FAIR AT GAINESVILLE A BIG sue.
CESS

There were about fifty Ocala people
in Gainesville yesterday attending the
Alachua County Fair, now in full blast
in that city. Among these visitors
were Messrs. Sam Igou, D. w. Temp
kins. John r. Martin, Col r. L. An
derson. w. D. earn, E. c. Bennett,
Charles w. Hunter, and others. The
gentlemen mentioned went especially
to interview the horsemen at the rae
es in that city, and secured the prom
Use of about forty fine racers at our
fair next week. Mr.. Igou and Mr.
] Tompkins have charge of this feature
of our fair.
Mr.. Tompkins told us last night that
the free for all'' race at Gainesville
yesterday afternoon was what he con-
sidered real horse race" one of
the best ever pulled off in the state,
and if these horses are brought to
our city the visitors to the fair will
indeed be treated to something fine
along this line.
These gentlemen say that besides
] the racing feature of the Gainesville
fair the live stock exhibit is simply
great, and the agricultural exhibit and
other exhibits are also good.
The attendance has been splendid
since the opening day, but that yes
terday proved a record breaker, there
being at least 5000 persons on the
grounds during the day Everybody
is delighted with the fair and declare
that it is the finest ever held in
Alachua county in point of exhibits
as well as attendance
| The efforts and success of these
gentlemen in securing these horsemen
with their fine racers to visit our fair
are certainly to be commended, and
this along with our industrial parade
and the many other attractive features
of our approaching fair is an absolute
assurance that our fair next week will
eclipse anything heretofore attempted
by the Marion County Fair Associa-
ton.
