A BANNER DAY.
increasing Crowds Flock to the
Great Industrial Exhibit.

Yesterday was one of the banner
days for the Exposition, and there were
more people in the big building than
there has been during almost any of the
previous days. All day long they
poured in through the doors, and the
members of the gentler sex were in the
majority.
In the evening the members of the
Minneapolis Choral union gave num-
Der OF selections, which were received
with the greatest enthusiasm. Each
one OF them was encored, and the i'm
mense audience seemed to appreciate
the excellence of the entertainment
The hall in which the Sanford Sisters
give their concert was packed from the
moment that the doors were opened for
their admission, and all of the reserved
seats were sold. The immense crowd
was large enough to occupy all of the
extra space i'll the building, and none
of the exhibitors had any reason to OBJ
ject to the manner in which their dis
plays were attended to. Everything in
the building received its proper amount
OF attention, and there were enough
people to make every one seem per-
fectly pleased.
The art gallery received its share of
the patronage of the people and they
were admiring the various works of art
all day long. The expressions of ap-
prOyal at the various excellent works of
art were numerous, and none but words
of praise were heard from the many
thousands of people. The tunuel in the
rear OF the of the representation of the
cliff dWellers' home was filed all of the
afternoon. and there we're MANY shouts
of laughter at those who made attempts
to enter the surprise" caverns, which
are nothing but looking glasses, but
which nave such natural appearance
as to fool nearly every one.
When the doors were opened for the
commencement of the great spectacle
of the "Siege of Vera Cruz the people
made great rush for the seats. The
ticket sellers had all they could attend
to supplying them with seats, and the
men at the door had considerable
trouble in getting the crowd into the
amphitheater.
The attendance yesterday was 2S,673.
Don't forget the baby show which
| will be given one week from to-day in
| the light well. Prizes are to be given to
| all kinds of babies.
| Visitors to the Exposition building,
who are interested in mining, find a
great attraction in the display which is
made on the first floor, of a quartz
crusher. which takes piece of stone
and chews 1t up into dust before you
could say Jack Robinson. The machine
is not great heavy affair, such as such
machines are popularity supposed to be,
but it is little affair, not much bigger
than good sized coffee pot. The quartz
is fed into the machine
cannon balls reyolve and smash and
grind the material into powder. The
big pieces of rock which are fed INTO
the breaker come out dust as fine as
| flour. In the dust can be seen the SHIN
| Ing particles of metal, which are re-
moved by chemical process. Or, if
the owner desires, he can run stream
of water through the machine and wash
the gold out in that manner. The
machine runs wet or dry ore. To min
ing men the SmallneSS OF this machine,
with the amount of work which it is
capable of doing, makes 1t a valuable
addition to the machines which are
in use, and opens up new fields
which have been unused from the fact
that it was impossible to carry the
heavy machinery to these places. The
heaviest portion of this new one is only
$50 pounds, and the total weight is only
$50 pounds. A mule can pack the
whole of it to any place where an ami
NAL can go. The machines are exhibited
by men who have made a study of
mining, and this is the first one of the
kind which has ever been shown.
The firm which owns the patents and
which is exhibiting them is the Ameri-
can Manufacturing and Milling COM
pany. To the poor mining man the new
machines are boon.
