M|RTn, MUSIC, MELODY
At THE GREAT FAIR

Not content with presenting to his
patrons the regular streotyped form Of
entertainment, Con T. Kennedy, general
director of The Con T. Kennedy Shows,
which will provide all of the amusement
features for the Tennessee State Fair,
September 20 to October A. has assem-
bled musical comedy organization,
featuring La Zoria, a premier dancer
and entertainer who has scored marked
success in the music halls of London,
Berlin, Paris and st. Petersburg and
other European cities.
Manager Kennedy, approaching the
Importance of surrounding this star with
competent supporting company, has
spared TO pains or expense. The ward
robe is lavish and the scenic investiture
worthy of an organization playing the
frst-class theaters. Nor has Manager
Kennedy overlooked the orchestral re-
quirements. Mirth, music and melody
reign supreme with the La Zoria Show.
To provide the electrical effects which
add distinctiveness and charm to this
remarkable musical comedy offering a
half dozen expert electricians are carried.
Spot and flood lights are utilized and
novel mechanical effects interviewer,
making the La Zoria entertainment at
once unique and meritorious. A beauty
chorus OF twenty comely ladies assist
in the performance. The latest song
hits are brought out in striking man
ner, and altogether it is a performance
which VIII appeal to folks who enjoy
hgh-class, smart, clean entertainment.

CABARET SHOWS AT THE FAIR

The announcement that the trustees
of the Tennessee State Fair have con-
cluded negotiations with the Con T. Ken.
needy Shows to provide all of the amuse-
snent features this year, comes with
more than an ordinary degree of inter
est and insures the patrons of an en-.
tertainment diversified and high-class.
Among the twenty-five shows which
Manager Con I. Kennedy is to bring us,
one feature which should appeal most
strongly to our people is the Cabaret
Show. Having spent months in Chicago,
New York and the capitals of Europe
during the past winter, Manager Ken
nedy evolved the idea of presenting to
his carnival patrons a form q variety
entertainment such as has not heretofore
been in evidence with this class of an
amusement enterprise. From advance, re-
ports it would appear that the Cabaret
.Show is Of exceptional magnitude and
merit. ~
While the management has exercised
great care in the selection of talent and
in the form of. entertainment, we are
led to believe that although the objec-
tionable features of the European cab
sret have been eliminated the corps Of
Kennedy entertainers present program
of unusual interest. Vaudeville plays an
important part in the amusement Of the
masses all over the world, and it is fair
to presume that the entertainment to
be accorded the patrons Of the Cabaret
Show, a leading feature of the Con r.
Kennedy aggregation, will be entertained
in an exceptional manner. There will
be ten high-elass vaudeville acts, to say
nothing of the opponents of modern
dancing.

TO BE LITTLE WORLDS FAIR

The directors iof the Tennessee State
Fair are to be felicitated upon having
concluded arrangements with The Con
7. Kennedy Shows to provide the amuse-
ment features this year. Transported
on thrty-two sixty-foot cars, carrying
twenty-five individual attractions and
three riding devices, thoroughly equipped
in every department, The Con T. Ken
nedy Shows are recognized as the great
est amusement enterprise of its charac-
ter in the world.
The Plaza of Pleasure, at night, pre-
sents a bewildering picture-a veritable
Worlds Fair, in miniature. Thousands
Of electric lights make this section even
brighter than day. To provide the cleo
trical illumination is carried two COM
plete lighting plants, and this part Of
the equipment alone represents an out
lay of $4,000. The wagon fronts are
respondent with gold leaf and allegor-
zeal carvings. A world of money has
been invested in the paraphernalia.
To get away from the usual method
of presenting amusement attractions in
separate exhibitions the freaks with The
Con T. Kennedy Shows have been as
sembled under one canvas, one price of
admission being charged to see them all.
In the selection of these curious peo-
pie for public exhibition, Manager Ken
nedy has been careful to eliminate any
feature distasteful or at all unwelcome
to the most fastidious patrons.
The Congress of Natures Mistakes,
which is decided factor of the Midway,
is most comprehensive and unique.

FAIR WILL BE INSTRUCTIVE

On Monday morning, September goth,
the gates OF the Tennessee State Fair
win be thrown open to visitors and for
six whole days the people of Tennessee
and neighboring states will have an op-
portunity to see exemplified the progress
we are making agriculturally, and they
are going to be astounded at the progress
we are making. While many men and
women know something about one OF
more of the couptry's big state fairs,
not so many know about the organiza-
tioa and the effort expended in success
fully conducting one of these expostions.
Only few know definitely the how and
Che why Of the state fair of today You
can learn all about it by visiting the

"lnns."

At enc time the words hostel and
"inn" were not confined to licensed
houses, but were applied to lodging
houses. The Inns of Oxford and
Cambridge, very numerous before the
introduction of colleges, were reg
ulated by the college authorities. The
Inns of Court were provided for the
accommodation of law students. In
olden times country houses of the
aristocracy, during the absence of
the owners, were used as inns" or
guest-houses. 1t was then the rule to
hang out as signs the arms of the
owners; hence the origin Of public
house signs.

Senator's Shields and Lea agreed
today to recommend Mr.. Stafford,
and his name will be sent to the

Victor j. Stafford supported the
independent judicial ticket, but he
voted for Taylor for governor. In
the 1912 race for governor he
supported Benton McMillin.
Senators Shields and Lea con-
ferred this afternoon with refer
ence to Tennessee patronage, dis
cussing plans for arriving at some
agreement whereby certain feder-
al offices in the state, now held by
republicans, may be bestowed up
on democrats without further de-
lay. President Wilson is anxious
for the Tennessee senators to ar
rive at common understanding
as to the states quota of federal
patronage, that he may act ac-
cordingly. Indications are that
they will get together on some of
of the aspirants for favor.

so much scoring is directly attributed TO
the use of open football by both teams.

Neither team could make consistent

line and hard hitting backs were the
main factors in this surprising victory,
but the local team showed a good va

cess with the forward pass.
Nichols, who played quarter during one
half OF the game, electrified the specta-
tors by his wonderful dodging, runs OF
from 30 to 30 yards being frequently
reeled on by him.
BuckneH took creditable brace at the
beginning of the second half, and Sc

and the Midshipmen had no difficulty
in taking it over on the first play OF the

Cruikshanks to Sullivan.
