RAIN REDUCES

MERGERS SHOW
Usual Banner Friday Crowd Fails
Below Expectations Owing to
Condition of Grounds.
(Spec4alAo The Argus.)

Aledo, Sept 16.-A1I hope of
having the usual Friday attend
ance at the fair vanished this
morning with the heavy rain The
roads to the. fair grounds being OIL
ed, are still in good condition, but
the grounds are extremely muddy
and most OF the visitors are
equipped with boots or OvershoeS
A great deal of trouble was expe-
rienced in getting autos in and out
Of the grounds, mud holes being
numerous.
Despite the weather the attend
ance last night at the fair was
good. The amphttheatre was filed
to capacity during the free attrac-
tons and fireworks. The muddy
condition of the tracks made it i'm
possible to have the horse show
as planned. Only one race was
run yesterday.
Plans for continuing the base
ball tournament and racing pro-
gram We're made this morning, fair
officials stating that every race
scheduled would be run, weather
permitting. Exhibition tents claim
ed a great deal of attention yester-
day, as all visitors were forced to
seek shelter at least four times
during the day. The Davenport
who is taking passengers
at the grounds did a big business
late in the afternoon, the air seem
ing to be the only place where one
could escape the mud.
The regular program will be
carried out tonight in front of the
