tiOn.

The attendance at the Exposition yester-
day was uniformly good, the fine weather
calling out large numbers of people who un-
doubtedIy thought that the best place they
could go to pass away the time was to the
great show. where so much is found to inter-
est those who have the time to spare to at
tend it. 1t is certainly a pleasant place
to go of an afternoon, and at no
other can the time pass as rapidly
as it does there, where the aisles
are lined on every side with pretty things to
catch the eye and please the fancy OF
course the Exposition drew an immense at
tendance in the evening and it came fully
up to the expectations of the people. Prof.
Stempf has certainly done remarkably well
In his work, and the chorus shows the result
OF his careful training. The voices were
good, the time perfect, and the encores they
received proved how well the audience was
pleased with their work.
The art gallery drew large attendance and
merits all its success, for there are daily
studies TO be found within its walls In the
four great pictures, after designs by Dore,
which hang IN the largest gallery of the Ex-
position down stairs, Christ Leaving the
Pratorium'' and Christ's Entry Into Jerusa-
lem (both 20x30 teeD, the dream of Pi-
late's Wife, and 1.-The Christian Mar
tyrs:" may be seen some of the

and great originality of treatment There is
none of that madness of fancy seen in some
OF his illustrations, which are familiar to ev-
erybody. Of these last the celebrated critic
Jarves says: He transforms all nature into
demoniacal forces in keeping with weird
scenery invoked by his Imagination 1t is or
ganIc spirit even more than nature which we
see in his designs. If the devil has ever cre-
ated such an office as designer-in-chief to
hell, it is now filed by Dore.'
But the man of which that was written is
man no more. though his works live after
him. ''Christ's Entry into Jerusalem depicts
an event which can be accurately dated, the
22d of March. a month before His death He
is represented riding upon the ass, having
just passed one of those Corinthian gateways
erected by the luxurious Herod. Immedi-
ately behind the central group are the holy
mother, the apostles and the seventy.
Peter is there at the left, and the
"Sons of Thunder" at the right. The eager
crowds throng every available spot whence a
view can be gained. A group of high born
Roman ladies sit, guarded by soldiers, to look
upon all the excitement, and the yelled Jew
ish women come also to look Many bow be-
fore Him as He passes, throwing palms and
even their cloaks upon the ground for Him

The gymnastic performance of the Mime
apolls Athletic union which was to have oc-
CURED at the Exposition last night, will be
given Thursday night instead. This was
done in order TO accommodate Prof Stempf' s
chorus. The performance will take place on
temporary stage on the third floor dieectly
across the light well from the band stand

and Will no doubt prove very attractive en-
tertainment.
