The day for closing the Louisville
Exposition has been fixed, and the
season will not be extended. At the
meeting Tuesday night the Board of
Directors determined to close the
doors Saturday, November 10. That
leaves only three weeks after this,
The Courier>Jo Journal says: "These
should be the greatest weeks in point
of attendance Of the entire season.
The success Of the Exposition is so
unquesIioned, its influences for good
here at home, and not here alone but
throughout the South, is so marked
that what remains Of the season
should be made a jubilee by our
own citizens. The attractions are
of character unequaled before. The
display Of machinery is the most strik-
ing and comprehensive ever made.
The art gallery and the music, which
have been so attratiye, are to be at our
command only little while longer.
We should show our appreciation in
every way, and during these closing
days fill all the aisles, annexes and
galleries. Excursions are coming in
from all directions at rates which have
never been given before, and the at
tendance Of strangers is certain to
surpass the record, as is always the
case at the close of such exhibi
tions.D

To the bachelor, viewed from an
objective standpoint, there attaches
deep and lasting interest, depending
for its degree upon its eligibility for
matrimonial purposes. He enjoys
distinction peculiarly his own and al
together incompatible. Prabably no
element in the social organism has
evoked more discussion than the bach
elor. Let it be established in the pub
lie mind that he is a bachelor, pure
and simple, and he becomes at once an
object of ceaseless and enviable debate.
Married ladies admit him to their
confidence. Match makers bestow his
path with flowers. Mothers court him
Girls adore him. Club doors swing
wide to him. He is needed at germans.
He is asked to dinner; he is wanted at
wine suppers. He is absolutely neces-
sary as an escort at the opera; he is the
most independent factor in society; he
acknowledges no oompeer. His prov
ince is his own and inviolable. The
