The State Fair This year.

~ A private letter from Secretary Ran
dali of the State Fair states that the
prospect for a great show at the State
Fair has never been better. While the
managers keep in mind that the show is
practical and educational, they always
provide amusement, and this year, aside
from great races for. which Minneapolis
and st. Paul each guarantee $4,000 the
special attractions are the finest that
have ever been engaged. Every one who
saw Marian Mills or Happy Jack pace a
mile without driver or sulky, without
skip or break, will be surprised to learn
that that wonderful specimen of horse
education has been SO far out done that
i've pacing horses will pace an actual
race without sulky or driver, making the
time in low figures, probably below 2:1O.
1t is hard to believe this performance
possible, but it will take place every
afternoon of the Fair week. A balloon
| ascension will also come off every after
noon, between the exciting races, which
| will be the hottest sort of contests. One
OF the new features will be day fireworks.
These are Japanese invention, and will
excite and surprise every body by their
novelty. Remember that one fare on
the railroad pays both ways, and that
| the date is Sept. 5 to 10 inclusive.

and pulled me out. Just then there
were requirements of some com
pany coming along and joined them
in charge. This charge was on what
is called the second blockhouse, and
we had to push our way through the
thickets. Before we got to it a halt
was called and we were ordered to lie
down. We fired two rounds at the
Spaniards concealed in the entrench-
ments around the blockhouse. Then
the order came to charge again. .s
