The third annual exhibition by ;he Williamsburg County Fair asso nation opened here Tuesday morn- j nf>: and so far everything has pass?d off successfully, although the ;arnival people have experienced lome delay and a lot of extra hard vork in getting their heavy cars ind machinery into the grounds rom the unloading point on the raiload near the site of the old depot, ill due to the sand beds through ehich they have to be hauled. The train bringing the carnival-- j Smith's Greater Shows?arrived Sunday. The big elephant, "Miss Sandy," was a part of the aggregaion, though she was not in the best f condition, having been attacked >y a case of colic before leaving larion. Her popularity, however, vas undiminished by her indisposiion, for nearly every small boy in own and most of the grown ups aid their respects to her Sunday ifternoon. Monday morning this 'queen of the jungle" was little, n my, better and her keeper deemed t advisable to summon assistance, thereupon Dr Kelley and Mr P 0 ^rrowsmith were called; they adninistered to "Miss Candy" and ater in the day she was able to perirabulate over the big field north of he administration building, and is oday apparently enjoying good lealth The merry-go-round, the Ferris vheel, and a field full of other atractions have been set up and are iow in full swing to a liberal patronage day and night.

The xhibits are fine but not as numerous n some departments as last year. A lumber of our most successful farm* rs, some of whom exhibited their iroducts last year, have nothing here now. The same is true of the I oultry and live stock departments, Jthough there are on exhibition a lumber of splendid horses and cattle, md some fine chickens, as pretty as ver graced an exhibition pen.

Among the many other rare and quaint looking articles of the good old long ago are wedding and party dresses,laces, one piece hand-made by a Russian princess; dolls, spinning wheels, sivverware, bric-a-brac, etc. In the art department there is a splended display of pictures and articles of interest to a connoiseuer in this particular line. The schools having exhibit bootks were Wayside, Union High, Earles, ( Salters, Kingstree and Mulberry, i Union winning first honors for its i display, and Kingstree second. The display of class work by the pupils of each of these four schools is highly creditable to teacher as well as Btudent in the various lines of work shown and show the great improvements that are taking place from year to year in the public school rooms of the county. In the way of field crop exhibits, there is to be found a magnificent collection embracing a little of everything from the lowly cabbage to kingly corn; peppers, pumpkins and 'taters taking their usual prominent Mr W A Pilch hfls pmu: 1U1 3IW. 1U1 I? & a. an individual 'farm exhibit that makes one's mouth water to look at.
