LARGE CROWD SEESSOME FAST EVENTS f ..... . . . First Day's Racing at Eaton Fair, a Success Many Fine Exhibits.
(Palladium Special.) EATON, Ohio, Sept. 27. Presaging the most successful fair In the history of the Preble County Agricultural society, favorable weather and a plethortc attendance marked the formal opening day Tuesday; Made-to-order weather could not have been better and there was a conspicuous absence
of heat oppression that has so frequently characterized events of previous years when they were held on earlier dates. The attendance was greatly beyond expectations, drawn largely by the large interest centered
on the two race events for horses own
ed and bred in the county. The grandstand, while not full by any
means, was wellitaken up by a happy
throng, and theinterest did not flag
until the final bleats had been pulled j
The first race event, a gentlemen's road race for horses owned in the 'county, half-mile theats, was taken in 'three straight brushes by . Ed Brown, of West Elkton, ivho drove Cyclone Bill completely away from his field. The others never had a chance to get to the first money,., because the bay gelding showed the, best form and training. However,, the field, was pretty well bunchted,and the race was a driving event. This was especially true of Shocking Stranger, a fine black mare owned ,by D. Shock, of Gratis, and Elnore, atbay mare owned by Isaac Booker, oMCamden. Shock and Booker did seme tall driving, but t In the finality the former won out by a close shave. Pretty Girl, owned by C. Montgomery, offcEaton, couldn't stir ! up enough speed,, and Reuben Boy, owned by Vernonf Singer of Lewlsburg, seemed entirely off his metal. The last named horaesimply wouldn't race, thereby casting-) disappointment !to the lot dt the ownor and many ad'xnirers. A summary ofthe race, which was won in three heats,, is as follows: f, .' , 8ummary of Events. iCycloheBill (Ed Bowman. ..Ill 'BbocklngfcStranger, D. , 8hock) . 4 2 2 iElnora (lABooker) 4... 2 3 3 iPretty Gial (C.

Time l'.lWM'-iW. I3iift. Ruth Vintell, owned toy E. E. O'Neill, of Eaton, was scratched. The second ewent, for colts three
esting contest, though ltiwns finished In tdo heats. There were four-entries, but one was drawn after the ifrst .brush, leaving the others all with the division of the purse. Special Parole, owned by L. M. Huff,o New. Castle, -Ind., won both heats and the race, though the first positldn was hotly 'ought by the others. Ruth Vintell, owned by Everett O'Neil took second money In two heats, while Nerust, owned by Dr. Marshall, of Dayton, finished third. Cleo Grudge owned by 'Mrs. L. Brown, of Liewisbnrg tail-ended in the first heat and probably allowed the second part of her -name to play a hand, for she was drawn. The summ ary follows. , Special Parole (L. M. Huff) . . 1 1 x

Lew Jack, of Blanchester, reputed to tbe one of the best informed men on tracing and a thorougly square judge, lis doing the starting. He hasn't wastd any wordsas yet, and there is evjcry Indication that he will render a very satisfactory service, both to fhorsement and the public. I Despite, the usual and distasteful fsong of the anvlhchorus, and the conjecture attaching to a slight deviation kfrom the old program, there is every
Indication, weather-permitting, of the
61st annual show eclipsing an us vasi
number of predecessors. The sale of single admission and membership tic
kets Tuesday was equal to, 11 not considerably greater,-than in previous times. Shortly after noon , Tuesday there was a waiting list in front of
the ticket window, indicating, tne ruisome interest attached to the big agricultural schow. Excellent Exhibits. Strolling about among the many exhibits to be seen, one is impressed
first with their vastness and then
their value, both from a monetary and
educational standpoint. There has
probably never been a fair held that bad on show so many specimens of j chickens. The stock consists largely of hiRh-bred stuff, although there
are many specimens of the common
barnyard variety, with an embemsnment of some imported birds. The number of fowls to be seen would make an illustrated poultry journal look like a statistical record, while real life and action takes the place of beautiful inanimates. The exhibits of fruit is a pleasure to the eye and a marvel to the residents of Preble county, who, perhaps, have for years had no knowledge of the fertility of local soil, else have
been carelessly inconsiderate of what bounteouj Nature will do if she only has a chance. Other fruits and vegetables vie with each other for attention and admiration, while the grain crop as shown in some marvelous exhibits commands a particular interest Fine stock is also present in an abundance, and there is a real lack of stall room for the many fine herds out for the ribbons. Horses, born and raised here, are also in line with a promising future, despite the many faster and more inviting buzz-wagons that are offered for sale by local and foreign dealers. Automobiles, which are real palaces on wheels, and which are marvels of palatiality and accommodation, obtain a commanding attention, and there is a probability that many of the moneyed ruralites will place theim at their disposal before the winter's first flurries of snow. Good Featurest Today. The attendance today will without a doubt run far into the thousands. All exhibits will be properly arranged and everything will be going full blast. The track features will be of commanding interest, because three good
road race events are scheduled. A colt
pace, with a $100 purse, is the first, while a 2:30 trot and 2:25 pace, each
with a purse of $300, promise excel
lent performances and a good display of horsemanship. There are already 16 entrlesin the three events, but the number will probably be augmented when the final booking is announced. There are more than 100 race horses on the grounds, and the contests booked' for Thursday appear at present to command the running in relays. The fields are larger than for years. That some will be scratched there is no doubt, but there are enough to compel an exceeding interest. The program of today's races will be found elsewhere in this issue.

UNUSUAL VARIETY OF THE RAT TRAP , Another new and unusual variety ot
rat trap will be put on the market here within a short time, according to
the statement of Edward H. Kettle-
forder, 512 South Thirteenth street.
Kettleforder, through the medium of
his attorney, Robert W. Randle, has just secured the United States patent
on the device and is having it manufactured by a concern in Cincinnati.
In explaining the principle of the
trap, Kettlefcrder, the inventor.
asserts that the main feature of his trap is that the bait basket is shut up in a semi-circular steel cover. This part, fastened to the metal base, is governed by the same spring that releases the catch for apprehending the
t
animal. When the animal enters the trap, it pushes its bead against the bait basket, and thus sets the spring in motion.
Crocodiles and Alligators. The true crocodiles are distinct froaa ' the alligators.

Again, in the crocodile the hind legs have a fringe . of fattened scales which is wanting In the alligators, whose legs are round. London Saturday Review.
