ATTRACTIONS SECURED
FOR FAIR DAYS.
Many big surprises are in store for
the Brown County Fair visitors next
month, according to VIM. E. Engelbert,
secretary Of the Brown County Agri-
cultural Society and who has charge
Of the entertainments during Fair days.
The Fair has been set for August Is.
26 and ~, one week in advance Of the
State Fair week at st. Paul. Nothing
has been left undone to secure first
class trlctiors IA the way Of entertain
ments.
Although the fine vaudeville acts.
tent shows and free attractions secured
are Of unsual merit there can be no
doubt that the great fireworks to be
shown Tuesday and Wednesday evening
will prove to be the main feature Of
the program. These fireworks will be
bigger and more artistic than ever before.
There will be about six more set pieces
than last year. The contract closed
with the Thearle- Duffeld Fireworks
Display Company Of Chicago, with
branchesin New Y ork and San Francisco,
calls for an expenditure of 100000,
a considerably greater amount than in
former years.
This large expense was necessary to
secure one big feature Of fireworks for
each night. whose who remember what
big features look like at the state fair
know their attractiveness and can imagine
their cost. But the local officers in
charge Of the preparations for the fair
wanted to give the fair visitors the best
on the market and they secured the
following two big special features:
Closing Of Zeebruegge Habor.
First night The closing Of the harbor
of Zeebruegge during the war will be
the big feature on the opening night
of the fair. The outlines of two or
three battleships will be seen in the
background while the big guns Of the
forts are displayed.
Second night The next evening trench
warfare will form the subject Of the dis
play. There will be nest Of machine
guns with its deafening rattle and the
attack OF the opposing force. Steel
helmets Of the soldiers will be in evidence
all through the performance, reminding
the spectator Of an actual combat.
