The band playved lively airs and the hawkers added to the din. An umbrella vendor was do- ing a thrifty business and found ready buyers when it first began to sprinkle The palloon ascension was just as bag was carried up and over the grand stand and across the river away from the view of many within the main stand. The artist again made his dar- ing triple parachute drop that caught tag crowd. The Race: The first horse race to be called was the 2.14 trot or pace. Out of a field of seven entries but three horses re- sponded to the starter’s call as follows: Hal Direct, bl William Crosier, Hartford; Hattie B. Rae, Louis E. Saunders, Chatham, N. Y.; Forest Prince, b. g, T. E. Donovan, Shelton, Ct. Hatti . drew the pole, with Hal Direct next and Forest Prince on the outside. The first heat was a dandy between Hal Direct and Forest Prince, the former just nosing out ahead in zrand style, although he did not ap- pear to extend himself. Distance was waived in this race. Hal Direct was first In the two succeeding heats, Hattle B. second and_Fores The s2cond and last race for the af- ternoon was the 2.24 trot or pace, with five horses responding out of an entry list of twelve. Those competing were: The Arrow. bl. g.W. J. Ashton, Spring- feld, Mass.: Foot Prince, c. &, C. E Pitman, Trenton, N. J.; Ella R., ¢. m., . W. Bailey, Norwich: Bumps, b. g. T. E. Donovan.

This was an interesting race, but some remarked that it was fixed, a blind man could see that Foot Prince could have stepped it even faster than he did. Foot Prince won in straight heats and the other horses fi this order: The Arrow 4—3—4, Bumps 3—5—5. 5—4—2.

Score Was 8 to 1 in Game Played Wednesday Morning. The Colts did not fare so well Wed- nesday forenoon on Windham field be- fore the Bridgeport nine, when the ter took the game easily by th score of 8-1. The contest was a wretch- ed exhibition of boots and wild heaves by the local ;' yers and the arrors came at very critical stages when they were very injurious to the slim chance that the Colis had. The story of the game could be sum- nied up in a sentence—the trouble was that the locals were lamentably weak in pasting the pill, not being able to connect with Red Waller's spitters which seemed to be all that he had. Ladd. a former Willimantic boy, re- ved the sandy haired youth in the last of the sixth inning and Waller took Ladd's place in center field. whila Whelan warmed the bench and Don- nelly supported Ladd behind tha bat 1.add was certainly the funny man and &truck out three of the Colts and held them to only two hits. a slashing two- ‘bagger by Smith over the center field fence just to the right of the tree and a nice single by Campion which was his second hit of the game. Smith was again on the firlng line for the locals, but was poorly supported and allowed eight hits, although sev eral of them should have bean cut off with good sharp fielding. Manley wns in right field and Peloquin was taking Shaun Sullivan's place in left, which was out of hie line of business The crowd dld not seem to iike the game and many left toward the middle —apparently disgusted with the worst | succeasful as Tuesday, although the big | known farmer in that town and some | secretary, Mr. and Mrs. Christopher Simmons, died at his home, 292 Ash street, early Wednesday, following a lingering ill- ness.

Mr. Paine’s ability was recognized in other ways by his townsmen, who hon- ored him with election as a republican representative to the legislative session of 1907. It was during that session that he rendered another valuable ser- vice to Killingly, being iustrumental in securing the legislation authorizing a town court. On various committees named to care for important business transac- tions for town and borough his service was such &8 to merit further approba- tion from his fellow citizens, notably in connection with the construction of the new high school and new central fire station. He was also interested and participant in the activities of various borough organizations, lending by his membership and friendship a stimulus to affairs of local military company and fire department. On Nov. 5, 1902, Mr. Paine was unit- ed in marriage in Danielson by Rev. S. 8. Matthews, then pastor of the Westfield Congrégational church, with Mies Agnes Caroline Halliday, also of Danlelson, formerly of Norwich, and previous fo her marriags a teacher in the School street school. They have two ‘children, Janette Mariette, born Aug. 29, 1906, and Mariette Elizabeth, born May 31, 1908. In addition to his widow and chil- dren, Mr. Paine leaves one brother, Al- mond M.

The crop is e of the largest in years and away bevond the bounds of what the gen- eral public had an idea it could be. The Wells peach farm, now operat- ed by the Barnes brothers, has a crop estimated at 10,000 baskets, and other farms in nearby corners of Woodstock will combine an output far in excess of that numt The local fruit and grocery stores are loaded down with baskets filled with the finest kind of peaches and the extra selected fancies are bring- ing only a doilar a basket. Hxcellent fruit is to be had in the same quan- tity for 75 cents. Of course, what local people will use of the crop is only an_insignificant part. The bulk of it is being shipped and the returns will bring the growers big money. Woodstock is becoming one of the best peach growing towns in the state. FOUND ON TRACK. Jossph Obhin May Have Been Struck by Two Trains. Obhin, 39, a woadehopper, a home with relatives in was Jying at the Day-Kim- ball hospital Wedhesday. as the re- sult of an accldent in which he suf- a broken skull, a torn scalp, and & fractured arm Obhin was found on the railroad track by his brother-in-law, George Macdonald, near Clark’s Corners at about 6.80 on Wednesday morning. While this is not positively k n the circum- stances are such as to indicate that Obhin had been struck Tuesday night by a train believed to have been the eastbound Air Line express, known as the Fitchburg special, which reaches Clark’s Corners a few minutes before 9 o'clock. It is possible, also that the passenger train leaving Putnam for Willimantic at 9 o'clock may have hit the man. His condition when found was critical and he was put on the first train_for Putnam, arriving here at 7.30. His chances for recov- ery are mot bright. Obhin has been employed by the Childs Lumber corporation ag a chop- per on the Willis lot at Clark’s Cor- ners, He is unmarried. It was be- lieved that he was intoxicated at the me the accident occurred. CLAIMS BULLOCK STREET. E. F. Whitmore of Willimantic D clares Land Belongs to His Father. Alderman E. F. Whitmore of Wil mantfc was in this city Tuesday eve- ning to appear before the common council to ask for damages on land which he claims is owned by his fa- ther on Bullock street. There were not enough of the aldermen present to hold a meeting, but Mr. Whitmore e plained his position to Mayor Macdon- ald and Aldermen Miner and Brodeur. He sald he came by request of his fa- ther, E. T_Whitmore. who formerly was a resident on Bullock street, and nterest in the streets to oe id out for the sewer. He claimed no d bordering on the streets and said there was very little he owned on Lee streets, but he says Bullock street to the river belongs to his father, and evidently the claims are well founded. My, Whitmore wishes to arrange with the city. believing that the eity would deal fafrly with him in the mat- ter if he turned over the deeds, but he does not wish any contentions even though the highway committee has re- ‘ted that there are no damages or benefits. Frank Montville appeared and said that the city had pald $150 for nothing for land on Bullock street, as there was no real claim established for a part of the street that had been hought. Miss M. R. Hopkins objected to the sewer crossing or coming near her land, but she was informed that the present plans do not show the sewer within 200 feet of her land The council will meet next Tuesday evening WOODSTOCK FAIR.
