FAIR NOTES.

The English Shire stallion, King of
Trumps, exhibited by Robinson Il Son of
Barre Plains, Mass, was something rather
novel in the horse line. His weight is
stated to be 1885 pounds. He was inn
ported from England four years ago, when
two years old, and has been in the hands
of his present owners less than a year.
This horse attracted much admiring notice
when led upon the track between the heats
of the races on both days.
The same was true of Robinson & Sons
Holstein bull, Arts, one of the most cele-
brated animals of his class in the country.
Crosby d Adams did a graceful thing in
providing the tally-ho for the use of their
guests. The tasteful decorations were the
work of Mrs. Grammar, Mrs. Baker and
Mrs. Holman. The coach is to be per-
manent Brattleboro institution, having
been bought by Mr.. Higgins in North
Adams.
On both days it was conspicuously a
goOd-natured, well-pleased and well-ordered
crowd. The noticeable feature to strangers
was the absence of rum and its effects. A
drunken man was not seen on either day,
and one that even showed "exhllaration'
was so rare as to be counted as part of the
show.
The load of 943S pounds drawn by
Waite d Nichols's oxen in Wednesdays
contest was the largest ever drawn on the
grounds. The final contest was between
two pair of Waite & Nichols's oxen, to
decide the championship between the

and Mrs. Burnett. They were roundly APP
plauled. Each was given souvenir
prize. The judges declared the first prize
for Miss Dalton, the I'd for Mrs Hooker,
and 3d for Miss Walker. Only three pairs
wore entered, and the prizes were awarded
LIST to j. II. Chamberlain, I'd to Mrs. Alis
of Conway, Mass. Mrs. Alls was warmly
applauded as she drove past the grand
stand.
1t was pleasing sight when the gentle
mems driving class came and were speeded
around the track to show their good points
There were IL sleek animals i'm all, and they
showed fine burst of speed. They were
exhibited by o. \. Marshall, j. McQuaile
j. c. Newton, f. NJ. Waite, j. G.. Baker.
Louis IIenkel, j. II. Chamberlain and
Dwight Goodenough of Bratteboro, \. b.
Knapp of Dummerston. A. NJ. Prouty of
Marlboro, w. X. Ware of Chesterfield, VI.
Baker Of Coleraine, Mass, Mr. Wheat and

was awarded to Mr.. Baker. second to Mr..

to steal some from a boy who had worked
hard all summer to raise melons. One of
our largest melon raisers has standing in

all they want, but still these friends per-
sist that stolen fruit is best.

THE TROTTING.

While the time made in the trotting was
not as fast as last year, the races were by
young horses, they were well contested,
and furnished good sport for the thousands
of spectators, who crowded the grand
stand, its approaches on either side, and
all the available space along the fences.

The New York Stock Market.

NEW YORK, Sept. 15.-The aspect
of affairs abroad, which was disturbed
by the Mitylene affair was looking
better this morning, and London,
which was the seller Of all kinds of
securities, became buyer today, and
to that extent has improved the feel
ing here. The feeling in the street
was of q more bullish character than
for some time. The opening prices
this morning were all from Is to 5-S
per cent better, in active stocks, than
they closed last evening.
The bears and those who have been
working for a reaction in order to pick
up cheap stocks made a final assault
upon values in the early trading,
which has of late brought them some
success, and Union Pacific was knock
ed down 7-Sc, but the rest of the list
lost only their opening gains. The
market closed active and strong at the
highest price of the day, and with a
confident feeling that the upward
movement has only begun again. The
advances of note comprise the Atchi-
son and Erie each 5-Sc, Lackawanna
and Missouri Pacific each 3-Sc, Louis
Vile and Nashville l lac, Northern
Pacific preferred 1c and Wabash pre-

Neither man nor horse is pgrn,-

work for temperance and at tie same

There are number of tricks by
clever straightforward performer, the
success of which depend entirely upon
the substitution of sham article for
real one which it closely resembles
1t is to be regretted that in these days
of counterfeits, success is often aimed
at in other departments by very sitDi-
lar methods. Even the human art Of
healing, that of all others should be
free from it, is not exempt, and there
are mock medicines just as there are
quack doctors.
Merit and excellence wherever
found have always had tAeiT inn
tators, and the popular preparations
of the Mansfield Drug Company
have not escaped. The success Of
Mansfield's Magic Arnica Ainimcnt
has led to the introduction of various
so-called arnica liniments, which are
offered in various parts of the country,
especially the southwestern states

than any patient who has ever found
