Great BarrfnSton Fair.

The Housatonic Agricultural Society were very fortunate this year in being favored with pleasant weather on each day of their exhibition. The attend ance this year undoubtedly exceeded any former year. At least 15, 900 peo- pie were in attendance on Thursday. The exhibition in all departments was fully up to former years, with the ex- ception perhaps of articles of home manufacture, and III certain varieties of fruit and vegetables. The apple crop is almost failure this year. Taken as a whole, the fair was grand success. There was splendid display of cattle, sheep and poultry. and fine exhibition of horses. The trotting was spirited, and some fast time was made. We ar ranged with the secretary to send us Q summary of the races and some other items of general interest, but we con- elude he has not found time to attend to the subject for we have not yet heard from him. During the running race on Thursday afternoon one of the horses was crowded off the track, or bolted the the course at least, near the quarter pole, he dashed off the track, into crowd of teams, overturned and broke @ wagon belonging to Mir Frank P Son, of Chat ham Village, N. Y. A long heavy pole lay partly under the wagon, and when the collision occurred this pole was thrown violently around and struck Mir Charles Squires of Salisbury, Conn.,, fracturing his thigh. Dr W. P. Small of Great Harrington, was in attendance at the fair, and immediately went to Mir Squires' relief, and conveyed him to the house of MT M. A. Bristol, where Dr H. P Atherton assist ed Dr Small in dressing the injury. MT Squires is attended by Dr Small and under his skillful treatment is do- ing finely and in 3 or weeks can be removed to his home. MT Squires is an honest hard working man, and ped dles iewelry, and silver ware for a living. The loss of time and the expen- ses incurred by this accident will be a serious loss to him, and 1t is thought some one is responsible for this acci- dent and should be made to pay for 1t. We are informed that the horse was only slightly injured, and the colored boy, Geo. E. Valentine, who rode the horse is not seriously injured.

Pioneer Days.

At a reunion of California pioneers
one told of the times when he iugeed a
washing machine on rs back oven
the mountains, only 10 ind on begin
ming to work that he had been fooled
into buying a machine for washing
clothes. He went into the laundry busi-
ness. however, and in SIX months made
$4,000 washing shirts at So apiece.
Number two said that when be arrived
in San Francisco the Vigilance Com
mlttee were so busy hanging gamblers
and other rascals thai be made $50 a day
manufacturing halters out Of a bale Of
hemp he happened to have. The COM
mittee paid him $100 apiece for the hal
ters. Number three said he was sleeping
on the top floor of ibe Occidental Hotel,
in San Francisco, the first night of his
arrival, when an enormous grizzly bear
entered. and before he could reach his
pistol threw him over, smashed his
spectacles, tore out his false teeth. and
upset his cologne bottle. Then the bear
threw his valise containing his pistols
out of the window. The man he'd moth
ing for defence except a bottle OF SMELL
ing salts. Every time the bear made for
him he gave him a sniff. The bear re-
coiled, roared terribly, and fell back.
The fight was kept up till morning, by
which time the salts were all gone. The
man rang for the waiter and ordered an
other bottle of salts. He was told that
there was only pound in the whole
city. 'Buy it at any price p said he.
Word came that it would cost 81 900.
Just at this moment the band began
playing and the remainder of the third
speakers story was lost. The fourth
speaker said he went on shore fifteen
at San Francisco while the
steamer stopped for whisky-it had |
given out at the bar-and helped hang |
two men. One of them was afterward |
found to be innocent, but he did first /
rate as an example.
