Twenty-five representatives of Nebraska ,
selected from almost as many different lo

maining on the grounds from before noon
until hit gat night. These men -were the mem
bers of a committee appointed by President
Miller Fomp-tr , n.JjCu , their duties being to
cxamlut SftiSiflflPthe / buildings and the
contents and then publish a report of their
findings , relative to the1 merits or demerits
of the exposition.
Accompanied by President Miller the com
mittee reached the exposition grounds
shortly after 11 o'clock yesterday morning
and at once proceeded to the Public Comfort
building , where a brief period was spent ,
after which the members sallied out on their
tour of Inspection. The Horticultural build
ing was the first of the main buildings to be
examined. After spending considerable tlmo
there the members of the committee re
traced { heir steps and crossed over to the
Main court , visiting the buildings , ono after
another. This occupied the greater portion
of the afternoon.
Having completed their labors a trip was
made through the Midway , and then the
members of the committee visited the Indian
camp on the south of the Transportation
building , and from there they again made a
partial round of the main buildings oa the
court , asking questions concerning the ex
hibits and ascertaining facts relative to their
merits.
At the noon hour the members of the committee
mitteo lunched with the officers of the ex
position and at dinner they were the guests
of the executive committee at the Philip
pine restaurant.
While the members of the committee ab
solutely refused to express an opinion rela
tive to tbo exposition or the exhibits , it was
apparent that they were well pleased with
what they saw and that their report when
made will reflect credit upon tbo labors ot
the management.
The committee will meet again Monday
morning , when the report will ho formu-
ated and submitted to the executive coni-
nltteo. Although it is not known what this
report will contain , it is intimated that it

the Kiiterlnlniiient nf VlHltom.
People are waiting with great Impatience
'or the magnificent spectacle In the way
ot a musical military combination to be
; lvcn on the Grand plaza tomorrow evening ,
The spectacle Is named "San Juan , or the
\rrny Quadrilles , " and has been written
and arranged specially for the musical dc-
> artment of the Greater America K spool-
Ion by Lieutenant Dan Godfrey , who has
been In conetant conference for the past
week with Musical Director Kelly with re
gard to the best means of making the even
ing a success.
The story is 'based upon the gathering of
tbo United States troops and is done In true
military fashion. After a long period of in
cidental muilc , which U realistically sug
ccstlvo ot cnmp life , a bugle call Is heard In
the distance anil Is followed by the far-off
strains of martial music. Presently a band
comes In sight playing regimental airs and
preceding a company ot regular United
States troops In full uniform , Juet as they
nrrlvo another bugle call Is heard and Im
mediately after it the sound of a distant
drum , which BOOH receives Itself Into the
noise of an approaching drum corps , with a
troop of Infantry , while the prancing ot
horses Is heard In the distance. The sounds
of the drum corps are almost drowned by
the shrill , clear sounds of another bugle ,
and a company of soldiers , headed by a
full brass band , appears on the scene amid
heavy cannonading. Then all the bands and
soldiers assemble beneath a largo flag and
the "Star Spangled Banner" Is played by
the united musicians amid a ealuto of ar
tillery and email arms. Lieutenant Godfrey
will have the assistance of Adclman and
his band , the Indian band and a corps ot
veteran drum majors , In addition to the
United States troops and his own British
band.

The Hawaiian village , with its forty pco-
plo from the Sandwich Islands , is open to
the public. The first performance In the
theater was Riven last night and to standIng -
Ing room , too. From the first the actors
made a hit and nt every subsequent per
formance during the evening the house was
packed. The Hawaiian theater Is a. neat
wooden structure , well seated , ventilated
and comfortable. The scenery Is resplendent
In many colors and everything about It has
a tropical appearance. On the sides ot the
arch huge coconnut trees are painted , while
the flics and wings of the stage represent
scenery in and around Honolulu. The back
curtain , which is the gem of them all , gives
an idea of ono of the old Hawaiian towns.
There is ono broad street running down
to the sea and on clthor eido are the
thatched huts of the natives that were In
use before civilization made Its Inroads and
changed the habits and customs of the pee
ple.
Regarding the performance , It proved a
pleasant surprise. It was as clean as ono
would see In the first-class theaters of any
city , though it was slightly on the vaude
ville order. The first number on the pro
gram was by the members of the famous
double quartet that made such a popular hit
upon the Lagoon Friday evening. The mem
bers of the organization played upon violins ,
flutes and mandolins and captivated the nudl-
cnco completely , toeing compelled to respond
to an encore. The music is sweet , low and
distinct , but full of volume , with a touch
of sadness running through it. The next
number presented was a native dance by
three dancing girls. This dance is some
thing new hero and was loudly applauded.
The girls -wore short red skirts , wreaths
of green loaves about their heads and necks
and anklets ot sheepskin. In dancing they
kept tlmo with hands , feet and bodies to
the music , which for the occasion was a
dull , drolling sing-song , much llko that
ot the Indians. The music was pounded
out ot wooden boxes and it was a difficult
matter to realize that the half-naked musi
cians squatting at tbo rear ot the stage
were the earna as those who electrified the
audience a few moments previous. The cn-
tlro performance consists of music , vocal
and Instrumental , and dancing , with noth
ing to offend the most fastidious.
The exhibition of deep sea diving , with
Captain and ( Mrs. Sorcho in tbo title role ,
drew several select and large audiences dur
ing the evening and furnished a great deal
of Instructive entertainment for all who vis
ited the place. The owners of the concession
have a neat and attractive .theater , with a
hugo tank filled with filtered water , where
the performance is given. A great deal of
tlio work is performed by Mrs. Sorcho , who
descends into the tank , which has a plate
glass front , thus enabling , the spectators to
witness the work connected with searching
along the bottom of the sea. The woman Is
clad in a diving suit , which has a helmet en
casing the head. In this there are glass win.
dews , through which the operator sees. Con
nected with the helmet are pipes running
to the surface and through which fresh air
Is pumped down , while through other pipes
the foul air is permitted to escape.
Last night in giving the exhibition Mrs.
Sorcho carried an electric light , which shown
brightly as she grouped about the bottom
ot the tank. She gave an exhibition of col
lecting valuables , searching for dead bodies
and the methods pursued In raising sunken
ehlps. The entertainment was very enjoy
able.
Hagenback did an enormous business last
night , frequently being compelled to turn
away the crowds that thronged the seats
nround the pit where the performances with
the wild animals took place. Last night , for
the first tlmo In a couple of weeks , four lions
were turned Into the pit , where their tralnyr
handled them In a manner that created con
siderable attention. Tbo beasts were un
usually ugly and tlmo and again piepared 10
spring upon the trainer , who , with whip and
rod , flogged them into BUbmlsslon.'compell-
ing them to slink and creep along on the
floor like so many dogs afraid of their was

A Utter of four Hone , born In captivity
here last summer , was turned into the ring
and put through a course of training. These
brutes , though usually docile , showed fight
and a number of times tried to spring upon
their trainer , who always managed to keep
them In front of him. For the amusement
of the children , as well as the older people ,
an entertaining exhibition was given with
the trained dogs. Tbeso animals do numer
ous trlcka , and In performing some of them
It is easy to believe that they are endowed
with season.
Lunette was ono of the attractions that
drew ono of the big crowds both afturnouu
and evening , and each and every perform
ance she kept people guessing how she could
pose In midair.
The Scenic Railway , ever popular , was a
great favorite Saturday. While this .attrac
tion Is always a prime favorite , It Is doubly
so nlghtfl when there arc ft re works , as going
up and down the hills and around the curves
there is ample opportunity to witness the
destruction of the Spanish fleet In the har
bor of Manila.
It thcro In ono place more tbun another
that is sought after during the hot nights
It Is tbe Giant Seo-Suw. From the dizzy
heights wbcra tbo car eoes there is always
a cool breeze , which makes a ride in the
upper currents of tbo air a most enjoyable
pastime.
Tha opening of the Fat Man's Beer Gar
den in the German Village was an event on
the Midway yesterday. Mr. Rchlff has reserved -
served a space In bis vlllago for Henri Mau-
rlco Cannon , the famous fat man from Ger
many , weighing 61T pounds , being the heav
iest man In the world. U Is one of the
coolest places on tbo exposition grounds to
spend your tlmo and get a fine glass of
Edelweles beer , and BOO the fat man , free of
charge.
Since the opening of the Temple of Palm-
stry Dr. Perln has had many peculiar people
call upon him from the attractions of the
Midway , but yesterday capped the climax
when he was visited by an Arizona Indian ,
who had become frightened nt the sights he
saw here and who , having heard through an
nterpreter of the wonderful powers of Dr.
I'erln , wished to aicertaln for BUTO whether
ho would over return to bis dwsert home or
not. On being positively assured by the doe-
: or that ho was In no danger here , but that
10 would live to return anti be honored by
his tribe for the trip ho hud taken , he went
away happy and said that he would goad
more of his people to see the great white
nan who read the future. He also surprised
the doctor eoinewliat by telling him that
