turnstiles yesterday afternoon for the
second day OF the Fair, but the attend
ance was not as large as that OF Mon
day.
There was one thing that made yes
terday vastly different from the Tues
days Of previous years, the absence
Of children. The second day OF the
Fair has heretofore been observed as
"Children's Day" all children having
been admitted free that day. The
prevalence Of infantile paralysis caus-
ed the elimination OF this popular day
this year and moreover caused the
Fair authorities TO prohibit from ad-
mission into the park anyone under l6
years Of age. The children will miss
the pleasures Of Fair week this year.
Horse racing opened at the Fair
yesterday afternoon, and this sport
proved to be the main attraction 10
the crowds. Business was styled as
SLOW" along the midway, and several
places suspended operations until the
evening crowd arrived
Fewer automobiles were noticed In
the parking space yesterday. The
exhibitions Of automobiles and FARM
ing machinery drew much attention.
The latter proved the attraction for
the farmers, but not many Of these
we're present yesterday. The usual
yard sticks, rulers. book markers and
other small articles, given away at
the various booths, were much In evil
dence.
The policemen on duty at the
grounds are having no trouble. Order
Is excellent. Traffic officer John
McAteer is acting sergeant In charge
OF the patrolmen on duty at the
grounds. He has under him eight
policemen. besides about sixteen spe-
cial officers located in different parts
Of the grounds. The day yesterday
was warm. very much 10 the satisfac-
ton OF the Fair officials and its
patrons.

Many of the old attractions which
found favor last year are retained in
the bill presented this fall by the Dor

is a favorite with tho young people
while the spectators nearly "burst their
sides" with laughter at the sight Of the
"whip' patrons striving frantically TO
keep themselves from being thrown out
of the cars, which twist and turn and
spin every which way.
The noises heard on every side are in
teresting. There are the strains Of the
music coming from the carrousel, the
barking of the men extolling tho merits
Of the various refreshment booths,
drawing trade to the side shows or di-
lating on the accuracy Of the fortune
tellers' skill; the lowing of the cattle,
the Growing Of the roosters, the gunts
Of the pigs, tho bleat Of the sheep, the
neighing Of the horses. The barkers are
more numerous than ever this year, and
in the early afternoon, when their voices
are still fresh and powerful, they can
make noise enough TO drown out all
other sounds.
Each patron Of the Fair has his
] favorite spot Some gather about
the poultry pens, others visit the
swine, others show an interest in
the machinery. The fruit and vege-
/ table exhibitions draw many, and
practically all pay a visit 10 the de-
partments underneath the grand
stand. where the industrial exhibits,
needlework, preserves and other
work Of the household are located.
! Night Fair Popular.
That the public appreciates the de-
cision of the Fair management to
keep the Fair open day and night is
shown in the large attendance during
the evenings. The program has been
so arranged that important events
take place at night as we'll as in the
daytime Last nights attendance was
placed at close to 5000.
