The fact that the track would be in
bad shape at Gravesend to-day no doubt
caused many owners to refrain from
making entries. The fields in several of
the races are very light. and scratches
may further reduce them. The special
race between Clifford. Henry Of Navarro
and Banquet does not appear on the
card, and has probably been declared
off.
The Willow Stakes and the Brookwood
Handicap are the features to-day. Only
Sir Excess and Patrician are named as
starters in the latter. and they meet at
practically even weights. Sir Excess is
improving steadily and he should beat

In the department of dairy products the
number of entries in the butter exhibit fell
short but the quality of the product judg-
inc from the scoring was superior TO that OF
any previous year. The flavor, however,
was the point on which the scoring was
not quite up to standard, owing, no doubt,
to the long continued drought. In class l,
box dairy, there were II entries and in
class ?. dairy prints, - entries. j. A.
Alexander of Gulford secured SO points in
the exhibit of dairy prints, winning first
premium in the class, and securing the
dairy sweepstakes and Pierce's grand sweep
stakes. This was the highest score made
in the butter exhibit.
In class 8, creamery tubs, there were
four exhibitors, Mortified, Mass, Wells
River, Montague, Mass, and the Spring
field, this state, creameries. Glass 4,
creamery prints, had five entries, the Deer
field Valley of Wilmington, Windham
County of Newfane, South Peacham and
East Ryegate creameries and r. F. Jones
of Ryegate. In class 3, the Mortified
creamery took first premium and the Deer
field Valley secured first premium in class /.
The creamery sweepstakes were divided
between these two creameries, each scor-
ing % points. For some reason the Brat
tleboro creamery did not make an exhibit.
There were twelve exhibits of choice
cheeses. Mrs. NJ. b. Fuller of Springfield,
this state, secured first premium on both
dairy plain and dairy sage, and won the
sweepstakes over all exhibitors Mrs. Full
Ter is a women 30 years old but during the
past season has made 12S cheeses. The
cheeses entered by her here each scored %
points. Louisa Green showed some nice
cottage cheese both plain and sage.
One thing noticed last year in the de-
partment was apparent again this year,
the wide territory from which exhibits
were drawn by the reputation OF the Val
ley Fair.

SUPERVISORS REPORT.

The Phoenix is indebted to Hon. Homer
GOodhue of Westminster West for an
early copy of the biennial report of the
supervisors of the insane. In opening the
report speaks of the pleasant relations
which have always existed between the
supervisors and the officers of the Bratte-
boro Retreat, and of the careful monthly
examinations which are made of that in
stitution. During the past biennial term
20 patients have been discharged by the
supervisors, IA of them conditionally, aud
six Internationally. The restraining in
tluence of a conditional discharge. under
which the patient knows that he is liable
to be returned to the Retreat. is illustrated
by incidents given. The supervisors are
more and more impressed with the yaue
of moral treatment of the insane, meaning
br this their general care, occupation and
amusement In this direction the Retreat.
with its park, farm. and summer cottages.
has resources hardly equalled by any other
institution.
The diligence and faithfuluess of the Off
GERS of the state asylum at Waterbury are
recognized, and the only drawback to the
highest usefulness of that institution is
found in its overcrOwded condition The
supervisors urge that this should be imme-
diately remedied, either by its enlargement,
or 10y caring for less patients.
In paragraph given to Dr.. Clark :

praise is bestowed

MISS FEReUsoN's ADDRESS.

An exceedingly interesting service was
that held Sunday evening at the Conrrepa-
tional church, when Miss Ferguson of
South Africa told the story of the Hu,ue-
not seminary at Wellington, near Cape
Town, the Mount Holyoke of that country
The colonists are of Dutch. French HUI
guenot, and English descent, and are a
very intelligent class of people. Twenty
years ago Rev. Andrew Murray of the
Dutch Reformed church, who had become
deeply Interested in the work of Mary
Lyon, the founder of Mt. Holyoke semi
nary, conceived the idea of establishing a
similar school in his country. and letter
written to those in charge of Mt. Holvoke
was handed over to Miss Ferguson. then
visiting the school, with which she had
been formerly connected. At that time
she had been for 10 years engaged i'm mis-
sion work in New Haven, Conn. The re-
suit was that Miss Ferguson. accompanied
by Miss Anna Bliss, went to South Africa.
and at Wellington established the Hugue-
not seminary, which has done wonderfully
successful work. From the school 500
teachers have been sent out, among them
40 missionaries. Several branch semina-
ries have been founded, and the original
school lately elevated to become a college.
The English government has recently given
s23,OOO to enlarge the school, provided an
equal amount can be raised bv the colon
lists. Ii is for this purpose that Miss Fer
guson visits the United States Her ac-
count of the school and its work was list
ened TO with the closest attention by the
large audience, who felt the charm of Miss
Ferguson's attractive personality as well as
the interest of the story she told. She is a
woman of deep spirituality and consecra.
ton, and has been a power in the work in
South Africa. The service was union
meeting, and Mr.. Day was assisted in the
opening and closing exercises by Rev. F.
j. Parry and Rev. DR.. Geo. Leon Walker.

Sheriff Starkey was called out at this
morning to arrest c. Z. Cook. Mr.. Phet-
tleplace, who lives near o. l.. Miners, was
aroused by hearing a noise in the cellar.
and investigation showed that Cook was
at work there, saving wood. Cook went
to o. l.. Miners, where he was given
breakfast, but when Mr.. Starkey came
little later to bring him TO the village he
had skipped" Cook is the man who
has been selling vegetables which he prob
ably stole, who has entered houses where
he found the doors unlocked. and performed
other acts that show him to be of unsound
mind. He came here from Brandon and

her married life was in Halifax, but in 1881
the family moved to BrattlebOro, where
Mr., Harris has been employed by S. A.
Smith d Co. Mrs. Harris was a member
of the Baptist church, uniting in 1882 by
recommendation of the Townshend church
of which church she had been a member
since 1853. She was an earnest Christian
woman, interested in every department of
church work, and by her sweet and gentle
spirit endeared herself to a large circle of
friends. Mrs. Harris was also interested in
the work of the Relief corps, having been
a member of the local branch for many
years. She was an invalid for the last four
years of her life, but during this time ex-
emplited by her patient suffering her
quiet and submissive spirit. Her husband
and an only son, Alison L.. cashier and
bookkeeper at the Farmers and Mechan-
les exchange, survive her. The funeral
service will be held at the house tomorrow

Mr.. and Mrs. Hollis H. Burnett were the
third couple in Esteyville to be victims of

of rattan rocker. centre table, table
scarf and china. p. S. Chase made the
presentation speech and both of the reci-
pients responded. After a Jolly time, dur

when some of the young people will give a

MAPLE GROVE FARM EXHIBIT

The exhibit of J. Q. Frost d Son of
Vernon amply sustained Mr.. Frost's repu-
tation for doing nothing by halves. In va
riety and in the aggregate number of ami
mails and birds entered this was the largest
individual exhibit The herd of thorough
bred Jerseys numbered 20 animals, old and
young. The bull Bromus of Vernon, the
head of the herd, and which his owners
claim TO be the richest and best bred Jer-
sey bull in America, traces five times to
Coomessie, l442, seven times TO Yankee,
1908, twice to Eurotus, 24S4, and eight
| times to Alpha, III. The inbred bull.
Prince of Pontiac, dropped April Q, 1898,
sire Kyle Prince, dam Fedossie of Vernon,
47035, took first premium. In the herd
were recognized several of the cows which
were fully described two years ago, among
them Sultana Fancy, %, with a record of
% pounds of butter in seven days.
A herd of II Horned Ddeset sheep and
lambs was shown. Two years additional
experience has confirmed Frost & Sons
good opinion of this breed. They are
heavy wool producers, unequaled for NUT
ton, prolific breeders, and very valuable for
crossing with other breeds.
This year, as two years ago, their pens
OF small Yorkshire swine attracted favora-
bic notice.
In the poultry department Frost ~ Son
entered upward of 400 birds, besides a long
list of novelties whichincluded Canada wild
geese, native wild ducks, Toulouse geese.
Muscovy and Pekin ducks. White Holland
turkeys, guinea fowls and pigeons.

History of the wild Geese.

The flock of wild geese probably attract
ed more curious attention than any other
outdoor exhibit. They were shown in a
large wire-netting pen just outside the
poultry building. and numbered 26 birds.
Seven years ago Minnesota farmers boy
found nest of wild geese eggs in the edge
OF Lake Minnetonka. He took th-m home
and put them under a hen, where two of
them Matched, both birds proving TO be fe
males. Mr.. Frost saw them while on A
visit there and bought them. Later he Sc
cured gander which had been shot at and
wounded in flock of wild geese. The
wings of the three birds were clipped and
they were given the freedom of a bog en-
the Vernon farm, where they have bred.
The increase is slow as each female laws
only four TO six eggs in year. Two or
three years ago two birds out of passing
wild flock joined the domesticated birds
They were decoyed into the barn. captured.
and their wings clipped, and in this way
fresh blood was introduced. The general
color OF the geese is brown, with yelIowish-
gray and brownish-gray under plumage.
Their bodies are smaller and trimmer than
those of the domestic geese and they are
very muscular.
