"Vesetable Sicilian

HAIR RENEWER

Has stood the tost of goven years before tho publie and no preparation for the hair h»s yet been discovered that will produce the same beneficial results. It is an entirely new scientific discovQry,combining many of the most powerful and restoratire agents in the VEGETABLE KINGDOM. It restores GRAY HAIR TO ITS ORIGINAL YOUTHFUL COLOR. It makes tho scalp white and clean cures dandruff and humors, and falling out of the hair and will make it grow upon bald heads, except in very aged persons, as it furnishes the nutritive principle by which the hair is nourished and supported. It makes the hair moist, and glossy, and is unsurpassed as a HAIR DRESSING. It is the cheapest preparation ever ©ffered to the publie, as one bottle will accomplish more and last longer than three bottles of any ether preparation.

It is reeommonded and used by the Firs Medical Authority. The wonderful results produced by our Sicilian Hair Renewer have induced many to manufacture preparations for the Hait under various namos and, in order to induce the trade and the public to purchase their eompounds, they have resorted to falsehood, by claiming they were former partners, or had some connection with our Mr. Hall, and thoir preparation was similar to ours. De not be doceived by them. Purchase the original: it has never yet been equalled. Our Treatise on the Hair, with certificates, sent free by mail. See that each bottle has our private Revenue Stamp over tho top of tho bottle. All others are imitations.

TERRE-HAUTE

STATE FAIR.

THIRD DAY.

The State Pair has commenced, "Tell it in Gath and proclaim it in the streets of Askolon." The thousands upon thousands of people, the clouds upon clouds ol dust the thieves upon thieves, and the loving couples from the country up no that won't do all these things proclaimed that the State Fair had broken out upon Terre Haute as does the passion flower upon the air of a monastery. In fact, the State Fair is the only passion^ Terre Haute suffers at present, but it has got it bad, and the little Prairie City is actually choking with rage.

Well regulated people start for the Fair about half past eight o'clock,- and arrive on the grounds in time to see the affair in the full tide of glory. T« follow the Rienzian figure,you go ahead with tho current, not liko a fellow nabing on to fortune and undying fame, but as a "base, ignoble slave," until you ask the Treasurer how many tickets have been sold, and he tells you eight thousand. Remembering that last year but five thousand were sold all day on Wednesday, you conclude that the Fifteenth Exhibition is more successful than the Pourteenth, and

Terre Hautian remembers that the reason is simply that the Fair i3 not at Indianapolis. A gentleman from the Capital would have another reason to offer.

THE CROWD.

Taking the statement of the Treasurer of the sale of eight thousand tickets before dinner, and the estimate of from twelve to fifteen thousand pesple on the grounds during the day, is rather under than over the figure.

ENTRIES. f-v

The time for the reception of entries was again extended, and the exact number in the various departments can not be known until to-morrow. What they are can be judged from the statement of the Secretary that up to dinner time yesterday, the amount of entry fees received are $1,930, as against $937, for the entire sum last year. Last year, of course, was not an average, but twist it as you may, the fact is apparent that Terre W aute has made the most successful exhU hibition ever held by the State Board.

ROUND ABOUT.

Temporarily ignoring the main features of the Fair, a stroll through thesuburbs is not without interest. There are some good shows, and some for which a man should be indicted. The little menagerie on its way to join that of C. Ames, Now Orleans, is the best legitimate exhibition on the grounds. A couple of negro minstrel troops give as good cork opera as can be expected at Fairs. Tho Japanese Juggler, with extraordinarily patriotic bowels, spitting red, white and blue ribbons out of his intestines at a fearful rate, is a loading card, and is, they say, at Indianapolis, playing to good houses. This chromatic disembowlment will be given during tho week. There is a show where two hybrid men and a female shake charmer show forth, which every one should ignore. It is simply terrible: disgusting and outrageous. It will shock the nerves, the moral sensibilities and decency of everybody except an orang outang. A fine collection of stuffed birds fills one canvass and then, of course, is our friend the fat Col. weighing som(v« thing less than a thousand, and standing seven feet ten, or ten feet and seven, immaterial which,

This summary exhausts the shows, but there is a never failing fund of amusement in listening to the "blowers" as they relate the respective merits of their exhibitions. Then there is the pop corn men, who send off a corruscation of jokes not older than the flood, equal in point of immensity to the frosty cereal lumps they retail at a half dime We can not attempt a description of the odd fringing of theState Fair,but as no garment would be a la made without the edging no State Fair is just the cheese without its appropriate suburbs. These must be seen and heard to be properly enjoyed.

To commence seeing the Fair proper, we will enter the FLORAL AND TRUIT HALL.

This is the main hall of the Fair for 9ize and yet the display is probably the most meagre. Mr. Gilbert, the Superindent, has done all possible with the resources at his command, but the ugly glarj of empty shelves salutes you with the same feeling they inspire in the minds of the minister at the Thursday night prayer meeting. In the floral line the most striking display is the central pyramid of Heinl Brothers, made up of greenhouse and bedding plants. Among this collection we notice twelve varieties of that peculiar spotted leafplant, Colladium. There is a Sago Palm, several of the Cissus plants, and some elegant Begonias. Next to Heinl comes smaller but most tasteful and recherche display, by William Scholtz. It is a rustic landscape scene, and among the rocks and trees springs forth a tiny water jet, whieh is most pleasing in its effect.

Tropical plants are the rare things in this show Cadi of all inordinary conceptions ficus stipulaia—a South American running vine—and Tea Roses in bloom are some of the features which embellish Mr. Scholtz's display. These are the only two professional entries in the floral department.

Two amateurs are in the list the display of Mrs. Madrigal embraces a fine specimen of collae vershaffalii, a passion flower, soa 9 Colladiums, and a few fine Calla Lillies, which are a little injured by the cold of the past few days, the edges of their elephantine leaves being slightly burnt.

MJS.

Joseph Grover has her pri

vate collection of plants, among which ear a few very rare herbs. A South America Auch irnen es, a large rutllia eoruea (flesh color) an Oxalii Bowii from the C^pe of Good Hope, and an Habratarrmus .4 of Chili are the chief. Both collections are in excellent order, and consider* ng the heat and drouth reveal the most excellent care by both ladies. The fruit department embraces a

very large display

of apples, peaches, pears, flowers,

and

grapes, but in tho latter feature the show* is not fully up to what it should be. Valentine Morgan, of Prairie Creek, F. Morris,'Leonard Brake, P. H. Monninger, A. B. Pegg, and Mrs. E. Calhoun, of iety, Regan of Hendricks county, L. M. Smith, of

Vincennes, W. M. Mildman

& Son, of Rockville, Charles Lowder, of Hendrick, and John Ott, of

cherries

Rockville, are

the main exhibitors. A seedling peach grown by J. B.McCormick, of Princeton looks well, and is a candidate for a local habitation and a

name. Some monthly

of

Mrs Calhoun are universally

remarked. For the feest three varieties of grapes, the Concord, Diana and Clinton are entered, and for single variety the Concord. These fruits and flowers complete the hall, which we regret is not fuller, but what there is is of excellent quality.

MECHANICS HALL.

The Mechanics Hall is full to overflow­

•TPWrf

These two halls are as much as any one can 6ee very well in one day, and he has to be a sort of Argus-eyed genius to succeed in that. This morning the Fine Art Hall will be fully under way, and will be a splendid morning's work for a party of two or more, to which our readers are cordially invited.

THE PRESIDENT'S PREMIUM.

So far as we can learn there appears to be but six entries for the one thousand dollar purse. The action of the Committee in making the horses go abreast was not compatible with safety or the feelings of horse men, and by permission Mr. Dorsey, of Kentucky, owner of the GoldDust horses, appeared before the Executive Committee aud made a statement of what he conceived to be the wishes of turfmen, after which the following resolution was passed, which we presume will definitely settle the vexed question of how the fast trottera are to "go

Resolved, That the horses going for the President's premium be required to go in pairs, and if there be odd numbers, the odd one shall go either alone or in another pair, as the Board may direct, and that they shall go in the order in which they are entered.

THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

At its meeting yesterday adopted the following resolution, which will be of interest to all concerned fey Mr. Poole

Resolved, That the Superintendent bo instructed to examine all stock, especially horses, now in the stalls on the Fair Ground, and to enforce our rules by enforcing the owners to remove said horses or stock from the ground, unless they are entered and have show cards, or are payping for the use of the stalls occupied.— Said stalls being paid for, are not to be retained, if required for horses or other stock now entered and requiring places in the ground, and that said Superintendent report to this Board at its next meeting.

COMMITTEES.

At the meeting of the Executive Committee in the morning, the following committees were appointed:

MISCELLANEOUS.

The clouds yesterday gave promise of rain but before noon the sun was terribly hot, and continued, so without intermission The dust was Israelitishly thick, and tho crowd "tremenjus."

As the girl said, the balloon ascension did not go up." A mistake occurred somewhere, but to atone for the disappointment partially, a small girl with a large voice, let her little pink abomination loose,: and it sailed out into the majestic deep in a remarkable style. The little miss refused to bt comforted, .because her gas-bag was aot. ,~

There are not more than half enough, accommodations on the Terre Haute Bailrond, and at least half as many more trains should be run during to-day and to morrow, if it al? possible. The four o'clock eastern extra should also be run.

ing, but under the able superintendence of Mr. P. F. Davis, of Muncie, is very finely arranged. If the waste room of the Floral Hall had been thrown into this department, it could have been well used. On the outside of the hull are arranged the mowers and reapers, drills cultivators, corn planters, corn plowers, revolvingjrakes, sorghum mills, bee hives, fruit dryers, pumps, etc., etc., without number. Inside there are a large number of things which will attract a man's eyes. First comes an excellent display of Mooney & Co.'s belting and prepared leather, from Indianapolis Burnett & Ross, of this city, contribute a very fine lot of collars, amid a general display of leather and findings Thompson & Keyes have spokes and hubs Olivia A. Condit, of Indianapolis, has a case of feather work, which is very beautiful Ellis, wool dealer, has a case of cloths there is a new kind of carpet called 'Campillion," something on the oilcloth order Cory & Mancourt display hardware John M. Reiz shows cloths Long, Black & Allstatter, of Hamilton, have it fine case of sickle teeth, and next to them a beautiful show of saws from E. C. Atkins & Co. thero is a lot of horse shoes, made by W. H. Worthington, which are somewhat remarkable in finish, considering that no file was used on them at any stage of their manufacture R. L. Ball has a fine collection of stoves and tin ware,followed by a few stoves from the Evansville foundry of Roelker, Blount & Co. Clift & Williams exhibit a fine display of sash, doors and blinds, and a beautiful bannister column. W. P. Gallup, of Indianapolis, is prepared to "Weigh things on a lot of Fairbanks' scales. Ezra Smith & Co., of Richmond, have a number of school desks and seats. Some hay forks and rakes are there from the Southern Penitentiary. B. M. Spicer & Co. have seven very valuable articles, the Gospel golden number and any number of "in* ventions," under which term is comprised the full gamut of churns, washing machines, gates, spinners, looms rat traps, etc., make up the furniture of the Mechanics' Hall. It is a busy scene, and one calculated to inspire the beholder with awe. Above and over all is the hum of the looms, slightly mixed with tho remarks of fellows with "things" they want to sell county rights for.

To* stall forty-two is the Rush county mare. Loulpder, a pale gray mare, owned ''bjH°ur friend, J- Loder, Esq. It is but proper to say that she is one of the most'"promising animals ever shown in this State.

In tho cattle line there' .are the displays ofD. McMillan, of Xenia Loder and Caldwell of Rush county Culbertson, of Edgare^iirty, Illinois, are the principal exhibitors in the sheep way. The fine wool class is well represented by H.

The pens containing tho hogs, and sheep are the center of attraction to a majority of our farmers, who are interested in tne betterment of stook.

FARM PRODUCTS.

The hall devoted to farm products is quite sparsely lurnished. There is the usual compliment of "big things"—such as Irish' and Sweet Potatoes. Squashes, Pumpkins &c., Mrs. Pegg exhibits seven* ty.fo.ur, kinds of pickles and peaches, arid eighteen kinds of dried fruits, Mrs Wm. Patrick is well up with her Mrs G. H. Whidden, Mrs. Thirza Weir, and Mrs. J. J. Ferrill also have fine collections of jellies, canned fruits, and pickles. It is here that the pickles and preserves of Mrs. Stevenson are seen, and which of themselves are worth the admission foe. For the premium on white corn there are fourteen half bushels entered. Taking altogether, the display is not so fine as should be, but still mnch better than might have been eipecfed considerthe drouth and heat of the past season.

MISCELLANEOUS HALL.

-The Miscellaneous Hall is not very well filled, either. There are scwiog machines from Wheeler & Wilson's,' Singer's, and Grover & Baker's establishments, and next to them are some trunks from Binkloy & Perrine, and R. L. Shilling, of Indianapolis. Tho leather trunks of tho latter firm are very excellent, and are tho very finest specimens of that kind of work we ever saw. Shilling is the great trunk man at Indianapolis, at No. 65 West Washington-street. B. Weisz &Co. have fine show of noop skirts, which our lady readers know more about than wo do. N. Katzenbach has a fine case of cigars and tobacco. Hendrich & Fellinger show very fine queens and chinaware F. J. Medina has a case of hair-work Mrs. M. A. Walker has the finest millinery work which has ever graced any fair, Stale or county. few pleasant-looking coffins, from tho establishment of Isaac Ball, one of the cases coming from the celebrated Cincinnati factory of Crane, Beed & Co. Dry goods afe^displayed, by Tuell, Ripley & Co., and by ttio Boston store Hartsock

On the north side of this Hall is the carriage work, the displays mado up by somo elegant work from B. C. Shaw, atjd Bronermian & Renner, of Indiannpoli?, and A.

ENTRIES

The total number of entries is reported as follows: Livestock 509

Mochanical 577 Agricultural.. 376 Miscellaneous 353

Total 1,820. Tho'fees from these entries are nearly, if nofc quite two thousand dollare.

.. MERE MENTION.

The police did a, lovely business all day. Iu the morning the guard house was cotnle(ioly filled, but pearly all were of inoxicated men. Among the victims of police vigilance

With the aid of.a! caE^^'/us soap'' he slipped thecoils pfjfistifcVa'na departed. jFire work$ and batyoon ascensions are entirely ansge spiele. What the reasons are We don't kno(w, but oach party—people anff exhibitors—are willing to assign any number, from one to a thousand. On the whol^e are not sure that the State Fair los'es' anything by the failure of the Wial and pyrotechnic gentlemen. ,The balloon wedding was tohaveeome off in front of the Torre, Haute House at p-jyclock, but the weather,, and the want of a balloon, as"well as a couplo and a minister, compelled the postponement of tbat senssSional evbnt.

The State Board are very reticent aa to tba number of entries for the great trot today, but we are informed that seven horstes aro to run for th6 puree. Among them "are,the celobrataid Silas Rich, and Rolla "Gold Dnst'.

The Executive Committee appointed a large number of. examining committees, who were busy during tho day, in attending to their duties. Tfio awards will be publishedJo^morrow.,

The' nuinber iff" attendance yesterday may be judged, fro^a thjj. fact that over "t^eptJ^houaaM! tftikets^ were sold, although last year twenty^six thousand were sole on Thursday.' -Had the weatliar beon Jat all pleasant, we niuyjafely aay («a the 'Hay iB*pafty ibfet ''fin.y^gi^pwd-^arda^ 'of admission would have been neeeisary to supply the crowd.

The weather permitting, Miss Kate Kemper will give a wonderful equestrian performance with an unbridled horse, on the grounds. The animal is exceedingly well trained, and is under the most perfect MBtrel of the th« young lady.

THE «RBAT TROT.

The great interest of the day was centered in tbe contest for the one thousand dollar purse. At two o'clock the Judges, Mark Smith of Muncie, Horace Britton of Evansville, and Rob. Watt of Wayne county, entered the stand and the horses were called out. The track after the rain of the day previous was in superb condi tion. From twenty to thirty thcusandpeople densely packed the amphitheatre and the lines around the ring, while the centre was well,filled with carriages. The whole scene as viewed from the Judge's stand was one of the grandest ever witnessed in the State, and demonstrated the fact that the horse is one of the best cards of an agricultural exhibition.

The horses were called and the following mado their appearanoe: W. S. Bishop's bay mare "tiiezie Warrick W. Brown's "Sir Walter," of New Albany P. W. Dimmock's sorrel gelding "Sila3 Rich H. T. Dexter'sbay gelding "John A. Logan L. L. Dorsey's bay gilding, "Rolla Gold Dust," and sorrel maie "Rosa Gold Dust R. B. Carpenter's grey gelding "Champaign," ot Tolono, Ills. and Owen Tuller's Chesnut gelding, "Billy Barr," of this city,

The old squabble about the "go," was renewed nearly all seemed dissaatisfied with the arrangement. As there are eight entries and but one can win tho purse, it is expected there will be several dissatisfied individuals. The Board had previously decided the horses were to go in pairs, and from this decision there was no let up."— The judges announoed that the horses would be called in pairs acoording to number of entry, and that if there was only ono ready to go the purse would be awarde I to it. This brought those who had handed in their percentages to terms, and the trotting [commenced by calling Lizzie. Warriek and Sir Walter as the first pair.

Sir Walter took the lead and kept it to the end, coming out about fifteen feet ahead, making the mile in 3:A9 Liaxie Warrick in all*.

The second pair Silas Rich and John A. Logan came outon th« trak, and af ter three ineffeotual attempts, got off tho first named leading, Logan began to pick up on the third quarter—too late, however, and Rich came out en 3:65, with 'gan following at 2:3T.

Tbe third pair were Dorsey's horses, Rolla and Rour Gold Oast. At the start Rolla took the lead, but Rosa eatne in ahead on the first half mile at the end of the third quarter they were neck and neck, when Rolla shot ahead, and at the close led by about ifty feet. Time—2:37fc Rosa 2:41.

The fourth pair consisted of "Cham* paign" and "Billy Barr." The former won the poll, and the two started off well, and throughout exhibited the prettiest, and most even trotting of the series.'— Champaign led off, but Barr soon caught up with him, and for next quarter ef a mile they were neek and neck, neither horse making a misstep. Champaign took the lead on the last quarter and came in forty feet ahead, making the mile in 2.34£, while Barr was set down at 2.36.

The first beat was awarded to Carpenter's horse Champaign. At the conclusion of this heat a heavy rain set in. but the trotting was continued until five o'clock—three additional heats being accomplished—when night coming on it was found necessary to adjourn the contest until this morning. The following is the time thus far, including the lrst heat. I

A young man from the mining regions blandly and innocently inquired at the Secretary's office if "Sam WTashburn had bought a ticket to come to tMie fair This joke does not require orthography to explain.

PREMIUMS

The following are the awards made in Sections 2 and 3, in Mechanical Department. The selection of this committee was a judicious one, all all of its members being practical mechanics:

Stationary Engine, Joseph Grorer, of Terre Haute. Purtable Engine, Garr & Co., Bich mond, Ind.

Drain Tile Machine, Henry Dawson Acton, Ind. Brick Machine, Cayrea Brick Machine Co., Columbus, Ohio.

Shingling Machine, Joseph Grover, Terro Haute. Portable Grist Mill, Nordyke, Norman & Co., Richmond, Ind.

American Turbine Water Wheel, Stout, Mills & Tomple, Dayton, 0. Tho merits of the various portable steam engines on exhibition rendered the decision of the committee a difficult one, but after thorough investigation it was given as above.

FITTH BAT.

The crowd was not quite so large as on yesterday, owing to tho very heavy rain which fell about noon and at night, with a threatening aspeet all day. The fair is nevertheless a complete success, and the crowd seemed in the best possible humor over the rain that had come with drenching power at last. Eighteen thousand and twenty«four tickets were sold yesterday at the gate, and the receipts from tickets to this time are nearly fourteen thousand dollars from all sources, twenty thousand dollars, up to last night, which is six thousand dollars in exeess of the entire receipts last ar.

The contest is for the three best heats. From tho above it will be seen Champaign has two heats, Sir Walter one, and Billy Barr one. It is generally regarded that Champaign stands the best chance for the next heat. He has astonished ^everybody by his fine and steady movement. The Louisville horses do not seem to be fortunate. Of course exeitemeat runs high.

LAST DAT.

The fifteenth annual Indiana State Fair closed Saturday eveniog, after the most successful exhibition ever held in the State. All honor to the citizens of our Prairie City, who invited what at first appeared an elephant, and to the officers and State Board, who so successfully carried it through. The officers assure us, that everything considered, it is fifty per cent, ahead of any previous fair and the figures support thi- assertion. At t,be fair of 1?6S, at Fort Wayne, 6,200 efntrance tickets were :oM last year at Indianapolis, 3$,009 tickets, and at this fair 55,214 tickets were cold.
