CONSOLATION PURSE.
FAIR NOTES

The display of clothing made by Rothchild's
in Machinery hall is one of unusual good taste.
However, they had the right kind of stock to
do it with. Their merchants tailoring and
ready made clothing just like the house
which deals them out-the best in the city.
Persons passing through Agricultural Hall
could not fail to notice the large number of
blue ribbons attached to Moulton 4 Co.'s ap-
pies. There is talking, the Russian
apple is the future apple of Minnesota 1t
only remains for our fruit growers and farm
ers to show the same energy and enterprise in
cultivating this fruit as Messrs. Moulton & Co.
have shown in placing it within their reach.
The President and wife and Gov. Pillsbury
and wife rode to the grounds and back in
magnificent fve-glass landau, and the hand
some carriage divided attention with the beau
tlful horses which drewit and the distinguished
party that occupied it. It was pronounced by
all as by all odds the handsomest vehicle ever
brought to Minnesota, and many times were
the qustlons asked, who made it?"-'where
did it come from?'' The GLOBE undertakes to
satisfy this very laudible curiosity The Ian.
dau was manufactured at the celebrated Stude-
baker factory at South Bend, Indiana,
and was only one of the splendid displays at
the great Northwestern exposition. This car
riage purchased some time since by J. W.
johnson, ESQ. proprietor of the North Star
e.
main in Minneapolis, a souvenir Of the Presi-
dents visit.
ALI persons who visited the exposition in the
afternoon yesterday could not help but notice
the many blue ribbons that were awarded this
great carriage mandatory.
Cnrlstlan Dean are appointed Studhaker's
agents for Minneapolis and vicinity. and will
keep constantly on hand a large variety of
all classes OF their work. including some of the
finest quality. They now have some of the
fine carriages that were displayed at the great
exhibition.
CARRIAGES.
Our friend Fred Roeller, proprietor of the
Novelty Carriage works, whose skill and ar
tistic design i'll carriage manufacture received
a just compensation for his efforts to please
his Patrons by receiving the most com pliments
| upon his exhibit from the visitors at the expo
sition, of any of the numerous class in which
ne entered. When the judges placed the blue
ribbon as symbol OF the award upon his car
riages, sleighs, platform and side bar buggies
! and phaetons, they but echoed the universal
verdict of thousands who admired the beauti-
full and useful vehicles SO conspicuousy dis
played by the enterprising manufactures.
JOHNSON. SMITH e. HARRISON.
These boys, the two first mentioned of whom
seven years ago. in the village of Minneapolis.
started the job printing business with cider
press and keg of nails, have grown with our
municipal growth and strengthened with our
strength. until they now have the most extern
slve job printing office, book bindery and litho-
graphing establishment northwest of Chicago.
They were represented on the grounds by an
unostentatlous display of blank books and mis-
cellaneous binding, and specimens of printing
and lithographing-no prepared for exhibit
ton, but taken from specimens of every day
work. Did they
CARRY OFF THE PREMIUM?
OF course they did, my boy-all of them, and
away from such veteran establishments as the
Pioneer Press and every other establishment
represented on the ground.
Their miscellaneous binding was especially
superb, BENG equal to the fancy work done in
Europe for 3great libraries. Messrs johnson.
Smith Harrison may well be proud
of their work and the appreciation it met with
at the fair, for they are beginning to be recoe-
nized all over the West as the best and most
reliable firm in their lines, anywhere in the
West. Their display received the blue ribbon
on every article.
HARTMAN & co.
One OF the notable displays in mechanical l
hal, the most beautiful from an artistic stand
point, of the entire fair was that of E. A. Har-
mon u Co., consisting of
FINE GROCERIES AND cRocKERy.
The space occupied by the firm in the center
of Mechanical hall, was, from early Monday
morning until late Saturday night surrounded
by crowd of fair women and brave men,
admlring the arrangement no less than the
beautiful articles exhibited. And
THE FIRST PREMIUMS!
1t was perfectly astounding how many blue,
ribbons can be tackled on to one display when
the committees are all united There was
blue ribbons on magnificent lamps, blue
| ribbons on silver ware, on porcelain ornamental
trlnkets, on complete sets of china, on cut
glass, ornamental and useful articles, on tin
chamber suits, on Belleek china. and on

were blue ribboned though there was no
competitors-and there was not.
