Maine State Fair.

The trustees of the Maine State Agricultural
Society arrived in the city yesterday noon and
commenced their sessions There were pre-
secretary Col. Kicker of Rockland. and
Hight Of Skowhegan. Owing to the absence
Mr. Garcelon of Lewiston, who was unable to
arrive until the midnight Pullman from Boston,
no location was decided upon for the State
Fair. The premium lists have all been
decided and vary but little from those of last
year. The purses for horses, exclusive of colt
stakes, amount to $2,O5O. There seems to be
an apathy on the part of the Portland people,
who are presumed to have an interest in
having the fair held at Presumpscot Park, in
coming forward with offers If the hotel
keepers, railroad men, and all that class who
are benefited by the influx of strangers should
come forward and subscribe the $500 neces-
sary to lease the track, there is little doubt the
Lewiston through Mr.. Garcelon makes flat
tering offers, and our people remain silent,
then Lewiston will be successful.
The feeling on the part of the farmers, as
expressed by Mr.. Hight, is in favor of the
fair. They think the times more encouraging
than last year. Mr. Dennison saws such ap-
pears to be the opinion of the manufacturers
and merchants. If this is so why should we
not have the fair. Others seem to think it
would be better to let the fair go over this
year. One thing is certain. Ir will not be
held in Portland if the expenses of the track
are not subscribed.
There will be two prizes for Maine registered
Jerseys, and American Cattle Club JERSEYS if
the fair is held

Last week the Crumple Cunning Club were
on a cunning expedition at Crumple Island,
off Jonesport. In the fog, and owing to the
heavy sea beating in from the ocean, the
schooner Mary B. Harris, bound for Machias,
grounded ON Seal Rock, May 5. There were
five passengers, including one lady, and they
were taken off in the ships boat by portion
of the crew, who then crossed the island, broke
into the life-saving station and got the surf
boat, intending to take off the rest of the crew.
Luckily breeze sprang up and the vessel was
got off. She proceeded to Indian River and
then returned for her passengers, who, in the
meanwhile, were Hospitality entertained by the
Crumple Club.
Wednesday, May It'll, the schooner Tina was
wrecked on Egg Rock, an account OF which
has appeared in these columns. The idea
seems to prevail that the life-saving stations
are as necessary in the spring and summer as
the winter, for fog and storm prevail and lit is
possible if the station had been occupied the
Zina would not have lost one of her crew by
drowning or the captain been injured.

Damage by Lightning.

Tuesday night from 10 o'clock until 3 the
next morning there was a continual succession
of thunder storms in the Eastern section of
the State which did considerable damage. A
house two miles from Bangor occupied by a
Mrs. Burleigh was struck and Mrs Burleigh's
little child considerably injured. In Orono
the house of a Mr.. Peabody was struck and the
walls and flooring considerably damaged. AT
the State College the hall of the @. T. V.
Society was struck, the chimney demolished
and the flooring considerably injured. AT
Pittsfeld the shingle mill of B. Thompson was
struck and caught fire but the flames were ex-
tinguished before much damage was DONE The
house of D. Winslow in the same village was
also struck and badly damaged. The barn OF
G. NJ. Presher was also struck and slightly in
jured. The barn of A. HI. Rundlett (already
reported) was burned. So much damage from
lightning has not occurred for many years.

night the contestants were as follows: Maine
w. Parker of Saccarappa and NJ. Barry of
Portland. Massachusetts,. Cadger and j.
Edwards of Boston. Rhode Island-B. d
Burns and VIM. Burrows of Providence
Cadger appeared lame, the result of sprained
ankle received, it is said at Music Hall a
couple of weeks since. The men were given
the word "go' at precisely $50 D. m. Burrows
of the Rhode Island and Parker of the Maine
team started off at rapid rate of speed. with
Burns and Barry following at dog-trot gait
At the conclusion of the first hour Burrows and
Parker were leading, each having covered 7
miles and 4 laps, with Barry next with miles
and laps. During the first half of the second
hour Burrows and Parker ran steadily together
but soon after the latter spurted to the front
and soon began to leave Burrows behind. At
the end of the third hour the contestants stood
as follows: Parker, 20 miles; Barry, 10 miles
lap; Burns, Is miles laps; Burrows. IS miles:
Edwards II miles 2 laps, and Cadger II miles
6 laps. In the last half of the fourth hour Bar
ny and Parker started on run, followed by
Burns, who soon overlook the former and pass
ed him. AT the close of the fourth hour Burns
by squirting, was within two laps of Parker,
having gained six laps in 60 minutes. Early in
the first half of the fifth hour, Burns made a
squirt for the lead. After gaining half a lap on
Parker, the latter went off the track. Burns
had gone nearly two laps to the front before
Parker reappeared to give him brush for first
place. After several sponges the latter dashed
around the track at aspirited gait. At the close
of the fifth hour Burns led Parker one lap.
Barry was mile laps behind Parker The
last hour of the race was opened with consid-
cradle excitement. Parker began to squirt to
catch Burns, who labored hard to keep his van
tage. The latter went off the track twice. and
although absent but about minutes returned
to find Parker even with him. For fifteen
minutes each strained every muscle for the
lead, and both constantly changed places. AT
last Burns began to show loss of wind, and
Parker shot ahead, and after making couple
of spins around the track, left gap of lap
between him and his pursuer. Burrows SEEM
ed well used up. At II p M Parker led by 8
laps, and maintained rigid gait. Burrows
left the track for good after making about a
mile, complaining of sore feet. Parker finished
with 26 miles, laps the best record of the
tournament.
