mediation to the public as hundreds of re-
quests for this accommodation have been
made in past seasons. The seats in he

vded. People living at distance may
write the secretary any time previous TO
dates of the fair and have reservation
made.
A new feature in the amusement line
will be two vaudeville stages, one across
the track in front of the large grand
stand and one in front of the smaller
stand. A large and varied array of vdud-
evile talent has been secured and acts
upon both stages will be given through
out each afternoon of the fair.
The change of policy of reducing the
stake races TO two is working out satis-
fact0r'iy. The two stakes will be one
20 pace, the purse being $1,000, and
one 20 trOt for like purse. The num-
Der of entries already made in these races
is large, % horses being entered for the
first named race and the same number
for the trot stake.
There will be nine other trotting events
carrying purses to the amount of $4,000.
