The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1892-09-22

To be sure, some OF them are not en-
dowed with any too great amount of mer-
camille ability, and, therefore, they lose
many quarters and half dollars they might
otherwise be able to secure.
Last night was decidedly an Oakland and
Alameda night, and the great majority of
the visitors came from across the bay.
The orchestra played the overture to
"Rienzi" as the Oakland societies marched
around the hall
The Drill Corps of the American booth
gave an exhibition and The great chorus OF
male singers delighted the audience by rem
derng several songs.
There was also an exhibition Of gymnas-
ties Oy the Turner's.
The latter have opened headquarters in
the Pavilion, located on the Larkn-street
side of the building and bearing the sign
yiele wenlg machen Elm We'll,
Vereinte Kraefte fuehrt bald zum Ziel.
All the ladies in the booths were kept
busy entertaining their visitors and in many
of them there were private performances
not down on the programme.
One Of the most charming entertainments
was given In that gem of booth. the Turk
ish Mosque, which. beyond any doubt, IS one
of the biggest attractions at The fair.
The Misses L. and A. Frauenholz, T.
Rothe, NJ. Scbilling and L. Gundlach.
clothed in their beautiful oriental costumes
and looking as lovely as any group out OF
ConstantinOple's four hundred best girls,
mounted the little stage in their booth and
in most charming manner sang melody
TO Miss A. StTaGch's accompaniment.
The words were comical iumble-Eng
lish, German and Turkish, all mixed up
and to hear these girls sing them was a rare
treat.
"AlI Ali All Mustapha schwor bel dem
propheten that twenty-five wives he ought
70 at Of
fearful and wonderful song. which de-
lighted the visitors so greatly that 1t had to
be repeated over and over again.
BY the way. there is one Mussulman in
that Turkish booth. Just one and only one
man among all these gOod-loOklng Oriental
women.
His name is, when he Is not dressed up
in Bagdsd trousers and Cairo whiskers,
Edward Muecke, but every night during
the week he will be cali All Mustapha"
and the enyied of all the male visitors TO
the charming Turkish booth.
Another booth which had large number
of visitors asst night was the Aron Museum,
where the Ari0n Singing Society gave
concert and where the La Tosca girls did
the honors for their guests.
That Arion crowd is lively one indeed
ard it is sure to make record before the
fair is over.
Few booths seem TO have as many friends
as the Arion has, and during the early hours
of the evening it is hardly possible to find
even standing room inside OF that Enclosure.
That gorgeous Temple of Flora is among
the most favorite attractions, and IL Is colt
stantly surrounded by an admiring crowd.
The place has one fault and that is that
It is built too high from the floor, which
makes it Impossible for its patrons to reach
the fragrant wares so deity handled by the
pretty flower-girls.
In the American booth the voting was going
Oh at lively rate, President Harrison hav-
ing the advantage over his competitors and
Baby Ruth being thirty-three votes ahead
of Baby Mckee.
The neatly uniformed girls in that booth
are bard workers. and deserve much credit
for the energy they display.
The Jewish ladies' restaurant is popular
place. not only because the viands served
are of the best, but principally because the
waIter-girls are very attractive.
The same thing must be said of Mrs.
Kloppenburg's coffee-stand. where eager
maidens exhibit a wonderful amount of
peTsisteDcv in endesyoring TO sell not only
coffee but likewise coffee tickets.
The Odd Fellows Museum has added
great and unparalleled fortune-teller to Its
already numerous attractions.
1t is understood that this particular for
tune-teller never makes mistake, and that
all her predictions will surely come true.
That museum Is peculiarly mysterious
place, and one never knows what he is
going to see when he once enters that place.
A pile of frebricks attract considerable
attention in front of the souvenir booth.
They are costly bricks, bringing S. piece
when they are sold. but the buyers name
will be engraved on the brick he selects and
the brick will be one of those that will be
used in the construction Of the portal to the
Altenheim.
In this manner one has chance TO be-
come immortaliZed for s..
Nappenbach's artistic designs in the Rath
Haus wineroom excite much admiration and
they are worthy of Ii. 1t is rarely one has
a chance TO see any paintings like these in
this city. They are full of life, true to
history and skillfully executed.
The beer-garden is one of the bestpatron-
lied Institutions In the fair, and red waist
coated gentlemen had to volunteer their
services last night in order to relieve the
hard-woTking waiter-girls temporarily.
That postoffice Is all awfully busy place.
Everybody seems TO be for ever writing
letters to everybody else. There is not
much information 10 these missiyes either.
A dudish young fellow got one last nigh.
1t was handed to him by roguish mes
senger in the regulation uniform, who col
lected ten cents and then skipped.
There was look of disappointment on
that young mans face after he read that
letter. 1t did not seem to contain q loving
message from fair damsel, as he perhaps
expected IL would.
He would not tell anybody just what was
written on the sheet of paper he found in
side OF that envelope, but that 1t contained
something not 10 his liking was SO evident
that he could not conceal it.
