SOME OF THE EXHIBITS.
/ have had the privilege of peeping over
Manager Henry's shoulder and have
caught glimpse of some of the notable
features which will make the Exposition
of 1891 a most memorable one, and seri-
ously speaking it will be a gorgeous, va
ried and most complete display. The
system of Corliss engines, three in num-
ber, aggregating $50 horse power, will be
the finest in the world, and will operate
every piece of the mpltifarious of me-
chanical contrivance in Machinery Hall.
This machinery will consist of almost
every device which the human mind is
capable of inventipg for the use OF man
in the manufacturing and industrial pur-
suits of the age. One of these will be q
complete shoe factory in operation,
which the Goodyear Company, Of Boston
enters. This aggregation of mechanisms
consist of number of machines for the
several parts of the shoe, such as cutter,
binder, counter maker, machines for the
soles, heels, rubhsrs, tips, buttons, but
ton holes, lace stringers, and SO on, en-
bracing every part of footwear and all OF
them operated at once and in perfect con-
cert. You give your measure, the leather
is put into the machines, and 10! while
you wait, it rolls out at the other end,
finished shoe ready to be worn. This
machine makes every grade of shoe, from
the common every day brogan to "my
lady's" Cinderilla-like white kid ball
slippers. 1t is marvellous arrangement
and of itself is worth the time and money
of visit to the Exposition.
COTTON HARVESTER.
Probably the most important piece OF
mechanism to the people of South Caro-
lima, and in fact to all the Cotton States,
is the Cotton Harvester, or machine for
picking cotton. This is wonderful Ia
Dor saving concern, and as see the cot-i
ton pickers are beginning to take to
"strikes" and that sort of thing, will
provo O1 luCdlcNirEr1 SCl f1SO AL eAAN 49,
tpre. Manager Henry has splendid
patch of several acres at the grounds on
which to give this Harvester practical
test in November. Another display OF
peculiar utility is the fire hose and appa-
ratus, with which tla.o entire building will
be filled up. The horticultural E$hibits
will be grand. Mr.. Berckman, the we'll
known horticulturist, who has probably
done more for the South in this line than
all other men combined, will have s"-
perb exhibit from his Fruitland Nurse
ries. This will be perfect bower OF

CINCINNATI, Aug. 11.-llunts Grove,
which is situated on the Big Four rail-
road, few miles west of Cleveland and
20 miles west of this city, was the scene
of bloody riot at picnic of colored
people from the city last night. There
were several hundred people; mon and
women well provided with whisky,
razors and pistols.
The first bout was between two COL
ored women, Ida Griffin and Beatrice
Graham, who quarreled about lover
and went at each other with raZors till
both fell exhausted from loss of blood.
Beatrice is in Jail and Ida is in the hos
pital dangerously wounded. A ring of
spectators witnessed the bloody mill till
it was finished Full of whisky and in
famed by the sight Of blood the male
desperadoes began to vaunt their
prowess. Jim Chapman who has
served term in the penitentiary ex-
plotted big revolver, which he had
pointed at citizens of Cincinnati while
catching dogs, threw down the gauntlet
TO any man on the ground. Hal Hen
bricks, who murdered man in Cincin-
natl, took it up. Chapman began firing;
Hendricks responded with boulder,
landing it between Chapman's eyes,
smashing the frontal bone and laying
him out. Chapman soon recovered and
the battle was renewed, this time with
about equal numbers on each side. The
air resounded with the crack of the pis-
tolls. Spectators fed and hid. The visi-

GREATDAY ar WE.
Interesting Religious Services at an Old
Cnmp--A Great Crowd.

CENTREvILLE, Aug. 10.-The Wye
camp-meeting, which is usually held on
these well-known grounds. located
about seven miles from Centreville, is
now in session and has been well at
tended during the past week, and has
proven quite a success, from a religious
standpoint. Many able ministers Of the
Wilmington Conference are present to
assist the pastor in charge, the Rev.
Vaughn S. Collins, in his work. The
camp is usually held but 10 days, which
embraces one Sunday, and that is the
great day of the camp, with favorable
weather, and the people who attend on
that day are numbered by the thousand.
Yesterday was no exception, notwith-
standing the extreme hot weather, and
from early morning until night people
poured in from every direction until the
crowd was numbered at not less than
4,C00. In former years, however, the
attendance has reached from 5000 to
10000.
Religious services were held nearly
every hour in the day, and were well
attended. AT 8 a. IN. prayer and ex-
perience meeting was held. AT 1880
~ W IL A's VI W
Del, preached an eloquent sermon. At
p. m. children's meeting was held.
AT 3 o'clock the Rev. W. w. w. Wilson
preached. At $50 an Epworth League
meeting was held, conducted by the
Rev. v. s. Collins. And at 8 o'clock
the Rev. Alfred Smith, presiding elder
of the Easton district, preached.
The Wye camp-ground property was
decided to the Methodist Episcopal
Church of Centreville many years ago,
and. from that time the gatherings on
that old ground have increased, and
meetings Of great religious power have
been held, and many of the noblest sons
and daughters of Methodism claim it as
their religious birthplace. Many changes
during this time have been made, and
the oldcanvass tent has been replaced by
the handsome two-story cottages (now
numbering about 25), all of which are
comfortably, and, in some cases, luxuri-
ously furnished. The old temporary
board benches have been replaced by
comfortable pews, over which is erected
an immense tabernacle. The camp will
close ON Thursday next.
