Reeves Band and the Monster
Street Parade.
The Exposition is to open with APP
eropriate ceremonies. Much of the
usual lengthy speech making will he
done away with. and such addresses as
there are will be very short ones.
Those who have seen the interior of the
building Oil Monday were surprised at
the different appearance it presented
yesterday. Exhibits have sprung up
like magic, and the debris cleared away
from the floor. The heavy machinery
was in motion and the various machn-
cry exhibits were being tested. The
central display about the tower is COM
pleted and presents view that once
seen will never be forgotten, SO unique
in fact that it is well worth the price of
admission for this one feature.
Col. Reeves and his band OF forty-tlve
musicians arrived i'll the city yesterday
ana were over to the building, where
they practiced a few of their numbers.
There is no mistaking the fact that the
band is an excellent one, and cannot
fail to win the applause of Minneapolis
people. 1t will begin its performances
to-day.
The ponies, the little pets of the chill
dren, have also arrived, and are taking
rest after their long journey. They
are thirty-three in number, and will no
doubt be great favorites with the Expo
sition juvenile visitors. One of them is
curiosity. 1t is three years OF age,
and is so small that child can carry it
about in its arms. The last strokes of
work were put upon the fine spectacle,
and tonight Pompeii will fall in all the
terrific grandeur of the tale of Bulwer,
which is as familiar as household
word.
