The weather gould not have been better, Particularly noticeable was the en- couraging number of first exhibitors from surrounding towns at the fair this year. Practically all of the avail- able space on both floors of exhibition ball was occupied and the exhibits were very attractive. A midway that was conspicuous for its want of ob- jectlonable -features was & novelty. There are’ a few harmless games of chance, ' fortung tellers, entertaining side shows ‘and imple supply of re- freshment booths ‘and stalls. .

The latter are almost a black, very dark brown and are pretty as pictures. Most cat- tle men do not arrive until late as they do not like to keep their choice stock away from home too long as the conveniences for caring for them prop- erly are wanting ui most fairs. Band Concerts. Wheeler's American band of this city, C, H. Whéeler, director, rendered popular selections throughout the aft- ernoon and filled in with the fine vaudeville acts between the heats of the two horse races that were run off Tuesday afternoon. The band will give conocerts at frequent intervals all-day today and Thursday, and there will be & repetition of the daring stunts performed by the artists who are right off the big Keith circuit, Athletic events are scheduled for today, the big_day, and Asa Wilkes, who was led up before the grand stand Tuesday af- ternoon, will start an exhibition mile to try and lower the world's record for a half mile ring. Starter Walter R. King declaimed to the interested spectators relative to his breeding, owner, past, present and prospective worl Daniel Con- gray squir- The Races. Two good horse races were on the card for Tuesday afternoon, the 2. and the 25 pac Sixteen ho were entered in the first. and eight in the last race but the last race was first and the first last but as the finish s not yet in the race that was called first, which was to have been last, it will after all has been done and sald be last. Starter King called these horses to the wire for the first heat of the 2.35 pace at 2.30 o'clock: Molly W. H. Hall, Willington; Ella R. c m.'W. F. Bailey, Norwich; Star Tuck- er, ch. g, M. H. Jones, Willimantic, and ‘Billkkin, ch. g, T. R. Sadd, Wil- limantic; the rest of the entries did not start. ~Five heats were run and it was necessary to continue the race until teday at 1 o'clock when still an- other heat will be run. The first heat was taken in this order: Star Tucker, Molly J. Ella R. and Bilikin. Time, 2.21 "1-4; second heat, Star Tucker, Ella R, Molly J. and Billikin, time 221 1 third heat, Ella R.

Race undecided. Out of the grist of starters for the 2.22 class but four came ‘to the scratch and County Beater was added to the list to make that number. This was also a particularly classy race and required four heats to decide the su- premacy. After the second heat Jack Lynch ‘was taken down from behind County Beater, .not because of any- thing crooked, stated the starter, but because of his inexperience as a driv- er, and Ellery Ftheridge of Norwich was ‘asigned In_ his stead by the judges. Happy Holigan. came to grief early in this race, being distanced in the second heat. He broke badly be- fore the first turn after the start and could mot be ‘brought back and only circled the oval once. The heats were taken injhis order: First. heat, Black Wilkes, Milly Baggs, County Beater and Happy Hoaligan, time, 220 1-4; second heat, Black Wilkes, Billy Baggs, County Beater, time, 2.20 3-4: third heat, " County Beater, Billy Baggs and Black Wilkes, time, 220 1-4; fourth heat, Black Wilkes, ‘Billy Baggs and County Beater, time,” 2,28 1-4, The hors therefore. won' the money as follows Black Wilkes, first; County Beater, second, and Billy Baggs, third.

Attendance of Citizens—200 Miles ‘of Walks Involved. The’ official comprising Alderman William A. Dawson, chairman, Aldermen A. L. Gelinas, Attorney Thomas J. Kelley, Town Clegk Frank Fenton and Fred D. Jordan, held & public hearing in the council chamber ~Tuesday evening. There ‘ere present six other voters and ‘the usval quota of newseamer men. The big proposition, which. is with- out question the biggest that has con- tronted the city since its incorporation, emhodying, as it does, the question of districting the city, deciding upon suitgble materiais and requisite gpeci- fication for laying 200 miles of side- walk, was informally discussed from many of its varied and perplexing phases, Among the citizens present to express theirsideas were Messrs, Vanderman, Bath, Hurley, Jones and Lyman: . Members of the committee talked freely upon the problem. Re- grets were expressed by practically all present at the small number of citizens . attending. Mr. Kelley took occaslon to take a shot at the original sidewalk agitators Small sidewalk _committee, .for their negligence in not being on hand when duty called. Not one of the prime movers was present. It ‘was decided that mem/rs of the committee should visit other cities in paits or singly, ascertaining the most for the city to conform in this matter with the re- cent new amemdment to the. city charter, relating to sidewalks.

Chased from Willimantic, an a employer, and - by bim on Plegsant street, - aft- ernoon at 3.30 o'clock, Wilfred Lois- seauy, 22 years old, was héld up by Patrolman John J. Conlin and Pierce D. Power, Station 1, taken to the office of Chiet of Police David A. Mat- thews, given the third degree, and then, an hour later, was' booked on charges of larceny and fornication. Eugenie Potvin, 21 years old, also of Willimantic, was locked up at the same time on a charge of fornication, the stories told by Loisseau and her- self causing her arrest. According to Chief of Police Mat- thews, Loisseau is a barber and was employed by John Potvin, who runs a barber shop in Willlmantic. _Potvin also has a family, the pride of which is Bugenie. Potvin, the father, took Loisseau, the barber, into his family, to room and board, and introduced hi to all the Potvins, including Bugenie, who is a splendid looking young wo- man. Some time Sunday morning early, Loisseau got up and, according to Potvin, the father, went to the barber shop, and entering took two hair clip- pers, and three razors, valued at $7.50. Potvin says Loisseau returned to the Potvin bome, and by painting glowing colors, enticed Bugenie_from her home and gat her to run away to Worcester with him, ‘Wheri Potvin, head of the family, got up Sunday, he went to the barber shop, and discovered his loss. He turned back home to tell Loisseau about it, but he couldn’t find Lois- seau and a further investigation re- vealed the fact that his daughter, Bu- genle, was also missing. The loss of his barber tools, valued at $7.50, rankled in Potvin's mind, but the loss of Eugenie worried him more, . He investizated the matter and found that Loisseau and Bugenie had bought tickets for Worcester, he said yesterday, and left on an early train. Potvin came to Worcester and hunted high and low, but it was look- ing for a needle in'a hystack, until| yesterday afternoon, when he was on A Il?lflv E m,“om | and asleep on the steps at tm. Wheaton resisted the officer and scratched his face badly. o \ Because he would assist Officer low' in making the arrest, Joseph artin, who keeps a little restaurant on Rallroad square, has also been ar- rested and his case was continued until Saturgay. -Martain claims that he was too ill to assist an officer in the performance of such & duty. This is what he will have to prove to sat- isty the court. INJURIES FATAL. James Norton Dies—Back Broken in Mill Accident. .

In the early spring of 1861 there occurred a_freshet, almost of the proportions of the memorable freshet of 1886, Dur- ing this high water the Hopeville dam suffered the loss of 25 or 30 feet plumb in the middle. ‘When the water sub- sided in_the early summer of '61, the late Henry Lathrop, whe was su- perintendent of the mili, ordered that a certain white oak on a hillside near y‘be cut and placed across the break s a foundatfon or mud sill upon which shopld rest the later repairs. ‘The tree was nearly two feet through at the butt argl 30 feet long.

Accompanied by Patrolmen Conlin and Power, Loisseau took them to & room in the house occupied by Lula M. Fairbanks, 747 Main street. The three entered and found Fugenie. /She was taken to police headquarters, where, in answer to questipns, she told Chief Matthews that she and Loisseau hired a room at 747 Main street, and stayed there Sunday night, telling the land- lady they were husband and wife. The couple were then locked up and will be tried in Central district court, this forenoon, The Potvin girl told Chief Matthews after she was locked up that she won't go home with her father; that she wants to marry Lois- seau, and that he loves her.

A number of Danielson people were at Woodstock Tuesday to attend,t! annual fair, which i§ & sort of an old heated with stoves and this mgthod is| not at all times satisfactory. The proposal for steam heating the Attawaugan school building calls for the expenditure of $350, the equipment to consist of a heater of modern type and five fadiators. The proposal for the Dayville school calls for the ex- penditure of $450, the equipment to conists of a heater of the same tyPe 8" is_proposed for the Attawaugan school, &nd seven radiators. Another matter that is being consld- ered by the school board.is the fur- nishing of transportation ‘for 17 stu- dents, from. Williamsville who are at- tending the gratymar school in Dan- jelson. Since the beglnning of the present school year the students have been carried between Williamsville and Danfelson by Frank Kennedy of Dayville at an_expense of $3 a day to the town. This, however, 'is only s temporary arrangement. The at- tendance of the Williamsville students at tig schogl in Danielson has per- mitted closin® the higher grade of the school in that vfilage. There will be very little ‘difference in the cost of transperting the students to Daniel- son and cost of main‘aining an extra grade at the Willlamsville school, as the salary of one teacher is saved. It is understood that the pres- ent arrangement |s very satisfactory to the parents of the Wililamsville students that are attending school in Danielson. Tt is the opinion also of members of the school board that bet- ter results can be obtainededy this plan of centralization. To Vote on License. The petition that a clause be insert- ed in the warning for the annual town meeting asking that a vote be taken on the license question In the town of Killingly has been filed and has more than two hundred signatures append- ed. The time for filing the petition expired Monday at midnight” The number of names necessary to secure to*get a vote on the matter in this town was 156. Both the license and no-license people will begin a stren- uous campalgn to win.a victory at the polls. Various Item: Scarcely a potato bug can be found in this town and.the pest has almost entirely disappeared and where the bugs have gohe or what has caused them to gn,away are matters that hold considerabl® interest for those who like to know about such thinge. There is not much prospect that Killingly high school will have a foot- ‘ball eleven this fall. There is not a great amount of material at the school out of which to mould a team and the material at hand is not excecded by the interest to develop a team. It is probable, however, that the school wilt Dbe represented by a fast basketball team, i Thousands of rallfoad tiés are be- inz loaded on a work train at Day- ville this week to be taken and dis- tributed at varfous points along the dlvision. For many months ties have been brought in to Dayville by per- sons having them for sale to the rail- road company and at present there are many thousands of the sleepers piled up at that station.
