There are other things at the (air, which attract them and important among tiiem is the amusement part. Then again there are hundreds, especially among the young people of the smaller towns and the country, who tnaks the annual pilgrim age to the fair one for an annual good time and as a general rule they go home feeling that they have bad a week of great fun and enjoyment. This year it would be bard to tell just what part of the amusement line will be the most' attractive. There will be the Midway, of coi Everybody Ukes the Midway, an', would not think of visiting the f without spending a part of the time on that delightful thorough fare with its shows of a docen different kinds. It is true that some of the shows are not up to the standard ot high class audevlUe or grand opera, but when one got to the Midway show he goes (or fun and as a general thing does not, kick if the shows do not paa out along i big show lines. , Probably tha greatest attraction On the fair grounds this year and the one which will attract the most people, with the possible exception of the races, is the Wild West Frontier Shows, which will give their exhibition each (day on the quarter stretch In front of the big grand stand.' These Wyoming show are the same which were gives before President Taft aud ex-president Roosevelt, when they made their tour ot the west some time since, and are not excelled by any wild west affair of the present time. That the entertainment givu by the reckless and dare evll cowboy con nected with the Frontier shows will be of a sensational character In not disputed. People who have seen them state that It is simply wonderful what those cowboys and cowgirls, too, can do while riding at reckless speed on the backs of the wild western bronchos. ' Among the most interesting stunts which they will pull oft are; . - . Catching and buldogglng steers from an automobile. , A handicap race between an automobile, race horse, cow cony and an Indian on foot A relay race between cowboys and cow-J gins. , Champion cowgirl rough, rider on a wild broncho. A race around the track between wild horses. Trick and fancy riding. These are only a very tew of the in teresting things which will be seen at the SYontier shows. One feature ot the Frontier shows which is deserving of special mention is a fight between Indians and white men. The In dians attack a stage coach and; the scene is one which always thrills the beholder. An old-fashioned stage coach pulled by halt a docen. horses is seen making Its way across the country, with its escort of Indian ftghtera " Suddenly a band of savage Indians break into view and a running fight is on between the two. It is a hair-raising and most thrilling spec tacle and must be seen to be appreciated. That the management is expecting large crowds to witness this part ot the enter tainment Is evidenced by the fact that notwithstanding the big grandstand holds (.600 people, the bleacher are being ex tended to that then will be room for about S.0W more. In the evening the quarter stretch will be lit up for the use of the other perform ance which will be placed in front of the grandstand. Vaudeville artist ot ex cellent reputation will give shows after the hlght races are over. And speaking of the night races, do not forget that this feature of the amusement program will be worth going to see. The track will be lit up by electricity so that the races can be seen nearly a plainly as in the daytime. And some Of the best races of the fair will be seen at the night events. ; Then after all the rest of the program is over for the day a stupendous amount ot fireworks will close the evening's en tertainment so that the day from 9 in the morning until 10 at night will be one round of pleasure. t v - The race program throughout the week, both day and evening, will be excep tionally good. The entries at this time how some of the best horses in the coun try, many ot them fresh from the great Grand circuit, which means that the best will be present , , Columbia Fire, the fast little horse which has been astonishing people all over the country, will be present during the week and ha been entered tor many races. This is a Lincoln horse and for that reason will be all the more ot an attraction. Nebraska take a back seat for no other state In any department of the state fair and it will be exceedingly satisfactory to be able to see on the track the tast little Nebraska horse which has been throwing the race track dust in the (aces of all competitors on the Grand circuit When one gets to writing about the many good things in the amusement line at the Nebraska state fair, each one of them seems to be just a little more at tractive than the others, so that one 1 at a loss to really distinguish which 1 the best However, wa will venture the assertion that there is one feature which will bring the people In the stands to their feet when it Is pulled off. We refer to the relay race. Eight entries have already been made In this race. It la a ten-mile affair and the riders will change horse oa to run in front of the grand stand each, time they pass. What will make these races the more attractive Is that a part of the riders will be women and will compete with the men for the prises. In closing we must not forget to call attention to the musical features of the fair.. Everybody win be glad to know that literati's band, with it special choruti and soloists, wiil" be at the fair again this year. This alone is an attrac tion which many consider worth seeing, even if everything else at the fair wa a failure. Thl band is one of the best In the world .and its soloists are counted the pick of the country. The segregation will give concerts in the Auditorium every day and at other places on the grounds. Another pleasing feature will be the band from the Boys' Industrial school at Kearney. This band will do most of its playing In front of the grandstand and everybody will! have a chance to see and hear what the iboys in the charge of the state can do. , - .
