A half-mile single dash running race
brought on a good field of horses and
gave an exciting exhibition.
The white riderless wonder then ran
against two other horses which had eX-

wonder winning in 601a seconds.

The attack and capture OF Manila pre-
scented many of the features of real war
in highly dramatic way. Before the
battle the army camps of the contend1ng
armies, with their white tents and blaz-
ing camp fires, were plainly visible.
Then were seen the armies approaching
nearer the city,--and occasional shots
were heard giving warning of the app
proaching battle Gradually the firing
increased, and was participated in by the
artillery and war vessels lying near the
city Finally the United States forces
stormed the city ana poured into its
streets, while many of its buildings went
UP in flames All this filled the sky with
fire and light of almost every hue, and
the air with all the noises incident to real
war. AS the battle ragged the band play

closed by a set piece representing Old
Glory, while the band played "The Star

The show in front of the grand stand

AS the balloon rose and sailed away
with Prof. Chase dangling at the end OF

fairly on them, the crowd saluted him
with a mighty cheer, and the shouting

STATE FAIR NOTES.

The street railway company made elab.
crate arrangements for the handling or
last nights crowd, and fully half a. mi g
of extra cars were run into Smelling ave-
nue. to await the close of the Battle of
Manila The result was that the grounds
and vicinity We're practically cleared and
every one carried down town by IL O'CLOCK,
and that without aceident.
The breeze spoiled the balloon ascen-
sion, but it made things much more COM
Portable for the crowds.
There is some difficulty over the run
ming races Under the rules of the Ma
tional Turf congress, it seems, the run
ners are barred from appearing on half
mile track and similarly association rae
ing them on such a track are liable to dis
qualification under the rules of the Ma
tional Trotting association. At any rate,
that is the claim alleged by some of the
horsemen and one of the Chicago Wis
itors yesterday charged that he mad been
! led to bring his horses here by misrepre-
sentation. Secretary Randall felt that the
insinuation of misrepresentation was UNI
just, but tried to explain that 1t had all
been misunderstanding, and finally the
indignant horseman was .appeased. but
