EXPOSITION NOTES.
Management Announces a Series of
 Prize Cooking Contests.

Management Announces a Series of
 Prize Cooking Contests.
 The managers of the food and indus trial exposition to be held from October 12 to October 21 are grdually announc- ing the features planned.
 One that will interest to the largest extent the housewives and good cooks of this city and vicinity will be the prizes to be offered for cooking. Cooks will be given every opportunity to prove their merit. They can do their work at home in their own kitchen, and with their own utensils. Few rules will govern the contest, and the competitors will be given the widest latitude in the preparation of their exhibits. Of course, professional cooks are to be barred. The only necessary quali- fication for competitions is that they are not to be professional bakers. One of the days is to be set aside for the girls of the cooking classes in Board man High school, and the article at which they are to try their skill will be announced shortly.
 Another feature just announced is that the management has decided to engage the New York Ladies orches- tra. This celebrated organization will give matinee and evening concerts that are sure to prove one of the great at fractions of the show.
 It has been estimated by the manag- CTS of the exposition that fully S5,0OO worth of souvenirs and samples will be distributed. The firms exhibiting are liberal demonstrators, and expect to put in the hands of everyone visiting the exposition samples of their goods.
 The Sulpho-Napthol company of Bos- ton has been engaged to attend to the saitary requirements of the show, and will use its disinfectant to keep the atmosphere of the armory pure and clean.
 The manufacturers of the Cliquot club brand of table beverages have taken a large space. Other exhibitors to sign last week were Armour & Co.,. and the Veil Novelty company of this city. The latter concern will make an elaborate display of photograph but tons and souvenir postal cards. .",
