THE CONNECTICUT FAIR.
Secretary Snyder Talks About Depart
nent of Farm Produce,

The Hartford Market Gardeners as
sociation at q special meeting in the
board of trade rooms, Hartford. the
ether night listened to a talk by
Porter F. Snyder, secretary, of the Con-
necticut Fair association, who spoke
about the fair and particularly about
the department of farm produce. He
was befroe the meeting to receive sug-
gestions from the market gardeners.
He read the proposed premium list in
their department and received many
suggestions gladly, saying that he was
in the meeting to get information.
w. G. Griswold of Wethersfield pre-
sided and introduced Mr.. Snyder, who
said that the premium list of all de-
parrments of the fair were now in
type, with the exception of that of
farm produce, and then he explained
in detail of the classes and the premi-
ums to be offered in this department.
For the best collection of vegetables,
covering 20 running feet Of space. it is
intended to offer a first prize of $40,
a second premium of $25, and a third
premium of $40. In the corn exhibit
the first premium viii be $25, the Sec
ond SIS, and the third $40.
In the potato exhibit, a first premi-
um of S25 is offered for the best eX-
hibit of potatoes grown by an exhibi-
or, not less that five to each variety,
correctly named. In this exhibit a
second prize of SIS is offered, and a
third prise of SO. There are to be
premiums offered for corn, beans. to-
matoes, cucumbers, cabbage, melons,
pumpkins and squash, peppers, egg
plant, and in fact all of the vegetables
produced on the farm. There will be
individual premiums offered in all
clesses in addition to premiums for the
best collection of all varieties.
Mr.. Snyder said that no entrance fee
was to be charged in this or in the
ladies' department of the fair. He
said that in competition the fair was
opened to the world. The premium
list of the fair will make $50 pages.
Mr.. Snyder said that $4,000 copies are
to be printed and that he had alreaoy
had $4,000 envelopes addressed and
premium list will be sent in each of
these. He said that the association
was not organized to make money for
the stockholders, because there is
bylaw of the association that says no
dividends are to be paid to stockhold-
ers. ANY money that is made goes
right back into the association to build
up the fair.

Hundreds of Letters Written by Elsie
New York. June 2O.-Letters which
may have an important bearing upon
the case, particularly with reference
to Chu Gain, now under arrest, have
been found in the Port Arthur restau-
rant il became known today. There
were nearly two hundred of them, all
written by Elsie Sigel to Chu Gain.
They show that the girl bestowed
terms of endearment upon at least
one other Chinaman besides Leon
Ling. The letters were taken to po-
lice headquarters but their text was
not given out
The finding of the letters from Elsie
to Chun Gain simplifies the case in
the minds of the police so far as mo-
tive is concerned. In nutshell it is
reduced to one theory, that is, that
Elsie Sigel was killed by Leon Ling
through jealousy. She had been
friendly with both men and Chu Gain
had received an anonymous letter
threatening that both he and the girl
would be killed.
