The crowd which gathorcd early In the day was the larsqst that has passed through the gates slnco the fair opened. The opening of a number of side, shows and other amusements, and the announcement that there would be a balloon ascension and parachute drop in the afternoon, probably had something some-thing to do with tho Increased attendance. attend-ance. As ll was imposslblo for tho balloonist to arrive here from the Colorado state fair In tlmo to make tho ascension, this pnrt of tho program pro-gram had to bo postponed until today, when the aeronaut will maltc two ascensions.
