narao of M. F. Eyorly among tho list
of candidates for Kcgister and llccor-

faithful and consistent democrat, and
hit long oxporienco in a law office has
mado him familiar with tho duties of
tho office he asks for. Besides this ho
can talk German which is a groat ad
vantage in a public officor. Ho has
boon a candidate boforo and when de
feated he heartily supported tho tick

and it would bo no mora than fair for
tho democrats of Columbia county to
tnako him thoir candidate Ho is well
qualified for the office, and would

THE HEW KEYENUE BILL f AILS.
Tho Itovenuo bill passed by tho
legislature has tailed to become a law,
becauso the governor discovered as ho
was about to sign bis namo to it, that
the siguaturo of Presidont pro tern, of
tho Senate, George Handy Smith, was
missing. Tho constitution provides
that all bills must bo signed by tho
presiding omcers ot botn brandies bo
foro thoy arc sent to tho governor, and
if this bo not done, within a certain
time tho bill docs not become a law.
Tho responsibility of this failure has
not been ascertained, but it is allegod
mat, it was tno tauit ot tho message
clerk of tho Houso in not returning the
bill to tho Senate for Presidont Smith's
signature.
Under the Rovenuo act of 1885, tho
corporations wero ozempt from con
siderable tax by a ruling of tho Supreme
Court which refused to construe "per
sons" to mean corporations,'' but tho
now aot cured this defect and the larger
tax would have been collected in tho
next couple of years. Tho now aot
turned into county treasuries one-half
of the tax on personal property, and
it was estimated that this would divido
up 81,000,000 oach year among tho
counties.
Should an oxtra session bo called it
would cost the stato nearly 150,000
at tho least figure. The bill could be
passed in six days, but tho compensa
tion for extra sessions is 8500 and un
der tho law members and senators
would each bo entitled to that amount.
Whether tho passage of the revenue
bill would be worth so much to tho
state is a question for tho governor to
consider in calling an extra session.

(Prom our Ilegular Correspondent. J
"WAsmNaioN. D. O. .May 30th, 1887.
The past week has been a very lively
and interesting one in Washington.
Tho National Drill has been tho great
event of course, and the programme
was so arranged that each day of tho
week had some important event of its
own, so that there was variety and in
terest all tho time. Today(Decoratkn
Day) is a legal holiday. The Depart
ments are closed, and the Government
employes aro free.
Unusually elaborate memorial ser
vices havo been arranged to take place
at Arlington, Soldiers' Home cemetery,
tho Congressional Cemetery and at
General Logan's tomb.. The soldiers
who have participated in the National
Drill will join tho Grand Army of tho
ltepublio and tho Army of the Potomao
in processions to these places, and
there will be musio and oratory and
prayers and poetry and flowers.
The contests of tho Drill are over,
but the Encampment docs not break
up until this ovening. Tho military
companies which went through the
ordeal of the. competitive drills, after
their duties were ended, gave them
selves up to fun, sightseeing and the
enjoyment of camp life. Tho soldiers
from Maino and New Hampshire think
it is protty hot weather in Washington
and on some of the parades a few of
them were overcome by the heat each
day. But the lads from Texas and
Louisiana think it is very sold for May
and shiver and put on their overcoats.
Altogether the health of the camp has
been good, considering thero are so
many soldiers hero from various cli
mates who havo been subjected to
changes of different kinds and to un
usual exertion and fatigue. Still the
hospital has proved an indespensability
of the camp and there has been con
stant demand for the services of tho
Red Cross Society, which lias charge
of it.
When tho rain and wind amounting
almost to a cyclone struck tho city of
tents on thieo successive afternoons,
making havoo with camp paraphernalia
of every kind and buffeting and dronch
ing tho soldier, the latter felt that
tliey wero haviuc a tasto of the reali
ties of military life on a war basis they
had hardly anticipated. Tho rain
norms wero quite disastrous, too, to
the hnances oi tlio Drill. Besides un
roofing the grand stand and causing
other damage9 which represented actual
ouuny, tney caused a postponement of
tuo pyrorama performance on two
evenings, depriving tho Drill Commit
teo of receipts from that source, and
thoy also cut out a portion of each day'i
program, as for instance tho dress
parade, at fivo o'clock P. M. which
would havo attracted manv sneotators.
General Greeley visited headquarters
shortly after the first storm and in re
sponse to sottio jocular reproaches
nbout tho weather promised that it
Bhonld bo good for tho rest of tho week.
The General of the Virginia Brigade
and the members of his staff expressed
themselves as much pleased with tho
results of tlio encampment so far as
their men wero concerned. Thoy said
it had been a camp of instruction to
them, many of whom needed such ex
perience. 'J ho strictest military disci
lino has been maintained and the
troops have been required to attend to
every camp duty with as much fideli
ty as tnougti tuey wero actually in sor
vioo in the field. Ono of tho officers
also said that tho encampment had
been of great benefit to mauy ot the
officers. Thoy were good drill officers
in their own armies but knew little of
the duties required of them in the field.
Some- of tbo captains havo had their
men up in lino at fivo o'clock in tho
morning, and no point has been neg
lected to givo them all tho bonofit ol
instruction tlio camp Mtonls.
Tho chief interest of tho drill lies in
that which nobody has yet found out,
namely : now tlio various companies
stand in tho competitive drill, nnd
which will got tho 85,000 prizo. Tho
announcement of tho awards will bo
mado by tho imltrcs at three oolook

Tho famous Lomax Hiflis of Mobile,

OPENING OF THE AMERICAN EXHIBITION.
THE QUEEN'S VISIT TO THE "WILD WEST."
London, May, 14th, 1887
Tho ovent of tho week has been the
opening of tho much-talked of Ameri
can Exhibition, which occurred on
Monday last. InvitPtions had been
sent to all the nobility, including tho
members of several clubs, amongst
them tho "Savage," tho Press and Gar
rick, the members of tho Houso of
Lords and tho Houso of Commons, tho
members of the Couucil of Weloimo
and all tho prominent Americans in
London to tho number of nearly 15,
000. No admission was given under a
guinea, and notwithstanding this tho
turnstiles registered tho admission of
nearly 30,000 people.
The timo of beginning tho exorcises
was set for S.30, and for nearly two
hours before that time all the omnibus
es and underground railway trains
wero packed with fashionable well
dressed and good natured pcoplo strug
gling for places tho cab ranks in tho
West End woro entirely deserted tho
private carriages completely blocked
every street leading to tho Lillie Road
and for some distance each sido tho
main entrance. At 2 o'clock two hun
dred members of tho press sat down to
luncheon in the room of the Art Gal
lery. Mr. John Gilmer Speed, an old
Journalist and Secretary of tho exhi
bition, presided nnd amongst the Com
pany was George Augustus Sala,
Lewis J. Jennings, the correspondents
of tho American newspapers, and a
representative of every important paper
in Groat Britain. The lunoh was quite1
informal, with tho exception of the1
laot tnat tho Uhairman spoko a few
words of welcomo, and Mr. Townsend
Peroy, on behalf of tho Executive
Council and himself personally, in a
brief and pointed speech expressed his
thanus to the gentlemen present for
kindness, courtesy and hospitality with
whioh the American Exhibition had
been treated by the English press. At
3.30 o'clook promptly, the members of
the Executive Council and of tho Ex
ecutive Staff assembled on tho plat
form erected outside of tho main en
trance to tho Art Gallery, fronting the
L ,-T- .t ITT I 1 TTT , 1
uriugu trailing to tne vy nu vv est and
the open spaces in tho vicinity, which
afforded sitting and standiug room to a
mass of people. The sight, as I emerg
ed on tho platform, was a most extra
ordinary one. It was a fine day and
tho bright colors of the ladies' toilets
made the onormous gallery look liko a
boundless parterro of flowers. It was
literally a sea of heads, and tbo sub
dued hum of conversation, which never
was still during any part of the cere
mo nes, was like the distant roar of the
sea. To the left of tho platform was
stationed Dan Godfrey nnd the band
of the Grenadier Guards, who opened
tho ceremonies by playing "Yankee
Doodle j" then tho Very Rev. Canon
Farrar, Arohdcacon of Westminister,
who was selected not only on account
of bis eminence in bis profession, but
on account of his partiality for Ameri
ca and Americans, proceeded to ask a
blessing upon tho enterprise about to
be inaugurated. Lord Ronald Gower,
brother to tho Duko of Sutherland,
then delivered a brief address of wel
come on behalf of the Council of En
glishmen formed to givo practical ex
pression to thoir hospitablo desires to
wards tho American guests. This was
replied to by Colonel Henry Russell,
President of tho Exhibition, and ho
was followed by Mr. John Robinson
Whitley, Director-General, in an ad
dress in which ho detailed tho history
of the enterprise. In tho intervals
during theso speeches tho band played
"Yankee Doodle" aud "Dixoy."
Madame Nordica electrified the audi
ence by her rendering of the "Star
Spangled Banner" and "Rulo Britan
nia i" jn faot, it was remarkable, tho
easo with which, when sho took hor top
notes, she filled tho enormous structure
known as tho main building.
Colonel Russell thon in a few words
declared tho Exhibition open. It had
been arranged that ho should start the
machinery whioh had been attached to
tho shafting at tho lower part of the
building, the hugo engine brought
from Amorica being in perfect order ;
but at the last moment the boilers, tho
contract for whioh had been iven to
an English firm, broke down, and it
was only by word, and not by deed,
that tho opening was accomplished.
As soon as tho exercises were over tho
crowd surged across the bridge leading
to tno grand stana oi tne wild West
this enormous structure has a seating
oapacity of over 20,000 porsons and
standing for half ns many more, and
tho wholo placo was densely packed.
To attempt to tell you who was there
would be an impossibility, almost as
raucn so as to tell you who was not
there. All tho beauty of brains, title,
money and position that London could
furnish were distributed over tho vast
amphitheatre.
I am quite suro that no one that waB
present will over forget tho roar of ap
plauso whioh broke from a surprised
multitude when, from behind the am-
busaade of rooks, Buffalo Bill, followed
by tho Indians and Cowboys, swept
like a whirlwind around the track, It
was hard to snv whluh had the bust of
it, the yelling Indians, the wboonine
Cowboys, or tho applauding multitude
of spectators. Tbo ierformanco is too
well known in Amorica for mo to dilato
upon it. It need only bo said that the
enthusiasm steadily increased from
start to finish. In tho evening tho illu
minated gardens, which aro very ex
tensive and charming, woro thronged
with pcoplo till tho closing at 10.30.
After having nil this multitudo of
patrons on Monday it would not havo
bcon ft matter of surprlso if tho busi
ness on tho following day had not been
good, but although tho weather was
" !.!.. 1 f rrr l .!.
uuprumuuiiB, uvur iu,vuu jicupiu wit
nessed tho entertainment.
On Wednesday no pcrformanco was
given in tho afternoon t Buffalo Bill
having already received Gladstopo, tho
Princoof Wales and thePrincess, ilonly
romaincd for him to havo tho patronngo
of tho Queen to havo accomplished
more than any other celebrity has yet
dono In tho world, and happily on
Tuesday tho Queen sent word com
manding a privato pcrformanco for her
benefit on Wednesday afternoon.
The arrangements wero made by tho
Marquis of Lome, and evoryono ex
cept tho members of tho Council nnd
Staff was rigidly excluded from tho
Amphitheatre
Every precaution was taken to pro
tect Her Majesty from any possiblo
draught. Tho box was extended to
tho edgo of tho arena, and tho open
space in front filled with a magnificent
collection ot orchids.
Jn order to avoid a crowd it had been
given out that tho Qiicun would enter
through the main entrance, in the Lillie
Road, but as a matter of fact, shortly
nfter 5 o'clock sho drove in nt Earl's
Court entrance, in tho Warwick Road,
which leads directly into tho Wild
West Arena. The Sioux Indians had
been drawn up on both sides ns a guard
of honor, and as I stood directly in
front of theni I was enabled to notico
tho look, first of surprise, nnd then of
pleased amusement, which overspread
Her Majesty's face as bIio caught sight
of this novel guard of honor. Sho came
in a double Baroucho drawn by four
magnificent bay horses, riddon by pos
tillions and with four outriders ; be
hind wero two Scotch gillies curlv head
od and fall bearded ; with black and
whito tartans, bare, stalwart and mus
oular knees ; they wero remarkable
looking servants indeed. Two other
carriages followed, bringing tho rest of
tho royal party, who wero driven slow
ly through the stables, affording the
li'iecn an opportunity to look in
through tho open door at tho 200
Mustang horses ; then tho cortege swept
around tbo arena and draw up in front
of tho royal box. Hero tho party woro
received by tho Marquis of Lome, who
presented Col. Henry C. Russell, of
Boston, president of tho Exhibition,
Mr. John Robinson Whitley, director-
general, and Mr. Vincent A. Applin,
tho secretary. Tho reception commltlco
consisted of Lotd Ronald Gower, Mr.
Burnet Landreth, John Priestman, Col.
Griffin, William Leo Thornton, Sir.
John Maxwell Horron, John Gilmer
Speed, Frederick C. Penfield, Town
send Percy, R. M. Smith, Alfred Pick-
ard, and other members of tho Execu
tive Council and staff. In the adjoin
ing boxes of the grand stand, wero
Mrs. Russell and tho Misses Russell,
Mrs. Salisbury, Mrs. J. R. Whitley aud
Mrs. Whitley, senior, Mrs. Priestman,
Miss Applin and a few other ladies.
The Queen took her seat in the cen
tre of tho royalboxin the arm chair. The
Princess Beatrice sat upon her right,
and on her left was Princo Henry of
Battenburg, who remained standing
during the performance. To the right
ot tne I'rincess iieatrice was tbo Mar
quis of Lome, and behind tho Queen
was the Dowager Duchess of Athol.
Sir Henry nnd Lady Por.soby, Colonel
Sir Henry Ewart and General Gardiner
Equerries in waiting, and the Honor
able Miss Cadogan, Maid of Honor
were in tho adjoining box. About
two thirds of tbo usual programmo was
then given for Her Majesty's benefit,
whioh from the expression on her face
afforded her great pleasure.
At tho oloso of tho exorcises she
spoke a few words of praiso to Miss
Lilian Smith and Annie' Oakley tho
girl shooters, and then Colonel Cody
was presented, and Her Majesty ox
pressed ber great satisfaction with the
performance, and in response to his
question as to whether the entertain
ment was too long, Her Majesty re
gretted her timo was limited, but sbii
hoped to be able to arrango to come
and see it again. Red Shirt tho ohief
of the Sioux, on being presented to
Her Majesty, replied to Her Majesty's
greeting by saying that ho was very
glad to see her, and that ho had come
a long way for that purpose. Mr. Nato
Salsbury tho Director of tho Wild
West then had tho honour of being
presented, and as he remarked to mo
afterwards in a burst of confidence,
said "when I took hold of Cody, I said
I would land him at tho foot of tho
throne, and by Jove, I havo dono sol"
Tho queen and suite then drovo to Pad
dingtou station and departed for
Windsor by special train. Her majesty
has commanded her sccretary(Sir Hen
ry Ponsonby) to mako full report of
the proceedings.
This is the seoond entertainment tho
Queen has attended in the twenty-two
years that havo elapsed sinco tbo death
of the Princo Consort and no greater
honour could possibly havo been con
ferred upon the American Exhibition
or tho VVild West.
On Thursday the attendanco was
larger than on the opening day, and
this, with the magnificent newspaper
notices and the general tone of pnblio
comment, enables mo to predict for the
American Exhibition tho greatest
financial success ever knowu in the
world.

j&Iutnlfiffl Snrduiiiit,
Hot weather is fast approach
ing. Sharp competition among
the manufacturers havo brought
down the prices. You would bo
astonished to sec what a nice
refrigerator we can sell you for
a very little money. It will' pay
for itself in one season's use.
Our leading freezer is the
"ltnpid" mid has only to bo seen
in comparison with others to in
sure its sale. Every one guar
anteed, and the price almost a3
low as some of the other makes
we keep.
WATER
COOLERS
"Water Coolers, with stands or
without for family, hotel or fact
ory use. handsome goods ; sizes
and prices to suit every body.
It is almost an impossibility to
keep a yard in nice order with
out a mower. One of the great
objections heretofore has neen
the price, but like everything
else, they have declined so as to
bring them within the reach of
nil. Our "New Model" we
claim to be the best mower made;
runs the lightest and price as
low as the lowest.
