Senator Knute Nelson is to make
the opening address at the Minnesota
state fair next Monday morning. He
will be introduced by Governor Van i
SAINT and other state officials and dis
tinguished visitors will be present.
The exercises will be held in the great
tent where Colonel w. M. Liggett will |
act as master of ceremonies.
Monday is opening day, and besides |
the plans for the formal address
there will be big attractions. 1t is the
custom of the state fair management
to make the first day of the fair par
ticularly attractive to visitors, and this
year will be no exception to the rule.
Last year Dan Patch was the opening
day attraction. He was very satisfac-
tory. Many people went to see the
famous horse and he went a mile in
two minutes fiat, which was the best
he had done up to that time during
the. season. This year the speed
feature of Monday will be the 2:09.
pacing race-the fastest race of fair
week, and it is very likely that the
winner will do the mile in very nearly
as fast time as Dan Patch made his
exhibition mile last year. There are
eighteen good horses entered for this
race and some of them have been do
ing big things this summer. Horse
men say that it is very probable that
this race will be won at a 2:02 or 2:03
|
grounds one year to see Nancy Hanks
go a mile in 2:07, and an exhibition
| mile. too, there ought to be crowd to
see this great race of next Monday.
Besides the 2:09 pace, there will be
a $4,000 purse for 235 class trotters-
one of the new $4,000 purses offered
this year. In addition the full grand
stand program of specialties, includ-
ing the death-trap loop-the-loop act,
the leaDing Of the chasm, the high
dives, the balloon ascension and para
chute, leap, ETC., will be given COM
plete. =
All this will be repeated in the even
| ing with the addition of PAINS newest
and greatest spectacle. THE, .Destruc-s
ton of st. Pierre" Il s&@.2 ii
Another event of Monday will be the
opening Of the Pike. which will be ac-
complished by the famous Chief Flat
mouth, who has accepted an invita-
ton from the state fair management
and who will come from the Cass Lake
Indian reservation with suite of war
riors on purpose to assist his white
brothers in their big pow-wow. It will
be one of the sights of the fair to see
the stoicalsIndians trying to keep their
faces straight and preserve their ira
ditional decorum amid the fun and
/ frolic of the Pike. -
With all that is going on Monday,
! this will be one of the very best days
of the fair and the managers suggest
/ that peoD1e come on that day as far
as possible and avoid the crush later in
the week. 1t is positively guaranteed
that everything will be in order Mon
day morning. this being one Of the
rules of the fair. The half-fare rail-
road rates go into effect Saturday so
everybody can get into town easily by
Monday.
