Doforo 10 o'clock the
to-day grounds were
thronged with peoplo. The nttondnnco at
this hdJr would bavo made the day a suc
cess , but the crowd continue ; ! to swell In
number * until after midday , nnd at 2 o'clock
fully 40,000 pc'oplo were talcing In the uttrao
tlons. The multitude snomod to bo A unit In
pronouncing tlio fair the greatest the stnto
lias ever given.
'The morning hours gave some ovldoncoi of
rmn. But the clouds lifted ns tlio day ad
vanced , and on the whole It virus oool nnd
pleasant. Indeed , /alror day for the expo-
Bittern could not have been imagined. Ucgu-
lar and special trains from all parts of tno
state were taxed to the utmost , and the sauia
thine can bo said of the uouvoyancos to nnd
from tlio grounds. This , lit a manner , ex
plains the phenomenal attendance. The
management expresses the utmost sat'sf.io- '
tlon at the Indications , nnd state that with
continued fair weather the morrow will
moro than uicot the attending expanses.
Financially , therefore , the fair is
already nn nssurnd success. A
member of the state board of agriculture In
formed TUB BEB representative that 8,000
complimentary tickets had boon Issued uud
that thcro was still clamor for moro.
A pen picture that would adequately do-
scrlbn the ourfilnt ? crowds of to-day would bo
nn Impossibility. Every platform containing
nn exhibit was nhvo with people all day long.
In Agricultural , Horticultural nnd Art halls
they were packed lllco sardines m u box. It
was utmost Impossible to crowd through the
alleyways , nnd ono had to bo carried with
the going and coining throngs. But the 1m-
iilemeutnnd machinery displays are upon o
higher plane of Interest than former years ,
Kvorything conceivable that yields to thu
band of man Is to bo seen. Beautifully
painted steam threshers , the Corliss engines ,
the phanon , the carriage , the perfectly con
structed wagon of to-dav , the silver display
plow , the plow equipped for tlio Held , the
shelter , hand nud power , the drill and seeder ,
and harvesting machines of every pattern
and description Invites attention and ml mi
ration. Ono cannot do the state fair for 18S9
in a stnglo day.inn

nated buildings. The line of march passes

all gotten up with rare taste , but everybody
agrees that the arch on South Eleventh

pillars are decorated witn corn stalks and
the nrch Is covered with electric lights. The
" "words , "Welcome to the Nebraska State
Fair , " emblazon either sido. The other

Stito Fuir Notes.
Two pickpockets \\cro arrested on the
grounds to-day. They plucked snvoral pock
ets , hownvcr , before they were discovered.
They were sent to the county Jail and will
have a hearing on next Monday.
Lottie , the six-year-old daughter of Super
intendent O'Brien , of the state fisheries , was
thrown from a back In coming to the grounds
to-day , and narrowly cscapad a frightful
death , tier head came within two inches of
being crushed by the wheels.
Senator ICeckley , of vork , was u visitor
to-day. His lumcncss , resulting from an old
nrmy wound , is getting better.
Henry T. Clarke , of Oumhn , was on the
grounds to-day.
A gentleman remarked to-day that ho
thought II would bo propsr for the Lincoln
humane scoloty to look nftor the man who
works on the treadmill that maices the cider.
Good judges put the crowd to-dav -10,000. .
Judge T. O. C. Harrison , Grand Island ,
visited the state fair to-day.
The marriage of the "Korn King" and the
"Grass Widow" will toke place Thursday
afternoon at 3 o'clock nttheSaunders county
exhibit , the Uev. Peter Lansing , of Tutan ,
emulating.
Juiigo J. E. Cochran , of McCook , was at
the stuto fair to-day.
Art Hall.
Youth nnd beauty , ns well as ago and SD-
bcrncss , are to bo scon at nil times during
the day in this veritable fairy bower , and
such expressions as "Oh , my , Isn't this love
ly 1" are heard at every turn. These exclam
atory commendations , emanating from the
myriads of the fair sox who haunt this build
ing and keep up a ceaseless tramp in search
of the beautiful , are not extravagant , but on
the contrary ara well deserved. Everybody
agrees that the exhibition In art hall for 1889
doubly discounts that of any ether year. No
newspaper report can do it Justice , and for
ono to attempt an enumeration would bo sim
ply to court on endless tour which , though
pleasant as were the folry walks In the gar
den of Eden , would to a common mortal end
m such heartache * and headaches as would
drive one mad. Thornforo nothing of the
kind will bo attomptodj and only a few of
the more notable will bo mentioned.
Music , which Is said to soothe the sava go
breast , is having much the same effect on
the visitors nt the fair and the tlrms which
show musical Instruments in Art hall have
more people surrounding their displays than
any ether on the ground.

is that of Max Meyer & Bro. , of Omaha nnd

The Marseilles 1'roclucttons.
Farmers and dealers generally in agricul
tural implements scorned to take particular
interest in scanning the Adams corn shelter
and ether goods shown by the Marseilles
Manufacturing company , of Marseilles. 111.
A competent force of gentlemanly salesmen
were on hand to show the line to the vis
itors. Mr. U. II. Adams , the company's
assistant secretary from the homoolUee , was
present , as was also Manager \V. S. Cass ,
who Ins charge of the ovlilblt and the com
pany's business in Nebraska and western
Iowa , with headquarters at Council UlutTs.
Messrs , Weirick and Howlev , two of the
company's nblo road reprosantutlvos , ware
also on hand.
Corn a hellers for either hand or power are
the most seasonable goods now shown , and
It was on the superior merits of those farm
ing necessities that our rural visitors mani
fested much Interest and admired the various
features of those excellent machines. Aside
from these an attractive line of windmills ,
cultivators , feed grinders , cornstalk cutters ,
bobsleds , horse powers and other forming
utensils , all constructed on the most practi
cal plans for durability , strength and adapt
ability for the work.
The Marseilles make of implements are
recognized nmong the very best made and
novcr-fall to find a ready sale In all parts of
the country. Many Improvements have been
made in the past few years that have been of
great udvuiiUgo and have uroven a blessing
to the tiller of the soil. Of course this has
made friends for this popular make and cre
ated u larger demand than ever for these
goods.
There nro KOIUO historical points in connec
tion with the manufacture of the Adams
cornsholler that are of more than passing
notice. Mr. A. Adams , president of this
company , Is the original inventor of the belt
feeding cornshollor , and holds the dlstlne-
Item of having established , at Elgin , 111. , the
llrst foundry and machine tihops ever started
west of Lake Michigan ; also of having
bought the first bard coal uud pig iron oyor
sold la Chicago ,
Mover's Onrriaijo Display.
Of the fifty exhibits in the vehicle line ,
none excel the showing mudo by tbo well
known and reputable house of H. A. Meyer ,
of Syracuse , N. V , These goods liavo been
on the market for the pasfbovontcan years ,
nnd not only are they to-day bolter known
than the average makes , but In keeping with
their reputation so many Improvements have
boon made every season , until now the
Meyer jobs have no equal lu the market
where line goods ore appreciated.
Mr. L. C. Hill , wno has been la tbo car
riage trade In Nebraska for the past
tun years , la the ofticlont representative
of this popular factory In the west und
has his headquarters In Omaha. Mr.
Hill is assisted ut the fair by local agent
Mr , J , T. Jones , of ttm city , who is taking
good care of all callers , nnd the exhibit of
line jobs Is such as to ollnlt both pratsp und
favorabla comment from all who see thorn.
Mr , Jones handles a complete line of Meyer
cari-iaf-a ut his repository , northeast corner
Tenth and N streets ( leoond floor ) , as well
as a tlno line of goods of other manufacturers.
Ho has boon engaged In' thli line of business
for a number of yearv nnd as ho thoroughly
understand * every detail is building up a
profitable pntronngi ; . Mr. Jones is ono of
Lincoln's oldest nndj-hlost popular citizens ,
ha vine resided In the ( Japltnl city nlnco 1870 ,
and having during that time hold the re
sponsible position of .city treasurer for six
consecutive yoars.
The goods In the ( llsplay show the finest
workmanship in ptmotons , surreys , sidebars ,
spring wagons , Meyer banner wagons , Con-
cordi nnd numerous others. Of the Meyer
manufacture of vehicle. little can bo said
that would add to tholr already excellent
reputation , The construction Is Bclentlllo
nnd practical , the painting and finishing the
best of art work , wliilo thn durability Is nn
ever scccossful foaWfo of tholr Jobs , nnd as
for prices , they nro dlWnys as low as is con
sistent with flno goods nnd flrst olasn work
manship nnd thorough reliable material.
The J. I , Cnso Plow Works'
Prominent nmong the exhibits of imple
ments Is the attractive display made by the
J. I. Case Plow works , ot Haclno , Wis. The
work is in charge of the Nebraska agency ,
which is located at Omaha , and Manager O.
C. Troxoll is on the grounds with the follow
ing corps of nbto assistants : Messrs. N , U.
Klzor , D. Thomson , C. G. Drynnt nnd
William Saboy , nil of whom endeavor to onj
tcrtaln all callers to the best of tholr ability ,
which Is by no moans meagre.
In the array of farming necessities wo
note a now sulky plow , built on three wheels.
The advantage of this plow ever all others is
that It is moro compact , stronger nnd con
structed entirely on scientific principles.
With this machine any sort ofnconicr , from
the longest turn to n square , can easily bo
mado. The now combined lister nnd drill
ntiractod considerable attention from the
visitors and its merits were Justly appreci
ated by every interested observer. It is the
only lister mudo with n wheel attachment
that will regulate depth , lighten the draft
and at the same time give steady motion ,
and is guaranteed to pull one horse lighter
than any ether mnchlno of the kind.

Western Mnnttf'.icturini ; Co.
The characteristic enterprise of the West
ern Manufacturing company , of Lincoln , is
manifest on the grounds again this year.
Ono could not find a liner display of farm
Implements , machinery , uuggios , carriages ,
phaetons and spring wagons in a year's
travel than this company has on exhibition.
This display is situated at the very cato of
the vast array of implement halls nnd plat
forms , and Is under the direct oupermtcnd-
enc ofM. D. Welch , tfcocrotary and treas
urer of the company , than whom
no ono knows bettor how to exhibit goods.
For years Mr. Welch was the stnto n ont of
the Cnldwell Wagon company , und ho has an
acquaintance second to none nmong the old-
time traveling in Oil of the state , and
wherever known bis word is us good as gold.
Ho is efficiently assisted by U. F. Connor ,
0110 of the company's regular traveling men ,
una R. H. Uathborn. II. J. Welch is the
acting president und Wl'W. ' Marsh , superin
tendent of shops. This trio of business men
are making implement. interests hum , and
the company is fast taking front rank among
the manufacturers ol the great west. Among
the seasonable goods the company has on ex
hibition may bo mentioned the Climax end
Kate , the Doilaiico ona-bolo ahcllnr uud the
Capital horse power. Tlio device and implements -
plomonts mentioned , arp o modern patent ,
perfect in construction , easy to ouoratc , de
sirable and equal to anything of the kitul
in use. Tbo end gate is without a Deer. It
is substantial , durable and convenient. It
can bn lowered \yithouttho driver's having
to get off the wnion. It can bo used as a
dump at warehouses , saves time , and no
farmer , tcamstor or grain man can afford to
bo without one. Iron flexible barrows , Cap
ital stock cutters. Capital planters , Union
sulky hay rakes , Caultal mowers and Capi
tal chock mowers are also prominent in the
catalogue ot the company's machinery , and
tboy swell their mugniticont collection on
exhibition. Hut the "writo'up" of this ox-
Inblt would bo Incomplete without mention
ing the Maud S National side springs buggy ,
surreys , Park wagons , the Kotchum and
Perry road cart , the Toylorthree-sprlng and
combination wagon and the Ludlow and
Corning pump soati. In short , the company
is prepared to fill "any order that "runs on
wheels/ ' Last , but not least , comes the
cooporaco manufacturing plant. Although
the company turns out CUO barrels and tierces
each day , it is impossible to fill the orders
coming in from day to day. The company
owns Its own timber and mills , which are
located in Arkansas , and within the next
thirty days expects to double the manufac
turing capacity. This is fast becoming ono
of tbo great industries of the state and west ,
is growinir In popularity every day , and because -
cause of the superiority of the goods turned
out.

The state board of transportation received
a letter from the county attorney of Pawnee
county , to-day , requesting that the Burling
ton railroad company bo urged to drain the
"Y" ut Table Rock. It appears that the
"Y" is constructed so that whenever heavy
rains como , the waters dam up , and In tlmo
become stagnant and a consequent breeder
of sickness and disease. The "request" Is
couched In words that mean that something
will bo done if it is Ignored.
