OUT IN FORCE MINEOLA'S BIG FAIR Swarmed All Over the Grounds and Had Time of Their Lives. CROWD BROKE ALL RECORDS. Youngsters Had Money to Spend and Disbursed It With True Youthful Abandon. (Special to the Eagle.) Mineola, L. September 26-The youthful element of Queens and Nassau counties certainly had a great day at the county fair yesterday, when they were admitted free to the grounds.

They were favored with the best weather of the week, and this gave them an incentive to enjoy the day to the fullest extent. The young folks took in that could afford any fun, both inside and outside the grounds. The swings, merrygo-rounds, shooting galleries, hit-the-nigger-on-the-head and other amusement providers had a rush of business all day. The popcorn, peanut, banana, lemonade and other stands a also reaped a harvest through the patronage of the youngsters. Balloon venders, tickler and whip merchants and others made money in stacks.

The keeper of the ostrich pen, with his birds on exhibition at 10 cents per look, did a land office business, and had to sit up late last night to count his cash, so large were the receipts of the day. The young folks had great fun watching Fleetwing and Miss Florida, two of the ostriches, which were driven about the racetrack. The birds behaved better than usual yesterday. Miss Florida cut up a few didoes, but went well dn harness. The exhibition buildings and tents had throngs of the young folks all day.

The exhibition of school work seemed to interest them as well as their parents and teachers. Souvenir hunting was a spewith many of the children, some gathered up about all they could carry. Children Literally Made the Day a "Howling" Success. The young fo folks not only had fun yesterday, but they made the fair a "howling" success. Their pleasures were also the pleasures of the older eleling with the youngsters and watching ment, the latter seeming to a enjoy mingtheir indulgence in different amusements as much as if they were boys and girls once more and having all the fun.

The presence and evident happiness of the young folks certainly brought pleasant recollections of days gone by and frequently the expression was heard, "I wish I were a boy again." In point of attendance yesterday was the biggest day since the school children have been admitted to the fair. The attendance of the grown-up element, of course, is figured in, but the combined elements gave the society the biggest fourth day it has ever had. There were no means at hand to tell just how many persons were in the grounds, 'but the crowd was estimated to be over 25,000. As on Thursday, the big grand stand was packed, the aisles being utilized during the afternoon, also the press stand in front, the stand rails, and other places of vantage. The crowded condition of the grand stand on Thursday and yesterday, coupled with the fact that hundreds of persons wanted seats, but could not get them, demonstrates that the society must enlarge the stand without delay or continue to lose money by turning away patronage from the stand.

The crowds that occupied the green in front of the grand stand had difficulty yesterday and Thursday in seeing the finish of the races. The green is sloped some, but not enough to permit those who are obliged to stand back and look over the heads of other spectators to 808 the Anish of the horses, unless one is exceptionally tall. This is due not only to the improper slope of the green, but to the fact that crowds line up against the track fence during the races, and thereby help to shut out the view of the Anish. Racing Fully Up to the Standard. The racing yesterday was good in every particular.

The card afforded a 2:25 class pace, a 2:16 class pace, each for a $500 purse, and two running races, open to all, each for a purse of $150, at distances of three-quarters of a mile and a mile and one-sixteenth. In the 2:25 pace, "Jotah, a grey mare, which John F. Remsen of Roslyn and Fred Post of East Williston purchased from Gus Gurske, a blacksmith at East Williston, recently, won first money. The mare was bred by W. Bourke Cockran, but only lately began to show speed.

She took three straight heats yesterday in 2:21, and Her competitors were Frank Plummer, a grey gelding of W. L. Reddy, Brooklyn, which took seeond money, and Little Andy, a bay gelding of C. S. Wells, Jersey City, which won third money.

The 2:16 pace, with a field of eight horses, took four heats to decide Nikko, a fast chestnut gelding of George Roeckel, Rockville Centre, took the first heat in 2:17, but could not hold his place. Elsa, a bay mare of Theodore L. Arthur, Brooklyn, won the following three heats and the race in 2:17 and Lady Ellwood, a chestnut mare entered by Henry Y. Fleet of Oyster Bay, won second money. Apollo, a bay gelding of E.

C. Burdick's of Jersey City, was third, and Madam Direct, E. D. Hollenbeck, Mineola, fourth. In the three-quarter mile dash for sunners, Grimaldi, owned by W.

H. Moffitt, Islip, won in 1:17. Coincident, Frank McFadden, Brooklyn, was second, and Royal Lady, another Mofftt entry, third. The second running event went to Killochan, a brown gelding of John Duffy of Gravesend, in 1:50. Killochan beat out Druid, an entry of W.

H. Moffitt, by a nose. Druid led all the way, but Killochan, splendidly handled, refused to be shaken, and came under the wire in great form. Umbrella, W. C.

Daly's runner, who captured events on Wednesday and Thursday, had to be content with third place. The fair closes this afternoon with a strong card of races, including a 2:10 pace.

With full military and civil honors, the body of Colonel Harry W. Michell, who died at his summer residence in Bayport, L. on Tuesday, was interred in Greenwood Cemetery yesterday afternoon, after a impressive ceremony In the armory of the Fourteenth Regiment. The entire regiment marched to the cemetery amid thousands sorrowing people who lined both sides of the streets through which the procession passed. The service was attended by hundreds of well -known Brooklynites who knew Colonel Michell and a large representation of the public and military service.

For two days the body had lain in state in the quarters of Colonel John H. Foote, with uniformed guardsmen always present. Many beautiful floral pieces, which had been received at the armory during the day, were placed about the walls of the colonel's room, and beside the catafalque where the casket rested. Before the ceremony hundreds of people took an opportunity to view the body, and then passed into the main part of the building to await the service. The casket, of rich oak and covered with Old Glory, was borne into the armory upon the shoulders of six missioned officers, preceded by the chaplain of the regiment, the Rev.

John Sattig, General, James McLeer, the daughters Colonel Michell, and Colonel Foote and his staff. Following the body were the officers of the Fourteenth, members of the Fourteenth Regiment Veterans Association, Grant Post, G. A. and the colonel's late associates in the excise department. As Chaplain Sattig descended the steps to the armory floor, Louis Conterno's band played Chopin's funeral march.

Chaplain Sattig conducted the regular Episcopal service, during which he paid a glowing tribute to the deceased. He said: "We are here to pay our hearty tribute to the work of Colonel Harry W. Michell. I have heard it said that we know our friends better after they have been taken from us, and I believe that it is true. While we have them with us, while we see their many achievements, their many occupations, our attention is riveted on those things, those incidents through life, and we fail to discover the principles that underlie their lives and we fail to discover that their actions were but a slight manifestation of the spirit within.

We know the streets and squares and may and monuments and buildings of the parks city, but when we behold the same from some high place We then see the relation that those things bear to one another. We observe the broad scope and general layout of. the city. I would ask to behold the character of our friend you because I believe we can gain a more complete picture of the man in his threefold character of citizen-soldier-friend. "First, as a citizen he served the people in the highest position that, in times of peace, a man can All.

I believe that the name Harry W. Michell will long be remembered in the office of trust that he held up to the time of his death. I have been told that his administration of that difficult public office has won for him the unstinted praise of the men who knew what he had to contend with. It was his knowledge of character and hig ability to draw from men the best that there in them that enabled him to diswas charge his duties 90 well. Oh, could we only realize the extent to which we are deeply indebted to public officers who distheir duties with intelligence and charge integrity.

We all unite in acknowledging that Colonel Michell did difficult work and did it well and we express to him the gratitude of those who have been benefited. But perhays the chapter of this life that appeals most to us who man's here is that chapter of his are gathered which tells of his service to career his country. In that career Colonel honorable name. The Michell won an Regiment is justly proud of Fourteenth his record. Colonel Michell rose from the ranks of this regiment.

His connection with it began on April 18, 1861, when he as a private. He enlisted in Company appointed a corporal August 1 and wag a sergeant November 1 of the same year. later he was appointed first One year sergeant and received his commission as lieutenant on February 21, 1863. second "At Gettysburg the following year we find him fighting with the rank of first lieutenant. Colonel Michell fought in all of the engagements in which his regiment participated until he was captured by the at the Battle of the Wilderness.

enemy, At that time he was adjutant on the staff of General James C. Rice. He languished in Southern prisons until he was mustered out of the service, on March 12, 1865. Colonel Michell was elected captain of his own company, and after passing through the various ranks he was elected colonel, in 1885. Until 1897 he commanded the regiment, and retired at his own request.

Thirty-six-thirty-six- thirty-six continuous years of service in a regiment! That, I believe, is a very brief resume of his military career. It does not give the little personal touch that we would like. Time prevents from going into details, but they tell me that on one occasion during the Battle of Gettysburg he was wounded twice and refused to leave the field. Then he bravely bore those eleven months of imprisonment in Southern cities. At the Battle of Charleston he was one of the men exposed to the Confederate fire to prevent the shelling of the city.

"There is another side of the life of Colonel Michell that I want to speak about. As a friend he has, or was, endeared to many people. His genial manner. his handsome presence, his ready smile and willing hand characterized him a8 a friend until the very last. Some idea of his ability to make friends is shown in the Intimate relations between him and the men from whom he received his appointment.

The name of our illustrious commander will long be heard. We rejoice to think that this great man fought in the ranks of this regiment. The relation that he bore to some of the men in this regiment was sweet and I regret that I did not know him well; yet, as I entered this armory this afternoon on all sides I heard from soldiers and civilians the highest words of praise spoken on behalf of Colonel Michell. It is some time since any man, who has been called away, left such a number of admiring friends. His face will be missed.

There is no tribute that could be paid, no words that can be chosen to give him too much credit." As the chaplain concluded his eulogy the band softly played "One Sweetly Solemn Thought," followed by a brief Scripture reading and prayer. As the chaplain finished the words of his benediction, the band started "Nearer My God to Thee," and without interruption went off into Sullivan's solemn "Lost Chord." The body was carried out of the Fourteenth street door of the armory through a long lane of spectators to the hearse which waited on Eighth avenue The floral pieces were placed in two open victorias. General McLeer accompanied Colonel Michell's daughters and rode in their carriage to the cemetery. Mrs. Michell was unable le to attend the ceremony.

As egcorts there were Brevet Brigadier General Ardolph L. Kline, former colonel the Fourteenth: Colonel Henry C. Barthman of the Forty-seventh Regiment, Lieu- tenant Colonel F. H. Norton of the Twenty-third Regiment, Lieutenant Colonel derman Adam H.

Leich, President WillCharles O. Da Davis of the Thirteenth, iam Pinckney of the Fourteenth Regiment Veteran Association, State Excise Commissioner Maynard N. Clement, and Commander Hedley of Grant Post, G. A. R.

The procession formed on Fourteenth street 'and took practically the same order as when the body was carried to the drill room floor. All the companies of the Fourteenth lined the north side of the street, and at the command of Colonel Foote, swung into line, though somewhat hampered in their military tactics by carriages awaiting mourners. The line of march vas down Fourteenth street to Sixth avenue. south on Sixth avenue to Twenty-fourth street, west on Twenty-fourth street to Fifth avenue and into the main entrance of Greenwood at Twenty-fifth street and Fifth avenue. A detail of six mounted policemen, command of Lieutenant James McGovern, rode at the head, while Sergeant James Sheehan with twelve foot policemen preserved the lines of people.

At the gave, Company of which Colonel Michell was a member, formed about the plot, while Chaplain Sattig conducted the military committal service. The company then fired volleys over the grave and the bugle sounded "taps" as the coffin was lowered into position. Brooklyn Society One of the most important of the week's brides. had her wedding Thursday evening, her home on the Park Slope. This September bride was Miss Amy Titus Shotwell, daughter of Mr.

and Mrs. William Titus Shotwell of 223 Park place. She was married to Clarence Wilson Page of Chappaqua, N. in an extremely pretty wedding. The hour was half-past eight, and the Rev.
