WEST END, HappenlngN and Incident* oi it AVeel Aronnd Die City. t Mr. It. W. Perrln spent Saturday night her with his parents, returning Sunday to Cc jt Inmbla. He stopped on his way Irom th Exposition. Money must be much more plentifnl in thi part of tbe country than wo would imaein< ii The way .the patent medicine man. excbang ed his remedy for good big dollars last Mor day was a sight to behold. He reaped a rlc harvest and must have made a nice llttl profit on bis sales, the "Dutchman's one pc cent," we suppose if not more. The crowd in town saleday was a large on< and good naturcd and sober generally speal / in if. We believe that Abbeville has sent to th Exposition the largest representation of an town of her size in the State. Messrs J. F. Lyon, M. P. DeBrubl and J. C Edwards left this morninu via the S.

Monday he received tii finest lot of oysters we have seen In th market for a long: time. They were especia ly ordered for thanksgiving, but were sbipe< too late for that day, and come in Monda: Mr. Younger sells large luscious oysters at a times, and you will never make a rnistak ?! buying from bim. All of the Exposition Pilgrims from th! place who went over to the Gate City fc South Carolina day have gotton home. The report a-'good time," and came home ratht wore out with sight seeing. The trained birds have attracted larg crowds for the past day or two. This is tti best street show we have tfeen in our city, an well worth seeing. It 1b truly wonderful hoi patient work, for it must have taken weeks not months, to drill these feathered perforrr - ere, and persev.eranee, have In this casi made these beautiful Inhabitants of the a splendid actors. Each doing its part, wit skill. One of the birds,.the "Professor" h owner calls him, a snow white bird with bright yellow crest, was especially well train en, and a general favorite.
