w. K. Clifford of South Paris showed

FEEDING THE PEOPLE.
Dividing the crowd more evenly than
usual on the second and third days
avoided some OF the crush usually found
at the eating places at the dining hour
on the second day, and made 1t easier to
handle that feature, 30 that all were
served comfortably. The Congregational
society of South Paris, the Congregational
society of Norway, the Universalist Good
Cheer Society of South Paris, and num-
Der OF private parties, ran their usual
eating places, and the Methodists OF
South Paris hired the eating house of
the Norway Universalist society and
served bean dinners there. Light re-
freshment wonders of all kinds, and
those who served light beers ION the in
side," were as numerous as ever.
| PARADE OF STOCh'
A little late as usual the parade of
premium stock proceeded around the
track Thursday morning. Following
platoon of uniformed police was the
Lewiston Brigade Band, then the officers
of the society in carriages, and then the
stock. Marshal Fuller of the horse de-
partment and Marshal Penley of the cat
tie department rode ut the head OF their
respective sections of the parade. There
were between forty and fifty horses, and
over a hundred cattle. These may not
seem like large figures, but 1t Is to be
borne in mind that most of the herds 90
home Wednesday night. 1t is certainly
fine lot of stock that shows In the
parade.

or four each day. On account Of the rain,
the track Wednesday was rather heavy,
but it was better on the other days.
