The events the three days are being built ground the "Made in Richmond" exhibit, the Richmond Concert band and the aeroplane flights. In addition there will be horse shows, exhibits of products raised on farms of Wayne county, high class '.en ted shows and other minor attractions. Th city will be thrown open to the .housandB of visitors and former resilents who an- expected to pour in j'rom all directions. The Festival committees are doing all in their power to rnnk: the- event worth while for visitors and to show them an enjoyable time. Thousands of yards of bunting, and hundreds of flags will decorate the business houses and homes of the city. Unusually attractive window displays will be set up by the merchants. Main street will become a long line of gay colors, and artistic effects. On North A street beginning at Seventh, a large tent five blocks in length will house a hundred exhibits of products made in the city. Pianos, tools, automobiles, fanning implements, and many other products will be displayed. At the west end of the "Made in Richmond" exhibit will be the tents of the McGrail Amusement company, while at the other end will be the horse tent. A tour of the city in machines provided by members of the Commercial club will open the Festival, October, 1. This is for the former citizens
that they may get an idea of the growth that the city has made in the last few years. The Richhmond concert band, an organization of fifty musicians, that has been preparing for the festival for several, months will give two or three concerts, i It is also probable that the band will be divided, with music in the "Made in Richmond" tent practically all the time by one of the divisions.
The Industrial committee is plan- j
ning an industrial parade in addition to the "Made in Richmond" exhibit, in which they hope to interest not only the manufacturers of the city, but the various schools and business houses. This parade is scheduled for the second day. The big feature of this day will be the aeroplane flight by Oscar Brinley in a Wright machine. On the third day Brinley will give more flying exhibitions, starting from Athletic Park, and flying over the city. For the same day a parade of decorated automobiles is being ar ranged. The prizes in the horse show will be given, and the winners, ridden and driven through the streets. Outside Of this general outline, there are many part of the festival for which the exact time has not been set. If the present plans are carrie out, more than one thousand schoolchildren will participate In a performance which

Team Made Wild Dash Main Street Frightened by Car.
A valuable team of horses hitched to
! a heavy moving van belonging to John IShurley, became frightened at an inter- ; urban yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock, i The team was stopped bv a hov. whose
name was not learned. The horses were standing at Thirteenth and Main streets and were fastened to a ten pound weight. When the tar passed thern, one plunged forward, pulling the other animal with him. The weight was torn loose and the horses dashed down the street. The boy jumped in the rear of the van when he saw the horses were running away, but a door prevented him from getting to the seat of the wagon. He then jumped from the rear and ran from Thirteenth street to Tenth street before he caught hold of the reins. The heavy animals were unable to stop at once and dragged the boy for half a square when he brought them to a standstill just as they were about to collide with an automobile. Shurley is looking for the lad and wishes to reward him. The team was valued at $600 and was not injured.
