TACOMA BOOSTER
CROWD ARRIVES
PARADED STREETS THIS MORNING
Nearly Eight Hundred Arrived On
Special Train at Four O'Clock
Tuesday Evening.

The Tacoma Boosters came in
Tuesday evening to attend the state
fair. Most everybody in town
knows who they are. The few that
didn't find it out last night will
know it today The members of the
delegation will turn out en- masse
this morning at o'clock and parade
the main streets of the town, headed
by band. They have been given
the freedom of the city, and any
thing they do is all right.
The actual number who came on
the special train of fourteen cars is
767. A rate of So for the round trip
was secured, and there was not the
least trouble in getting the crowd
In fact, many more would have coma
If little greater effort had been
made. The Tacoma Booster Club
was behind the movement.
When the special train arrived in
Ellensburg, stop of fifty minutes
was made for lunch. The crowd
fell out of the windows, through the
car doors, crawled out the transoms
and fell all over each other in a mad
rush for the pie counter They
filled the lunch room, even drilling
in around behind the counter, and
soon the proprietor was forced to
beg those nearest the door to get out
and give him room The idea of
turning away business was new to
the boosters, and they couldn't get
over 1t.
There are a lot of jokes cracked
at the expense of Tacoma. but it is
as one of the chief men of the Taco
ma delegation said, Our enemies
laugh and make fun of us, but they
can not stop our wonderful progress.
we are working hard to make our
city the finest in the west and hard
work has never been defeated yet. I"
The Tacoma people are out for a
good time and it is like meeting a
friend to receive one of the smiles
that is always found over the little
red ribbon.
In the vening most of the boost
ers" found their way to the carnival
grounds, where. headed by the re-
doubtable John Blau. the sights
were taken in.

In the yards is a line of gas en-
gines and windmill, from the Witte
Gas Engine Co., that attracts much
attention.
H. H. Collier, who is in charge Of
the poultry department, says that
this year there is much larger and
finer poultry show than has ever
been here before. There are over
1000 birds entered and many are
the new coops that had to be made
for the birds. The whole building
is taken up with the birds and there
is barely room to walk between the
coops. From Ellensburg there are
over 500 fowls of various kinds and
go from Tacoma besides all the To-
cal ones.
w. D. Foster of College Farm,
Pullman, is superintendent of the
stock department and although not
nearly all the stock had been enter
ed he said the showing was fine. ].

The usual numbers of picture talk

along to make the show amusing
and interesting. Eating counters in
large numbers are scattered over the
grounds and lemonade in quantity,
but one poor belated man was heard
to say "Why, they charge Is cents

Many of the entries were not
made Monday, but everything is ex-
peeted today and the fair will be
complete for the Tacoma boosters
who will be here.
