The celebration, under the auspices
Of Knox college, at Galesburg, H., Of
the thirty-eighth anniversary of the

and in point of interest will rival the

Lincoln and Douglas stood ON plat

EXPOSITION PREPARATIONS.

st. Louis, Sept. Rapid progress is
being made with hanging the pictures
in the art galleries in the exposition.
Art Director Kurtz returned early last
week from his European trip, and is
personally experimenting the hang
ing of the paintings. He is exceeding
ly enthusiastic, and says that he has
succeeded in fulfilling his promise to
give st. Louis and the west even bet
ter display than last year. AS al
ready noted, there are fewer very large
pictures than usual, but there are a
greater number of high class works of
art of medium size with very varying
subjects treated in almost every style.
Many of the works are known here by
reputation, and great majority of the
artists are celebrated on both sides of
the Atlantic. The attention which the
display of last year received in cas-
tern, and even in European circles,
and in the numerous art journals of
the world has proved of great value,
and has induced a number of promin-
ent artists not previously represented
in st. Louis to offer their best work.
There are between twenty and thirty
more pictures on view this year than
last, and 1t is expected that the sales
will reach about 100. In 1884 thirty
four paintings were sold, and this was
| regarded as something exceptional
Last year more than 20 pictures, or up
| wards of 1917 per cent of the entire
collection, were sold from the art GAL
leries of the Exposition, and this record
should be broken easily this year.
1t is the opinion of the management
that in music, as we'll as art, there will
be great treat. Advices from Man
ager Mahnken, of Gilmores band,
state that there will he more than TWEEN
ty of the late Mr.. Gilmore's favorites
with the band this year, a larger num-
Der than was generally expected. Mr..
Victor Herbert, the leader of the band,
is now selecting additional soloists, in
Guiding many of great popularity, both
in the east and in Europe. A fea-
ture of Gilmore's special tunes will be
, Incorporated, and some of the simple
} encore tunes which achieved such phe.
, nomenal triumphs will be heard again
, Among the new soloists in the band
, may be mentioned Emil Wissler, the
, famous solo clarionetist, who, it is ex.
pected, will spring into popularity
among exposition frequenters..
The spectacular feature for the open,
ing of the Exposition will be Lock
hart's elephants. These singularly in
telligent animals have been attracting
? crowded houses wherever displayed
, they are said to be the best trained
troupe of performing animals ever seel
in this country. An effort is beini
made to secure the presence of Gov
Francis at the opening Of the Exposi
: ton, and IL the engagements of tn
new secretary Of the Interior max
/ this possible, he will accept the invita-
ton. Other prominent men have ais
been asked to be present.

DISLIKE ELECTRIC EXECUTIONS,

sheriff a Dynamo.

sheriff a Dynamo.
Warden Coffin, of the state prison at
Columbus, O., came to Chicago the other
day to buy a dynamo for the electrical
apparatus to be used in the execution of
death sentences in that state hereafter.
Here, as well as in eastern cities, Mr..
Coffin failed in his object. The local
dealers said Ohio was not in their dis
trict. Mr.. Coffin called on the General
Electric and the Westinghouse people,
but they declined to take his contract.
B. E. Sunny, manager of the General
Electric, said in reference to the mat
ter:
Conditions have changed in the last
tew years, and the sale Of dynamo for
electrocution purposes would probably
not injure the trade of a company, but
electric manufacturers do not want
much to do with ghoulish business. All
the leading concerns made an effort to
prevent the sale of dynamo for Sing
Sing, but Harold W. Brown, a New
York electrician, managed to buy one
secondhand for the prison. 1t was a
Westinghouse alternator. At that
time the companies were afraid the pub
lie would get the idea that dynamos
were dangerous. The intelligent pub
lie now understands that certain cleo
trio currents will kill if not properly in
sulated and handled, the same as steam
is fatal under certain circumstances.
There are dynamos in every city now
that will furnish from 1000 to 1000
volts ard cause death. We are all OPP
posed to electrocution. The law was
passed on the theory that killing by
electricity was quick, certain and pain
less. Why not use chloroform or gas?
Either is bound to be painless, and they
are cheaper, too"
