Ar THE RIG FOOD sHoW.

At the food show times were lively again yesterday afternoon and evening. Animated things enjoyed the show and ] employed the time capturing the sou i venirs and samples with unabated in- terest. Manager Chidsey and Major Beardsley were kept busy in their work of supervision and MT. Chidsey received many congratulations yesterday on the results of the exhibition and the wide public interest evinced therein The lectures by Mrs. Rorer are well attend ed, ladies coming from all parts of the city and vicinity to attend, and her lectures are alone worth far more than the price of admission to the exhibition. One of the sights of the show is the rush Of people to get the pretty yeast cake souvenirs given out at the hand 1 some exhibition booth of Fleischmann | x O., and a happy thought was the taking of snap shot picture of the throng of people surging around the ] carriage by an amateur photographer, l which shows the eager expectant faces, the many fair hands extended to re- ceive the little souvenirs which Man ager Lawton's son is handing out to the eager multitude while Miss Lawton, his sister, is diving her hands into the supply of souvenirs and passing them out to her brother as fast as she can. Two blue-coated guardians of the peace keeping the throng in hand are seen also.
 At the fine booth where Mrs. Walter D. Skilton and his assistants give out samples of their German salad over 1000 cook books were given out to the public on Wednesday,, and the supply was temporarily exhausted. This Mrs. | Holbrook's German salad which they supply, is advertised in another column by S. w. Hurlburt, the well known grocer at 1,074 Chapel street, and the demand for it is very large.
 One of the interesting sights yester- day afternoon was the visit of the or phans of St. Francis Orphan asylum, who paraded in a body about the show, taking in the sights with unalloyed pleasure. In charge of them were two of the sisters of the asylum, and a | clergyman was also piloting them about. At every booth where samples of eatables were given out the booth tenders dealt most generously with the orphans
 This evening after the show closes for the evening and the visitors are gone all the exhibitors and employees of the |'various booths and all connected with the big food exhibit will hold a fellow ship meeting, as was done at the pre- vious food show. A select and varied programme has been arranged by MT. George K. Jewell, with the New Haven Baking company's exhibit, which is a sure guarantee that a jolly good time is ill store for all those who have la bored so hard and willingly to please and interest the thousands of people who have visited the big food show at the armory, which closes Saturday eve ming.
 Atwater's full orchestra will furnish the music. Some of the very best tal- ent in the city has been secured includ- ing the Apt quartette. Frank Miller, character recitationist; Master Charles Smith, soprano soloist.
