efnoon, and, accompanied by staff of
teachers, made a very orderly and in
teTested inspection of each display.
MIS-. hahlman, as chairman, has been
settlng a handsome exhibition of flow
elS INTO place, and the beauty Of the
hall of fine arts has been aJdad 70 con-
sloerably by dignifed array of chry-
sshthemums ftanked by beautiful palms
or many varieties.
MRS. -. A. MOnfOrt took Mrs. ApseI
Oppenhe1m's place yesterday as hostess
on the upper floor. Miss Russell had
charge or the register, and Mrs. Childs
or the information bureau. Mrs. Polk
was IN the bookbinding and iIustrat-
ing room.
A display which attracts crowds of
admlrers is the china painting on the
upper floor. The sisters Of St. Aga
mas and st. Joseph's conYents each
nave a large glass case filled with
beautiful vases, bowls and plates of
MANY uses. One particularly taking
piece is a large jardiniere done in rich
browns and reds and having a trumpet
vine design melting into the soft cloudy
background. 1t is after a water color
study by Paul de Longpre AS usual.
there are great many rose desiAns.
and in each one is found the same
DAINTY work and artistic effect which
characterizes the entire exhibit, The
exhibit from st. Joseph's is equally
good. tall, graceful vase is done In
peoples, and a dainty cup and saucer
have hawthorne design laid on them.
A large tray decorated with grapes Is
one or the prettieSt pieces. One notice
able thing about this tray Is that, I'M
ike nearly all the trays similarly dec
GRATED, which have designs Of gold
traced over the grapes, while on this
tray the only gold used is on the edge.
one or the most unusual exhibits and
likewise one Of the most attractive ia
chop set by Mrs. J. B. Johnston. It
is what Is known as metal work and
looks like a very frail spiral design I'm
gold over highly polished bronze The
design Is original. Mrs. Johnston also
has very handsome melon dish which
shows the same freedom from cOnven-
tlOnality In the execution. Mrs Allen
K. Pruden's work is nearly all of her
own designing. She has two large trays
among other things that are both good
work. One is in blackberries, and the
other in violets. Both are original One
Of the prettiest things in Mrs New
tens display is large punch bowl,
which shades from a deep red at the
base to delicate pink at the rim. On
this is a design of white grapes and
foliage, the greeny whiteness Of the
fruit and the soft green Of the leaves
fo1ming a beautiful harmony with the
soft pink. The inside is likewise shad-
ed, and the design repeated here Miss
Jennings has an attractive display. One
plate Is particularly beautiful. 1t is
done in red and gold and has dainty
pink. roses scattered round the edge.
This daintiness is noticed in all of
Miss Jennings work. Another attrac-
tive piece is a vase in green and brown.
Mrs. Silas B. Walsh has a Delft plate
in her exhibit which Is In itself worth
great attention. 1t is q study Of a
quaint old fisherman lighting his pipe.
Beside this is a beautiful tankard in
dull greens and yellows. Mrs. Henry
Nickow has an artistic display. In it
is a powder box with a Dresden de-
sign on the cover and upper part of
the box, the base being don9in a pc
culiar but beautiful shade Of bYue A
tall, graceful vase is done in the same
blue, with design of vine and flowers
brought out in deeper blue, green and
gold. This Is called a cornet vase. a
plate done in narcissus is likewise we'll
done. Mrs. E. F. Woods has, among
other things, a dainty little tea set with
a forget-me-not design. A large salad
bowl is a well done attraction.
Mrs. H. E. Hannen's exhibit is mostly
jugs and pitchers. A claret Jug tia
pitcher and coffee pot being prominent.
She has a large jardiniere done In
roses which is handsome Miss Nellie
Stevenson has one of the best exhibits
That she is not only an artist of the
ceramic, but likewise has talent In
other directions, is shown by a water
color sketch Of a fancy head, ard bon
bon dish. Though small, this little
dish is irresistible. 1t is in green ana
brown, and on the cover is the head
OF a dusky weeping baby. His mouth
is in a pitiful quicker and on his cheek
is pearly tear. A Dresden tile Is done
with the same firm touch and artistic
finish Miss Stevenson's flower work Is
all bold and free, while the bOn-bon
dish gives the unique side of her art
Mrs W. S. Bowen has a large exhibit
which has been mentioned before.
Miss Clara A. Thompson, who will
be remembered by those who visited

decorated with green and pink bunt-
ing. Candy in boxes and baskets at
tracts the eye and taste.
AS the people throng through Mar
ket hall day after day and night after
night few of them realize what an
amount of work, both mental and
physical, the whole thing represents.
The Manufacturers association has
put forth every effort to make the eX-
hibition a success and a help to the
business men of the city. Money has
been freely expended and each member
has felt himself responsible for the
success of the effort and has shoulder
ed it splendidly. One visit to the hall
that the association has worked hard

his goods to the best advantage. Q.
J. Wher1arhs has been one Of the most
faithful workers in the building and
as secretary Of the association has
been obliged to assume much response
bility.
F. E. Perkins has also been one on
whom the work has not fallen lightly,
and more genial man could not be
found.
The hail has had ample police pro-
lection all the week. Aside from sew
erai special detectives, the local de-
partment has had five or six officers
assigned to the building each day.
