THE A T L AN T A WEEKLY SUN.
OGtEXHOnPK PARK.
Another Pine Success.
The Managers ti** ^' a ^ r ^ iaVG reason
to feel flattered at the continued success
of the exposition. Yesterday was a fine
day. The weather was as good as if it
was made to order; and, consequently, a
first-rate crowd was in the Park. Every
thing passed off admirably, and, as far as
we could Icaro, everybody was pleased.
I0E MECHANICAL HALL
not so crowded with exhibitors as
wt year. Public taste seems to have
hcen inspired with the utility of orna
ment more than the “utility of utility.”
Chief among the attractions of yester-1
dav were the specimens of ice, manu
factured by the Atlanta Ice Manufactur
ing Company. It was bespangled with
inlays of fishes, melons, fruits, flowers,
etc., and was truly beautiful. Some
WINDOW COBNICES,
made apparently of zinc, were exhibited
by Joseph Qaerbacke, of Chattanooga.

Bay that Ladd contributes much to the
interest of the Pair. He has his hy

his head was still swimming, and they

Jonsen to collect $5 and costs out of
Kimball for building his house so high
and running up little shanties on the top

tory to all hands.

has thrilling associations for all who have
passed this trying (?) ordeal, and to the

OTHER MATTERS.
Mr. Joseph S. Lehman, of Mount Joy,
Pennsylvania, exhibits a splendid assort

and deservedly attract much attention,

JO MORGAN,

A WANDERING PUGILIST.
Mary Phillips was accused of drunk
enness and quarreling. She denied
the fiist charge. She loved a
morning dram, but she believed she
could take as much as most people with
out being affected. As to the second
charge she was not so certain. Her sis
ter, Bosa Thompson, had a photograph
(doubtless of Sir Knight Don Beginaldo
deCardozo) which she refused to give up,
and she assumed the responsibility of
correcting her, and proceeded to inflict
punishment by slapping her on the
mouth. This slight-of-hand trick was
enacted seyeral times, to the edification
of ;he public and discomfiture of the un
fortunate Bosa. About this time some
policemen came up, and greatly indignant
that such a novel and fancy exhibition
should be enacted without the proper
license, invited the young artistes to the
morning reception, where their talents
were duly appreciated by a more enlight
ened audience. A new feature of the
exhibition was a ghastly scar on the fore
head of Miss Bosa, which was accident
ally (?) made by the dextrous hand of the
accomplished Mary, in her slight of hand
maneuvres. License, $10. Hearty in
ducement for another entertainment.
THE MINSTREL BAND
was composed of Misses Jones,^Wright

of “Family Jars” with an audience of
some hundred or more who were mnch

cloth than the show. Evidence against

It is a compliment to the energy, pa

al charms of the ladies, that, notwith
standing the many places of amusement
in the city, their Fair Hall, in James’

with the fashion of the city. And it is
further a eulogy on their persuasive elo
quence, whether with words, actions or
more qniet, but equally effective, de
vices, or the gentlemen’s liberality, that
at every table and comer, purses , spill
their contents into snowy hands. We
dislike to be invidious, bat while en
raptured with their many persona
charms, we wonder if some con

to build the new church, has not
prompted this munificence. Some of

Miller had an interpreter along, and
when the Court asked him if he was
guilty, his friend told him to say, “ Nix

he and his friend had a long roll of
Dutch talk, which “got clean away”
with Lowry. This was evidence by
proxy. Any way, it so bewildered the
Court that it told J. M. to go along “mit
himself.” He was so elated at getting off
that he strode out into the raiu, sing
