BEE: THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1859 FORTY THOUSAND PRESENT. Hverybody and His Oousins and His Aunte at the Fair, BLESSED WITH GOOD WEATHER. Art Hall Very Attractive—The Expo- sition An Assured Finano Success—Dsath of An Etixer Victim, 1020 P Srrerr, Livcouy, Sept. 11. Befora 10 0'clock to-day the grounds were thronged with people. The attondance at this hoilr wouid have made the day a suc- cess, but tho crowd conunued to swell in numbers until after midday, and at 2 o’clock Tully 40,000 people were taking in the attr tions. The multitude seemed to be a unit in pronouncing the fair the greatest the state has ever given. The morning hours gave some evidences of ramn, But the clouds lifted as the day ad- vanced, and on the whole it was ool and vleasant. Indeed, a fairer day for the expo- sition could not have been imagined. Regu- lar and special trains from all parts of tne state wero taxed to the utmost, and the same thing can be said of the convoyances to and from the grounds. This, in a manner, ex- plains the phenomenal attendance. The management expresses the utmost satisfac- tion at the indications, and state that with continued fair weather the morrow will more than weet the attending expenses Financially, therefore, the fair is already an assured success, A member of the state board of agriculture in- formed Tue Ber representative that 8,000 complimentary tickets had been issued and that there was still clamor for more. A pen picture that would adequately de- scribe the surging crowds of to-day would be an impossibility, Every platform containing an exhibit was alive with people all day long. In Agricultural, Horticultural and Art halls they were packed like savdines in a box. It ‘was nlmost impossible to crowd through the olleyways, and one had to be carried with the going and coming throngs. But the im- lement and machinery displays are upon a igher plane of interest than former years, Everything conceivable that yields to the band of man is to be seen. Beautifuliy painted steam threshers, the Corliss engines, the phaton, the carringe, the perfectly con- structed wagon of to-day, the silver displ plow, the plow equipped’ for the field, th sheller, hand and power, the drill and seeder, and harvesting machines of every pattern and description invites attention and admi- ration. One cannot do the state fair for 1859 in a single day. THE PISN EXHIBIT As in_the past, the fish exhibit is onme of the most popular and attac- tive on the grounds. Itis greatly enlarged over that of last year. Many new varietic: of fish are on exhibition. The house 18 nicely decorated with flags and streamers tastefully arranged, In all, there are sixteen aquari- ums which are divided into three departments, They ure filled with variegated trout, black bass, German carp, wall-eyed pike, salwon trout and catfish. The smalier aquariums show pick sunfish, channel cat, croppies, shiners, black-head minnows, buffalo, quill- backs, shovel-nosed sturgeon, goldfish, buil- ana black suckers, Tuere are snapping, soft-shelled and mud- turtles of the turtletribes. There are sixty jars of specimens of na- tive fishes and sixty of the deepsea fishes. Phere are twenty frames, containing nine ropresenting the varieties of fresh and sea fish, ven views of the state batcheries at South Bend are hung upon the walls. ~Forty portraits show scenes from the United States fisheries. A large jar contains seven brook trout, taken from Long Pine creek, and it is dem- onstrated that Nevraska has ono stream that will grow this variety. Another jar con- tains a specimed of the monster devil fish. Superintendent O'Brien, of the state fish- eries, is in charge of the exhibit. Lixcorx BureAu or Tae OMana Han, } The Big Parade, Thursday night will witness the big parade, for which a1l Lincol: has been prepuring for some days. The march will bo entirely over paved streets, and along brilliantly illumi- nated buildings. The line of march passes under a number of haundsome arches, tastily decorated, and brilliantly illuminated with incandescent electric lights. The arches are all gotton up with rare taste, but everybody agrees that tho arch on South Eleventh street is the handsomest of all. The two pillars are decorated with corn stalks and the arch is covered with electric lights. The “words, ‘“Welcome to the Nebraska State Fair,” emblazon either side. The other arches are decorated with paintingsillustrat- 1n§ the growth of the state. The line of murch will be as follows: The industrial and trades display will start from the corner of Oaud Twenty-seventh at 8o'clock sharp, and will be formed as fol- lows: First aivision, R. H.

Sixth division, Thomas Lowery, marshal, will form on Tweuty-fifth street, right rest- ing on O, left extending south Seventh division, W, L. Dayton, marshal, will form on Twenty-fourth, right resting on O, left extending north. The floats and organizations will be as- slgned to position before Thursday evening, ,and they will report to the several divisions, Horse Premiums.

Youth and beauty, as well as uge ‘and s>- berness, are to be seen av all times during the day in this veritable fairy bower, and such expressions as “'Oh, wy, isu’t this love- v!" are heard at every turn. These exclam- atory commendations, emanating from the myriads of the fair sex who haunt this build- ing and keep up a ceascless tramp in search of the beautiful, are not extravagant, but on the contrary are well deserved. Everybody agrees that the exhibition in art hall for 1889 doubly discounts that of any other year. No newspaper report can do 1t justice, and for one to attempt an enumeration would be sim- ply to court an endless tour which, though pleasant as were the fairy walks in the gar- den of Fden, would to a common mortal end n such heartuches and headaches as would drive one mad. Therefore nothing of the kind will be attempted, and only a few of the more notable will be mentioned. Musie, which is said to soothe the sava ge breast, is having much the same effect on the visitors at the fair and the firms which show musical instruments in Art hall have more people surrounding their displays than any other on the ground, Probably the leading firm on the ground is that of Max Meyer & Bro., of Omaha and Lincoln, who have a lurge display of reliable manos and organs which are shown by Miss Fannie Waldron, pranist, and Prof. J. Asher Parks, the teacher of voice culture at the new Lincoln conservatory of music. S, B. Holman, Lincoln, shows the Kroyer piano and the vocation Mason & Bisch organ, J. A. and 1. W. Anderson, of Mead, show the Moline organ. T, J. Curtis and W, D, Crawford show the Estoy pianos and organs, Curtice & Thiers, Lincola, exhibit a large line of first class musical instruments and musical goods. Prof. J. C. Miller, of Lincoln, exhibits the Decker piano. Shelton & Smith, Lincoln, a fine line of fancy furmiture, folding beds, etc, Rudge & Morris, Lincoln, hardware and stoves. W. W.

Among the almost innumerable exhibitors of paintings, crayon and pastelo work, tho following are believed to be worthy of spe- cial mention: A fine collection of oil paint- ings by Mrs. Nellie Mitchell, Lincoln; H. H. Bagg, Lincoln; Miss Mablo Merrell, Lin- coln; Mrs, [da Bennett, Lincoln; Niss Nellie Rosewater, Omaha; Mrs. J. O, Spahr, Sew- ard: Mrs. Gardner, Orleans.

Ill, A competent force of gentlemanly salesmen were on hand to show the line to the vis- Mr. C. H. Adams, the company's ant secretary from the home office, was prosent, as was also Manager W. S. Cass, who his charge of the exaibit and the com- pany’s business in Nebraska and western lowa, with headquarters at Council luffs, Messrs, Weirick and Rowlev, two of tho company’s able road reprosantatives, wero also on hand. Corn shellers for either hand or power are the most seasonable goods now shown, aud it was on the superior merits of these farm- ing necessities that our rural visitors mani- fested much nterest and admired the various foatures of these excellent machines. Aside from thesa an attractive line of windmills, cultivators, feed grinders, cornstalk cutters, bobslcds, horse powers and other farming utensils, ‘all constructed on the most practi- dal plans for durability, strength and adapt- ability for the work. ‘The Marseilles make of implements aro recognized among the very best made and nover-fail to find a ready sale in_all parts of the country, Many improvements have been made in the past few years that have been of great advantage and have proven a blessing to the tiller of the soil. Of course this has made friends for this popular make and cre- ated » larger demand than ever for these goods. “There are some historical points in coance- tion with the manufacture of the Adams cornsheller that are of more than passing notice. Mr. A. Adams, president of this company, s the original inventor of the self feeding ‘cornsheller, and holds the distine- tion of having established, at Elgin, 11, the first foundry and machine shops over started west of Lake Michigao; also of bLaving bought the first hard coal uud pig iron ever s0ld in Chicago. Moyer's Carriage Display. Of the fifty exbibits in the vehicle line, none excel the showing made by the well known and reputable house of H. A. Moyer, of Syracuse, N. Y. These goods bave been on the market for the past seventeen years, and not only are they to-day better known than the average makes, but in keeping with their reputation so many improvements have been made every season, until now the Moyer jobs have no equal in the wmarket where fine goods are approciated. Mr. L. C. Hill, wno has been in the car- riage trade in Nebraska for the past ten years, is the eficient ropresentative of this popular factory in the wess and has his headquarters in Omaha. Mr. Hill 18 assistod at the fair by local agent Mr. J. T. Jonos, of this cily, Who is taiing good caro of all callers, and the exhubit of flue jobs is such os to elicit both praise und favorable comment from all who see thew. Mr. Joues handles a complete line of Moyer carciages at his repository, northeast corner Tenth and N strects (second fioor), as well as a fize line of goods of other manufacturers. He has been engaged ift this line of business for & number of yeats, xnd as he thoroughly uaderstands every detail is building up 8 rofitable patronage. Mr. Jones is one of Lincoln's oldest and fost popular oitizens, having resided in the Uapital city since 1870 and having durigg that time beld the re- sponsible position 0T city treasurer for six consecutive yoars, The goods in the {isplay show the finest workmanship in phactons, surreys, sidobars, spring wagons, Moyér banner wagons, Con- cords and numerous othors. Of the Moyer manufacture of vehicles little can be said that would add to their already excellent reputation. The construction is scientific and practical, the pamting and finishing the best of art work, whila the durability is an ever seccessful feature of their jobs, and as for prices, they are dl\ways as low as is con- sistent with fine goods and first class work- manship and thorough reliable material. The J. 1, Case Plow Works' Display. Prominent among the exhibits of imple- ments is the attractive display made by the J. L. Case Plow works, of Racine, Wis. The work is in charge of the Nebraska agency, which is located at Omaha, and Manager C. C. Troxell is on the grounds with the follow- ing corps of able nssistants Messrs, N, B. Kizer, D. Thornson, C. G. Bryant and William Sabey, all of whom endeavor to en} tertain all callors to the best of their ability, which is by no means meagre. In tho array of farming necessitios we note a new sulky plow, built on three whoels. The advantake of this plow over all others is that it is more compact, stronger and con- structed entirely on scientific principles, With this machine any sort of acorner, from the longest turn to & square, can easily bo made. The new combined lister and drill attracted considerable attention from the visitors and its merits were justly appreci- ated by every interested observer. It 1s the ouly lister made with a wheel attachment that will regulate depth. lighten the draft and at the same time give steady motion, and 18 guaranteed to pull one horse lighter than any other machine of the kind. The improved walking and riging cultiva- tor is an att ractive machine, and for simplic- aty, durability and general construction ex- cels all competitors. An important feature is that it has a sliding wheel, thus making the cultivator perfect for either riding or walking, it bemg perfectly balanced at all times, Westinghouse Engines and Threshers The Westinghouse company, Scheucctady. Y., have on exhibition a ten-horse trac- tion engine and separator, in charge of their agents, G. A. Robinson, Ashland, and J. H. Tilden, Bradshaw. While this eagino has the general appearanve of a vertical fluod boiler it is constructed entirely different, and no other engine will run on less fuel. Thewr separator has many points of excel- lence which should be examined. Western Manufacturing Co. The characteristic enterprise of the West- ern Manufucturing company, of Lincoln, is manifest on the grounds again this year. One could not find a finer display of farm implements, machinery, vuggies, carriages, phaetous and spring wagons i a yenr travel than this company has on exhibition. ‘This display is situated at the very gate of the vast array of implement halls and plat- forms, and is under the direct superintend- enceof M. D. Welch, ‘secretary and trea: urer of the company, than who: no one knows better how o exhibit goods. For years Mr, Welch was the state ageat of the Caldwell Wagoa company, and he has an acquaintance second to none among the old- time traveling men of the state, and wherever known his word is as good as gold. He is efficiently assisted by R. F. Connor, one of the company’s regular traveling men, ana R H. Rathborn. H. J. Welch is the acting president and W.'W. Marsh, superin- tendeant of shovs. This trio of business men are making implement iutorests hum, and the company 1s fast taking front rank among the maoufacturers ol the great west. Among the seasonable goods tho company has ou ex- hibition may be meationed the Climax end wate, the Defiance one-hole sheller and the Capital horse power, ‘l'he device and im- plements mentioned are of modern patent, perfoct in construction, casy to operate, de- sirable and equal to anything of the kind in use. The end gate is without a veer. It is substantial, durable and convemient. It can be lowered without the driver's having to get off the wagon. It can be used asa dump at warehouses, saves time, and no farmer, teamstor or grain man can afford to be without one. Iron flexible harrows, Cap- ital stock cutters. Capital planters, Union sulky hay rakes, Capizal mowers aud Capi- tal check mowers are also prominent in the catalogue of the company’s machinery, and tbey swell their magniticent collection on exhibition. But the ‘‘write'up” of this ex- hibit would be incomplete without mention- ing the Maud S Nationai side springs bnggy, surreys, Park wagons, the Ketchum and Perry road cart, the Taylor three-spring and combination wagon and the Ludlow and Corning pump seats. Inshort, the company is prepared to flll any order that *‘runs on wheels.” Last, but not least, comes the cooperage manufacturing plant. Although the company turns out 600 barrels and tierces each day, it is impossible to fill the orders coming in from day to day. The company owns its own timber and mills, which are located in Arkansas, and within the next thirty days expects 1o double the manufac- turing capacity. This 1s fast becoming one of the great iudustries of the state and west, 18 growing in popularity every day, and be- cause of the superiority of the goods turned out. Duancan and Dille Dead. Mr. Duncan, the gentleman who was inoc- ulated by Dr. Brown-Sequard’s elixir of life recently, died this morning. It is said that his death was a very peaceful one. Mr. Dille also passed o atdawn. It will be remembered that Le scratched his band on a rusty nail a short ume since, and blood pois- oning resulted. The remains of both geatle- meun will be laidin the grave to-morrow. A Pointed Request, The state board of transportation received a letter from the county attorney of Pawnee county, to-day, requesting that the Burling- ton railroad company be urged to drain the ‘Y ut Table Rock. It appears that the Y is constructed so that whenever heavy rains come, the waters dam up, and in time become stagnant and a consequent breeder of sickness and disease, The ‘‘request’’ is couched in words that mean that something will be done if it is ignored. City News and Notes. A. H. McElroy, of Omaha, traveling sales- man for George A. Hammond & Co., was a visitor at Tne Bek headquarters to-day. He came aown 1o take in the state fair, Final hearving on the injunction suits brought against the city and Marshal Car- der, by the rapid transit folks will take place before Judge IMield on next Monday. The motor, in the weaut me, will continue to run to O stroet. Fitzgerald thus scores a tem- porary victory. Something like forty arrosts were made by the police force last night. Strangers were run in indiscriminately, Drunkuuness aad disorderly conduct wera the principal l"h;n'uus. Judge Houston is haviog his hands ull. Judge Dundas, of the Nemaha County Grangor; W. H.
