NOTES OF THE SHOW.
The entertainment committee met at
the NicOllet house last evening and
completed arrangements for the enter
tainment OF firemen next Friday. The
visiting tiremen will leave fire depart
ment headquarters under escort of the
old volunteer firemen of the CITY at II
O'Clock, and parade through the princi-
pal business streets, across the river to
East side rink where they will be
served with dinner. At 2 o'clock hose
and other contests will take place on
University avenue near the Exposition
building. After the close of the outside
contests the Pompier corps of our citv
will contest for prizes inside of the EX-
position building, when other interest
ing exercises-including presentation
of prizes-will take place.
In 1869 Cappa joined the Thomas Or
chestra as first trombone and remained
with it seven years; also played the
for three years. AS conductor of the
concerts in Central park, at Brighton
Beach. Coney Island and at the
Louisville exposition, Cappa has al
ways given satisfaction to both the
promoters and public, fact which was
signally illustrated in the latter case,
since he was publicly compllmented by
the board Of managers, decorated by
the festival chorus and elected con-
ductor for the following year by large
majority of the popular vote taken on
the last days of the Exposition.
Friday, ''Firemen's day." there will
be grand banquet at 1880 p. M to all
visiting tiremen, given by~the directors
of the Exposition, in the East side
skating rink. Large numbers of the
"laddies'' are coming in and the exer-
cises on that day will undoubtedly be of
most consuming" interest. Delegates
from La Crosse, st. Cloud, Alexandria.
Sauk Center, Fargo and host of other
places have written on announcing their
intention of being present and compet-
ing for the valuable prizes to be award
ed on that day.
The department of woman's work re-
celves the most unqualified approval
from the hundreds of lady visitors, and
many are the expressions of enthuSiaS-
tic admiration for Mrs. Holbrook, Mrs.
Lewis and Mrs. Ray, to whose efforts
are due almost, if not entirely, the sue
cessful character of the exhibit
"Ihe Mill in the Black Forest' forms
part of the musical programme tonight.
Running through it are beautiful repre-
sentatlOns of the sounds of a mill, the
birds in the woods, etc. The maestro
has several sensational pieces in his
repertoire.
The management was well satisfied
with the attendance yesterday, the
night being largely III excess of the af-
ternoon. The directors expressed them
