Public ledger. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1865-1893, 1870-10-13

lows Hall, on MAIN b'fee's D At
Mrs. Capers and other ladies' whose
names we did not learn, had some hand
some oil paintings in the department o.
Gne arts. We noticed, also, three large
paintings, executed by Miss Aggie Cook
Of Forest Hill-The Quiet Nook,
American Fruit and "The Monarch
of the Glen which is regarded as fan
work for young artist who has only
secretly commenced
tft4tt JET GOODS.
j. Roescher a Co., Of 1928 Main st..
of the Jet Palace, have on
view an elegant case of jet goods, the
only one of the kind that we remember e
have seen in the grounds. The display
was large and beautiful, and greatly ad
inired by the ladies who are connoiseurs
In such matters. This firm must have q
monopoly of all the jet goods in the mar
ket. They have superior facilities fol-
dealing in this line, and can certainly
please any class ofcustomers.
STOVES AID TIYwARE.
There is considerable competition in
this department, and most of the articles
on exhibition have a fine appearance,
We noticed quite a number of stoves Of
different patterns, but the one we wish ia
mention specially is called the Excel
lent" of which 7, S. Jukes is the agent.
In this stove can be used wood or coal,
and works well with either, thereby
making it an economical invention for
those living in the city, who wish to burn
coal, and equally as good for country
people, who prefer wood. Mr. Jukes also
makes grand display of tinware. The
articles in this line, on exhibition at his
stand, are only samples Of what may be
found at all times at his store, 1928 Sec.
ond street. II gives us pleasure to note
the fact that Mr.. Jukes is a Memphis
man, born, raised, and learned his trade
in our city, and has worked his way up
from an apprentice to the owner OF 2
large tin and stove store. These facts
show that Memphis people can do some
things, as well as those from the North,
or other places. Country people visiting
the fair will consult their interests by
calling on Mr.. Jukes, if they wish 70
purchase goods in his line. "a word TO
the wise is sufficient
The next stand to Mr.. Jukes is Occur
pied by John L. Eichberg 4 Co., who
make very fine show of galvanized iron
work, consisting of window caps, cor
nices, brackets, and ornamental work.
This is excellent, and all manufactured
at their establishment, corner of Wash
ington and Main streets. These gentle
men enter the Charter" "Emporia" and
'P. p. Stewart cook stoves, and feel con-
ident of their success. The patent goose
neck elbow is new and beautiful inven7
ton for stove pipes The parrot cage, at
this stand is monster piece of tin
work, and was made by the father of
Mr.. Eichberg, who is now Ga years of age
It does him great credit. They have a
splendid pair of milk cans, brass bound
the handles of which were made by
Randle & Heath, at their foundry,
on Second street, corner Winchester.
The set of stove trimmings, made by
Marion Virgeson, an apprentice only a
short time at the business, and the pans
BY Pat Webb also an apprentice, are all
excellent. These boys deserve credit
for their productions for they have
worked hard at night to complete them
for the fair. The assortment of plain
and planished tin ware at this stand is
fine indeed Eichburg & Co. will run
somebody close for premiums, if we are
mot very much mistaken.
FINE PAINTING. 10
We hear a great many complimentary
remarks made about the samples of
painting, granting and gliding by Hook
& Lagrill. They deserve all the praise
given. The doors on exhibition show
the very best specimen Of granting, and
the signs are exquisite The head that
designed, and the hand that executed
these beauties, could be possessed only
by the finest artist. Hook & Lagrill s.
paint shop is on Monroe street, corner
of alley, between Main and Second
REFRESHMENTS.
In the northern amphitheater Frapk|
Cuneo and his lady provide refreshments
for the ladies and gentlemen visiting the
fair. They keep nice fresh oysters and
other eatables for the hungry, aHd iinaI
wines for the thirsty. Everybody knows
Frank, and will be sure to call on him.
