(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 can but he summed up In the remark of a negro, who while witnessing the performance yesterday said: oat white man sho Is garablln wld his Immediately after Phlllon’s perform ance Professor Grenada gave one of the -moslt wonderful tight wire per formances ever aeen „ln this This aerial artist walks the tight wire suspended from the top of the main budding to a Cargo pine kreo of equal height, 1.000 feet distant.

The fair Is a success beyond all doubt. 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.

There Is general regret that there Is to be no racing this week, but many people enjoy seeing the horses working on tne track, which Is In prime conitlon. The street car service to and from the park is almost perfect, and it Is never 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 falra much pleasure, and that Is that the same old pumpkins thut have been In the habit of coming here every year are con spicuous by their absence. The park was never more beautiful than at present, and most visitors find It one of the most httracUve features of the fair.

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. TH1 L WJSS£ Indies' and Misses’ Capes, Coats nnd Jackets.

After breakfast with Mr. Adle the party set out to find tho place where Morgautleld nnd Searcy Had hidden, tho money and the express poucli, con taining the bonds and drafts. Up through the Stafford roads they went by Stafford's store, on to Brlstows- burg nnd to Calverton, Searcy trying to remember the raid ho nnd Ml “pal” travelled and tho place he left tho road. From Calverton the party drovo to CatVott's and there back on. title road to Stafford's store. About three miles from Catlett’s Searcy Identified tho pkteo where they left tho raid.
