St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1886-08-26
About the building.

The attendance yesterday was consider
ably larger than on Tuesday, as the heat
was less oppressive. The exhibits for the
worst past were found to be arranged. The
Mexican band rendered highly pleasing
program of ten numbers. the overture of
William Tell and La Castomera
being most raptureously applauded.
ii. S. Woodruff, the OrganiSt
OF st. Paul's NJ E. church of Cincinnati,
gave several recitals upon the Barckhof
cathedral organ that were also well re-
ceived. The shutting down of the ma
chinery during the music was tried and
proved a great improvement. The COM
mittee appointed at the directors meeting
decided upon the following time for the
stopping OF the machinery during tine con-
certs; From $50 to 3 and from 4:30 to
in the afternoon; from to $50, 9:45 to
1915 in the evening, and this rule will be
hereafter observed.
THE ART GALLERY
proves to be a drawing card, the attend
ance there being nearly as large as in the
Exposition proper. Supt. Smiths sickness
has somewhat delayed the progress of the
arrangement of the pictures and the placing
Of the lighting apparatus in the different
rooms.
The absence of catalogues of course Gre
lteS some little Inconvenience, for while
people can admire the beauties of the differ
ent works Of art there is always desire to
know just what each represents. This is
especially true Of landscapes and allegorical
and historical pictures. particularly
of the latter. The cast collec
ton has been numbered. and partial cat
alogue has been furnished, and G. II. Du
Bots promises that the entire catalogue of
1, will no iad ri
next week.
THE OPERATIVE MACHINERY
Oh the first and second floors is a magn ct
that attracts the instant attention of every
mechanic as he enters the building. This
exhibit is daily becoming more and more
interesting as new features are added The
milling exhibit is without doubt the most
complete that the world has ever seen, and
the various systems for reduction and sep
aration in the patent processes of the day
are interesting even to novices. An i'm
portant addition will be the model mill of
F. P. Allis d Co. of Milwaukee, which
is expected to arrive soon. The brick max
ing machines. when fully under way, will
prove interesting.
THE MERCANTILE EXHIBITS
have been springing new wonders on the
public hourly. as one after another they
ery of course attracts the ladies. and
next the musical instruments. When
they find the sewing machines
they are enraptured, and when they reach
Bradstreets elegant display of decora-
lions, Persian rugs and draperies they go
into ecstacies One tour is never sufficient
and the second and third floors are always
crowded with ladies. The clothiers are
just finishing their booths and by to-day
another splendid attraction will have been
added.
THE TEMPERANCE BOOTH
of the ladies of the w. G. It. u. on the
third floor, is cosy little retreat that has
been fitted UP as a reception room for the
entertainment of VISITORS and the distribu-
ton OF temperance literature. All ladies
are welcome. but especially those who are
members of unions from other cities. A
committee of ladies is present to extend a
hearty welcome. Another feature of the
booth is mammoth cooler filled with ice
water for the accommodation of the public.
