Annual Fair at WaIIingford - Sec
Ond Day.


The attendance upon the second day OF
the annual fair of the above association
was very much larger than on the first
Every available spot and place in the square
was filed with people and teams, while the
entries were correspondingly large, and the
fair began under such unfavorable clrcum-
stances, can be called Il success. The pro-
cessons of the fire department, graded
schools and invnciblcs. for some reasons
best known to themselves, did not
come off, and save the CUM
matched game of base ball that was
played between the Otter Greeks of Dandy
and the Dcxtcrs of Rutland amusemcnts
were dull, but the time appeared to be
fully taken up in visiting, looking at the
big squashes, pumpkins and potatoes, and
inspecting, the many and varied articles OF
fancy work in floral hall. The principal
display in this department was by A. Hill
& Son of Walingford, who had large as
sortment of all kinds of dry and fancy
goods on exhibition. and 1t really looked
aa though they had taken all Their goods
from the store, but on Glancing into that
no sign of their absence could be
seen. Other articles worthy of notice were
seen in abundance.
At two o'clock Hon. A. L. Miner
was escorted to the grounds by the East
Walingford band, and proceeding to the
speakers stand delivered an able and inter
esting address upon Governmental insti-
tutions and our duties under them The
address was clear, forciblc and interesting
and will bc published in the GLOBE. Ow
ing to the latness of the hour the reading
of the reports of committees was dispensed
with, and a full and complete list of then
will be published in the GLOBE tomorrow
The excitement of the day came off il
the afternoon IN the form of genuine iigh
between two women, Mrs. Green and Mrs
Leonard.
One of them claimed that the other ont
had stolen her dress, and the two meeting
on the ground fun Immediately com
menced, and continued quite lively for
few moments. The woman that claimed
the dress came off victorious, but tore thu
dress so badly that it will not be wortl
much hereafter. The exercises of the day
were closed With a grand ball at the ole
Town Hall, at which some sixty coupl
were in attendance, and all appeared to en-
Joy themselves hugely.
