FUN AT THE FAIR. Arrangements for Outside Attrac tions in Columbia.

Pooplo of all oooupaiions tako interest in an exhibition intondod primarily for tho entertainment and tho bittoiinont of tho farmors. Still it is tho wish of tho oitizons of Ooluni bia to afford ontortainraont in tho oity propor, distinct from tho fair itsolf. To this end thoro was organizod eomo years ago tho City Fair Association, and ovory year this body appoints a committeo to ranko ncooesary arrango monts. This oomoiittoo has olosod a oontraot with tho Columbia Klcotrio Light Compauy for tho brilliant illumi nation of Main street during fair wook. Seven handnomo cross arohes aro to bo orootod, and thoro will bo lights along tho sido of tho streets hctwoon tho aruhos as well. This will pr?vido suoh streot illumination an has never boon provided in Columbia boforo. Tho oorarntttco also olosod a oontract with tho famous United Staton First Artillery baud from tho fort on Sulli van's Island for throo oonoorts of two hours oaoh day for each day of tho fair. Tho oommittoo was onablod to Boouro this band, whioh is the ranking band in tho army, by going into an agroomont with tho exooutivo oommit too in ohargo of tho Stato ball. Tho oonoorts will probably bo given from the piazzas of tho two leading hotel and a stand in tho Stato houso grounds j nat in front of tho Confederate monu ment. In addition io thia band tho coommittoo on amusements has en gaged tho sorvicos of tho brass band of ibo Columbia Orobobtra, whoso music, recognized as brat olass, will aupplo mont that ot thc Frist Arlillory band. Thus thoro Will bo plenty of Ano mu?io all through tho wook. Ono or moro oompanios of aoiob?ts or otbor expsrt performers will also bo engaged, and thoso will givo at loast ono free exhibition on Main strcot ovory day from Tuesday till Friday. Tho objoot of tho local association is to afford ontortainmont to visitois in tho intervals botwoou tho timos when it is oonvoniont to attond tho fair itsolf. This objoot will bo well accomplished this year. Tho brilliant and beautiful Iillumination of Main streot will inako it a popular promonade, and this of it . self will furnish entertainment to those who may not wish to attond the tho avro. Tho annual ball of tho South Carolina olub is always a loading feature of fair week: In tho hall of the Houso of Repre sentatives (ono of tho handsomest halls in tho oouutry) will g.Uher ladios and gentlemen fcom all parts of South Car olina and also from otbor Statos,- Tho oiub is a sooial institution of long atanding and groat popularity.

HIS PURPOSE FOILED. Tho Hold Up Occurred Almost at Exac* Point ot th* Famout Warran Robbery. On last Wodnosdny night Conductor Oareon, who runs on the Southern Rail-, road between Columbia and Charleston, had a somewhat oxoiting and novor-to bo forgotton oxporionoo. It was noth ing loss than a bold attempt to hold up and,rob his train. Tho hold up took plaoo about revon o,olook, only a little whilo after dark, and ooourrod bptwoan Branohvillo and lloovosvillo, which io tho samo plaoo tho robbery took placo, nearly two yoars ago, for which. young wbito man by tho namo of VVar rou was triod at tho May torm of Court for Orangoburg, tho trial resulting jin a - mistrial. Warron was roloasod on bail and a short timo ago shot and killed a young man hy tho namo of Watson at Branohvillo, whoro both Warren and Watson rosidod. Sinoo tho murder of Watson tho whereabouts of Warren Ima t boon unknown. At tho last torm of ID ?UIIW LUM v.i.vmwSi TY VVU1U Ul was tho chief witness against Warren. lu view of tho former robbery' at tho oxaot spot Capt. Carson was considera bly jarred when ho looked into tho m?zalo of a rovolvor and was orderod baok into his esr. Tho following sato mont was made by Capt. Carson td a reporter of tho Nows and Courior: "1 am confident that tho man was thoroughly familiar with railroad af fairs," said Capt. Carson to a Reporter for tho Nows and Courior Thursday. "After wo loft Ii o o vc s vi Ho, on tho way to Columbia, I walkod from tho passongor car to tho platform leading to tho express oar and, as I oponed tho ; door, I saw a figure orouohod by tho opposite door. Ho had boon knocking on tho door and 1 am sure ho was wait ing for it to bo oponed, but , in the rush his signal was probably not beard, "Tho light which carno from tho oar foll on tho stranger's faco and I could ' soo that ho waa disguising his identity behind a mask, When 1 ?poko to'him ho roso q?iokly. Just thon I walked to the platform of tim express oar and tho man swung back to tho stops on tho . car behind. W hi lo I was trying to find out what ho was aboafc ho whipped out his pistol and shoved it dangerously noarmy faoo. Ho throatonod to kill mo if 1 moved and there was nothing for mo to dd but Wait: "Whilo ho had mo oovored with tho rovolvor, I uorutinizod him olosoly. VI - oould soo that ho wore a mask, whi?h did not tit him well, and ho WAS nerv ous about it, frequently lifting his hand to soo that it was properly in plaoo. In a fow minuten tho onginoer blew his signal for station No. 68, and tho stran ger oaugkfc, tho bell and gavo it two ; pulls, a signal to stop. Tho train was slowing down for 53. It was running at tho rate of fifteen or oighteon milos ao hour whon tho man Jumped off and wo went, on. Tho mattor was reported to hoadquartorn in Columbia whon wo got there Wodnosday night and a dotoo t ive cn mo down on tho train Thursday morning. I havo not hoard yet wno th or ho struck any trail." Tho Oolumbia Stato soourod from i pasisoogoro on the train a somewhat connected story. Itseoms that soon af tor tho train passed Roovoovillo, tho ex* press uiosgongor, Mr. 11 ?mm ut, hoard a kuookiug at his door. Tho messen-* gor know his business and rofasod to aoknowlodgo tho rapping. About this timo Capt. Carson and a train hand oauio mound looking for "hoboes," for this is a favorito plaoo for tramps to steal arido-on tho platform botweon tho sooond-olasa oar and tho express oar. Whon tho conductor stepped out upon the platform ho was surprised whon a rovolver was thrust into his faco and ho was ordorod baok into tho scoond-olass oar. Like a good soldier, ho obeyed orders, as did tho train hand. Tho nows butcher, prying around, was also forced to heat a rotreat. A? the train neared "station 58" on tho other sido of Branohvillo, tho highwayman gavo tho signal to stop. When tho train slowed down ho stopped out Into tho darknoss at almost identically tho plaoo whore the express r?hbor got off on tho night of tho famous robbery for whioh Harrow Warren was arrested. Homo of tho pasHongors who sar? tho man a? ho loft tho train say? ho very much roo om bl ed Warren, but as War ron is now a fugitivo from juitioo with a reward of four hundred dollars on his head, it oould hardly have boon him. It may bs beoause tho oiroumntanoos of tbo othor robbory was frosh in the mind of tho publio and this ono occur ring at tho samo placo load to tho tup* position that it may h vo bean Warren.. Thoro are oomo pooplo who beliovo that Warron is still hiding in tho vi' cinity of Branohvillo. If this is truo, it might have boon him who mad o tho sooond attempt at holding up tho train Wednesday night. If Warren was not tho man who hold up tho train Wednes day night, it makes it oxtromoly doubt ful about his boin* tho person who hold up tho first train, Tho railroad au thovitios will take stops to givo tho noxfe robbor a warm roooption.
