VISITORS TO THE CENTENNIAL.
Their name is legion. l have been graft
fed with several pleasant interviews with

tory, Ex-GOv. &. Brown, of Tennessee, Ex-
Gov. Stearns, of New Hampshire, Ex-Gov.
Joel Parker, of New jersey, and other gen
tlemen from different sections of the cOun-
try. From a grouping of ideas from the list
of gentlemen have met of all shades of pol
itics | am led to a confirmation of an opinion
means often expressed; the centennial
peace.

! On taking a car in Philadelphia for the CEN
tCnnial grounds, be sure to ask, " II this car
goes through" and thus save yourself much
annoyance. GilmOre's famous band gives
concerts daily, morning and afternoon, in the
LSain building free to visitors; the music is
worth the entrance fee. If you come to the
exhibition bring lunch to the grounds, or
else eat late and hearty breakfast, then
postpOne yOur dinner Until your return to
the city, by which you avoid the extra
! charges incidental to patrOnizing a restaura-
| teUr on the grounds. These gentlemen have
| paid large sums for their privileges, and nee
! essarily must charge more than the ordinary
| prices. Lovers of billiards will take notice
/ that grand billiard tournament begins to-

Maurice DAILY, George Slosson, Melvin Fos

GARNER, Joseph DyOn, Cyrille DyOn, and
Louis Shaw, champions of the world. The
| cash prizes amount to $5000.00. The judges
of award have been partially appointed; the
! published list is incorrect. The foreign
judges receive $1,O0O0.GO, those from the
| United States, 100000. Workmen are not al
| lowed to leave the centennial grounds for
dinner; if so, it is at the risk of losing fifty
cents, which they Rust pay to get back; this
| seems a restaurant corner.
! One of the most elegant residences in the
| city is that of Geo. w. Childs, of the Ledger,
/ Twenty-seeend and Walnut. So much for
successful journalism. What a pity that G..
