brass lamps, or Merfden, are worthy Of
 special mention. Last evening coffee was
 served at the Manning & Co.'S booth.
 Their exhibit consists of some very fine
 specimens of pearl agate ware. MT. A. F.
 Hall, the genial representative of the com
 pany, will explain the excellence of his wares to the best advantage and also serve you cup of coffee fresh made on the spot The Hall Signal company's exhibit attract ed considerable attention. Perhaps the largest crowd was around the Combination Dynamo and Engine Armature exhibit. MT. J. George Pool of this city is the inventor of the armature which is series wound. The machine works with out belt or balance wheel, and has much greater capacity of work than the old kind of dynamo. The inventors of the combination dynamo and engine, as dis tinguished from the amateur, are New Haven men, but prefer to withhold their names for the present. Another applica- ton of electricity, which Rin eventually be of great importance, in the Rich cleo tric heater. This is in the booth on the left hand at the south end of the hall. MT. c. Clayton Rich, patentee and inven- tor, is now organizing 8 company at Mt Vernon, N. Y, and the heater will be on the market by spring. It is for all kinds Of heating, as house heating, cooking, rail road car heating. Their booth is opposite the Ashcroft Manufacturing company and the E. s. Greeley Electric Go, both of New York and whose exhibits are lighted by the Rich dynamos. The southeast and southwest portions of the hall are devoted to the floral exhibits of George A. Dicker- man. In the southeast side will be found fine collection of shells, palms and other flowers. The other side is devoted to cut flowers. To those who arc attached to the older methods of lighting, the exhibit of the American Automatic Light company will be of interest. They light a number of the stations on the Consolidated and other public buildings. They claim by their system three gallons of oil will do as much work as l 1000 feet of gas, thus sav- ing 15 per cent. The entire exhibit is in sured free of charge by L. B. Hinman, 63 Church street.
 The Second Regiment band rendered some fine music in the course of the even ing, noticeable among which was the popu- lar air of "Poor Jonathan" At the pres ent time we feel safe in saying there is not place in Connecticut where one can spend a more enjoyable evening.

 Last night the lieutenant of the Blues entered protest as to the manner of voting for colonels, wanting separate box for each colonel. The committee de cided that one box was sufficient, ss the envelopes, if properly designated by com pany and regiment, could not well be mis- taken. The decision was brought to the attention, and while under dis cussion by the committee, the lieutenant and others Colonel Doherty and staff en- tered the Blues room and the whole mat ter was referred to him. He sustained the course as absolutely fair and impartial.
