NOTES OF THE FAIR.

Among the visitors at the fair yes
terday were Mr.. Hoffman Wood, of
Mt. Sterling, Secretary of the Mont
gomery Fair Association. Mr.. Wood
was here in the interest of the fair
which is to be held in Mt. Sterling in
1914, and which gives every promise
Of being the best fair in the State.
Mr.. Wood has provided for seventeen
rich stakes for his fair next year, the
principal one of which will be the class
for sucking fillies, colts or geldings,
foaled in 1913. This is the richest
stake of the fair, having a premium
of 81 400, which is divided into several
parts.
There are 1872 exhibits in the green
tobacco show, which is said by many
to be the largest ever shown in Ken
lucky. The awards will be made to-
day.
About the happiest man to be Seen
on the fair grounds yesterday was
Secretary John Virgins. This is
Johns first venture as Secretary of
thes ociety and when it was reported
the crowd was the largest that had
ever assembled on the grounds on the
opening day he was all smiles. The
success of the cake walk pleased him
great deal, too, as well as George
Stuart, who was one of the princi-
pies in promoting this feature.

THE FAIR A BIG SUCCESS

CAKE WALK REPEATED
Large Attendance Yesterday, In
Spite of Rain
CAKE WALK REPEATED

Perhaps the largest crowd that has
ever been in attendance at the Bour-
bon Fair on the opening day since its
reorganization seven years ago, was
present yesterday to witness the eX-
hibit, which in several respects COM
pared with that of former years, while
in many it was far superior.
The day which dawned bright and
clear with a comfortable atmosphere
changed to some degree before the ex-
hibition began and while the weather
was very warm it was in way uncOm-
Portable to the large gathering. Short
ly afternoon a light rain fell, which
for a time threatened to preclude the
exhibition for the afternoon, but soon
bright sun dried the ring and the
exhibitors were able to proceed, the
entire program for the day being car
ried out
Without doubt, the most unique fea-
ture of the day was the cake walk, the
first to occupy a place on program
of country fair in this section of the
State, but which met with a hearty
ovation from the spectators, who
were moret han pleased with the per-
Torrance of the colored people who
participated in the event.
In the cake walk there participated
Nose Watkins and companion, of At
lanta, Ca, Bull Davis and companion,
of Knoxville, Tenn, Gene Williams
and companion, Paris, H. o. Reed and
companion, st. Louis, Mo-, and Geo.
Williams and companion, Paris. Wat
kins came out victor in the event

man Goodpaster and Withers Davis

tested in the outcome of the cake walk
that it has been decided by the man
agement of the fair to make a special
ring of cake walk Friday afternoon,
and the weather permitting, it should
prove quite an attraction.
Shetland ponies had their inning on
the opening day and the best product
of the Blue Grass region was on exhi-
bition. Competition in all of the rings
was very strong and it was difficult for
the judges to reach a decision.
In the New York saddle class there
were five entries and this being one
of the most difficult rings Of the after
noon for the judges to reach a decis
ion, more than one-half hour was con-
sumed. Finally by the decision of the
judge Matlack & Shropshire, of Win
chester, was awarded the first prize on
Goldie Mcdonald, and Caywood &
Hamilton, of North Middletown, Sec
ond.
The ring for the best colt, either sex
under one year old brought out ten
entries, and the awards were made to

Grandma Phelps was a woman over

She was not poor, and she was not

she preferred to. She was well liked
by all. and her life was passing smooth

ture to turn things topsy turvy.

Graphike,

Chemically graphite is very inter

the allotropic notifications Of carbon.
Carbon, like the magicians Of old, has
the power under proper conditions Of
assuming various forms called allo-
tropic notifications without losing its
individuality. So while its properties
and appearance may have changed 1t
is still chemically carbon and nothing
but carbon. As ordinarily met with In
the form Of coke, coal and charcoal, 1t
is called amorphous carbon, as graphite
1t is called graphite carbon, and In the
form Of the diamond 1t is known as
crystalline carbon. Coal Is therefore
very aptly termed "black diamonds

elders. There Is no restriction as to
material, and, as to design, both the
coat dress and the long wasted eff
fects are about equally popular. Frllls
and fluffy ruffles do not seem to be-
long to the children of nowadays, the
smartness of their frocks being at
tanned through good lines and sim
plicity. though not necessarily, severe
ly.
An effective design for small girl
is here sketched. A telling point in
its favor is that 1t slips on like coat,
buttons down one side and is belted
in loosely with a soft crushed SASH
which, in Its treatment, forms the
feature of the frock. White eponge
or ratine is used cut in one piece
from neck to hem. The opening down
the left side is curved from under
the collar, and has the lower corners
rounded off, leaving very short
notch In the skirt. The sleeves are
long and easy fitting, set into dropped
or tan colored ratine may be used for
the round turned back collar and
cuffs, with the buttons along the side
opening to match, or it may be left
all white. A nine-inch width of mes
saline will be better and softer than
ribbon for the sash, which Is tied
loosely about the waist with one end
run through the eyelet in front and
knotted under the opening.
