Hi EXPOSITION.

Last Nighf-COncert by the Tennes-
seeansAMOnster Sunday-SchoOl Con-
cert TO-Night-rriaI of the Chemical
Fire Extinguisher.
There was a small attendance at the Ex-
position during the day, but at night the
turnout was good.
On account of the inclement weather,
the baby show was postponed until to-moF-
row afternoon. Already a sufficient num-
Der of entries have been made to insure its
success, and Notwithstanding the unfavor-
| able circumstances yesterday, a large num-
Der of children were brought to the build
ING at the time advertised for the exhibit
tiOn.
Among the visitors yesterday forenoon,
we noticed about thirty young lady stu
dents. from DIR. Halsells academy, al
| Bowling Green, Ky. They arrived on the
morning train, and spent the greater part
of the day in the Exposition building.
The concert of the "TennesseeanS' last
| night. was we'll received, and frequently
applauded. They gave evidence of skillful
training. and, in time, will prove no mean
| rivals of the famous Jubilee Singers They
will repeat their concert Saturday evening
| and night, by special request.
There will doubtless be an immense
crowd out tonight Il hear the Sunday
school children. At S o'clock P. NJ. thlr-
teen hundred children will march into the
building. and, under the leadership OF Mr..
John Campbell, will sing the following
pieces:
Anniversary Jubilee.
The Pilgrims Song.
Shall We Meet in Heaven?
Loved Ones Gone Before.
Jesus is Coming Again.
Crown Him.
o. We are Youthful Soldiers.
CroWding Awfully.
The stage las been erected in amphi-
theater style, and the arrangement OF the
| children will be a sight well worth four
times the price of admission. Two pianos
and six organs will be on the stage, gener-
| erously furnished by j. A. Mcclure * Bro,
the popular music dealers.
on account of the bad weather, n at
the earnest request of the Mayor and others,
the test of the Great American Chemical
Fire E~xtinguisher, was postponed until to-
NIGHT. as the building was soaked with rain,
and the test would not have been cOnsid-
cred a fair one. Ire building tonight will
be dry. and filed with boxes and barrels
| saturated with tar and coal oil, and nothing
will be left undone to make the trial a Sc
we're one. At the conclusion of this exhibit
ton. there will be a display of fireworks
in front of the Exposition building. Capt.
Stockell, with his usual foresight, has made
arrangements to have a steamer on hand TO
meet any emergency.
PUNCH AND JUDY TONIGHT.
Those who wish to be pleasantly enter
tanned tonight should not fail TO visit
Punch aud Judy. 1t is better than a ply
sicians prescription, and costs only ten
cents. Take yOur wife and children, or
vour sweetheart and her little brothers and
sisters with you, and they will pronounce
It the rarest treat they have enjoyed in
MANY a dav. The price of admission is
only ten cents. and as Punch has been very
liberal TO the churches and charitable lnsti-
tutions. he deserves a rOusing benefit to-
night. Let him have 1t.
MORE NEW HARNESS.
NJ. NJ. McKeOn is determined to carry
Off the palm for elegant harness, if we may
nudge from his efforts to place before the
public the very finest specimens of work
ever exhibited. Not satisfied with the
display of his magnificent $1,000 set OF
harness. he recently added an elegant set
worth $3.50, and will make a further addi-
ton this morning of single harness, held
at $500. This last contribution IS
one of tire most attractive pieces
of workmanship we ever noticed.
The mounting is of celluloid, and is some
thing entirely new in this part of the u
trv. Parties who have examined his dis
piay heretofore, especially the $1,000 har-
ness. should not fail to call and see this
last and very magnificent piece OF work.
MIR. McKeon's enterprise in adding to MS
DISPLAY at almost the close of the EXPOSE
tion is to be commended. He believes IN
keeping up appearance to the end, and MS
interest in the success of the Exposition
has lost none of its ardor. His
HEADQUARTERS at No. IS South College
street. is stocked with a large assortment
Of saddles, harness, brides, etc, equal IN
every respect to those OF exhibition, ana he
sells at prices to suit the times. His mot
TO is to olive and let live" and he carries 1t
out to the letter. He warrants all work
turned outs him to be just what he repre-
sents It. The celebrated Wilson bride IS
manufactured by Mr.. Mckeon. This
bride is perhaps one of the most useful
patents of the kind ever offered in this
market. With it the gait Of the horse
can be regulated, and If he is inclined
to run away, or be vicious, he
can be stopped instantly. They are cheaper
than the ordinary brides, and possess de-
cided advantages they do not. Call and
examine his goods, both at the Exposition
and at his salesrOOm.
