ing of the Board Of Aldermen Monday
night and referred to the Committee on
Ordinances provides that the Police JUS

turned over to the Auditor. This ques.
ton has been agitated in the Council
several times.

system-List OF Houses that will
Take Boardsrs-Races, &c.

General Charles J. Anderson has &C.
cepted the position of chief marshal oil
the street parade to be had at the open
ing OF the Exposition October Sd, and
may be counted on 10 make a successful
aifair OF it. Exactly what will be the pro-
grampe has not yet been determined
on, but no doubt the effort will be made
to obtain the participation Of all the
Richmond military and all the other sol
der companies near 10 Richmond the
city Fire Department; the civic societies
the City Council. &c, and trades orgsni-
cations of Richmond.
Buffalo Bill is anxious TO bring mp the
rear Of the parade with a troop OF In
dams and other animated belongings OF
his Wild West Show.
General Anderson is now thinking
over all these details. and will in good
time communicate with all the organiza-
tiOns interested.
it is conceded that an invitation from
the Exposition authorities to all who
Join General Anderson in the march TO
attend the Exposition in body will
serve AS q stimulus to the undertaking.
Later on in October, when the Expo
sition is in its very best working order,
an effort will probably be made to have
military day, when q special pro-
gramme may be arranged to draw to this
city ali the Virginia and North Carolina
military.
REFRESHMENTS.
Mr.. Robert Hill, Jr., who has the re-
freshment privilege, has not located all
his stands yet. Two of the main ones,
however, will be over the Music Hall IN
the main building-one for ice-cream,
the other for lunches. These apartments
run the length of the Music Hall,
and were they not enclosed would serve
as cOmmOdious galleries.
The old main building, which was
used during former fairs, will also be for
refreshments.
WATER.
The connection of the water-pipes OF
the city with the Exposition-Grounds
enables the use OF water all over the
building, and will be in sufficient abun-
dance for all purposes. The plumbing
work is being done under the supervision
of Mr. w. II. Campbell. who says it will
be entirely completed by next week.
PAsSTniRTREs.
The passimetres, seven in number, ar
rived yesterday morning and will be put
in place as soon as the building in which
they are to be located is ready for them.
These passimetres are made of iron.
The body is vertical cylinder about
three feet high. On top there are four
arms extending out thus:

RACES.

RACES.
From present prospects the entries for
both the running and trotting races will
be large. Most of the horses will come
from North Carolina and northern cities.
There is some talk among owners OF

steeplechase for horses in Virginia, West
Virginia, and North Carolina. 1t IS
hoped the idea will take shape. A very
rretty steeplechase course describing a
figure twice. could be arranged inside
the present track.
