Yesterday was a top-notcher in local sport” ing cireles, 5,000 people having been inter- estod spectators on the several races provided by the Douglas County Fair association. The day was an ideal Septemoer day, with just the faintest suspicion of fall frestunss in' the atmosphere. And socioty kunocked olbows with doad game sports, tho business man became an interested owner in hat pools, the women wagored boxes of gloves and candies on the results, and everywhere there was the suggestion that a good-natured Omaha public was enjoying 1tself. The railed enclosure about the judges’ stand was filled with gay equipages occupied by handsomely costumed women, while the grand stand was a kaleidoscopo of color. Tho track, whilo appearing in excellent condition, was considerod a bit heavy by 1ho drivers, yot the records made by some of tho equines do not show that they so re- garded the course. On the contrary, some of the marks are considered unusual on a half-mile track, But whether hoavy or not, the people enjoved the races, and that's all that is necessury, ‘Phe hopes of many who wero component parts of that picturesque scene were moro “han reanzed; the anticipations of hundreds were somewhut dampened. Butthe favor- \tes don’t always win, and the short horse is very often good for a place. Youngsters Opened It.

But the clip seemed just a bit too fast for- Robbie, for when the half mile post was reached Dandy Jim took the pluce from Mr. Pyle’s clever goer, but it didn’t sast long. Robbic P, aithough by no means the favorite, wauted the heat and he got it when the mile was ended, Dandy Jim a close second, Ignis Fatuus third, Kitty Vera fourth, Lycurgus favorite in the pools, showing conclusively that it wasn’t his day.

When they reacked the quarter pole the bell called back tha last of them, some of them who wore slow in rounding the turn discovering for themselves that the flag was not dropped. Mr. Swigert drove a cork in his uppermost lung and_ finally succeoded in getting them off.

Belle Acton, the phenomenal little year- ling pacer that holds the world’s racord for that age, went against her mark of 2:231, and while she did not reach it her attempt was fully eaual to it, all things considered, Mr. Chandler nodded for the word as he came dowa the first time, but the little won- der broke on the turn and they came back to try itover. ‘The next attempt was more #uccessful.

The comeay is full of amusing situations, which gave the big audienc sibilities little time for rest, and it 18 guito within bounds to say that iv was at times a *‘voaring”’ farce. The performance was introduced with a littie curtain-raiser entitled *“Why,” an uo- usually clover skil of the Kkind, which was put on by Mr. Rising and four of the sup- porting company with diverting effective- ness.

The meeting was under the auspices of the Young Men's Re- publicau club, and its success was due to the efforts of the members. Several of tue dele- gates returning home from the Grand Islana convention stopped off to tuke in the rally and lend their enthusiasm. The Bohemian baud opened the meeting with music, and President McCulloch ex- tended & welcome to those present on behalt ofthe clul. He then Introduced D H. Mekcer, who spoke for nearly a half hour and was attentively Jistered to. He handled very ably the taviff and money questious and his remarks were frequentily interrupted with applause.

The reason given 18 that Cor- bett's friends do not wish him subjected to the aanger of an attack of malaris. Major Powers of the Piedmont Air line said that ten sleepers have already been engaged on the Corbett train and thav it is likely that the special wili be run in two sections. In that event it is not unlikely that arrange- ments will be made to have one of the soc- tions reach nere on Monday night in order that those in the party who desire may have the opportunity of seeing the first of the three fights of the series. President Camovell of the Southern Ath- letic club will appoint a commiutee to meet Corbett at the irain and escors him to the club.

President Noel will appoint a committee of the Olympic club to meet the champion at_the train and take him to his temporary quarters. Arrange- | ments are being made to securo | quarters for Sullivan on Rampart street, mnear the Young Men's Gym- nastic club, and it is quite likely that the big fellow, for the few days he 1s in town, will have the -ame rooms he occupied whon ho stopped here just before the Kiivain fight. Mr. William Reynolas, who is putting up a small fortune on Amatour Skelly, arrived this morning from over the lake, and says everything 15 going on swimmingly at the Rovertson quarters, and that Skelly 1s in wood condition for the fizht. Reynolds’ confidence in Skelly is sublime, Ho came over to make some arrangements touching the arrival of his man in town on Monday.

To wash it often and clean, without doing any sort of violence to it, re- quires a most gentle soap, a soap with no free al- kali in it. Pears’ is supposed to be the only soap in the world that has no alkali mn it. All sorts of stores sell it, especially druggists; all sorts of people use it.
