RAILROAD FACILITIES.
They are In Preparation at the
Vermont State Fair Grounds,

Hon. John L. Bacon, one of the Yer
mont State fair commissioners, will have
charge of the State fair railroad this
season as he did last and the experience
he derived in railroading during the fair
of 1907 will be made use of this year.
Mr.. Bacon proved himself natural
born railroad man. His trains were al
ways on schedule time and he handled
thousands of people during the three
days of the fair without accident or
mishap.
He has planned several changes in the
management of the road this season
which runs from the village of White
River junction to the fair grounds.
Additional side tracks are to be in
stalled at the grounds for the accommo-
dation of exhibitors and to handle the
large crowds more expeditiously large
number of turnstiles will be placed at
the exit of the train enclosure during the
fair which comes September 90, %, "A
and %. This will reduce to a minimum
the handling of the crowds that arrive
on the grounds.
Special attention is being given to
entries in all classes by Secretary Davis
these days and he is also devoting much
time to the midway, which will be
many times larger than a year ago.
Some of the latest and most novel attrac-
tions have already been secured and
applications for space are being received
daily.
The reputation of the Vermont State
fair has travelled far and wide and there
is every reason for predicting for this
seasons event the greatest fair ever held

PROVIDES COMFORT.
The Cole CireusisRun Carefully

There Is one feature. and predomin-
ating one, about the Great Cole Broth
ers' Show that will be in Middlebury on
Wednesday, August 10Th, and that is
the care the show takes of its patrons.
Their safety and comfort have always
been foremost in the mind Of the Cole
Brothers. Two ticket offices are estab-
lished on the grounds where lightning
like ticket agents sell at a rapidity
which precludes any thought of long
and tedious waits that characterize so
many travelling amusement institutions.
On the grounds and in the tents are
scattered the most experienced detec-
tives in the country to keep away any
members of the light-fngered gentry so
often found in the towns on circus day.
Every attache of the show is under
strict orders to answer all questions CIV
lily and give any pertinent information
as far as lies in his power. Polite and
discreet ushers are provided to care for
ladies and children unaccompanied by
escorts. The old-time circus seats have
been relegated and in their stead COM
Portable seats with back and foot rests
have been provided. No gambling or
catch-penny devices will at any time be
tolerated. Standing room is never sold
and as soon as all the seats are occupied
the sale Of tickets is stopped. At night
not only are the tents lighted to brill
liancy of sunlight, but the show lot and
streets leading to it are brilliantly illum-
mated. The management of the show
is always ready to listen to any legiti-
mate complaint and remedy any diff
