions, too numerous to
mention, this will undou btedly be the gala
day of the fair il not spoiled by the
threatening rain. The exhibits in oil the
departments surpass all records OF pre-
vious years and the great success which
has crowned the efforts of the management
is doubtless very encouraging To them.
The Hon. Henry l.. Greene and those as
socialed with him have spared neither
time nor means to make this fair
eclipse all previous records and The
NEWS congratulates them on the gratify-
ing and successful issue OF their labors.
The weather has been all that could be
desired up to today and although a brisk
shower Is in progress, 1t is not believed
that it will interfere with the races at all.
Kent County Fair has become an estab-
lisbed institution in the Pawtuxet Val
ley. All it's residents are interested in IL
and proud OF it, and its reputation is not
merely local but widespread.
THE NEWS recognizes an Organization
of this kind not merely on account
OF the entertainment and pleasure
it affords, but in its higher sense as an ed
ucator and instructor where art, science
and skill in manufacture and agriculture,
where the work of head and hands COM
bined is exhibited in competition.
This has been the best year the fair has
yet had both in the number and quality
of its exhibits as well as in the attractions
offered and the attendance on ( he grounds,
and while We again congratulate the
management on their success we predict
even greater things of Kent County Fair
in the years to come.
