HOWARD PARK FAIR.
An Immense Assemblage of People
Upon the Grounds.
Unquestionably the Most Successful
Exhibition Ever Held in Vermont.

Opening of the Exhibition - Good
weather ana an AuspiciOus Begin
ming.
The second annual fair of the Cham
plain Valley association and the State
Agricultural Society opened at Howard
Park on Monday, September 10th.
The weather was of the finest that
Eutumn affords. In temperature it was just
right, neither hot nor cold. The sky was
cloud,ess and the park and the magnificent
scenery urIounding ii was seen at its best.
The attendance was not large-a great crowd
could not, of course, be expected on the first
day-but 1t was of respectable size, and gave
fair promise of crowds on the succeeding
days.
In the park many notable Improvements
have been made since last years Exhibition.
For enc thing a spacious tent has been put up
for the exhibition of agricultural implements
an idea which only needs to be seen to be
appreciated. The band stand has been re-
moved to within hearing distance of the
grand stand, and sthe grand stand has been
turned around 50 that all its occupants can
have an unobstructcd view Of the entire
track. Other minor improvements have been
made, and everything has been freshened
and frightened up.

(From the St. Adams Messenger

from the 81. Adams Messenger.l
William II. Bates, blacksmith al High
gate Springs, committed suicide by cutting
his throat, Monday forenoon. Deputy Sher-
iii Sheridan arrested Bates Sunday evening
on charge of bigamy, as he had another
wife living in Lebanon, N. ii. He was put
in the lookup, a room in the town house, for
safe keeping and was to have hearing Mon
day afternoon. Bates claimed that he was
married before, but had left his first wife and
had since learned that she had procured di-
vorcc and was married again, and that he
was not uneasy at all and knew he could
prove his innocence. He was left alone in
the lookup at 10 o'clock, and at noon Sheriff
Sheridan went for the prisoner to take him
TO dinner, when, upon opening the door, he
found him lying face downward and life ex-
tinct-with several long cuts in his throat,
made with common jackknife which he
held in his hand when found.

ganiic land steal involving several million
dollars worth OF United States redeemed tim
Der lands has been discovered The lands
are situated in the northern part of California
and compose the most valuable redwood tim
Der on kthe coast. Applications for poses
sion were signed by dummies Several hun
dred applications of this kind had been filed
with the government authorities here. 1t is
being alleged that government officials are in
collision with the parties engineering the
scheme. If the promoters succeed they will
control II sixth of the lumber supply of the

the fraudulent acquisition of these lands. The
