EXPOSITION NoTATIONs.
Some of the SoiOists of Cappa's
Great Military Band.

During the past two years the band
concerts have proven the leading at
traction at the Exposition. The dusky
Mexican horn blowers the first year,
and the dashing Liberati the second,
proved the drawing cards with the pub
Hc-a fact the management has abund-
antly appreciated, and the engage
ment of Cappa's Seventh Regiment
Band of New York is the result of the
knowledge that the lovers of music must
be .gratlfied with the best there is going
to insure the success of the Exposition.
Besides being the foremost musical Or
galllZatiOn of its kind in the country,
the band includes number of dis
ungulShed soloiSts. Walter B. Rogers
the cornet virtuosO, although a young
man, is said to possess wonderful abil-
lty, and has been with the band for
several years, playing with the greatest
success at COney island, Central park,
Brighton Beach and the principal cities
OF the country. A. Barbera, the princi-
pal clarionetist, and Andrew Goerecke.
the trombone SOlOiSt, are also said to be
musicians of the first class in their es-
pecial forteS.
ABOUT TIE BUILDING.
The Knights of Pythias have asked to
nave September 16 set apart as their

The Exposition chorus, under the direc-
tlon of Prof. r. Stempf. will hold a re-
hearsal at Dyer's music hall WedneS-

III different parts of the building.
The management report that 5000
Minneapolis Sunday school children
will be present in the Exposition build
ing on floral day, Aug. 2S.
The firemen'S dinner to be given in
the Exposition building promises to be
a grand success. The firemen's COM
mittee on providing the dinner report
that contributions of food have been
very liberal.
Work has been commenced on the de-
signs for decorating the pool at the Ex-
position. Besides the floral decorations
anumber of novel electrical devices for
throwing light on the scene will be pro-
vided.
}. NJ. Mitchell, chairman of the COM

THE LABOR FESTIVAL.
Quite Success, in Spite of Threat
ening Weather.

Yesterday, the day of the labor picnic
at Lake Harriet, dawned dark, cold and
threatening, and put a decided chill
upon the hopes of the managers. But
in spite of all this, when the coopers'
band, followed by several hundred
workingmen, paraded the streets at 10 i'm
the morning the crowds became little en-
thusiastic, and when the band left on the
motor for the lake it was followed bv
considerable number. The sun came

fore 2 O'Clock, and then the motor

instead of outdoors, as the stand for the
speakers was surrounded with mud.
Gov. A. r. McGill was the first speaker.
He made pleasing address and was
warmly applauded. He was followed
by T. Fulton Gault and Prof.
w. w. Folwell. Both gentle
men made addresses full of good
common sense. Prof. Folwell spoke on
Good and Bad Socialism" The games
were advertised to begin at 10 a. m, but
as there was scarcely any one there at
that hour to participate, they were post
poned until after the speeches. A great
deal of interest was taken in the games
and good records were made. The ball
game between the East Side Fireman's
club and the nine from Altman'S store
attracted considerable attention. In
the fifth inning the score stood to in
favor of the firemen. At this point the
clothing men made ''grand kick" on
the umpire and refused to go on with
the game unless he was ''fired" and
another man put in his place. This
was not done, and the game stopped

DOWN ON BOB MILLER.
A Wilson Democrat Who Is Dis
GuSted With Him,

Two enraged Democrats-both Will
son men-entertained crowd at the
Nicollet house last night denouncing
Bob Miller. Il won't vote the ticket, :"
said one, ''if Bob Miller is con-
tinued in his present position,
using the committee to insult honest
men and work out his personal
ends" He explained his meaning by
the following narrative: On Friday
afternoon he went over to st. Paul and
dropped into the committee room. A
number of Saltwater Democrats had
come over, including Castle, German,
O'Brien and others, and an animated
discussion was going on. Suddenly Bob
Miller'S voice was raised in fierce de-
nunciation of Ames, applying vile
epithets to him. Don't say that"
said Senator Castle, lit isn't
right, and you know it." ''Of comse it
isn't right said another, "and Ames
might be nominated yet" At this Mil
ler blaZed out again and said that there
was no chance of it. ''At any rate"
said Senator Castle, "Dr. Ames is a
Democrat, and if he is not nominated
he will pull off his coat and work for
the man who is. His friends will do
the same, and we want to make no enc
mics this year." 1--WE don't want Dr..
Ames and his friends to work." said
Miller, but he was then squelched.
81 have always been a Democrat, and
| voted the ticket before Bob Miller was
born," said the Nicollet house narrator.
''but it does grovel me to know that
such man is on the committee. It's a
disgrace and an outrage"

the games. decided the contest draw,
and the firemen have appealed to the
board of managers. The foot race be-
tween John McGaughey and Mike Mo-
gan was won by McGaughey by half a
length, despite the fact that MOgan
tried to jockey him. Vanderberg won
the boat race, after an exciting contest.
Young came in first in the sack race
and Mclean won the 100-yard foot race,
while Cameron came in first in the rs
yard foot race.
Every motor train which went to the
lake after6 o'clock, and they went every
feW minutes, was packed up to g O'Clock.
Every one wanted to see the fireworks
and participate in the dancing, even if
the air was decidedly chilly and over
coats were pleasant things to wear. AS
train after tram came in the pavilion
estimated that at 10 o'clock there were
no less than 5000 people in and
around the pavilion. During the
early part of the evening many
went boating, but returned before 9,
SO as to get good place from which to
view the fireworks. But there was a
disappointment in store for all, for the
man who had been engaged to give the
pyrotechnical exhibition did not put in
an appearance until too late to do any
good. So there were no fireworks.
Everyone made the best. of the matter.
however, and turned their attention to
dancing. 1t was late when the last
waltz was played, and then the rush
for the trains began. The narrow
gateways leading from the pa
vilion were insufficient to allow the
dense crowd to pass, and for time it
seemed as though something was ''go-
ing to drop" but there were no acci-
dents, further than torn coats and
dresses and crushed hats. All in all,
the picnic was success. and the X. of
L. Building association will have large
amount to push along the work Oh the

y 1t would be great thing if arrange
ments could be made to have Henry
George meet James G. Blaine on the
stump and discuss the tariff. 1t is pos
Slble that as Blaine is to come to Mill

rely solely on the efficiency of the So

spring of 1856.
1t is being quietly given out among
the faithful that great care must be
taken in electing delegates to the Re-
publican county convention in order to
have all the nominees Oh the legislative
ticket in favor of John S. Pillsbury for
United States senator. The matter of
making up the legislative slate is in the
hands of Col. Ed Davenport, who is eX-
pected to secure written pledge from
every person who is candidate for the
legislature, in which he pledges him
self, if elected, to vote first, last and
every time for John S. Pillsbury for
senator.

One of William r. Merriam's staunch-

GLOBE reporter at Minneapolis yester-
day said that he felt confident that
Hennepin county would send a solid
delegation to the state convention. He
said that Fletcher had lost his grin

Mccall, and that the Pillsburys would
probably make and appearance of sup
porting McGill, but that it would

THE JOURNAL SOLD AGAIN.
K. b. Haskell Succeeds A. j.

Blethen as Principal Owner.
The control of the Evening journal
has again changed hands, and E. B.
Haskell, of Boston, now becomes the
principal owner. Alden j. Blethen has
made up his mind that the East is good
enough for him, and has accordingly
sold out and made arrangements to
move there. Since disposing of
his Tribune interest. Mr.. Blethen
has spent very little time
IN Minneapolis, and will now be
seen here no more. 1t is understood
that since coming here he has pros
pered, and that while his various news
papers ventures have not added greatly
to his store. he has used them to further
real estate deals, and has made money.
The sale of the Journal takes effect
Sept. l, and makes no change in the
personnel of the paper as far
as the heads of departments
are concerned. Lucien Swift, Jr.,
retains his stock and his position as bus
mess head of the paper. 1t is possible
some changes may be made in the edi-
torlal department, which now includes
several personal friends of Mr.. Blethen.
1t is given out that the sale includes
the franchise, morning and evening, of
the United Press, which will shut out
its use for a morning paper to compete
with the Tribune. 1t is also intimated
the two papers will again become one
