Events.
STOCK AWARDS MADE.
Prize Winners Now Wearing
Blue Ribbons.
Midway Attractions Are At
tracing Larger Crowds.
;TOCK AWARDS MADE.

This is the big day at the fair
grounds. There are more visitors from
out of town and the banks and other
business places are closed.
The crowd at the fair grounds We'd
nesday afternoon was not as large as
that of Tuesday. The Kansas Derby of
the day before was probably the cause.
The Midway did a better business
Wednesday night and good crowds were
on the grounds until the last perform
ance was given.
the crowds patronizing the fair grounds
line are not as large as they hoped for.
The management of the exposition, how
ever, is well pleased with the attendance
and say that Tuesdays attendance was
larger than the first days attendance Of
fairs that have been held before.
The competition for prizes il the fine
stock classes has been close, especially In
the Duroc-Jersey swine department, where
an unusually large number of entries have
been made.
NO VAUDEVILLE GIVEN.
The vaudeville entertainment was not
given in front of the grand stand at the
fair grounds last night as the crowd
was too small to make it profitable
About 200 people were in the grand
stand. The night was rather cool for
persons to sit in the grand stand with
comfort and the midway attracted the
largest part of the crowd

RACES STILL PLEASE
Free for All Trot Was an Exciting
Event.

The first 'srear' horse race of the
week was the free-for-an trot at the
fair grounds Wednesday afternoon when
Tony w. and Senator w. fought for
first place.
For the first time the race was close
quired to settle it. Senator w. took the
first and second heats, Tony w. the
third and fourth and then the Senator
was given the fifth.
Senator W. went under the wire in
the lead on the third heat with Tony
the heat to Tony w. and second place
to Senator w. on account of the Senator
breaking in the back stretch The
judges decided that the Senator made
space by the break
Tony W. took the fourth heat handily
and with the horses holding two heats
apiece the fifth heat worked up consid-
erablbe excitement. The horses got on
well together but at the first turn Tony
W. broke badly and before Campbell
got him on his feet again he was in last
place. Senator w. was leading all the
way. At the half Tony W. had crawled
up to fourth place, at the three-quarter
pole he was up to third place. 1t look
ed as if he would take second place and
push Woods, who was driving Senator
w for first place, but in the stretch he
acted badly and finally ran into the
fence, tore off few boards and finish
ed the heat with the inside wheel OF
the su1ky badly wrecked and part of
the whirewashed fence tangled up with
the spokes The impression the crowd
had was that Tony W. would have ta-
ken the heat had not Campbell held
him. Tony w. seemed to want to GO
and when his driver held him in he
became wrathy and began to run Il
looked so palpable that it was surpris-
ing he was not displaced by the judges.

Everything Apparently Cleaned Out
at Fair Grounds,

The bar at the German village on the
midway of the fair grounds was closed
last night, SO far as beer was concerned.
The bar was there but only pop and
gingerale was served and as no one
cared to drink such brands in German
village the bar did little business The
big tent where six bartenders worked
Tuesday was taken down and out of
the grounds. The bar was removed from
the joint in the horse stalls and no beer
was sold here. So far as joints and bars
went the grounds were dry Wednesday
