The great Hagerstown fair, In Its fifty fifth year, opened yesterday and almost 20,000 people flocked to the grounds to see one of the greatest exhibitions of livestock, poultry, farm products, handiwork and farm implements ever shown in this section of the United States. The display far exceeds the expectations of the fair promoters, both in the quality and the quantity of the exhibits. The fair association boasts of the finest poultry house in the world. The building has been erected since last year, it is large, well lighted and ven tilated and gives the exhibitor ample opportunity to display his fowls. Most of the exhibits are prize winning birds and of these there are between six and seven thousand.

The exhibits come from all parts of the eastern United States.the Mississippi valley and points In Canada. Among the better known fanciers and the number of entries they have are the following: Arm burst of Armburst, 137 entries; Stulan Farms, of Hornell, N. 140 entries; George Burn, Ontario, 140 entries; Samuel Mehring, 100 en tries; W. A. Smith, Witman Point, N.

600 entries; J. C. Kriner, Stet tlers, 208 entries; A. J. Braun, Syracuse, N.

147 entries, and many others. The exhibits include Rocks of all descriptions, Polish, Hamburgs, Wyandottes, games, rare black and white whiskered bantams, Slaba stat oole geese, ornamental water fowls In fact, any kind that a man well versed in poultry could name. Some of the fowls are worth upwards of 100 each. Great Array of Kxhiblts In the main building are the exhibits of fancy work, canned goods and other products of the home. The handiwork is probably the best ever seen at a Hagerstown fair, and altogether the exhibits represent centuries of work.

One of the iinest pieces is a quilt into which the Lord's Prayer has been crocheted. The letters are perfect. In this building, too, are the exhibits of many of the merchants of Hagerstown. Pianos seem to have the lead and one of the dealers rolled a new one into the crowd when he presented a piano with a bell and drum attach ment which requires no person to operate. The piano itself is a self player, with the bells and drums attached.

On the second floor of the building are the exhibits of drawings in ink and crayon, hand paintings, pyrography and other works of art. The floral and agricultural halls are laden with the good things of the country. In the former buildings the display of apples predominates. In the agricultural building are mammoth stalks of grains from the fields of the Cumberland valley and these show to the visitor just what kind of a country leads into Hagerstown. Another interesting exhibit Is that of the Prevention and Cure of Tuberculosis.

The exhibit Includes pictures, drawings and charts which show how the people affected by the disease are be ing cared for. From the different exhibition build ings the visitors take trips thruogh the Midway. Here are all the fakirs imaginable. Dozens of itinerant showmen are gathered here also. The fair, with its many attractions, the greatest in the history of fairs at Hagerstown, is only marred by one thing the presence of intoxicating liquor on the grounds.

Races a Big Feature One of the big attractions Is the racing. In all there are more than. 200 horses. The racing season was opened yesterday. The track has lately been improved at an expenditure of $6,000 and is now one of the fastest in the country.

The results of the races yesterday are as follows: 2.20 pace, purse $400, best 3 in 6. Violet, rn. by Blue Point, J. C. Pender, Johnstown (Pender) 1 1 1 Dewey Bell, b.

ES ON HIE STAGE Spencer Charters Appearing in Get "Rich Quick WaUingford" HARRY DARE COMING Two Good Vaudeville Bills; "Time, Place and Girl" at Majestic Majestic To night "Tho Time, the Place and the Girl." Monday Night.

October 17 The Shu berts present "The Lottery Man." Tuesday Night, October 18 Free Christian Science lecture. Wednesday and Thursday and Thursday Matinee, October 19 20 "St. Elmo." The Orphcum Keith vaudeville every afternoon and evening. The Casino Vaudeville every afternoon and at 7 and 9 each evening. Spencer Charters, a Harrlsbura; actor who is playing a heavy role in "Get Rich Quick WaUingford" at the Gayety Theater, New York, has been made stage manager there at an Increased salary.

The WaUingford production has made such a hit in New York that It will in all probability continue there the remainder of tho seaf Another Harrisburg boy who Is making good this season is Amos Shultz, a blackface camedian playing under the stage name of Harry Dare. He has just been booked for the entire Keith circuit and will be In Har rirburg ere long, unless there is an unexpected change of bookings. At the Orphcum "The Grafter." a political satire that is being so successfully presented by Ernest Carr Co. at the Orpheum this week, Is also receiving much comment about town. As the grafter Ernest Carr is so much at ease in the playlet that it is hard to believe that he is really only acting.

But the description of this novel sketch does not do in the telling. It's the dialogue that makes the hit. "The Grafter" ia a vaudeville act that belongs in the headline class and is one of the extra special features of the biggest laughing bill the Orpheum has had in weeks. Tlie Casino The Casino's new plan of giving continuous vaudeville in the evening between 7 and 1 1 o'clock is growing in popularity, as last night many were present when the opening show began. The daily matinees at 2.15 o'clock also are well attended.

Jeff Fitz, the boxing kangaroo, is the hit of the bill, being one of the most interesting animal acts seen here in a long tlm. Another very interesting turn is that of the Two Stanleys in shadowgraph'. The audience sees at first only a white can vas, brightly illuminated from the rear, upon the screen the Stanleys throw motion silhouettes, humorous, pretty and thrilling. One of the best shows a tug boat drawing a three masted vessel. The tow line Is cast off and the smoking tug goes away.

Then the many sails of the are hoisted one by one, and she gradually gathers headway and sails away. Another scene shows a battle between two war ships, with the flashing and roar of cannon, ending with the sinking of one of the ships. "The Time, the Place and the Girl "The Time, the Place and the Girl." which returns to the Majestic to night, is a musical comedy of heart interest with a plot, of strong dramatic scenes yet full of fun, laugh provoking dialogue and humorous complications, all set to music, and with its acting possibilities enhanced by half a dozen unique but thoroughly life like char acterizations. For instance, there is the philosophical young "sport" with a mine of wisdom expressed in clean and down to date slang; the trained nurse, worldly wise; the proud and petulant daughter of a rich farmer who is tamed by the "sport;" the Italian laborer, who provides the sentiment; the coal heaver, who is "just going to be married," and the man about town, whose wild oats are harvested as gamely as they are sown. With these types "The Time, the Place and the Girl" keeps safely out of the conventional rut.

It Is distinguished by comedy rather than clowning, though there is a bit or two of burlesque interpolated to magnify the contrasts. The critics pronounce the company a good one. "The Lottery Man" "The Lottery Man," which comes to the Majestic next Monday evening, was among the first of the New York successes of the past season. The Shuberts, although they manage fourteen theaters in New York, were un able to place the comedy in one of their own houses, so an arrangement was made with the management of the Bijou Theater whereby "The Lottery Man" was shown there. Failure after failure had been seen at the Bijou, when suddenly attention was attracted to the new arrival.

The "Lottery Man" soon became the town talk. Reviewers spoke of the play as having lifted the "hoodoo" which had hung over the Bijou for so long a time. In fact, the entire engagement was started more or less cautiously, gradually broadening into one of the most successful runs of the season. The sale of seats opens Friday morning at 9 o'clock.
