With the Southeastern Fair but two
weeks off, the free attractions have
Dbeen booked, entries in the various
departments are coming in, and thei
work on the grounds is being com- |
pleted. The poultry and live sv.ock%
exhibits will begin arriving next
week. |
A list of free attractions ranklng(
among the best on the road is an-.
nounced by R. M. Striplin, secreiary.
They are expected to be one of the
princg®®] drawing cards of the fair.
Ir making the selections, the manage
ment has endeavored to get those
which would appeal to every class of
patronage.
The fireworks display by the New
ton Fireworks Company, of Chicago,
will be supplemented with six vaude
viile and hippodrome acts. Two per
formances will be given daily, one in
the afternoon, between the Grand Cir
cuit racing events, and the other at
night, during the intermissions of the
soclety horse show. With this pro
gram there will not be a dull mo
ment.
Ed R. Hutchison, booked as “Amer
ica’s most successful aeronaut,” i{s the
most thrilling act. Hutchison was en
gaged after the fair management had
considered many birdmen now per
forming with aeroplanes at the great
fairs. He will do a six-parachute
drop from one balloon.
Diving Nymphs.
Lottie Mayer, booked as the fore
most feminine diver, will be seen in
a 4 series of exhibitions on the lake.
She carries a company of five nymphs
who assist her in the exhibition and
present many fancy dives and strokes,
This act is usually put on in a tank,
but the lake at the Southeastern Fair
grounds offers even better facilities
for presenting it.
The Duttons, presenting a “society
equestrian” act, are highly recom
mended as a high-class attraction.
Their equipment consists of a pair
of handsome white horses, with white
trappings and a white vehicle. A
trick dog also performs with the Dut
tons in their exhibition of daring rid
ing and drivine.
The Marco Twins, comedy acrobats,
will furnish the fun for the fair.
Their clown act will be presented on
the hippodrome platform in front of
the grand stand. The Flving Lavans
have been hooked for dally exhibi
tions on rings and bars. Nettie Car
rol and a troupe of novelty wire walk
ers will offer a variety of exhibitions.

pleted; the Model Cottage, a feature
of the woman’'s department. will be
ready next week, and exhibits are
being installed in the Liheral Arts
and Agricultural Buildings. These
buildings have been decorated.
The number of entries in the ma
chinery department indicate this wi]l
be a larger exhibit than had heen ex
pected. Practically every kind of
farm and dairy implement and devic
will be shown by the manufacturers
and agents. The entries in the cat
tle, poultry, live stock and agricultu
ral departments are coming in from

a horse journal with a front-page pic
ture of the great descendant of Mam
brino Chief. It showed the champion
with his owner, Powhatan Wool
dridge, in the saddle. Mr. Wooldridge
owns the Powhatan Farms in Pewee

one since the first year the Audito
rium was built, will be given every
night from October 16 to 21 on the
race track in front of the grandstand

was purposely widened here to permit
those sweeping turns of the saddle
horses which bring cheers from the
onlookers. Big floodlights will illumi
nate the track.

fications and other detalls. It is ex
