ROCKVILLE AR FIVANCIAL SUCEESS Closing Day Finds Attend- ance Large and Many “Star Attractions. Special Dispatch to The Star. ROCKVILLE, Md, August 22.— ‘While the attendance at the fair to- day was in striking oontrast to the record-breaking throng of yesterday, ‘when 20,000 people were on the grounds, it was gratifyingly large for the fourth day and helped very ma- terially to swell the aggregate re- ceipts, which, it is believed, will show a handsome balance after all ex- penses of the fair are paid. The big success, it is thought, has put the as- sociation on its feet. Today’s program included the finest horse show ever held in the county, a clay-pigeon shoot, participated in by many of the leading shots of the East; a dog show, in which numerous aristocratio canines competed for the liberal prizes and ribbons, and two barness races and a running race. The annual fair dance of the young people of Rockville and vicinity was held in the town hall last evening. Among the people of prominence in vesterday's big_crowd was David C. Winebrenner, Democratic candidate for Congress in this district, and Rep- resentative Zihlman, the Republican congressional candidate. The free-for-all trot or pace, in which - five high-class performers faced the starter, was the feature of the racing card yesterday. Summary: 24 trot; purse, $300.

Hart Named President of National Shorthand Writers’ Association. George L. Hart of this city was today elected president of the Na- tional Shorthand Reporters’ Assocla- tion at the concluding session of that organization, at Wardman Park Hotel. Edward 1. Berry of Camden, N. J., was re-elected vice president. W. A. J. Warnement of Cleveland, Ohio, was re-elected treasurer, while Albert C. Gaw of Elkhart, Ind., was re-elected secretary. Percy H. Howe of Boston, Mass., and Herman I. Pugh of Huntington, W. Va., were re- elected members of the board of directors. The retiring president, Frederick H. Gurtler of Chicago, Ill, and Mrs. Estelle Martin of Pitts- burgh, Pa., were elected as additional members of the board, There was much competition be- tween the delegates during the cam- paign. The local members were all strong for Mr. Hart for president, and fought hard, insuring his election. A resolution was adopted express- ing disapproval of the alleged in- adequate salgries received by short- hand reporters in the Government seryice. It was pointed out that shorthand réporters under the pres- ent ‘classification are rated as head stenographers or chlef stenographers, and that the salaries recelved by ] are inadequate for the work they do. ‘The president of the assoclation was authorized to appoint a committee to confer with the personnel classifica- tion board with a view to obtaining reclassification for shorthand re- porters “at & salary commensurate with the character of such service.” Virginia Cider Mills Busy.
