COLORED FAIR A GREAT SUCCESS
IN EVERY WAY

The Colored Fair last week was a
real one in every sense of the term.
1t is fast becoming flrst-class fair.
1t had the spirit, attractions and
crowds of a real fair. The Maysvillo
Colored Fair has become one Of
Mavsville's valuable assets The
merchants did a tremendous business
with the colored people Saturday. A
mere stroll through the business dis
trict would have readily convinced one
OF this fact.
The order and conduct of the color
ed people at the parks, on the streets
and in the cars was the best seen here
In the opinion of some of the Oldest
inhabitants it was the largest crowd of
OF colored people ever seen in Mays
vile. The dances in the casino Of
beautiful Beechwood Park were
among the most graceful and orderly
ever seen there. One hundred couples
Of the four hundred who attended the
dance Saturday night were on the door
a. one time. Whites Orchestra fur
nished as fine music as any outside or
chestra could have given The stock
and show rings were the best and our
old friend, Jack Higgins won the blue
ribbon over his son, Tom Higgins for
the best owned horse and buggy by a
colored person; while Messrs. John
and Thomas Savage walked away with
the blue ribbon for the best owned au-
tomobile by colored person.
Prof. William Rogers, the Black
King of the Air, made the best bal
loon ascension ever seen here. He Is
truly the dare devil of the heavens.
The ascent of the balloon and the de-
scent of the parachute were perfect
Because of Prot Rogers gentlemanly
ways and his wonderful ballon ascen-
sion. the band paraded him past the
grand stand while the immense crowd
standing gave him the ehautauQua
salute.
The Floral Hall display was an art
of beauty. and the Blue Ribbon Band,
home talent by the way, and the cake
walks surpassed everything along this
respective lines.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there Is al least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, requires
a constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby de-
stroying the foundation of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing its work. The
