The amusement program of the
1880 Stearns County Fair which will
be held at Sank Centre, Aug. IL,
II and 13, is a distinct departure
from the ordinary free acts one
sees at most county fairs.
In former years the acts have
been booked for the entire dura-
ton of the fair. This year there
will be a complete change of pro-
gram and people each of the three
days, with the exception of a pony,
dog and goat show which will ap-
peal to the Riddles every day.
Last weeks Herald called atten-
ton to the novelty relay 10-mile
running race. Each entry will con-
sist of three horses to be ridden
without saddle. Three miles will
be run Tuesday, three miles We'd
nesday and four miles Thursday.
The same horses and same rider
must go through each day and be
relayed in turn. This race will fill
with four teams of three each.
There will be three cash prizes for
this event, as follows: First, 500;
second, $500; third, $4,000. This
race has proved a sensation where
ever tried, and all entries must be
green or farmers horses.
The Herald is publishing in vari-
Gus parts of the paper illustrations
of some of the headline acts for
the fair. The following short de-
scriptions of several of the acts
