BY INVITATION ONLY.


Many persons who expect to attend
the dedicatory exercises Of the World :
fair on oct. p will be sadly disap-
nointed when the time arrives, as II has
been announced that only those VINO
have received invitations Will DC per-
mitted TO enter the grounds.
This move has been under discussion
for several days among the managers
who think that the bridges across the
laqoons not having yet been conpleieu,
arc NOT sufficiently strong TO permit q
the large crowds passing over them m
safety; hence only limited number 81
persons will be allowed TO be present ~
the dedicatory exercises. Tho de-
cision Of the managers 10
shIs respect is wise one no
one viii dispute, as ii would imperiiii
re lives OF a large mass Of people II
tbev we're allowed 10 cross the bridge
when the structures were not IN a CON
di,ion to support the weight-Chieaso
Globe.
TIE GAzETTE's excursionists are
provided for in this respect and VIII
have reserved seats from which 70 wiz
mess the caremonies.l
Fort Worth gazette. [volume] (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1891-1898, 1892-09-30

To-day no votes will be received or
recorded by THE GAZETTE contest
editor when brought to this Office in
person by the voter. the votes to-day be-
ing deposited in box locked and seal
ed. And no coupons placed in this box
will DO received unless upon tho envel-
ope is written the name Of the roter, as
well as the names of candidates, Voters
should remember what is due THE GA
zETrE; the box will be In charge OF
this paper, and II envelopes containing
coupons, without the names OF voters
were admissible IL would subject the
employees OF the paper to ungenerous
criticism. THE GAzETTE warns all
voters that their own names and the
names Of candidates must be placed on
envelopes and wrappers containing votes
deposited to-day.
AS the vote for the state excursionists
is Of necessity, all by mail THE Ca
zETrR will, Of course, receive and re-
cord all such votes coming In Thurs
DAYS and Fridays mails; but the record
Of such votes will not be printed until
saturday or Sunday.

The Gazette's Excursion Contest
4 to Chicago and Niagara.
One More Day In Which to vote-..No
Votes Received After 9 r. M.
To-Day

Of these will be from Fort Worth and
two from outside the city. The invi-
tation will be decided by the vote as tho
GAZETTE could notand would not choose
for itself the three young ladies who
are thus to be invited to become part
Of the excursion. This invitation viii
be extended to that young lady in
Fort Worth who stands next In the
vote to the three highest, and to
those two young ladies outside Of
Fort worthwhile stand next in thevot 20
the seven highest. This announcement
would have been made before, but THE
GAZETTE could not ascertain previ-
ously that it could offer the same ae-
commodations, courtesies and honors
to such additions TO its party, and this
paper would not invite any young lady
to anything less than the original party
received. These invited contestants
will wear THE GAzETTEs beautiful
gold badge,and bel all respects, Of THE
GAzErrE's Texas excursion to the dedi-
cation and Niagara Falls. We have
known for some time that the public
looked for such courtesy from THE
GAZETTE, and therefore the announce
ment was decided on, and has been
withheld only until assurances were re-
ceived that in inviting these contest
ants to become part Of the exclusion
we could promise them no distinction
in any pleasure, entertainment or com
fort Of the trip. They will all be GA.
zETTE girls. and that means no little Of
enjoyment In Chicago.
