THE VALDoSTA FAIR.
Even a Larger Number of Visitors
Attend.

Attend.
Valdosta, Ga, Oct. 31.--The fair was
attended to-day by great crowds of
people. Contrary to expectations, the
crowd was much larger than yester-
day, the fair grounds being filled all
day long. All of the roads brought
many visitors from all sections. The
visitors to-day gave more attention to
exhibits than any crowd that has yet
attended.
The exhibits were in a much better
condition and those who were In the
grounds seemed anxious to make a
careful inspection of every department.
At an early hour Secretary Cobb of
the Agricultural Department ANNOUNCE
ed that the officials. of the association
had decided to invite the commissioners
of agriculture of all of the Southern
states to attend the fair in a body next
week and act as judges of the agri-
cultural displays. This was done on
account of the many excellent displays
and the embarrassment which might
come to citizens of the state in decid-
ing on the excellence of displays where
there We're so many really good ones.
This is a new departure, but it meets
the approval of all.
This afternoon the musical pro-
gramme under the management of
Mrs. Henry Young. of Atlanta, proved
to be a very attractive feature. 1t was
given in connection with the educa-
tional department. but under the au-
spices of the Federation of Wolnan's
Clubs.
Several very fine exhibits arrived to-
day, among them being $50 coops of
chickens and other fowls. 1t is an
nounced that the Jones county agri-
cultural display will be on hand in the
morning.
The night attractions consisting of
fireworks, etc, were put on tonight.

A BAD FALL.
Circusman Falls From Spiral Tower
and Sustains Serious Injury.

Albany, Ca, Oct. 31.-One of the per-
formers with the Forepaugh & Sells
Bros. circus was seriously, perhaps IA
tally, injured during this afternoon
performa ice here.
The victim of the accident appears
on the bills as Minting, the marvel.
He rides a unicycle up a sperial tower
to the top of the tent, and descending
in the same manner. This afternoon he
made the ascent as usual but when
he jumped from his wheel at the top
of the tower, the platform gave way
beneath his weight and he fell through.
He struck the track at three points be-
fore finally reaching the ground and
was in an unconscious condition when
picked up. The distance of the fall was
about 40 feet
Mintings condition is critical. His
shoulders were badly injured by the
fall and the physicians think several
ribs were broken. There were internal
injuries, but the effects of these can
not be determined. 1t will certainly be
many weeks before the injured man
can ascend the tower on his wheel
again.

however, and yanked out. Ocean
