Here are repre- sented Nebraska's once infant industries, now infantile no longer, but showing every evi- dence of development and vigor. In the original plan of the managers one-half of this bullding was set aside for the use of the Manufacturers and Consumers’ association of Nebraska. But It was soon found that the #pace proposed would be entirely inadequate nd the entire bullding was finally given over to the assoclation, with the exception of a few spaces, which are occupled by firms which are not members of that organization, and one corner which was reserved for the educational display. The result has justified the action of the managers and Is a surprise to thousands of visitors, who had not gined that Nebraska contained so many and varied industries. The credit for this elaborate display is largely due to Secretary 0. C. Holmes of the association, who has labored for two months past (o bring about the interest of members and assist them to make a display which would be creditable to themselves and to the organization. Mr. Holmes assigned the space In the building and visited every mem- ber who was exp cted to make an exhibit. Ho showed them designs which had been used successtully in other states and induced them to take an added interest in the under- taking. OBJECT OF THE ASSOCIATION The oxhibits which fill the bulldings are conclusive evidencz that the manufaciurers of Nebraska are all right. They have had a hard row to hoe during the past two years, but they have fought their way through with truly western grit and enterprise, and have come out on the upper side. ~As this display is pre-eminently representative of the Manu tacturers' and Consumers' assoclation it fs of Interest to note that the association was organized in 1891 for the dual purpoze of promoting manufacturing in Nebratka and arousing a sentiment throughout the state in favor of the patronage and maintainment of home Industries. How far this has been successful In the face of hard times and many obstacles, a trip through the builling at the state falr grounds is the best evidence, The esent officers of the assoclation are: Presi- a ft, J. C. Harpham » president, C. B. Dempster; treasurer, L. M. Rheem; sccre'ary, O. C. Holmes; directors, M. C. Peters, D. Farrell, jr., Samuel Ree:, R. F. Hodgin, Adolph Meyer, M. G. Kibbs, W. A, Page, Charles A, Cos, George M. Tibbs, L. G. Doup, Charles Metz, J. H. Barrett, E. P. Davis, G. W. Mercer, A. J. Vierling, J. H. Bvans, Aaron Chadwick, W. W. Cole, H. F. Cady, L. M. Rhe Omaha; George H. Clarke, M. A. Warren, Charles Hawley, S J. Alexander, B, C. Teftt, J. C. Harpham, H. S, Lippincott, Lincoln; C. F. Demp:ter, Beatrice; T. F, Hummel, Fremont; and B. P. Egan, Nebraska City. Among the exhibits there are many In which may be seen the practical operation of the machinery, and at least the partial pro- cess of manufacture of the product. These are generally new to the visitors and the jacent passages are continually packed by a throng of interested observers. Among the most Interesting of these displays s that of the Lincoln Pottery works, which has a large space near the east entrance. They have a large display of their manufactured goods, but what catches the eyes of the visitors is the man+ who occuples one corner of the space and is constantly engaged in turning out finished pieces with a dexterity that elicits general interest. The operation is new to Omaha people and must be seen to be appreciated. The workman sits behind a flat disk, which Is rapidly revolved by a treadle. A lump of the soft clay is dumped in the center of the disk, and the hands are ractically the only instrument that is used n converting it into a jug, a flower pot, vaso or beer mug. A hundred different de- signs are rapidly worked out under the manipulation of the skilled operator and set one side to harden KEARNEY'S COTTON MILL. A. Rosenbury of Omaba has a section of his sash, door and blind foctory in full op= eration and his booth fs artistically con- sfructed of samples of his mouldings and her products. The Aloe & Pentold company show the method of manufacture of their deformity braces. This is a recent industry in Ne- ‘braska and the operations of the workmen are-viewed with interest. An exhibit of surgl- cal instruments and trusses completes the display. Another very interesting feature is the ex- hibit of the Kearney cotton mills. Their space is decorated with spindles and the manufactured cloth and two looms running at full speed are a constant attraction to the multitude. The W. A. Page Soap company has a very attractive exhibit near the cast entrance. The corner of the booth is an immease pyra- mid of castile soap, and behind is shown a huge pyramid of uncut blocks of the same article, the base of which is a mammoth chuck of cleanliness which weighs 800 pcunde, A pressing machine, which turns out the blocks ready for wrapping, will be in opsra- tlon today. P. J. Qualey & Co. a'so have a fine dis- play of manufictured soap, and their booth is a very pretty design, with pink and yel- low decorations. One of the most attractive exhibits is that of the American Biscuit company of Omaha, which has a large space in which to display its product. The department is arranged to form a very pretty grotto, in which the walls are formed of glass cases of fancy biscuits and cookles, and the roof 1s a very effective Dbit of design in Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben colo The display is much adm'red and has bee ronounced equal to most of the similar ex- ibits ut the World's fair. Farrell & Co. of Omaha have two boothe, one of which is devoted to an exhibit of fine teas and coffees, In dacorated cans, and the other to their preserves, syrups, extracts and baking powders, The decorations are in red, white and blue The Drummond Carriage company fills a lJarge booth with samples of its make. There is a handsome depot wagon which was bullt for Senator Manderson and a ‘“‘salon” trap for J. H. Evani Another feature is the fancy buggy especially constructed for the use of “‘Samson,” which is the first buggy to be built in Nebraska with ball bearings and pneumatic tires. ‘The Omaha Hydraullc Pressed Brick com- rnny has a good exhibit which shows all of ts makes of plain and fancy pressed brick. Sherman & McConnell, Omaha, have filled their booth with an attractively arranged pat- ent medicine display. The Lincoln Vinegar works has all varieties of clders on exhibition and pyramid of barrels and the show of glass jars of clders are made attractive by tasteful decoration The dlsplay includes peach, orange, claret, ‘nr. pear, quince and apple ciders. The Nebraska City Cannery company has & big exhibit of its product, These form the walls of the booth, while a pagoda roof is added in Ak-Sar-Ben decorations. This com- ny captures the favor of the housewives C; Qistributing samples of goods. The Kearney Cycle company has a large rundn near the center of the bullding. This s & very pretty structure decorated in light colors and contains a large assortment of Wheels. WHERE CIGARS ARE MADR. One of the most Interesting displays is that of the Hene Cigar company of Omaha It has a factory In full operation and the clgars deftly rolled by a half dozen very pretty gl in white caps and neat striped ‘waists, There s always & crowd around th booth watching the unaccustomed spectacle of feminine fingers preparing the fragrant roMs that they will subsequently condemn mum«n- for smoking. Kalz-Nevens company of Omaha has * Which 1s & o el Elmendort | took first on bull, 2 years old and under 3, of Omaha who had not realized that they had a full-fledged clothing factory in their midst. The display includes all grades of shirts and rough trouserings and also samples of overcoats and suitings good enough for anybody, The company has not pretended to manufacture aaything but the coarser grades, but It expects to soon ex- tend its business into the better lines. Willlam Preston & Co. of Omaha have an attractive display of flour and breakfast dishes and their exhibit includes a Kiichen, where these and puddings made of their flour are served to the hungry. Their booth is very appropriately decorated with wheat and sickles. Kopp, Dreibus & Co. of Omaha have one of the finest candy displays ever seen at the state fair. It Includes more than 1,000 pounds of sweetmeats and their booth is an artistic creation of Ak-Sar-Hen colors. Harpham Bros, of Lincoln have a big ex- hibit of harness and saddles, with a couple of operators at work. One of the prettiest of the smaller booths is that cccupled by the Hendy Headache Cap- sule company. It is beautifully constructed of red, yellow and green streamers in which a most artisitic design is worked out. Ira B. Loons and H. Sundeen show a chair and a chess table of buffalo horns. The chess table represents a vast amount of work and is one of the most beautiful pleces of hand work at the fair. Each leg 1s a beautifully polished buffalo horn and the body s con- structed of inlaid pleces of horn ,which com- pletes ‘a marvel of painstaking skill, W. A. Wallace, Omaha, has a display of office and saloon fixtures which Is remirk able In its way. He sbows a soda wite canopy of birdseye map'e and Hirilas veneer which Is a beauti‘ul pleze of workmen- ship and Is the first of its Kind ever manu- factured outside of Boston and Philadelphia. A. Hospe, Omaha, has a tty exhibit of paintings, frames and other similar ma- terlals. One of the most novel displays is that of the Nebraska Seed company, Omaha. It has & largo exhibit of seeds, but the maln at- traction of the booth is an immense pic ture, “On to the Feast” which is entirely constructed of se:ds. There are six fizures in the picture, and they are repri-ented with marvelous fidelity to nature. The Omaha Silicon Wall Plastering and Manufacturing company has a booth built of its product. The wails and columns show the adaptability of the material, and the v\;hnle is finished to make an a'trac.ive dccora- tion, The Consolidated Coftee company, Omaha, has an extensive exhibit and its booth is a very pretty arrangement of Japanese parasols over a setting of Ak-Sar-Ben colors. At the extreme eastern end of the building are a couple of displays which are a source of much aggravation to the thirsty mortals who wearlly push their way through the passages. These are the exhibits of the Omaha Brewing association and the Fred Krug Brewing company. Both are among the most artistic designs in’the building and the bottles and barrels, highly polished and tull of the amber liquid, are made into in- viting pyramids, Among the other firms who have exhibits in this building are: A. B. Smith Syrup company, Hastings; King Press Drill com- pany, Blue Springs; Dempster Mill Manufac- turing company, Beatrice; Beatrice Buildifig and Paving company; Beatrice Barbed Wire company, Fremont Parlor Furniture and Mattress company, S.

Washington County Wins Out with First Prize on Fruit, In speaking to a representative of The Bee yesterday afternoon President E. F. Stephens of the Nebraska Horticultural soclety sald: “Horticultural hall shows more and better fruit this year than ever before. The soclety realized at the start that Omaha had ex- pended more money than ever before devoted to a state fair, and the society felt bound to work harder than ever to make the '95 fair a success." This statement briefly tells the whole story, for no one can carefully examine the well arranged exhibits without being convinced that the soclety has done its part, and has done that part well. The bullding 1s 60x100 feet, and every inch of this floor space is utilized. Several fruit growers who arrived on the scene of actionp rather late have taken up positions just outside the building, near the north entrance. One of these said yester- day that he had as many callers as though he were located within the building, but he wi not particularly well pleased with the gusts of dust. The county exhibits ar: systematically ar- ranged along the four sides of the hall, while the individual displays are given space on the tables running the length of the bullding, from entrance to exit. A marked feature of these exhibits is the large number of new comel the field of horticulture, Thelr products are among the best and rank alongside those of older and more experienced growers. In quality as well as quantity of exhibts, Buffalo, Hall and Kearney counties vie with Cass, Nemaha and Richardson. Over 900 entris have been made sum- er pples, three times many s usual. = One hundred bushels of fruit bave already been placed under the tables or carted away for lack of room. F haps another 100 bushels have been used in decoration of pillars and wall designs. Choice foll plants are ranged along the walls and on center Superintendent Adams of the city parks has loaned a large number of plants to aid the soclety in beautitying its bullding. Near the office of the secretary is displayed an elegant design made by D. C. Mosher of Lincoln, second vice president of the horticultural scclety, and designed by Mrs, Bdward Whitcomb, it is & lyre made THE OMAHA DAILY . BEE: WED*F’EGDAY., SEPTEMBER 18, 1895.

Washington county has a large assortment of fruit in its exhibit, there being 181 v rieties of pears, plums, apples, peaches and grapes there, This display succeeded in car- Trying off first prize, $40, although Washing- ton was hard pressed by several other coun- ties which had excellent exhibits. Nemana has a large and well arranged dllrh in the southwest corner of the hall and was awarded second prize for the county exhibit. Richardson county's exhibit, which sectred third prize, consisted of seventy-two varieties of peaches, thirty-nine varleties of apples, and a large number of other fruits. Sarpy county made rather an extensive ex- hibit and was rewarded with the fourth prize. York, Buffalo, Cuming, Hall and Cass countles also have fine displays. The cx- nibit of Duffalo county was rather divided, some of the fruit having gone to the Agri- coltural building. An interesting part ot the Buffalo county display was a branch of a Walbridge apple tree, fourteen inches long and cortaining twenty-nine apples, The Horticultural building was popular all day yesterday, especially when the clouds of dust” were thickest outside. This* was due not only to the attractive exhibts there, but {o the thoughtfulness of the officers in charge in providing cool drinking water in abundance, and drink ng water was a rare luxury oa th» fair grounds yesterday. Among ths p om- inent horticulturalists who cal'ed at Secretary Reed's offica yesterday were M. J. Wrogg, delegate from the Iowa State Horticultural society to the falr; L. 0. Willlams cf Coun- cfl Bluffs and R. W. Carson, Minden, Ia, In addition to, the county awards hercto- fore mentioned, J. M. Russell & Son of Gage county were given first prize for the largest dizplay and greatest number of varieties of peaches exhibited. Fred Behlen of Coumbus was awarded first prizc for the best exhbit of plums, For the best collec ioa of pears W. H. Thompson of West Point was awarded first, and C. H, Barnard of Table Ro-k sec ond prize. Prizes in 1 Hall. In Floral hall there was a crowd all day yesterday, and from 2 o'clock unti] 4 in the afternoon the superintendent found it neces- sary to close the doors in order that the awarding committee could get an oppor- tunity to perform its labors.

It will give anther concert in the grand stand at 10 o'clock this forenoon, at which the following program will be rendered ce—"'Simplici The Palm: Relgen” se—“Des Aborigenes’ Marche Characteristique Armee Kommt'. Finale—Hymn, “Ange Thiere Hells rth ller State Fair Notes. Frank Secor, a hardware man of Prague, was an arrival at the grounds yesterday. He says it beats the world. The Grand Island band gave the morning concert at the band stand yesterday, and elicited general commendation. A valuable package was found in the grand stand last night and taken to the fair grounds police station, where it awaits an owner. Iowa business men are becoming quite nu- merous at the fair. Among those who arrived yesterday were William Staar, Walnut; Frank Mann, Shelby, and H. P. Larsen, Mc- Paul, It was rumored around the grounds yester- day that a call for cold tea at certain stands had the effect of drawing forth a cold glass of another beverage more foamy in its nature, Everyone connected with the fair manage- ment is busy, but jubilant, today. The crowa exceeds their most sanguine expectations and it is freely predicted that it will pass the 50,~ 000 mark before the end of the week. Mrs. Moulton was walking through the tex- tile bullding yesterday when she felt a sharp pull at her ‘hand bag. She looked around to find that one of the handles had been torn off, but no further damage done. The wild cherry phosphate fountains of the Women's Christian Temperance union did an immense business yesterday, as the policy of the fair management seemed to be to make it as difficult as possible to obtain a glass of water. The expert judge of the exhibit of women's work in the textile bullding has succeeded in keeping her identity unknown to all but the officers in charge. She began arranging and classifying the exhibits yesterday after- noon, preparatory to making her awards. The proprietors of the various eatlng stands themselves admitted that they were surprised that the demand for food exceeded the supply Several proprietors turned away hungry in- quirers as soon as the supply of food began to run short, but then there were ever so many more who took no such pity on the stranger. Albert Degner, Norfolk; Frank Haskevee, Bruno; Willlam Rutherford, Aurora; Lars Ottison, Minden; George Rominger, David City; P. Inglis, Pawnee City; W. R. Laump, Oakdale; A. D. Lane, Albion; H. P. Hansen, Oakdale, and George Camp of Lincoln were among the Nebraska merchants who visited the fair yesterday. One young man said yesterday that it took the electric car on which he paid his fare two hours to reach the fair grounds. But this was not so bad as the case of Florists Frey & Frey of Lincoln. Their cut flowers left the business portion of Omaha at 11 o'clock yesterday morning and arrived at Floral hall a few minutes after 4, too late to be included In the competition for prizes, which had just been awarde SCORES OF TH N LEAGUE.

RACING AT THE “STATE FAIR| f — 0 Speed Ring Attractions Comprise Two Har- ness and One Saddle Race, FLYING JIB AND AZOTE GIVE EXHIBITIONS Famous Leaders of M¢Dowell's String Pleaned the People Who Draved an Awful Storm to See the Day's Raee The day's speed ring attrastions at the state fair, adde from the exhibiion mil's by Salisbury's Flying Jib and Azots, were meager indeed, there being but three events, the 2:50 trot, 2:40 pac» and a half-m and repeat running. There was but little excite ment in either the trot or pace, while the running race was equally spiriticss, but, brief as the card was, poor management dragged the events out until well after 6 o'clock, and by the time the star attractions of the d the great pacer Flying Jib, and the phenom- enal glant Azote were brought out, over huif the vast crowd which had packad the granl stand all the afternoon hal gone. The si- moon, blowing like a blast from a furnace from the south, with its execrable attendants in the way of deluges of dust, wAs too much for the fortitude of the specators, and in self-defense they were driven from th: grounds, The Jib got oft on the first attempt at a high rate of speed. He made the half in 1:02%, then began to slow as he rounded the three-quarters, but again quickened his pace when the stretch was reached. MeDowell drove him home in grand style, crossing the mark in 2:07%. The glant son of Whips, the great Azote, acted equally well, and there was no sense- less preliminary furbelows. He hit the half in 1:01 and came home like a whirlwind, making the mile in 2:05%, remarkably good time considering the wind, the fiying dust and newness of the track, Both horses were applauded to the echo, and the crowd accepted the exhibition as a very meritorious perform- ance and a grand treat.

Baltimore and Boston Play All After- noon and Divide Gamen. BOSTON, Sept. 17.—The Boston and Bal- timore teams battled for nearly four hours this agternoon, dividing the honors at the close of the play. The first game was close and 8,000 people were kept In suspense until the last man was out. Both Sullivan and Clarkson were effective, but Boston would have won had it not been for inexcusable errors by Harrington and other infleld- ers, which let {n runs when the side should ha.~ been retired.

Stuart Chemical Co., Marshall, Mich. 'HAD THE CRACKS TOGETHER Henry of Navarre Easily Shows Himself the Best of the Bunch, DOMINO WAS THE FIRST TO QuIT All Practically Done at the Streteh Except the Winner—Clifford Hent Sir Walter for Place—Several Good Events on the Card. NEW YORK, Sept. 17.—This was a great day at the Gravesend track, for it was the opening of the fall season with the greatest race of the year as the feature. The attend- ance was light, when the attractions are taken into consideration, for barely 5,000 peaple appeared. All during the yean efforts have been made to bring the five best handi- cap horses together, and finally, without any agreement, the Brooklyn Jockey club has succeeded in getting them into their regular stake, with Heary of Navarre, Rey el Santa Anita and Domino at weights for age, Clifford with five pounds off and Sir Walter with twelve pounds allowance. Griffin, instead of Perkins, was given the mount on Navarre ¥ this e Relff got Rey el Santa Anita, and Sims was on Clifford, Taral on Domino and Doggett on Sir Walter. When the betting opened there was no doubt of the favorite, for Henry of Navarre opened at § to 1, but in spite of the money bet on him did not get any lower. The reason of this was the betting on Clifford, for Roge had declared he would win, The opening price was 21, and he was soon at 2. Domino receded to 4 from 21, and Rey el Santa Anita from 8 to 12, while Sir Walter was steady at 3 fo 1. At the post Domino acted like a demon and refused to break, o0 It was ten minutes before they came up to the starter in line and the red flag dropped. Sir Walter was the first to show, and came into the streteh for the first timé under a gentle pull, with Rey el Santa Anjta second and Henry of Gavarre third, Clifford fourth and Domino last. They came down fn front of the grand stand at little more than an exsreise gallop, nearly all of them buck jumping, and the first quarter took twenty-six and one-fourth seconds. Around the turn they increased their speed a little, and at the three-eighths Sir Walter was a length and a half In front of Rey el Santa Anita, and only a head in front of Navarre, while. Domino was last, hanging close to Cliftord. Fiity-three seconds was the time to the half mile and the race had just begun. It took twelve and one-quarter seconds to run the next furlong and Taral had begun to urge Domino and passed Clifford, on whom Sims was sitting easily. The three-quarters pole was reached in 1:17%. Sir Walter was lead- ing without much urging and Rel el Santa Anita had opened a bit of clear track from Henry of Navarre, who was two lengths in front of Domino and all but the latter was going easily. Then the horses slacked and it took thirteen seconds for the racers to get around the bend, but without change of posi- tion. JOURNEY TOO LONG FOR DOMINO. In the next thirteen seconds came the crit- ical point for Domino. Would he go beyond what was supposed to be his distance? Taral was at work with iron and bat and the black colt leaped ahead, but only for an instant. Yard by yard the others loft him struggling in the rear and at the mile post, when the horses straightened out into the stretch, he was hopelessly beaten. At the head of the streteh Sir Walter was still in the lead, hay- ing run the mile in 1:431, but was in_trouble and Doggett was plying the whip. He was only a neck in front of Rey el Santa Anita, but Henry of Navarre was coming and only a neck behind fn third place. Clifford was fourth, but too long a distance behind, and now Sims was riding hard. . With only an cighth of a mile to go Rel el Santa Anita quit and joined Domino, although Reiff still tried to land him. Sir Walter was through too, and the best he could do was third. Grif- fiin on Navarre was through urging, for only an accident could prevent his winning, and at 2:09 by the timer's watch he passed the line well in front. Clifford managed to get the place away from Sir Walter in the last sixteenth, end again the gallant son of Mid- lothian had to take a lower place. It was a contest of the giants, In which Henry of Navarre was the best by long odds. The first race was a handicap of six fur- longs, with Flying Dutchman as a pro- nounced favorite, Spades stayed at the front and lasted long enough to beat Rubicon, who came with a rush, by a nose in the fast time of 1:15%. Patriclan was an oddson favorite for the second race and won easily. Holly handicap, a fast class of 2-year-olds, went to the post and Margrave was the favorite. Floretta set a rattling pace to the last fur- long, when Ben Brush, Margrave and Cres- cendo passed her and finished in that order. The fifth was for 2-year-olds and a wild plunge on Woodbine made her a 1 to 2 shot, and she won all the way with ease. In the Jast Lucania was the favorite.
