The Industrial Exposition.

A committee of the Board of managers
for the proposed Industrial Exposition
met yesterday to confer with Judge Fitz-
gerald about the papers for the incorpor-
alton of the company. The amount of
the capital stock was subjected to dis
cussion there being a disposition on the
part of some of the members of the COM
mittee to have the amount increased
from 500 900 as proposed by the Board
to 100000 or $3.50, 600. The stock will
probably be placed on the market in
small blocks, perhaps $40 each.
The matter OF the site of the proposed
building is already exciting good deal
of quiet discussion among the large real
estate owners, and several have come
forward with offers of available property
at very low rates. and IAN agreement TO
subscribe large amounts to the stock on
condition that it shall be located where
ii will increase the value of other real
estate. Interest in the affair does not
flag, but is taking very substantial and
solid form.

Town.

The easiest way to explain who at
tended the eighth grand anniversary ball
of the German Ladies' Benevolent So
ciety last night would be to make a list
OF those members of the Germau society
il the city who were not present, for
there was crush that must have brought
a golden shower into the Golfers of the
treasury opened for so good cause. The
ball, as is usual on such occasions, was
given in the hall of the Turn
Verein Germania, and not only was
the dancing-room in that commodious
chamber full to ove1fowing but the very
galleries contained a heavy aprinkling of
spectators. A glance at the names of
the officers in charge of the proceedings
will be efficient assurance that everything
was ably and successfully arranged.
They were as follows:
Reception Committee-Judge L. Gott-
schalk, Messrs. L. Lichtenberger, J..
Miner, Charles Brodie and Jacob K uhrts.
Committee of Arrangements-Me
H. Merz, @. Jacoby, III. Forster, H.
Bruning, W. F. Grosser and D. Mahlstedt.

The Grand March was played at 8 80
o'clock, and from that hour until mid
night, waltzes, polkas, lancers. schot-
tisches, and all the other customary
dances followed in rapid succession.
Then an interval for supper, followed by
dancing, again the revelries, this time
continuing until far into the small hours.
1t was a semi-dress affair, but many
ladies took advantage of the occasion to
display the treasures of their wardrobes.
1t would be unfair, however, to make
special notice of any of the costumes
worn for due justice could not be given
without enroaching heavily on space
needed for other news. It is sufficient to
say that from financirl social and mana
gerical standpoints, the affair went off in
splendid style, and will long be remem-
bered as one of the most delightful as
semblages of the season.

MThe CreattOn.n

The Philharmonic Society, whose study
work in the interest of musical art in this
city has won recognition, have selected
for their last concert of the present musi-
cal season Haydn's great oratorio, "The
Creation"
In another column the Society extend
an invitation to all singers of this city,
who may wish to do 30, to participate in
the rehearsals of this work. The only
condition the Society imposes is that
those who apply will faithfully attend all
rehearsals, so as not to interfere with
the practicings. The two months train
ing under Prof. Willhartitz, which the
singers will receive, will be free of
charge. This is rare opportunity for
good musical schooling and improve
ment, and should be taken advantage of
by members of church choirs and congre-
cations. The next rehearsal of the So
ciety will take place tonight at the
rehearsal room of the Society in the rear
of Gardner's music store, 2l2 South
Spring street, at Z 80 P. M, where sppli
cation can be made to Prof. Willhartitz.
