NO VOTE ON LICENSE.
Petition Ruled Out Because 1t Failed
 to Contain Date of Election.

Between the desire to bring WilH- mantle, after long lapse of years, from the wet column into the dry, and the actual consummatiOn of that wish there's likely to be a slip or two, and so the citizens who favor the abolition of saloons find this year. A petition was brought out by members of the prohibition committee and their sup porters. a number of copies of it were placed in circulation and signatures somewhat over 250 were necessary were being readily obtained. Then plans went awry. for it was pointed out that the petition was invalid, for the drawers-up thereof had omitted to put in the date of the election. Since it was too late to start out with an- other and a corrected petition for vote on the liquor question, the matter goes by the board this year. Wednes- day, 20 days before election, was the last day on which the petition could be fled. Next year. said temperance worker Wednesday night, the license question is going to be placed before the people of Willimantic in it's proper light.

WOODSTOCK FAIR CLOSES.
Good Attractions for Visitors to the Last-High Grade Horses Q Feature Representative of State Board of Agriculture on the GrOun6s.
Special to The Bulletin.1

Woodstock, Sept. 1.-The shadow of the tragedy of Tuesday hung ever the visitors to Woodstock "Wednesday, the closing day of the fair ard instead of a crowd of more than 5000 there was probably about a fifth Of that number within the gates. Those who came found much to interest them in the special attractions reserved for the last day of the fair.
 Before the noon hour the track ex- hibits consisted of horse entries ard these were watched by a group of 800 or 400 people. Later. as the number in the grounds increased there was a larger number to watch the award ing of premiums and to give attention to other attractions.
 Fernando Wheeler An Official "lsitcr.
 Among those who came to the fair Wednesday was Fernando Wheeler, Stonington. member of the state board of agriculture MT Wheeler's visit was official, as inspector for the bard watching out for undesirable tal ITS, the allowing of them on the grounds being a ground for forfeiting ly the agricultural society of the appropria- tion due it from the state.
 It is understood that MT. Wheeler found no fakir of the forbidden class, what there was of these having been chased off the grounds by the man. agement on Tuesday as soon as an opportunity was given to get line on their games.
 A Clean Snow.
 The society always insists on a clean show and protection of its patrons from games of chance that are not really games of chance, but straight steals and is as little likely as any fair in the state to lose it's appropria- ton from the state on account of ger hitting objectionable fakirs.
 A Financial Success.
 The fair this year is again a finar- cial success. While most of the bus- mess was done Tuesday, when S1,6S5 was taken at the gate, this being SIS more than the largest amount ever previously taken in one day, a con sid erable sum was received Wednesday so the society looks for sizeable tal- ance in the treasury when all of the accounts are balanced.
 Duffer a Big Attraction.
 One of the features well received at the fair Wednesday was the exh:- bition of high school riding by Dufier owned and ridden by Attorney F. W. Hinrichs, prominent New York at torney. who has a summer home at Woodstock Hill Duffer is a beautiful horse and was masterfully ridden. The exhibition consisted of showing con- formation. f1exibiIity (obeying riders legs by pressure). walking, tr0tting, bTidlewise exhibition, singIe-foot wort (gallop. right and left 1eg).
