JAY M.SHEPARD succeeding ELMORE & SHEPARD WILLIMANTIC FAIR--SECOND DAY Rain of Wednesday Afternoon Prevents All Racing—Balloon Ascension Impossible—Other Attractions Postponec?—— 4,000 on the Grounds When Storm Broke. Rain, torrents of it, in showers that came at short intervals all Wednesday afternoon, spoiled the second day of the Willimantic fair. No racing what- ever could be run off, the balloon as- cension was impossible, and the down- pour disrupted all the rest of the pro- gramme of attractions that the man- agement had arranged for the big mid- dle day of the fair. It was decided to hold all the horse racing today, and the five events, including the two $1,000 stake races and the three $300 purse races, will be started at 10 o’clock this morning. Prospects of Big Day. Just before the starter was about to call out the horses for the first heat in the 2.19 $1,000 trot, with the stands and the grounds filling with a crowd that seemingly was to make the day a record-breaker for the fair people, the storm broke. It had been hot and sul- try all the morning, but the sun was out and people from far and near were streaming toward Horseshoe park. The American Thread company and o'ther big factories of the city had given their employes a half holiday, the schools of Windham had closed for the day, many of the business houses of ‘Willimantic had temporarily suspended activities, and from the surrounding towns hundreds of people, by motor cars, carriages, trolley and on_foot, were on their way to see the sights of the fair. Four Thousand on the Grounds. Over four thousand visitors had passed within the gates, the track in- closure was filled with automobiles, the midway was thriving, and the grandstand was crowded with people who were just settling down to see the fast brushes that the three big races of the afternoon were sure te bring. Then came the rain—and everything was off. A few scattering drops gave people a chance to make for the grandstand and the exhibition bulldings and to get their automobile tops up, but hun- dreds were caught out in the pouring rain. Dozens of piquant holiday hats remained so no longer, after a few minutes of rain, scores of white frocks became bedraggled and muddy as their ‘| owners tried more or less successfully to find a spot of ghelter. It was not a place for white shoes. Crowded Grandstand. The grandstand was a particularly inviting place of shelter—at first. Hun- dreds of men and women were con- gratulating themselves on finding such excellent protection. Then a smart wind blew down from the north and sheets of water deluged the people in the front of the stand. A few minutes later the wind reversed its direction, and the crowd up in back got their dose. Finally it began to leak through the cracks in the roof, and everybody almost was getting a share. Sngne of the more gallant among the men took off their coats and wrapped them around the ladies. Most of the people decided to grin and bear it. A few started to leave the grounds, but be- fore going far they were caught ' In another heavy shower. And the show- ers kept coming regularly ail the after- noon and evening. It was most dis- couraging for the fair management, the midway men, and for the.visitors. Sharp, vivi@ chain lightning, fiash~ ing all around the grounds, led its errors-for the more timid of the wom- én in the audtence and many braved the rain to flee from the stands'to the ‘exhibition bulldings, where, not seeing it, they felt much r, In the main exhibition hall the wind drove the rain through the open windows, and tho midway in general was pretty weil soaked. Some of the showmen made Y —— Many Driven from Home. Every year, in many parts of the country, thousands are driven from their homes by coughs and lung dis- eases. Friends and business are left behind for other climates, but this is costly and not always sure. A better way—the way of multitudes—is to use Dr. King’s New Discovery and cure yourself at home. Stay right there, with your friends, ahd take this safe medicine. Throat and lung troubles find quick relief and health returns. Its help in coughs, colds, grip, croup, whooping cough, and sore lungs make it a positive blessing. 50c and $1.00. Trial bottle free.

WEBSTER, Treasurer, good by selling protection in their tents from the storm, but on the whole the rain kept their profit account small on Wednesday. Track Like a Lake. The track was like a small lake in places at the end of the first heavy shower, which lasted nearly half an hour, but Supt. C. E. Macfarlane and some of his men epened up gutters | and ran the water off. Still it was extremely muddy, although a goed sun this morning will put it in fair shape for today’'s five races. Made the Best of It. In the interval between showers several of the stage attractions were given. Wheeler's American band stuck to its post through everything and its snatches of melody had a cheering ef- fect on the rather wet crowd marooned in the stands across the.way. Louis Tobin gave a couple of strongly ren- dered solos, the rain driving him off the platform, but not quenching his voice. The Ross trio repeated their excellent bag punching act. Bill Collins an Attraction. Bill Collins of Westerly, the former Central Village wrestler, was breught ofl for a catch as catch can match with Walter Gould of Greenport, L. I. - The former showed better form and pinned his opponent without trouble. He got the first fall on a head scissors holl in 4.30 and the second and winning fall in 5 minutes more. The East Hampton Fife and Drum corps in thefr brilliant uniforms at- tended the fair Wednesday and gave a programme in exhibition hall during the rain. Games of Chance Taboo. In regard to games of chance with money prizes, the fair association is maintaining a new standard this year in following out the terms of the agreement recently made at Hartford with the State Agricultural associa- tion. Secretary Harvey found one man ‘on Wednesday who was about to op- erate a three card game, but he was requested to cease or move on, and he gave no trouble. The police have had no disturbances to quell at the fair grounds, with the exception of the fight between drivers Tuesday. * In the horse department Wednesday, where John 8.
