AN ATTRACY IVE PROGRAMME•
Interesting Gann a, Itacea and Contests—
Splendid AIu c—Over 3000 People
on t e Grenade.
The efforts o the Wingham Fire
Company to prov e a day's enjoyment
on Monday last vivre successful in briug-
ing a large numb( r of people to town,
and a safe estima e places the number
who spent the da - here at nearly four
thousand, The sly incoming trains
each brought t it quota from the
neighboring town and villages, and al-
most every avaira le space was occupied
by vehicles, indio ting that the people
from the surro ding country were
present in large umbers to enjoy the
day.
The morning h oke somewhat cloudy
and threatening, ant the rain kept off
well until about ,hree o'clock, when a
shower somewhat dampened the pro-
ceedings.
The first attra :tion of the day was the
calithnmpian and trades and labor pro-
cession at 11 o' look, in which many
characters wer represented and a num-
ber of the bash ess men took part. The
procession for ed at the town hall, and
headed by the citizens' band, marched
out to Minnie street and down to Vic-
toria, then n Josephine street to the
park. I
During t e forenoon the baseball
"nines" of eeswater and Blyth gave a
good exhibi ion of the popular game
with the re ult in favor of the former
by a score f 11 to 10.
In the of rnoon a large crowd throng-
ed the par and the temporary seats
which had sen erected for the accom-
modation o the visitors were soon filled.
Considerabl interest was shown in the
various rat and contests. The old-
time rivals o the lacrosse field, Kin-
cardine and Wingbam, crossed sticks
for forty mi utes, at the end o which
time the scot stood 4 to 0 in favor of
the latter. •
A large d ncing pavilion furnished
enjoyment for those who wished to in-
dulge in this pastime. Excellent music
was provided throughout the day by the
Wingham citizens band and piper Mc-
Donald.
The tug o war, between a picked
team from E st Wawanosh and Morris,
and a team 1 Winghamites, created a
good deal of 'interest. The men of toil
however, de onstrated their superiority
over the towt�fellov, s, and easily won the
prize.
In the eve: ling a band concert was
held, and amnalg the attractions was a
well executed scarf drill by Miss Hough-
ton's class oft 0 girls. Pie -eating and
watermelon lontests provoked con-
siderable Inirtl.,
Altogether tae day was a successful
one for the fir men, and there will be a

the celebration4
