\ » -o» w gy ' ARRIVING BY THOUSANDS. The Attendance at the Btate Fair Wholly Without Precedent. NEBRASKA'S BIG FISH FARM. Yorty Thousand People Admire the Exhibit at the Fair—=Premiums Awarded on Stock—Hand- some Horses—Notes, [FROM THE BEE'S LINCOLN BUREAU.] “The estimate of people in attendance at the state fair yesterday ranged from enthusiasts to conservatives from seven- ty-five to sixty thousand people. Certain it is there were no less than soventy-five. The state fair never has enjoyed a crowd of over one-half the size of yesterday's on any one day bofore 1n the history of its organization and it may never see the like again, The day was cool and in every way all that could be asked. Many that coustituted the crowd arrived in the city the evening before, but such crowds ns arrived on the trains from every direc- tion duriug the early part of the day ‘were never witnessed in the state before, Every train was loaded to the guards; box ears, flat cars, cattle cars, all were brought into requsition, and then all who sought to reach Lincoln yesterday could not be accommodated. The state fair mavagers could undoubtedly pay all expenses and premiums of the entire fair out of the reccipts of yesterday. The ‘weather, the time of the week and minor matters contributed much toward gath- ering the crowd and the little horse at the speed stables, Jay-Eye See, did the balance. The state fair managers have had attractions before but never anything approximating toward Jay-Eye-See. The little horse was notannounced to appear untit 2:30 p. m., but before noon the am- phitheater was crowded to its utmost and efore the hour for the races, many could not purchase scats. ‘Throughout the day the halls and buildings on the gnlmnds were packed to suffocation and olice officers were stationed in all to nass of humanity in motion. From the city to the grounds the streets were crowded with vehicles of every de- scription and the test to transport the public never avproached the like of ye terday before. So far as could be asce tained, the duy was fairly free from a cidents and ethieving and trouble, if in Progress, wWere not reportec TATE FISH COMMISSION E BIT. Three years ago this exhibit was as- signed a 8mall space in Art hall. Last year, through the efforts of Mr. May, the tate fair board were induced to prepare a building for the commission and this {enr they have added to and arranged so hat it is quite convenient for the exhibit, the whole thing being uunder the super- vision of Mr, W. L. May, who is presi- dent of the American Fisheries society and who has be instrumental in plac- ing the hatcheries and fisheries in its prosent popular and successful condi- tion. The oflicers of the American fish- eries are W. L. M Fremont, Neb., president; H. H. Georgia, vico president; Fred Mather, Cold Sprin, Tarbor, N. Y., recording Secretary: Will- 1am A. Butler, jr., Detroit, Mich., corre sponding secretary; K. G. Blackford, New York city, treasurer,' KExccutive committen: Calvert Spenseley, Mineral Point, Wis.; J. H. Bissell, Detroit, Mich.; R. O. Sweeney, St. Paul, Minn.; linm M. Hudson, Hartford, N. Y.: M. McDon« ald, Washington, D. C.; Livingston Stone, Charlestown, N. H.; Frank N. Clark, Northville, Mich, The state commission is composed of W. L. May, R. R. Livingstone and Dr. B. B. Kenneday, with Mr. k. O'Brien super- intendent of hatcheries. The exhibit building on the grounds cost about $2,000 and is the only one in_the United States upon state fair grounds, which shows that the Nebraska board is not only the most enterprising, but thatit always antici- pates the wants of the people, to please and instruct, as manifested by the great crowds’ which continually throng the walk for visitors. A careful count demonstrated that over thirty thousand people visited this exhibit yesterday and were only sorry that they could not stay Jonger for a closor examination of the fish and their interests. The hatcheries of this state are located near South Bend, 1n this state, and com- prise tifty-two acres, only a portion of which are taken up with the hatcheries proper. The preparing and saving for the fish is very minute and full of detail of which only an outline can - be given. The spawn or eggs are tripped from the breeding fish in the fall of the year and hatehed” during the winter season and shivped to ponds or streams which are entirely void of fish, or of fish of the nature which are bred at the hatcheries, The shipping months are March, April and May for brook trout, wall-cyed pike and mountain trout, and October, No- vember and December for black bass and German carp. In order to sccure these minnows, application should be made to one of the commissioners or the superintendent at South Bend, giving full description of the water, how the pond or stream is fed, and, if practicable, n due time the fish will be equally divided and sent by express, the party receiving them paying the express only, no charge being made for the tish. Dur- ing the past season 16,000,000 of fish have been shipped to different points in this state and still the applications are in & ““—d_excess of the ability of tho hatcheries to supply. These fish do not need feeding upon being placed into new waters, as ordinariily, unless already overstocked, the ponds or streams contain enough natural food for their supply. ‘These hatcheries are sustained by state appropriations alone, there being no other income to the fisheries. The legis- Iature last winter appropriated $12,500 for the sustenance of this institution for the coming two years. No salaries are attached to any of these officials except »ndent, who receives a small compensation. This work was begun 8ix years ago as an experimental station, and through the efforts of Mr. May it has become one of the most important in- dustries of the state, baving supplied nearly every stream in the state with large numbers of fish, besides innumer- able numbers of individual ponds. The commission has tried various kinds of fish and is still experimenting with oth- ers to secure the best, but so far has sot- tled down on the kinds herctofore men- tioned as being the best adapted to the waters and food of this state. Every state in the union and seyeral territories have hatcheries, which they are increas. ing and adding to each year, finding them profitable and remunerative. Wis: consin, Ohio, Michigan and other states appropriate as high us 20,000 per annum to support their hatcheries, and yet all three of these states do not cover as much territory as Nebraska, though the commission is doing nearly a8 much for the cause us are these gentlemen, who are liberally supported.

Animals may be in harness or to halter, a8 may be preferred. Failure to ap- ear in this procession will be cause for for- rull of premiums. HANDSOME HORSE PLESIS. The finest display of horses ever ex- hibited in the state can be seen at the fair grounds. ‘The number of horses ex- ceeds by 60 per cent any display ever made before in the state. Standingin the front of the magnificent display of horse flesh is the exhibition made by W. L. Elwood, of DeKalb, 111, who has forty head of imported French Percherons that came direct to the fair from the Towa state fair, where they swept the ring of first premiums. Mr. Klwood in bringing these horses to Nebraska has shown the interest that breeders of im- ported stock are taking in Nebraska, and when Mr. Elwcod saw the 60,000 people that yesterday passed before the stalls containing his horses he knew that his trip was more than he expected in the line of exhibitions. Mr. Eiwood’s chuuie stock needs to be seen to be appreciated Every animal is a beauty, clean of limb, perfect in build and altogether the finest exhibit ever wade in the state. That they are all this was exemplified when they were shown for premiums, the horses winning first premium from sweep- stakes down. With one exception, when the horses were returned to their stalis they bore off the field twelve blue ribbons as trophies of the contest. Standing at the head of Mr. Elwood's herd is the magniticent stallion, King of Perche, that everywhere is decorated with first pre | mium ribbons, Superior, another mag- nificent animal, 1s little if any behind in the points of worth, and every animal in the lot has ospecial features of merit. Four handsoma French coach horses were greatly admired from among Mr. Elwood’s stock, and thess were no ex- ceptions from the rule in the taking of premiums. Visitors to the fair find on entering the grounds Mr. Elwood’s stock ranged along the first fifty box stalls in the horse department. If any think that fine stock is not appreciated in Nebraska they should stand and watch the crowds that gather before the stalls, and they would' know that it pays enterprising men like Mr. Elwood to display their stock to Nebraska people, Mr. Elwood, in speaking of the Nebraska state fair, said that it exceeded 1n every way his ex- l;m-uuiuns, and he has no regrets for ringing his magnificent exhibit to the state. Mr. Elwood is one of the leaders 1n the west in the Percheron importing business and nas a line of stock that cannot be excelled. He keeps only the choicest of animals imported and from direct imported horses, on his stock farm_ at DeKalb, for sale and any desiring to Improve stock or purchase something that they know is all that is usserted of it should write for circulars to Mt. Elwood. Judging from the exhi- bit at the fair there if no finer stock this side of the Atlantic. A FINE DISPLAY OF IMPLEMENTS. The J. M, Burks lmplement company have one of the finest exhibitions on the fzrmlnd, This enterprising Lincoln firm has grown yearly 1n popular favor until their trade at the present time permeates ery section of the state. This firm at the fair a display that cannot fail to attract the attention of dealers over the state. This tirm show the Ab- bott buggies that wherever, known are greatly appreciated for their workman- ship. ~ They confidently state that the Abbott bugizies show the best work for the least money of any line of buggies in the market. 'l'fm firm have on exhibition at the grounds twenty specimen vehicles of the Abbott make in phaetovs, car- riages, surrey’s and buggies, in eanopy and extension tops. ‘They are worthy close inspection. They display in wagons, the celebrated Olds wagon in twelve ditferent makes, from two and one-fourth to three and one-half inch axles. In plows they exhibit a full hine of handsome specimens from the Walton Plow company’s work: These cele- brated works turn out as fine specimens in plows, harrows, cultivators, etc., as can be scen on the grounds. In rakes the firm have handsome specimens from the Sohn Ridge Implement company’s works, and they have on exhibition a Iargo line of buggies and carriages, aside from the Abbott make, with which they an satisfy tho most fastidious in ctions. - One of the attractive features 1 the J. M, Burks Implement company's exhibit is the Foster seeder. ‘L'his is an attachment to any farm wagon, that, as a broadcast sceder, eclipses anything ever exhibited in that line and which ome- thing of a novelty and elosely inspected by all intelligent farmers. = This firm, m addition to their wholesale and retail implement business, carry an extensive trade in_stores for the wholesale trade and their heavy Lincoln retail trade, Among their” great exhibit of stoves may be found _ fifty from the manufactory of Cribben, Sexton & Co., Chicago. Standing at'the head of this company’s @ the unrivalled Universal One of their stoves is builde burners. entirely of nickle, silver plated, marvel of beauty. The Unives supplied with the patent s; tachment and the appliance for taking foul air from floors through the the stoves into the chimneys. Mr. W. S. Barnett of Chicago, is the manu uring firm’ agent in display of goods, and in addi- tion to base burners he shows a large number of styles in hard and soft coal heaters and” cook stoves especially adapted to the fuel in use in the west. All of these makes of stoves the J. M. Burks Implement company keep con- stantly on hand in all styles and makes. Local dealers in Nebrasks are cordially inyited, while visiting the state fair, to call at this firm's headquarters and ox- amine their handsome exhibits, A more successful firm cannot be found or any who are more awake to making hand- some exhibits at every state fair where they show their goods™ on their merits and make always a credit lisplay. CHICAGO AND ERIE STOVE COMPANY Mr. G. ates, of Chicago, one of the men who mever | sleep business and who in rushmi; for has a double-hand welcome for all, is in charge ot that part of the J. M. Burk Im- plement company’s display covered by the Chicago and Erie Stove comp Mr. Gates is supervising sixty diffe styles of stoves, base burners, heaters, cook stoves and ranges thatare exhibited by his company, and has standing at the head of the row the well-known *‘Art Invincible” base burner; which is ac- knowledged to be without a superior in the land. The ‘“Art Invincible’ is in beauty all its name implies, and is great- ly admired. When Mr. Gates discourses to an admiring public the worth of his wares he becomes so eloquent that crowds fairly applaud. At the head of this company's exhibits 1n cooking stoves is the Chicago and Erie Manufacturing company’s celebrated ‘“Helper,” which is the admiration of all housewives, and there were no less than 25,000 of them on the ground yesterday.

There was hardly standing room, Lunch stands and dining halls could not accommodate the hungry yesterday, and hundreds ate nothing during the ay. James Walsn, of Omaha, called at the BEE tent to announce that he had capt- ured first premium on early and late po- tat: the same that took premiums at the Omaha fair. Sheriff Hamilton, of York, chief of po- lice on the grounds. lost a yaluable horse that he has been using at the fair. The horse took fright and, blinded with fear, ran headlong agninst a passenger coach breaking his neck. The fakirs and side show men drove a rattling trade yesterday. It was a time when peoble would pay for standing room beside the snake charmer and alligator just to f“ away from the seething crowds of sight seekers, There were people 1n attendance from every corner of the state yesterday. Every town sent delegations of hun- dreds. Speaker Harlan and Clerk Slaughter were present and lhe{ could have assembled the entire state legisla- ture on the ground. The Columbus Buggy company is one of the wide awake exhibitors and the eompany's wide awake representative had nearly closed out 60,000 advertising oards at an early hour yesterday. A runaway horse and buggy dashed into the carriage of A. E. Hargieave's, in which he was driving his family to the grounds, The carriage was made into kindling wood, but happily all escaped injury.

B. & M. officials were on the ground yes- terdny witnessing the races, and “the multitude brought to the fair on their ex- cursion trains. Some of the principal dining halls closed their doors before 1 o'clock and turned away hundreds of hungry people. The feeding capacity of the halls on the grounds were never subjected to such a test before. There are twenty newspaper tents on the ground, representing all the promi- nent state dailies and the agricultural vapers of the west.

Bayner, well known Texas pioneer, Indian figh! and ranger, who represents at prese the county of El Paso in the Te state legislature, is taking a great deal of in- terest in the mining development of western Texas, and during the last ses- sion of the legislature tried hard to get a mining law enacted which would hold out adequate inducements to the thorc prospecting and developing of that sec tion of ihe state. Colonel 1 ner is about startng on a regular prospecting . and exploring trip in company with a trusted companion, heading first for the K Springs range, which lies betw Rio Grande and the Southern where alreaty extensive ns have be oal n found and partially de- veloped, but where he thinks intelligent and persistent prospecting will also find paying ore bodies. The range is n regu- Inr terra incognita, and _but seldom visi- ted, owing to th city of water and the many massacres by Indians, but is familiar to Colonel ner, who visited the spot as early as 1851 in charge of a large catuie train, and was attacked there by about 800 Indians. Dur- ing the ensumg fight two of s nineteen herders were killed. From the kagle Spring mountians the prospecting party will go south down the river, through the Chisas and Ch nati mountains, both of ! known to be full of mineral over tw hundred years ago. At that early period the Spanish Francisean fathers had a number of missions in this district, each surrounded by a pueblo of peaceful and converted Indians. Each mission was the pivetal point of extensive mming op- erations, to which the Indians had to con- tribute their often unwillingllabor. Some- where about 1720 the Comanche Nation, then fierce and powerful, made a general onslaught on all western Texas, de- stroyed the missions and killed tho fath- ersand most of the friendly Indians. Since then the country has remained uninhabited wilderness, and the exis- tence of the old mines can only be ascer- tained by the exvlorer occasionally com- ing across deserted and covered shafts or dvmps, and other evidences of old- time developments. They are found not only in Presilo cointy, but as far enst a8 San Saba and_Llano counties. One particular spot Colonel Bayner is aiming for is Presidio count; There is a canyon with nearly perpindicular Eluff several hundred feef high on one side; the naked face of the rock shows a wide, well defined and conspicuous vein of mineral running along the entiro face of the bluff. If an assay should prove it to be good pay ore, thera would be a mine there ready to hand for development on a large scale. That such a conspicuous ore vein should remain until now un- claimed and undeveloped proves the se- clusion and utter loneliness of thatim- mense district of count 1t is thought however, that withthe immense strides which EI Paso is taking forward at pr ent in population, commerce and im- portance, settlers will soon flock in large numbers to the three'named countics, most of the lands of which belong to the school fund of the state and cap be bought at low figures. et L Bishop Worthington came in on the “Q.* train yesterday from the east.
