The racing at the fair grounds
Tuesday afternoon was the attrac-
tion of the day. In the 2.1S class
the race between May Girl, owned by
Clark & Patterson, and Bonessa,
Daniel Gibson's fast stopper, was
very interesting. 1t was as nice a
race as has been witnessed and it
required four heats to win the race.
In the first race-the 2.4O class
there were five entries. Brownie
Wilkes, owned by Robert MacMul-
len, Olyphant, won the race, secur-
ing first money. Second money was
won by Bill Dorado, owned by Jud-
son Bunnell, Clarks Summit, and
third money by Lady Chimes, John
Murray, Forest City. Star Actuary
and Antoinette, owned respectfully
by George Sherwood, Jermyn, and
Lewis Howell, Uniondale, got fourth
money, it being divided evenly be-
tween them. The results of the

Two Honesdale horses won FIRST
money and one second money at
Wednesdays races. Although the
interest was not quite as keen as
Tuesdays trotting, the horses in the
2.23 and 2.15 classes attracted the
attention of a number of lovers of
that sport. Town Directly and Win
ME Lou carried three straight heats
in two races. The 22S class, purse
5000, trotting and pacing, had four
entries. The summary; 80. r.

After the last heat of the 2.15
race, Starter German, Scranton, an
nounced from the grandstand that
the races for Thursday had been de-
clared off; that the vaudeville and
other attractions would be in oper-
alton but there would be no races.
Wednesday was the largest day
at the fair, it being estimated that
there were 5000 people upon the
ground.
Everybody had a good time We'd
nesday. One of the features to de-
tract from the pleasures of the day
was a pugilistic encounter between
two patrons of the fair who were
feeling pretty good. One of the par
ty was locked in box stall, which
served as a prison for the disorder
ly man.
G. d. Fortnam was awarded the
following prizes on his fine herd of
Holstein cattle: First premium on
herd, first on yearling bull first on
full-age COW for milk, first and sec
ond on two-year-old heifer, second
