And in Less Than a Week the
Great Show Is to Be-
gin.
Some Of the improvements
and New Features to Be
Seen.
Arrangements for the Parade
on the Opening
Day.
The Art Gallery--Arrange-
ment Of Rooms,
Etc.

A feature of the Improvements in the
exposition building which has not been
spoken of to great extent is the new
entrance. 1t stands inside of the turn
stiles and consists of large archway,
beautifully decorated and fanked by
long tables covered with beautiful
flowers. In front of it will be placed
large aquarium filled with all manner
of fish. while hanging from the beams
the whole interspersed with electric
lights. The effect cannot be anything
but favorable to the beholder. and it is
certainly a great Improvement.
General Manager Byron has received
a favorable reply from the Misses
Marsh, who are conducting the Mime
opOlis school of physical culture and
ladies' gymnasium, to the effect that
they will be pleased to give an exhibit
tion by their pupils at some future date
to be decided.
At meeting of the committee ap-
pointed by the council to aid in making
the opening day a success, held yester-
day, it was decided to recommend that
the mayor AMI council participate in
the parade in carriages and that the
fire department be also ordered out.
This will make most imposing parade.
as the solGiery from Fort Smelling, the
militia, number of civic organiZa-
tons and, in all probability, Gov. Mer
riam and his brilliant suite Will also be
present.
A great deal of work has been done
OIL the exhibits since the beginning of
tine week. and they are assuming great
shape. Messrs. Powers Il Weightman's
superb drug display is nearly ready,
and when seen will cause sensation.
Every known drug. essential oil. and
everything from which drugs are made
or oils extracted, is on view in beautiful
glass cases. This is the same display
that this famous Philadelphia house
made at London and Paris some time
ago. aud it is beauty.
Prof. Stempf'S and Prof. RaymOnd'S
chorus concerts are going to be great
features this season. and will attract
great deal of attention. Fred Inpes is
hard at work on the music for the
former, and it will prove revelation
when heard.
Prof. W. b. Servy. the famous aero
naut and parachute man. was at the eX-
position building yesterday. The pro-
fessor will be remembered As making
the descents from the top of the tower
last fall. He makes an ascension and
descent at Leip's Park, White Bear
Lake. on Sunday next.
Frank +. Davis has been invited to
deliver the address on the opening day,
and will probably accept.

THE ILLUMINATION
To Extend From the City Hall
Across the Bridge

To Extend From the City Hall
Across the Bridge.
A good many little matters were con-
sidered in committee at the city hall
yesterday, but the subject of prime in
terest and Importance was the action of
the committee on ways aud means in
regard to street Illumination. 1t had
been feared that the impoverished COR
dition OF the city'S finances might pre-
vent the municipal appropriation. with
out which the illumination would hardly
be possible George HUM was on hand
to plead the cause of the exposition
directors. Though the expected OBJ
lection of needed retrenchment arose.
the committee concluded to recommend
the appropriation of $1,000 for this pur
pose. This is the same amount allowed
last year. and there isn't much question
about the councils approving the COM
mittee's report.
MIR. Huhn states that the illumination
will not be on Nicollet avenue. but from
the bridges to the exposition building.
This will give chance for variety and
for working in some novel effects. The
$1,000 appropriation will not. of course,
cover all the expense, but the balance
will be readily raised by citizens.

A Shocking Tragedy.

The bodies of the three sisters who
committed suicide at LIE Vesinet yes
'erday, were temporarily inferred this
morning in the local cemetery in the
presence IF the Mayor and other
officials. A crowd assembled in the
neighbourhood OF the house, and
comments on this terrible tragedy
were indulged in freely. The un-
fortunate ladies, whose anne was
CuVeIier, where in comfortable car
cumstances when they took the villa
in which the dreadful deed was done.

being sixty, and tae youngest forty

Point az we'll ms in Rutcliffhigh
way, A Parliamentary Committee was
appointed 10 study and investigate the
question by the last Chamber, and
the Report which has Just been issued
is highly favourable Ia the proposed
plans of the engineers. The document
in question, which has been drawn up
by NJ. Gomot, Deputy for the Depart
ment of the Puy-de-D Dome, begins
rather grandiIoqucntIy: "Your conf
mite has considered, gentlemen, that

fore intends TO call upon The Cham
Der to vOtr the adoption of the Bill
called "Paris port DE- mer," which
provides for the deepening Of The Seine
between Rouen and the Capital. In
the meantime it may be noted that
the proposed dredging OF the river
between the cities mentioned would
be- not only useful in n commercial
but also in a stratpgicaI why. IN the
event of another 'Siege of Paris" ~,
" small river gunbonts Of the stamp

or other military duty on the Seine.
If, however, the stream were deep.

f"IiIla of large war-veS"eIs might
easily be despatched from Hrvre 10
the outskirts of Paris, md their nc
sion-in conjunction with that of the
powerful forts with which the city is
now nenrly encircled-would do Ae-
rious damage to an invading force.
Such q feet, for instance, might we'll

~. Then, on the following dsy, the
landlord, to whom several quarters
rent was due, sent a messenger with
a%,letter claiming his money, threat
ening srvere MEASURES if it were not
forthcoming. The,man was not nd
mitted, but in her reply the eldest of
the ladies limited darkty at suicide.
No attention, however, was then paid
to her remarks. Yesterday morning,
about eight O'clock, a butchers boy
who h"d gone with -snme meas, to The
villa noticed that smoke was issuing
from the windows. He hurried to
the Marie, and gave the alarm, and
soon several officials and the firemen
were on the scene of the catastrophe.
The smoke was then so dense that
they could not effect an entry through
the front door, so they tried one of
the windows. In this room a horri-
BILE spectacle met their view. The.
corpse Of the youngest sister COM
pIeteIy charred, was lying on a still
burning bed. The fremen now de-
voted their attention to the exti"c-
ton of the flames, which was ccom
plished with considerable difficulty
Then exploring further they came to
an upper chamber, on II sofa in
which lay the bodies of the two elder
sisters, each with q revolver in her
hand. The sofa was also in flames,
and the twO bodies were badly scOrch-.
ed. On the ground floor were found
the Newfoundland dog aud q cat
both shot f; Will" in the stable Inv the
horse riddled with bullets. On q
table near the door were two letters,
one of which explained that the
women had committed suicide. They
were going 10 join their dead mother,
They wished to be- buried ~ they
were found at Jouy-rn,J o*os, nPar
Versailles, where their mnth"r'A re-
mains repoW. The other miSsive,
written to the dealer who supplied
them with fodder for the horse, con-
tanned a sum Ot money still due to
him. This was the only debt that
they could defray, aud in their affec-
ton for the poor beast they Ind de
cided that Whatever it had cost them
should be paid. The three sisters
who seem to have been somewhat
eccentric in their habits-lived quite
alone, one looking alter the t"v"urite
horse, another doing the cooking,
while til" third kept the gnrden tidy.
No one was ever asked to the place.
I his shocking drama is the talk OF
all the country round, and has crea-
ted quite a sensation in Paris. From
further particulars just to hand, it
appears hal the two elder sisters

Governor Lee is now en- route to Floridl.
and therefore could not be interviewed on
this subject Yesterday, and at the Capitol no
one was prepared to say positively whether
he would accept or decline this position.
The company owns very valuable IRON
lands and meaBs to develop them and may
grow into rich and prosperous enter
prise.
IL is known that 1t the end OF hIs term,
January /, 1890. Governor Lee means to go
into bdsiness-iie, aud 1t may be that this
election will be q steD in the direction which
be desires TO take, and that arrangements
can be made for the company 10 get Slorg
without his Official services until the time
when, relieved Of personal cares, be viii be
able TO give il the attention il needs.
Among the company's directors are a
number Of the Governors intimate personal
friends. and i: is safe 10 say that they would
not have elected him bad they not felt pretty
certain that the movement would be agreea-
bic to hlm.
A number OF kilograms sent from here 20
northern papers indicate that IN Florida the
Governor will Join Dir. Cleveland and with
him go 10 Cuba. II may be so, but the Gov

his trip to Florida, and no made no mention
at all OF joining the ex.Presidenps party.

Police CoIirl.

The docket in the Police Court yesterday
morning was a very trilng one. on the
eases disposed OF the following were the
most important:
Robert Williams (colored was charged
with contempt OF court IN that he sneaked
out OF the prisoners pen, where he was put
to await the calling Of his case about Ten
days ago, when he and number of others
were charged with being dIsorderly and
gambling. There was large crowd m court
at the time, aud while there was great pres-
sure about the door TO the pen he quietly
walked out unobservcd. 4 few days later
he was arrested under an assumed name on
another charge, aud while IN jail some oi Ms
"pals," who had gone down IN default Of
the payment OF their fines, "gaye him away u"
and he WAS hauled up. lie was tined 80 Tor
contempt and s. and costs Tor beng dls'

Lee Robinson aliGs Edward Jackson (col-
ored), who Is already serving q term IN jail,
was brought up TO answer the charge oi
stealing an 0vercOat worth $780, the property
OF some person unknown. The case wa
not fullg made cut, but tbe accused was re-
quired to give security for twelve months IN
the sum Of 500, IN default OF Which BE- was

NEW KENT POISONING.
Man Soon TO be Married supposed TO
HIVE Beeu Killed.

Sheriff Royster, OF New Kent county, ar
rived In the city Yesterday with the stomach
OF Robert W Gathers, colored man who died
very suddenly few days ago in that coun-
tv, and foul play Is suspected. The stomach
was brought here to Dr. William II. Taylor
TO be anslyzed.
Mr.. Royster said that Weathers was to have
been married In a short time; that he called
TO see his intended, and while there was
given drink Of water by some one and a few
minutes after drinking IL nc was taken sick
aud continued 10 grow worse, and after some
days died
The Sheriff was not authorized to make
any contract with DIR. Taylor foe his SER
vices in doing the analysis, and Yesterday
afternoon returned home, taking the stomach
with him.
The State law makes no adequate provi-
sion for analyses such az this, and unless the
county or city interested chooses to assume
payment the accused goes scot free. Nine
times out OF ten the material is sent TO Rich
mond before any arrangement Is made with
the analytical chemist.
Yesterday the Sheriff insisted upon leaving
the stomach with the Doctor. while be Ohe
Sheriff went back 10 New Kent to consult
the authorities, but the Doctor, knowing
that 10 be the custodian OF the stomach for
any length Of time would bring him in as a
witness whether he was employed or not, de-
clined 10 receive IL.
Among the aw-oficers OF the Common
wealth and doctors making post mOrtems
there is great Ignorance Of the requirements
of criminal law az bearing on chemical
analyses, aud often this ignorance causes the
prosecution to lose its case.
In this Instance, however. no harm be-
yond delay appears to have been done.

AuExcisinx Runaway.

There was an exciting runaway on Frank
lin street yesterday afternoon about quar-
ter to O'Clock.
A horse and buggy owned by colored
man named Turner was lett standing on
Main street, and the animal becoming rest
less started up Main street aud turned up
Twelfth.
Finding that there was no restraint the
now frightened steed increased Its speed,
aud when the buggy rounded the curve At
the corner OF Twelfth aud Franklin streets
the wheels were revolving so rapidly that
they looked to be solid. An electric car was
passed at this point, and wonder it Is that
the curve was made by the unguided beast
without collision or mishap.
The horse was finally stopped near the Old
market No one was In the buggy at the
time. The shafts were broken; but the ye-
hicIe was not otherwise seriously injured.
The occurrence attracted 4 great crowd all
the way down Franklin street.
