Office for the show company. The room
adjoining it is reserved as a writing room,
tables being prepared and everything fur
nished for the convenience of those who
may need to use the place. Next to the
writing room will be the gentlemen's
smoking room, and the room adjoining this,
in the extreme scythwest end of the hall,
will be the ladies' room. At the east end
OF the hall the rooms will be used as store
rooms for the exhibitors. where material
can be kept to be drawn upon to ill any
vacancies that might occur in the exhibits
through sales, etc.
Distribution of Souvenirs.
The souvenirs will be an important feat
ure Many useful and unique things will
be distributed to the general public. Ad-
vertisements in all shapes and designs will
be given with a lavish hand. Catalogues
and descriptive circulars will be on hand in
abundance, and numerous other little
souvenirs. The fad for collecting cata-
logues will undoubtedly spring up with
the opening of the show and continue as
long as 1t lasts. There seems to be
particular desire on the part OF many peo-
pie to make such collections, partly for
souvenirs and partly to read in the hopes
OF securing knowledge of bicycles.
The music for the occasion will be fur
nished by the National Guard Band. The
band numbers twenty-five pieces, and with
good leader will be in attendance during
the week and render music of all kinds,
martial and sentimental. The band has
secured an excellent reputation, and cou-
pied with its service at Santiago, in the
Cuban campaign. is of especial interest
The exhibition list will show that while
perhaps majority are local dealers, a
great many are outside firms with new
lines of goods, that in some instances have
never been introduced in this city. In ad-
dition to bicycles. the exhibit of bicycle
sundries will be quite large. There will
be mutascopes and other moving picture
machines. cash registers, electric lights of
various descriptions. bicycle shoes, sport
ing goods. and a number of other things,
all of which tend to make the affair the
more interesting to the general public.
