 Delegations of firemen from Union- vile, Southington, Bristol and Forest vile attended last evening and con- tributed considerable towards re- plenishing the company's coffers The canvassers and booth tenders had big night and they turned over a rich harvest of coins to the com mittee.
 During the evening Chief M. A. Norton expressed the thanks of the company for the patro mage given the fair and spoke in an appreciative vein of the liberality shown by those in at- tendance.
 An excellent entertainment was fur nished by the Girls Harmony min strels of Southington. The young l. dies acquitted themselves creditably, both as singers and gloom chasers and their efforts to please met with en- thusiastic applause. The local hits were greatly enjoyed.
 The program tonight is to be fur nished by talent from New Britain. It will be a potpourri of music and comedy contributions Visitors from several towns in this vicinity are ex- pocted to attend tonight.
