HAPPY CROWDS SEE UNION SHOW CLOSE Despite Fall of Rain Last Day Is Marked by Increased Enthusiasm. MANAGEMENT IS PLEASED Attendance Beyond Expectations and Greatest Satisfaction Is Expressed in Support Given by Ad jacent Communities. UN'IOX, Or.. June 7. (Special.) The fifth annual Union Livestock Show which closed today was the greatest meeting In the history of the associa tion. Despite the fact that rain fell today the crowd was good natured and the different events were carried out as scheduled with many specials thrown in for good measure. Trots, paces, chariot races, relays, half and quarter-mile dashes followed one another with little or no delay, while the rain fell and the track was slippery. Everybody was In a good humor and when the storm finally passed the management of the associa tion put renewed energy Into the pro gramme and the crowd shouted itself hoarse in good natured approval of the energy of the management and per formers in pushing through the pro gramme to a whirlwind finish. In point of attendance the crowd, to day was second of the three days and highly satisfactory to the management. One of the principal events of the day was the awarding of the sterling silver cup by the O.-W. R. & N. company to the grand champion stallion, which in this case proved to be a Shire horse owned by V. R. Ledbetter. of Alicel. Management Well Pleased. The splendid attendanCA from all over this part of he state has been a matter of the greatest satisfaction to the management. Baker, La Grande, Island Pity, Sum mervllle, Elgin. Imbler. Haines, North Powder, Covo and all towns and ham lets tributary to this place sent big ucieganons to this show. Incoming trains yesterday were packed, every road entering town was crowded with buggies, wagons and horseback riders, with automobiles al most without number Intermingled. The Baker automobiles numbered over 60, about 25 came from La Grande. 15 from Elgin and several from each of the small towns In the valley, and all were filled. Professor ladings Judge. The judging of the stock, principally horses, was attended to by Professor E. J. Iddlngs. of the University of Idaho. Every award was made on merit, and even the defeated entrants acknowledged the justice of his aecl sions. The driving and saddle horses were much in evidence today, there be ing many entries in both the women's and men's single, double and horseback contests and there were many splendid animals shown, most of which came from the Grande Ronde Valley. Jack McCarthy, of La Grande, again won with his Morgan stallion Dandy, n animal that would stand well at the top of any show. An event Friday which called for loud applause was a "bucking stunt" pulled off by the Vetera rider. John Spain, who won his laurels at various times at the Pendleton Roundup, but last year lost one of his hands. The horse he rode today was a terrific bucker. but Spain rode him to a finish. RupIhk Aluch Enjoyed. The paces, trots, cowboy races, pony races, chariot races, and every other event gave rare sport for the great mass of people, which overflowed the stands and rails and often poured out on the track, while inside the rails there were nearly 200 autos filled with onlookers. There was but one slight accident and that occurred in the last event of 'the day in the women's relay race of a mile and a half, a horse to each half. On the back stretch on the first half Mrs. Pierce wa3 well in front of the other contestant. Miss Ollle Osborne, when her horse crowded the rail, caught the rider's foot and both were thrown, but without serious damage to either. The race was awarded to Miss Osborne, who made but one lap to win it. Balloon Kllght Sensational. There was a balloon ascension last niffht, the bia hotalr bag ascending frtm the heart of the town and the parachute falling with its pilot, just east of the public school building. The ascent and descent were sensational as the bis craft shot up almost perpen dlcularly for nearly 2000 feet, from which great he.'sht the parachute was loosened. FhANK P.
