Tour weeks of the Greater America Ex
position have passed away , and as a rule
the members of the management are satis
fied with the work that has been accom
plished In the way of bringing the enter
prise to the attention of the public. The
members of the new executive committee
contend that they have the affairs of the
exposition well In hand ; that they have
studied Its needs , Us strong points and Its
weak ones , until they nbw Know where they
stand. With this knowledge , they assert
that they nro In a position to give the
enterprise the proper momentum from now
until the close.
In studying the exposition and the method
ot conducting It , the members of this now
executive committee make the point that
they will bo able to reduce the running
expenses vary materially at the beginning
ot next month. They declare that they
propose to run the exposition upon the same
plan that they would a private enterprise ,
and In doing this they state that they will
cut oft all of the needless frills , thus re
ducing expenses -without Impairing the show
In the least. The members of this com
mittee have spent much time In the gen
eral offices and have ascertained the amount
of work that Is performed and the number
of employes required to perform the work.
In many of the offices and departments they
discovered that a number of people are on
the pay roll for whom there la compara
tively nothing to do. They also find that
In some departments clerks and employes
are not kept busy moro than halt of the
time during the day. In all of these places
the force will bo cut in two , the most ef
ficient and faithful of the employes being
retained. While the cutting of employes
may ho unpleasant , the members of the
committee take the ground that they will
bo doing nothing moro than a prudent busi
ness man would do under like circumstances
In the conduct ot his own private affairs.
However , later on , when the rush of busi
ness comes , these people may be put back ,
but until that tlmo they will bo off the
exposition pay roll.
ImliiiiiH on < lin HIiilT Trnut ,
While not catering to the opinion of
anyone the members of the executive com-
rtltleo liaro decided to locate the Indian
camp on the Bluff tract , just south nnd
west of the Horticultural building. This
decision has aroused flomo opposition from
persons who contend that It Is a pity to
disfigure and destroy this beautiful park
Speaking of this , one of the members of
the committee said "It is true that the
Bluff tract Is a beautiful park , probably as
handsome and artistic < u > any In tha coun
try , but wo are not In the park business ,
and consequently wo are not maintaining
parks for the eolo purpose of furnishing
something beautiful. If tbo city wanted
this maintained as a park , the authorities
should have taken hold of the matter and
secured It. Under our contract with the old
exposition , we agree to restore this ground
to Its original condition , and wo can no
easily do so after it has been used as a
camping ground for Indians as wn could If
we allowed It to remain as a beautiful lawn
during the continuance of tbo exposition "
The original plan was to locate the In
dians on tha little square just south of the
Transportation building , but it was found
that thlfi tract did not contain sufficient
ground , hence the change. Again , It was
found thi > t more attractions were needed on
the east side of the ground , and this was
regarded as the easiest way to furnish the
features
The old buildings that were used on the
Indian congress grounds of last > ear are
being moved to the now location , where they
will be used as quarters for men and for
Indians who object to living in tepees The
Oeorgla state building has been secured , and
this will be used for an ofllro and store
rooms. Thn Indian ponies , when not In
use , will bo kept In the Tiansportatlon
bulldng. | In the event of sham battles , they
will bo put on the grounds occupied last
year , the Indians passing up the Midways
In going from the Illurf tract to the scenes
of the conflict
Of the Indians , a number from Arizona
nro already here , and seventy-five Sioux
from the eon n try around Rushvillc arc ex
pected to arrive today or tomorrow
Tbe exposition officials are far from being
aMsfled tvtlh the re-.ult of vcslerd.i ) horse i
races , but they hope to remedy the defp < s
that existed and formulate a dlffeient plan
of Action before next Saturday J 1 i
Object < o I'mlne 'I no IVp . I '
Yesterday there were probabl ) TOO people
who wanted to are the r rw and woulJ
gladly have paid the regulation fee of a
quarter of a dollar , but thej refused to be
mulcted for an extra half nnd consequentfy
returned homo without entering the grounds
In advertising the races It WAS given out
that the price of admlRMon would bo 2 ! >
cents. 1'eople upon the exposition gr < unds
jesterday afternoon filed no objection to
this tax , but when people from the city nfd
cl"o\vhere reached the grounds nnd learned
that It cost them CO cents to gel on the
exposition grounds and a quarter to pass
through the gates to the race track there
was a loud howl and most of them returned
to the city.
It IE urged that arrangi'me'its c.in be mn > lo
by whHi those who want to gee the rnres
and the races only can be admitted tlunugh
a gate Independent ot the main grounds nnd
there given a check for Identification , so
that If they then want to pass Into the expo
sition they may pay the regular fee , thus
avoiding all controversy nnd doing away
with much dissatisfaction

The Interesting feature of the coming week
and the one that Is attracting attention Is
the formal opening of the Vine Arts building
The building has been open to the public for
some tla)3 and many people have Inspected
the pictures However , after consulting with
the officiate of the exposition , Director Key
deemed It expedient to have a public opening
and the date was decided upon , which U to
bo next Tuesday evening , between the hours
of 7 and 10. Upon this occasion Oodtrej's
band will be located In the open court be
tween the two sections ot the building and
will furnish music during the evening. H
Is likely that there will be one or two short
addresses , but by whom hns not jet been
determined ,
It has been decided that the concerts upon
the Lagoon will be given upon the basin at
the west Instead of on the harbor at the
east end of the little sheet of water. It has
been discovered that the high walls ot the
harbor Interfere with the sound and that the
facilities for seating nro not nujwhere near
as good ns In front of the Oov eminent build
ing. The Olympla witl be removed to the
now location nnd will be moored just cast
of the electric fountain , thus making It much
moro Imposing , as then Us decks will be
above the walls of the Lagoon , Instead of
down In a pocket as new.
At this tlmo there are approximately 7.623
term passes to the cxpcsltlon Iseucd and out
standing. The number may run a few more
or n few less. These parees nre divided up
as follows. Issued by the Bureau of Admis
sions to national , state , county nnd city
officials , 1,200 ; press , 1,000 ; photographic
passes to employes and concessionaires and
their employes , 2,376 , preachers , 100. The
passes to the preachers go to those who re
side In Omaha , South Omaha and Council
Bluffs.

Located on the West Midway and coverIng -
Ing five acres of ground Is the Philippine
village with Its dozen or more buildings ,
lake , fountains and Mower beds. The vil
lage has a frontage of 200 feet along the
Midway , forming a separate and distinct
feature. All of the buildings are constructed
along the style of architecture ot the
Islands. They are low , rangy affairs , cov
ered with grass , cane or bamboo and
thaitched with grass. On the front there
are thrco huge buildings , one of which Is
used for restaurant purposes and one for
a store. The third is a huge tower , through
which one enters the village proper. In
side the village there are a. dozen or moro
huts and buildings , some for office use ,
others if or housing the natives and still
others that are Intended to be resting places
for the guests. There Is a large theater ,
said to bo an exact counterpart of one of
the Filipino playhouses In Manila. The In
terior Is decorated with paintings , show
ing forest , street and other scenes on the
tsl.ind.
In front of the Filipino theater there are
numerous flower beds filled with tropical
plants , palms and grasses. They are sur
rounded by graveled walks , while at Inter
vals cool mater flows out into the little
pools. On one side of the grounds there
Is a lake sixty feet wide , 150 long and
from thiee to ten feet In depth. This his
a cemented bottom and Is to bo used by the
Inhabitants of the village for swimming and
boating.
The latest arrivals at Hagcnbacks are a
pair of blackmnned Nubian lions. They are
beautiful beasts , but Just as ugly as they
are beautiful. Their trainer , Captain Pur-
vlssla , Is with them and put them Into the
ring for the first tlmo last night. Though
they fought and threatened to do the man
great damage , ho conquered them nnd
worked with ( them until they were as docile
as Iambs At this show the trained bears
continue to be a good card and alwavs
amuse the spectators.
.New featurea nro continually being ndded
to the Cuban village , the latest being n
Cuban lunch house , where food such ns Is
served In the smnll Interior towns of the
Island Is served. The cooking Is not so
bad , but everything la so strongly beasoned
with pepper nnd garlic that It goes against
the grain of an American. However , the
Cubans will eat the. diet and regard It as a
sweet morsel.
The ( Marionettes hold a swell reception
yesterday afternoon when they were visited
by a party of railroad men. The little
wooden figures danced , talked and pel formed
tricks that seemed almoat human. Those
figures are worked by strings , which are
Invisible to ono sitting In the body of tbo
house.
At the Waragraph It Is hard to realize that
the columns of marching men nre pictures.
By the aid of a powerful light these pic
tures ure projected upon the screen nnd
men are seen engaged In bittlo. The spec
tators sco itbe armies engage In deadly con
flict , firing and pressing forward. Men are
seen to ( nil , killed outilght or wounded.
Probably the most Interesting pictures are
those of the great-war ships of the American
and Spanish navies as they sail around each
other , taking advantage of every situation
presented ,
Dr. Carl Louis Perln , the world renowned
palmist , thla week opens up n new departure
In thn line of palmistry reading at the Tem
ple of Palmistry. To accommodate all thoao
who cannot attend the exposition nnd who
cannot spare the mone > for a full life readIng -
Ing from him , ho advertlsca this week a
scale of prlceu , commencing at 10 cents , for
the answering of ono question , and running
up to } 1 for n complete reading by mall.
This Is bald to be the most liberal offer that
lr Perln has ever made In any section of
the country. His readings by wall from nn
Impression of the hand are said to be as ac
curate ns thofio made by personal Inspection
ot the palm. In making these mall read
ings Dr. Perln cmploMi no assistance , to
that all who send to him an Impression of
their hand may rest assured that it will se
cure his personal attention. He will still
continue to give personal readings at the
Temple of Palmistry , and this beautiful
building continues to bo ono of tbo most
eought after spots on tbo exposition grounds

The evening attendance was something
that surprised the most enthusiastic promoters
meters of the exposition. As soon ns the
25-cent rate to the grounds became operative
the crowds commenced to congregate and
during the next two hours there wai n jam
at nearly every gate. There were some
strangers , but the majority of the people
were from Omaha , South Omaha and Council
Bluffs. Once Inside the grounds they scat
tered along the lagoon , over the Plaza where
the band concert was given , and through tlip
Midway. All of the concessionaires aid n
good business and made money.
At the fireworks there was an Immense
crowd , the capacity of the grand stand being
taxed to Its utmost capacity. The vaude
ville features , which were seen for the la t
time , were of a high order and took well
with the people. The destruction of the
Spanish fleet was along the same lines as
heretofore seen , but stlfl It entertained and
pleased. The portraits burned were those
of Admiral Dewcy and General Fltzhugh
Lee.

There was little business transacted by

While the executive committee was In

members that there were less than 100 people
ple In attendance upon the races on the old
Indian congress grounds. After discussing
the matter for a short time Itwas decided
to continue the horse races , but to make
them free. The next race will be pulled
off next Saturday afternoon , at which all
parties who pay a single admission to the

Omaha will soon ha\e li operation an ex
tensive establishment for the manufacture of
pianos and organs. John C. Fullcnwlder of
St. Louis arrhed In the city jestcrday for
the purpose of completing arrangements for
the location of auch an establishment and
will ba\o It under way within a very short
time. Mr. rullcnwlder U a practical and
experienced piano and organ man and will
have associated with him eastern piano
manufacturers of unlimited means.
In discussing the institution of the factory
and the reason for selecting Omaha Mr.
Fullennlder said last night
"It has been my purpose for some time
to establish .1 manufactory of pianos and
organs at GOIIIO point In the middle west ,
and the opening seemed so desirable that 1
found no dllllculty In Interesting an ample
sufficiency of eastern capital In the plan.
Our first Intention was to establish the plant
In DCS Moines , but upon investigation I
found that the railroad facilities were nnt
ample enough to meet our demands , and
there were other barriers which made It im-
nractlcable to locate there. July 6 I came
to Omaha and looked the field o\er here.
I liked the cltv. It has all the advantages
and facilities of Chicago and other eastern
trade and manufacturing centers. The rail
road accommodations are especially good ,
there Is splendid Ingress and ogress , and
the city Is the center of the territory In
the middle west which we expect to aup-
Ply.
"While It Is not yet absolutely definite
still wo are almost certain as to the lo
cation which wo shall be able to secure
We Intend to erect a three-story brick and
stone building , designed especially for our
purposes. The first floor will bo used for
the heavy machinery , the second for the
nlaners and joiners and the third for the
finishing department. Wo will Inaugurate
this plant with seventy-five laborers cm-
ployed. The most of them will be skilled
mechanics , whom wo shall bring from tha
east. Our Institution will represent on the
start an Investment of $300,000.
"I have- been In the piano business for
many years , although never before as a
manufacturer. We expect to produce only
high-grade Instruments ; pianos which will
compare -with those manufactured * by Brings
of Boston , Steldo & Sons of New York and
the Schaff of Chicago , and organs that will
* o equal to the Stevens reed and pipe or
gans , manufactured at Marietta , 0. These
nro the Instruments which I have been
handling for many years. "
Mr. rullenwldcr stated that Just as soon
as some necessary details concerning the
property , which will bo secured , are com
pleted the building will bo rushed to an
early completion.
It Is Inferred from Information received
from sources other than Mr. Vullenwldcr
that the eastern companies which ho has
represented In St. Louis Brlggs , Stclde &
Sons , Schaff Bros , company and Stevens
are Interested to a certain extent In the
establishment of the Omaha factory nnd It
la also hinted that some local capital IB
connected with the "business. " The section
throughout the middle- west tributary to
Omaha has long been looked upon with
rapidly Increasing favor by eastern manu
facturers nnd ths location of n piano and
orcan factory hero Is considered to be the
first of many new manufactures which will
BMik location In this city before a great
while.

the head of the performer showed above the
surface. Judge Kstello WDH adjudged to
have given the bent exhibition of firmness
In the water , as he clung to a post from the
