Pretty Ankles at the Crossings ami Pretty Fores at the Counters—A Merry .llediey of Cross-eyed Polls, Diamonds, Hosiery, Hon Hons, Trinkets and Toys. The constant, unpleasant rain and the “awful” slush were certainly the main features of yester day' a3 far as the weather was concerned, but tho combination, though strong, could nut dampen or sully Christmas enthusiasm. The business thoroughfares of tho city were fairly alive with customers from early morning until late last evening. There was never a better day to really enjoy a jaunt and a trip with the crowd through the various stores that offered their holiday inducements to anxious purchasers. An Enquiri-R-Sun reporter fell -into the crowd and followed it around. All of what he saw he couldn’t begin to tell if would, and he really wouldn't tell it lie could. ONE THING HE SAW, and that was hundredsof pretty girlsof ail kinds, ages, sizes and social classes. They were the girls propur and entirely themselves. Flint an cos metics cut no figure iu t heir make-up, anc si s and satins were, if possessed, left at home. On other thing was left at home, and that was ic awful and austere dignity th.it conscious young womanhood is wont on many occasions to as tatine. They thronged the streets and stores in bevies, with faces all covered with Bmiles and with thoughts pointed directly on things mos pleasant. One thing about the toilette of the girls that was especially NOTICEABLE (IN A PROFESSIONAL WAY by the reporter) was the fine display of pretty ho siery. A girl would slart across the street, give her back skirls a most bewitching clutch, nnd then fairly split the mud. Of course, tho dress had to be protected, though the young man look ing through the drug sore window or from tho corner across the way, did got a glimpse of a pretty pulr of stockings, and a pretty pair of an kles. Iu the various heidqunrtcrs for holiday goods, Christmas presents, and tho like, there were the same unusual throngs of customers. Pretty girls as saleswomen, pretty girls us purchasers, and numbers of the boys to flirt and be flirted with, The reporter tried to And out what people were buying, but the purchases were so varied that nothing more than a general idea can bo given. The elder customers, who were to assume to respective families of small children the role of Santa Claut or Kris Krinkle, paid their most devoted attention to the counters where dolls, baby sets, carpenter shops and the liko were the principal articles. It was stated by a certain dealer that there were never before in the history ofColumbus such rv great quantity, such hand some and such cheap dolls brought to the city. The great waxen blonde, she lay back in her elegant attire of rich silks and fine satins, with her pearly complexion and rosy tints, was the attraction for many, while the double-faced clown with bells and tassels and internal crying machine, met the admiring gaze of hundreds of others. Thoy were, in fact, of all shapes, kinds and fashions. One young man of giddy, but de signing disposition, visited every toy stove in town, whoro there were lady salesmen, trying to And two cross-eyed waxen babies. Oi’courat;, he failed; but, of course, also IIE HAD ALL THE PUN in tho world looking lor them. Books und cards and such souvenirs were bought and sold by the I thousand. The jewelry stores were crowded all j day with the wealthier classes, who made this ' the opportunity .oi increasing their own stock of gold and diamonds, or sought by such donations to express to others their appreciation of friend- ship or affection. In the dry goods stores table linen of various kinds was largely purchased. Many, with a view to practical benefit, bought cloaks, wraps, gloves, and other articles of personal adorn men t and comfort, to beautify aud to gratify. Furniture wagons with household articles were seen upon the streets in unusual numbers finding their way to various destinations. Everywhere, as said, there was slush and mud and damp clothes, but it is a rare tiling that one meets us many 1 appy, beaming und contented fuees upon any one day. hero who own flue horses, aud if we have no track they will be compelled to dispose of them. Mr. Flonrnoy’s Bessie, which won the race yes terday is a daughter of Paucout, who was sold at MoFerran’s sale in Kentucky for *’28,000. Pan coast’s sire was the noted Daniel Lambert. Messrs. B. T. Hatcher, J. B. H3lst, <1. M. Wil liams and numerous other geutlomcn have flue horses, which they are compelled to keep on the surrounding plantations. There is no necessity for this, as Columbus can have an elegant park and track if some enterprising men will just take hold and bring the commons commissioners and aldermen to view the matter in tho right light.

Milady’s coachmen draw the line now at dyed and imitation fur caps. Plush traveling bags are seen; also bags of the skin ol animals exhibited at Central Park. Dinner favors are much in the line of toys of the comical kind to make conversation lively. No woman of fashion can have too much jet on the waist and skirt of her dress nowadays. Pincushions nowadays filled with sachet do double duty, the haudkerchiefs going under neath. Women wearing crape veils are something of a cold water sight at a fashionable church wed ding. A doctor who can’t be married has come out saying sealskin sacques are not a healthy gar ment. Solid silver lamps with exquisite cut-glass globes are certainly “appropriate Chr stmas pres ents.” Fur boas are the rage beyond a doubt, and the clay is not far off when victoriues will come back again. There seems to have been made a vast quan tity of cape Newmarkets out of the same goods this season. White plush opera wraps are said by women who ought to know, to be “too trying to become fashionable.” Court trairs appear to become more and more elaborate for ceremonious occasions, and the woman not used to them stumbles in keeping up with the procession. The girl of the period, who astonished even the natives by wearing a white broadcloth new- market as an opera wrap, thinks people were stupid to have mistaken it for another kind of garment. THE RACE YESTERDAY. A Close nnd Exciting Exhibition—Won by Mr. Flournoy’s Bessie—some Remarks on Columbus’ Need of u Suitable Track and Park, There was a trotting rice yesterday afternoon at Star park, one mile dash, best three in five, for a purse of $73. There were three entries, name ly: Dr. Bruce’s gray pao-sr, Mr. Jim Alexander’* Oswichee Bay, and Bc33ie, owned by Mr. J. F. Flournoy. The race was close and exciting, and was witnessed by a large number of spectators. Dr. Bruce’s gray pacer won the first and third heats, and Bessie won the other three and tho race, Mr. Joe Thayer drove Bessie. Mr. Gus Boles drove Dr. Bruce’s gray pacer, and Oswichee Bay was driven by Mr. Jim Alexander. The ground now occupied by the buildings and Btables of Starp irk has been donated by the city to the Georgia Midland railroad, aud as soon as the road is ready to claim it the city will be with out a race course. Such a progressive city as CCo lumbus should, by all means, have a suitable en closure for the recreation of its citizens. It would be a splendid investment for the city to donate to a company of responsible men twenty or thirty acres, say south of the colore 1 cemetery, for this purpose. That place would make a race track and ball ground second to no.ie in the south. It is as level as a floor, and the buildings, etc., now at Star Park, could be removed there without much expense. Besides the advantage of having a fine race course, Columnus will nave a fiir sometime a id our city fathers should have an eye to the future. A good many gentlemen in the city have blooded horses and they are anxmus for a suitable place to winter and exercise them. Atlanta has hitherto had no such place and she now fuels the need of it. We understand that that city is making a magnificent park for such a i pnrpose. Macon has always bad a fine course I and she is noted ror her splendid horses. And that is probably the reason why that city can make such a close bid for the state fair. There is no reason why the state fair should not be held here, as there are thousands of Georgians anxious for a good opportunity to visit the queen city of the G’eattahoochee. If we can not get the state fair we can combine with Alabama and have aod west Gee rgiaa East Alabama exhibition.

I am now forty-two years old. My pains wore so great that 1 have been confine J to my bed from eight to ten months at a time, and two years ago I was in bed about nineteen months perfectly helpless, being afilicted all over. At that time, having tried every known remedy before, I commenced the use of Swift’s Specific. 1 used about two dozen bottles. I have never had anything to act so promptly and efficiently in mv life. My health and vigor were restored; I can walk and ride as well as when a boy. My business is such as to keep me on my feet about fourteen hours during the day, but I go through without any incon venience. I can cheerful!v recommend S. H.
