Johnny Raimey, flirter with death, and Fred Horey, Min- nesota lad, are all entered iat Hamline. 3 GENERAL PROGRAM.—A world" of ‘en- tertainment has been arranged for the 1915 Minnesota State Fair and Exposition—some- thing doing all the time. Beginning Sun- day afternoon with a splendid band concert by the Minneapolis Municipal Park Band, supported by a chorus of 250 voices, and-con- tinued throughout the week with scores of features never witnessed before in the North- west, it terminates Saturday afternoon with the strongest combined auto racing and aviation program ever held in the middle west. AVIATION.—Art Smith, “King of the Air,” for ten weeks the amusement feature ; at the Frisco Exposition, will be at Hamline 4 the.entire week..-Nothing is too daring for - ; = him to do. His night loops in a blaze of ¢ £ ored lights and fireworks will never be for- - WA Art Smith does only extraordinary hings. Stunts performed by other aviators are scorned by him. He has turned more loop-the-loops in succession than any other 3 airman, over thirty having been made at'one time. Nor does he loop-the-loop like others;: for his machine looks like a whirling:leaf on 5-its way down to the ground. The: peculiar % “gide-roll” performed by Smith’s machine is i 'distinctively his own. = Smith is master of a ¥ night performance which has:never been at- 2 tempted by any other aviator. - In it his aft- % ernoon performance is repeated in the dark- gotten. ol % mess, the gyrations in the air being seen by } means of a series of colored lights, red, green % and yellow predominating. Just before he % turns his last series of loops, Smith releases:a § fireworks display, whirling over and.over in 4 a blaze of flying light. This act has stirred % the amusement world more than any other ever attempted. ; { BATTLE IN THE AIR.—As an added at- Jd traction for Saturday afternoon, and at great /cost, Patterson’s aviators have been booked to give a thrilling demonstration:of an aerial i battle between two aeroplanes. One will at- H tempt to destroy a fortified city in the ene- my’s country; the other will defend it.. Spe- i cfally prepared bombs and other harmless hlgll explosives will be used. A troup of riflemen will attempt to assist the aeroplane i‘zthat is defending the city and destroy the £ gostlle airship by rifle fire. There will be a {3 head on collision in the air between thetwo ‘machines, and one of the machines will:be so-injured that it will drop to the earth like a‘plummet. A miracle prevents its destruc- ¥ tion. This thrilling act was originated only il three months ago and has been engaged by practically all the great American fairs. It will ‘be certain to prove one of the big at- ‘ tractions-of the Minnesota State Fair. HORSE RACING.—The large entry list émetved'in the early closing purses is ample “¥proof that a splendid horse racing program will be held. There will be four harness' % and two running races each. afternoon 1% of the first five days. Special features will be the two team races—one for trotting 1} teams on _Monday and the other for pacers % ‘on:Thursday. AUTO RACES.—Wow! Do not be in- duced to believe that there will be no aute races at the Minnesota State Fair this year, * regardless of what you may be told. A ro- as any ever given at the State Fair grounds, if not better. Among the drivers entered 2 are Tom Alley, holder of the world’s 100- 2 mile dirt track record; Ralph Mulford, holder i Louis: Disbrow, holder of more world’s dirt ] track records than any other: driver; “Wild Bill” Endicott and Eddie Hearne, drivers in more races than any other, with the possible exception-of Barney Oldfield;’ Tommy Mil: lon .and-Fred Horey, both Minnesota boys of : i national reputation; . Lee Gunning, :Joseph. Biancha and other well known speed kings. parlors| % grany has been arranged that will be as.good « of the world’s 200-mile dirt track record; . . such ‘well known drivers as Ralph De Palma, Bob Burman, and others, prompted the American Automobile Association to bar women drivers from any other races sanc- tioned by it, an acknowledgment of her su- periority over them all. GRANDSTAND NIGHT SHOW.—Each evening ithe “War of Nations,” a gigantic fireworks spectacle portraying the destruc- tion, by gun fire and airship-attack, of a b'e- seiged city in the European war zone, will be produced. Over 300 persons will take part in it. It will be supplemented by auto polo and other high class entertainment fea- tures. In thrilling effects nothing was ever attempted in pyrotechnics that compares with it. It is presented on a mammoth stage 450 feet wide. The drama depicts the de- struction of a town in the western fighting area of Europe before the attack of an en- veloping army. The coming of the enemy is heralded by an‘aeroplane-that scouts up over the horizon. An aeroplane gun shells the stranger and puts it to flight. A little later, a: flock of aeroplanes and dirigibles ‘swarms into view and opens a fire of bombs upon the town. The long columns of the enémy at the same time rush-to the assault. There is savage fighting in front of the trenches. Great cannons roar. Machine guns play streams: of fire upon the hostile ranks. Shells burst incessantly. The town catches fire. The Gothic cathedral falls in ruins. Public edifices and homes go up in flames. Soon the once prosperous town is a tumbled mass of wreckage in a blackened waste. In an interlude before the battle, a. dozen‘acts of high-class vaudeville are inter- polated. After the fighting, two beautiful tableaux are staged. One typifies “The Hor- rors of War”; the other, “The Blessings: of Peace” The performance closes with an exhibition of dazzling fireworks. AUTO POLO.—This dangerous and excit- ing ‘game was so well received at the 1914 fair that it was thought advisable to repeat it. It cannot be:described; it must be seen to be appreciated. It is to be played before the Grand stand each afternoon and even- ing. : VAUDEVILLE.—A dozen or more open- air acts, selected with care from the best which the world offers, will be staged before the Grand stand each afternoon and evening, three being used constantly. In the afternoon this vaudeville will supplement the horse racing. HORSE SHOW.—Beginning Monday night and continuing-until Friday evening, a regu- lar “Horse ‘Show: Program” will ‘be held in the Live Stock Pavilion. ~Some: of: the best knownistables of saddle and’harness horses have been entered. : Each-night: it will be ‘preceded by a gigantic parade of prize-win- ning cattle and-horses, valued at hundreds of ‘thousands-of dollars. ‘WORLD AT ‘HOME.—At' the ‘lip of the Eagoon, near the:Live Stock Barns, will be located a‘series-of amusement shows under the auspiees of the World at Home Com- pany. Wildanimals, a: wild-west show, and other clean, high-class - features will 'be shown. ‘MUSIC.—There will be seven big bands. 3 The Minneapolis Municipal Park-Band, one .of the ‘highest: priced: bands: in::the .country, the Minnesota State -Band, the.
