The pure foodoand Industrial EXPOSE
tion In Market hall attracted a larger
| crowd yesterday than had been there
any day since the opening. The people
or the city are realizing that they must
visit the exposition soon or miss see
Ing 1t, and they began yesterday morn
| Ing to flock to the hall. The favorable
weather assisted the management In
drawing a crowd, and during the hours
between II and o'clock the hall was
thronged with Interested sightseers.
During the afternoon Miss Nellie A.
Hopes Junior symphony orchestra rem
dered a concert in the hall, which was
enjoyed by everybody. The programme
was as follows:
March."El CAPTAIN" 49,: ;Sousa
Carter
March-"Black America .............. .Zickel
On the Banks of the Wabash Far
Two-Step-'.T Girl Of 'ss';. .zckel
eams from Sa sonsa
was SO large that the exhibitors found
great difficulty in handling the people.
They streamed through the corridors,
and 1t was at times difficult for one to
make his way through the crowds. The
visitors stopped before every exhibit
and watched the various methods Of
manufacturing illustrated by the eX-
h1bitors In their booths.
The Guitar and Mandolin orchestra
played number of musical selections,
OF which the following was the pro-
gramme:
Cuban March Armstrong

The visiting retail grocers from all
sections of the state swelled the even
ing crowd. The grocers have been i'm
pressed with the exposition, and they
will deal more generally than formerly
In st. Paul food products. These are
the men the Manufacturers associa
ton desire most to reach, and the
| members feel that in holding the ex-
position at this time they have accom-
plished five times as much good as
would have been done had the EXPOSE
ton been postponed several weeks, as
was at nrSt proposed.
The ladies are taking keen interest
in Mrs Armstrong; cooking demon
strations, and she had large audi
ences yesterday, both in the morning
and afternoon. Besides giving very
clear directions for the different dishes
comprising her menu, Mrs. Armstrong
makes numerous useful culinary sug-
gestions and answers all questions put
to her in regard to her demonstrat ions
very fully.
Yesterday morning she showed the
best method Of preparing tomato soufle,
breakfast bacon, new English mullins
and sunshine cake with whipped
cream. -s..
Those present in the afternoon were
initiated into the mysteries Of creamed
lobster in cases, chocolate nut cake and
Neapolitan mousse.
The competitive dinners by local
cooks were given yesterday afternoon.
| at o'clock, in room 2 up stairs. The
competitors were Mrs. T. B. Wheelock,s
table No. 1, and Mrs. Lizzie Bellemy,
table No. 2. Each dinner was prepar-
ed for four people and the cost was
not to exceed so cents. Mrs Wheel
ock's dinner yesterday cost exactly so
! cents, but Mrs. Bellamy's amounted to
exactly thirty-fve cents.
The two tables on which the dinners
were set were daintily decorated with
cut flowers and looked very tempting.
Before the judges sat down to test
the viands, Mrs. Maurice Auerbach,
vice president Of the ladies' auxiliary,
made little speech, stating that the
food had been especially prepared with
a view to Its muscle-making qualities,
and. if the Judges felt the absence Of
potatoes, sugar, beets, etc, they were
to remember that vegetables were fat
producers and not muscle makers.

lows:
Soup.
Croutons
Lamb Sou1e. Asparagus.
Whole Wheat Gems.
Celery Salad. Toasted Waters.
