SUMMARY OF THE RACES
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.

ROCKVILLE, Nd, September 3. - The
bracing September air this morning was an
invitation not to be disregarded by the pat
rons of the agricultural fair, and to this
call they responded in good style and in
great numbers. The great crowd of pat
tons yesterday was supposed by the man.
ayers to indicate that today the attendance
would fall off in a large degree. but in this
they were agreeably disappointed. By 10
clock there was a large crowd on the
grounds, and after II o'clock very many
vehicles came in, bearing their living
freight to witness the exciting races of the
afternoon.
For some years there has been complaint
among certain classes in regard to the
character of side shows which have been
allowed space in the grounds, but this time
&c wall of complaint has been heard from
any quarter DIS the managers have been
very particular in regard to the character
oil the exhibitions. The. small stands for
the cane prizes, and other classes of amuse-
ments of that kind. have been admitted
Dut all descriptions of skin games have
been excluded. although big money was Of
fered for the privileges
County candidates for the various offices
rave taken advantage of the comparative
quiet OF the last day of the fair, and have
been on hand in full force getting in their
work.
