WILLIMANTIC FAIR. Record Crowd for First Day—Success- ful Balloon Ascension—Fine Attrac- tions in All’ Departments. The ninth annual fair of the Horse- shoe Park Agricultural association opened at the fair grounds Tuesday forenoon with the record crowd for a first day. The various events sched- uled for the day were carried off with- out a hitch and there were some good numbers, The horse racing was spi ited, the wrestling good, and the ama- teur athletic events all that could be desired. Wheeler's American band en- livened up the crowd between times and the excellent vaudeville acts that were staged between the heats of the horse races were of a high quality. The balloon ascension, that was made shortly after 2 o'clock, was a perfect one and the balloonist went up to a fair height and then made a triple par. achute drop that caught the crowd in fine style. He was in the air exactly two minutes. Both the performer and the balloon came down within a short distance of the grounds. Along the Midway. The Midway was larger and more noisy than ever this year and w alive with catchpenny schemes, amont which were several fortune tellers, hit the coon in the head gags, shuffle boards, wheels of fortune, other harm- less devices, weight machines, all sorts of refreshment hooths and quick lunch stands, a merry go round, Ferris wheel, etc., etc. The barkers were hoarse from shouting and eversone seemed to be having the time of their lives. The crowd was a good natured one, which was the best feature of the dizzy ave- nue. The Connecticut experiment station of New Haven had a larze tent and therein exhibited many things of interest to the agriculturalist and farmer on a small scale as well as the student of botany and the entomolo- gist. In the various department: were that of agronomy and corn breed- ing with specimens, food products, pure whole spices, fertilizers, botany specimens of an excellent character, entomology department with specl- mens and many photographs, a fine display of photographs showing some insects and their work as shown by their action on exhibits of fruits, etc. The process of spraying and its valu was ,clearly demonstrated and there was a good department of forestry that was also especially interesting. Exhibition Hall. The main exhibition hall was d; off differently this fore and both floors contained man exhibits’ of an interesting nature to both old and young. The ground floor was given over, as in past vears, to the local merchants principally, and’ many of them had good exhibits: work booths of the W. C. T. U. a tracted not a littlz attention and there were a_number of ladies from out of town this year who were also present th fine exhibits of needlework and other fancy articles that came in for a close inspection from the throng that passed through the large building. The exhibits of the various farmers, such as fruits and vegetables, were really more diversified than for some time and many of these excellent exhibits were to be seen on the upper floor. The ‘Windham town farm'’a exhibit of fruits and vegetables was one of the best the building. and that of C. H. Savage of Storrs was also good. There were innumerable smalier ex- hibits. The familiar Worcester salt people, the C. Andrew Music Co., Watkins Bros., D. P. Comptois, furni- ture, and the Barbier-Lamoureux Co. were in their usual place Fenton dispensed his famous ice cream in the main booth in the center down stairs. Emeen Sliby was pi a fine line of drawnwork a gus Dry Battery company had an ex- hibit of its products. Art Department. The art department and the fancy work department consumed consider- able space on the upper floor of the main hall and should be seen to be thoroug appreciated. There were many different pieces of handiwork in these exhibits. The floral exhibit this vhile not as large as sometimes was unusually good, and W. A. I son's aspecially was very attractive An exhibit of burnt wood work attract- ed mucli attention The home-made goodies on the sec- ond floor looked most appetizing and certainly needed a guard to prevent the hungry person from heing tempted to just take a nibble. Poultry. The poultry exhibition hall noisy place and came in for visitors during the day. The collec of pigeons and other feathered was well worth a. cl the varietica on exhibition would com fowl e inspection and pare favorably with many a larger faj The poultry fanciers were just kept busy answering questions that were put to them and seemed to be very glad to answer all who queried them Znd some of the questions were cer- tainly the limit Cattle. C. B, Pomeroy of this among the first to arrive city * was with his ex- hibit of cattle which were mostly Hol- steins, and they were beautiful, too. Cattle day is today (Wednesday) and toward night the stalls and pens in the vicinity of the space reserved for the cattle,” sheep, pigs, etc., began to fill up rapidly and give promise of an un- usually fine assortment before the awards are made today. Athletic Events. The first thing of interest was the list of amateur athletic events that were run off in the forencon | There were two heats of the hundred | yard dash and four starters in each.

Daweon, starter; and Ray Parker, time measurers, Eugene Lewl and Dod Collin Wrestling Match. A little before 2 o'clock Walter R. King mewaphoned the announcement that Jim Barnes of Sprinsfield, Mass. and Bill Collins of Central Village would entertain the spectators with a wrestling match, Barnes having agreed to throw Colling twice within an hour. clerk of the T c N. Dondero Judges and Hub Card L. N. Dondero was the referee, and they went at 1t on the raised stand cross from the grandstand. Barnes succeeded in throwing Collins in 16 minutes on a chancery and crotch hold. There was a little resting spell and then they went at it again and the crowd was royally entertained. Bi Collins broke hold upon hold and seemed to wear his heavier opponent down considerably and at last he pi ned him to the mat in 18 minutes with scissors and armlock. The match was thus won by Collins, as Barnes had failed to throw him twice within an hour. Three Good Races. There were three good races.

The average short story of today is distinguished by the painful fact that it never gets anywhere. There are a lot of words—in .fact, a surplus of conversation. But at the end of it all after one has striven through page after page, the principal characters are found to be about where they were before the writer took them .in hand. In these stories there are generally a man and a_woman who are trying to come toget or a man and a woman who are already together and are in- evitably getting apart. The tale is made wp of their whims, Impulses, at- udes, hesitations, reticences, confi- dences. It never seems to oceur to anybody but the reader that a little action would go a long way. The writer's ut- most_concession to movement. toward a definite end is to permit somebody to walk across a room, g0 to a window or pick up a pink verbema. That change of position naturally alters the psychological relations of the princi- pal characters and starts them out anew. After a few pages of this one feels lile aman standing in a tiresome osition waiting for a parade to start. But the mugazine short story para- alus! it never sturts at all. It sta tired and then disbands. And the most astonishing of all, it that there has been o parade!

The magnitude of the work is somewhat greater than the general public presumed it would be and it is therefore attracting considerable at- tention.

The laborers for the company are opening a trench along the line for the sewer in Cana] street. Principal of Berlin School, Miss Helen Bradley, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George S.

Womanly beauty is about a s rare as birds with four legs, according to an Italian of wealth and title, who has just published some intercsting stai- istics in La Roma. According to this Italian statistician, among the French only one woman in every 2,500 has any pocsible one in women of beaut proportion. The German women he re- Tuses to consider beautiful at all. In Jand, he says has the greatest num- ber of beauties of any one nation of unmixed blood. the percentage being one in every 1,200 The conservative Ialian critic re- fuses to consider Americans as a race, because, he says, they are too poly- glot. Considering the one city of New York, however, be finds there are more beauties than in any foreign city— about one in every 1.200. And by “beauties,” he says. he does not mean “perfect beauties.” by any means. He means merely those with a few good features and no eccentricity to mar them. The cruelty of this Italian ge tleman, whose only distinction has been gained by his present statistics, seems at first glance to be wholly un-Christ- ilan. At best, he can only pick out the women who are beautifil to his own standards. W there are no women W ed beautiful Ly somebody or other therefore, all must be beautiful One man's opinion 13 @s gUod anulhers. Exchange Chance for Real Excitement.
