A Gem of Beauty and Art for the
 Connoisseur.
Being a Description of the Art Exhibits. Curos, Needle Work, Embroidery,
 Etc., Contained on the Second Floor

Saturday at room, as the upper floor of Floral Hall had been put in |,oodition several days eviously f0r the display of exhibits, the re- |norter concluded to visit it and describe to the readers of the |GRApH1c the,many articles of virtu, |of art and of patient, painstaklng labor which the ladies of Arkansas kindly displayed for the delectation |d those who should, from pride of statehood, curiosity or relaxation, | ake occasion to visit our State Fair.
 In our former description of the |exhibits of Floral Hail we, from lack of space and time, failed to describe in extenso the display of plants, etc exhibited by Florists IA. A. Harper and Mrs. M. Mitchell. On Mr. Harper's table the thing which most appeals to the curiosity |of the visitor to the hall is the banana tree which towers above it's |companlon plants to the height of |l4 feet. The tree is from the |0rinoco river country, in South
 America, is very fourishing, and
 has now growing on it twenty-one
 bananas. There is also growing
 beside it one of it's cuttings. which is also fourishing. Also worthy of
 mention in Mir. Ills exhibit is the
 oubar cactus, 2 feet in height, Sat- suma orange, Australian oak, palms,
 begonias, ginger plant, ferns, Fics |Orruboer plant, etc.
 Mrs. Mitchell had not returned as
 yet, and the reporter was not suf- .feiently versed in botany to know
 of himself the names of tbe exten-
 siye varieties of her palms, ferns,
 flowers, etc, and with just mention
 of her fine callacasia and screw
 plants, we will proceed upstairs.
 As 1t was too early for those who
 went to their homes for dinner to
 have returned, the reporter stood
 helplessly in the middle of the floor,
 unable to proceed with his business,
 when Mrs. Phil Jacobs kindly vol unteered to assist him till relieved |by the arrival of some of the
 regular attaches. In her pleasaL
 Company the reporter proceeded to the preserve department, and right
 here let him implore the Fair direc- tors to see to it that in future the different exhibits be properly tagged with name of exhibitor and of article exhibited. Although there is no
 paucity of exhibits, there certainly IS a dearth of proper labels, and were it not for the intelligence of the lady who so kindly volunteered her assistance, the reporter could have made but a very sorry show Ing. As it is, not one-tenth of the articles can be men toned owing to such lack.
 First on the list comes the exhibit |f Mrs. r. o. McGehee, consisting l ol about a dozen jars of preserves and pickles, namely, huckleberries, Olackberries, pears, peaches. apples, sweet pickles, plums, and catsup. Mrs. H. E. Williams, East 12th Street, displays huckleberries and peaches.
 Mrs. B. A. McG ehee displays psars and peaches.
