on 00(1 the attendance was comparatively

have been agreeably disappointed , however ,

In spite of the heat. Umat. fro-
vailed outside , it was delightfully
, cool in the shelter of the buildings and

this exposition offers more attracllons dur-
1 Ing time hot weather than have ever been
available at enterprises of the sort.
If a visitor is vet too ar.ibitiois
in the direction of sightseeing there are innumerable -
numerable shady retreats where the heat
is not in evilence and the refreshing breeze
; that sweeps up from the bluff imparts a tie-

at lintne. The peopln were not long In discovering -
