EDS. JoURNAL:-Thinking a few Cen
tennial items would be of interest tC
your many readers, | improve a spare
moment in noting some.
We left Red Wing in company with
our County Treasurer ON Monday the
10th inst. We arrived at Chicago the
next morning, and while in the depot
waiting for the train, whom should we
meet but our fellow townsman, N. b.
Kimball, on his way to visit friends in
Ind, he having come by way of West
Wisconsin. AS we neared the depot
at Valparaiso, the point neighbor X.
was aiming for, we were surprised by
a strain of music from brass band.
Could not account tor it as we had not
sent word that we were coming, SO
concluded it must be in honor of
neighbor X. But after the cars had
come to a halt, all surmises were
brought to an end by reading on a
small dirty banner, in large red let
tiers,
''wELCONE TO voorhees,
If such welcome is to be given to
all democratic orators we think they
must feel greatly encouraged. There
were not enough to make corporal S
guard"
Subsequently in conversation with
an Indiannian, who had always until
this fall been democrat, we were told
that Indiana wosld surely 60 republi-
can at the coming election. This pre-
diction has been reiterated time and
again.-So much for politics.
We arrived at Philadelphia on
Wednesday afternoon. About seren
hundred were supposed to be on the
train. Thirty fre trains come in dali
ly. Have visited the Exposition three
days, and can only say that it is a
big thing. 1t would require lifetime
to examine carefully everything.
Every thing is done "decently and
in ORDER" the most perfect system be-
ing every where manifest. We have
not noticed single instance of intOX-
ication since our arrival. Would
that so much could be said of a little
town back there in Wisconsin,! The
attendance during the week has aver
aged 10000 daily. until yesterday,
which was ''25ct. day when the at
tendance was 100000.
One of the most pleasant features in
the concern, is the estate Headquar-
ters.' There one feels at home, and
it is the only place to find friend. l
would as soon think of looking for a
friend in Heaven, or even in the other
yet more denSely thronged granary of
harvested souls, than for one here. after
having been separated from him ten
minutes. a book is kept for the reg
iSteTing of every ones name and
boarding place which makes a very
useful directory. In fact ererythihg
has been done for the comfort and
convenience of visitors. Files of near
ly all the Wisconsin papers are kept
here, but we were disappointed i'll try
ing to find one from Pierce or st Croix.
\ paper from home would be most
welcome visitor. We close by asking
you to send copy of the JOURNAL to
Wisconsin Headquarters, Centennial
Grounds, Phil, Pa.
Yours, BAsswOoD.
Our friend is informed that the jour
NAL is sent regularly TO Wisconsin
Head Quarters, and has been ever

DESTROYS OF paying visit there, and viewing
for the FIRST and only time i'll their lives the
remarkable products of our country. gathered
from every state and Territory.
To those, especially, who desire economy,
we wish TO present reasonable table OF
prices, or the cost of a trip to the Centennial.

Supper, lodging and breakfast in Phis-
dsfphia $50

Lunch III Centennial grounds 80
$4l so
Each day at Exposition $50
In presenting this array Of figures, we have,
of course adopted the shortest and quickest
line to the centennial, in order to give the
CHEAPEST, and that route is by the GREAT
PeRT WAYNE AND PENNSYLVANIA LINE which
runs all it's trains direct to the main entrance
thus saving to the traveller the cost Of car
risge hire or the vexatIous annoyance of slow
going street cars, which travellers 10y all other
routes must use, in order to reach the Cent IN
NAL grounds, more than three miles distant
from any depot, except the cOmmodious one
erected by the PENNSYLVANIA LINE Tor the
enjoyment OF its patrons.
Every visitor to the centennial has testified
to the superioty of the Great Fort Wayne and
Pennsylvania Line, with its complete and ele-
giant Parlor, Sleeping and Hotel Coaches,
where one can luxuriOusIy recline and view
with delight the charming scenery ef lofty
mountains, beautiful valleys, and the rip
ping waters OF the bright aud sparkling
Juniata, together with the famous Horse
Shoe Bend, Allegrippus, Pack Saddle, the
crossing of the Susquehanna, and an endless
variety OF lovely sights not to be found Oh any
other but tins popular line.
One could spend hours i'll writing of its
beauties and comforts, but space forbids our
saying more this time by all means take the
Great Fort Wayne and Pennsylvania Line TO
the Centennial, and reach the very GATEWAY
OF THB EXPOSITION without change Of cars or
any transfer.
