ticed in the Pavilion. All credit is due this
enterprising firm, for the maguihcence ol
goods placed before the public, and the
most fastidious will admit that more ele.
CANT and finer quality are rarely presented
to view. Choice dress and fancy goods
cloaks, ,laces in point apgliques, embroidered
boiling cloths, furs, sealskins, and every
variety of samples from large and CON-
plete stock, tend TO prove conclusively that
Messrs. Gattmann e. Wilson are alive to
the demands of the purchasers. The sue
cess of this firm has been phenomenal, and
matter of qualification to its numerous

store will convince all as to the truthful
ness OF the foregoing remarks.
Each day brief mention has been given
the display of L. K. Hammer in their ex-

The public in general, and residents of
this city and vicinity, have every reason TO

splendor and deserves the attention OF ali
who visit the Pavilion.
Attention is called to the display OF me-
teorological instruments, etc, shown by the
United States Signal Service Department,
which is in charge of Sergeant Barwick,
the local Observer Most of the instru-
ments were sent out from Washington for
this special occasion, and will have to be
returned as soon as the fair closes. The
Sergeant has been so thIckIy piled with
questions and callers that he has had TO in
struct several private citizens to help him
out in describing his different self-register-

Since the incipiency of its organization
favorable comment has been publicly ex-
pressed regarding the progress already
made by the firm of Shaw Ingram, hatcher
d Co. During the past two weeks, they
have, however, eclipsed all past efforts in
the line of successful enterprise. Thou
sands have already attested their apprecia-
ton of the magnificent display made by
this firm in the pavilion, and it truly is one
to be admired At sight it becomes an
object OF attractiyeness and genuine inspec-

the modern plan (by Philip Wolf, and
surrounded by lawn, is beautifully deco

of beauty and could not have been arranged
other than by the hands of artists and
