Fa1r Postponed until Wednesday,, Thurs
 day and Friday,
 In addition to the attractions already advertised the Stafford Springs fair asso- citation has engaged Prof. M. R. Gould and Madame La Roux, who are giving good satisfaction in their balloon ascen- sions and parachute drops.
 The rainy weather Tuesday made 1t necessary to postpone the fair one day. The indications are now that the event will, as usual, be success in attendance as well as in excellence of exhibits. The poultry show Is smaller than usual, but there are some choice birds entered, and this department is we'll worth visit. MT. Reed is at his old place in horticul- tural hall, and when asked what he thought of the exhibits of fruits and veg "tables, he said, II think the exhibition of vegetables and farming produce Is bet ter and larger than usual The exhibit of fruit is very good, considering the diff culty experienced this year in getting any, thing perfect.'
 The merchants have the space reserved for them we'll filled. Among those who have creditable exhibits may be mention ed, B. A. Buck & Co.,, c. H. Baker & Co.,, Anthony Adams, A. W. Kingsbury; Mer- rick, of Monson; Taylor, of Springfield i; Andrews, of Willimantic. The souvenir china exhibit by Anthony Adams is at tracting much attention.
 About the usual number of tents appear on the Midway. Several of the regular visitors are here with their tents, and several new faces appear. The merry-go- round is ready for business, and the prize oxen, owned by J. D. Avery, are on exhi- bition. These oxen are monsters, their combined weight being 6,1OO pounds.
 At the stables all is activity and hustle, so many horses being entered for the races that all the available stable room is taken and several have been obliged to find stalls outside the grounds. The track was not damaged as much by the rain as would naturally be expected, and is in good condition for fast time.
 The banks will close during the after moons of each day, and the mills will shut down to-day and tomorrow.
 The fair association has probably spent more money in attractions this year than ever before, and deserve to have a big crowd of people.
 The entries for the trotting and flat races for Thursday and Friday are as follows:
