OUR FAIR

proved a success. The wegtherwpIs all that
coulgigihopéd duriilgmost of, the week.
The” afternooh ‘tn' ‘ dispersed 'many on
Thursday.a little earlier than they other-
wisdfihld‘th departcd,but few if any
were prevented framintletiding. The offi-
er-ls,--Presitleat, Secretaries, Marshal,
Police and all seemed constantly on the
alert to attend to every detail and have
evor-ytbiug pass ofi‘smoothly and well. We
bare never had a County Fair held here,
where better order was maintained through-
out, or where there was less of an objection
able character resulting from the inevitable.
~ Etuisitleohows and booth stands.
sewers true to theirpledges in regard .to
- j-r‘gambling stands and the viler transactions
‘L\\'lllcli are so apt to disgrace our modern
Agricultural exhibitions. Even on the
..I ‘ racing-Track there was no disorder, noise; or
rowdyism. .
"l‘lle music was the best we ever had and
seemed to have been unusually appreciated,
' as was to have been expected.
Our Bridgeport friends and especially the
Sewing Machine Companies and Mr.IBar-
nttm, did much to enhance the .intercst of
the exhibition. The same should be said at
Daricn and Stamford. . . .
Mn'Collender’s fine herd of cattle and
sheep, with his billiard table. inside, built at _
Stamford, were marked-attractions. . The
Brook Farm products were'also showy and
attractive novelties. ‘ ‘
In the cattle line Mr. Pond, of Milford,
made an exhibit, of superb short horns that
would have done credit to the Royal Agri-
cultural show of England. . ' ‘
The usual difficulties of getting the- regu-
larly appointed committees to serve was
experienced of course, and the customary
disappointments likely to result in cause.-
quence, no doubt met with. Bttt we believe
less injustice has been done in the awards
this year than heretofore. The Fair was a
good one, the attendance very large, and
the people apparently all pleased and satis-
fled. I
From Wednesday’s Fuh- Dally.
C. H. Phillips, of the noted “Brook Farm,”
bad a large and fine case of products of his
laboratory. Camphor, magnesia and wax . of
the purest whiteness, comprise the attractive
commodities in his case.
John Ryan, gardner to Oliver Hoyt, has a.
sweepstake on vegetables as usual. His col.-
lection numbers over a hundred varieties.
He has two in on star watermelons—one weigh-
ing 40 and the other 54 pounds, with musk
melons weighing l4pounds. The 04 pound
watermelon was the largest ever raiscdin Ct.,
probably in New England. He has over for-
ty water-melons on his grounds of over 35 lbs.
weight. It is useless to dilate on Ryan’s
mammoth beets and ‘squasllcs. They “must
the seen to be appreciated."
TEJoseph Gooding, from the Royal. Palace

From Friday’s Fall- Dally.
The show of two, three and four year old
colts was unusually large and the animals
unusually fine. There has seldom if ever
been so close and so fine a show and competi-
tion on colts. ‘ .
’ ..Chas. 0. C. Belts had his famous Earle trot.
.a-
‘ ting mare f‘Dblly,” with her cplt by her side
-—a promising-pair.
Noah Bradley had his grand seventeen
hand colt, on exhibition only.
The finest colt on the grounds was a. two
car did colt from Stratford, named “Dttroc
ambletonian,” exhibited by J. H. Lewis,
Stratford. He inherits from both strains of
Hamblctonian‘ the best trotting blood of Mes‘
sengor. He was fouled Juno 3d, 1873; ls a
rich dark bay; fifteen and a half hands high;
a model of thoroughbred style and structure:
clean, rangy, and though finely bred, has
enormous power in shoulders, loins, quarters
and thighs, with wonderful longleverago and.
wealth of muscle. >
At. one o'clock, Thursday, Barnum was
called to the stand and. made 'one of his hu.
morons speeches which entertained and con-
.vulsed the crowd jammed into the Exhibition
Hall. He concluded by bringing out Hon
Wm. D. Bishop, who retaliated on his perse-
cutor by detailing his modes of raising pota-
toes at' a dollar a piece, and corn at fifty cents
on car. The great railroad President; proved
a fair match for the great showman in wi tti~
cisms.
The races yesterday were good and some-
;what close, some of the horses being pretty
equally-matched. In Class 26, three. minute-
Horses, best three in five, three Horses only
started. .
There were but two entries of double teams
in class 22 or family horses. One was a pair
of heavy 16 hand horses before a. baronche, -
longing to Dunn of the Norwalk Livery Sta-
bles.
There were eight entries of single horses.
‘Dann had a very fine carriage horse, and
Chas. M. Lockwood one. Indeed, all were un-
usually good horses shown in this class.
Notwithstanding the storm last evening
the concert was a. grand success. The large
Halls were quite crowded. If the weather
had been pleasant it is probable that the
buildings would not have been large enough
to accommodate the audience. The music
was exquisite. The Band will play again
this evening, when our people will have the
last chance of hearing it during the Fair;
The attendance at the Fair Thursday after-
noon w'ns immense. A storm, came up about
4 o’clock which scattered the crowds in every
direction, and fairly packed the Exhibition
Halls.
It was estirnated that there were from eight
to twelve thousand people on the grounds
yesterday and frorn three to four thousand
vehicles.
The nobbiest “turnout” on the grounds
was the jaunting car and yellow bay of Mr.
Langdon. - .
From Saturday’s Fair Dally
Mrs. Woodwardls gardener brought up a
very rare plant, in full blossom ,Friday mor-
ning. It is known as the ‘_‘Dovc Plant,” or
"Flower of the Holy Ghost," a native of
Panama. The blossoms are pure white, and
nestling in the center is something bearing
a resemblance to a white dove. The gar-
dener thinks this is the onlv plant of Ithe
kind in,the United States. It certainly ts a
great novelty in this vicinity. ’
N. W. Bradley exhibited his very fine 3
your old colt. I" ‘ ‘
Sherwood and Wilson exhibited their re-
nowued stallion Bismarck on the track to the
admiration of the crovfd in attendance.
The Phoenix Carriage Company of Stam-
ford have ‘a neat anti well matle‘Phaaton
buggy on exhibition. It came late, but was
a welcome addition to the carriage Depart-
ment of the exhibition nevertheless. The
show of vehicles was larger than any form-
cr yeatxand most creditable to the respective
manufttetories. ‘
‘ The Base Ball Tournament.
' The games opened Friday morning,.thc
Independents of Norwalk playtng the first
game with the Rip Raps of Westport. Tile
Independants won, but the score, 6. to 4, ts
very creditable to both clubs and shows
that the game (six innings) must have been
well contested. . '.
The second game was between the Secret-
Seabury’s of Stamford, and the Old Well
Club, resulting in favor of the former by a
score of291011. . '
Of the final game we. have nopatiencc to
speak. The high figures of the score show
that it was not much more than a third-rate
muffin match. And yet with all the bad
playing and loose discipline—or rather no
discipline at all,—~tllerc were some good
points. The game occupied four long and
weary hours, and resulted very strangely.
On the start the Independents played with
some spiritpntl in the first four innings fair--
1y ran away from their opponents, scoring
20 to 9. It' seemed utterly useless for the
Stamford boysto play any longer—but, it is
never safe to bet on base ball: A lethargy
seized 'the Independents, the dispirited
Stamford boys picket] up and eventually
won the game 88 to 30. The Independents
made a good spirt at the end, but too late.
Both clubs played miserably,changed posi-
tions constantly, and showed lack of proper
spirit. Both catchers were used up and unfit
for play. :The Seabury pitcher and catcher
were both familiar with each othersplay,
and far surpaSscd their comrades in ability,
—-playing much better than usual for
country amatIeurs. . . . . . I .. . I

The fact that an election for town officers
is soon _.to occur, however, has not been
entirely forgotten; Thct'corncr politicians
are busy discussing the merits of probable
or available candidates, and “Patriots who
desire to serve their country by accepting
office are becoming numerous." Of this
number maybe included ' those who have

‘think there is nothing absurd in the propo-
sition to elect tncn who have served two or
three years as town officers anti legislators,
without opening their mouths against any
abuse, or proposing any reforms. It is
hoped that it will be possible to find some

people, and undertake to see the. interest of
all represented at least occasionally, by a
