"Wednesday opened beautifully. The
weather was just cool enough to be pleas
ant, while the streets were still free from
dust. At an early hour, it was manifest
that there had been quite an accession OF
strangers during the night, and by nine
or ten o'clock the arrivals by the trains
and from the country filed the town. At
this time also, the gates at the fair ground
showed busy scene, and the ticket men
a. well a. entry clerks were full of bust
ness.
Promptly at 10 o'clock the exhibition
commenced according to programme, the
first cal! beiu. for Matched Carriage
Horse Half i dozen were brought in,
as fine as one could wish to see. Prince
and Ned, from Chicago, seemed 20 take

tries, and certainly beautiful animals

how the committee can pick out one and
call it the best is the puzzle.

quite a large show, and what is remarka-

FoUIH AND LAST DAY.

The attendance to-day was very good,
although largely behind yesterday. The
sale of tickets at the gate was less than
half as compared with Thursday.
First in order was stations showing the
best five colts But 3 entries and soon
decided. The first premium was given to
Frenchman.
Next came "boy equestrians, in which
there were seven entries. The little fell
lows made a very handsome display. They
were thoroughly put through" and stood
the te-t like majors. The first premium
was given to Master Waterman, of Ottawa,
and the audience, by their applause, rati-
fed the decision of the judges.
Then came Gentlemen Equestrians,"
and we saw some more very good riding;
but what gentleman can't ride ? The rider
of "Buford' took the premium, as much
on account of the splendid horse he rode
perhaps as of his riding, which unques-
tionably was very fine. This used up the
morning.
In the afternoon first business was the
announcement of the awards to the lady
equestrians, and handing over the pre-
miums. We give the awards in their APP
propriate place. The audience generally,
we should say, approved the judgment Of
the committee.
Then came an exciting trot between
four horses entered to contest which was
the fastest gelding or flly in harness. !"
Silas Rich and Mcclellan were first put
upon the track, and Rich took the heat
in 2:4 against 2:56 made by Mcclellan.
Julie and Silkstocking were next put
through, Julie getting around in 2:53 to
Silkstocking in $50. Then Mcclellan and
Julie had it, the latter beating IN go
against $50, and of course took I'd pre-
MUM to Silas Rich lst.
A trotting match followed between Don
levys Pet, entered by j. II. Coilvin, and
Silk Stocking, in which the latter came
out ahead. Then came the hurdlerace-a
failure, and after that the announcement
Of premiums.

picked out to try a second heat The
result, however, did not change their REL
ative speed, Rich making the mile in . a
Tux in go and IT,, other in 2:55.
So much time had been consumed in
this contest, that the balance of the pro-
gramme had to be hurried "Draught
Horses and Thorough bred Stations
were examined, and then there was to be
race between pacing and rackinG
horses, but if it came off ut all it must
have been after shutdown, and certainly
after we left.
The number Of visitors had largely in
creased in the afternoon, SO that, if we
were estimating a political meeting, we
should say there were seven or eight
thousand within the ring. The ticket
men, we fancy, however, would cut down
these figures somewhat
