Vcstnwlny Yesterday morning was a badilny for the fair It broke with aoanupv of heavy clouds over llio city , which , about 10 o'clock , broke into lienvy rain In the vicinity of thu fairgrounds. It looked as 1C thu day would close in rain niul everybody would bo deterred from com- Intr to town. Sherman avenue was coated with mud. Only a few vehicles moved over Its surface and those made the best of. the opportunity to escape from the down pour. Among the wagons won ) several of tlio open vans used : IM transfers bv the horse car com pany. They contained but n fraction of their customary loads and among these were several ladies. Some of the pleasure-seeking individuals owned umbrellas , but most of them did not. As a consequence , when the carry-alls rolled into the grounds , many of the unfoiliinutu occupants alighted like be- dragnlod hens. Tlio ground , of course , was soft , though the walks enabled people to move about with a considerable degree of comfort. The police stood under the eaves of thudiipplug offices or took shelter In the open booths , while many of the exhibitors commiserated one another and dejectedly felt like shutting up .simp. During the morning not 1110:0 than ! ! 00 people entered the grounds , and the ma jority of the.su were exhibitors and attend ants. AUer-ii down-pour of about an hour the ralu ceased , but- the sky remained over cast. The programme outlined tor the morn ing's amiisument was dlspBnsod with , 'though ' many of the judges ploughed their way through tlio mud to perform the duty as signed them , us appears above in tins issue. Later the rain commenced to fall again , and at 12 o'clock there was little hope that the afternoon would In any manner encourage a visitation of the people. riivu.is , yesterday morning , was imt around the soft track by licrownerMr. Wngner. She was then luil to her box-stall In the stable , where she was immediately blanketed and rubbed until her sides slionn like polished mahogany. This noble adimal is in excellent spirits , though her bones.espccially in the Inps , seem a little more prominent than when she was here before. Her bearing , however , is still as noble , and there Is still thn same good nu- turcd Mash and intelligence that then beamed in her eye. Her competitor , Harry \\MIkes , occupied an adjoining stall , but was locked up , and the key ot thy place was In the pocket of the owner , Fiank Van Ness , who had gone to town. AW.VUDS.

TinI'lxpositlon. . The rain of yesterday nlternoon had a bcnsiblo effect njon ) the attendance of city lieoplo at the exposition , though It in no wise militated against those from abroad who had come to pay a visit to Its halls. Of the latter there was ijultu a number who had started from their rur.il homes before thu rain had began to fall , and who thought that they might bo able to enjoy the local attrac tions without the interference of elemental agencies. .Many of these , although intend ing to visit botli the exposition and fair , were prevented by the inclement weather from going beyond the latter , and this tliev enjoyed fn a manner which occasioned pleasure to every attache of the. Institution. Among the number were several from Lin coln , who had come as sceptics but who went away convinced of thu fact that in every do- paitment , the show was equal to aiivtllinir that had over been seen between Chicago and San Francisco. With regard to the local visitors , it must be said that their appreciation of the all air was most pronounced. They wandered through the mazy walks , at times bent , upon Inspection of the goods displayed , at others lightly diseasing tiie pleasant questions which biicli scenes inspire. When tireii of both their walk and tall ; , convenient suttees enabled them to indulge in delightful t tt-a-tctos ! , which the beautiful music of the Musical Union orchestra inado all thu moro enjoyable.

A few nights ago the latter introduced a monstrous ougliio bell , with which It pro posed to announce the hour of closing. Last night the sounds of this metallic annunciator could not be heard. Instead , there was thu puny tones of several adolescent Bongs.whlcli sounded as if a small boy were playing with thu cause of their dlstutbancc. The man agement should Insist upon sounding the big belt mentioned , and scu that it Is respected without unnecessary delay. To-day pleasant weather has been vouch safed , and a largo number of strangers Irom abroad will doubtless bo in attendance. COX CIIKMIOAT. COMPAKV. Perhaps no itxhlblt in the building at tracted more attention than that of thu "Sil ver ( Jift baking powder" by the Cox Chemi cal company. Inside a square , over which hung a glittering UiViirsltyoC elegant silver spoons , knives , napkin rings , etc. , which niu given out as presents , were piled cans of tlio SllverUlltbaklng powder. A woman wasen- Kaged In making hut biscuits and dealing them out to thu multitude which praised around. Their delicious llavor well demonstrated the superior character of thu baking powder. It Is chemically pure , while at the same time It is possessed of the requisite strength. As an Inducement to the purchaser a "silver gift" Is given away with each can , The local olllce of thu Cox Chemical company is at 1022 Capitol avenue , M , A. nisnr.ow & co , The display of M. A. Dlsbrow & Co. at tracted general ntlmitlon. It consisted ot a splendid exhibit of carved oaken and cherry mantel pieces , with mirrors , finished off , as to carving and polish , In tin ) most elegant innnuw. An assortment of sashes , doors mid moulding completed thu exhibit. Alto gether the iii-inlay was a highly credltabln one to Messrs. Dlnlaow & Co. , whoso reputa tion for lirat-class work needs no extended comment. U. II , M.UIHOl'F A CO. 11,11. Marholf it Co. makea line display of trunks , satchels , hand bags , etc. One of the most striking things to bo seen was a handsome trunk , rawhide bound , In such a manner as to subserve thu ends of utility , durability , and beauty , This trunk it re quired thu services ot one man for tour days to manufacture. Another beautiful featuio was an alligator hide trunk costing Si00 , while still another was n solid solo leather trunk. The latter was of extra largo size , with nil manner of compartments to delight the traveler's heart. This trunk Is built to stand thu wear and tear of ages , and is cheap at tl.e price named. An elegant line of alligator I ana In Mr. Marhotl's collection struck the fancy of the ladles particularly , OUSTAV AM > UKIi.V. ( iiistav Amlreen & Co. , the well known safe linn , occupied a prominent place in the annex with a line line of safes. They com prised burglar proof safes , tlmo lock safes , patent "combination" safes , safes ot every size and description. It had been Mr , An- drcon's Intention to exhibit a largo 10,000 pound Hufo which 1m Is constructing for the Union National bank. But It was impos sible to compluto It In time. It Is much to bo regretted that this tUoco of work could not tin viewed by the public in connection with Mr. Amheeu's already line display. This lirm is commanding a largo amount of pat ronage , both local and outside. Among other largo lirms which they already have contracts is one for KO. ) aafclv deposit boxes for the Omaha National bank , which are to cost § : t.K)0. ( ) A large nttmbi'r of other con tracts are now under way , attesting well the deserved popularity of the Audreeii works. C. S. I1AYMOM . The ontrrnrNn ot C. ri. Kaymoiul. thu jv j - cler cropped out fj-oin every nook and corner of his magnliici-nt dlsnlay , which was In a glnssr.aso built especially for the occasion. Diamonds , rubies , sapphires and other pre cious stones in bmvlldc'rlim profusion greeted the eye on every side. Tliu display of juw- elry of every description , gold ami silver trinkets elaborately wionght and linely lin- islied , watches , chains , etc. , etc. , was u daz zling one. The central liguro in the ca n was a largo wax doll , llor complacent features seemed to beam forth from under a profusion of sparkling diamonds and other Jewels which clustcicd In her golden locks. ' 1 hn feature ot lier adornment , however , was a large beetle ( alive ) with a gold mounted harness , which well ulirh covered Ids form. A chain linked to Ill's ' harness and connected with the dress of the vonnir lady , kept Mr. Beetle securely tethered. His bcetleslilp is all day long the center of an admiring group who eagerly w.itcli his every movement. This magnificent display is but an Index a mere surface indication of what is to bo lound iu the store of C. S. itayinund. Coming here two years ago and entering a Held already well taken up. hu has , by ob serving the principles of square dealing and low prices , built up a trade which Is lirst class , and , at the same time , is ever growing. 1 Mr. Uaymond keeps nothing but the best of goods , and sells them at prices which are thu very lowest. He alms too , to keep abreast of the times , and in his collection are to be found all the latest novelties in the line of jewelry , silverware , etc. , etc. TIIK MAIMON KNTHKl'ltlSl : TO. In the aiinnx , one of the mont notable dis plays was that of the Marian Enterprise Co. , sole agents for the Arnold Cooker and Colfeu Pot. A lady is busily engaged all day long in making colleo tor the many who press around to witness the operations of the cooker. The delicious llavor of thu beverage will attest thu ieil'ect manner in which the cooker works. The coffee is not boiled as in the ordinary pots , but is steamed to the requisite he.xt , without allowing any of the aroma or strength to boil itself away. The cooker is a complete stove itself , capa ble of cooking a meal for a family of eight or ton persons. Its advantages are. manifold. It is compact , occupying but a tithe of the' space of the ordinary kitchen cook stove , it is economical , requiring but a very small ex pense tor fuel. It Is easily operated , being so simple that a child can handle it without any difficulty whatever. It cooks the food rapidly and thoroughly ) and preserves all those essential llavnrs in the various kinds of food , which are lost in the old and biuftrling methods of cookery. In this respect it closely approaches French cookery , which is thu standard of art of thu cuisine. When It Is aitdoil to all these advantages that the Arnold Cooker is very cheap , one can rcadilvseo how it has sprung so quickly Into nopular favor. The cooker comes in different sizes , at prices ranging from 81.75 up. The housewife who Is tired of the old and slow methods of cook ing , is hereby Invited to Inspect the workings of this contrivance In thu exposition build- Ing. It she Is not convinced of its superior practical advantages , she must bo a skeptic indeed. The Marlon Enterprise Co. . Is solo agent for the Arnold Cooker. H s olllco is at 502 and 501 South Eighteenth street. ir. n. nunso.v. Near the south main entrance to the expo sition building Is the display of 11. I ! . Hud son , Omaha's prominent hatter and men's furnisher. The display is an elegant and comprehensive one , and Is arranged in a thorou'-'hly tasty manner. Hats of every slzu and style , neckties , collars , cuffs , shirts , un derwear , hosiery In fact , every article essen tial to a gentleman's toilet , ura comprised in this display. Mr. Hudson keeps nothing but the finest goods , as any one who will take thu pains to closely examine his exhibit can easily sen. lie has absolutely built up a largo biihlncss , on the principles of good goods at low prices. Every gentleman visitor In the city during fair week slioulJ takn especial muis to call nt this establishment on Doug las street near Thirteenth , and inspect the varied stock. . * co. The fruit display of Branch & Co. , the well known commission men is placed next to main entrance on the south. It Is a magni ficent display , calculated ( o make thn mouth o every spectator water freely. Luscious and splendid specimens of apples , punches , pears , grapes , and other fruits , besides , ban- aims , pineapples and thu dllTerent foreign varieties of fruits , are ranged side by shlo. The wholn presents a bewildering massot color which the brush of the most oxueri- ouced painter could not reproduce in Us ox- qulslto harmony. The exhibit Is the onlyono of itH kind in the building and rcllects great credit unon the energy and Ingenuity ot Messrs. Branch & Co. This linn is one of the most popular com mission lirms In the city , and handles a very largo line of lorelun and dome.itlc fruits. Tholr refutation lor honest doalliv ; has been ho main foundation of their success. A men AXD iiAiu ; I\IIIIHT. ; One of the most attractive am ) really choice features ot the exposition Is that of Messrs , H. Hardy & Co. . of the yJo More , 130'J Far- nain street. This elegant dUpl'iy discloses a great variety of articles such as are found in stores llko that of the Messrs. Hardy & C'o. together with novelties never before shown In this city , and which , Indeed , are new to any market , Those goods represent the very large stock of useful and beautllul things which this enterprising lirm Is ottering at its Farnam street More , which no onu viblt- Ing Omaha should fail to see. Wo can say without qualification that it Is In all respects the most complete and varied stock In this line ever brought hero , and It Is quite im possible that any taste , deslro , or ilnanclal condition can fail to be bulled. This estab lishment Is especially the emporium for novelties In fancy goods , toys of every grade , the best makes of dolls , and bric-a- brac In great variety. A leading feature Is also made of house furnishing goods. Omaha has no more enterprising or public spirited merchants lhan Messrs. 11.

SKO'Y MANNING'S CONDITION , His iJetircment From the Cabinet a Certainty. WASHINGTON. Sept. a. ( Special Telegram to the Bui : . ] Chief Clerk Yonmans. ot the tieasnry department is back with the freshest news of Manning's condition. He saw thu sccrelary at Watch llillrslttlng In a chair. "Talking with the secretary , " said Youmuns , "no ono would imagine he had any trouble , for his color is uood and there is no percept ible decrease in the fullness of his face.bnt it is when he attempts to walk that the extent of his malady is manifested , and my opinion is that the secretary will not reconsider his determination to retiiu from thu treasury do parliiii'iitpninalicntly by Out. 1. Hislrienils and his family are averse to his picking up the reigns ot government again , as it will only increase his feebleness and I do not think his physicians will allow it cither. " This confirms the View held all nloni : by those who have been familiar with Manning's condition and known strenuous objections of his family to hN going back to work. Assistant Secretary Fnirclilld would have as much to do us bu nas now.and Man ning would be only a fiuurehcad. His friends do not see the advantage to be gained for thu administration by such a course , and thisv be lieve the president , before his return to Washingtonwill have picked out a successor. The chances ( < ecm to bo In favor of acting Secretary Faircliild , unless a reorcani- zation of the whole cabinet should bo decided on. In that event a new man would bo found. Tlio Hrowcrs Blfot.

The report of the board of trustees reviews tlio piolilbltion question In Kansas and Iowa and attempts at legislation on thu sub ject elsewhere. The joint report of the vigi lance and publication committees states that during the pnst year thu publication commit tee , in conjunction with the vigil.uico com mittee , caused to bo picpaiod , pilnled and distributed , an aggregate of foity-llvo thou sand copies of-the'addresses and essays In tended to Influence public opinion favorably to browers' interests. The report adds : "During the jia.it year many applications for documents have been received from persons living in Georgia and Virginia. From our concspondents In these states wo learn that the success of llio piohi- bltion movement Is mainly due to a de.slre ; on thu part of the ruling party ( democratic ) to keep thu colored population within ceitaln moral bounds. It Is claimed that for the ex clusively wlilto population tint soutlivrn dem ocrats would not dream of missing nwh laws. A discussion of the question of the basis of personal and Industrial liberty is entrely Im possible. Such logic Is beyond our compre hension. To us it seems that the greater the depravity of the population , the mentor also the need of control. Prohibition and local option do away with all control , leaving liquor practically ns free as It would be in the absence of any laws on the subject , but are far more dangerous to society on account of the Immorality Inseparably connected with the constant recurrence of fawbreaklng. " Thi > most Interesting icport ot the advisory committee , which was lead by its seciutary. related to the alleged adulteration of malt liquors.

BRAVES FIGHTING ONE ANOTHER Tlio Capture of ( Ji-rnnhno Practically 1-jinln Iniluui Hostilities In tlio South Captives to beHeld Held For Trial. Indians on the WASHINGTON , Sept. S. [ Special Telegram to the BKI.J : Nothing Is known at llio war department or Indian bureau of the alleged outbreak of trouble between the Indi ins on thu Great Blaekfeet reservation , In southern Montana , of which rumors and specific ac counts have reached the western press. This eservation has the greatest number oL' frng- nents of tribes of any reservation in the United States. It comprises an area of * ! , - s : > 0 .square miles , or nearly as huvi ; as thu stale of Ohio , anil cont-iins 21iril,2UJ acies. Upon It are three agencies tlio Blaekfeet , at which are gathered lemains of the Blaekfeet blood , and Sieiran tiibes ; Fort Pock uuenuy , the rendezvous of the Assinabolne , Brulo , Panli'u , Leon , Uiieonipah- gro and Yankton Sioux , and Fort Bclknap agency , ationl which are gath ered Gros Venire , Assinaboinu and a few river Crows. Mono ot these Indians liavu any gr'eat love for each other , and If the bands from the dlircreiit agencies mil across one another somebody generally loses a sc'ilp. Information has been iccoivud heio from time to time of brawls and drunken lights , but none as serious as the hist reported outbreak. It is feared that these Indians , especially the Blaekfeet ami Gros Venire , who are especially aggressive , are preparing to go upon the war-path against their neigh bors and tliu few whites In Northern Montana this fall. The "war" could not bo very formidable , as there are not over seven thousand Indians of all tribes on thu reser vation , but it could bo made very unpleasant ( around the agencies and for Isolated whiles ] until tin ) military forces could bu gotten into motion. Assistant Adjutant General Kelton said ; ycsteiday : "U'o have three irglmcnts of I infantry and two of cavalry about the reser-t vatlon , and I ihink If any outbreak were tor occur it could bo handled without any great difficulty. " THE SlTl'ATIOX IN Altl/O.VA. It is believed at the war department that tlio captmo of Geronlmo has practically put un end 10 Indian hostilities in that country. An army officer talking with n reporter to-day said that It depended upon tliu conduct of tliu whites and how thu Indians ate treated by tlio agents on the agencies whether thuro would bu any fiiither trouble. If the Indians wuii ) treated properly they would piohahly all remain ijniet. Thu captunxif Geronimocleats Arizona of hostiles. The Indians most likely to glvu trouble now aio the Unconi | > aigriSlii ! ! the mountains of Colorado , and those in the wilds ot Washington territory. Tneso are not particularly savage , but they are In regions where it Is easy for them to hfdu away , and they are liable to plunder. Ono trouble , hu suv.s , Is that thu whiles are too aggressive. They try to take advantage of the Indians and to bully them. No dispatches weru received Irom General .Miles llils morn ing and nothing can yet bu learned as to what will probably bo done with Omnium and his band now that they uu < captured. FitANcisro. Sept.
