In the morning the try~ ing out of the teams of oxen with the test pulls and exhibitions of strength kept the farmers interested and many others were t thereta. The Af- rican do 0 faced tomatoes in- stead of basebalis had an amused crowd about him most of the time, while the seller of eanaries interested by his speech and sales. The shoot- ing gallery was the mecca for the crack shots, while the other attrac- tions through the grounds got their share of the business. There was a crush in the exhibition building, & number of more exhibits having been placed since the opening day.

The water had to be hauled from the hydrant near F. T. Maples' house and it was not until 5 o'elock that the n to fill and it was 7 before W water enough.

It was announced, however, that at and 4.30 this afterncon Holden will make his dives in addition to the bicycle ride, and if the committee sees fit he will dive early in the day, prob- ably about 12.30.
