Sure You Are.
Are you going to the fair grounds
To see the Big Free Fair?
You had better take the family
There's lots to see out there.
There's the steer from Greenwood county,
He weighs ten tons more;
He ought to weigh hundred tons
And does when he's not poor.
There's the horse show and the sideshow,
And II you lean that way.
You'll have no trouble finding there
A chance to cut up gay.
There's the papa bull of bulldom
And little bulls galore;
There's the chicken queen of chickdom
And chickens by the score!
There's the races you can bet on,
All kinds of sport and fun,
And II you pick the winners right
You'll make a lot of "mon."
Sure, you can't afford to miss it,
Doll up, go every day,
You'll never miss the time you lose,
It's worth the price you'll pay.

HUGHES SERENE
And CONFIDENT
Takes First Real Rest in Last
Twenty-one Weeks.
(By the International News Service.

(By the International News service0
New York, Nov. 5.-Probably the most
serenely confident man, politically, in New
York today was Charles Evans Hughes.
On the ground that he had said his last
say at the Madison Square Garden DEM
onstration Saturday night, the Republican
Presidential candidate declined to make
any statements. He talked freely with
bis friends, however, and was in better
shape. physically, in better spirits, and
had a more definite view Of the result Of
Tuesdays election than at any time since
the opening of his campaign.
To the correspondents who had made
the long coast-to-coast journey with HIM
he practically remarked this atmosphere
Of confidence and victory which perme-
ated the Hughes private apartments In
the Hotel Astor.
Hughes absolutely believes he will be
elected President Tuesday.
When the candidate awoke at 10 o'clock
this morning with nothing to do for the
first time since last June, actually twenty
one weeks had elapsed since a similar
awakening the day following his nomina-
tion-except that he then had all the labor
of the campaign ahead of him. In :he
intervening period the candidate declared
today, the issues have unfolded in pre-
cisely the same manner which he had
hoped for, right down to last nights dent
onstration in mis- home State, which
Eughes considers the climax of the entire
campaign, and the point where the rest
can be left in the hands of the voters.
His work done, he will now quietly
await the action of the voters Tuesday.
Tonight. the candidate and Mrs. Hughes
spent with their grandchildren.
Tuesday he will vote in a laundry in
Eighth avenue near Forty-fifth street,
and in the evening, with his family, and
no one else, around him, he wiH-receiee
the returns in his private apartments in
the Astor, into which two telegraph wires
