Of the Season.

Portland. Me-. Sept. 14-At the Grand
Circuit races here, today. Bingen trottod
three miles in 2.oS4. 2.1014 and 2.0SA. These
are the three fastest heats made by a
trotting stallion, this year. and the third
mile equals the best time made by a trot-
ter of Nther sex since he season of 1897
closed. Bingen is owned by ]. Malcolm
Forbes of Boston, and is now the most
promising candidate for first honors in
the Pennsylvania to be decided next
month at Lexington.
The Abbott. which was big favorite
in the class Bingen won, could take MOTH
ing better than third money.
In a match race against Chehalis, Joe
Patchen paced a mile in 2.024, driven by
his. owner, C. w. Marks of Chicago. This
is the fastest mile made in competition
this season.
Joe Patchen is no stranger to the
patrons of Rigby for it was over the
parlor track. two years ago, that he
established new stallion record of
2.03 and although this record did not
stand long. it was a great performance.
Previous to today. he has only started
once. this year, this being at Readville.
when he went mile in 2.02, being
driven by his owner, C. w. Marks, and
this was the fastest mile ever driven by
an amateur, although, today, Mr..
Marks had the pleasure of riding mile
behind the great stallion a quarter If
a second faster.
Egozen. which was an odds on the
favorite for the pacing race, was made to
look cheap when collared by Lady of the
Manor in the last quarter. The Law
clearly outclassed ner field and was
beaten in the third heat by a break. The

READFIELD FAIR
Makes New Record for Second
Days Attendance.
Great interest 10 Baby Show Judges
Have Their Troubles.
Good Racing Throughout Afternoon Com.
Dewey Again ! winner.

Readfield. Me-, Sept. 14-(Special.)-.
The beautiful weather Of the opening
day was duplicated, Wednesday, and
the crowds poured into the grounds un-
til the officers smiled and voted it the
best second day that the society ever
had. Yes. the people come from far
and near. They We're pleased with the
show and were even surprised to see
what big fair it really was. The
show itself was interesting. Something
of interest was going on all the time
and when night came everybody was
of the opinion that one of the best
shows ever held in this part of the
State was now in progress at the Pead-
field fair grounds.
There were plenty of attractions, to-
day. The showing of the prize euuinps
was a feature. The baby show had
the usual attractions of a real live baby
show, and the horse trotting was as
good as any ever seen at the fair. The
track was little slow but the horses
We're fast enough to make up thee diff
erence and the way they did &peed
around the track with all its ups and
downs did the old timer good.
Commodore Dewey was on deck. He
met with a great ovation. The real
commodore was for several reasons I'M
able to attend the fair but his name
sake came instead and he had the best
there was, prizes and ALL
The horse is a favorite wherever he
goes and he shows his appreciation by
winning races. If ne didn't he would
have to have his name changed for the
general public cannot imagine any
thing named Dewey to be ought but
winner.
The ladies race was also a feature
1t isn't anything new but it has the
same interest and uniqueness as it did
the first time it was tried at Pittsfield.
SOME of the old horsemen became al
most jealous, today, to see how much
speed feminine driver can get out of
a horse. The equine seems to like his
gentle driver and so he lets himself out
acts well but goes at a fast steady clip.
There is one fault with the races and
that Is the wait between heats. 1t was
altogether too long, today. Long waits
tend to deaden the interest even of
good horse race and they should be done
away with as much as possible.
The following people were noticed by
The Journal at the grounds. today: Mr..
and Mrs. William A. Reid, Mr.. and
Mrs. E. A. Getchell Mr.. and Mrs. c. r.

THE BABY SHOW.

The baby show was the best thing Of
the fair. There were eight of them.
They all looked alike and the humorous
play, My Boys" was simply outclass-
ed. The young ideas were good look
ing, in fact they were excellent speci-
mems of the past years crop.
Now, for the general individual. the
babies are not the best part of the
show IT'S the fun that they cause.
The one that wins first prize is marked
for life. None of the other fond pas
will ever vote for him for Governor.
A baby show causes lots of trouble.
A man carries a pig to the show.
Whether he wins or not, he generally
keeps his mouth shut. If he doesn't
win he blanes the pig not the judge
With babies it is different. Neither
mother or father can be lead to believe
that any baby in the world is better
looking than their own darling. This
IS not fiction. it is fact. The judges
are upbraided on every hand. Today,
a judge was severely called down by
both father and mother. He was told
that their baby ought to have had the
prize Everybody says SO and it must
be So" said the man, assuming wild,
dangerous look.
But to the babies. There were eight
of them, and they won prizes as fol-
lows: Handsomest baby. Elvie, IL
month-old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Harry Healley of Winthrop; fattest
baby, Harry, 6-months- old son of Mr..
and Mrs. S. A. Gay. Readfield: small

The Burlington's New Train

The Burlington's New Trains
Railroad men who have had the
privilege of examining the four
new trains which the Burlington
Route. on the lst of May, placed
in service between Denver and
Chicago say they are as magnifi-
Gently equipped as any in the
oountry-that even the famous
limited expresses between Chicago
and New York are not handsomer
or more luxurious. Every car is
wide vestibuled, and was built es-
pecially for the Burlington Route.
The four trains are identical in
appearance and arrangement
Each is composed of a buffet
smoking-librarycar, palace sleep
ing-oaf, and two reclining-chair
cars. The buffet-smoking-library
car is something new for Denver
Chicago line. It is a veritable
clubhouse on wheels, where one
may read, write, smoke, talk or
play cards, while travelling at the
rate of fifty miles an hour. 1t is
handsomely carpeted and furnish
ed with settees, cushioned easy
chairs, lavatory, a writing-desk,
. compartment for card-players,
and a well-stocked buffet. The
current periodicals and news
papers are on file, and carefully
selected library is provided for the
free use of passengers. The sleep
ing car is a gem, and the chair
and dining-cars are in every way
worthy Of the train Of which they
form an important part.
The Burlington Route takes
palatial trains through to Omaha
The Florence daily tribune., 1898-08-05

Truths of interest to all cyclists,
horsemen, liverymen, farmers and
everyone else who rides or drives
are contained in the following,
"By requiring wagon owners to
use tires wide enough to limit the
pressure per unit of area between
tires and road surface to an am
cunt which ordinary road making
materials can resist, wagons will
pack, harden and improve roads,
instead of destroying them, and
by making the forward axle short
or than the rear one, by an amount
equal to twice the width of the
tires, the surface rolled will sgain
be doubled. Good wagon roads
are as important, perhass, az good
railroads, if not, in fact, more 80,
and when the public has construct
ed them individuals should not be
allowed to destroy them, especially
when it is a demonstrable fact that
there is no need whatever for do
ing so. Tests have shown that
the wide tires lessen draft as well
as protect roads, and they should
everywhere be required by law"

Grand Review of the Men Under
Gen. Fred Grant.
CHICKANdAUGA, June "a two
days review and inspection Of the First
division of the Third army corps was
begun at o'clock this morning. Gen.
Fred Grant was in command Of the
division, and 5000 men were in line The
inspection was conducted by Gen.
Breckenridge and Col. John Jacob AS
tor
The men showed at their best in the
exercises this morning. In addition to
the review, a number of battle exer-
c1ses were gone through and some diff.
Guilt maneuVerS were executed. Both
Gen. Breckenridge and Col. Astor ex-
pressed themselves as pleased with the
showing made. The inspection will be
continued tomorrow.
The seemingly well-founded report
that Chickamauga is to be the camp
ing ground for $4,000 volunteers during
fthe summer has set the whole army to
talking. The officials refuse to discuss
the report, but it Is believed to be fully
correct.
Gen. Brooke is now spending much
time seeking additional available camp
ing grounds, and lit is generally believed
that he has been notified that the num-
Der Of his men will be doubled. Many
excellent locations are being offered,
and there would be no trouble in ac-
commodating 100000 men If this num-
Der should be sent. There are now A.
000 soldiers at the park, and this num-
Der will be largely increased during the
next few days.
