MUSICAL FEATURES
TO Be PROMINENT
CInCinnatI'S Big Exposition Will
Cater TO the Masses.

Cincinnati, O.-(Special.) .)-LoveFs
of music, whether it be of the kind
that has a leaning toward the classic
or whether it be of the popular ma
ture that is whistled on the streets
or played on the street piano, will
have the qualification of knowing
that their appetites in this line will
be gloriously satisfied at the Ohio
Valley Exposition, which will be held
in Cincinnati from Aug. 20 to Sept.
"a. In the matter of romantic music,
which will appeal to the lover of ar
tistic harmony as well as to the
seeker for melodies that strike favor
ably the untutored ear, the popular
romantic opera "Paoletta," which will
be given in connection with the Ex-
position, will offer all that can be de-
sired, the score Of this composition
being unusually beautiful and not too
heavy to miss the masses. Solos,
duets, sextets and chorus numbers
of rare beauty are part of the music
of the piece, and as these will be in
the hands Of the leading American
artists, music lovers of all classes
will find rare treat in the opera
The orchestral features of the pro-
duction also will be a prominent por-
tion Of the opera, the leading musi-
clans of Cincinnati and vicinity hav-
ing been engaged to interpret the
instrumental portion Of the score. In
the amusement section proper there
will be two or more band stands To-
Gated in the center of a rest section,
where visitors may seek recreation
after a tour Of the buildings and be
regaled with the latest selections in
the popular as well as the classic
field. The principal restaurant of the
Exposition will have among its spe-
cial attractions a European concert
band, the leader Of which is said to
outdo Sousa, Creatore or any Of the
other famous leaders in the matter
of gymnastics.

The inability of the Kids to land
safe bingle or even hit the ball when
the visiting twirler, Farrell, had given
pass or two to help them along, lost
close and exciting contest to the Lima
Metropolitans at Mercelina Park last
Sunday afternoon.
1t was like a strike out league con-
test with both clubs using their stored
up energy at mighty swaps at the heavy
atmosphere. Almost every member of
the local organization from the veteaan
bingler, Grandpa Weber, unto the Kid
Bethel, went at the big benders of the
Lima man like they were attempting
to beat the s. o. record of those o. NJ.
G.. Red Legs of the Queen City. While
Young Fredericks had every one of the
visisors also swatting the elements,
they were now and then bingling to
safe ground. Their hits, however, were
well scattered with the exception of the
second inning, when three clean ones
in succession counted for two runs,
winning the game. Their third run
was gift by Myers and Fredencks.
The only run the Kids secured was
a gift and came almost at the wind up
of the exhibition, but il would have
been sufficient to tie the score had the
measley little crowd of stand-pat
rooters been beyond the ropes.
Bethel opened the seventh by rolling
out to short. Burris was then sent in
to bat for Spriggs and he drew pass.
Farrell hit Fredericks in the ribs.
Pumphrey followed with hot one down
the third base line and Conley fumbled,
He recovered the ball and threw to
first thinking to catch Pumphrey and
Burris scored. A relay of the ball to
catch Fredericks at third failed, the
ball going into the crowd. Ifthe crowd
had been back of the ropes Fredericks
could have scored, but the ball was re-
covered quickly and put back in play.

CAN'T HOLD TWO
JOBS At ONE TIME
Assistant Attorney General Says
Man Can't Be Trustee and
Board Member, Too.

In an opinion to Prosecutor Harry
p. Black, of TifIin, Assistant Attorney
General Miller held that one man could
not hold the position oftownship trustee
and at the same time be a member of
the school board in that township.
He has also held in another opinion
that the school board had no right to go
ahead with bond issue when an election
was held, and the result was tie.
In the case in question the first cleo
ton resulted in a tie, and two subsequent
elections were held resulting in defeat
ing the bond issue. At the third cleo
tion, however, one man was challenged
and confessed that he had voted against
the bond issue at both previous cleo
tions, but that he was not qualified
voter
The attorney general held that as no
question was raised after the first cleo
tiOn the board could not go back of the
returns

In It's History-Amuse-
ments Galore.

they surpuss those of any previous ex-
position. Famous stables, herds and
llocks of tlfe Union will compete for
the liberal premiums offered. Every

tho breeds will rage from the opening
day until the closing date.
The wOmrn's art, farm products and
horticultural departments have more
entries than ever before. The mach

added to the buildings and grounds
since the close of the last Exposition.
Each of the mammoth exhibit build
ings has been freshly painted and In

and shady driveways have been con-
structed. Unslghtly structures have
been razed, and in their stead will
greet the eye exquisite Towering en-

now vertiable scenic paradise, un-
equalled by any pleasure resort in the
State.
No effort has been spared to make
the 1910 Exposition a grand success.

plcting the progress of the people, will
be installed. Every walk of life will
be represented in the thousand or more

est attendance that has ever entered
the gates of the Ohio State Fair.
