LIVESTOCK KINGS THERE
Blooded Animals of Finest Types
Compete for Prizes.

There will be all sorts of contests
at the fair, but to the granger folk,
and particularly those engaged in
raising livestock, the big contest is
between the shorthorn bulls, Choice
Goods, owned by the Tebo Land and
Cattle. company of Clinton, Mo-, and
the Whitehall Sultan, owned by T.
w. Harding, Waukesha, Wis. Which
Of these will win the grand prize is
puzzling the shorthorn sharps for al
tho they are among the most distin-
guished representatives of their race
in the world, they have never yet
met in competition. Choice Goods
who weighs upwards of 1900 pounds
was not shown at all last year, but
in 1902 he carried everything before
him. AT that time Whitehall Sultan
a beautiful white kind was only a
yearling, but since has developed into
magnificent 3-year-old. Either an
ima1 is worth a small fortune and
no matter which is adjudged the
champion in his class, the margin OF
superiority is expected to be very
close.

Monday Evening,

The crowds confined their sightsee-
ing largely 40 walking about the
grounds and dmiring the many i'm
proyements. They took what delay
they encountered with rare good
humor. Bands gave open air concerts
to thousands which We're appreciated.
A chill breeze blew across the grounds
but the drop in temperature had been
noted by most of the visitors before
they left Their homes and they dressed
for a cold day.
One notable feature of the fair was
the arrangements made by the holders
of concessions. These were ready for
business when the first man showed
his pasteboard to the ticket taker this
morning. They greeted him with a
gladstone announcement of the merits
of their various wares. The goods Of
fered for sale ranged ALL of the way
from the omnipresent frankfurter to
the sea- shell, which the barker SOL
emily announced gave the ''the roar
of the ocean at Coney Island if held to
the right ear
No one need go hungry at the fair.
On every hand the jangle of the din
ner bell is to be heard. Only one
thing can send a hungry man away
from the fair and that is the lack of
the price Of a meal.
Some of the visitors took a SOL
emn interest in the arrangement of
The, DootnS ana exhlDEtS. One couple,
accompanied by five olive branches,
gazed In awe at popcorn architect,
who was constructing a tower of red
paper-Wrapped corn. The mixing of
the red lemonade by a muscular speci-
men of manhood furnished the center
of attraction for another group.
Others devoted their attention to an
accumulation Of advertising matter
handed out by the accommodating
n lie
there is no rubbing out the fact that
it is a great day. If the people con-
tinue to came as they did today the
attendance will be a bumper.

association is making great deal of
the Minnesota fair and offers cash
prizes to the amount of $2,250 in adj
dition to those offered by the state
agricultural society.
Dan Hanna an Exhibitor.
B. o. Cowan of Chicago, assistant
secretary of the American Shorthorn
association, says that the shorthorn
exhibit at Hamlin is one of the three
or four really big displays of the sea-
son. In the breeders class there are
fifty more entries than at last year S
fair, which was the largest short
horn show of the whole year.
Not only are the entries more NUM-
erous but the quality of the stock Is
better.
Among the leading exhibitors is
Dan Hanna, son of the late Marcus
A. Hanna. The big breeding herds
of the middle west are here.
1t may not be generally known that
Minnesota stands about as high as
a shorthorn state any Of the states,

$4,000 for Herefords.
Those rivals of the shorthorns, the
famous whitefaced Herefords, backed
by the American Hereford Cattle
Breeders association, are at Hamlin
forming the national show Of the as
ISOLATION. The cash premiums Of
fered in the Hereford class alone, ag-
gregate $4,000, of which half is con-
tributed by the Hereford association.
In the dairy classes the Jerseys and
Guernseys are here in larger number
and finer specimens than in former
years.
There are four large herds Of Jer-
seys on the grounds, among them the
particularly fine herd owned by M,
D. Mum, who has a model stock
farm at Forest Lake. The Guernsey
display of Trait & Son Of whitewater,
Wis, is said to be the best ever seen
at Minnesota fairs.

about Postum: II was for years a

they were so violent that grooming in

II tried all sorts of remedies known

caused by the stomach or biliousness
and again 1 would suspect twas pure

permanent relief. Having to appear
before the public nearly every night,

using Postum and got well. He is de-

1T was shortly after II o'clock
when Senator kunte Nelson, in COM
pany with his colleague, Senator
Moses E. Clapp, and Dean Liggett
were driven into the grounds and to
the big tent in which Senator Nelson
was to speak. Lieutenant Governor
Ray w. Jones and Former Governor
McGill escorted them. The senator
who was to make the opening ad-
dress of the fair, was distinguished
by an old straw hat which promptly
caused him to be hailed in friendly
fashion as Farmer Nelson" A tour
of the barns was made just prior TO
the opening of his speech. which was
delivered from a platform on which
/ sat many notables in the state, among
them being President C. N. Cos

Owing to the condition of the

In brief sketch of the fair and a

progress the association had made.
Senator Nelson, whose appearance
was the signal for enthusiastic ap-
plause, struck the fancy Of his hearers
many times during his address.
During the morning the Ninety-frst
fighlanders band, of the Canadian
militia, gave an impromptu concert
near the gate and also serenaded the
officers of the association subsequently
entertaining the audience in the big
tent, prior to the delivery of Senator
/ Nelson's speech. Clad in their catchy
Scotch uniforms these thirty-eight
musicians, who show unusual talent
and careful directing, made a most
pleasing appearance.

& FEW EXHIBITS INCOMPLETE
Fair Was Ready for Visitors at the
Opening.

An object lesson in opening a big
fair was given at Hamline this morn
ing. At 9 o'clock, when the gates
We're opened, ninety-nine out of every
100 exhibits were in place and the at
PENDANTS were ready to receive and en-
terrain visitors. Here and there be-
lated exhibitor was lacking up a sign
or a bit of bunting but as far as the
average visitor is concerned the fair
was as ready as it will be during the
week.
It is triteness itself to repeat the old
tale that the fair is bigger, greater,
grander" than ever before, but it is
palpably true. This can be seen at
the first glance over the grounds or
the first view of the interior of the
buildings.
president B. F. Nelson, who
has charge of the main and the
woman's buildings, declares that he
never had so many displays under his
charge nor such handsome ones. In

are taking much of his time This
morning they wanted pianos. Three
of them had been ordered but only
one came and the ladies refused to
render any music unless they had

EMERGENCY HOSPITAL READY
Model Institution Is Fully Equipped
to Meet Weeks Demands.

The hospital, which is presided
over by the Woman's Medical club,
is one Of the most attractive buildings
on the grounds. It was built for it's
purpose by the board Of management,
near the site Of the old Driving
club, and is equipped with everything
necessary for emergency work. The
women's clubs, thru their hospital de-
partment, proved the necessity of
such a place, and the Women's Med
ical club has been aided in every way
by the directors. There are eight
beds, not cots, as one of the doctors
emphasized, and two private rooms
have been arranged for patients who
wish to be by themselves. Dr.. Mary
G. milestone, president Of the club,
has been busy for some time with the
preliminary arrangements Miss
.O'Connor is the nurse in charge for
the week, and two Of the women doc
tors, with two nurses, will be in at
tendance each day. DR.. Addie Havers-
field and DR.. Henrietta Miller were
there today, and tomorrow DR.. Anna
Hurd and DR.. Mexican will be IN
charge.
Checkroom for Children.
Near at hand is "a large tent where
women may leave their children while
they are doing the fair, and the small
boys and girls will be amused and
cared for by Dr. Henrietta Miller and
two nurses. This nursery department
will fill a much needed want, fol-
many women cannot. leave their chill
dren at home, and yet do not want
to tire them with visits to the differ
ent buildings.

GOOD HUMOR PREVAILED
Few Rough Corners Did Not Disturb
TX the Crowd.

I One Of the most favorable indica-
lions Of opening morning was the gen
sral good humor of the crowd While
the preparedness of the fair was much
in advance of that of previous years,
there was much to do in many of the
buildings and many Of the exhibits
! were Incomplete. There was trouble
over telephones, but this was due to
the fact that the phone companies
were badly damaged by the big storm
I, Of a week ago and many of the wires
HAD not been fixed.

A "WHITE CITY" NOW
Great Improvements Made in Appear
ance of Grounds.

More changes and improvements
have been made at the state fair
grounds this year than in any previous
year. Almost a complete metamor-
.phosis has taken place since the great
fair of 1908, and many Of the regular
patrons of the annual shows at Ham
line will find difficulty in recognizing
familiar corners. - >.zez
Barrels and barrels of white paint
have been used and, tonfiafter ton Of
cement. The result is a city of daz-
zlings whiteness and mile ON mile of
be stated that fifteen barrels of white
paint were used on the fair buildings
this month. This is $50 gallons and it
is worth about $1,000. The sidewalks
now aggregate nearly $4,000 linea1

streetcar Terminals.
The first Improvement that the Wis
itor notes are the terminals Of the
Twin City Rapid Transit company
The yards include a dozen or more
tracks, one big loop and two smaller
loops, all arranged SO as to facilitate
the movement Of cars. These tracks
will accommodate 100 cars Of the in
terurban type, and the management
declares that, no matter how big the
crowds may be at the fair, they can
be handled easily and promptly. This
vast Improvement is expected to prove
a great convenience to state fair Wis
itOrs and to increase attendance, as
1t is we'll known that many residents
of Minneapolis and st. Paul abstained
year after year from from visiting the
fair, as they feared to encounter the
awful brushes in attempting to board
the cars for home.
| New Manufactures Building.
The new manufacturers building is
a, striking addition to the grounds. 1t
is the first Of the series of permanent
buildings which the management
hopes will eventually replace many of

| building cost 100000, the funds being
| appropriated by the state legislature.
