ENTUIK.H COMINO IN.
During the entire afternoon nnd ,
n fact , the whole day , the
entries poured in nt the secretary's
oilco ! in great number , and the clerks
voro kept as busy ns been. They
Boomed very tired , but evidently satis-
led with their work , nnd answered the
[ iicstions of the newspaper man ns
graciously ns possible. "Yes , wo are
very busy , " said Mr John Gillespio ,
ol Lincoln , ono nf the assistant HOC-
otarios ; "nnd we hnvo had to delay
pine of the entries for a considerable
inio on. account of innbility to trau-
cribo them properly. They
are coming in with a rush
about this time , and there promises
, o bo mpro of them before the time
or closing the entries , to-morrow
noon , arrives. Although so fnr the
mtrios have not boon equal in nutn-
) or to tlioso of the same time last
year , still they excel them in point ot
norit. Now , in my classes , ombrac-
ng horses , poultry nnd bees and
lonoy , some of the finest entries I
vor saw have been made this after-
10011 , and I fool somewhat/ proud of
t. I have 103 entries in horses , 74
n poultry and four of nvnrios. "
TUB NKXT DIVISION

of this city. IIo has the difficult
classes of cuttle , sheep andswino to fill ,
and attends to his numeious appli
cants with great readiness nnd coler-
ty. In cattle ho had recorded 104
mtribs. representing about J100 head ,
> 0 stalls of sheep , and CO pens of
wine. Ho , too , said that the charac-
er of the entries was the best ho had
over known , and that they were com-
ng in very rapidly. As the reporter
vns standing at the window a man
rushed up in breathless liusto , dust-
talnod and'generully unkempt , with
strong evidences of spiritual excite
ment about himJand | excitedly in
quired if there was still space for
hoop. Ho was smilingly answered
hat there was , nnd forthwith entered
ix stalls of fine Merinos , which ho
ssortod ho had brought all the way
rom DCS Moinos. The sheep wcro
ntorod and ho wont off happy.
THE TltlllD DIVISION
mbrncos the Fine Arts , Textile Fa-
rics , Ploral and Discretionary. Ex-
ictly what the Inttor is , has not yet
joon found out , but it commands 12C
entries just the siuno nnd bids fair to
> o nn attractive and mixed up ussort-
nont of articles. About eighty on-
ries wore mndo in the fine arts and
ho BUIUO number in the cluss of textile

ary of this division.
OVKIl TUB HIXTII DIVISION ,

noon to-day it will bo increased to
2,000.
U. I' . DISPLAY.
The display of the U. P. railway of
( Wiotis products of this state nnd the
.erritorios is very creditable. Chief
among the display nro the specimens
> f grain upon the stock from the west
ern counties of this state , Hall ,
I'ht-lps , Kearney , Lincoln , Dawson
uid Bull'ulo. There nro over one
uuidrod varieties and they nil look
extremely well. The exhibits of corn
are very good. Thuro is ono kind ,
mrticularly , which dnucmm mention
m account of its rocoul introduction
n this state , It is called the Ynnkeo
orn , und is unexcelled for commur-
ial purposes. The fruit exhibit of
? obraskn , Idaho and Utah are lino.
J'ho pears , peaches , plums , apples and
( rapes from Utah lira fully equal in
oof(8 to thpBo grown in California ,
nd it is claimed that the flavor is us
'ood. Utah potatoes have always
con superior in quality and sumo
no specimens are uhown. Tlio ex-
hlbita of coal , iron ore , gold and sil
ver bearing quart/ from Colorado
Wyoming , Utah and Idaho nro gooc
nnd very interesting.

FOUTV OH 1IKTTKII ,
nnd a very exciting nnd interesting
race is confidently looked forward to
Tlio entries for tlio running race were
not completed at eight o'clock las
evening and did not close until nine
o'clock. It is expected that there wil
bo several fast horses in this class.
Among the trotting horses stabled on
the grounds only two are from Omaha.
Some of the speeders have very curi
ous names , ono being Boston on the
Table , a running horse reported to bo
very fast Big Soap , who has been
spoken of before , is a well known trot-
er in the west and a hard horse tc
) oat. Little Sioux's reputation nnd
record is too well known to need fur-
her mention.
Late lost evening a number of other
ast horses arrived , which , up to the
iino of writing had not as yet boon
entered. It is expected to-day that
norc will como in and that by to-
light at Isast forty horses of fast
> lood and well known pedigree and
speed will bo stabled upon the
grounds. Mr. S. Kinney , son of
Fudge Kinney , the well known mem-
) or of the stuto board presides over
his department.
TUB ELKCTIllO LIGHT ,
As announced in TUB BKK yesterday
norning * nn unlocked for accident
caused the suspension of the illumina-
ion which otherwise would hnvo tali enlace
> lace upon the grounds the night bo-
ore last.
While the power was being applied
rom the largo power engine to the
electric engine , and when the rcvolu-
, ions of the drive wheel had been
raised to two hundred a minute , an
upright beam to which was attached
ho shaft running the electric engine ,
, 'avo way at the foundation , , and sus-
> ended operations for the time being.
Che conductor of the electric engine ,
VIr. Baker , had just applied the olec-
ricity , and for a moment thu lights
all over the grounds' flashed into start
ing brilliancy ; then , as the beam gave
vay and the shaft became bent
> y the irregular pressure , the rovo-
utions ceased and the lights went
out it bccamo rumored about that the
ilectrio engine had been shaken from
ts foundation and that it was impos
sible to repair it. Such was not the
cose. The cause of the accident was
generally said to bo the unsubstantial
oundation of the upright to which it
vas attached by the shaft. In order
o successfully run the electric light
eight hundred revolutions a minutes
of the electric wheel are required , and
sixteen horse power is necessary to
naintainod by the large power en
gine. Yesterday a number of men
vero at work during iho entire ufter-
loon and evening replacing the beam
which had broken and rearranging the
shaft in such a way as to make
t perfect and secure. There is no
lucstion now but what the electric
ight will run without difficulty , nnd
lie public may feel assured that the
grounds will bo brilliantly illuminated
ivory evening during the week. The
experiments with iho light night be-
ore last proved that the current is
distributed aright and that no diffi
culty exists between the machine and
.he lamps , to which its wires conduct
iho electrical fluid. All that is neces
sary now is to maintain sufficient
power from the largo online.
Early yesterday morning the lloral
exhibits for lloral hall com-
noncod to arrive and they
vero rapidly arranged and put
n place , so that last evening every
available spot in the hall was filled
vith flowers , fruit , gr.rdon products
nul domestic machinery and the va-
lous attractions that go to make up
.ho . many beauties nlwnys to bo found
n this spacious building. In onu
ving of the building there is an es-
> ocially handsome pyramid of
canned fruit and vegetables ,
vhich are arranged in the
neat nrliatiu fashion. The display of
ogotnbk'H ia not only large mid v.iri'-d
mt also excels in assortment and
quality thai of any previous year ,
trinumoth pumpkins , squashes , choice
apples and apricots touched with the
rich hue of autumn ripeness ) , peaches ,
leara , ami n tempting collection of
mailer fruits occupy two long stands
n the hull. By noon to-day every
thing in the hall will bo in perfect
order and it will bu of itself an eihibi-
ion well worth coming to the fair to
nee.
IIUILDINQS.
The Max Meyer's building was
completely arranged yesterday , nnd
Is artistic decorations are beautiful
nnd striking , both within and without.
The B. it M. railroad company's
milding , which was completed nnd
laiidsomely painted yesterday fore-
loon , was tilled with n fine collection
> f the various classes of grain grown
ii the fertile territory through which
his road runs , and many specimens
ot woods and fruits , und in ninny re-
pecta it rivals the moro pretentious ,
nit scarcely ns handsome , structure of
of the Union Pacific company.

HtlNDllEDS OF MEN
were busily employed yesterday dur
ing Iho entire day , both cast and weal
ot power hall , arranging the miniorou !
exhibits of agricultural implements
All the prominent manufacturers of the
the country are represented and th (
display ia ono which could but bo o :
great interest to every ono whcthc ]
or not engaged in agricultural pur
suits. Numerous windmills are bcinj
erected on the north side of tin
grounds and are stretching their great
arms out to the breeze and with then
bright colora make the scene ono ol
riimarkablo attractiveness.
In the mercantile hall many attrao.
lions worn arranged , and although tin
space _ ia not fully occupied , it probably
will bo by to-day noon. During the
day exhibits from many of the conn ,
ties in tlio fltato arrived , prominent
among which was that of Burt county ,
occupying nearly a whole car in its
transportation to the fair. Two com-
panics of the Nebraska state guard ;
arrived in tlio afternoon , ono froir
Beatrice and ono from Juniatii , Capt ,
Coles , of the latter company , assum
ing command of both. Tlio two com
panies will bo detailed for police dutj
through the remainder of the fair.
They tire quartered in the largo tent
which was yesterday brought
from Lincoln , and took then
meals in the extensive dining
hall on the cast nido of the grounds.
Ono of the principal features of the
fair , the Nebraska City cornet band ,
with sixteen pieces , arrived during the
afternoon ; The boys are all good
musicians , are resplendent in now
uniforms , and have first-class instru
ments , with which they will discourse
muaio every afternoon. Last night
they serenaded the olliccs of President
Clarkson and Secretary McBride.
Ono of the novelties on the ground ,
the steam incubator , was in full blaze
yesterday and the peep , poop , peep ,
of numerous feathered youngsters
on their entry into the world
by artificial means could bo heard at
almost any hour of the day. The
conductor of the incubator promises
to hatch a chicken a minute during
the entire fair.
The activity manifested by exhib
itors yesterday , tlio admirable ar
rangements of every thing in connec
tion with the fair and the unusual
troata which are to be offered visitors
are enough in themselves to indicate
the untiring efforts of the state board
to make this fair the greatest success
in this line over arrived at by Ne
braska.
Gentlemen who arrived yesterday
on the ground from various parts of
the state are unanimous in expres
sions of opinion that the crowds
which will come in to-morrow and
next day will aggregate from twenty to
twonty-fivo thousand and it is stated
that every man , woman and child in
the lower counties are intending to
put'in an appedranco during the latter
part of the exposition. Two excur
sions are coming from Lincoln
on Thursday" and Friday. The
first of which will bo accom
panied by the cadet band
of Lincoln , which will remain until
the conclusion of the fair. Trans
portation to tlio grounds from the
city is amply provided lor.
A largo number of citizens complain
of the increase in faro from B to 10
cbnts by the street railroad and Super
intendent Marsh is severely censured.

agers last evening the following pro-

A Queer Sight-
Early last evening a portable engine
Lo which was attached a heavy thresh
er , passed through the principal streets
of the city. The engine wheezed and
'aspod as if it wore in mortal agony ,
and the limit of its strength seemed
; o hava been reached in hauling the
cumbersome machine. The pulling
and snorting of the engine frightened
several teams and runaways were the
result. Fortunately no particular
damage was done in this respect , so
'ar as heard from. The engine made
a blockade in every street through
which it passed , and no end of trouble
was the result. That it should have
icon allowed at all to pass through
; ho main thoroughfares is altogether
unexplainable.

The water works mains have boon
illed up to a pressure higher than will
) o necessary hereafter , and in the
hirty miles of pipe but twenty-two
> rcaks and leaks were discovered. It
ras expected that there would bo at
east ono hundred to repair , and this re
sul t is consequently considered very sat-
sfactory. Most of the breaks are duo
o the fact that the company was com
icllcd to allow about 25,000 feet of
> ipo to Ho in the street during the
vinter. These became filled with
mud and water which were frozen ,
'ho water has again boon completely
trained from the mains so that they
an now bo considered perfectly
loan. All the water has been
omovcd from the clear water basin so
s to allow it to , bo bricked and co
montcd. This aftornoou the
> ipes will ull bo tilled with clear water
md kept so hereafter. About six
onnections a day are being made
vitli houses , and those can bo sup-
iliod with river water after to-day
