Sen. Charles A. Hagerty and proseeutin. atty. Samuel P. Schwartz, lending leual lights, were betting two bit piece on each heat. Sen. Hagerty won a quarter. Many a child's allowance for the purpose of seeing the fair found its way into the hands of the proprietors of one or another of the games at the fair grounds yesterday. Youngsters hardly able to lift a howling ball were trying in vain to knock over the pin. while children who couldn't add above two and two were falling for the "roll the marbles" game. Something like $15i changed hands within 1 0 feet of the judges' stand yesterday as the result of the activities of a professional bookie, who was offering all sorts of od 1 on the outcome of the different heats The bicye'.o race scheduled for the iiiormc.g was put on under difficulties.

Cullon was hobbling around the stables Tuesday on crutches, telling his many friends about his accident at Goshen last week, in which he sustained injuries which will keep him out of the game for some time. Cullon was thrown from his sulky in a pacing race when his horse was forced to "go over the top" of a horse which broke badly just in front of him. He has a badly strained leg and several cuts and trashes on his head and face. He was to have piloted Ilaron Watts and othe. fast members of the Ready string here, but arrangements are lein made to secure a sutstitJte driver for the events in which the Heady horses are entered. out of practice at speeding, for none of them finished "in the money.
