It is expected that the board will complete its labors this week. Yesterday was not very prolific of news. Many of the usual sources of information were dried up.

Republicans expect not only to conduct a lively campaign, but a success- ful one. The board of supervisors yesterday lot the building of the Main strect bridge to Raymond & Campbell.

Every justice oftice in the city was de- serted yesterday afternoon, and the stair- ways of two of them were occupied by men not sober enough to go heme, and not quite drunk enough to go to the cooler. Gov. Sherman and _Gen. Prentiss will speak in Council Bluffs Saturday evening under the auspices of the Young Men's Republican club, All are invited to at- tend, and those who do will surely enjoy a rich treat. A number of the young men of Neola, Jowa, have organized an orchestra and have christened it the ‘‘Le Brilliante.” They will give their opening party Satur- day evening, September 10, in the city }n{l in N :151.

The attendance was not as large as usual or as was expected, but the secretary in- forms us that he has received communi- cations from many of tho members who expected to be present, stating that the unusual amount of sickness had rendered it impossible for them to get away. Valuable papers wero presented by Drs, Pittman, of Villisca, Carllich, of Harlan, Cowperthwait, of Iowa City, and Hart and Campbell, of Omaha, and Still- man, Poulson, Montgomery and Hanch- | T| ett, of this C“K' and a number were not presented,as the societyadjourned to give the members an opportunity to attend the exposition.

Tam, of Avoca, left last evening for home, after having taken in the democratic convention and the fair, in each of which he is a stockholder. The colonel is an old democratic war- horse and sniffs the battle from afar as keenly as ever. He seems pretty well satisfied with the result of the conven- tion, especially so far as hus part of it was concerned, as e took upon himself the special mission of getting Cramer nom- inated for the assembly S Cooper for treasurer, and he got there, The colonel didn't bother himself so wuch about the way the rest of the ticket was framed, and having got what he came for, he took in the rest of the fun with a gay heart, and enjoyed the fair like one who lud got fr laurels. The old democratic hand has evidently not for- its cunning in setting up the pins, m is an“mu prcdictiunr wheln he m(}mrmfl Cooper will get there 600 to 800 majority, and that Holmes will probably squeeze through by & reasonable majority, notwithstanding the home opposition of J. C. Morgan. The democratic sage is still wilder in de- elanng that no republican, however wflu h‘l‘l‘.w the front from this ‘wounty Dr. West, dentiat, T4 Poarl strect. A GRAND SUCRESS. The Crowd Increasing at the Fair and Races. The Best Sport Of All Promised To=Day. Yesterday's Doings Not Spoiled by Showers —-Rare Races To-Dey, The heavy rain of the previous mght was rather a dampener upon the pros- peots of the fair yesterday, but as the clouds broke and the sun came out in the morning, everybody felt glad again, and by noon there had quite a large crowd gathered on the grounds, but about that hour the clouds began gathering again, and many who had proposed to go down to the grounds, remembering the moist time had on the last Fourth, waited to see how it was coming out before ven- turing into the hacks and street cars. During the early showers of the after- noon the crowd on the grounds kept close to places of shelter, and were not very ventureseme, The weather bright- ened up, however, and gave a chance for the races, the wind and sun deing much to dry the track some, though it was still a little heavy at the beginning, but dried 50 rapidly that at the finish dust appeared in spots, Despito the risky showers the attendance was larger than on the day previeus, and everybody was delighted, and_the promise is of n still larger at- tendance to-day, as it is to be the best day of all on tho track, as will be seen by the programme, which includes the 2123 and 2:34 classes, besides the novelty races, Some of the too economical souls who tried to sneak into the grounds yester- day by geing through cornfields and pas- tures and crawling under the fencoes, were nipped yesterdny by the ofticers on watch, and made to pay over their half dellars, so that besides having their trou- blo for nothing, they were subjected to the mortification of being the observed of all observers, One fellow was escortod through the crowd clear to the gate, and there compelled to buy a ticket, making him run quite a_gauntlet. G.W. }vh:l"mldun, of Atlanta, 111., had the manopoly on sheep, he being theonly exhibitor, and his show being a fine one indeed. Another boy had his curiosity in the machinery department satisfied yester- day. It was Oscar Sprink, a son of John Sprink. He got his thumb into some of the machinery, the flosh. being quickly stripped off, and the thumb badly mash od. The little fellow was put into a car- l“W{“ and taken to town for treatment. “The agricultural reporter of The Non- {mriol is now liable to be relieved, since his writing up the fair ho gave a glowing account of an eight-year-old calf. A. N. Carpenter, of Galesburg, the landscape gardener, is making an inter- eating exhibit, both here and av the Omaha fair, The city authorities have been in correspondence with him in ro. gard to the improvement of Fairmount park, for which nature has done so much, and which merits the expenditure of somoe money in improving and beautify- ing still further. Mr. Carpenter has been looking over the park since his ar- rival, and thinks thatit will take little money, cnmsnr-tivuly, to make it very beautiful and convenient, COOPER AND M'GEE, the well-known hardware men, mako a very creditable display in the oxposition building, esp ly of stoves, some of which are beauties indeed, as well as be- ing as well up in utility as in ornament. They have the Garland stoves and ranges. They also exhibit the Hub Royal, square heaters, which take the lead in their class, The Hub heaters, round sheet- iron stoves, are also excellent. Cooper & McGoo also mako a fine display of car- penters’ tools, and builders’ “bronzed hardware, The firm make a showing which not only attracts attention, but proves that they keep up with the latest and best in their line, FRIEDMAN'S DIKPLAY, The space oocupied by H, Friedman, whoso establishment, No, 321 Broadway, iswell known, is one of tho most attract- ively arranged of anylin tho exposition building, o goods In richnoss, variety and numbers, are very creditabl are di-Ylnyed very tastily. Tho milline- ry display is very fine and excites much ,;‘rlins from the ladies who crowdabout it. here is a large showing of plumes and flowers, There is not only the latest styles of bonnets and hats, but of cloaks, some of which are very beautiful, and childrens’ and ladies hoods in great va- riety. Fancy goods, yarns, zephyrs, ete., complote which is one of the best dis. plays in the hall, BARKE'S FHOTOGRAPHS as displayed in the Exposition build- ing, attract and merit much attention. 'hey are excellent, and yet are but sam- ples of the work done daily at the Exoel- sior gallery, 100 Main streot. Mr, Barke displays some very handsome plasques, introduced as suitable for lmliJny gifts, Barke has gained the reputation of koeping always to the front in his line, and the beauty and finish of his pictures, bespeak the true artist. The display made at the fair in numbers, variety and quality of work, would do credit fo any artist in any exposition io the land, Mr, Barke proposes to exhibit also at the Avoca district fair, THE RACES, There was, despite the showerrs, a gooply crowd in the amphitheater to wit- ness thoe races.besides many i carringes, and the thick line along tho fences. The Marmony band again furnished music for the races yesterday. The boys play pretty well, though their repertoire | 5 18 not very exte, A. (i, Hancocl Kansas City, added to his laurels yesterday by the prompt- ness and firmuess th ufm-h he started and judged the races. Hois the best man in that place which the association here has had yot. The first event called was the 2:60 class. Of the six entrics two failed to start —Modjeska and Glenwood, The starters wero placed as follows: Lucy B., Lorene, Bn{ Tack and Toronto Maid, The first heat was rather tame, Lucy B. k;pt the lead from the start to the fin ish, Toronto Maid pushing up within a length and coming in m-\'nn&. Lorene third, and Bay M, who acted badly in scoring and was off his feet most of the distauce round, bringing up the rear. Time, 2:38}.0 Th ud heat was a good deal of a *'ditto, " save that Toronto Maid kept a little closer on to Lucy B and held her down pretty well clear to the finish, Lorene coming in third, Bay Mac couldn't or wouldn't keep his foet and dropped far behind, then ran in, saving THE DAI his distance, but when on his feet once showed himself capable of pretty good speed and a square tret, The time was 2:353, a little faster than the previous heat, The third head was a little more inter- esting, Lucy B and Toronto Maid keep- ing pretty well abreast to the half mile, Lucy B leading slightly. The Maid on the third quarter broke but got down azain, while Lorene crawling up the three bunched pretty olosely, Bay Mac behaved pretty well until on the home- strotch when he went off his feet again, but came down quickly, Lucy B puased under the wire an onsy winner, while Lorene, by a fine spurt, crowded her nose ahead of '{nmntn Maid and came in se ond, the Maid being third and Bay M fourth.

K B led by two lengths through the mile, Ella Rowett closing the gap on the finish, bt leaving Katie 1 an easy winner, timé 1:73. A HALF MILE DASH finished the afternoon’s sport.
