tnlCdSO, sept. 20.
With constant talk current that the
government will do something to help
the farmers. wheat moved upward in
price today. helped by strength in the
corn market and by estimates that Flu
ropean purchasing of wheat Yesterday
tailed nearly 100000 bushels. Wheat
closed firm. 1 to lac net higher. De
ccmber 1O5s to LOSS and May 1.10s to
1.10A. Corn finished to 1ac up. oats

to &c lower.
Aside from Washington dispatches
telling of various plans for farm re-
lief and in addition to bullish estimates
of European buying. the wheat mar
ket here was affected by the fact that
Winnipeg prices were firm despite lib
eral receipts For a considerable time
wheat showed greater upward ten
dency than corn. but in the last part
of the day this condition was reversed.
especially after corn and oats both
had surpassed previous high price rec
aggressive selling of wheat became a
bullish factor. as did sympathy with
the strength of corn and oats. although
new export business in wheat today
was said to be light.
All the ccreals-wheat. corn. oats
and rye as well--closed at the top fig
ures with September and May corn at
Il new high price record for the season
and with December oats also at new
high. In connection with the wheat
advance. the fact was pointed out that
at present an emergency change to a
higher tariff on wheat would require no
action by Congress.
Some talk was heard that a seasoned

At the rear of the exhibition hall,
was the poultry department, and in
addition to the poultry, rabbits and

tration of new members began at
Bowdoin college today, followed by an
evening meeting of the recording
committee. which passed on the quail
if1cations Of students who had not
been previously admitted, and on the
results Of examinations taken during
the last few days. Up to IL o'clock
1873 freshmen, IL new sophomores, 1
new Junior and new senior had been
admitted. The record committee still
had large number of applications to
act upon and it is expected that the
freshman class will number about $50
which will bring'the total enrolment
of the college up to about ATS.
This number is somewhat smaller
than last year, being due to the
change in entrance requirements,
whereby 1872 points are required out
OF possible 141a, whereas last year
some students We're admitted with
only 1914 points. This is under the
new policy of limiting the student
body to approximately 500 members.

He spoke briefly of the great ag-
ricultural resources of the State so
well represented at the fairs. and in
closing said: II suppose the Gov
ernor has as many worries as most
people, but I try to meet them and
take things as they come. I shall
certainly enjoy this afternoon as
much as anyone here. I wish to
congratulate the Fair Association on
their splendid work in behalf of the
agricultural interests Of the State of
Maine"
At the close of his speech the
audience applauded Governor Bax-
ter to the echo, and leaving the

spectator during the ensuing events.

Between heats the audience was
kept interested by the Brewer team

displaying some novel effects in the
way of step dancing to the music
furnished by The Dennis Band.
Kenneth Lee, of the Shooting
Stars" introduced novelty in honor
of Governor Baxter by shooting out
waters pasted in solid mass on a
black background in such a manner
that the word Baxter" was left in
bold relief. One of the features of
the shooting act was the breaking of
three nitrogen balloons, released to-
gether, with a single shot, the gun
being held at the level Of the hip.

223 class, for a purse of $3.50. was
