tho fair was much increased, the attend
ance of the democratic state candidates be-
ing a drawing card. After bountiful din
ner, prepared by the officers of the society,
Mr.. Hurst and his colleagues spent the
balance of the evening in a stroll through
the grounds, at each point receiving
marked attention. At about o'clock the
party took carriages for the station, going
thence to Baltimore. Several efforts were
made to induce the party to talk upon the
subject of the political situation in the
state, but all that could be elected was
!! that they were satisfied with the outlook.
The races were advertised to commence
at 1890 Pm, but 1t was o'clock before
any of the horses started, much to the dis
appointment of the large crowd that sur
rounded the track. When at last started
the contest in the several heats was fully
up to that of previous years. The follow
ing is summary of the contests Of speed:
