Thousands saw the National Corn exposi-
ton Sunday afternoon and evening. The
days programs included only concerts by
the Mexican National band and singing by
the Nebraska University Glee clubs quar-
tet. The big crowds enjoyed the show in
quiet way and there was little of the hum
of the busy exposition that marks the
week days.
This morning the exposition starts out on
second and eventfu week. The program
of the day includes many interesting lee
lures and demonstrations. The Mexican
band will continue through the show with
two concert programs day. The con-
certs Sunday especially pleased the crowds.
demonstration of patriotism came when
the band struck up a medley Of American
airs at the Sunday afternoon concert.
Every person in the audience rose, almost
| as though by concerted signal. Cheers re-
sounded through the big hall. The dem
onstration lasted for several minutes.
The audience expressed more than usual
appreciation of the band when at the close
( of the program all remained seated and de-
manded another number The band re-
sponded with La Poloma and another dem
onstration followed. The band has proven
one Of the most attractive features Of the
exposition, giving an entertainment rather
restfu latter a long walk and much
seeing" among the endless exhibits.
Increased Attendance Expected.
! The management of the show looks for
a highly satisfactory attendance this week.
Weather conditions have been slightly
ameiorated and relief from the disagree
able cold Of last week kill probably induce
many more visitors to come to the show.
The corn show officials have investigated
the capacity Of the city for further accom-
odations for visitors and have found that
there are yet ample rooming house faoiI-
tiles within easy distance of the exposition
grounds.
The sales of prize winning entries to seed
buyers and corn culturists is in itself one
Of the important attractions OF the show.
| The sales will go on through the week un-
! I'll all the entries are sold. The sales of
last week netted about $500. This dis
tribution of high grade seed by the sale of
the prize winning entries is Instrumental
in accomplishing much for the general inn
provement of the crop of the territory in
terested in the corn exposition.
A most practically interesting number of
today's program is lecture on Cuts OF
Meat" by Miss Jessica Besack who is In
charge Of the domestic science department
of the show. This lecture, TO be given in
Biograph hall will be Illustrated with
stereopucan pictures and demonstrations
The object Of this lecture is TO give in
struetion In kitchen economy and meat
values in food preparation.
Wattles ON the Orient.
Gurdon w. Wattles, president OF the Ma
tional Corn exposition, viii lecture this
evening on The Philippines, China and
Korea" in a new ana altogether original
| light The story of these countries has
often been told from the lecture platform
by professional lecturers but Mr. wattles
saw them as a keen American business
man. The tone OF his talks Is far differ
ent from that OF the Lectures delivered from
material gathered by the hurried and super
/ fioial work OF most professional lecturers
His lectures are terse, and yet thorough
ana most interesting.
This lecture is TO be given in Music hall,
after an Introductory concert by the Mex
lean National band, and Il will DO followed
by the remaining numbers Of the concert
program.
Mr. Wattes toured the world little more
than a year ago He secured a collection
Of views which have never been seen else
where in this country, Many were taken
by Mr. Wattles himself many others by
native photographers, and other sketches
by artists, who made them especially for
Mr.. Wattles. While making this tour TO
