On the west side of the main hall
near the floral grotto, there is an elegan
display made by Phil J. MaIlon & Co.
plumbers, gas and steam pipe filters, No
2O4 Main street, between Adams and
Washington. On exhibition stands 9
coil Of lead pipe eight hundred and foul
pounds, in the form Of a cone. This
pipe was made at Mallon & Co.'s extern
siys lead works, on Main street. 1t is
superior to any pipe manufactured in
the East or West. Strangers visiting
the Exposition should not fail tC
visit the lead works Of Mallon IL Co
The beautiful machinery and process by
which the lead pipe is manufactured are
well worthy Of visit. 1t is curiC sity
not to be ignored. At the Expos ion
the firm has .bronze statues, bea ing
stained glass globes for gas purposfs, a
beautiful bronze fountain in full play
and pert antique chandeliers of charm
ing design. The cert antique portable
slide is chandelier of most attractive
pattern, and it was generally admired
last evening. The numberless gas jets
rising from chandeliers made the dis.
play brilliant in the extreme. In the
background an assortment of silver
plated and brass gas-ftting and plumb.
ing material is elegantly arranged.
Mallon 4 Co. have also on exhibition
glass globes of every variety, meters,
gas tubing, etc. A hydraulic ram, with
glass air chamber, and Blake's steam
" donkey pump" both in operation, was
another attractive feature. Clark s
Steam Register and Gauge and Gardi-
ners Fire Extinguisher, for which Nal
Ion & Co. are the agents, attracted no
little attention from the public. Pos
sessing energy, industry, enterprise and
experience in gas-ftting, plumb
ing and the manufacture Of lead pipe,
no wonder the above firm is doing fac
business.
DISPLAY OF JEwELEY.
One Of the most attractive show cases
at the Exposition contains the display
of jewelry made by Mr.. W. c. Byrd, the
we'll known jeweler at No. 275 Main
street. Last evening gentlemen had to
take back seats; the ladies surrounded
the show case and admired the elegant
gold sets, the rich corals from the ocean
caves, antique rings of rare workman
ship, the diamonds that sparkled be-
meath the gaslights, and the beautiful
ware fit for the household of an Emperor.
Notice the full coral set-brooch, ear
rings, necklace and bracelets, worth
eighteen hundred dollars; the solitaire
ring valued at Eve thousand dollars; the
brooch aud ear ring drops
worth FIVE thousand dollars; the sterling
silver ware of elegant design. The dis
play made by Mr.. Byrd is really most
attractive, but it represents only in the
smallest degree the beautiful stock of
jewelry and silver ware at his Main
street establishment, whittier all citizens
and strangers should go when in search
of fashionable and sterling goods. All
visitors to the Exposition this evening
ought to visit Mr.. Byrds location and
gaze upon the glittering display.

Located on the east gallery at the Elk
position building, a case of beautiful
goodsis the attraction. This display is
made by Mrs. f. Kremer, dealer in MILL

giant evening dress, with real lace
Aounces, worth twelve hundred dollars,
the entire dress being valued at fifteen

who surrounded it in groups last even
ing. The exquisite bonnets of every
hue and style fairly captivated female
dom, and even drew from the masculine
portion Of humanity many expressions
of satisfaction. The bridal fans, of ex-
quisite workmanship, are just the
articles for the approaching nuptial
season, as are also the elegant flower bas-
kets. Mrs. Kremer has large assort-
