DRAWING TO THE END
The Great Thirteenth Regiment Band
Coming 10 the Exposition.
LAST NIGHT FOR THE WESTERN.
People Are Reminded That the Show viii
Close October 10.
FURTHER ATTRACTIONS PROMISED

The Great Western Band finished its en-
gagement at the Exposition last night. The
famous Thirteenth Regiment Band, of New
York, will take its place until the great
show closes on October 10. Many will be
sorry to see the Great Western go. but the
band coming has worldwide reputation,
and something fine in the musical line can
be expected. The leader is one of the best
trombone soloists in the country. The
Thirteenth will begin its short engagement
to-day.
The flower show of Fridav was continued
throughout yesterday. and the elaborate
designs exhibited by the competing florists
tlons to the original display were made, SO
that the floral exhibition yesterday was
practically new one
Many of the exhibits, too, have been
completely renewed within the past day or
two, and the visitor now sees display that
is entirely different in many of its features
from that OF a week ago. As time passes
the exhibitors seem to rise to the occasion,
and the result is that the Exposition is very
similar to a kaleidoscope in its constantly
changing displays. The management,
moreover, by dint of much hard work, have
got things to running as smoothly as we'll
along with no friction anywhere.
