About t^ajFair; Wo promised that under certain | CunditionsVe would write again when \ we had taken in the Fair, and here we are although looking pretty thin. Wednesday dawned bright and j clear and we took an early shirt to catch the noon train for Columbia, at Leesville, and soon were speeding cn our way with a great crowd for the same destination. The only incident on the way. worthy of mention was the croesing of the new bridge nesr Columbia, the temporary scaffolding of which gave way several inches under the huge human load. The weather woke np raining Thursday morning and many thought the jig was up for a grand .lay. Early we took ourselves to the museum of the Agricultural building and spent a short while looking at tie various exhibits, which consisted of numerous war relics, stuffed birds, farm products, native woods, ancient bones and tooth, and many other things too ncmerous to mention, ua top was displayed the bine and the T white flags of the Signal Service, ? signifying rain,, followed by fair c weather, and then wo felt easier. ( Next we went to the State House and saw (be nearly finished Senate and Representative chambers, both marvels of magnificence, the floors 1 are of marble and the galleries and 1 ceiling are finished in gold color*. A temporary 6oor of wood was being laid in the House end for the purpose of holding a grand ball there that * nigh*. ' f Then we came out and took a car c for the Fair gronnda amidst mod c and slosh, of which there was an ^ abundance. Ruin was still falliog slowly when vKf went in and the vast ' crowd were pushing into the build- f ings making a jam which it wkp. s difflcnlt to get through. It would be j impossible to name the exhibits in ^ order, but we noticed several comparatively ijew features, amoDg which were the b&e exhibit, the Ilecker flour 1 and Fleischman yeast exhibit, where c yon could get a pan-cake for nothing; c the cologne pavilion* where pretty girls sprinkled you . with fragrant cologne as you passed by ; the piano and organ exhibit, where you were ^ furnished with exquisite music all day loog ; the W. C. T. U. pavilion, ? and so on. The ladies department' was the fullest* we ever saw .in the line of crochet and Deedle work, jellies, jams, preserves, syrups, etc. The farm exhibit was Roe; among it a was the mammoth pumpkin weighing t 102 pounds. The fine art show was full; especially in photographs, oil paintings, pencil and crayon drawJogs. The machinery exhibit, we are sorry te say, ^was light, there being f but one engine ont and its boiler was i second-bond/ Poultry and live stock ^ were oa^io^nll force. Side shows as usual alfpveoders of eatables shouted ^ at you Jroiii all sides ; also chance games were plenty. At night we saw * the firework display which had only 1 one fadlt, it was too short. The air j was so rare that the smoke could not rise which drew from its grandeur a aod nearly smoked us ont. We retired early, rose early and ^ took the morning train for home Fri- J day, glad to getaway from CoIambiaV * mad after a stay of forty-one bonrs. 8 As a whole it was tbe best Fair we ever attended. The conveniences of city travel were nDsnrpaseed ; tbe accommodations ail that could be ex- 1 pectej^andji^artily did we eDjoy fair e Columbia's hospitality. W. II. H. t Caughman's S.
