Mig Exhibition at OLD Orchard Opens
Next Week.
ESPECIAL TO THE PREss.l

Old Orchard, August "a. TENTS are go
ing up, the finishing touches added to the
new exhibition hall, stables ana cattle
sheds, and extra crews are working night
and gay to get ready for the New Eng
land fair, which is to open at the Ola
Orchard kite track, next Monday.
The park has undergone great change
in the last few weeks. The new exhi.
bition hall, which win be devoted to the
display of fancy articles and products OF
the farm, is 100 feet long and 90 feet in
width. The space under the grand stand,
which was formerly devoted to stalls, has
been fitted up for the poultry show and
agricultural implements. Four large
cattle sheds, two horse sheds and two
long rows of sheep pens have been built,
and the prospect is that they win be
filed next week, as the stock entries to
date number more than 1000.
The Hood stock farm of Lowell, whose
fancy stock COWS were a feature of the
fair at Rigby, put up its tents within
the Enclosure today. Slater big feeding
tent was also raised today. Many of the
horses have arrived and the stock trains
are expected to put in an appearance to-
morrow. Nine fast classes have filed
and there viii be racing every afternoon
during the fair. An uncovered stage is
being built beside the Judges stand, ana
vaudeville, minstrel and acrobatic shows
and an exhibition of trained dogs will
be in progress between heats The ''mid-
way" is expected to eclipse the feature of
the Rigby show of two years ago.

Anaconda PAGES a Mile in 2O2 IL
in 2O4 Class.
Defeats Frank Bogash
by Narrow Margin.
Once Great Arion Brought Out
After Six Years. Retirement.

Boston, August 24.-The grand circuit
meet at keadville closed this afternoon
with the notable feature~ OF Anaconda
the gelding owned by the East View
Stock Farm at East V lew, N. Y, pacing
mile IN 2.O2k, thereby winning the
2.04 class and defeating by a very narrow
margin Frank Bogash and Searchlight.
The figure breaks the ReadvIIle track rec
ord of 2 9414 made in a race, lowers Ana
conda's record by ~ seconds, and with
the exhibition mile by Star Pointer of
1.5914, places Readville at the head of fast
tracks. The new record was unexpected
~ made and 1t was entirely due to the
desperate efforts of Golden and Mccarthy
to out-drive D1cHenry because Of a very
close first heat. Anaconda was the favor
ite but the public backed Frank Bogash
and Searchlight.
The other great race was the 2.08 trot
IN which Arion, owned by J. Malcolm
Forbes, was brought out of retirement
after six years and sent up against
Charley Herr, the gamey winner of the
Massachusetts, stake last year and Graf
ton Boy, the great horse from Macon,
Ga. Arion was speedy in the first heat,
but fell down badly in the second and
then was drawn, leaving Grafton Boy
and Charley Herr to fight out royal
battle IN which the Lexington horse won.
These two events furnished enough sport
Ia themselves, but the II trot and IA
pace gave equal satisfaction, despite the
fact that the latter went in straight
heats.
The 2 u class was split, but in 1t the
remarkable driving of Geers brought him
a grand ovation. York Boy, owned in
Reading. Pa, won the event, due really
TO the unfortunate breaks of Temple
Wilkes and Onward Silver. the supposed
favOrft5 Dollade Wilkes, ha Ing no show
whatever. The 2. IA event went to the
New York horse, Stacker Taylor, with
comparative ease. for 1t was shown that
this PAGER is a good deal faster than the
class.
