The International Exposition at At
lanta, Ga.

The management of the international
Cotton Exposition, which is to be held at
A. lanta, Ga, beginning October 8 and to
continue throughout the remainder OF the
year, closing December 81. have recently IS
sued a circular of which the following is the
substance: This exhibition was named the
International Cotton Exposition" because
nothing more was contemplated than fair
for illustrating every detail of the cotton in
dustry. Soon after the company organized
the managers decided to admit other text
lies, and later. yielding to an almost uni
versal demand, they concluded to open their
doors to all Industries. Hence the EXPOSE
ton is no longer confined to that one staple,
nor to the several textile interests, but 1t
comprises every industry in which civilized
men engage. The classification employed at
the Centennial will be closely followed in
the six departments Of the Exposition. The
railroad companies have adopted excursion
rates lower than ever before Ofiered-round-
trip tickets from Chicago or st. Louis only
fifteen dollars, from Cincinnati or Louis
vile, nine dollars, and equally low rates by
other lines. 1t is expected that no less than
5OO, 900 people from the South, 2OO,OOO from
the North, and very large number from
Canada, Great Britain and the European
Continent will visit this Exposition, and ex'
tensive arrangements are being entered into
to furnish sufficient additional accommoda.
lions to comfortably entertain so large q
multitude in the city of Atlanta. The entry
fee OF twenty dollars is the only charge
to exhibitors. Nearly every kind of bust
ness Is already represented among the appli'
cations registered. Full and specific an
swers will be given to all inquiries respect
ing the Exposition addressed to II. l. Kim

THE NEW MARY ANDERSON

Less than two years ago a beautiful
young lady witha wealth of golden hair,
bright blue eyes and clad in snowy white
ness, stood up among class to receive her
diploma as a graduate of a school in the
state of Kentucky. Unlike most young
ladies Of her age, her first thoughts upon
returning to the parental mansion was how
to employ her time. She was offered a
position as teacher of elocution in the pub
lie schools, but this did not suit her. Upon
reflection, she selected several plays, made
a study of them and concluded to enter the
atrical life Meeting Mrs. Waller in New
York, she gave several readings, which
were satisfactory to the great eocutionist.
Returning to her home she at once began
making preparations for the stage, and less
than two months ago she made most sue.
cessiul debut at her home in Louisville,
Ky. This young lady was Selena Fctter,
who appeared at Englishs Opera-house
last night in Sheridan Knowles play, "The
Wife"
She has fine voice, fine figure, eyes that
resemble those Of Mary Anderson, and with
proper training will overreach the reputa-
ton of the Lovely Mary" She reads her
lines well, and her stage presence Is good
for one so young in the profession. She
demonstrates something besides a short
acquaintance with stage manners brain
and cultivation. She gave an admirable per-
Torrance, the result of study, not alone of
mere routine, but of the character. In the
| first act she lntuses into her maiden love
becoming modesty, as well as the deepest
and tenderest passion. She does not believe
her lover false, and rather than accept
man she does not love she will drink the
death draught. The passion and defiance
of the actress in this strong scene was the
quiet and natural determination of a wo.
man driven to desperation. In the second
act, when she is charged with isAdelity,
she passes perfectly through the varied
shades of emotion from indignant scorn to
crushed and injured innocence. In the last
act, when the climax is reached and she
confronts her accusers in the presence of
her husband she reached the height of her
power. Evansville Post.
