for their enterprise in obtaining such work and

INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION.
HALE rAREs IN OCTOBER.


THEIR CONTINUANCE A SOURCE or Loss-ARGU-
MESTs IN THEIR Favor.
PHLADELPml, Sept 2i.-Considerablc difference
of opinion exists among the managers of the Cen
tennial Exhibition in regard to the continuance OF
the Saturday haf-rate admissions during the month
Of October The experience of the 10th demon
stratcd that financially the cheap days are not
success. for while many persons take advantage OF
the cheap rates to visit Paramount Park on Satur-
day, tho attendance is by no means doubled. In
deed, many who would go TO the grounds If the Gus
tomary price Of admission was charged remain
away on the cheap days in order to avoid the great
crowds wich they expect to meet there. IL
has been estimated that the loss To the
Exhibition treasury account OF half fares Tor the
Odd and 3Oth will be $25, 900. So strong has been
the inclination Of the managers to charge full admis-
sion fees on Saturdays In October that 1t has been
prematurey announced in the city papers that after
Sent. 80 80 cents will be the price of admission on
SATURDAYS as wen rs on other days. The arguments
in favor OF continuing the cheap days are worthy OF
consideration. II certainly opens tho great EXhib-
ton TO large class OF people, especially those resd
ing in Philadelphia and vicinity who could not
affor, TO attend on other days, The school children
OF this city have also taken advantage of their
weekly holiday and Of the 25cent admission rate to
spend day Mt the Exhibition grounds, and it has
been said that il is worth more to the country TO
have one boy or girl Of ~ years Of ago or upward
soc the Exhibition than five adults.
