At the Fair Today.

The crowd at the grounds today was
larger than on any proceeding day, and
a great deal of interest was taken in the
races. Pools sold readily on the trotting
and pacing race, which was between
Meteor, Allen S. and Leland w.
The first heat was doubtful for a time,
but Schilling's Leland w. broke and
ran almost the last half mile. This left
the contest between Meteor and Allen
S., and the former won by his own
length in :3S1a. The second heat was
closer than the first, and Leland W.,
who, by the way, is but young horse,
did very pretty work and broke but
once during the race. This was also
won by Meteor in "a.
In the third heat the little PAGER,
Allen S.. tripped on the start, which
cansed him to break and lose ground,
but he gained gradually, and though
the race was very close, the judges de-
clded in favor of the PAGER.
AS another heat had to be run, the
reporter could not wait for the decision

THE VIRTUE MINE ACCIDENT
;oroners Jury Decided Maddox Death
Was Accidental.

Further particulars of the explosion
of dynamite in the Virtue mine, in Ba-
ker county, last Saturday, when James
P. Maddox was killed, are to the effect
that James Mackintoshe's leg was bro
ken. Mr.. Maddox was not instantly
killed by the explosion, as is explained
>by the miner who went with him to the
giant powder magazine. Joseph T.
Higgins and James P. Maddox, the ac-
cident's victims, went to the magazine
in which there was from twenty-five to
one hundred pounds of explosive, and
were there for the purpose of getting
powder and making primers. Maddox
candle was put on a shelf and he was
cutting some fuse, when the candle.
which was IN an improvised wire stick,
fell and the blaze instantly ignited the
powder.
Both Maddox and Higgins tried at
first to put out the blazing candle, and
as they could not do so, the latter picked
up box of giant powder and ran TWEEN
ty feet with it. Higgins ran on in the
dark and heard at first two light explo-
sions, at if caused by two sticks of pow
der. After he heard the first blast he
ran about 200 feet, when he was knocked
down by terrific explosion and crawl
ed on his hands and knees to the station,
where he remained with his head COW
cred with his jacket to keep from emoth-
ering from the gas, until he was rescued
by Messrs. Comstock and Hennesy.
Mr.. Hennesy states that he heard the
explosion while he was at work in the
mine and went directly to the scene
with Mr.. Comstock, finding the unfor-
tunate Maddox about 200 feet from the
magazine. Maddox, who was covered
with rubbish from the explosion, was
carried to the surface by the above men
and others, and lived for about one hour
from the time he was found. His death
was caused by frlghtful injuries and
bruises on the back of his head, necl
and back, and did not revover con
sciousness,.
The coroner's jury decided that Mad
dox' death was caused purely by acci-
dent.

Yesterdays Races.

The prettiest race that has ever been

In the first heat Pathmount won, but
had nothing to spare, as Deceiver was
close by the brown stallion's side when
they passed under the wire. The second
heat was very close from beginning to
end, but after the last quarter pole was
passed, Deceiver worked ahead and came
out half neck length in the lead. The
next two heats were taken by Path
mount, which entitled him to first
money and the honor of having lowered
the track record 219 seconds. Deceiver
took second prize.
