Dover, Oct. s. The Delaware State
Fair was brought to a close Yesterday
afternoon after a successful week from
a financial standpoint. 1t is true that
the fair has not been up to the stand
ard OF former years but it is thought
that the association is now in position
to give q much better exhibition next
year. The only attraction yesterday
was the two races. The first one was
won by Daisy with ease. The pacing
race resulted in surprise. Reddy
Clay won the first two heats easy, but
broke in the third heat and allowed
Lucy Ashley to win. In the fourth
and fifth heats she did the same thing
and Lucy Ashley captured the race.
The two horses were well matched and
would be side and side for almost
three-quarters OF mile when Reddy
Clay would break, Summary:
