appearance of Cresceus aa the main fea
ture of the day the atate fair closed this
afternoon after one of the most. If not
the most . successful, week In the history
of the organization. The blowing- of the
whistles Immediately after the trot of
Cresceus announced the close and hundreds
Of people left the grandstand without wait
Ing- for the .finish of the schedule races.
" Cresceus made his mile today In 2:12 with
out exerting; ' himself or attempting to
lower his. record. The track was soft and
for that reason his driver did not let him
out except In the stretches and there he
net a fast clip. He made the first quarter
in 0:82, the second In 1:05, the third In
l:38Vfc and rounded up at home In 2:12. Con
Idering the track It was a most wonderful
exhibition and It pleased the crowd. The
horse was given the same oration as he
was the day ha lowered the world'a record
for a half-mile track, Hia owner was
cheered lust the same and so was the
automobile and Old Mike, the racer.
The parade of fine stock, which occurred
this morning, was witnessed by an Im
mense crowd notwithstanding the threaten
ing weather. The procession was headed
by Hagenow's band, then a trap with Sec
retary Furnas and President Dlnsmore, the
addle horses from Hebron, the Shetland

W fair we have had, in my opinion.
said Secretary Furnas. "We have had
better exhibits, more of them, better races.
more of them, more stock and the attend
nn has -been all that could be asked. I
feel certain when we figure up the finan
cial part of the week that we will come
out well."
The midway and the eating houses, the
lemonade stands and everything connected
Vlth the fair apparently has had a big
week. It certainly has been a big one for
Lincoln hotels and restaurants. People
have been here since last Friday, some of
them coming miles and. miles, and they
have never missed a day of eating and
Ming the sights. The university, the
State farm, the penitentiary and the state
house have been objects of Interest and
each, of these places has entertained its
visitors. The state house especially has
been crowded every day and the dome was
inhabited. ,
