ing from twenty-five cents up to three

tains the old race tracks which for
years attracted hundreds of the best
race horses on the Pacific Coast.
These tracks have not been used for
three years but have now been put in
first class condition and already more
than sixty of the fastest horses of the
Pacific Coast are entered for racing.
The horsemen are enthusiastic over
the outlook and claim that Pacific
Coast records will be smashed there
this year. 1t has been arranged to
give two professional horse races each
day beginning at 2 o'clock. More
than SO, 600 in purses are offered by
the association for the weeks races.
One of the best races will be held

second will be the 2-24 pace. This is
a first race and the winner will re-

tractive one. In both races the win

day to make a race.
2 Now is the time for the people OF
King county to prepare to attend this
great fair. This will be the first real
agricultural fair King county has
ever had. 1t is peoples fair; nc
private individual has any interest
whatever in this matter. The county
commissioners have done everything
in their power to assist the men who
have devoted their time to putting
this fair on it's feet. 1t will be fair
that every citizen of King county
may attend with pleasure and look
to with pride.
Among those who are working hard
in the interest of the fair are the

school children of King county. Be-
fore the school year closed Superin-
tendent Burrows sent requests to the
different districts of the county for
exhibits of school work, and they have
been coming in at a splendid rate.
The trustees of the association are
very anxious to have every school
child in King county attend this fair
it might do this with small expense
to themselves or parents the trustees
have decided to allow every school
child free admission to the fair upon
the sale of ticket of 81. co. that is,
every school child in King county
who will sell ticket for 90 can at
tend this fair without expense. They
are also authorized to sell as many
membership cards as they can and
will be allowed fifteen per cent Of the
selling price in cash. The sale of
membership cards not only will bring
large attendance at the fair but will
create more interest and the trustees
believe that the interest created is of
as much importance as the money
these memberships will bring. Every
person who buys a membership card
of 81. 90 or S. 90 will become an active
member of the fair association and
can come to its meetings and take
part in all it's proceedings. The
premium list can be had by address
ing the secretary either at Kent or
GOT Prefontaine Bldg, Seattle. The
Seattle Office is open every afternoon
and persons in the city can stop in
there and get list and have questions
answered
About $4,000 is needed to assure
the success OF this fair. and it is hop
ed that the average citizen of King
county will subscribe from S100 to
S.. 90 for this purpose. Some people
may think large amount ofmoney is
needed but when it is considered that
we must prepare for at least so, 600
people it can readily be understood
that money is required. The premium
list will reach from $4,000 to $4,000
and the purses for the races will take
large sum.
The fair management is arranging
for public meetings to be held at
different parts of the county at which
one or more of the trustees of the
fair will attend and answer any ques-
tions that may be asked.

ders, similar TO those Of last year, have
been issued to retailers Of pyrotech-
MICS to guard against the sale of dan
geroUs explosives to those who desire
10 celebrate the anniversary Of the
Declaration OF Independence Of the

told to refrain from selling giant crack
ers, or dynamite caps. Revolvers with
their blank cartridges are not to be
fired within the city limits. Giant
! crackers include crackers over five
inches in length.
/ Furthermore, orders are issued TO
the public, not only to heed the rules
set forth to the dealers, but 10 refrain
from letting their spirit of celebration
lead them to shooting off fireworks
either before or after the Fourth.
