West Pltlslon, Pa., Sept. 0. The sev
enth uununl fair nnd tacc meeting of
tho Luzerne County Fair association
opened today under discouraging con
ditions. Pain was the principal fea
tute, and although It was not a. steady
downpour the showers came with sut-Jk-lcnt
frequency to keep cvciythlng
In an cxttcmcly moist state. The track
vas tonvcited Into a marsh nnd Its
etlcky, yet sllppeiy surface made the
Gxeiclsc spins of the races more than
a tilde hazai clous. About 4 o'clock a
mlnlatuic hurt leans thieatencd to blow
cvciythlng out of business.
Scranton Is well repiesonted In tho
bpeed derailment. Among the horses
fioin the nioctiic City aie the entries of
C. n. Connell, James J. Muhon, Dr.
"William Ilaggerty, William Koch, jr.,
Gout Be W. Dunn, W. Holies, John Slat
tuiy, C. P. Wcntz and H. S. Gorman.
Thu damp conditions doubtlets prc
entcd many cxhlbltots from bringing
Ihclr nlsplii)s to the giounds today.
Yet theie Is a f ilr showing In the agtl
tulttu.il, hoitkultui.il, fancy woik and
domestic manufactuic departments, all
of which aie In tho main exhibition
hall. This pint of tho fair Is presided
over by Supciintendent P. K. Richards,
unci bis tasteful uiiangement of tho
Mirlous booths Is no small aid to the
success of the exhibits. Tp to almost
dark the exhibits, weic being added to.
THE nXHIKITS.
Among the laigest ehibltois in agri
cultural hall Is A. O. Fainham, of Ex
eter, picsldcnt of the association, who
has a gieat v.uiety of vegetables nnd
farm produce on display, among them
ii new vailety of hubbard squash,
which Is of an old-gold color anil at
tracts attention from those who do
'Know pumpkins."
Solomon Lewis, of Harding, the "ap
jile man," as ho has come to be known
flora his lpgulat attendance at this
fair and his alwajs laige display of
IIvb's fiuoiitc fiult, is again on hand
vlth close to a bundled ailetles of
tipples pears, plums and peaches in
the glossiest and juclost state of per
fection. Mis A. L Townei, of West
l'lttston, occupies consldeiable space
with her showing of picseivos, canned
goods and jellies, about tlnee score of
jars nnd glasses, each containing an
entirely dlffeient fiult pioduct, testl
fjlng to her housewifely skill.
The poult! y building was the real
centie of atti action today. In it theie
are all soits of feathered creatuies,
eclipsing any previous poultiy dis
play; rabbits, Belgian hates and fei
jets on one side, and on the other a
tine bench show. This featuie Is a new
departuie here, and it is a successful
ventuie. The quaiteis originally con
Ftiucted to accommodate choice sam
ples of man's most fullhful friend
pioved to be wholly Inadequate and a
gang of carpenters had to be sum
moned to build more kennels this af
ternoon One of the "taking" featuies
of this building Is h long cage con
taining foutleen feirets, of dlffeilng
ages, from a litter of (he new boin
white ones, the size of mice, to the full
giown rabbit himteis. Several of these
aio Alblnoes, with pink ejes and snow
white fur.
OTHER ATTRACTIONS.
On the outside of the buildings the
nsml attiactions for visitors aie In
jibundance. Yesterday's uiln inteifeied
s-eilously with the getting lead of
most of -the ring-toss and ball-thi ow
ing games. Maui Ice Welch, of Scran
ton, is heie, with his shooting gallery.
A merty-go-iound iiom Pen Aigle is
being put togcthei and tuned up for
the youngsteis. A wheel of fortune is
In handy leach of thos-e with spoitlng
piocivllltles.
A base ball game was scheduled to be
played this afternoon between a team
fiom Simon Long's stoie In Wllkes
K.nie and the Luzeine borough team,
but the diamond would have been bet
ter suited to a game of water polo, and
this featuie vuis postponed.
A den of live snakes under canvns
Js one of tho outside featuies that le
qulies tin admission fee, Inside tho
buildings medlum-sled displays of
photographs, ilowois, neodlewoik, faim
pioduce. painting and drawings will
cause admhatlon. Secretary Saxe lias
woiked h.ud to make this year's (air
a iccoid bleaker, and although it Is
eaily to estimate, It looks as if his
labors will not be In vain.
William Alclen, or Bill," as eveiy
attendant, horseman and fair-goer
calls him, is again In evidence with
has canvas icstaurant.
