 man, contralto; M Seton, basso; w.
 Xanten, tenor; Ethan Allen, basso,
 and Clay C. Ferguson, tenor.
 In the afternoon the first part will be
 followed by the descriptive spectacle,
 "A Day at the Worlds Fair" a synpp-
 sis of which is as follows:
 PART I.-MORNING. The idylle, with which the spectacle opens Is descriptive of the somberness
 of early dawn. The songs of natures 'sfeathered prima donnas" and the growing of the cock, herald the arrival of new day, which is f1ttingly begun with the morning prayer. A short cho- rus, full of glad anticipation follows, and we find ourselves boarding the big steamboat, "Columbus.'' The sail down the lake front, with the occasion al voices, raised in song, which comes from the passing boats will be familiar to most of us. Landing, we stroll up the Casino pier to the strains of one of the several bands within earshot, and turning into Music hall, we hear a solo for Basso Paderewski's ininlita- ble rendition of a. Chopin waltz, and a we'll known aria for soprano. The fan fare of medieval trumpets announces that a short walk has brought us to the foreign section in the colossal | Manufacturers building. and we visit in turn, Germany, Austria, Italy, l Great Britain, Russia and France; the national anthems of the two last-nam- ed being tremendously interwoven in an entirely origial manner; and which, giving occasion as it does for tenor solo, quartet, chorus, band and grand ensemble, gives fitting close to this part of the work.
 PART II.--NOON AND NIGHT. The opening of Part finds us in Festival hall, where the immortal Wagner is represented by perform ance of his wierdly descriptive wal kyrie's Ride" The aria by Gluck, fol- lows, and we hear Handel's grandoise
 "Hallelujah Chorus pealing forth as we leave for our trip through the most unique feature of Chicago's great show, '"The Midway" Here our ears are as- sailed by couple of well known street songs of the day, played as only a
 Midway" band could play them. We visit in turn, Hagenbeck's Cairo thea ter, Old Vienna, and Dahomey Village. And now the music of the oars, the shining arches, the columns of St. Mark, the gondoliers, the blue sky and glistening waters-a Venice resurrect- ed and glorified-all tell us that we are making the round of the lagoon We reach the famous court of honor, fret ted with fires that out-spangle the vault of heaven, with flying fountains batled in floods of rainbow lights, and
 
 tering crowns-the waters resounding with the plaudits of the thousands up- on thousands in attendance upon the regular evening concert of the famous Innes, The fireworks give an addition al zest to the scene, and as we hear the strains of our own glorious national anthem, "The tSar Spangled Banner taken by band, chorus, cannons and
 audience, we know that
 Another day has passed Into the bosom of the night.''
 The evening program will differ in
 so far that the second part will be the grand musical spectacle called "War
 and Peace.'' of which the following is a synopsis:
 Part I.-"The Call to Arms
