FRIDAY'S FUN. A Crowd foSee It at the Driving Park, Will Benham and Anglin the Winners. Sailor Boy to Pace Against 2:18 To-Day. Other Rare Sport on To-Day's Pro- gramme. The fair yesterday proved a continued sucoess, The opening of the day proved threatening by clouds and dampness, but the skies brightened up, and the crowd began gathering eatly in the afternoon, and before the races were started there were soveral thousand present. Those who have been across the river looking at the state fair in Omaha pro nounce the display there in many respocts better than here, but Council Bluffs way ahead in the number and speed of track horses. The fruit show here is acknowl- edged to be far ahead of either Des Moines or Omaha, The other depart- ments have fair displays but not so mark- edly superior to other fairs as the fruit show is, The exposition building has been daily thronged throughout the week, the dis- plays there being very attractive. Muel- ler, the music dealer had a large and fine display of instruments m:uu‘;ying the center of the exposition building, Mot- calf Bros. sharing the rotunda booth with him, and making a very creditable and attractive showing of hats, caps, gloves, furs, ete. Casady & Orcutt uccu{)ied a prominent place, and made such a display of carpets and curtaing as was to be ex- pected from a house standing at the front in their line, Harkness Bros.' display was also good though not 80 oxtensiv C. A. Beebe & Co. had some fine furni- ture, and other merchants displayed various goods, making quite a varied and pleasing showing merchandise. "Thore was & showing up of stock yester- day forenoon which attracted much atten- tion as they were led around and eyed by judges, George F. Wright's maro captured a ribbon and M. F. Rohrer’s gelding was decorated by threc, one as the best for general purposes, one as the best gelding under the saddle, and one as the fast walker. Col. Sapp got a large number of first premiums on ’i\il t:zi Mr. Treynor also won honors on some of his stock, A %md joke is told on the committee who had the awarding of premiums on cheese, One exhibitor showed up some Schweitzer cheese, pronounced by ex- perts in that class as very fine, but the committee, not being familiar with that kind and taking it as ordinary cheese, were horrified at the peculiar smell and taste and pronounced the cheese too hor- rible to to consider at all and the Schweitzer went without a friend or ribbon, There is no knowing how badly the committee would have been broken u]}y if any Linberger had been exhibited. The mistake was discovered and rectified after a time and the Schweitzer exhibi tor had his wrath cooled down by a satis- factory ux&)lnnnhuu. Some tall stalks of corn were shown up as grown by Mr, McCord, of Davenport. They were 17} feet tall, and the corn is of the Kentucky variety. THE RACES. There was a good sized crowd out again in the afternoon to see the races, filling one amphitheater and a goodly number of seats in the other. The Harmony band again furnished music, The programme furnished for the af- termoun'’s sport was a good one, but a 1l * botter one is offered to-day, and many who could not_attend bovh days' races, forowent the pleasure, preferring to attend to-day. THE 2:34 RACE opened very tamely. There were two starters, Anglin and Columbus. The latter took the pole and led from begin- ning to finish. Both horses broke badly, Anglin on the first quarter being brought nearly to a stand still before gotting on his feet. This zave Columbus a big lead, but Anglin gathered himself up so as to cut down the gap, till at the finish there was only a streak of daylight botween them. Time, 2:31, The second heat was very tamo, At the l‘i\mmr‘ Anglin took the lead and rullu steadily away, being sevoral engths ahead and keeping there, Colum- bus being off his feet a good deal, An- glin i'u),'gull in the winner of the heat, The third heat was very tame. An- glin kept the lead, followed cloar around by Columbus, the horses steady to the finish, when Columbus coming up a little ham led to the quatter and from there to the home stretch the horses went nose and nose most of the way, but Benham passed under the wire about a neck ahead, winning the heat and race in 2:24], the best time of gho day.

T00 GOOD TO LET GO, The attendance has been se large, the display 8o fine and the track horses so numerous and speedy that it has been decided to continue the meeting to-day, and the best of all has been saved to the last of the feast. The programme for to-day is a sensational one indeed. There will be the followitg events: Trot in the 2:30 class, purse 400, three to start; entries closed at 8 o'clock last evenisg, Sailor Boy will pace against time to beat 2:18 for a purse of £600. Sailor Boy won the big free-for-all pacing race on Tuesday, making 2:22}, which was the fastest milo ever paced over the Council Bluffs track. Billy Scott will accompany Sailor Boy. Running race, half mile and repeat, in which entries closed last evening at 8 o'clock, which will be a stake race. A chariot race and an Indian warriors’ race for a bride.

In the half mile and repeat, Lucy Johnson, Black Bill, Bee's Wing and Kate B. The above programme is a fine one, and a large crowd will doubtless be present. THE DOSY GIRL, By spocial request, and owing to_the impossibility of the arrival of Bill Nye, the presentation of the 75 sewing ma- chine to the “Boss Girl” has been_post- until 2 o'clock to-day, when it will positively be awarded the best girl.

Ollison and wife. This is the last of seven who have been sent and remained but a short time to cheer the hearts of the now sorrowing parents. Several floral tributes were left at the residence on Madison street. Among the most beautiful were those sent by Mrs, N. P. Dodge and Mrs, Marshall Key. The sympathy of many friends is extended in this hour of dark bereavement. Alittle fellow, claiming to hail from St. Louis, turned up here yesterday, telling rather a hard story of how he hid boen used by a step-father in that city. The boy had been selling newspapers, and the old man, who abused him badly enough before, grew still worse in his treatment after his mother’s death. The boy could stand the old man's getting drunk, but when it came to taking his newspaper money for drink, and then on getting sober whaling the boy for havin lost it, he could stand it no longer, an run away. He says tho conductors lot him ride through to here, and he was trying to ot from here to Chariton, #hero he has un aunt living, Yesterduy forencon Chief Field ar- rested Pat Hanlon, a burly farmer, made still more burly by bad whisky. ~After being put in the back room of the police station, Hanlon tried to knock the door off its hingos, and the Chief went in to change him into the dark cell. Hanlon pitched into him fiorcely, but the Chief downed him, and held him till he begged for mercy, and then lot him up. No sooner was Hanlon on his feet than he struck the Chief a heavy blow, raising a welt onhin forehend ppd breaking off the skin a little, The Chief then struck him witha billy, knocking himout of time, cut- ting his head, and making him wilt, Hanlon was then placed in the dark cell and given a better chance to sober up.
