CINCINNATI, o., July 3.-The centen-
NAL anniversary Of the settlement Of
Ohio and her sister states of the territory
northwest of the Ohio river will be in.
augurated here at midnight tonight by
the firing of a salute of 100 guns from
three different points on the hill tops and
on the landing. All the church bells in
the city will be set ringing and every
steam whistle within a radius of five
miles will add to the general jubilant
ushering in of centennial day and the ma
tional festival. Although there has been
q good deal of opposition to the com
mencement of the festival exercises at
midnight, the Impotence and enthusiasm
of the people apparently knows no
bounds, and it is safe to say that for the
next forty-cight hours pillows will afford
but scant rcpose to the heads Of the ex.
ultant populace of this city. The centcn-
NAL exposition will open at o o'clock to-
morrow morning and the city is nov
crowded with thousands of visitors from
ncighboring states who will Join in the
proceedings destined to mark this
historical event. It is on the program
that at about IL a. m. Mrs. Cleveland will
