PLENTY OF NOFSE.
(After leaving the main building one
sees so much-and hears so much that
ne hardly knows where to go. On
every side people are crying the won
ders and mysteries of their individual
attractions; venders with all kinds of
wares meet you on every side, and the
whole makes a timid penson 'think that
Babel has broke loose. But after
awhile you beoome partially accus
tomed to the noise and confusion, and
the lover of fine stock, poultry and pet
stock will naturally wander over 'io
■the quarters provided for these exhib
its. Here two hours can be spent, and
even then aBl will not be seen. In fact,
the person who wants 'to etopi -and criti
cise each pig, cow, goat, chicken, duck,
goose, dog, pony, animal or fowl of
any kind would do well to set a day
apart for this purpose alone as they
cannot nil be seen Id less time. This
department is particularly Attractive
and complete and everything Id the
animal or fowl kihgdom Is to be found
•there In clean, comfortable quarters.
Below the cattle and poultry ex
hibits many people find mijph interest
in watching the extensive preparations
being made for the performances of
the Last Days of Pompeii. *
Coming back from the Last Days of
Pomepli, and after working your jray
through a perfect labyrinth of lunch
stands, fakirs and sundry other side
Issues, you come ito fire headquarters,
which is a show to many people who
have never seen 'the headquarters of a
paid fire department.
THE RACE HORSES.
In the rear of the engine house Is
racing bam No. 2 and here will be
found albout 100 fleet-footed beauties of
the 'turf, cared for as tenderly as a
mother cares for her children. A kittle
further on racing bam No. 1 Is
reached and here the same order of
things pevall as at No. 2.
SOME SPECIAL FEATURES.
Near the end of the Midway is lo-
cnlted the spiral railway of Achille
FhlHon, whose wonderful feats yester
day called forth the applause of the
many people who witnessed it. This
performance -consists of FhlHon rolling
a huge ball up and down the railway
while standing erect upon it. T.he feet
alone are vised in manipulating the
ball, but the difficult task must be seen
to be appreciated. On ’the Whole, it

FAIR NOTES.
The popular vordlct of the people who
saw the great procession yc«terday was
that if ’the magnificent Kindau drawn
by the four handsome grays belonging
to Mr. T. R. Hudson did occupy second
pkaoe in ithe procession, It led every
thing in the procession in point of
beauty, style and cost. In fact. It was
the flnert -turnout ever seen *n Macon,
and Misiow .Shinholser. Nelson, Cherry
umd R**es<». the four young ladies who
occupied.the .turnout, gave It additional
beamy.
The magnificent work of the sprinkling
runs -a.* j highly n;-predated bjr the
thousands of people who went to the fair
yesterday. It should be kept up.

necessary to wait more than a few
minutes for a car.
There Is one thing that gives the visitor
to the fair who has attended other state

same old pumpkins thut have been In the
habit of coming here every year are con
spicuous by their absence.

OPERATOR TO BLAME.
Ttvo Trains Wrecked In a Terrible
Head-End Collision.
Houston, Tex., Oct. 23,--A tcrrlblo
bead-end uoliteiou occurred nt 12:40
this tuoruiug on the Southern Pacific,
near Walker station, twenty-three
nr.les west or here. The west-bound
passenger left Houston thirty minutes
late and was running very fust to muko
up time. The telegraph operator at
Wulkor had received a uisputch order
ing the passenger to meet the east-
boutlrt stock train there. When the
passenger train pulled into Walker ho
failed to display the regular red signal
aud, after changing the mail, went,
back to hls olllce, where lie suddenly
remembered hls orders. In the mean
time the passenger train, ln churgo of
Conductor Reed, had pulled out at u
high rate of speed. Atkinson, the op
erator, realizing Ills awtul blunder,
telographed to way stations, hut all
the lilliee, were dosed except Rosen
berg. At that point the extra stock
train hnd received orders to tako tho
siding nt Walker for tho passenger.
Knowing tho passenger wits Jnte,
Conductor Hess and Brakcman Sands-
bury mounted the engine, expecting to
reach tho Wulkor siding lu time und
lot Die passenger fly past.. Thu extra
stock tralh was making forty-fivo
miles an hour, wheu the engineer saw
a light a few yards ahead through tho
dense fog. IIo commanded Ills fireman
to Jump, reversed hls engine and
Jumped Himself. Then came the
frlgutful crush, the two engines being
badly musltcd up. Conductor Marlon
Hess nnd Brakcman Bruco Sundsbttry
of tho freight Jumped, hut wore caught
under tho englno nnd crushed to death.
Conner, engineer, and C. A. lion-
sticker, fireman ou the freight, both
jumped nnd each bad hls right leg
broken, besides recelvlug other Inju
ries. Fireman Dan Gibson of the pas
senger was badly hurt on the log. J.
V. Irvin, express agent, wnB injured
on tlio head and Mike Garvey, brake-
man, badly bruised. Tho most mirac
ulous escape was that of E. P. Ran
dolph, mall agent. The mall car wus
telescoped, and demolished. Randolph
wus thrown through hls car into tho
express car and only slightly braised.
Tlio escape of Express Agent Irvin
was almost ns miraculous, as Ills car
was also wrecked. Five enrs of cattle
and horses were mushed to pieces, all
Utc live stock being killed. rSoruu of
the freight bars took flro and wero
burned up. No damage was dona to
tho passenger.
The track was not cleared until to
night.
EDWARD BDAKE IX ATLANTA.
Atlanta, Oct. 23.—Hon. Edward Blake,
Irish member of parliament, ruldrs.sed a
larse and representative audience In this
city nt DeGlve’s Opera Housa tonight.
Governor Northen and Mayor Goodwin
©erupted scat, on the platform. In addi
tion to prominent citizens representing
evwy betneas, nationality and occupa
tion. Ills speech, which tasted for nearly
two hours, was clear, eloquent and a mas
terly exposition of the Irish cause. He
was frejueritly applauded and ttie synepl-
thy of the audience was manifest from
the beginning. He referred to the charac
teristic. of the Southern people and drew
a comparison between them and the peo
ple in whose behalf hls zeal was enlisted.
After stinking of tire varied and won
derful resources of tho South, he gave
it ns hls opinion that the people of this
lection hod rather surrender every bit
of their material -wealth than yield the
blersod right of setf-government. He dis
cussed the hauTdjrhtpn and sufferings of
the Irish people and their various efforts
to secure their Independence, The popu
lation of the country, he said, had de>
creased fid per cent, during the lost fifty
years. He characterized the union be
tween Ireland and England a. existing
without moral validity or Justification.
For eighty years oppression and coercion
had ground the Irish people to the earth
and compelled them to support an alien
church. The origin of the Irish party
under Parnell was discussed and Its
growth outline,!. He referred to the bill
Introduced by Gladstone in parliament
and the subsequent defeat and the over
throw of tho Liberal government. Six
yearn of coercion followed until the Ub-
v.ere s^aln eie <:■■* dul In lot and the
cause of Ireland triumphed In the house
of commons. Tho bill was Introduced ond
passed by a Urge vote of that body, but
the house of lords defeated It.
The speech created a profound impres
sion. Tnl* Is the first speech of the dis
tinguished champion of Ireland's cause
In the South.
