It. bad been originally intended to have a lug meeting with brass banti accompaniment and other Incidentals , lint time Texas people very sensibly concluded to lmostpone their big denmonstration until after harvest. when there were more farm. ers on time groimntis , and last night's sessloit was a purely informal but. very Interesting affair.

Miss Asnmus was visiting iii Texas thea time ques. tion of representation at time exposition was first tinder discussion , ammd started the fund with a subscrIption of $20 , besides which she afterward raised $100. Tue medal was presented In recognition of her emmtimusiastic assistaimce by the people of Texas. Short speecimes were made by ex-Governor Sauntiers anti otimers , and time meeting ended with a short social session. During yesterday afternoon time Texas people heil a reception at their booth in the ignIctmltunumi building , where they were visited by a large number of friends and general visitors. Ex.Governor Saunders rendered - dered valuable assistance in this ftmnctiomm as vell , aimil a very signlflcaimt feature of tile afternoon was his nmeetiag with George F.
