To be a success an exposition must
have the patronage of the people, and it
must cater to their wishes in regard to
the class and character of the attrac-
lions which the public is asked to IN
spect and patronize. The exhibits must
be pleasing and instructing or they will
not take the trouble of coming the sec
ond time That the Exposition which
has been in progress in this city for the
past month, and the doors of which will
be closed on the coming Saturday, has
been success cannot be doubted, as
the Immense crowds which have gath
cred every day to see the various things
of interest in the big building have
amply testified to their complete ap-
proval. Not only have the people of
Minneapolis been to the Exposition, but
the people of the whole Northwest have
been to this city for the purpose of see
ing the magnificent array of attractions
which have been gathered together by
weeks and months OF patient toll by the
Exposition management. No one can
say that it has not been complete sue
cess.

guaranteed to be the possessors of eX-
cellent lungs, and some very fine vocal
selections are promised. The show will

hours Of 3 ana 5, and in the evening be-
tween the hours of and o. The Expo

| the season, if the prospects are made
| good. Every one Will want to come and
see the exposition on the day of the

having the Exposition next year, but
there has as yet been nothing done in
an official manner. neither has 1t been
discussed at length by those who are
interested in the success Of the enter

nearly half million people in the Elk

never beaten in the history of the en-
terprise.
