I'hirty Thousand People Ex- pected on the BEig Daye. Interesting Entrios and It ras Con- cerning the Show. The state fair opens to-day,;:nd, should the weather prove favorable, promises to be a complete success. The new buildings, with the single exception of the main dining hall, are complete, and the grounds in avlendid condition, The secretary and treasurer’s build- ing has been removed to the right of the main entrance, making it much | more convenient of access.

'lpho cottage owned by Dowey & Stone and Orchard & Bean is filled with fine furniture and carpets, theso two live firms being among the first to complete their exhibits, and both hay- ing agrand display. There is very little in the halls thus far, Fine Arts hall being best supplied. Twelve counties will make ¢comploto agricultural exhibics this fall, and this portion of the show will be unusually tine and complete. ‘The dining booth just east of the B, & M. building is fimshed and there will be plenty of supplics in the eating line. The main dining hall will be comploted by noon to-day. The two pavilions built by the Lin- inger, Motcalf agricultural company, and the Omaha implement con.pany are filled, and the display of machin- ery will bo far ahoad of that of last yoar. Several carloads camein yes- terday from the state fair at Dos Moines, The sprinklers were sot to work yes- terday and kept the dust down in fine shape, This will bo a great feature this year, the hydrants along Sherman avenue and these inside jthe grounds enabling the Omaha Sprinkling com- pany tokeop the grounds and ap- proaches wet down at a comparatively small outlay, To-morrow will really be the open- ing day of the fair and the various haile will bo put in order to day by the difforent superiutendents, The secrotary’s office will be moved from the Paxton to the fair grounds at 6:30 this morning, and all the offi- cers are in the ci'y and will be on hand, A Bee reporter called at the secre- tary's offico yesterdsy and found a large exhibit Turnished by the school children in respoose to Prof. Lane's offer of specisl premiums, Among the various entrics were over 500 specimens of ponmanship, 1,000 maps and 500 spocimens of drawing, Every one of these will be entered separately and a tag put_on with the name of the child furnishing the ar- ticle. The various specimens will be hung on the walls of Floral hall, Gov. Furuas sends up a fine frame constructed of thirty different Ne- braska woods, high{y polished, en- closing a flat board of mosaic work, in which 400 or 500 samples of Ne- braska woods are united, all highly polished. One of the most beautiful articles entered is an ‘‘air castle,” by Miss | Lena Oster, of Valley Station. It is | of frayed linen with bows of cardinal ribbon and the design is exquisite. It will demand general admiration. The young lady is sixteen years of age. Gov, Furnas also sends up a display of silk cocoons.i Chas. Dietrichs, the portrait painter fi Columml;l::fl sends a large a x of oil tings. At the closing of the secratary's books Saturdsy night the entries num- bered nearly three thousand, which is largely in excess of any provious num- ber for a corresponding time, Ar- rangements for exhibits at the grounds havae been made on a much larger scale than ever before, and many of the difficulties, which have been en- coantercd at other fairs, will this year be obviated. Satarday noon there were & lundrod fine horses on the Zro! , aud droves of cattle, hogs and sheep were arrwving all day, Just at nighta train of seven cara of fine stock arrived from Des Moines, where they | were on exhibition at the Iowa state fair, and more is on the way.

Anda Wholo Squsd Files in For Various Offonses. About 9 o'clock last evening a couple of men named Frank Smith "and Frank McLean, had some trouble |on Twelfth stroct, just below Douglas, which resulted in the latter being stabbed by the former, with a | penknife. McLean is an employe of | the hardware firm of Dolan & Lang- | worth, and Smith is a railroader from Sioux City. The former was fecut in the left breast, just |above the region of the heart. | The knife was only prevented from doing fatal work by coming in contact | with one of the ribs., McLean was | taken to Dr. J. C. Panter'sdrug store, |in the Millard block, where Drs. Panter and H. W. Hyde dressed the | wound. The appearance at first in- dicated that he had been cut through | the lung but examination proved it to be only a flash wound. Officer Burk arrested Smith and lodged him in the city jai!, and McLean was taken to a house on Twefth street for the night. BAD ON THE CITY, Mr. C. Morris, an employe of the white lead works, fell off the em- bankment on Seventeenth and Far- nam last evening, and was qaite badly hurt. He was taken to the city jail, and Officer Bark called in Dr. Gross- ma., who gave him the required medical attention. Morris was insen- sible when picknd up, but had no bones broken. He is a large and portly man, weighing abou two hun. dred pounds. His wife was sum- moned, and took bim home late in the evening. He was intoxicated when he fell, but that will not release the suthoritics from reeponsibility, and a suit for damsy s is hkely to fol- ow. The county will probably be the defendant.
