' The openiug tableau, the Pyramid of itoauty, was participated in by tho small people of the town aud wont off remarkably woll especially as with mostof tho "tots" it was a first appoaranco. All the mamas concerned had a right to feol quite proud both of tho appoaranco-and bohavior of tholr darlings. Tho fore most flguro in the picture was Cupid armed with his bow and aiming at the most elevated and tiniest girl of tho lot. Musio was next ia ordor and Miss Har ris and Miss McCaslau rendored a vocal ctnot with much sweetness and powor. Tho tableaux, Flirtation, In Love, Mar riage aud Vexation followed and were all particularly deserving of mention. In tho first scone, Miss Ida Fuller and Hilly Hall, both nppoarod to tako kindly to their, rolo. In tho next, Lovo, Dorroh Furguson was rovoated, placing a dia mond, which undoubtedly boro tho stamp of Tiffany, upon tho linger of Miss ljydlu Irbj\ Scone numbor threo was Married?tho honey-moon too presuma bly, in which Miss Mary Garrott and Claude Garrott participated.

From tlino to time "The Hoys" (Hoyeqon Myors, Dress and Ford Franks and Isidore Koppel) as tho program styled thorn, delighted the audienco with a suc cession of songs, many of thorn comic, and all good to llston to in every way. Tho Tabloau of tho ovonlng was IOsthor before King Ahasuorus, in which Miss Friorson appearod in the character of tho Jewish Maiden and Dr. H. K. Aikon as tho Eastern Potentate. It is uocdless to say that with so much natur al grace and beauty Miss Frierson could only havt porformod her part woll. One of tho groat attractions of tho occasion was tho recitations of Miss Garrott. With much talent and good training to aid her sho rondorod The First Settlor's Story exceedingly woll, bringing out all its strong pathos as only a truo olocu tionist can but it was in a familiar and very popnlar solectiou, Daisy's Faith, tho rendition of which is woll suited to hor natural graco and oaso of manner, that sho ospocially charmed hor audl onco.

A ."MarriageCeremony That Filled tho Baptists Church with Well Wishers. Hampton Guardian. Thusday morning was bright and boautiful, in happy contrast to tho week of drizzling, depressing ones that had precoodod it, and the early sun shono down on our sparkling streots Ailed with the good citi/.ons of Hampton, dressed In holiday attire, and joyfully wending tiioir way to tho Baptist church to witness tho marriage and subsequent depart ure of ono of Hampton's fairest daughters. Tho church was tastefully decorated with evergreens and rare exotics, while in front of the altar a bountiful lloral horseshoe was suspended, and pendont from itasilyerod lottor "K" pooped from Its ilowory onvolopo. Hy 7 o'clock tho seats woro all comfor tably HI loci and tho hum and buz/, of an nxnoctant audience roso above the nolso of nurryiftg foostops. Suddenly a hush fell on the unusual nssomblago and si lonco reigned until broken by tbo deep, resonant notes of tho artistically playod organ, aud the edifice vibrated with tho musical melody of tho wedding march. Tho bridal partv had arriyod and was tho cynosure of all oyos. Tho lovely bride appeared supported by tho arm of hor lather, and followed by tbo groom leaning on tho arm of his brother. Tho bridal party mot at tho altar, whero Kov. John <?. Williams stood roady to uttor the words that mado two loving hearts happy aud linked two souls together for thoir'journoy through lifo. Never did tu*? bandsomo Miss Leo nora Mauldin look [more bewitchingly boautiful, or moro self-possessed, than she did standing t here in tho houso of tho Lord, on the threshold of another lifo, attired in travelling costumn and ready to bid adieu to tho scones of hor childhood and to tho friends of hor youth. Sho is tho second daugiitor of Major W. H. Mauldin, and an acknowl edged favorito of Hampton, hor gracos of person hoingequalled only by those of hor head and noart. Highly eduoat od, refined, and imbued with all tho characteristics of truo womanhood, sho will graco any position that hor hus band's abilities may win.

CHlcago'8'"lakeTrout" is extreme ly pretty but its beauty is sadly marred. 1 cannot think that the stretch of town On which at any time one ?ees some hundreds of lazy or tired humanity lying in easy restfuluoss, with the expanse of sapphire waters bounding the Mastern horizon, would be 80 ex quisite as Charleston's Battery and White Point Garden even if the eight or ten tracks of the Illi nois Central skirting the water's edge, with squadrons of smoking , locomotives constantly deploying, did not intervene to make the view obtrusively imperfect, but it is nevertheless one which has charms that are not common. Tho Chicago "boulevards" are not less agreeable to the eye than tho fashionable residence streets of the average city but the compara tive infrequence of tho soap signs and bill boards yield to them a peculiarly pleasing aspect which they otherwise would not possess. The Chicago parks are in a way handsome. That is to say, they are well kept. Tho grass is as green and velvety as one could wish and the lagoons with the small boats carrying cargoes of sweethearts are refreshing. Tho trees though are young and groves of saplings do not impress one to the same degree as do groat elms and oaks. The ground is of course drearily flat and that is a defect which time will not remedy. Art and money cannot make landscapes that are entirely satisfactory In a country whore there are no ravines nor real, genuine hills. After going to Church on a Sun day morning and listening to a Texan deliver a most excellent and eloquent sermon I journeyed out to Lincoln Park and spent the after noon. Troops of people woro there and evidently from their dress most of them wore men and wo men and children whose hands wero used to toll ton hours a day for six days in seven. Somo wero strolling, many wero pic nicking under tho trees, hundreds were lolling on tho grass and hero and thero was a group playing cards. In a sense thero seemed to bo a contemptuous disrogard of tho Sabbath just as if tho knowledge that it is sot apart and made sa cred had not found its way to those remote but populous regions. Ono who has even a dim recollection of tho Shorter Catichism is at first shocked at the scene but as his eyes grow familiar with it tho conviction forces itself that there is deep rest and recreation pervading it all. Face to faco with these people en joying their Sunday as school chil dren sport in their midday recess many of us at this distance too willing to condemn them as har dored sinners and desccrators of tho Sabbath gladly recall and obey the Scriptural behest which forbids us to judge lest we be judged our selves. While our party, there wero thirteen of us, wero being driven over tho park in a "park phinton" tho driver suddenly drew roin in front of old Abe Lincoln's statue. Then with amiable condescension and in tho Chicagoeso language ho informed us that his grand lather was a Darnell and a cousin of the statue's original. Ho was a white haired youth with a red face, was this patrician on tlio box, and told roe that his name was Oiler. Thus wo woro taught that Chicago is teeming with kin of tho great and thereafter none of us would have been surprised to havo encoun tered a Norwegian prince in tho person of a cable car conductor. Washington Park is not so pop ular as Lincoln but it is more beau tiful. It contains ilowers lovelier than ono can dream of and the visitor to Chicago who does not see it is unfortunate. And when ono rests his tired foot on tho cool, soft sward ho comes to believe that per 'baps Nebucadnezzar's fato was not so bad after all. Monday morning after my arri val I" Chicago I embarkod in a bus and rode down to tho World's Fair. It is generally and vera cioudy advertised as tho greatest show on oarth, Tho characteristic of it that impresses you, oppresses you, knocks you down and strikes you dumb is bigness. Tho moment aftor you enter tho gatos you aro stranded. Perhaps you havo a portable library of guide books and eight or ten reams of maps and charts which you havo been diligently studying for weeks but you are lost, dazed and confounded just as you would bo should you land in tho moon. Thoro aro a thousand courses opon to you. You can for a dime take a trip over tho intramural railway, an olovated road running around tho grounds but "within tho walls" as the name implies, Aid it will afford you an excellent view of the way the trees appear to tho sparrows and the walls to tho chimney swoops, You will land in the re gion of perplexity again. You might thon intorvlew tho gorgeous porsonago in bluo apparel whom you are apt at first glance to tako for an exhibit of Durham's tobaccos because ho resembles tho picturos of tlio dukes whoso portraits aro on tho bags.

Tho Columbian guard is a miracle of evolution. A casual glanco tplls you that ho was discovered four months ago in the uttormost parts of tho coun try-and selected on account of his intense greenness, and va{ you find him already developed into a crcaturo of haughty awk wardncssjand gaudy dignity and in to whom a small quantity of facts has been poured.

Your eyes strive nobly to respond to to all demands, they are peeping and peering, up, down, across and around corners aud drinking in me chanical and artistic worlds In gulps. For two glorious hours they stand up to their work and in that time you have received more lasting impressions than you will obtain in the week that follows. It Is all new and grand now and the daz zling pictures sink into your mind to abide. For the time you are sat isfied that every exhibit is obedi ently registering itself in your memory and that you will be able to deal out graphic descriptions by tho yard to your friends at home. But the two hours are ovor and you begin to appreciate the bigness of tho World's Fair. It has sud denly fallen upon you like a feather bed from some tall height above. Its weight sinks into you, down, down and settles in your feet and ankles. Thero it stays. Your whole body is soaked with fatigue, but the mighty weight is all below tho knees. Thenceforward you cease to walk but crawl without getting on all fours. Novelties and marvels continue to paint them selves on tho crowded retinas and the mind has a hazy consciousness that tho pro cesses are going on. Bui. the in toxicating joy of sight-seoing is over. Wonders havo ceased. You are now "doing" tho fair. You havo a fixod purposo to wander through aisles and avenues graced by thousands of articles priceless in value, wrought through months andyoars of persevering toil by tho world's most cunning artists and skilled workman. Yours is tho de termination to 8oo them; that is why you aro at tho fair, and you are in cold earnest per forming your task. You sit here for a while and rest, you lunch under this pavilion to day and that to-morrow, and over and oc casionally you withdraw from the crowd to indulge In something that amuses and does not instruct. See ing exhibits though Is business, strictly business, and while it is one of engrossing and absorbing interest it none tho less conquers and drowns your *powors of mind and body in weariness.
