St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1895-08-26

those firms who secured space early to
give up some part of it to late appli-
cants. This, too, notwithstanding the
fact that the big dining hall has been
placed at his disposal And the dis
plays to be made in the main building
will be as generous in artistic features
as in size.
Agricultural hall will not begin to
hold the exhibits already in sight.
Some of the stock barns will have to
be utilized by superintendent Furlong
in placing exhibits; but these barns
will very readily adapt themselves to
decoration, and even the most elabo-
rate displays can find room therein
In connection with the agricultural ex-
hlbits will be very fine showing in the
lines of horticulture and Horticulture
managed by Wyman Elliott, of Mime
apolis.
1--WE thought we had a very respect
able array Of dairy products last year;
but this time we will more than double
on it. Superintendent Graham has
worked to most excellent purpose in
securing this result, and he will put
before our visitors such a layout of
dairy products as has never before
been seen in Minnesota
President Weaver, head of the ma
chinery department, tells me that in
previous years it has often been neces-
sary to appeal to the manufacturers to
make exhibits. This year the trouble
will be to find accommodation for all
who have of their own accord applied
for space. Some very handsome ma
chimes will be here, and also the newest
and best in every line.
'All strains and every standard va
riety Of horses, cattle and swine will be
represented by notable animals in the
sections presided over by Col. Liggett,
J. H. Letson and Col. Chambers.
"In addition to these regular features
there will be a large number of special
attractions. For instance, 1 received
notice this morning that a fence manu-
facturer is coming from Adrian, Mich,
with a herd Of deer, elk and other ami
mails which will be seen in an enclosure
surrounded by his fencing. Corn har-
vesting machinery will be set at work
in a field of standing corn on the
grounds, and roadmaking machinery
will likewise be exhibited in actual
service. Time between heats Of the
races will not be allowed to drag. Dr.
Carver will give daily exhibitions of
his really marvellous skill with a gun.
The Kilpatricks, trick bicyclists, have
also been engaged as an extra attrac-
ton, and reports credit them with Civ
ing novel and pleasing performance.
Monday will be bicycle day, and it
is reasonably well assured that this
feature is going to be decidedly pop
ular. Tuesday tis Labor day, Wednes-
day Minneapolis day, Thursday St.
Paul day, Friday farmers day, Satur-
day newspaper day. Programmes
have been prepared for each day that
are appropriate and laden with good
things to please all sorts of people.
Not the least notable arrangement for
the comfort and accommodation of Wis
itors will be the tented city on the
high ground over yonder. Each tent
will accommodate six persons and can
be had in unlimited numbers from DR..
j. c. Curryer, on the grounds. Season
admission tickets will cost but 50, and
at a moderate cost meals can be Sc
cured on the grounds. Thus it will be
seen that any one who wants to live
on the grounds during the fair can
have a most excellent opportunity to
do so and avoid the running backward
and forward between the cities and the
fair grounds
VICE PRESIDENT MGINNIS
says everybody is enthusiastic in the
highest degree for the fair. [ am at
a loss as to what to do for space. 1t
