Weldon, N. c., Oct. 31.-This has been
the greatest day in the history of the
Weldon Fair. Maj. Emry president of
the Fair, said this evening he had
never before seen so large a crowd at
the Fair. There were special trains
from every direction and these, besides
the regular trains, were all loaded down.
Governor Aycock spoke at the APP
pointed hour, but his voice could not be
heard to the outskirts of the crowd
while hundreds of people sauntered
about the grounds having given up the
effort to get near enough to hear.
One of the most exciting features of
the day was the arrest of fakirs.
Yesterday the Midway, besides the
regular shows, was lined from one end
to the other with fakirs running gam
bling tables. Today they attempted to
work the same racket AS this is a
plain violation of the State law Justice
of the Peace House, having secured his
witnesses, attempted at one fell swoop
to capture the whole gang. He succeed

took alarm and fled.
Some of them were able to give bond,
but the rest were tied with ropes and
led from the grounds, followed by Gu
rious and much amused crowds.
After this everything was pleasant
and agreeable.
Amidst the many attractions of the
Midway there was only one really inde-
cent show. Public sentiment and the
new State law, it is thought, has forever
banished these immoral features from
our fairs.
The racing was fine and the high dive
and the balloon ascension was each a
success.
