This, the Last Day, Dedicated To Cin-dnnati People Baby Show With 400 Entries.

The heavy rains of yesterday afternoon marred the performances and curtailed the crowds at the Carthage Fair. Up to the time of the first downpour the attendance had been good, but the people stopped coming as soon as the weather changed. Scarcely 10.000 persons were on the grounds in the afternoon. The race track was transformed Into a lake of muddy water and. although It drained off quickly, was deemed too heavy by the Judges and horsemen for them to follow out the racing program.

As a result, all of the harness races were declared off and In their stead a number of running races were put on late In the afternoon. On account of the Inclement weather patrons of the fair will miss three good races. On the card yesterday were- the 2:15 pace. with six entries; the 2:10 pace, with 14 en tries, and the 2:23 pace, with 14 entries. SmltUe, the bandmaster, pacified the restless audience in the' grand stand by playing "Wait TIU the Sun Shines, Nellie.

while big drops of rain dug furrows la the race track. The weather proved a blessing to the Midway shows, all of which performed to large audiences. Disappointed by the lack of excitement on the race track the crowds flocked to the shelter of the show tent a They saw the lady fight the lion, beautiful Vau In her sensational dance, the two-headed calf and the dog and pony ahow. One of the most popular shows on the grounds was "Dreamland." a new moving picture theater, where pictures of the big Turnfest parade were seen for the first time. Among them were pictures of Governor Harmon and his staff as they passed the reviewing stand, the Ft.

Thomas soldiers, the First Regiment. O. K. and Smlttle's Band. Indies' Driving Contest.

Late in the afternoon the ladies' driving contest of the horse show was put In the ring. Cook's Hippodrome performances and the high-wire walker went on according to the program. Providing the weather Is good big crowds are expected to-day, which will close the fair. The day has been dedicated to the people of Cincinnati and will be called "Queen City Day." Over 400 babies have been entered In the baby show, which will take place In front of the grand stand fct 3 o'clock In the afternoon. Miss Ida Hr-debeck will be In charge.

There -will be Ave classes In the show, with five premiums In each class.

The grounds last night remained open until 10:30 o'clock, and nearly 15,000 persons remained to see the result. President M. T. Cooper stated that the Innovation was satisfactory in all respects to the Directors. It was so successful that It Is probable that the fair will be open on every night of the meeting next year.

The grounds were brilliantly Illuminated with electric lights, and large are lamps were placed around the race track abo.it lo feet apart, so that the racing could be plainly seen. Prof. Hardy, the high' wire performer, gave an exhibition under the artificial light before a packed grand stand. Cook's Roman standing and chariot races were also a feature of the evening's performance. Several classes In the horse show, which were not put In the ring during the afternoon on account of the rain, were decided at night.

The night show ended with an elaborate display of fireworks. The pant will not be kept open this evening, as it is thought this would create confusion among exhibitors who desire to remove their displays. Late yesterday afternoon a feature running race was put on the track, with the following result: Heats. Temple 1 1 Dynamite 6 3 Wmltar Rlttar 4 8, Good 4 Dr. Frank dr.

Golden Slipper 0 dr. Dr. Ready dr. Tims 0:544. Beats.

The evening's race was an open pace. In which there were three The beats were one half mile, two In three: Don Kansas 1 1 Black Sal i Old Hickory Time 1:1214. 1:12. While the fireworks were being set off a horse hitched to a surrey belonging to Superintendent John Schott, of the City In firmary, became frightened and broke away. The animal ran back of the grand stand towards the stables, creating much confusion among horses and vehicles-which were standing there.

The horse was finally caught and returned to the place where it had broken away. No damage was done. The awards were as follows: The Awards. CLASS 6 HORSES. ROADSTERS.
