Fair, to be held under the joint
auspices of the Georgia State Ag

nah Fair Association, will open
its gates to the public on Nov. 6,
are rapidly assuming the shape
they will present when the Fair is
in full operation.
Of course, there is lacking the

accomplish.
The-race track itself is just be
ing surfaced with clay. It is a
the thousands and ten thousands full mile in length and so con-
of people who .will throng the Fair structed that from the grand
Grounds while the Fair is in pro
gress, but the buildings, the grand
stand that overlooks the race track
and the track,;in itself one of the
finest in the South, show alreadly
what they will be like.
All of the buildings are nearing
completion. The main exhibits
will be housed in three principal
structures, which,with their thou
sands of feet of floor space, afford
ample roohi. Under tjae grand
stand, built to accommodate com
fortably 3,000 persons, there will
be restaurants and toilet rooms
and other public places designed
for the convenience of the visi
tors. t
Sixty thousands dollars will be
expended by the people of Savan
nah in making the Fair a success
and liberal premiums, aggregating
$15,000, have been offered for all
displays, whether by counties or
by individuals. Premium lists,
tel 1 ing the, full story of the prizes
that will He awarded, may be ob
tained gratisHy applying to the
secretary of the Fair Association,
at Savannah.
The following general informa
tion on the subject of premiums,
their arrangement and award, will
be of interest to prospective ex
hibitors and visitors to the Fair:
The premium list is divided in
to departments as follows:
A, agriculture; B, cattle, sheep
and hogs; C, dairy and apiary; D,
horse show; E, manufactures and
textiles; F, machinery; G, agri
cultural and dairy implements;
H, merchant’s display; I, educa
tion ; J, forestry, mines and min
erals; K, horticulture; L, floricul
ture; M, poultry and pet stock;
N, fine arts, professional and am
ateur; P, negroes’ work.
Plans of the grounds and va
rious buildings will be ready for
inspection on and after Sept. 1st, i
at the secretary’s office, Savannah,
where all space required for ex
hibits will be allotted. Those re
quiring much space should file
their application as early as possi
ble.
No one will be allowed to act as
judge in a deprrtment or ring in
which he exhibits.
No premium shall be awarded
when the, exhibit is unworthy,
though there be no competion.
_ Judges are instructed that if
they shall have good reason to be
lieve that any exhibitor, by false
entry or otherwise, attempts to
deceive the judges or the, public,
and obtain a premium by misrep
resentation, they shall report the
facts to the superintendent of the
department, who shall report the
matter at once to the joint. Exec
utive Committee for action.
The decisions of awarding judges
shall be final and no appeal shall
be considered except in case of
protest.
The premiums are designated
by ribbons: blue meaning first,
red, second, and white third pre
mium. These ribbons will be at
tached only by the superintend
ent of each departmtnt, or his as
sistant, after the judges or com
mittees have signed their reports
and the same have been approved
by the superintendent over his
signature. .
All cash premiums awarded Up
to Wednesday, Nov. 13th, ’will be
paid at the grounds by the secre
tary, on Saturday, Nov. 16th.
stjand every spectator can obtain
a - perfect view of its every part.
The race track is to be a perman
ency here and neither pains nor
expense ha3 been spared to make
it the best of its kind. It is go
ing to be a fast track, and the
knowing ones- say that records
will be destroyed on it before the
racing season at the Fair reaches
its conclusion.
The tournament for teams from
troops of cavalry will be one . of
the Fair’s most interesting and
exciting features. Col. P. W.
Meldnm of the First Regiment of
Cavalry is taking a deep interest
in the project and hopes to bring
his entire regiment to Savannah
during the time the Fair is in pro
gress. There will be competing
teams from half of the twelve
troops of the regiment certainly ,
and possibly a greater number
will try for the prizes that have
been offered. These are sufficient
ly large to tempt the troopers and
to incite their best efforts.
Individuals and counties have
announced their intentions of ex
hibiting, at the Fair and many
have already made application for
space to the secretary, Mr. James
C. Shaw.
The Bostock Company will fur
nish the shows for the midway.
These are the best in the cquntry,
and this feature of the Fair will
be conducted on a high plane.
The first formal entry of exhib
its for the Fair has been made..
Miss M. L. Pillon of St. Augus
tine, Fla., has the honor to be
first. She has filled out an entry
blank in a style that shows that
this will not be the first time she
has tried for prizes in an art de
partment. It is probable that but
a few days will elapse before these
entries will be received in num
bers. The preminm lists are be
ing c'rculated where they will
tract those ambitious to win
prizes offered.
Savannah has a reputation
hospitality and the entertainment
of the stranger within its gates
that is cecond to that of no oth
er city in the country, and it
promises those who attend the
Fair the times of their lives. In
formation bureaus will be estab
lished and board may be obtained
at small expense. Altogether, the
Fair promises to be the best of
its kind the South has seen.
The matter of returning home,too,must
be-considered. as after you have done the
Exposition, Buffalo, Niagara Falls and
vicinity, you’ll be tired and wish to go
quickly and comfortably.

To put the brake on the wagon
going down the hill is a help to
the horse, when the wagon is heav
ily loaded. But what driver
would think of applying the brake
to a loaded wagon going uphill?
If he did his sensible horses would
probably balk. Many a man is
in the condition of pulling a load
up hill with the brake set against
him. When his stomach is out
of order, and the allied organs of
digestion and nutrition impaired
in their functions, a friction is
set lip which has to be overcome
in additton to the performance of
daily duties. A foul stomach
makes a foggy brain, and the man
with a disordered stomach has of
ten to grope his way through the
day’s business like a man in a fog.
He forgets appointments. Prob
lems seem presented to his mind
“wrong end to.” This conditson
is entirely remedied by the use of
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Dis
covery. It puts the stomach and
digestive and nutritive system
into a condition of perfect health,
and gives a clear brain, a steady
hand .and a light step for the day’s
duties. When constipation clogs
the channels of the body,. Dr.
Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets will work
an ‘ effectual cure of that disas
trous disease.
