Feverish unrest was in the- air and early in the day some of the shows began packing up to leave for Salis bury and for Columbia, S. C; where fairs are due In a few days. r ; Everywhere throughout the grounds : from entremity to extcrmity . - of the ;. midway1 ; with Its babel -of unharmonious" sounct ' and horta tory mingled with derisive speech. one felt si that ; one 4 was witness ing the beginning .of the ' end.- At night, of course, with the brewing aside of business ares and '.with the relaxation of commercial responslbill tlesj the population of the city stream ed forth with something, of Its old time volume and street car after street car dunvped its human (eargro. alive, very much. alive, near the entrance to the big gates. ; The hundreds ana hundreds -of electric lights lagaln lit up the scene wlth a brilliant glare which marked it a place of festivity, befora entering which tha, spectator should , leave ; behind ,- worry.

" ,' C Not that tha spectators were to be transported backwards to soma dim, prehistoric period of the rusty past pot that they were to take part for a few hours in an existence to which the strenuous life was unknown and foreign. The very opposite waa true. Strenuosity. entered into every phase of It. Whether one vied iwlth his neighbor In hurling showers of con fetti or In defending one's ' person from the keen lashes of a whip ruthr lessly wielded, soared aloft In the Ferns wheel, strove ; desperately 'to beat the fakir at hist own game, with the odds 1,461.242.411 to 1 against him, or engaged in a bargain coun ter rush for a street car. when, one had had enough and , was . essaying to go home, there was nothing rural, nothing dull, nothing which savored of boredom and ennui in It all. But the show was not what it had been. THE BALLOON ASCENSIONS. vv Yesterday, as on every day that pre ceded it, the double balloon ascension was one of the leading features. For an hour before the rise, hundreds of people walked back and forth and watched the Inflations of the can vases, which grew - as the minutes pacsed, from uncouth, inert masses of cloth into moving, living, struggling giants, tugging madly and impatiently at the confining ropes for their , lib erty. As the all-important moment drew nearer, all eyes were centred on the figures of the two persons who were to perform the star feat, which was for them merely their dayrwork, with Its certain attendant pleasure. Worry, danger arid toll, In anything In the world in which woman chdosei to compete with man she is the cyno i sure -of all eyes, and to she was yes terday. Suddenly the word 'was given, the bonds were severed and the two monsters went soaring up, up, up. Into the unlimited, unfathomable regions ethereal. Both were carried by the breezes several hundred yards to the east. Professor &ola cut loose first; while Mile. Theresa's vessel carried her above and beyond. After mount ing for a few seconds her balloon ap peared to cease to mount?, but swayed' back and forth, while the little lady sat on her giddy perch all alone and looked downward where her compan ion aeronaut was still gliding smooth ly through, the 'air, and downward further still where was the gaslng mul titude, each with head and hack bent and optldal .organs strained. Then she, too, suddenly seemed to become homesick for Mother, Earth and cut away. Neither aeronaut was hurt and both landed not far from the same place, a" few hundred yards ' to the east of the grounds. RACING 'EVENTS OF THfi DAYi The grandstand was : about filled when the hour for racing arrived, and this event proved,; as attractive tfs on the' preceding days. There were only two races for a purse of $300 each. In the 2:25 .pace there were three en tries with ; the . ; following , results: '"Maaie C." got first money,' entered by X E.

Thare never was a larger number of attractions at pre vious fairs and from this source tne treasury was considerably re-enforced. Weather conditions, too, have been ideal and it appears that no better time could-have heen. selected or holding the show. . There was- no real appearance f rain during the entire four days a Everything has passed off in a manner that satisfies the people and the fair: management, and no body has any serious kick unless It be the fellow who played the fakir at a losing game, and he haa nobody to - blame hut .. hrmsetr. - Tnere nas been,, as usual, lot ' of criticism about some or tne mm way attractions, out ii Is renerallv conceded that the au thorities endeavored to handle these affairs , In a proper way. ; They ; are delicate things to fool with m a com munity like this, but the officials -claim that thev were riven roper cur Ding.

Serersvillo Street Cnr Runs Into Ijoaded Lumber Wagon and Small While Boy Is Painfully HurtHow It All Happened. A Seversvllle street car collided iwlth a loaded lumber wagon near Fite's atore yesterday afternoon about 5 . o'clock. Harry Lowder, the small son of Mr. D. S. . Lowder, an em ploye of the Southern, was thrown from his . seat in the wagon to the ground and badly bruised. A gash was cut . In Ms tight leg and another on the, rtebt side of his head. , His right ear was also torn. The colored driver, who was directing the two mules. , was struck by a piece of lumber and knocked unconscious for 4,-few moments, Immediately after the collision the white boy was brought into the city and carried to the Presbyterian Hospital, where his wounds ' were attended to. While painful, they are not serious, and he ivTlll be able to be out In a few days. The accident was probably due to the carelessness of the colored driver, who drove across the track without looking back to see If a car was ap proaching Both were going m the same direction and, owing to tho weight of the load,-the driver could not get1 his wagon out of the -way. The collision was: not a heavy one, the wagon only being tilted over. The' shock, however, was sufficient to throw both occupants out on the ground. '" T. W. C. A: NOTES.
