ENQUIRER • SUN: COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1890.
UNDER FULL HEADWAY-
THE CHATTAHOOCHEE VALLEY
EXPOSITION FORMALLY
OPENED.
THE PRELIMINARY EXEECISES OVER AND
THE WHEELS OF THE GREAT
SHOW RUNNING SMOOTHLY.
AT THE GROUNDS.
The gates of the Chattahoochee Valley
Exposition were thrown open to the pub
lic yesterday.
The day was a lovely one. Nature cast
her sweetest smiles upon Columbus, as if
to encourage those who have labored so
faithfully for the success of the Exposi
tion.
The procession formed at No. 1 engine
house at 10:30 o’clock yesterday morning
and moved to the grounds in the order
announced yesterday.
The procession was an imposing one and
moved to the grounds without accident or
delay of any kind, thanks to the skill of
Mr. Richard Howard, the Marshal of the
Gay.
i'he procession was headed by Chief of
Police Beard and Lieutenant Ryckley,
mounted, followed by a platoon of police
on foot, all wearing their handsome new
uniforms for the first time.
Then came the Fourth Artillery Band,
one of the finest army bands in the ser
vice.
ine Columbus Guards, under command
of Lieutenant Harrison, followed the band
The Guards wore dress uniforms of Con-
federatejgrey, with white shakos. The
company presented a handsome appear
ance and won compliments on all sides.
Following the Guards were the city offi
cials of Columbus, Phenix City and Girard
and the officers and directors of the Expo
sition company, all in carriages drawn by
spirited steeds. Then came the Phenix
City Brass Band, which was followed by
the Columbus Fire Department, with Chief
Burrus in charge. The firemen also wore
their new uniforms, and the department
turned out in splendid shape.
OPENING CEREMONIES.
Upon reaching the grounds President,
Slade, Rev. J. B. K. Smith and the orator
of the day, Col. Lional C. Levy, took their
places in the band stand. Rev. Mr. Smith
invoked Divine Blessing upon the Exposi
sition.
In introducing Colonel Levy, President
Slade said it was but just to say that the
orator had only been informed the day
before that he would be called upon to de
liver the address.
“The english language is said to be a
rough language,” said President Slade,
“but Colonel Levy has proven by his ora
tory that its capacity for sweetness is
equal to the Aeolic and its perfection to
the classic attic Greek.”
The president then introduced the ora
tor, who was greeting with loud applause
as he arose and stood before the audience.
col. levy’s address.
Col. Levy spoke as follows:
Once again our goodly city welcomes to
her homes and hearthstones the guests of
the great Chattahoochee Valley Exposi
tion, pointing with conscious pride to the
garnered treasures of her hills and vales,
of her mills and manufactories, to her ex
panding commerce, and to the wonderful
progress she has made in the brief period
of two years since the first triumphant
Exposition was opened on these grounds,
a progress which would, indeed, seem like
a tale from the Arabian Nights but for the
material evidences which bear testimony
to the advance in every department
which conduces to the comfort, hap
piness and prosperity of a people;
a prosperity unprecedented and uninter
rupted in which manufactures, commer
cial business, agriculture and art have vied
With each other in thrift, expansion, im
proved systems and the adornment of our
homes. Our mills have increased their
production; our immense iron works and
foundries have, with large additions to
their plant, been unable to fully supply the
demand for their special products. Our
-merchants have so enlarged the area of
their trade as to double and, in some in
stances, treble the volume of their busi
ness and compete successfully with those
cities which had heretofore monopolized
this new territory. Within this period of
only two yeaTs our valuations by the
State and county digest of sworn
returns, shows an increase _ in the
City of Columbus alone in
real estate and manufactures owned by
our white population of £2,888,429, being
$7,3(57,884 in 1890 against $5,079,455 in
1888, and an increase in the amount of
city real estate owned by our colored
population of $113,795, being $223,787 in
1890 against $109,992 in 1888. In addition
to this gratifying exhibit of their thrift
and prosperity the tax digest shows also
an ownership of farm lands by our colored
population in this county of 4,680 acres.
During these two years past, no worthy
workman in the country or city has been
without constant employment for remu
nerative and satisfactory wages, no strikes
iia?e occurred, no enterprises been sus
pended, but to the contrary, contracts for
new buildings and improvements have but
waited upon the convenience of contractors
who have had more work than their re
sources could accomplish. Where, then,
the single track of one railroad stretched
-•eastward from our city, now upon three
different lines the iron coursers race neck
and neck along parallel tracks, diverging
■only in their several courses to the sea,
north, west and south, our through lines
stretch the lengthened way. Other rail
roads completed to the great coil fields of
Alabama pour into our lap those black
diamonds which transmute our iron and
cotton into gold in such abundance and at
such low prices as to render the use of
steam cheap as water-power, thus afford
ing us the choice for manufactures, trans
portation and domestic uses between
water-power, steam and electricity.
The race problem is working out its
own solution in the cordial good feeling,
perfect confidence and interdependent
interests of the white and colored people.
Our colored population is the best in the
whole South—industrious, conservative,
progressive, intelligent and prosperous.
Their schools, churches and commercial
enterprises reflect credit and honor alike
upon them and ourselves, furnishing the
best guarantees of peace, good will and
permanent prosperity the completest refu
tation of those malicious slanderers who
would create strife and dissension between
ns.
tot Fewer mortgages exist upon our farm
lands than at any time since the war,
abundant crops of cotton still whitening
our fields, and of golden-eared corn yet
standing in the shack, shows the generous
returns from our alluvial lands, and
fertile hillsides, upon which, in their
due season, grow the purpling
grape, the pear, the peach, the fig and
pommegranate in a very prodigality of
rich fruitage, enjoying a climate more
favored than any other upon earth. Our
winters are bnt as genial spring to those
of the frozen bosom of North and East,
and the bitter blinding blizzard of the
West. Our summers are free from the
fatal sunstroke to toilers under the benig
nant rays of Southern skies, while soft
breezes cool the star lit nights beneath
the Southern cross, and bring refreshing
slumbers with renewed strength for the
comming morrow. Lacking that so-
called “resistless energy” of the North and
West, which we call greed of gain, living
not for ourselves alone but for our fellow
men, far from the maddening maelstorm
where the crowd trample the weak, and
with the cry of “sauve qui pent,” rush
ruthlessly onward in the race for gold.
We live in the kindliest sympathies of
Southern hearts and homes and tender
human ties, under bluer skies and softer
sunlight, among fair women who glory in
their gentler womanhood; angels of grace
in time of peace, heroines in war, sovereign
queens over the hearts and homes of a race
of brave and loyal men who rejoice in
their dominion. Our public schools fur
nish instruction by day and by night, and
no seeker but shall find the way to knowl
edge; the humblest artisan may purchase
among ns his home for the rent which he
pays his landlord, and our city is fast be
coming a city of homes and freeholders
nestling in this valley of hope, of fertile
field, and vine-clad hills, lolled to rest by
the soft symphony of swift waters, waked
by the whirl of the spindle and the loom,
gladdened by the grace of God with abund
ance of “corn, wine and oil,” of “milk
and honey,” glorified by her beautifiul
women and brave men, she bids yon, each
and all, a loving cordial welcome to this
Exposition of her joy and gladness, and to
the honored directors of this noble enter
prise,God speed! and a prosperous consum
mation.
The eloquent speaker was frequently in
terrupted by rounds of applause, and at
the close of his beautiful address was
warmly congratulated by many of his
friends.
When Col. Levy finished speaking,
President Slade formally declared the Ex
position opened to the public and the
crowd which had assembled to hear the
opening address dispersed to see the
various attractions in the buildings and
about the grounds.
THE MAIN BUILDING.
The main building was a perfect palace
of beauty. The decerations were artistic
and exquisite, and all of the available
space was filled with well arranged and
attractive exhibits, which will be men
tioned in detail in later issues of the En-
quireb-Sun. The old relic department
is in this building, and is in charge of Di
rector Byington. The collection is un
doubtedly the finest ever seen at a South
ern exposition, and attracted hundreds of
people yesterday. The art department is
also located in the main building, and is
in charge of Director Richardson. This
department will prove one of the most
interesting and entertaining features of the
great show.
The fancy needlework department, su
perintended by Mrs. Martin, occupies
space in this building, and is perfect in
every detail. Hoars can be spent with
pleasure and profit in the main building.
machinery hall.
Machinery hall is an attractive place to
all classes of visitors. In this hall is
located the State mineral exhibit, which
has been seen this year only at the Colum
bus Exposition. The exhibit was arranged
yesterday by Mr. W. B. Pruden,
porter for the State Department,
which has it in charge. The
exhibit contains all of the choice speci
mens secured in the old geological survey.
Several fine county exhibits also have
space in this building, besides the ma
chinery display, which includes several
looms in full operation and a broom fac
tory engaged in the manufacture of
brooms. The building just south of ma
chinery hall contains the exhibits of Meri
wether and Muscogee counties, in addition
to other attractive displays.
THE LIVE STOCK DEPARTMENT.
“Every stall is full,” remarked Assist
ant Superintendent Winslow yesterday in
speaking of this department. “We will
ha ve to build new stalls. There are over
one hundred and fifty fine horses
here and others will arrive tonight.”
The live stock department includes a herd
of fine Jerseys belonging to Mr. J. F. Mil
ler, of Kansas; a herd of Ayershires, be
longing to Captain Lindsay, of Maryland.
Major Hinde, of Maryland, has on exhibi
tion a herd of Pole Angus and a herd of
Devons. Captain David J. Bailey, of
Griffin, has entered a fine herd of Jerseys.
Mr. Miller exhibits a young Stoke Pogis
bull, the finest ever seen in Georgia. Col.
Young and Hon. L. F. Garrard, of Mus
cogee, exhibit fine herds of Jerseys and
Devons. Colonel Perry, of Greenville, S.
C., exhibits a fine Holstein bull and a
drove of Poland-China hogs. Col. Lind
say exhibits a fine lot of Essex and Berk
shire hogs and Angora goats. The depart
ment includes many fine Alabama and
Georgia raised colts. A large number of
visitors were at the stalls yesterday, and
the farmers feel special interest in this de
partment.

aud is a great favorite here.
OTHER AMUSEMENTS.
The racing program yesterday afternoon
was interspersed with a number of amuse
ments. Miss Myrtie Peek made her first
appearance on the race coarse, and ran a
half mile against time, standing on two
horses. She made the half mile in 53 sec

from the grand stand, as she came down the
quarter stretch. Miss Peck is the most
famous lady rider in the world, and will
give some splendid exhibitions each day
during the Exposition.
There was an exciting chariot race with
four Shetland ponies to each chariot. One
train was driven by Miss Lizzie Oliver
Hunt, the pretty little daughter of Mr. W.
P. Hunt, and the other by Charley Hunt,
the little son of Vice-President T. J.
Hunt. Miss Lizzie Oliver Hunt won the

A Story of a Lewiston Boy Who Could
Throw Across the Diamond.
A Lewiston young man who plays a
good game of baseball and who has had
the proud position of first base upon a
hustling local nine, and who can speed a
baseball like a bullet, is very effeminate
in his manners and looks like anything
bnt a sport.
He was out visiting in New Hamp
shire, and while there the local ball toss-
ers looked at him with disgust They
called him a “dood” and said that he
was a “sissy.” He took it in good part
and said nothing. One day they laid out
a plan to make him tired of the town,
and they invited him to play baseball.
He said that he didn't play much of a
game, but that he would like to accom
modate them if possible. They were to
meet another nine in the same town, and
the boys were all ont to see a boy called
“Ratsy” “paste the balls into the Lewis
ton dude first baseman.”
The game began, and the young fellow
with the rodential name was pitching.
The first chance he got he snapped the
ball into the Lewiston boy at first and
the crowd jnst howled in glee, expecting
to see it go right through his hands.
More of them followed and he clung to
them rather bnnglingly at first, jnst for
fun. Some of them he muffed purposely
and some he fumbled, and all the time
“Ratsy” kept putting them along as
bard as he could, apparently trying to
catch the base runner off the first-.
All this time the crowd was laughing
jnst as hard as it could. Finally the
Lewiston boy, who can throw a ball like
an arrow from a bow, decided that it
was time to stop the picnic. “Ratsy”
slid one in to the first with all of his
power.* A sudden change came over the
Lewiston boy. He took it with a grace
that seemed new bom, and then he
straightened up and his arm flew back
and the ball went in. “Ratsy” had never
played baseball outside of bis native
hamlet. He had never handled red hot
pig iron or trifled with a high tension
electric current.
He had never been shot with a Iran
dred ton gun or kicked by a mule, bnt
this time he thought that he had experi
enced them all at once. The ball split a
finger, passed through his hand and hit
him in the stomach, and “Ratsy” pitch
ed no more that game. After that the
Lewiston ball player took everything
his reach, high, low, daisy cutters, foul
flies and all the rest, and there was not a
smile on the ball field that was not born
of admiration of him. After that he
was the lion of the hamlet. Anyway
this is the way some of his friends tell
the story.—Lewiston Journal.
Have Vou ? Many Millions Have
accepted James Pyle’s invitation to
try his wonderful discovery, Pyles
Pearlike; for easy washing and clean
ing. You couldn’t count them in a
lifetime. Some of the twelve million
housekeepers in this land must have
accepted very often. That’s the wav
with Pearline. The wise woman who
investigates, tries it: the woman who
tries it continues to use it. A daih
increasing sale proves it. The truth
is, there’s nothing so acceptable as
Pearline. Once accept its help, and
you’ll decline the imitations—they
don’t help you. It washes clothes or
cleans house. It saves labor and it
saves wear. It hurts nothing, but it’s
suited to everything. Try it when it
suits you, for it will suit you when you try it.

A Convenient Paper Pad Holder.
Every member of the noble army of
scriveners should feel grateful for a new
paper pad holder which has recently
come out at London. The holder is t
square of wood, with a raised flat bor
der on the left side pnd across the bot
tom; the pad of paper fits into the angle,
and the whole block can thus be held
with the greatest possible ease in the
left hand, in any position most conven
ient to the writer.
The underneath part of the paper pad
is a sheet of thick blotting paper, and as
each sheet is tom off when covered it
can be thrust in between the holder and
pad, not only without fear of blotting,
but also thereby helping to maintain
the pad at the same level to the end. To
those who love to scribble their lucu
brations on their knee, in bed or any
where, in fact, except at a desk, an in
vention like this paper pad and holder
will come as a most decided boon and
blessing.—New Yotit Journal.
PRESIDENT HARRISON WILL NOT CALL
CONGRESS TOGETHER.
Washington, November 5.—Postmas
ter-General Wanamaker today, in answer
to an inquiry by a representative of the
Associated Press, said that he did not be
lieve that there was a probability of an
extra session of Congress. Two other
members of the cabinet, who were unwill
ing to be quoted by name, said, in re
sponse to similar questions, “There will
be no extra session.”
Robbed of Its Poetry,
Dr. Nachtigal, the celebrated African
explorer, was once the guest of a rich
Hamburg merchant. The merchant’s
son, a young man of somewhat senti
mental temperament, said that his dear
est wish was to ride across the desert on
the back of a camel. He thought such
a ride must be very poetical indeed.
“My dear young friend,” replied the
explorer, “I can tell yon how you can
get a partial idea of what riding a camel
on the desert of Africa is like. Take an
office stool, screw it up as high as possi
ble, and put it into a wagon without any
springs: then seat yourself upon the
stool and have it driven over uneven
and rocky ground during the hottest
weather of July or August after you
have had nothing to eat or drink fbr
twenty-four hours, and then you will
get a faint idea of how delightfully po
etic it is to ride on a camel in the wilds
of Africa.”—London Tit-Bits.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IN NEW ROCHELLE.
New Rochelle, N. Y., November 5.—
A disastrous fire is raging here. It started
in the cellar of the Ferguson building,
owned by George Ferguson, grocer. The
cellar is stored with oil. The volunteer
fire department of the village was prompt
ly on hand, but unable to stand the
flames. The fire spread rapidly in a
northerly direction from the Ferguson
building, and the entire block (11a.m.) is
involved. Fire apparatus from Mt. Vernon
and Portchester have arrived. The New
Rochelle bank, situated in the Fergnson
building, was wholly consumed. The con
cerns that have suffered are Ware & Bar
ber’s dry goods establishment, J. L. Co-
nant, druggist, and Mrs. Byrnes, boots and
shoes. Flames crossed Main street, and
two frame dwellings now burning. Loss
on Ferguson building fully $100,000, and
from present outlook total loss probably
$400,000.
At 1 p. m. the fire was gotten under
control. The loss is now estimated at
$175,000.
A Dude Doused with Molasses.
While two young women were passing
Lincoln’s drug store at Ogden avenue and
Congress street Sunday evening an ele
gantly dressed young man accosted them
and insisted on accompanying them.
His advances were repelled, but this did
not subdue the importunate snob. Find
ing verbal protest unavailing one of the
young women, who had just come with
her companion from a neighbor's house,
where she had borrowed a quart of
syrup, flung the contents of the syrup
pail at the head of the dude. The young
man hailed a passing cab and was driven
to the West Side natatorium to get
cleansed. The woman washed the syrup
off her hands in Lincoln’s drug store.—

Those Haunting: Airs.
The way that a popular tune puts ont
its invisible grappling machinery and
anchors itself in the mind is one of the
psychological mysteries. The first time
you hear it yon don’t care—possibly you
may even be glad you heard it. The
next time there is a dull, ap prehensive
throb; then there is a thrill of pain, and
after that an acute desire to hurl one’s
self into humanity and extract gore
from the man who invented it.—Wash

Crushed steel—made by crushing in a
