 Time-1:24h, 1:22; 1928.
 The five-eigbths mile dash was won by Alivia in 1:O4a. with Talleyrand second and Schottische third. Dia- mond was also a starter with Hardy up but his stunt almost ended in tragedy. On the first turn Hardy was thrown and lay like a dead man while his mount galloped away. But be- fore the crowd reached him Hardy was up and able to walk back to the judges stand.
 The half-mile dash was won by Marmorian in :5012. Lucifer second and Hurleyanna third. Brownie was also in the race but not in the money
 The three quarter mile running race was won by Wherewithal in 1:171z; Bob Andrews second and Tejo third.
 The relay race was won again by Nina Sanders who rode the C. B. Morse string of Mesa Oscar Roberts who rode his own string looked like a winner, leading in each of the three changes on the two mile event but on the last lap Sanders passed him just before the finish and came in waving his hand exultingly. Roberts was second.
 Pointers for Today.
 Before proceeding with the anus ing features it is well to say some thing about today's events and speak of some generalities. One thing that should be duly spoken of is the fine music of the Copper Queen band which is constantly on tap and which is Bisbee's special contribution to the fair. Bandmaster Clark is always where he is wanted and he has an az gregation of musicians that is seldom eXcelled in any country, much less to be found in any city of the size of Bisbee, Phoenix, or any other south western town. By request Soloist Wright yesterday repeated "The old Home Down on the Farm" and it was duly appreciated by all. In consid- ering the band it should not be for gotten that its presence is due to the liberality of Walter Douglas
 Tonight will be seen at the fair grounds the finest display of fire works ever shown in Arizona, and at an expense of s2,000 to the commits sion. During the display Troop G of the Sixth cavalry will give a drill and exhibition parade on the race track in front of the grand stand. This event was slated for yesterday af- ternoon in the in-field, but it was found to be too wet to be used for that purpose.
 The fair comsission also makes the announcement, definite and official that for the purposes of the night en- tertainment the grounds will be cleared at o'clock and an admission fee of 90 cents will be charged to see the fireworks. This does not except passes either. The man with the pass will have to pay just like the others for it is an expensive show and a side issue to the fair.
 Respecting the automobile races to- day the announcement is made that they will positively begin at l o'clock and that the first race will be one of the best ones. It is a long program and those who want to see the best come early
 No horses will be allowed today on the infield, but automobiles will be admitted at 50 cents each.
 While in the announcing business attention is again called to the big Friday race when the four fast horses of the Savage stable will appear in what will probably be the biggest and best and fastest harness race the world has ever seen.
 Elks' Day Sports.
 The Elks Day sports consisted of a variety of opera bouffe events fol- lowing big parade of the members that reached half way around the smaller track, headed by the Indian band playing Auld Lang Syne, then doubled back again.
 The parade was followed by George Driscoll, Frank DeSouza and Paul Ingies. all distinguished Elks, each driving a speedy burro to a sulky The brutes were so speedy a boy had to lead each one to keep him in line Immediately after the parade a half mile race between these three oc- cured, Ingles starting at the pole, Driscoll on the outside and DeSouza between. Driscoll made a good get away and DeSouza fighting for the in- side track, locked wheels with Ingles before they had gone ten yards The track managers got them separated and they started again. Ingles wisely saw he should not force things but let the burro have his way so he cut down to the low gear and the animal finally started. DeSouza in the mean time was actually moving and at the sixteenth post Ingles was a quarter I0riS ;,,
