; AIe from the celebration of Mnncsota

: occasion ot conahlersiblo note , the exposition
program for tile week is barren of daylight
. teaturcs. It is welt known that ( lie middle
, . of July is unavoidably a dull season aiid the
, maxiagement has rcfraincd from attempting
to IUl1 oil any big features at this time.
There will be special musical features on
'Vtirsday and Thursday evenings and these
will be of stifllcient interest to merit a heavy
local patronage. Meantime the same high
class of music wilt he rendered at the regil-
-
mr afternoon and evening concerts anti there
will be ample inducement for the people
. . to come out , even though no sensational at-
: r , traettons are scheduled.
The total attendance Saturday was 20,227.
I \'hile this ( Inca not compare with the Fourth
q
' of July crowd , it is regarded as fully satisfactory -
. . factory in view of the short notice at which
. - 4 the event was arranged and the admitted
- dimenity of getting out a ttg crowd at thts
season. The otllcers nnI soidIer of the Third
regiment have expressed to the exposition
management their unbounded gratification
t. the royal niaiiner In which they were en-
tertalneti , and although there wlii be many
, ' bigger crowds before the exposition Closes ,
it h ; believed that no feature of the show
vIjl be remenibered with more satisfaction
by all concerned.
