Tomorrow.
While the tremendous jam of the
opening days was absent, there was a
very good attendance at the fair yes
teroay, and the exhibit looked almost
as fresh as when the exposition first
opened. The display remains practi-
caily intact, and but little is missed
from the building Visitors manifested
the same keen interest noticeable last
week, and in continuing the fair the
directors have shown excellent judg-
ment.
Held's band was present throughout
the day and furnished splendid music.
THE BALLOON ASCENSION.
AT $3.50 p. m. everybody left the
building to see the balloon ascension,
which was equally successful with it's
predecessors. Again the professor took
a canine companion with him. and
again he cut loose the first parachute
at distance of nearly zoo feet and
the dog returned to terra firma badly
frightened, but not at all hurt. Pro-
fessor Harris flight was as successful
as all his former ones have been.
IN THE MORNING.
The attendance during the morning
was even larger than in the afternoon
and the scene was quite brilliant.
The Criterion quartette, composed of
Charles S. Sager, William Jones, Cy-
sus Lindewl and Master Blalcher, rem
dered several excellent selections,
among them being Might Shades"
Friends" a medley and some planta-
ton melodies. The singers delighted
the large audience
On Wednesday afternoon and even
ing, when the old folks, and those who
cannot afford to pay for admission are
TO be admitted free, the Criterion Spec
ialty company will be one of the attrac-
tions.

wOMAN'S WORK.
All visitors to the fair take great
pride, and justly so, in the woman's
department, which occupies the north
end of the upper gallery. Mrs. Marga-
ret Came who was one of the leading
spirits of the woman's department of
Utah's exhibit at the Worlds fair. and
who had charge of the Utah exhibit at
the Midwinter fair, is the supervisor
and is assisted by Miss Howat and
Miss Jennie Howat.
The most interesting feature by rea-
son Of its deep significance to all who
have studied the resources of Utah. is
the display of home manufactured
silks. Miss Florence Harrison explains ,
and illustrates the process of reelfng
silk and Miss Ella Pyper operates an L
old fashioned loom, showing the prim-
ttive style of manufacturing the deli
cate fabric. In a large glass case are
to be seen specimens of reeled and
spun silk and hundreds Of cocoons, ar
ranged with a view to artistic COM
binations of colors. The beautiful silk
both the aforementioned fairs, are ex-
hibited.
An exhibit that attracts much atten-
ton is that made by Mrs. Priscilla
Jennings sewing class. That lady's
well known benevolence has found ex-
preston in a class, in which she aims
to instruct women in needlework, plain
and ornamental Mrs. Jennings saws
that in order to compete with eastern
labor of the same kind. the garments
must be cheap, and in order that the
products be cheap the workers must
be rapid. She therefore tries to teach
first, thoroughness and then rapiditv.
The little garments-they are all for
children-are models in plain sewing.
