remained TO be done in this as i'll all
other departments last evening.
| Some of the finest works of art we
have ever seen, and some Of the best
collections, are here to be found.

the South, taking view the entire
length Of the Hall, and the sight is
beautiful in the extreme. ending III

Aside from Exposition Hall, the In
| vcmtors' Department is the most at
tractive feature Of the grand display.
1t would be next to impossible Ia
| give a description or even u curSOry
| mention of its hundreds of models and
a thousand other useful and mcritO-
rious inventions. From end To end
it is filed with the genius and handi-
work of inventive men. ami one can
there see and form some conception
| of what the mind Of man is capable
of. Every kind OF machinery from
the thirty-hOrsc power engine down
TO the delicate and tender hair>pring
of a watch can be found. The inqnir-
i'm. mind could find food for Il decade
to study, aud even then there would
bc things lett which his philosophy
had not vet thought OF. There are
but few things that the human mind
is not capable of mastering, il Is said
but it would seem that one grand cf-
fort la. been made to cover every
thing in the way Of invention here.
The inventors department, in con-
n~cction with that of the Power Hall,
i. about two hundred feet long. and
our readers INA judge of the space il
would take to give \ detailed
of what the hall contains.
The first thing that reefs the Wis
ion If the visitor on entering the
power building Is two twchty-horsc
power engines, one on either side of
the hall. One of them is furnished by
Burnside, Crowthcr 4 Rogers and the
other bv the Detroit Bridge and Iron
Works. Both engines are kept in cun-
slant motion and are bright a> dol
lar. just from the mint They are
int tended to work the various kinds
Of machinery that is on exhibition in
this department. aud it is hardly nee
cssary 10 say that they prove II great
source of attraction 10 the curious.
The st. Joseph Steam Printing
Company have several Of their presses
OH hand and today they propose to
| print cards aud posters for the people
| who come here from abroad, to take
| home as evidence of what 81. Joseph
can do in the job printing line.
j. L. Mckenzie furnished the oil
| cups, which are IL recent invention,
| for the machinery department..
Different exhibitors were so busy in
fixing up their various departments
IN the power building YESTERDAY, that
we found il difficult to get Il list OF
| the various pieces of machinery and
different articles OIL exhibition. The
hall will present II more attractive
appearance today. Many articles
were brought in Yesterday, and to-day
everything will be in readiness to put
the engines in motion and all the ma
chincry.
The following are among the cxhi,

Geo. Fletchall has a two year old
