One OF the Exhibitions at the State Fair
That Received Great Attention.
There was nothing ON exhibition at

fulness than the Vapor Stoves, which
drew the attention Of hundreds of peo-
pie who came and examined these
stoves and had all their points thor
oughly and satisfactorily explained by
the gentlemen having them on exhibi-
ton.
Wherever these stoves are UNDER
stood an unlimited demand has been
created for them, as their equal for
convenience and comfort has never
been devised for cooking. AS is known,
these stoves are heated by gasoline
Gasoline stoves to some peoples minds
portends explosions and accidents, yet
nothing could be further from the
truth. While gasoline will ignite
quickly, it is simply impossible to ex-
plode it. This was amply proven by
experiments at the Fair yesterday,
where the vapor stoves were exhibited.
torch was put into the stove gasoline
tank and the gasoline lighted without
the least accident. The same expert
ment was made with a five gallon can
Of gasoline.
A great obstacle to the use of gaso-
line stoves has been that insurance
could not be secured where these
stoves were used. This obstacle is re-
moved where the vapor stoveA are
used, as they are absolutely safe They
are equipped with safety tank that
cannot be filled while the stove is
burning, making it impossible for
confiagration to be started. They
have also safety lighters to light the
burners with torch saturated with
gasoline instead Of drawing n cups.
These stoves are positively safe, are
cheap and will keep the kitchen per-
fectly COOL

Saw the veriscope Pictures and the Exhi-
bition BY Corbett Last Night.
A big audience was at the Wheeling
Park Casino last night to see the
Veriscope pictures and ex-Champion
Corbett. Most of them went to see
the big fellow who, with Jack McVey,
gave an exhibition of his proves in
three rounds after the pictures were
shown. The pictures were fine, as
usual, and were most cordially re-
celved by the big crowd. After they
were shown, Corbett and McVey came
on and gave a sparring exhibition in
which the fine points in the work Of
the ex-champion were shown to adj
vantage. Corbett was we'll received,
and the reception was a tribute to his
popularity. He made neat little
speech, in which he said he was fairly
beaten by Fitz and wanted another
chance. This afternoon and tonight
the last exhibitions of the fight pic
lures will be given at the Casino. The
price has been reduced to so cents, and
the interesting entertainment should

whole of 70 splendid animals are
massed together, and, in many circles
arranged in cone shape, one above the
other, execute thrilling drill, going
in opposite directions within the small
enclosure, when the scene presented is
most imposing. There are, besides the
two menageries, "a elephants, the hui
