TINE TRIALS. ONE MILE.

George Clark in his speedy Case
time-eater romped away with the first
leg of the Fort Armstrong Centennial
derby at the Davenport mile track yes
terday afternoon before a crowd of g.
900 speed fans. And George did il in
easy style, finishing just lap ahead
of his nearest rival, Eddie Hearne.
Considering condition of the track,
which was very heavy, Clark made ex-
cellent time, 1891 3-5 for the half CEN
fury, trife under 50 miles per hour.
l.. Lecocq in a Briscoe came in third,
nearly lap behind Hearne, with
Johnny Fitzpatrick a close fourth In a
Briscoe, and F. Harlow in a Maxwell,
fifth. Jack Mais in Mais special was
tagged at the end of al miles Mais
tire burst on the 37th lap. Woodbury.
in Duesenberg and Horey in a Fiat
were forced to drop out on account of
engine trouble. Woodbury. was peck
eted twice and forced off the court,
but kept his car from turning turtle BY
clever driving. The last so miles Of
the Centennial derby will be run off
Friday afternoon, the drivers being
credited with the time they made yes
terday.
The next event of interest was the
five-mile free-for-all, which was won
by Eddie Hearne in a Briscoe after
two trial heats. The first heaf"was
won by Woodbury. in the Duesenberg,
time, 5:17. The second heat went to
Wild Bill" Endicott in a Sweeney
special time, 5.47 The final heat was
featured by hair-raising finish, Har-
low and Endicott coming in just frac-
ton of second behind Hearne.
George Clark, the winner of the first
leg in the Centennial derby. also
whipped off the fastest mile of the aft
ernoon in 81 2-5. Clark accomplished
this feat in the time trials, with a fly
ing start. Lecocq won second honors
in his Briscoe, doing the course in IS
fiat. Harlow in a Maxwell took third
honors with So Is.

Mais holds the worlds mark for one
mile for women drivers. She will give
another speed exhibition Friday.
The Davenport fire department.
which is soon to take part in state
competition, gave an exhibition on the
halfmile course. A temporary FIRE
station had been erected on the
grounds for the occasion.
The program was of high class in
every detail and one of the best held
at the mile track in many years The
! majority of the cars are new and in
cluded in the entries are many of the
dirt track champions of the county.

The livestock exhibit at the
Weakley county fair last week
attracted much attention and
Weakley county was given some
notoriety through the enterprise
OF her livestock breeders for their
splendid showing here. This was
beyond a doubt the biggest live
stock exhibition ever made at q
country fair in this section, out.
side OF Memphis, where fine cat
tie from all over the United States
was shown. Take, for instance.
the fine young bull of Ed Donoho
which weighed $50 pounds at six
months of age, and the fire COWS
and bulls of Shanklin & Son and
Moran Brothers. These were
worthy of especial consideration
and received it. Then the pure.
bred Jerseys belonging to Frank
Staulcup, Tom Glass, Henry Felts
and others whose names have
escaped our memory. They also
were perfect specimens and at
tracted much attention.
This was, indeed, a most
creditable showing OF livestock
horses, mules, cattle, sheep, hogs,
and so on. There were twenty
nine head Of Duroc hogs and pigs
at the fair, thirty-three Jerseys,
nine Berkshire hogs, twenty-one
sheep, sixty.one Chester White
hogs, one black Angus bull,
thirty-one Shorthorns, four Red
Polls, two Percheron stations,
twenty-five mules, besides the
large number Of thoroughbred
horses and mares entered for
show purposes. This gives the
reader and those who were not
fortunate enough to attend the
fair a pretty good idea of what
Weakley county farmers are doing
in the way of livestock produc-
ton. Much of this progress is
due to the fair, too. Don't for
get that point.

were as follows:

The amount received from the
sale of concession privileges was
1888, which, added to the gate
receipts, entry fees, ETC., runs the
grand total receipts up to about
S., 250.00.
The association is in debt about
81, 100, it is understood, for re-
pairs and upkeep, but the above
fund will be sufficient to pay off all
the premiums, which is being
done first of all, operating ex-
penses and possibly liquidate the
outstanding indebtedness, or, at
least, a big part of it, with maybe
some left.

FAIR IN
HISTORY Of COUNTY
Tenth Annual Exhibition Of WeakIey County
Fair Association Proves a Winner.
Management Well Pleased.

That the Weakley county fair is
we'll and iudiciously managed is
proved by the exhibition of last
week-the large number OF credi-
table exhibits, the record breaking
attendance and the universal en-
dorsement given it by all who at
tended.
Other associations in this section
are announcing there will be no
fairs the coming year, various
reasons being assigned, but, sifted
down, it means that they have
been improperly managed and so
