HAYWOOD COUNTY FAIR
WILL CLOSE TONIGHT
Has Been Best In - History of the
Count)' Races Scheduled For To
day of Particular Interest.
Increasing steadily In attendance
and enthusiasm since Tuesday, the
opening day, the Haywood county
fair may be said to have reached the
climax yesterday, the third day, ac
cording to visitors returning from the
fair. The exhibits were still at their
best, and the races, which, have
proved the one big feature of the fair,
were more popular than ever
Today winds, up the fair, the. best
In the history "of " Haywood tounty.
Fair promoters for years to oome will
have a standard that will be hard to
equal, as the result of the fair this
year, which has been the best In the
annals of the county. Never before
has Haywood county had so many
and such varied exhibits as were on
display at the fair this year, and the
quality has been commensurate with
the quantity.
City and fair officials unite In de
claring It the best fair ever held at
Waynesvllle. and many who have
visited It declare that the Western
North Carolina fair will have to
hurry to produce better exhlblta and
attractions. The midway has been
enjoyed, the free attractions have
been shown on scheduled time, and
everybody visiting the fair has left
with the feeling of havlne secured
100 cents in value for every dollar
expended.
Today's races promise to be the
orai ana most exciting yet run. For
me f.iz class, either trot or pace, a
purse of I00 Is offered, and this is
expected to bring forth the best In
that class in this part of the country.
The last race on the program, the
free-for-all trot or pace, however, is
the great racing event of the day. In
this race, no entry is barred, and a
purse of $800 has been hung up for
the winner.
Following today's attractions at the
fair grounds, and the various shows
tonight, the 1914 Haywood county fair
will pass into history, and the exhi
bitors will begin packing their ex
hibits, many of which are to he
shown at the Western North Carolina
tair at Kiverside park next week.
Everybody is satisfied, the fair offic
ials are delighted with the succeiu lit
the fair and the concessions have all
made money.
UNCLE SAM WILL NOT
EXHIBIT AT BIG FAIR
When the Western North Carolina
fair opens next Tuesday, Uncle Bam s
parcel post exhibit, which Postmaster
Gudger had planned to display, will
not be In evidence. Owing to the
great demand for the various vessels
used in transporting foodstuffs
through the malls. It was Impossible to
get camples for exhibition purposes
and the proposed exhibit had to bs
abandoned. Postmasters throughout
the country had planned to have these
exhibits at the various fairs, demon'
st rating how foodstuffs could be
parked in containers for transporta
tion through the mails. The exhibits
were held in some places, but Post-
msster Gudger was too late in apply
ing for containers.
POLITICAL ORATORY.
WASHINGTON, Oct. S Political
oratory was given the right of way In
the senate today, republicans and
democrats taking the opportunity to
get campaign material into the rec
ord pending opening tomorrow ot the
debate on the war revenue bill.
Senator Townsend, for the repub
licans, criticised the activities of the
administration and said that through
mismanagement and extravagance the
democrats had been forced Into levy
ing the proposed war tax. He de
clared President Wilson had "bossed"
congress more than any previous
president.
For the democrat. Senator Ashurst
of Arizona, "pointed with orlde" to
the achievements of the present con
gress, and presented a detailed Hst of
the accomplishment of the admlnls-
t.-ation. asserting that "President Wll-
son had placed the government back
in ine nanus or me people.

turn to take the offensive. But oa
the heights of the Meuse, between
the fortress of Verdun and St. UihlaL
wara the , Germans crossed the
Me use two week ago. the contest
still goes on. The German have
withdrawn to the north of HattoB
chatel. They still, however, hold SL
Mihiel aad some positions north of
that town an the right hank of the
river. ; v . ,. -. .
The .conjecture, therefore, that the
French had driven them back across
th river, soon after they made their
advance, and captured, besides the
titwn ttaatf, the forts of Komatn
and Parochea. provws incorrect.
' German Successful.
In' the Woevre district, the Ger
mans, with success, have delivered
violent attacks against the French,
who doubtless were trying to get be
hind, the German force on the Mouse
at St. MlhleL With the Germans to
the aorth withdrawing and the re
pulse ,ot their attack west ot Apra
mont the Germans at St. Mihiel arc
considered to be ta rather a danger
ous position.
As an offset to this favorable
French' statement, the German ac
count, issued last night, says the
French attacks In the Argonne and
to' the northeast of Verdun were re
pulsed While no decision has 'been
reached In the fighting on the Ger
man right wing.
This latter statement remains, true
today, far,, although the French
clalrn to have met with success, there
la nothing to Indicate any definite re
sult has been attained and there
probably will be much more fighting
and a further extension of the wings,
posstbly in the direction of Antwerp,
before either aide is compelled to
give way.
In Gallcta.
The other Atg battle line between
the combined Austro-German armies
and the legion of Russia extends
from the Gallelan frontier, near Tar
now, north to the ' east Prussian
border. Another Russian force Is
besieging Praemysl In Gallola, and
still another la Invading Hungary.
On the East Prussian frontier the
fighting appears to have coma to a
standstill. The Russians, having driv
en the Germans back after tharr' ad
vance to the Nlemen Mvar, found on
getting to the German border that re
inforcements had been brought front
Koenlgsberg, and their further pro
gress was arrested. The Germans, In
fact, claim to have defeated the Rus
sians near RuWalkl and to have taken
2,700 prisoners and nin machine
guns. ,
Fighting on a larger scate soon will
be resumed, and then It Will be decid
ed whether the Germans are to re
Invade Russia In this region or the
Russians are to'overrun' Prussia.
FRENCH VERStON.
PARIS, Oct. S. (3:15 p. m.) The
following official announcement was
made in Paris this afternoon:
"First: On our left wing In the re
gion of the department of Nord, the
enemy has made progress at no point.

WHIMS OF BCRUIAKA.
Audaclou depredation of bur

them after befng. robbed. On resi
dence recently looted . revealed a de

ture, glassware and picture by. th
burglars.
How far Imprudence will go was
exempllfed In th recent robbery of
the house of Albert Samstag at
White Plains. A note left after a
wholesale destruction of brlc-a-hrao,
clothing and furniture said that th
same gang had robbed a group ot New
York residence a week or so before.
For two or thro days the burglar
had feaated through the house, 1 '
Then there was the case of - the
West Philadelphia merchant. Hi
family went to Atlantic City at th
beginning of the summer, with th
exception of hi only son, a young col
lege ehap home on vacation. The
merchant waa ah early riser and al
ways took hla breakfast ' downtown
when th family,!; wny. The son
alwayjfljrept UuTqH,
Onedajrth on started for a um
mer camp d0n th Delaware, leaving
his father a not on the dining room
table. That afternoon burglars : en
tered the house and found the note.
They knew the father's habits, and
proceeded to go through the house
systematically, taking things from the
rooms of the women of the family
first, so that the mgrchant would not
notice anything wrong from a casual
obseratlon.
Their leokout spied him coming
home at 10 p. m. They might have
escaped, but they ware too audacious.
They retired to th women rooms
until the old man went to sleep. Then
thy went on with their looting, mak
ing everal trips to the cellar fot
wine. Once during.' th early morn
ing one of them stumbled. The old
merchant awoke and supposed It was
his son.
"That you. Fred?" he called.
"Ye-e-e-s," yawned a voice back,
and the merchant turned over and
went to sleep again;
The burglars winnowed out every
thing they wanted and Were all asleep
In the women's roams when the old
man went downtown at 7 a. m. Then
they caroused all that day, destroyed
things, broke dottles 6f wine the
could, not consume and left before the
merchant's return in the evening.
