THE WIND UP.
The Industrial Fair Closes Tonight
The Attractions.

|
The Attractions.
| Dispute the Indictment weather, and the
great counter.attraction at Harper's the
atre, there was fair attendance at the
industrial fair last evening. Many who
had attended nearly every night since
the opening, found much to interest and
instruct them, and there is every indica-
ton that tonight will witness one of the
biggest crowds of the week. All the ar
will be disposed of, and those holding
chance tickets should be present. All
tickets purchased at the door entities the
purchaser to chance on bird and cage
for the ladies, and barrel of flour for
the gentlemen. The prizes to be given
as result of last nights door sale, will
likewise be determined upon tonight.
The fair has been grand success,
credit to the labor organizations of Rock
Island which have taken the responsible
ity upon their shoulders, and a credit to
our people for taking such interest and
such aid to an enterprise of
this kind. If the attendance tonight is
what it should be, it is safe to predict
that out of the proceeds of the far, the
Industrial Home fund will get a starter of
50 900 at least. Go tonight everybody
and 'whoop 'em up" for the last time.

Carl Hermann, of Conreid & Hermann, in
speaking OF the plans of the firm for the
coming season TO a New York Mirror re-
porter, said;
"Mr. Conreid is In st. Louis at present
and when he returns he will start at once
for Europe, returning in time for the fall
season. Mr.. Conreid Will put on all the op-
eras al the Columbia Theatre in Chicago,
while the house itself will be managed by
Messrs. Morton & Perley. The season there
will not begin until after election, the sec
ond or third week in November.
Now, 20 hold a good company together
until that time they must have somethin g
70 do meantime. Consequently our present
company are playing AT Uhrig's Cave, St
Louis They have a repertoire of eight
operas. and VIII doubtless do a satisfac-
tory business during the summer. When
the most exciting time of the election comes
on, they will only be too glad-having
worked all summer-to lay of for few
weeks. Then the rehearsals will be begun.
The best people in the choruses will be re-
tanned, and, as the company is a strong one,
even q il is small, ii ought TO do well The
season at the Columbia will open with The
Court Jester by Czibulka, which will prob
ably run four weeks. Then each opera in
our repertoire viii be given a week, max
ing another eight weeks. THE Thirteen
Club by Genee, will be presented for an
other four weeks. which will end the six
teen weeks season. We will then come to
New York and play the ten operas here.
