UST DW OF THE FAR 'The Rain Spoiled the Exhibi- tion--Merchants Who Ex- hibited Were Rewarded. The fair grounds were too wet to! | carry out the programme set for| | Friday but there was a fairly good attendance of visitors. When asked for a statement showing the approxi- | mate attendance since the first day, Manager R. J. Bushell stated that it was in the neighborhood of 19,000. The chief attractions on Friday were the palace, poultry show, vegetable exhibits, school fair, horses, cattle, hogs and sheep. It was a matter for | regret that the parade of pure bred, | prize winning live stock codld not! | take place Friday as announced, ow- | ing to the muddy condition of the { track. Some of tke cattle exhibitors | began during the afternoon, when the rain stopped, to take thair catc'» home. Among them was W. A. Mai | tin & Sqn gCorbyville, who won fi. { teen first prizes for Shropshire and | Oxford sheep, and Berkshire hogs. ! They sold on the ground. xp Oxford ishearlings, one lamb and .. Berkshire hog. Baker Bros'. pure bred Holstein i / | marked that | cate at the fair grounds, where they when in Toronto, took up the matter with the provincial authorities, and was given to understand that any-, thing that was permited at the To- ronto exhibition would be O. K. for ingston. What he learned in To- ronto has proven not to be the case. He is convinced that the majority of the people who attend the fairs en- joyed hearing'the noise of the men who run the whéels of fortune, etc., and if any of them lost money they would not go home bewailing the fact. Many people came to King- ston solely for the purpose of visit- | ing the side shows where they could have a good time playing at the! games of chance. One director re-| during the summer months visiting companies were per- | mitted to come to Kingston and lo- put on shows which were prohibited | during the Kingston industrial ex- hibition. They believe that what was right for one party should be right for the other, or in other words, | if one show company was allowed tc have a certain class of amusements why should an exception be made of the fall fairs? | Successful Breeders.

Reid, SHOE STORE RUTHER ARR HHH will wind up the proceedings. During Friday afternoon large numbers of visitors poured into the grounds despite the mud and founA the palace attractions a never-ending source of interest. The merchants | had a splendid opportunity to explain the many. superior advantages of | their exhibits, by which the visitor profited and will remember when he needs to purchase an article that he can do better in Kingston than any- where else. Much favorable comment was heard upon the superior quality of the goods displayed and of the at- tention shown by those in charge of { them. The natural result will be a great stimulation to business, in which event the efforts of those who contributed to the success of the fair will be rewarded. Directors Not Down-hearted. "It has rained two days this week, but don't think we are down-hearted for we are going to have a bigger and better fair next year," was the remark of one of the directors of the Kingston industrial exhibition to a Whig representative reporter on Friday afternoon. During the rain on Friday after- noon, the Whig man dropped in to the secretary's-treasurer's office, where he found the manager and a number of the directors present. There was not one director who showed any sign of discouragement, as all realized that the rain must come, and if Kingston fair didn't get it some other fair would. "Bob" Bushell remarked, "Say, do you know men, if it hadn't rained on Thurs- day, we would have had the largest crowd ever known in the history of Kingston, at the fair." He believ- ed there was a larger crowd in the city yesterday than any time during his experience with fairs, but un- fortunately the rain started and many "beat it" for home, while hun- dreds went to the picture shows and the opera house. Many of the directors of the fair do not feel, that as far as the side shows were concerned, any harm would have l:on done if certain stands which : ere ordered to be clos- ed had been aliowed to remain open. They feel that an injustice has been done to Kingston industrial exhibi- tion in view of the fact that Toronto and Ottawa exhibitions were permit- ted to have these attractions. Man- ager Bushell has in his possession a document which has been forwarded to J. L. Whiting, crown attorney, by the Attorney-General's 'department advising him what kind of shows would be permitted. He, Mr. Bush- ell thought that certain civic auth- orities had been too prominent in the closing up and prohibiting of shows which were clajmed to be con- trary to the Act. Certain directors suggested that If the government was desirous that the law in this re- spect should be lived up to, it was not up to any of the local author- ities to move, until such time as the government detectives were on the job. Some time before the Kingston exhibition opened, Manager Bushell, Napanee Students Have Returned to Their Studies.

ARLIE MARKS PLAYERS Give A Fine Performance at the Gran The Arlie Marks Associated Play- ers filled the Grand for the third time on Friday evening, their well balanced company meeting with ap- proval from Kingston theatre goers. The play presented was "The Girl From Out Yonder," a pretty tale of the love and devotion of a waif from the sea. Flotsam, a role taken by Miss Arlile Marks, who is a very clever little actress, richly de- served the applause which greeted her. Dan Fendell, as Captain Bar- ton, her foster-father, filled his pathe tic role admirably, and his farewell to his little Flotsam when awaiting the coming of police brought tears to many eyes. Miss Jane Lambe, in exceedingly pretty frocks, played the part of Pe lover's aunt most grace- fully, and Miss Lenna Fendell, as the happy widow, and Marshal Hale, as her would-be-lover, provided much clean fun. Madame Salone, "the woman who knows." answered questions with the aid of her crystal bowl in a truly marvellous fashion. Altogether the Marks company is to be congratulat- ed on providing their large audience with a thoroughly enjoyable even- ing. It will appear at the Grand again this evening.
