Mr. IC.iMpar spoke in favor of the passage of the ordinance , saying that the city should bo very well pleased at the willingness of the telephone company to put Its wires under ground.

The ovcrwcauing desire of people to sco and be seen is nowhere men apparent than at the exposition , and In following out their natural inclinations in this direction another immense concourse thronged the Coliseum last evening. The crowd was of unusual dimensions , nnd the management was not disappointed In the anticipation of a greatly increased attendance on Saturday night. The sightseers streamed through the entrance until nearly 10 o'clock. The exits from the building \vcro also in constant use , and people were coming and going duriuK the entire evening. This constant change In the personnel of the crowd did not materially change Its size. It was just such a crowd us the average visitor liked to bo In largo enough to add spice and variety to the occasion , yet not dense enounh to render everybody uncomfortable hi a suffo cating crush. The great building was per fectly ventilated , and the thousands who were there Inspected the extensive exhibits without suffering any discomforts or incon veniences. Hundreds of the visitors had been there before , and the displays were therefore not new to them , but they found sufficient in ducement in the general attractiveness of the scene to warrant their continued attend ance. The music was inspiring nnd the con stantly changing panorama that was open to view was full ol Interest Everything was well calculated to please the eye , and in no instance did the visitor lose interest as ho slowly moved with the throng- around to the further side of the great structure nnd viewed Tom Murray's collection of relics be fore turning back toward the starting pointer or continuing on through the spaeious ave nues between the rows or exhibits. The Second Infantry band occupied the raised platform in the center and discoursed a number of their choicest selections under the direction of A. .A. "NVederneycr. Their grand concert -wo * ono of the features of the evening. Miss Alice Haymond , the greatest lady cornetist in the world , rendered two solos and graciously responded to enthusi astic encores. Miss Raymond will make her final appearance this evening. Tha exposition will bo open today. A grand sacred concert will be given both after noon and evening. This will be the closing week , the exposi tion ilosing next Sunday night. Ono of the leading attractions of the week will bo the great Melville , Europe's premier bcnsatlonal aerial gymnast , who will npueur In hi ? sensational nnd original act entitled "La Cbuto Do Cinl. " The apparatus used t > y Prof , Melville U his own Invention and patented , and h valued at over $ JMX ( ) . His JMjrformance Includes some wonderful trapeze and other aerial work , nnd Uo poo.s through seine wonderful and startling evolutions , Prof. Melville has Justretutned from | i tour of the world , and his success was so great that Ills engagement1) were frequently on- tended and ho was several months behind cngcicctncnts made for him two jears ago In the old world. The exposition management has gone to great exjieiiso in securing this feature , and it will undottycdly prove popu lar. lar..Messrs .Messrs Hoedcr ft Bell do not propose to allow such a successful season at the Coll- scum close with the exposition. They have made arrangements for tbe appearance of the great muilcal composer , Edward Strauss , and his celebrated orchestra on October 13 and 10. The Coliseum management received the following telegram last evening from Minne apolis : Over ro.WO attended the otpoMtlon tills week at intiilrtiplo | prices to hoar Strauss , tireatett musical suc'juss by faruvorliuard In the north- The Twin city papers speak of the concerts as follows : Minneapolis Tribune : When Strauss Is playing a ivals > o ho almost waltzes himself , With violin In hand he faces the audlcnco and perceptibly rises on bis toes In time to the music. In a strain that seems to need hl own Inspiring touch ho plays for a moment , then turns to direct with his bow. Under Its long sweep every retard or acceler ation In tltna is made with fine shade.

Minneapolis Journal : The numbers played were encored , euery onoj sometimes there was a double encore. As elsewhere in his American trip , the audlenco gave greatest applause to the encore , the "Illuo Danube , " which has inimortnlUcd the 11:111:0 : : of Strauss , but to every number there was the inosi hearty and spontiiuuuus applause. AMOXO TUB Mill HIM. A really beautiful exhibit is that of R. II. Blose , the druggist. It w brilliant with cut glass and fragrant with the odor of delicate perfume. Air. Bloso is n eonnolscur in tula line , and carries a line of perfumes and line toilet articles rarely equalled. This display is conspicuous for beauty of appearance and extreme neatness of ari-anpcincnt , which , by the way , is a characteristic of his well stocked pharmacy at the comerof Eighteenth and Nicholas streets. This exhibit , judging from the attention shown It , is one among the most popular at the Coliseum. A srcat deal of luterett is manifested by the ladies in the line wall paper exhibit ot J. S. Cbrtstenson. It is n common sense dis play well arranged and Interestliij. . The specimens of glazed English wash wall paper for kitchens and bath rooms attracted 11 good deal of attention. A wall paper that can bo washed is a thinp to bo appreciated. The beautiful ivory leather pressed i > a | > cr for dining rooms and parlors comes In for itsslmroof attention. Besides thospccialtiea is n line line of hand prints of all descriptions. The background Is beautified by n Imndsomo specimen of sltfrnvritiiiff. This Is the only dlsnluy of wall paper at the Coliseum and la un index of the enterprise of this gentleman who always leads ana never follows. COUXTV CO.HMISS10XKKS.
