With @ philan- thropic purpose to serve the poor and needy, a wealthy gentleman of this city who desires his name withheld subscribed $2OO for steamboat excursion from this city at such time as & proper committee could be selected to make the necessary arrangements. Last evening there was meeting of citizens in Hugh Dailey's office in Hoadley building to make the necessary arrangements for the ex- cursion. At this meeting Hugh Daley was elected president of the picnic gathering. The election of officers resulted in the choice of Hugh Daley president, c. A. Bollman secre- | tary, Hon.

The prediction of Col. King in The early
morning hours that ''things will boom to
day was gloriously fulfilled ON the exposi
ton grounds, and
THINGS DID BOOM
to an extent most gratifying to THAI
maturgus and his genial and hard-workine
corps of assistants whose Conscientious eff
forts to furnish complete exhibition Of
the agricultural and Industrial products Of
the great Northwest, are meeting with ev.
cry encouragement from the populace.
The multitudes of strangers who throngeG
the streets of the city Tuesday night and
filled the hotels and lodging house:
to their utmost capacity proved a, fail
omen of the success of the morrow.
Those who came early and stayed long
were many, and their ranks were constant
ly augmented by the throngs which loaded
every incoming train, street car and vehicle
which could be pressed into service and
headed for the grounds.
The buildings attracted vast throngs
especially in the forenoon, and the dis,
plays were greatly admired.
THE ABBA LIGHT COMPANY.
At the south end of Mechanical hall is
an exhibit of peculiar interest to farmers
and those living in towns or cities where
gas or electric lights have either not vet
been introduced, or are too expensive for
general and domestic use.. The danger
from the explosion of ordinary lamps is so
great that it is only astonishing that
more accidents do not occur, especially
when we consider how careless persons are
IN using and carrying them.
The lamp on exhibition is what is known
as The needle gas lamp, the construction of
winch Is SO perfect and ingeniously ar
ranged that explosions are absolutely i'm
possible, all dangerous gases being carried
on and no possibility of them being com
munlcated with the reservoir. In proof of
the excellency of this invention and its
absolute safety, We give the following
letter from the secretary Of
the Underwriters association of Cincin-
natl. remarking by the way. that this is
the nrst and only time that an insurance
company has ever endorsed lamp of an

In addition to its safety, the Needle
gives brighter and better light than
those ordinarily in use, fifty candle power
being guaranteed. The prices are so low
that any one can easily purchase them.

MATCH EQUESTRIAN TWENTY MILE RACE
between Miss Belle Cook, of California, and Ed
wardo Espinosa, the Mexican dare DEVIL" 81,
800 side, the association to add $4,000
As will be seen by the above programme
for todoys races, this is to be one of the
gala days of the fair, if, indeed, it does not
prove the most interesting of any.
In the 2:40 class the horses named are
all animals of mettle, whose speed
and travelling qualities have been
improved by long and careful training.
OF the horses entered for this race. all
with the exception of Borneo have already
made their appearance on this course.
During the present week Lady Florence.
Prince Arthur and Mollie B. having partici-
days race, in which Prince Arthur
won the first place, Mollie
B. and Lady Florence being
third and fourth respectively Brown
Wilkes was the winner in the 2:32 class on
the same day.
IN THE FREE FOR ALL
pacing race, the second ON to-day's pro-
gramme several horses will participate
whose names are known all over the coun-
try. Little Brown Jug and Sleepy Tom be-
ing particularly famous, very exciting
and interesting contest will undoubtedly
occur.
But it is the great
TWENTY MILE CONTEST
between Miss Belle Cook, of California.
and Edwardo Espinosa, the famous '.Mcxi-
can dare devil" which will be decidedly the
event of the day. Miss Cook is already
known to most of our readers as the cham
pion in similar contest last year, in
which Miss Jewett, of Minneapolis, rode
against her on these fair grounds.
Espinosa is stranger to the Minnesota
public. but the GLOBE has already pub
ished accounts of many of his wonderful
exploits in the southwest. In one of the
adventurous expeditions he, in COM
pany with three others, attacked fourteen
indians, thinking that there
were only three or four. when
too late and they had discovered their mis-
take they endeavored to escape, but not
before Espinosa had been left for dead.
with several bullet holes in his body. Es-
pinosa i'll his great contest to-day with
Miss Cook will change horses himself,
while she will be lifted from one to an
other by her attendants; undoubtedly the
RESULT of the race will depend largely on
which of the two contestants can change
the most rapidly, as they both will ride
very fine horses and are splendid riders
A very exciting contest is certain.
