hour and if by that time you haven't got
enough we'll sell you another ticket.
And speaking Of tickets reminds me OF

this-the biggest show on the road today
and so. to help pay expenses we are charg-
ing an admission fee of only ten cents.
It's a losing business, but we are de-
termined that the people who visit this
Fair shall have the best. Come one, come
all. The performance is now in progress
That reminds me to say you ought to pro-
gress this way. Progress is now the
watchword of the age. and to this show
all ages are admitted. It's the only
show on the ground that you can
take lady to with impunity, or with any
other valuable that she may happen to
have
Valuable-that's the word. This show is
valuable contribution to science, liter2-

The story of Thursdays Fair is the
stdry of fair women and prosperous fakirs.
These two extremes were the features
OF Yesterdays show
1t was Raleigh Day. The city took
holiday and went to the Fair. which means
that the grounds were filled with re-
markably fine looking lot of people. The
feminine world had not been extensively
represented until yesterday, then the wo-
men came in great numbers from the
homes and schools of the State-and this
made it Ladies' Day.
prettier sight one could hardly find
than the thousands of pretty Tar Heel
girls that passed through the gates and up
the Midway" AS proud and stylish as
any picture girl that Gibson ever drew,
they were; as sweet and beautiful as
poets dream. They made the day for
Fair yesterday and the fakirs made the
day for them, and that's why these two
incongruties are linked in this story.
The weather was again perfect and the
crowd was immense. going up into the
thousands that no man could number but
everybody could guess at Some guessed
ten thousand, while others doubled the
number and some even trebled it. Who
was right l shall not undertake to say,
but the crowd was immense-greater than
it has been before during this Fair and
greater than it will be again. Everything
that is owned here in the shape of car
rage was on Hillsboro street all day long,
and the street cars and railroad cars
were crowded with people going to and
from the Fair grounds. From early morn
till late at night it was a double process
sion-one line of vehicles going out and
another coming mall laden with human
freight.
Every incoming train during the week
had been crowded with visitors for the
Fair and by Wednesday night the hotels
and boarding houses were full to overflow
ing-hundreds being unable to even find
a place to sleep. But this did not STOP
the infiowing tide. All through Wednes-
day night and yesterday morning long pas
senger trains brought in thousands more
until at noon the Fair grounds looked as
if they could hardly hold another one
and even then the streets of the city were
crowded.
There was a great throng of people-as
there always is on Thursday of Fair week.
In the afternoon the tide began to flow
out, ana kept going all uiShl. lhei0loi q
today's entrances at the grounds Will
show a decided falling off, though still
the number will go up into the thousands,
for the Fair is not yet over.
This is Educational Day and most OF the
schools and colleges will be we'll repre-
scented. Especially those interested in -ath-
letics will be here in force. as there
is to be a game of baseball played on the
grounds this afternoon. Then there is
the Marshal's Ball tonight at the Capital
Club. which no young lady wants to miss,
for there are many regalias to be given
awav.s
These two attractions. il nothing else
will hold the young people today-and to-
morrow, the Fortieth North Carolina State
Fair will be numbered among the things
that were.

FAIR FEATURES FOR TODAY.
An Educational Rally, Foot Ball Game and
the MarshalPs Ball,

The features of the State Fair today
win be the Educational rally in the main
Exhibition hall, at noon, presided over by
President Charles McNamee, and the
football game at o'clock, between Virginia
Polytechnic Institute at Blackburg, and
North Carolina College of Agriculture
and Mechanic Arts, in this city.
The educational meeting will be adj
dressed by DR.. Winston, of the A. and Nj.
College; Prof. Carlyle, of Wake Forest
College; Principal Campbell, of Buie's
Creek Academy, and representatives from
the University, Davidson, Elon, Trinity
and other schools and colleges.
These addresses are limited to five
minutes each and will be interspersed
with music.
The football game will be the first
played here this season, and the pros
poets are that it will be a closely con-
tested battle. Both teams are thoroughly
trained and in fine physical condition.
Tonight the Marshal's Ball will be given
at the Capital Club.

THE GUN CONTEST ENDS.
The Most Successful Tournament Ever Held in
Il g State.

The second and last day of the Peters
Cartridge Company's shot gun tournament
closed yesterday. The number of shoot
ers was double the number that took part
in the tournament on Wednesday.
Souvenirs of the shoot were distribut-
ed, viz: Handsome little pins represent
ing Peters 22-calibre cartridge and a
beautiful button Many of the gentle sex
honored the shoot with their presence
and took off with them samples of the
targets used.
Eight regular events were shot, and Mr.
Barney Worthan, of Charleston, S c.,
won the elegant gold locket put up by the
Peters Cartridge Company for the shoter
making the highest average the two days.
The prize was presented to Mr.. Worthan
by Mr.. #. H. Keller in few well chosen
and appropriate remarks.
The shooting continued yesterday until
twilight put stop to the fun. and thus
closed one of tn most successful and
largest attended shoot ever given in North
Carolina.
Too much praise cannot be extended the
Peters Cartridge Company for their lib
crafty and efforts to please not only the
home shooters, but our visiting friends
throughout the State. Messrs. Parker and
Lemcke, accompanied by Mr.. Worthan,
leave tomorrow for Jacksonville. Florida,
where the Peters Cartridge Company will
give a three days shoot to the Floridans
The shoot there is on the 90. 80 and 31st,
the first two days targets will be shot and
on the third and last day live pigeons will
be used.

Teasa--Th Tancing Girl.

See the beautiful Teasa-she'S peach,
and not a pair, for she has no counterpart
or equal in the world. 1t was her dance
that made the Worlds Fair Midway
famous-and, 1 might add. infamous.
You've all heard of it-and you ought

makes the old feel young and the young
feel like thirty cents. But it costs you
only q dime. In Atlanta she received
5000 a day-iust to dance.
Here now is Teasa-see her frisk. She
danced before all the crowned heads OF
Europe were born. but she's still young.
She laughs at time and bald heads, and
the dimples of her mirth cradle age.
When you see Teasa in all her freedom
as you will if you'll just step right in
you'll see her in less than you now be-
hold her.
She's the inventor and original patentee
of the dance du ventre." Perhaps you
don't know what that means. Then I'll
explain:
Dance" is the Latin word for collect. y
And that's what Teasa is now before you
for-to collect. Not money. Perish the

and tigers and bears and hyenas and hip

You have all read in the News and OBJ

body in North Carolina that can read

Noah's Ark. Why is it so named? Be-
cause, like that historic ouse-boat of
which we ought to read in the Bible and
don't, it contains every sort of living an
imal. Everything that creeps, crawls,
jumps or flies is here.
If old Noah was in the grounds today
he'd take it for the original family with

as Noah did.
And here. ladies and gentlemen, is the
pride of the Ark-La Belle Fatima, the
only dancing bear in the world. There
is nothing else like her on the globe. You'll
recognize her at a glance. See her dance.
She has not danced before all the crowned
head of Europe. but she is not like one
who can't do it.

you q little secret. Secretary Pogue came

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: We have
been wondering for some time just how
THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE stood on the po.
litScal issues this year, but your editorial
of last week defines your position so clear
ly that we know for a certainty that
The NATIONAL TRIBUNE is all right; and
while we can condemn the policy of Evans
we feel your views of the case ought to
be indorsed by all of the old vets, and
surely is by us.
What can the loyal men Of the North
expect to gain by throwing our strength
to the party which has always been and
is yet our hereditary enemy? l have read
The NATIONAL TRIBUNE more or less for
20 years, and have always found it con-
sistent in its views on all leading Ques-
tions, and feel now that it is right ON the
political questions Of the day, and gives
the hybrid poll-parrot paramount issues,
OF which there are several yacillating va
rieties this year, black eye.
The readers of your paper almost to a
unit will give you credit for the position
you have taken, and the old soldiers Of
the North will unfurl "Old Glory" and
sing another song, and peace and plenty
will still abound, and Organism will be
relegated to the rear; snd SO mote 1t be-
