The Turn Bezirk.

AT $50 A. NJ. yesterday the various Iurh-
Vereins formed in line at Turner Hall, and
headed by the Hussar Band marched 10
Richmond Grove, where the various gym
nastic and athletic exercises commenced on
the preceding day were resumed at ll:3o
o'clock. The number of contestants was
in excess of that of any former year, and
the efficiency of those engaging was equal
to if not better than that of three years ago.
The climbing and gymnastic exercises were
very superior, and won from the vast assem-
blage MANY warm rounds OF applause.
The vaulting, jumping and feats OF strength
were all good and many fine records were
made The attendance at the grove during
the afternoon was quite large, ana the
dancing platform was well patronized.
Last night grand ball was held IN the
new Exposition building, which was taste
fully decorated with eyergreens and BAN
ners, and most magnificentiy lighted by
large number of electric lights. The large
engine in the machinery room operated
dynamo, which furnished the electricity,
and the lamps burned with strong steady
white light. In fact, the Pavilion was
never more briIliantly1Iighted. The music
was furnished by the Hussar and First Ar
tillery bands The former was stationed
in the south gallery, and the latter on the
music stand in the center of the hall. The
weather was delightful, there being a soft
breeze from the south. The attendance at
the Pavilion was about 1000.
