Uniform Rank by the narrow margin
of half an inch.
The first of three exhibitions of fire
works by the American Fireworks Co.
OF Boston was given this evening. The
fireworks were sent up from the infield
and the display, which included many
beautiful set pieces and novel effects,
was witnessed by nearly as large a
crowd as attended the races in the af-
ternoon.

cessful fair in the history of the So
Getty" said President B. ]. Libby Mon
day afternoon. There are not stalls
enough on the grounds to put all the
horses which are entered for the races
and for exhibition. The neat stock
exhibit is excellent in quality and the
entries are large in this department.
The fruit and vegetable exhibit is the
greatest in years. We have been
obliged TO use an extra floor in EXhi-
bition hall for the fruit and veg
etahles"

the exhibits in shape so that the un.

and 2.31 pace We're attractions sur
ficient to draw a big crowd and they
commenced to come as soon as the
gates were opened in the morning.
The midway was, in full blast early
Monday forenoon and while there were
not quite as many midway attractions
as On previous years it is safe to say,
that it is as clean midway as has
been seen at any fair in the State this
year.
