Crowds Hear Fine Music at the Ex-
positions General Notes.
The Germans took the Exposition by
storm yesterday, and the vast temple of
trade resOunded with the music so dear to
the Teuton ear. while its corridors re-eehoed
with the accent Of what Goethe p 0nounced
''the most musical of all languages" The
weather was more than ordinarily prOpitiOus
and the crowd began to come early, though
the rush was reserved for the afternoon and
evening. At $50 o'clock the Mexican band
was stationed at the suspension bridge, on
Central avenue, where it met the guests of
the day, the LiederkranZ of Milwaukee and
the Harmonic societies and escorted them
to the exposition. The band was stationed
on one balcony and the two societies on the
other and during the afternoon they alter
mated with file music. German COM
positions exclusively were rendered by both
and at intervals the great organ tones
sweled out with the national German
hymns and airs. The cheering was vocifer
Gus as familiar air came pealing forth,
and when the well-knOWn strains of die
Yacht am Rhein': burst out, the cheers
shook the building. In the evening the
music was repeated IN the presence Of the
largest assemblage of the season. The day
was universally pronounced an enjoyable
one and huge success.
MILLERS' DAY.
To-day will be devoted to the dusty
coated millers and their friends. Besides
the visiting members Of the National Mill
ers' ASSOCIATION, large outside delegation
is expected. The grand lodge of Knights of
Pythias will be in session and Will attend
in a body. With the uniform division, 500
strong, the Knights will make fine display
as they march under the lights of NicOllet
avenue on their way over. There will be
several distinctive features during the day.
NOTES.
The Berlin casts are being rapidly set up
and will add much to the statuary display.
Il want to see the draped figures" was the
first remark made by delegate to the state
convention as he entered the building. He
was visibly disappointed
Yesterday afternoon boxing gave way,
precipitating the large swinging pulley over
the betting of the central line of shafting. A
stoppage was necessary while the pulley was
re-hung.
The restaurant still continues to practice
extortion on innocent customers. ASK the
price of everything before you buy.
Visitors should get catalogue before in
speeding the statuary. The additional inter-
est will repay the small outlay
