TIE CHICAGO. TRIBUNE: SUNDAY, 'S PTEMBER THEIR FIRST FAIR. The First Annual Exhibition of the Chicago Fair Asso- ciation. Everything in Connection with the “Coming Event Affords a Most Promising Outlook. Busy Scenes at the Chicago Driving Park--The New Buildings, Stalls, Pens, Ete. Ample Accommodations for Every Feature —The Steeple-Chase “ Buns” and “ Jumps.” Extensive Arrangements for Feeding and Sleeping the Crowds—A Brilliant Program. The Chicago Driving Park, at which very convenient and desirable location will be held next week the first annual exhibition of -the Chicago Fair Association, was visited yesterday by a ‘TurBcNeE reporter with aview to ascertaining what material improvements hhad been and were to be made on thegrounds to insure the success of the grand enterprise, so far, at least, as the accommodation of ex- hibitors and visiters might be concerned. The reporter was accompanied on his tour of in- spection by Mr. J. M. Dunlap, who, as Super- intendent of grounds and a veteran in that Jine of work, having been connected with various , successful fair associatio in different cities, directed attention to the most prominent of the conveniences and attractions offered to the public in the present instance. From all that was noticed, jt may be reasonably predicted thatone week from tomorrow will see Chicago provided with a fair ground which is second to none in the country, either in point of general ac- *eommodation or management, to say nothing. of the very flattering inducements offered in the way of $59,000 worth of premium The park was found to be in poss nearly 200 carpenters and 2 proportionately large force of teamsters and general laborers. ‘The vast area was DOTTED WITH BRIGUT-LOOKING NEW BUILD- IN either completed or in course of completion, while the continual hum and rattle Kept up by the busy workinen with saw and hammer added to the very live appearance of the scene. The work is already so far advanced that everything wil! doubtless be in readiness a day or two before the opening. Stalls and sheds for the keeping of horses and cattle have been provided to the numn- ber of nearly 900, urany of them double. ‘The cattlesheds, which are 8x16 in size, extend frum the main entrance on Madi west along the line of the high beard fence to Fortieth street and_ thence, south to the Fortieth street gate. 2, and They numbe each one will accommodate a cow or two cattle. ‘The horse stalis—all box—extend from the Fortieth street gate south to the fence, then zast to the fence, and then north some Jeet. Besides this there are the * California stables,” parallel with the west fence just 3outh of the Fortieth street gate and the * sections”? directly across the common drive. The total number of stalls is 640. The space alloted to each stallion is x8, to mare and colt the same, and also the same to all horses entered in the speed ring, whil all the other stalls are double. _ Just south of the California stables are LARGE BUILDINGS : tet apart for the display ot-hogs and sheep. The buildings are about 24x120, and, alto- gether, have 324 pens, 8x6, or _sufli zommodation for more than 1,500 sheep and hogs. 2 ae In the angie formed by these pen buildings and California stables the Fairbanks Scale Company will erecta wind-mill for 1 mg a permanent water supply, the base to be twenty feet square, and the tower to be sixty feet high. f ‘The main exposition hall is north of the Frand stand, and a very commodious structure, af able of holdinz t and miscellaneous exhibit, and arranged with aview to perfect convenience for visitors and exhibitors. In the space between tne grand stand and the exposition hall, First, Bradley & Co, and the Schutiler Wagon Works Company will jointly erect for their own use 2 building baving a frontage of 200 feet on the track, and a depth of about 100 feet. Directly ‘across the drive toward’ the cattle sheds, the Studebaker Bros. Manufactur- ing Company, of South Bend, Ind., willerect a building, 60x26, for the exhibition of ve- nicles and AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENTS. Twenty-five feet north of the. exposition building, A. B. Barnes & Co. will. erect a duilding. 40x10s, for the display of agricult- aral implements. For the general display of agricultural implements, there is a spa north of the Barnes lucation, 40x80, and au- pther north of the Studebaker ground, 480x 36. In front of the inain entrance to the «position building there will be a Fairbanks scale, established hy the association. ‘All’ specimens of poultry for competition are to be exhibited in attractive coops or sages furnishedyby the gxhibiters, and lo- ted in sheds mveniently near the farm, dairy, and household products, and honey and bees. Fruits, flowers, and vegetables, and household manufactures and womans work will be given very. extensive space in the exposition building. “Jt is hoped and ex- pected that the hidies will send out a large display of fine needle and fancy work. 2, One of the grandest attractions at the fair will be : THE STE! E-CHASES. *run”? is two miles and a half long, and is located in the “centre field pside the regular race track. has two stone-wall = famine * three feet and nine inches high, three plank jumps of the same hight; and a water- ditch jump fifteen feet wide, twenty feet long, and eighteen inches deep. The finish is on the main track, squarely in front of and close to the grand-stand. ‘The cost of fixing the “trun” for these exciting contests was about $700, and it is pronounced to be the best steeple-chase in the country. ‘There will also be in the centre field two large areas—one on the north side and one on the south—staked off for the accommoda- tion of all classes of vehicles. | ‘This depart- ment will be under the direction of compe- tent horsemen, and will be conducted on a system of checks, which relieve visitors hav- ing carriages or wagon fa vast amount of worry and inconvenience. ‘If there is one thing that the management has devoted particular care and attention to itis with reference to affording visitors * every possible comfort that could be thought + of atafair. In the first place might be men- tioned: the superior arrangements nade for the relief of + THE HUNGRY AND THMsTY. South of the club-house there will be two dining-halls, 50x12 each, for the convenience of the general throng. The public will also have the benefit of two additional dining- alls and_lunch-counters, 22x45 each, in the centre field. ‘Then there is to be a Iunch- room, 70x12,,in each of the four angles formed by the L’s ot the exposition building, * and aline of lunch-counters and refreshment- stands in the rear of the grand stand and un- ~ derneath it. But the biggest addition in this Tine is a new two-story and basement build ine, 60x30, the first tloor of which is clegantly finished and fitted up as adining-room, while the upper floor is set apart for lodgers, more than 100 stock-exhibitors having already secured accommodations here. There will ‘also be about 100 cots put in the upper story of the grand-stand structure. If all this does not. afford sufficlent eating and sieep- Ing “accommodations for the crowd, the management will make still further addi- _ hons. More than all that, it has been specific- ally prosisad that none of the proprietors of the inneh-stands, refreshment-counters, or Sining-halls will be allowed to charge in ex- bess of ordinary 7 DOWN-TOWN PRICES. Another great feature in this line will be the establishment of huge and . innumerable tanks of free ice-water at different parts of the ground. As Superintendent Dunlap put it, A man cannot walk twenty-five feet with- ~ out running against a tank of ice-water and atineup.”” No one will be allowed to sell water on the grounds, 2nd if. they were they could not realize a nickel.” Every night, too, the drives and paths are to be thoroughly saturated with water, which will do away with the dust nuisance absolutely. For gen- eral ‘convenience, also, there has been con- structed a plank-walk in front, of the club- house and grand stand, extending | from the buildings to the race-track, and, likewise & mountain of free seats south of the club- house. ‘The grounds will be Hluminated at night with headlights. Among other attractive and ornamental features on the grounds will be Tue ‘Tui- UNE and other PRESS BUILDINGS AND TENTS, 5 this line of improvements to commence 125 teet north of the Fortieth street gate, just back of the elub-house. ‘AIL of the above includes only the most prominent features of the ir. Nothing has-been said regarding minor attractions and objects of interest and study. Ever sof amusement desiring representation will be allowed space, for there are acres of it to spare, and the host of people who will daily visit the grounds can find ample oppor- tunities tor rsion and entertainment. The race tr and stands are the finest in the world, and every day during the it there can’ be scen_a number of first-class trotting or running, races, for the prograny of the speed rings is a ¢ eoptionally fine one, the purses ranging from $500 up to 32,500.

LITTLE PILLS. Tne Chicazo Homeopathic College's New and Elegant Building. The new building of the Chicago Homeo- pathic College, at the corner of Wood and York streets, is rapidly approaching comple- tion, and is one that merits cular notice as adding greatly to the architectural beauty of the city, besides representing a most suc- cessful and popular medical institution. It was erected this season, the foundation be ing laid last May, to accommodate the stead- ily increasing elasses at the old Colleze, cor- ner of Michigan avenue and Van Buren street, and is said to be the largest, college building devoted to the teaching of homeop- athy in the country. It is situated directly opposit the. Cook County Hospital, which is conceded to be one of the best equipped hospitals in the country, and whieh furnishes in its clinics, surgical operations, and autopsies un: vantages to students. It in the same suuare as the Kush Medical College, the Woman's College, and the Cl so Traini School for Misses, and is in close proximity to the Foundlings’ Mone. The structure is four sturies high, not including a deep base- ment, and the style of architecture is gen- erally gothic, modified bya mansard roof. It is built of pressed brick, with stone trim- inings, and presents an exceedingly attractive and imposing appearance. The frontage on Wood. street, where the main entrance is located, is seventy-two feet, and runs back a distance of seventy-cight feet on York street, where there 1s 2 side entrance. Both fronts are provided with broad tht stone pavements, and the main entrance {s approached by massive stone steps. THE INTERIOR FINISH is plam,. but extremely neat, and the con- veniences which the whole possesses as a college could searcely be excelled.

On the same floor is found the microscopical laboratory, 15x80, and likewise a museum 40x40, and eight rooms to accommodate patients after being subjected to clinical operations— clinical wards. On the fourth floor, surrounding the upper part of the amphitheatre, are two large dissecting- rooms, 20x40, provided with skylight and excellent facilities for the character of the work for which the rooms are designed, and anumber of small rooms which can be used as private offices by the Professors. “The basement is to be occupied by the janitor, heating apparatus, ice-house—for the storage of cadavers—and so forth. ‘There are aiso a number of small utility rooms on the differ- ent floors not mentioned. ‘The cost of the building was, or will be, $40,000. - It will be opened Sept, 23 for the preliminary term, and Oct. 3 forthe regular winter term.

Changing Phases of the Race for the League Champion- ship. Chicago “Seven Games Ahead, Buffalo Second, and Provi+ dence Third. The Champions Successful at Cleveland Yesterday by a Score of 4 to 2. ’ Detroit Beaten by Buffalo, Worcester by Boston, and Troy by Providence. THE CIVAMPIONSHIP. The past week’s play has worked some changes in the standing of the. different clubs. Buffalo’s unexpected snecess against both Cleveland and Detroit has enabled it to remain a strong seeond and to reduce Chica- #0’s lead to seven games; while Providence has stepped squarely Into third place, and Detroit is a tie with Boston for fourth, Buf. fato’s lead of three games tor sec- ond place will in all probability prove conclusive, though that club has yet to meet Chieago three games, and shoukl lose at least two of them, and also aust encounter Troy, which has beaten the Bisons seven out of the nine games so far played. So the question of second place is not yet settled, except so far as the apparent certainty that it rests between Buifalo and Providence. There is hardly a possibility that Chicago can be beaten for first place, as, by winning eight out of their teen games yet to play, the cham- pions will reach a total of — fifty-three games won, and in order to tie this Butfalo must win fifteen out of seventeen; while, should Chicago win eleven out of leen— one at Cleveland, two at Butfalo, two at "Troy, two at Worcester, two at Boston, and two at Providence—it would be an impossi- bility for any club tomakeatie for first place. So far the Chieagos have won a majority in four of the Seven series, and can probably be beaten in but one series—that with Cleve- Jand—which. they can tie by winning next On Thursday, Friday, and Saturday of this week the champions play at Buffalo, and then proceed to Boston, Provi- nd Woreester in the order Games lost. CHICAGO V Special Dispatch to The Ch CLEVELAND, O., Sept. 3.—' was a tiresome one on account of the la interest on the part of the players. So gross did this become that towards the latter part of the game Anson was compelled to wake his men up. The chumpions won the con- test by their superior field. ‘The work of the Clevelands in the field was very shabby, but they wielded the stick with equal effect tu that of the visitors. Corcoran pitched splendidly, and Nolan did scarcely less well. “Anson won the toss, and Duntap stepped up tothe plate, He made a safe hit to right.

In the ninth inning Bradley led off witha hit, but Remsen and Dunlap were put out, though many thought the latter beat the ball to first.

Special Dispatch to The Chicaco Tribune. Bosrox, Mass., Sept. 3.—The Worcesters. after holding a lead in cight innings here today, were vanquished by the Bostons in a most surprising manner. The weather was sraw and chilly, and the game was witnessed by only about 400 people. For the Worces- ters in the first inning Dickerson led off with a safe hit over second base, and scored on a sacrifice hit by Stovey to right, and a safe hit by Richmond. In the third inning Deasley tied the seore for Boston, hitting safe for first, and getting around on a “give-away” hit by Barnes and Morrill’s single. In the seventh inning the Worcesters started in olan, 111; Corcoran, 8: Corcorai, with :the idea of making things deeidedly warm. Creafier hit safe, but was’ shut out by Jlornuny to Snyder. in attempting “to score on, Bushong’s long and safe hit. to left. latter scored on errors of Sutton’s and Rich- mond’s sacrifice. In the ninth inning the Worcesters were ina hurry at the bat_and went out in one, two, three order. Then came the pienie: ‘Crowley led off safely over second and got second on Lip Pike’s fumble The, ofthe ball, ornung: followed hit to centre, and, to thé surprise of all, again fumbled the ball. Crowley started for home and arrived *in safety, Pike plunking the ball ‘twenty fect over Bushong’s head. Hornung got to third, and then scored the winning run on Snyder's long fly to, right. ‘The Woreesters did not stop to retire the other two men, and the result was a victory for Boston by 3to2. After the game Pike was acetsed of “dropping ” the game by some of his associates, but denied the charge. He will probably not play any more with the Woreesters. Rone # THE SCORE? P & Boston.

Detroit, probably leads all the clubs finan- cially, having paid its players up to Sept. 1, and leaving a balance in the treasury of 31 000.

According to all accounts, Anson did a very silly thing at Detroit in changing the batting order of his team in last Wednesdey’s game from what it was in the list made out the night betore according to rule. He placed Burns ahead of Williamson, contrary to the list, and when the game was over Manager Baneroft gave notice that he would claim the game on xecount of the violation of the league rule on the subject. Anson de- serves severe censure if he fooled with the batting order alleged. » Lie is altogether too much given to foolish performances of the kind, and needs to be brought up with a round turn. It is stated by the managers of the Detroit Club that Bentiett was fined $50 Wednesday night tor drinking so much the night pre- vious that he could not play well on Wednes- day. ‘The Post and Tritunc says: “ Ben- nett played an exceedingly poor game aud wore an air of seeming indifference about the result that did not do him cred was lazy and inaecurate, and the other sid stole bases on hin audaclously, Kelly touch- ing the plate twice while he was dawdling about.

Inthe sixth inning he de- liberately ran off: the base line and straight neainst Caskins, whose ba turned to him. ‘There was no earthly cuse for the outrage. except that Caskins wi backing up to second base on a ball that was being thrown in by Gillespie, Burdock was running to second, had no right. to be off the base line, and certainly no exeuse to rin into the field and knock down a player.
