KouuUm About the City.
Abbeville. S. C., Oct. 20,15)01.
THE FAIR ASl) CARNIVAL 18 OVER,
And all are agreed that 11 was a grand success.
The city wa.s fllied 10 overflowing every
day, and every one seemed happy, and lu
lovi aud peace with all mankind, and enjoy
ed the Carnival to tne utmost. Friends
greeted each other ; and many were overjoy
ed at meeting those Iroru whom tliey had
been separated many long years; this to out
mind was one ol the prime leutures of ihtoccatiou,
bringing the people together,
THE EXHIBITS,
In the Art and Fancy goods department was
very tine, beautllul pictures, and exquisite
/anoy work were to be seen,every where. This
department would do credit to the County at
the mate Fair.
THE HOUSEHOLD DEPARTMENT
was well-fllled with quite a variety of such
goodB as canued fruits, Jellies, wines, sauces,
pickle and many other uice tblugs, all ot
which attracted the careful attention of every
one. The display , lu this department was
very good Indeed.
THE AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT,
We regret to say did not come up to our
expectations, the display belug entirely loo
small. The products shown were very good,
but not enough In variety, aud numbers to
reflect credit upon the Agricultural interests
of this grand old county, or do credit to the
farmers. There was great room la this de
partment for vast improvement.
THE MINERALS.
In this depaitment were to be seen a very
creditable exhibit ot Qne specimens of ore
iu gold, sliver, iron, mica and other metals,
presenting to the explorer great fields, rich in
r.hfuiH hidden treasures, which will some day
be unearthed and scattered amuuK our
people.
THE LIVE STOCK.
Tbl? was good, aod while It was creditable,
might bave bee a larger. Some flue specimens
o( boooe raised horses were to be seen, Tbere
were also a floe lot ol cow?, sheep, bogs, and
goals, which uiade one tbluk of ibe good old
lime ibat "used 10 be" dowu In Dixie, but are
uow numbered wltb the past, goue, never to
return.
THE POULTRY DISPLAY
was exceedingly fine, and In greater variety
tban was really expected. Tbere was a
larger and liner display of Plymouth Kock*
tban In any one breed. In this department
were also fine specimens 01 turkeys, geese
aud ducks. This was a noisy place and
Claimed its share of admiration, lrom
fanciers and all admirers of the leathered
trice.

THE BISCUIT CONTEST.
This scene presented one of the "pictures"
of the Cxrnlval. A real life pioture that holds
a very Important place In every home. It
was a lively and sharp contest between a
large number of young ladles, all of whom
did their best, each aod everyone of them
making biscuits fit 10 set beiore a "King,"
but Miss Maud Kay bore ofi the laurels ol
the contest, by making the best bisculis, and
was awarded the splendid cook stove and
utensils, presented by the Abbeville Hardware
Compauy, valued at 325. Miss Kay Is a
nelce of Mis. kllllogsworth of this city nod is
ooe of tbe bright pupils of tbe Abbeville
Graded School.
TUB TRADE'S DISPLAY.
In tbls procession was to be seen the artistic
skill and up to date push of some of our
most prominent merchants, who put themselves
before tbe public, so that their names
and places of business will not soon be (orgotten.
Some of tbe floats deserve special
mention, but they were all so pretty and
arranged with such exquisite taste that we
forbear, and pass them all as one of the
wpeclal hits of the occasion.
THE GRAND FLORA L PARADE
Was grand, unique and novel, making up one
of tbe brightest and prettiest picture of the
Carnival. Home of tbe decorations were
simply beautiful and called forth tbe admiration
ol every one. Tbe most beautiful
of all tbls long line of equipages was the
carriage upon which tbe Queen and her
lovely maids were seated attended by two
out-rlders, and lour liverymen, dressed in
Eure while, each leading one of tbe white
orsea attached to the Queen's carriage, which
was draped In white and gilt, with two large
butterflies, white and gilt, most artlxcally arranged
on the front of the carriage. The
beautiful qneen, Miss Willie Calhoun was
seated high upon her ihroue from which she
looked upon the surging crowd with a
pleasant smile, which seemingly said, I am
glaatosee those of my subjects who would
thus honor trie so very happy, aud wish for
and tbls people long life and great prosperity.
CHILDREN'S DAY.
Thli was the "Hid Letter" day of the Carnival,
hundreds of nappy children beaded by
a band of muslo to wlilcb tbey kept lively
KteD. marching from the school building to
the Court Houne, where they were eutertalned
by an addre?s from Mr. McLeese, whose
reputation as a speaker always goes ahead ol
lnm. Mr. McLees Is a happy bit on such an
occasion. The Court House wan literally Jammed
aud packed, while crowds mood upon
the steps waiting to see If they might perchance
get In.
veterans parade.
Several hundred of those honored old roIdiers
kept measured tread to the splendid
mr-ilDH of in irt al music and marched as In
"days gone by." The heads of many of these
Veterans are now whitened by the frosts ol
many winters. Their step has grown feeble
and their eyes dim, but that courage aud
berolsm that made them gallant, brave and
true, as "soldier boys" lingers still. 1 bey
marched to the Court House and were addressed
by llev. J. Liowrle Wilson, Hon. J J.
Hemphill and others. The company of
these old hero's is growing smaller as the
years go by. One by one they are "crossing
over (he river aud resting under the shade ol
tbe trees."
athletic sports
Interested a large crowd on the public
square and were a source of fun and frolic to
all, especially the "cake walk."
trotting match.
This brought forth many fine horses, which
were speeding around the public square ou
full time. Tho cod lest was sharp and spirited
and was entered Into by a number of horsek
men. A pretiy horse and a fine driver always
claim the attention of all, especially the ladies.
Tbe gala days of the Abbeville County Kalr
and Carnival have passed, and the Committees
deserve the thanks of all Interested Tor
