CHEAP FARES TO THE CENTENNIAL
EXHIBITION.
VIII our Republic ever Look upon its Like
Again

No occurrence since the days of the Revolution
has wrought up the feelings of our patriotic,
country loving native and adopted citizens. as
til Great Exhibition in Philadelphia, which has
assembled representatives from every civilized
natl on on the face of the globe. Of course there
were some miSgivings as to the success of this
cyclopian affair, and Congress was loudly called
| for, to aid the proper celebration OF our One
Hundledth Birthday as Nation. The friendly
| feelings exhibited by the whole world, with
whomswe are at peace, early gave assurance to
the managing directors, of the ultimate success
| of the Centennial Exhibition. AS we look over
the $50 acres of that apart of the Paramount Park
devoted to the Centennial and the miles of
magnificent buildings in which are crowded the
productions of the world, and the daily assem-
blage ofan hundred thousand persons, can we
say that The great Fair, wtieh CONNER crates
our Nations birth, and which has awakened new
interest in that memorable event, the signing and
declaration of our independence, is failure !?
We say emphatically, No!

preciated by all. 1t must be remembered that
no other road runs their sleeping cars Ito Phila-
delphia direct, without change. The reduced
rates created by the railroad has made the
fares about one-half of the regular tariff Round
trip Centennial tickets, good for sixty days, with
privilege of stopping off at any point, may be
purchased over the Fit. Wayne 81 Pennsylvania
