one.
Governor-elect Joseph . M. Brown ar

that tho occasion would live long Second
In his memory. It waa hla desire to “

Brown Identified the chair as

THE BALLOON ASCENSION.
Decidedly the feature of the after
noon woe the attempted balloon as
cension by Mr. Ben L. Jones, presi
dent of the fair association. It had
been announced well In advance that
Mr. Jones would yesterday make an
ascension nnd a parachute Jump, and
It wak sufficient to attract many hun
dreds of people to the ground*. When
the hour arrived for the event thefence

Ho waa greatly disappointed at not

It seems that several day* ago some
members of the fair association were
requested by Mr. Jones' frlendsr and
relatives not to allpw him to go up in
the balloon. At flrst they endeavored
to dissuade him from the notion, but
finding him determined they resolved
to put another scheme Into effect. So
It wae arranged to let him go to the
balloon in anticipation of making an

SWEET POTATO EXHIBIT.
The Worth county exhibit. In charge
of Mr*. W. A. Monk, furnishes an
interesting exhibit of sweet potatoes,
five varieties being shown. One most
cultivated in Worth county—and It is
said that the land In that section Is
especially adapted to the raising of
potatoes—Is called the Jerusalem yam.
Two are plenty big enough to supply
a whole family at a meal. They bake
easily and'are very sweet.
The potato chiefly raised In Worth
county, and the one of all In the ex
hibit which will attract tho. most at
tention, goes by the name of "nig
ger-killer." It Is said that country ne
groes like them so well that they eat
them without regal’d to gastronomic
or digestive’ consequences. This pota
to Is almost aa large as the yam, but
ha* a peculiar blood-red peeling. When
peeled, however, the potato Is curiously
white and somewhat starchy. It makes
excellent pies and puddings and Is
said to excel all other potatoes for fry
ing purposes. It’le also used for the
making of starch.
The Bohemia or West Indian yam
and the “bunch" potatoes are also on
display
