THE STATE PALE.
^ :TbeF??rat Celumbia last week was a
Splendid suecess, surpassing the expectation*
of its most sa?guj^e friends. The attendance of
?i^r? Wa? ??m^Iy immense, the number on
g^-Tattiaday, being estimated at ten thousand.
?p^Nev?r before bas the hospitality of Columbia
'0r been so severely taxed, and never before has
pf| ? city responded to the demands of crowding
r ; :thonaan ds with a better spirit. More than
vi-one thousand persons were entertained at
; private houses through tbe intelligence office
.established for the occasion by the Columbia
^>Board^Trade? and though many were un- j
||? able to obtain comfortable lodging, the dis-j
comfort wa?~dne to no lack of effort on the
??.: part of the citizens of Columbia, and they
accepted the situation with that good nature
which seemed everywhere to prevail. Notwith
r standing the pressure of this surging sea of
%^ people, everybody seemed happy and, person
. ai inconvenience was forgotton in the general
: = good-humor which played opoo every couute
;' nance and beamed from every eye.
The exhibition building was crowded with
articles of every branch of artistic, mechanical,
agricultural and domestic creation, and pre?
sented a bean tifui, yet bewildering display,
an examination of one or two and a glance at
VL thereat was all that time would permit, v.hile
r ?a attempt to describe tbe excellencies of a very
small portion wouid bea hopeless task. The
display of machinery and agricultural imple?
ments was fine aod the stock and poultry ex
||| Kbit was complete. A novel feature, and
one which attracted considerable attention
';;:i?tlieKcydecoDte3t which took place on!
the race conrse on Thursday.
.^V;-'. There were eight entries for the first race, a
three quarter mile dash, TX A. Childs, Charles
r-* Cronenberg, George Green and Gil Berry,
5s fiomh.the Columbia Club, and T. T. Gilmer,
J.T. Davis, L. P. Blamand Er F. Young,
% trom the Charlotte Club. Several other Clubs
were represented bot did not enter the lists.
Cen. W. W. Humphries of Anderson, .Col. J.
IL 6. Nance of Newberry, and Mr. Jas. Mun
'$'r zoe of Union, acted as judges. The start was
; made from the judges' stand. Mr. Cronen?
berg of the Columbia Club, was thrown from
? bia machine nt the start, and Mr. Childs led
';:-.:';.tbe ?ce beautifully for the first quarter, when
Gilmer, of the Charlotte Club, began to gain
lp oajrim and pressed steadily ahead, coming io
?^ 'the winner in 3.02, Davissecond, Childs third,
; Ham fourth, Young fifth, Berry sixth, and j
Green seventh and last.
A second race was had between Gilmer, j
Devis, Young ana J. C. Weaver, of the Char- j
lotte Club, which was won by Gilmer. Dis
/ tance, halfmile ; time 2.03J.
'The pyrotechnic display on Thursday was
the most magnificent ever made ia South j
Carolina, and was witnessed by a multitude
V--; ?tpeople. At an early hour vehicles and
pedestrian* of all ages and conditions were
" . moving toward the ground, and long before
the hour every available space was occupied
for a considerable distance around. The ex?
hibition was opened by a rocket which lit up
: the area and the faces of the anxious thoa
sands that crowded around. The details of
; the programm? were faithfully carried out,
-and nothing occurred to mar the pleasure and
harmony of the occasion. Everything moved
with the precision of clock work, without
bitch, mishap or delay. It is co nputed that
fifteen thousand peeple witnessed this ?rand
display with delight and astonishment. It
was voted bj all a brilliant success, and well
repaid the trouble and expense of a trip to
Columbia.
Sumter County was well represented, both
by visitors and exhibits. The following pre?
miums were awarded to exhibitors from this j
County :

KNOCKABOUT SUITS.
(PATENTED.)
Ten Reasons why the "KNOCKABOUT" is the best Suit now
in the market for Boys' wear.
I.-Because the "KNOCKABOUTS" are made from double warp and double-and-twist, j
uotearable and wear-resisting fabrics.
IL-Because the "KNOCKABOUTS" are trimmed io the most substantial manner, none ?
but indestructible materials in thread, linings, buttons, 4c, being nsed in their j
mauufacture.
UL-Because the "KNOCKABOUT" Pants are made with'our Patented "Cavalry Knee," j
thereby insuring the greatest durability. j
IV.-Because the "KNOCKABOUT" fabric being a light color is not objectionable, as many j
suppose, for it is in reality a neutral shjyle which will not soil easily, and will not j
show the dust.
V.-Because the "KNOCKABOUT" as its name implies, is a neat, serviceable outfit, and
is well calculated to stand any amount of rough usage.
VI.-Because the "KNOCKABOUT" is produced solely to supply a want of an honest
wearing, substantially madeBOV'S SUIT at tbe low price of $5.00.
VU.-Because the "KNOCKABOUT" has proved an inestimable blessing to every Father
who has to buy. and every Mother who has to mend, tbe clothing of the irrepressible
boy of the period.
VIII-Because of the above given reasons the "KNOCKABOUT" Suits commend"1 themselves
to the taste, judgment and pocket of those to whom the amouut of money expended j
during the year for Boys' Clothing is no inconsiderable item. j
IX.-Because, since '-nothing succeeds like success," the great success of the "KNOCKA- i
BOUT" thus far proves it to be just the.Suit that was needed for Boys' wear.
X--Because knock-about as much as you will, nothing will be fourni to knock the
"KNOCKABOUT" Suit that is manufactured for
SS.OO.
