Daily Ohio statesman. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1855-1870, 1867-09-12

quilted, that was superb (no other WORD
will express it). This cloak is as artistic
in ornament as it could well be made, and
is rare specimen of handiwork. The
dress goods, laces, trimmings and shawls
are all worthy of the establishment from
which they came. In addition to the arti-
cles heretofore enumerated were samples oj
the celebrated A. X. Young & Co.'s bor
ton hoop skirts, whichare universal favor
ties with ladies OF fashion. Headley 6
Co.'s contribution is exhibited by Mr., Geo
Freeman, who is untiring in his efforts to
make this and every other department OIL
the Fair a success.
Our energetic friend Reed, of the Hoop
Skirt Emporium No 81 East State street,
occupies the south end, west side, of Do
nestle Hall, with a superior show of hoop
sive importer of the famous Burly- Amazon
Corset, which is unsurpassed the world
over. His hoop skirts put together with
six edge clasps, are not only durable, but
indispensable to all who have ever tried
them. We examined some Eastern made
skirts in the same hall noted for their
beauty and finish, but they were far in
ferior to those shown by Mr.. Reed.
Mr.. w. f. Penny, No. los South High
street, enters and exhibits the Singer sew
ing machine. This triumph of industrial
art is situated in the center and near the
south end of Domestic Hall, accompanied
by samples of fine sewing, braiding and
embroidery, the product of this incompar-
able machine. The work was done in this
city, and not, as is frequently the case with
similar exh ibltions, imported from the
East. Did not the manufacturers rely
solely upon the intrinsic merits of the ma
chine, we should present some of its prom
inent features, but such are the universal
expressions of approval from all quarters
that this is uncalled for.
Fronting the north entrance, and in the
centre of Domestic Hall, stands magnifi-
cent case of Partisan pattern bonnets
and ladies hats, ribbons, feathers, flowers,
ornaments and pearl and jet collars, con-
tributed by Mr.. c. w. Simmons, whole
sale and retail dealer in millinery goods
No. 164 South High street. This case is
one of rare beauty, and is constantly sur
rounded by a crowd of admiring ladies
who are lavish of praises of the "loves OF
bonnets" Within.
In Domestic Hall Is to be seen liberal
display of ladies cloaks, cloaking cloths
and trimmings from the mandatory OF
Fred. Bell, 103 South High street. In this
collection we counted % distinct styles of
fancy fabrics for cloaks. The specimens of
manufactured cloaks are not to be excelled
in the West, Mr.. Bell resting his claims
for superiority almost entirely upon the
taste evinced in the selection of material
and style of construction. This is worthy
the consideration of all our lady readers.
The Lamb Knitting Machine, most val
liable invention of practical utility, is ex-
hibited in Domestic Hall by Mr.. w. F.
Penny, No. 155 South High street. This
machine is not only of interest to the man
ufacturer, but an object of curiosity. 1t
knits more than twenty articles of apparal
AMI narrows off the toe and knits the heel
as completely as if it was done by hand.
1t is constructed upon new principal
from any other ''knitter" and by its COM
pleteness and perfect simplicity has already
produced revolution in the art of knit
ting by machinery. All ladies should see
it work.
To the east and in the immediate vicinity
of Domestic Hall, Peters s. Benns, car
riage makers, East Town street, opposite
Gwynue= Block, have on exhibition two
samples of their mechanism-one of these
Is light two-horse bar ouche and the 9TH
er tidy little family rockaway. Both
are made and finished throughout with ex-
qusite skill, land will compare favorablywith
the workmanship of the most extensive
carriage manufactures of the East. These
exhibitors are both industrious young ar
tificers of Columbus, who are anxious to
establish a permanent business, and their
entries at the fair are of such high order
of merit as to insure success. They are
truly deserving of encouragement.
