The displays in the different depart
ments were equal, If not superior, to
those of former years, the various ex-
hibitOrs Vieing with each other in the
attractivness of their respective exhibit
tiOns of goods.
Floral hall was the great centre Of
attraction, towards which almost every
one directed their steps. Consequently
it was thrOnged with people at all hours
of the day, eager to gaze upon the thous-
and and one articles placed on exhibition
within its walls. One of the most note
worthy exhibitions which was to be
seen within the hall was that of the
enterprising and reliable clOthier,
ED. GOLDBERG,
who was located in the west wing
of the building, and whose mag
| nidcent display of mems, youths and
boys clothing of all styles and patterns,
attracted the attention of all visitors to
the hall. Many were the compliment
ary remarks passed upon it, and judg-
ing from the general tenor of these,
there never was finer display of cloth
| ing made at a Stark County Fair. The
| goods exhibited were strictly first-class
| in every particular, cut in the most ap-
proved style, and were no patent sam
pie exhibition goods imported for the
occasion, but selected at random from
his general stock, and are just the same
1 as can be found at his store any time.
In addition to the display of clothing,
Mr.. Goldberg also had on exhibition the
many valuable presents he intends pre-
| senting to his patrons about the 1St of
January, among which may be mention
ed the $3.50 Werts buggy, the $75 White
sewing machine, and the handsome Bu-
cher, Gibbs & Co.'S Imperial plOw. The
whole makeup of the display evinced
great taste and Judgment on the part of
| Alr. Goldberg, and he received the first
premium both for the finest display and
the best clothing, which there is NO
doubt he richly deserved.
Another rich and attractive display
was that Of
COLLARS CO.,
which was located in the centre
of the hall, and the goods ex-
hibited were of the finest kind, EN-
bracing a variety of beautiful articles,
such as furs. seal skin goods. plain and
brOcade velvet. dress goods, etc.
The chief object of interest in this
| display was handsome seal skin sack,
valued at $500, whose beautiful luster
acted as sort of magnet to attract the
ladies, who gazed fond and lovingly on
tsrich and ample folds.
GOLDBERG BROS.
had the largest and most magnificent
display ia the hall, the goods shown be-
ing of a varied and comprehensive
character. COttOns, white goods, dress
goods, laces, satins and Velvets, were
piled in most enticing confusion from
the dOOTltO the Tafters, and all day long a
thrOng of feminine diYinities might be
seen gazing admiTingly on the things
so dear to their dress-lOving hearts.
Immediately in front of Goldberg
Bros, was the exhibit of
J. o. FARMER,
which consisted of carpets, tapestry,
curtains, window shades, laces, etc,
and attracted considerable of attention,
by reason of the rich and prOfuse dis
play, together with the healthful de-
signs in tapestry, and richly decorated
curtains. The display was great credit
TO this we'll known and popular carpet
house.
Messrs. France & Hershey, of 72 East
TuscaraWas street, agents for the
WHITE SEWING MACHINE,
had number of these popular machines
on exhibition. together with innumera-
bic samples of different kinds of sewing
and fancy embroidery work. The me-
chanical principles involved in the i'm
proved White sewing machine, which
has gained such wonderful popularity
in all sections Of the country, differ In
many important respects from those of
the ordinary machines of other manu-
facturers, combining as 1t does in re-
markable degree, simplicity, strength,
durability, economy and an adaptation
to the largest range of work, making it
one of the best machines in the market.
One Of the most interesting exhibits
in the hall was the display of
patent tools of Mr.. Henry Fisher.
which attracted the attention of
all those who are interested
in the perfection and labOr-saving
devices and tools and implements of
labor. The display was large one, and
most complete, embracing all the latest
improvements in common tools, as we'll
as numerous newly invented ones, that
are we'll worthy of inspection.
As is usually the case at our fair, the
exhibits of agricultural Implements,
farm machinery and wagons was quite
large, and this department being the
special point Of interest for the farmer,
attracted the greater part of that class,
the different machines being surround
ed by an interested and inquisitive
crowd, anxious to observe their work

exhibits In ,his line was the new i'm
proved
MAsER WAGON,
built at Paris, Ohio, by Mr.. Fred Maser,
and of which Mr.. Thursby of this city is
the agent. Mr.. Thursby had three OF
four of these wagons on the grounds,
and their fine display of careful work
manship, coupled with their attractive
appearance, made them objects of much
interest to the large number of farmers
present, who inspected them with crit
ical eye, and in almost every case, pro-
nOunced them very fine wagon, equal
in every respect to any other made, and
one that was bound to sell well.
