STATE FAIR RACES Many Thousand Dollars Spent on the Mile Race Course at Indianapolis. THE PURSES AMOUNT TO $21,900 Program of Races for Each Day— Vaudeville, Band Concerts and Livestock Parades for Fair Visitors— Two Races Scheduled for Half-mile Track. With what is practically a new race course, and with uncommonly rich purses, the races at the Indiana State Fair, beginning September 7, give promise of being the most interesting held by the State Board of Agriculture in many years. The mile track has been resurfaced and improved until it is doubtful if any State fair in the country has its equal. Several thousand dollars have been spent by the board in this work, $6,000 going in this direction last spring. After the track was resoiled and had had the weather of winter In which to pack, a twelve ton steam roller was sent over it and made it as firm and smooth as a floor, yet to a horse's hoof it gives a response like rubber. The mile track was ditched along both edges and during the spring rains it was possible to dry It out and work over the surface after an hour or two of sun. The half-mile track, which is Inside the mile course, has also been ditched and otherwise improved, and two races, on the order of those sent over the oldtime county fair tracks, will start on it during the coming State Fair. Another improvement about the race course which the spectators will enjoy has been made by removing the high ground of the infield along the north side of the track. The track used to be so much lower than this elevation of earth that from the grandstand only the heads of the horses and drivers could be seen. But at the coming races a spectator may sit in the grandstand and see the feet of the horses all around the mile course. The sum of $21,900 is offered by the management for the State Fair races. The contests will begin on the first afternoon. Monday, of Fair week and the final races will be given on Friday afternoon. On Monday the program includes the 2:13 pace, purse $800; 2.14 trotting stake, $2,000; 2:07 pace, $800; 2.26 trot, over half-mile track, SBOO. On Tuesday, the events are: Three-year-old trotting stake. $800: 2:25 pacing stake, $2,000; 2:20 trot, $800; free-for-all trot, $1,500. The Wednesday events are: 2:30 trotting stake, $2,000; three-years-old pacing stake. $800; 2:17 trot, $800; 2:19 pace, SBOO. Thursday’s races: 2:11 trot, $800; 2:10 pacing stake, $2,000; 2:23 trot, $800; 2:22 pace, over half mile track, SBOO. On Friday the three races are: Free-for-all pace, $1,500; 2:08 trot $800: 2:16 pace, SBOO. Between the races each day interesting vaudeville performances will be given in front of the grandstand and on Wednesday and Thursday afternoon parades of the horses and cattle will be held. The Indianapolis Military Band will also give concerts during the races. The race course, with its grandstand and uncovered seats, now can make comfortable nearly twenty thousand spectators.

EASY TO CURE CATARRH. Just Breathe in Hyomei, the Dry Air That Kills th e Germs. You can do exactly what G. J. Sterers did by using Hyomei. Read this: “After having suffered from chronic catarrh for years, for which I tried various remedies without success, I became almost discouraged. After reading about Hyomei, I decided to make one mor e effort to rid myself of the dread disease, and to my great delight I found the use or two bottles of the Inhalent sufficient to produce a complete cure. I now take pleasure in recommending this remedy to a'l sufferers from catarrh.”—G. J. Strers, Crown City, Ohio. We don't simply say Hyomei will cure catarrh, but we say that Holthouse Drug Co. guarantees it to cure caterrh, or money back. He does more —he guarantees it to cure asthma, bronchitis, hay fever, ccughs and colds. A complete Hyomei outfit, including inhaler, costs only SI.OO, and extra bottles, if you afterward need one, will cost but 50 -cents. Hyomei is a pleasant dry air treatment. You just breathe it in, and as it passes over the inflamed membrane, it kills the germs of catarrh, and allays aH inflammation. —o— Democrat Want Ada. Pay.
