ENQUIRER-SUN: COLUMBUS; GEORGIA, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1890.
A BRILLIANT SUCCESS.
COLUMBUS DAY AT THE GREAT
EXPOSITION.
A FINE PROGRAM AND INTEBEST NEVEB
LAGGED—EXCITING BACES—BAL
LOON ASCENSION AND PABA-
\ CHUTE LEAP.
Columbus Day at the Exposition proved
a brilliant success.
The crowd was large and enjoyed the
big show to the fullest extent.
The program for the day was full of at
tractive features, and interest never lagged.
During the forenoon the visitors amused
themselves by going through the .main
building and machinery hall, which are
filled with attractive and interesting ex
hibits of almost every conceivable variety.
The live stock department came in for a
good share of attention. This feature of
the Exposition is unusually fine, and ex
cites great admiration among all those who
feel an interest in live stock.
EXCITING BACES.
The races were fine, and created great
enthusiasm among the thousands of peo
ple on the grand stand.
The first race was trotting, 2:30 class,
purse $200. There were five entries for
this race—Valentine, Bon Mot, Trim,
Mascott Bob and Sam Wilkes.
The first heat was won by Trim; time
2:324. Valentine came second, Sam
Wilkes third and Bon Mot fourth.
Bon Mot, the favorite, won the second
heat; time 2:30. Maseott Bobb,came sec
ond, Sam Wilkes third and Valentine
fourth.
The favorite also won the third heat;
time 2:30. Masdott Bob came second,
Sam WilkM third and Valentine fourth.
Bon Mot also won the fourt Inheat, giv
ing him the race. Mascott came second,
Valentine third and Trim fourth; time
2£3.
The second race was running, one and
one-quarter mile dash; purse $250. Burch,
Grover, Panama and Repudiator entered
for this race. Burch won, Grover second;
time 2:12.
This race was intensely exciting, and
nearly everybody on the grand stand rose
to their feet as the flyers came down the
home stretch. The applause was deafen
ing as the favorite passed under the string
and the time, 2:12 was recorded.
The third race was running, half mile
heats, purse $150. There were eight en
tries, Fitz Lee, John G., Billy Bush, Cre
ole, Colonel Cox, Henry Hardy, Cogmore
and Jim Simmons.
The first heat was won by Henry Har-
day, time 51. .Fitz Lee came second and
Creole third.
This race was not completed on account
of darkness. It will be finished just be
fore the other races this afternoon. Great
interest is felt in the result, as the favor
ite was beaten in the first heat.
THE BECOBD BBOKEN.
The most thrilling race ever witnessed
on the Columbus race course, took place
yesterday afternoon. This was a race
against the best time ever made on the
course by Miss Myrtie Peek, who drove
Silver Tail, the famous pacer, with Jack-
go-Lucky as a running mate in double har
ness to a 00 pound wagon. Mr. Demor-
est drove Sleepy Tom as a helper. Miss
Peek wore a neat habit of red velvet, and
presented an attractive appearance as she
passed l efore the judges’ stand, driviug
.her noble team. The race against time
•was a thrilling one from the start, and
grew more and more exciting,' and as Miss
Peek came down the home stretch and
passed under the string she was
greeted with tremendous and prolonged
applause from the grand stand. The mile
was made in 2:12, and the record for the
Columbus race course was broken by Miss
Myrtie Peek, the champion lady rider and
driver of the world.
THE BALLOON ASCENSION.
The crowd was eager to witness the bal
loon ascension and paiacliute leap by Prof.«
Jenkins. It came off promptly at 4
o’clock, under the most favorable circum
stances. The big air craft rose majesti-
•cally just in front of the grand stand and
rapidly ascended. Scarcely a breath of
wind was stirring, and the balloon went
straight up, almost like a rocket,
-in plain view of all. The
Aeronaut performed daring feats on the
trapese while the balloon was going Up.
"When the craft had reached a point far up
•toward the clear blue sky, the aeronaut
polled the rope which held the parachute
in place and it came down like a shot for
some distance. Gradually the parachute
gracefully unfolded and slowly descended
to the earth. The aeronaut and parachute
landed in the grounds in full view of
everybody. It was pronounced the pret
tiest ascension and leap ever made in
Georgia.
EXPOSITION NOTES.
One of the most interesting sights in
machinery hall is an exhibit by Lyon
Bishop, broom manufacturers of Griffin.
These gentlemen have machinery for the
manufacture of brooms at work in the
building, and brooms are made in plain
view of visitors. The process is an inter-
vsting one. Captain J. Mark Bishop is in
eharge of the exhibit,
t J. W. Pease’s Sons have the largest and
handsomest exhibit of pianos and organs
at the Exposition. The celebrated Hard
man and sweet toned Kimball pianos were
admired by all who saw them.
The exhibit of the Chattahoochee Brew
ing Company is superintended by Mr. Carl
Koechlin, one of the cleverest men extant.
The exhibit reflects great credit on Mr.
Koechlin and his company.
The Talbot county exhibit will be com
pleted today. This exhibit is a fine one,
and required six cars to bring it to Colum
bus. Manager Gorman is assisted in the
arrangement of the exhibit by Mr. Walter
K. Dennis, of Talbotton.
Meriwether county makes a splendid
showing. About the only thing missing
yesterday was the genial face of Editor
Revill, of the Vindicator.
Muscogee county has a splendid exhibit,
and the people of Columbus are proud
of it.
The live stock department was fre
quented by a large number of interested
spectators yesterday.
The Little World excites the wonder and
admiration of everybody.
The visitors all say that the Equine
Jumbo is the biggest horse in the wcfrld.
There are plenty of side shows about the
grounds.
The Harris county exhibit attracted a
large number of visitors yesterday, includ
ing a good many Harris county people.
The FarraDd & Votey organ at J. W.
Pease’s Sons’ exhibit attracted much at;
tention. It is certainly a handsome in
strument. The New England organ, so
well known and popular, held its own, as
usual.
The Eagle and Phenix looms were in
full operation yesterday, manufacturing
cloth. iThis was a novel sight to many of
the visitors.
The ladies cafe, by Mrs. Dixon and
Mrs. Black, was a popular place yesterday.
These ladies served excellent dinners, and
were well patronized. Situated in the
main building, it was most a convenient
place to visit.
The center of attraction yesterday in
the main building was the lovely Knabe
piano, valued at $1,000, at J. W. Pease’s
Sons’ exhibit. It was pronounced by
competent critics to be the acme of perfec
tion in tone and workmanship.
Hon. T. H. Kimbrough, of Catania,
master of the State Grange, was among
the visitors at the Exposition grounds yes
terday. Mr. Kimbrough is one of the Vice-
Presidents, and has done good work for
the Exposition.
One of the greatest wonders of the age
is the Little World, on exhibition in the
main building at the Exposition.
Master Geo. V. Chase, the eight-year-
old son of Mr. G. E. Chase, of Cuthbert, a
little musical wonder, will perform every
afternoon at 3 o’clock on different musical
instruments at Wall & Chase’s booth, near
center of main building. It is quite a
treat to hear him. He is quite small, and
performs perfectly.
The Little World, the most marvelous
piece of mechanism of the present day, is
on exhibition in the main building. Your
visit to the Exposition is incomplete unless
you have seen it.
MISS MYRTIE PEEK,
OUR OWN INDUSTRY.
THE LEADING LADY EQUESTRIAN OF THE
WORLD.
Yesterday afternoon a reporter had a
pleasant conversation with Miss Myrtie
Peek, the heroine of yesterday’s race
against time, in which a record of 2:12
was made.
Miss Peek is a handsome lady, with a
petite figure, weighing 121 pounds; a face
with regular features, well bronzed with
the kisses of the sun, steady gray eyes and
a firm, sweet mouth, all denoting courage
and daring. Her muscles are as hard as
iron, and when once upon the Back of a
thoroughbred, whether sitting or standing,
she has absolute control of the animal.
Her positions are always graceful, and she*
at all times tries to please her audience,
and keeps her engagements.
Miss Peek was born in Mendon, Mich.,
March 11, 1868. She is the daughter of a
farmer and handled and rode young horses
from the time she was a very little girl.
Since becoming sixteen years of age she
has beat all Tong distance riding records,
and short ones too, and has accomplished
some of the most wonderful feats ever
thought of. Her five-mile record is 9:33,
change of horses included; ten miles,
20:1^; twenty miles, 40:21; thirty miles,
59:l|; fifty miles, 1 hr. 50 min.; one hun
dred miles, 3 hrs. 0 min. 59 seconds. Her
second long distance ride was twenty
miles against Bell Cook’s time at Roches
ter, N. Y. She beat it in 45:59, and sub
sequently reduced her own time to that
first given. All those long distance racers
are thefastest on record. Miss Peek’s second
twenty mile ride was at Minneapolis for
$1,500 and the championship, which she
won, and the next was against a Mexican
at Kalamazoo, and she won again. She
rode thirty miles at Los Angeles and fifty
at Santiago, Cal., against a colored long
distance rider, and in both races continued
her uninterrupted success. The 100 mile
ride was a simple test of her endurance
and skill, and it stands today unap
proached and unapproachable.
In her Roman races, standing on the
backs of two running horses with one foot
on each horse, one-half mile on a half mile
track in 52£ seconds; one mile on a mile
track, same way of riding, in 1:49 seconds.
She has driven a team of running horses
to a sixty-five pound skeleton wagon, one
mile in 1:48 seconds, and the pacer Sijver
Tail, with running mate, a mile in 2:13£.
Miss Peek has eighteen fine horses on the
grounds. The records of some of the ani
mals are as follows: Stroutia, trotter,
2:25i; J. K., pacer, 2:19J; Mascot Bob,
trotter, 2:294; DeBarry, trotter, 2:19i;
Lackey Girl, trotter, no record; Silver
Tail, pacer, 2:16£ half mile track and 2:11
mile track; You Bet, 2:05f mile track and
2:07f half mile track. The other horses
in the combination are runners.
Miss Peek will give performances each
day during the Exposition.
MANUFACTURERS’ DAY.
THE ELEGANT EXHIBIT OF THE CHATTA
HOOCHEE BBEWEEY.
The first thing attracting attention upon
entering machinery hall, at the Exposition
grounds, is what appears to be a monster
tub, inverted. It proves far different,
however, upon a closer inspection. It is a
fac simile of one of the huge tanks used at
the Chattahoochee Brewery in the process
of brewing its famous beer. This invert
ed tank forms the roof of a booth, under
which is a complete cooper’s shop. Mr.
Franke, the head cooper, give* daily exhi
bitions of how the strong little kegs which
hold the foaming beverage is made from
oak timber grown in the swamps of Rui-
sell county. Carl Koechlin, the famous
Carl, is in charge of the exhibit, and is al
ways ready and willing to show visitors
the different processes in the business.
Several very large sacks stand near by,
which contain malt, hops and cerealine,
this last, a product of Southern corn,
which is used in brewing pale beer, which
Is the favorite kind with Southern people.
The Chattahoochee Brewery is strictly a
home institution, built with home capital,
and using, as far as possible home mate
rials. The cyoress used in their tanks is
taken from the banks of the Chattahoo
chee, the white oak used in the manufac
ture of kegs is cut from the Uchee swams,
in Russell county, Ala., and the cerealine
is made from Southern com.
This is one of the most ^pteresting ex
hibits on the ground, and every one should
avail themselves of the opportunity to see
it.
THIRTEEN DOLLARS A PAIR.
PROGRAM TO BE CARRIED OUT AT THE
EXPOSITION fODAY.
Today has been set apart by the man

What's the use sitting all day in the house with
a bad cold or hacking cough, when Dr. Boll’s
Cough Syrup will cure yoo in » short time.
A DAINTY BIT IN LADIES’ FOOT WEAR.
Thirteen dollars a pair for ladies’ slip
pers! Just think of it! And yet a re
porter saw a number yesterday at that
price. They were on exhibit at W. R.
Bedell’s space at the Chattahoochee Val
ley- Exposition. They were of the cele
brated J. C. Bennett make, and were the
most beautiful goods the reporter ever
saw. They were slippers in silver and
gold for evening wear, and are warranted
not to tarnish. Mr. Bedell has a lovely
exhibit of all kinds of shoes, taken from
his stock, and everyone says he will take
first premium. An immense crowd in
spected the exhibit yesterday.
ARMED TRAMPS BOARD A TRAIN
AND TAKE POSSESSION, BUT WERE NEAT
LY TRAPPED.
Birmingham, Ala., November 6.—[Spe
cial.]—A gang of twelve armed white
tramps took charge of a southbound Louis
ville and Nashville freight train last night,
just south of Decatur, having boarded the
train at that place. The crew were com
pletely at the mercy of the tramps, and
could dp nothing but submit. The tramps
compelled the train men to let them ride.
Further down the road the tramps all got
into one car, aud were locked up bytthe
conductor. On their arrival here they
Were jailed.
RAILROAD GOSSIP.
ITEMS OF INTEREST TO THE FRATERNITY
AND PUBLIC.
W. R. Busenbark, general passenger
agent of the Chicago, St. Paul and Kan
sas City, has been made traffic manager
of that line, and Bob Hair, a well known
passenger man, succeeds Busenbark as
general passenger agent. Hair, a few
years ago, was an ordiuary tack hammer
passenger agent of the Chicago and North
western. He was suddenly made general
passenger agent of that line, and “couldn’t
hold the job down.” Recently he has been
Eastern agent of the C. H. P. and K. C.,
and now he is promoted again.
The Central Railroad’s contract with the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers ex
pired on the 31st. Representatives of the
Brotherhood are now in conference with
the managers at Savannah and a new con
tact will probably be signed in a day or
two. A change in the system of paying
from the per diem, which is now in vogue,
to the mileage basis, wilf likely be made.
The mileage system is generally used on
the large systems now.
A rumor comes from Cincinnati to the
effect that D. S. Hill will be made general
manager of the Queen & Crescent system,
Or at least the Alabama Great Southern
and the Cincinnati Southern railroads, to
succeed R. Corwell. Hill is connected
with one of Senator Brice’s Ohio roads,
and if he is appointed the Brice-Thomas
people will be responsible for the appoint
ment. The News is unable to say how
much truth there is in the rumor.
It is now given out authoritatively that
James M. Edwards, vice-president of the
Louisville, New Orleans and Texas rail
road, will succeed J. T. Harahan as gen
eral manager of that line. Mr. Harahan,
it will be remembered, was recently elected
second vice-president of the Illinois Cen
tral. Before Harahan’s appointment to
the Louisville, New Orleans and Texas
road, Mr. Edwards was vice-president and
general manager both. He will resume
both these positions.
CONSOLIDATED BETUBNS.
Seale, November 6.—[Special.]—News
of the great Democratic victory causes
general rejoicing. It is even more than
we Loped for. Russell county, we are
proud to say, did her whole patriotic duty,
and gave Hon. W. C. Oates, Democratic
nominee for Congress, a handsome major
ity. Here is the result of voting by beats:
Girard—Oates 190, Treadwell 50.
Marvyn—Oates 78, Treadwell 28.
Crawford—Oates 78, Treadwell 12.
Uchee—Oates 102, Treadwell 0.
Hurtsboro—No election.
Oswichee—No election.
Hatchechubbee—Oates 68, Treadwell 1.
Seale—Oates 127, Treadwell 10.
Jemigan—Oates 72, Treadwell 0.
Glennville—Oates 95, Treadwell 23.
Total—Democrats 810, Republicans 124;
Democratic majority 686. "
THE WESLEYAN CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE.
Atlanta, November 5.—The board of
trustees of the Wesleyap.Christian Advo
cate have been in session in this city since
3 o’clock p.Jm. |Tuesdav, November 4th.
After patient and thorough investigation
of all the matter relating to the publica
tion of the paper, it was decided to have it
printed by contract, under direction of the
board and business manager. The con
tract was awarded to an Atlanta printer,
and the Wesleyan will be printed in that
city after January 7th, 1891. Rev. T. T.
Christian was elected assistant editor and
business manager, and Rev. Dr. W. F.
Glenn editor-in-chief.
8TANLEY ARRIVES IN NEW YORK.
New York, November 6.—The Teu
tonic, with Henry M. Stanley and party on
board, arrived this morning.
T
tten Should Wear Corsets.
It may sound awful to say so. but do
yon know I think that men ought to
wear corsets? Not steels, stiff whale
bones and strong lacings and all that,
but something to remind them that nat
ure intended them to stand straight, and
that they should lay claim to a sugges
tion of a waistline. When a man gets
to be 30 cr a little more he goes all to
pieces in looks, unless he is made of un
common metal. At 30 a man is married
or gives up the idea. Whatever his con
dition, his main object in life is to take
comfort. He takes comfort.
In a year or two his shoulders, that
were firm and square, take on a pathetic
droop. The coat that was buttoned up
with so much pride and showed off the
symmetrical back and waist in such fine
lines is apt to swing open, the smooth
front becomes a wrinkled nonentity, and
that waist line, that was so symmetrical,
is lost in what is called a “stomach.” I
know some men take great pride in that
comfortable looking stomach. It does
show that life is worth the living, bnt it
also proves thxyt a man is getting on in
years, and each year adds several inches
to the waist measure, and—and—it isn’t
graceful if it is comfortable.
Now, a corset or band, say eight or
ten inches wide, made with heavy cords
stitched in solidly to give firmness, in
the front several pieces of silk elastic
tape and the back provided with buckles
and straps, would not be uncomfortable
to wear and would be a support for the
stomach that cannot stand too much
comfort without a sacrifice of symmetry
and grace.—Chicago Herald.
They’ve Lost Millions.
A thief undiscovered belongs as much
to the outfit of a phenomenally famous
singer as her indispensable rouge pot.
The lack of a perfect shape does not sig
nify, but the lack of a thief would he
ruin. Adelina Patti has been robbed by
night and by day, in Europe and Amer
ica, on shore and at sea, in hotels and on
railway trains. Carlotta Patti and Chris
tine Nilsson and—but why mention
names.
An incredible amount of diamonds
and jewels have disappeared in this way
without ever turning up again. Bnt the
lady artists are forgiving. They do not
prosecute the thieves. They do not go
to the police. They do not offer rewards.
Perhaps they know that the gold in their
throats can easily be coined, and that
their rippling notes can soon be changed
into rows of pearls. They are easy go
ing and soon forget their loss. A royal
present to a lady artist which does not
A* stolen has missed its object, and
cases have indeed occurred where pres-»
ents which were never given were stolen.

Double Sashes for Railway Cars.
In consequence of the decided addition
to the comfort of travelers of double
sashes in passenger cars by reason of the
prevention ofthg admission of cold air
in winter and dust in summer several
railway companies have decided to use
double windows altogether in the future,
and this conclusion has probably been
hastened by the fact that many of their
best day coaches and chair cars rival
special cars in the richness of their
plushes and interior decorations, and
they cannot afford to have such fittings
rapidly destroyed by the dust.
The comparative ease with which a
car fitted with double windows can be
heated in winter is also a consideration.
They not only prevent cold air leaking
in where it is not wanted, bnt they also
interpose a layer of comparatively still
air between the warm air in the car and
the cold atmosphere outside, thereby
preventing the loss of considerable heat
by conduction and convection.—New
Orleans Picayune.
A Dentist’s Wages.
Dr. Anderson, the Fifth avenue den
tist, who pings up the molars of the
Four Hundred, says that he has made
$500 in a day, but only once. A lady
came to him who wanted diamonds put
in a gold filling of her front teeth. “It
was evident,” said Dr. Anderson, “that
slie had just come into her inheritance.
She seemed so anxious to spend money.
I didn’t approve of the diamonds, and
told her so; but she would have them,
and I humored her to such an extent
that my day’s work netted me $500.
What do I make ordinarily? Well, I
charge $20 an hour, and I rarely work
more than five hours. People don’t care
to come before 10 in the morning, and
late in the afternoon the light is not
good. One hundred dollars a day is
about the extent of what a dentist can
make, and it is the most exacting of all
the professions.”—New York Press.

A Salamander Clock.
That a clock would continue to run in
the midst of roaring flames for any
length of time few people would be
lieve, yet that such was the case in the
fire which destroyed the Sycaway villa
near Troy has been proved conclusively.
From the rains of the building was
taken a small calendar clock. The
hands had stopped at 11:40 o’clock, or
nearly am hour and a half after the fire
broke out. The calendar dial showed
the hand at Sunday. The clock was de
stroyed by the heat and flames beyond
all hope of repair. It must have con
tinued to run long after the villa was a
blackened ruin. It was found in the
center of a pile of debris.—Albany Ex
press.
Francis Wilson’s Success.
To what do I attribute my success in
burlesque opera? Well, I imagine that
it is principally due to the manner in
which I work. I like the stage and love
to act. From the moment I appear 1
enter with zest into the fun of the per
formance, and the humor is all from the
heart. And what comes from the heart
is always convincing.—Francis Wilson
in Kate Field’s Washington.
The floating island in Sadawga lake,
in the town of Whittingham, Vt., is one
of the most remarkable freaks of nature
and one of the greatest curiosities in the
world. The island contains over a hun
dred acres, and it actually floats upon
the top of the water.
