Close racing featured the second day's card at the New London county fair on Tuesday. ~The feature event of the day proved to be the 2.2¢ trot for a purse of $400, which was won by Miss Prim, black mare, owned by W. H. Hall of South Willington, Conn, after four heats. Barron's Belle, roan mare, after taking the first drew sec- ond place ii the second heat, fourth in the third and second in the final, landing second money. Evelyn Rae Watts took third money and Joseph C. Patchen, bay gelding, took fourth money. The first heat was close, Bar- ron’s Belle winning by inches over Miss Prim, who pushed the leader hard in this heat. The next three heats were also close, the field being well bunched until the stretch was reached, when Miss Prim swung out in front and came under the wire a winner in each heat. The 2.14_trot"proved to be an inter- esting and close race, although the time was slower’ than the class called for.

Perhaps the event that furnished the! most amusement at the ground on Tuesday was the ox race staged under the direction of Daniel Connelly. An ox race sounds about as exciting as a funeral but the one Tuesday was a riot of fun from the moment the beasts.ap- peared on the track until they disap- conclusion of the heat. The object of | the race was for the contestants to driva their vokes of oxen onto the track, take off their vokes and then at the tap of the bell yoke them up and drive them once around the track, the first one under the wire winning the money. There were three entries for this race, Carl DeWolf, W. B. Blacker and M. Brokoff. The minute the oxen ware let loose the fun start- ed. One yoke stood as if hitched but the other two vokes started out to view their new surroundines. The pair belonging to DeWolfe got away to a zood start, In fact such a start that the drjfer was unable to keep pace with them wnd had a lead of nearly a quarter of a mile before the other two runaway pairs were yoked and started on the track. One pair after going a short distance shed the yoke and did the distance single file while the driver of the last pair grab- bed the tails.of his beasts and drove well with the first pair until they de- cided on the back stretch of the track that they wera going the wrong way up until he was in the lead before the driver of the wayward beasts had got them back on the track but he was far from the wire and oxen are not re- linble racers. He soon lost his advan- tage and managed to come unMer the wire for second money. The fat and joily announcer, Eddie Connelly, gave out the time as 2.06 1-4 but the audience thinks that Mr. Con- 's” watch must have been wrong f8r those beasts certainly did travel and surely & world’s record in this sport was set. DeWolt was first, Blacker second and Brokoft was dis- tanced. Right after the oxen race James F. Dunn one of the heroes of y Ridge spoke to a laree audi- ence in front of the New T.ondon Ship and Fngine Company's tent and gave the people a message from the boys over there.

An interesting visitor to the grounds Tuesday was Henry Tyler, a veteran of the 26th Regiment now a.resident of New London, who attended the first fair of the agricultural society held on what is now Chelsea Parade, %4 vears ago. He was 12 years old then and accompanied his father, Henry C. Tyler, and his sister Olive, now Mrs. A. H. Stevens, of Canter- bury, near Brooklyn. Mr. Tyler, who is a native of Griswold, recails that the Brst fair had no races, and that there were speeches by Frank Trum- bull, of Stonington, ~Rev. William Clift, of Stonington Point. Dr, Baton, the Norwich druggist, and that J. P. Barstow was chairman of the da¥'s exercises. At later, fairs, Mr. Tyler recalls there were balloon ascenstons, wit- nessed by big crowds. Potato Competition For Sta In the competition for the state prize of $30 for the best ane-half Lushel of potatoes, contingent upon winning at the local fair, there were five entries Tuesday, Allen Latham, of Norwich, competing with “Norwich Seedlings,” Supt.
