store Of the Century Piano company on
Fourth street and in the ticket offices in

there are heard only words of praise for
the manpeI in which the fine collection
of exhibits has been prepared and ar
ranged by those popular stewards to
the public taste: Manager VIM

Byron. They deserve the greatest
credit, and every one seems DESTROYS of
giving it to them.

waukee exposition, was one of the call
