The other point of attraction was
Mountain park. Here were held the live
stock exhibits, and here also the eeae
men. The photograph man, the knock

and the dozen of other harmless amuse-
ment- which help 10 make country fairs
popular.
LIVE STOCK DISPLAY.
The live stock more than compensated
in quality what WAS lacking in quantity.
1t must not be understood from this that
the display was small On the contrary
it was considered above the average.
The drawing contests for horses and
cattle took place Wednesday morning,
and excited considerable interest. The
list of awards in these contests, as in all
her departments, may be found below.

traction. Then it is that the horse trot-
ting-that noble sport for which Maine
people above all others are partlal-aets
as magnet to draw people in carriages
and on foot up the long hill to the park.
Mountain park, noted for its good
cards and good racing, presented unus-
ually interesting programme, for the far
DAYS, and the fine little track on the
