Cided a case against the Government in

THE TIDEWATRR FAM.
Successful MISUNDERSTANDING and
RunniDg Rnces

TAPPAHANNOCK, oct. Especial
The Tidewater Agricultural and Stock
Association Fair closed late to-day after
three days exhibition.
The first day, Wednesday, was a bright
day, and about twelve hundred sBecta OTIS
attended. In the ladies' department in
the Exhibition Hall was a display of art
necdle-wOrk Of all descriptions and a
thousand other pretty and useful articles
OF domestic skill. This was hy far the
most cTeltable Of all the departments.
The agricultural and stock display was
not such as II ought TO have been, yet
not poor at all.
The track was in fine order. and the
racing good. The stallion tTOttiug race
was won by Fred Downiug's "BedWOrtn' ,
NcDaniePs "Non BorcAc' second Dr.
W. Lewis Cannon BALI won under the
three-minute class.
The running race was very exciting as
five favOritcs entered for the threr-quar-
ters of q mile prize, but Willie Bernards
Brock beat with J. CtoNton's War
The second day about two thousand
visitors entered the grounds uOtWitn-
standing the heavy rain OF the forenoon,
and the racing after the rain ceased was
good, cOnSderiu- the condition Of the
track and the day closed IN interest with
a balloon ascension.
To-day the crowd was much larger than
any time previous and was estimated al
about twenty-five hundred persons.
The first thing Of interest was the Ia
dies driving and riding contest. I'm which
Miss Lucy krietc Of DuuusyIlie, got the
prize. Then came the baseball match
between the Walkertun and Tappahan-
mock clubs, the latter easily beating the
visitors.
The Fair was an entire success al
though the officers of III. association say
they know now how 20 do better next
time.
Colonel Whitehcad's address before the
Farmers Institute was regarded very
fine and appreciated by all the good
farmers who were present.
The order during the entire exhibition
was perfect, and nothing OF a disasreeable
character occurred.
