Iany of the owners of the carriages that 'wIll make up the gala procession have In- 'rited In their friends during the last. two days to look over the results of their handih work. The barns and tahlcs where the precious things are kept have been turned into Impromptu reception rooms , and more calls have been made there since Monday than In the drawing rooms of the first families , The verdict of all who have seen the carriages s that they are exquIsitely decorntd , and arranged In a graceful lIne curving In and out of the pretty spots on the I3Iuft tract will present a spectacle unequaled - equaled by any of Omaha's previous artistic successes. The double team of PresIdent ( lurdon W. Wntties will npproprlately lead the procession. IL will be followed by the tallyho of Mr. Al Patrick. The order In which the carriages will follow Is known to no one rave Mrs. TravIs , and wIll not be announced before the passing of the wheeled bowers. The nrrangement of the carriages has been made with the finest regard for color combInatIons , and the most. fetching results are anticipated. The carriages will not be crowded closely together , but a considerable - siderablo amount of space will be left between - tween them all. Great attention Is being paid to the decoratIon of the rear ends of the carrIages , as well as to their other _ parts , as the attention of the juIges must * i , necessarily be attracted to the back of the ) carrIage ongor than to any other part. The parade Is to start Promptly at 4 o'clock on Friday afternoon , but the carriages - riages are all to be on the exposition grounds at. 3 o'clock. Ono hour wIll be none too long for the necessiry arrange- meat of the yehicies and the taking of the photographs , All of the carriages are to be photographed , and these pictures will undoubtedly form beautiful souvenirs of the Ieto day. Should any of the participants In the parade be late In reaching the grounds they will be debarred from the photographic J groups. The pictures will have to be taken before the parade starts , as It will be too dark after the conclusion of the event to secure good photographs. WYOMINVS hISiILtt , ON ] ) ISI'LAY. Vcr Credlinbic Exhibit of Ihe Ore , . aitil Oilier l'rotiiict , or tIit ) hinCJ4. WyomIng has contributed a very credit- nIne mineral exhibit of which the most rtrlklng feature is the remarkable dIsplay of agatcs of every conceIvable sIze anJ formation. There are several hundred of these stones , most of which come from the ictnity of flartvlile , and they range from the size of a small pea. to bugo chunks of ' agate which would fill a halt bushel mcas- Lire. Some of them are highly polished and others are shown in the rough as they were taken from the deposits. This feature of ibe display also includes a cry pretty cot- ) ectlon of polished jasper from L.aramle county. While the exhibit does not show as 'arge a collection of ores as those of some of th.o other states it includes some very fine specimens of copper. iron , gold and tin. The coal deposits of the state are repre- senteti by a number of massive blocks of the product which form the corners of the booth and In a case of large glass tubes in the center of the dIsplay are samples of crude petrpleum , soda crystals. alum , salt , lImestone , clay and various other commercial tie- posits that arc included in the mineral resources of the state. There is a very good display of free gold quartz from Fremont county and samples of asbestos and volcanic ash are also shown. A huge cube of rocl i.ait in a glass case illustrates another natural - ural deposit that is found in Wyoming in . large quantities. In this exhibit are found some of the t flnest specimens of buIlding stone in the t buIlding. Those include exceptIonally at. tractive granites and sandstones In additioxi : to ft number of specimens of the Montana I marble.

I N 111 $ I'ItlM1'INi Ollt' lieu Mni ; : ' ; ; ; : 'hiIli' lii , % 'ire imk , After the .tlTnlr , , , reopie who have never seen the American I ndian in all of tile aboriginality are being a fforded that opportunity now , This op. p nrtunlty Is due to the fact that close to 4 10 Indiana are encamped on the north tract o f the exposition grounds , just west and a cross the street from the Transportation b uIldIng. There are more Indiana comIng a nd before the en4 of the week It Is probable that there will be fully 800 in attendance u pen the congress. While all of the IndIans on the exposition g rounds do not know Captain Mercer , they a ll look upon him as the man vho stands n ext to l'resldent. McKinley. and conse- q uently all of them come to him and pour t heir joys and troubles into his ears. The c aptain s a patient listener and never t urns a deaf ear to the appeals and en- t reaties , no matter how insignificant they may be. As a result of this ho has sud- t lenly bounded into popularity with the I ndians front the most remote parts of the c ountry. and those who have not heard of h im before. If an Indian wants a pall of water or pipeful of tobacco. Captain Mer- c er must be consulted before an effort is made to secure the same. While he is not a t all tImes nhio to the demands made upon h is time , ho is always pleasant and has s ome person ready to attend to the wants o f the red men who are about him. There is an Indian name for about every- t hing under the sun , and one peculiarity a bout this whole matter Is that if an Indian i toes not know the name of a person or t hing. lie immediately coins one. Outside o f the Omahas and Winnebagoes , few of the I ndians know Captain Mercer or lila name. For this reason lie has been gIven as many n ames as there are bands of Indians on the grounds. The latest name that. has been c oined and given to him comes from the J Icarlhla Apaches , who come from the northern portion of New Mexico. Those p eople call hIm Koski Jolik Tytloprt , which I t 1 said when translated into English means lie \Vho Feeds All , though no person s eems to know , as there are few who speak t he Apnehe language. Other names the captain has galore , and by the time that t ho last band of Indians arrive , he wIll have enough to fill a dictionary. The Indian camp is growing in size , anti the occupants of course contInue to be the star attraction on the grounds , At thIs time they are all busy , or at least the women are. The IndIan man is a firm believer in the rights of woman. At least he believes that the woman has a perfect a nd unilisputed right to work while he takes l Ife easy. The visitor will find the women putting up the tepee , carrying the water , tending the babies and tethering out the ponIes while the men vIsit back and forth or lie around in the sun or shade as suit them best. It has become apparent since the nrrivnl of the Indians that they are alt great via- , itors and are possessed of a great amount ' of sociability. W'hen a new party arrives upon the ground the members are at ones surrounded by the other Indians and as a rule what is supposed to be an interesting conversation is carried on , either by words I or signs. There are no introductions and : the meeting of the two strange Indians can be likened to the meetings of two I gangs of strange boys. They approach within a distance of twenty or thirty feet , , stare at. each other and begin to Jabber. Then there Is a nearer approach and the ! parties walk in circles. one around the other. This continues for a time , during which the Indians are constantly drawing ' closer together. Finally they get within handshaking distance , but there Is no shalc- I ng of hands. There is a little more talk- l ng , after which the always present pipe . is brought out and after being lighe'I i ; smoked , the party who doe , the lighting ' taking the first whiff , after which ht ; passes it. to the stranger. This completca t the Introduction and is said to ceaneni . friendship that is hard to break. Since yesterday Indinns have been comrn . ins in at a lively rate. One hundred and I forty Omahns and forty Winnebagoes , bringing 100 ponies , have arrived. The ; Santees , from Flandreau , S. D. , reached the grounds , bringing along a brass band , Two families of Crow Creek Sioux have reached the grounds. while .Jicarilla Apaches from New Mexico have put iit their tents. Those latter Indians. thouii I still clad in the blanket , are undoubtedly - the most highly civilized of any Indians I upon the grounds. They are farmers ant ] L are skilled in the manufacture of pottery . and the weaving of blankets. They live t high up In the mountains , where they raise , graIn , vegetables , sheep and cattle.

The lndus- trial and agriculturAl exhibits are as fine as the world has ever seen anti they are diver- silted. There is apparently Just enough of everything and not too much of anything. 1 knew all along that it was a great show , but I never had any clear conception of its magnitude until I stepped Inside the gate aliti gazed over tbe grand court , which is iuagnlflcent beyond nil description. It is a picture for an artist it is more beautiful than the World's fair. Inside the great buildings are the best things that can be gathered from the transmississlppl country. There is nothing shoddy and there seems to have been a studied effort among exhibitors to bring before the public only that which will please. Thu exposition lies builded well and the greatest care must have been exercised - cised In securIng the exhibits , " \'hile the territory that I represent is one of the newest subdivisions of the great country in which " .o live , I feel considerable satisfartion In realizing that It has an cx- hibit of which we ought not to feel ashamed , In making our exhibit we were batnltered by lack of funds , but notwithstanding this. our people responded liberally , The contributions - tions were not made with a desire to boom the country , but merely to enable us to ex- liibit our resources and show that we can grow and mature every grain , vegetable anti fruit that can be produced in any country on earth. Later on In the season wo wii add to our exhibit , thus keeping it up to date. At this time our corn is almost ripe and within a few days we will send on spec- imena that will astonish the people. We will exhibit fruit as fine as can be raised in any' of the states , either east or west , north or south , " The exhibIt from Oklahoma , shown in the Agricultural buIlding , and which Is under the care anti custody of Editor Goloba , is about complete and is greatly admired by those who visit the building. It occupies a prominent position in the building , being just to the left of the main entrance from the east. Along the front , high up against the ceiling , there are three pictures upon canvas. All three represent farm scenes , but the center pieces are the things that catch the eye , The central piece is the ter' ritorial seal , while to the right and left are sheaves of wheat and barley. respectively. The grain is fully five feet in length , with heads upon the straw measuring fully eight inches. Around the booth has been constructed a railing , the material used being the native wood found in the forests of the territory. There are pIne , cedar , fir , cypress , oak , hickory - ory , beach , birch , walnut antI belt a dozen other varieties , For corner pieces buntlies of cut corn have been brought into play , the stalks of which are from twelve to sixteen - teen feet high , all heavily eared. Inside of the booth are great pyramids of grain , in- eluding wheat , oats , barley , flax and corn. These are arranged in an artistic manner , protlucing a very pleasing effect , At the base ot each pyrimid there are jars of frutt , rich anti Juicy , flanked wIth new vegetables , such as potatoes , beets , sweet potatoes and cabbage. all of enormous size , sound anti solid , Cotton is a product in which the people of Oklahoma feel a great interest , and in making up their exhIbit they have featured it. Great bales of the material occupy prominent places in the booth , while stalks in bloom and others with bulbs ready to burst are scattered wherever they will attract - tract the most attention , The raw cotton has been used for decorating the booth and is wrought into wreaths , stars and garlands which hang from the ceiling and from the posts , pillars and corners. Governor Barnes says that he feels conil- dent that as soon as the harvest is over large numbers of the people from his tern- tory will vIsIt the exposition , It has been advertised well in tbiit section of the country - try , anti that there is a general desire to come here and attend the g'reatest exposition since the W'orld's fair.

For the purpose of making the afternoon of Flower Day it holiday , at the meeting of the executive committee of the exposition , a resolution was adopted , requesting the merchants - chants and business men to close their places of business at 4 o'clock on the afternoon - noon of that day. As this would be but two hours earlier than the usual time for closing , it is believed that most of them vll1 comply with the request. Manager Babcock of the Transportation department reported that the Elkhorn had made a Children's Day' rate for nil children attending the exposition on August 12 from Norfolk and Intermediate points on the line. The rates made are as follows for the round trip : Norfolk , $1.35 ; Stanton , $1.35 : Pliger , $1,1O ; Wlsaer and hleemer , l'est ; Point , 85 cents ; Scribner and Croweil , 7 cents ; Iloopor , 65 cents ; Nickerson , 55 cents. The rates will apply to all children of iS years or under. While adults are not given the benefit of this Ion' rate , one will b.- lowed with each ten children and at the same rate. The committee decided that the rate would be satisfactory and that all children from the points on the Elkhorn heretofore named would be passed Into the exposition grounds at 15 cents each upon that occasion. The train will stop at the Twentieth street gate on the north side of the grounds and returning It will leave from the same place. In order that none of the children may stray away or be lost , tags will be sent to the towns from which the little ones come. These tags will be tied upon the clothing of the children anti upon them will be an inscription indicating the place of their residence. The members of the Pennsylvania commission - mission notified the committee that if it was an open data they would like to have October 5 set aside as Pennsylvania Day. This will be reported upon at the next meeting. DOUGLAS COUNTY IN TIlE SWIM. SiipcrlntcnIent 'V.'nIiccr Maks n Die. play of hIortiCUhlTrC.

The rains have come along just 'when needed and put things In first-class condition. The men who have cattle are particularly fortunate , but the farmers as a whole will have more money this fall than they have had for several years. Iowa people are all interested In the exposition , and large crowds from that state may be expected as soon as it is possible for the farmers to leave their crops.

IiiisIiit' , , ut ( Ii , ' I'osstotiht'e , July the banner month in the history of the local imatoflico as far as stamp sales are concerned. The totsi sales amounted to $4,267.SS. From the sales so far this month it is thought that the total will amount to over $5,000. Yesterday Armour & Co. sent in an order for * 1.100 worth of 1-cent stamped envelopes to be ucd in sending out circulara. This order Is macrely mentioned to show that this new house is making an attempt to get its share of the business. All of the packers send out aim immense amount of mall nnd the cutting off of two of the clerks has badly crippled the service. it Is hoped that arrangements will be matle before long to reinstate the two clerks nee moved on August 1.

It Is the intention of those interested to accuse if possible 1,000 mnenibers in this city and It i desired that a majority of the mem- hers be voters , In this way it is hoped to control the liquor trahllc through the iolia. The local organization Is a branch of the American Anti-Saloon league anti has ( or its object the utter destruction of the open grog shops.

Another attempt is to be made to induce the railroad companies to locate arc lights at grade crossings in this city. An ordi- fiance was passed a long time ago providing for the placing of lights at all of the cross- lags and the railroads were given sixty days' tima in which to comply.Vitit the exception of the stock yards railroad cam- pany , the roads ignored the ordinance an'l ' have continued to do so. Now the city attorney - torney has been Instructed to go after the railroad people with a view of having these lights placed as contemplated , him of lljtiigt' Cattle. Reports from WyomIng anti South Dakota are l the effect that the run of range cattle this fall will be lighter than a year ago. The reason given for this is that n large number of the cattle companies have been cleaning tip and many have sold out. The herds have . been distributed all over the west , princIpally In Nebraska and Iowa , and vfi1 not ho shipped until fattened. It. is thought , however , that the shipments from qther localities to this market will more than make up for the shortage In Wyoming and South Dakota stuff. Magic CIty ( ; osssslp.
