The main attractions nt the exposition
Friday were the music In the afternoon and
evening , and the Venetian Carnival In the
evening. The latter attraction Is proving
tnoro and more of a pleasure at every repe
tition and the pleasure experienced by thoeo
who ncnt out Friday night was very groat.
The multi-colored lights , the sweet singing
of the Hawinllanii and the music by the two
bands makes not only a picture beautiful
to the eye , but a tone picture that appeals
to the oar.
The Bwaylnc lines of Japanese lanterns
ndd n touch of color to the Illumination
nnd the effect Is most pleasing with the
addition of cnlly decorated gondolas with
their freight of happy people , and the fact
that the sincere are on the water makes
that part of the procram doubly enjoyable.
The electric fountain feature Is still piovlng
a most happy addition to the evening pro
grams and the pretty dance In the midst of
the spray elicits much pleased comment.
The band concerts were well attended nnd
Bollstcdt gave such a variety of music
that all were satisfied , from these who have
made a llfelons study of music and llko
only the masterpieces , to these who have
ear only for the popular songs of the day.
Friday afternoon ho trave as the piece do
resistance of the program the world fa
mous Peer Oynt Suite , by Orelg. This
music was written to accompany the poem
by Ibsen , and Is a wonderful production ,
lull of the weird nnd peculiar muslo of the
north. In the evening the Indian band
gave a concert , and under n now leader
the band has been Improving wonderfully
of late. The singing by the Hawallans and
the playing of the Filipino orchestra were
not the least pleasing parts of the en
semble.

Two famous old cannon point their
murzles from the corridor of the Cyclorama
on West Midway and they are attracting the
attention Of a great many. The story con
nected with the famous old war dogs Is
that they were captured at the battle of
Shlloh from the federal troops by confed
erates and later , at the battle of Missionary
Rldgo , they were recaptured by the union
army. The guns are known an Lady Buck-
ncr and Lady Garcia , they having been
named for noted women of Kentucky. Sev
eral changes have been made In the Cyclo-
rana and moro arc contemplated. The
charge up San Juan hill la one of the new
features. A large picture of Colonel Haw
kins , late of the Tenth Pennsylvania , Is
being painted under order of Manager Me-
Connell to bo placed on ono of the walls.
'A new thing under the eiin Isithat- being
arranged at the Old Plantation on West Mid
way. A cornfield drill Is the lew. thing , and
judging from the rehearsals It will bo a
winner and no mistake. About sixty col
ored people , ranging In color from the shin
ing cover of a ripe pumpkin to the blackest
ebony , and In size from a babe In arms to a
six-footer , take part In the show , and there
is always lots of fun. The camp meeting has
of late begun to take on a dog-day move
and there Is much fervor expressed by the
many old deacons who take part.
Lola Cotton , the child wonder at the Hun
garian camp on East Midway , mystifies
every ono who witnesses her remarkable
powers. Blindfolded , ehe will name any
article her father selects among the people
who congregate before the booth and she
never falls In her tests. The fortune tellers
also are a never-ending source of curiosity
to visitors and they are kept buay revealing
the future , or telling what has happened In
the pant.
The Blue Grotto on West Midway , where
Mlfe Cora Beckwith , the world renowned
swimmer , Is performing , Is ono of the most
novel as well as most pleasing booths on the
grounds. The Irregular arrangement of the
front , which resembles the entrance to a
huge etonc cave , has been fitted up with
electric lights and everything about the
place Is proving attractive. The ballyhoo Is
also ono of the drawing cards. The maglo
stairway causes lote of fun. Friday night a
hay rube climbed up on the stairs and sat
down aud it took the united efforts of all
the managers and employes to dislodge him
from his perch.
The Gorman Village Is ono of the moak
attractive spots on Cast Midway , where a
person may enjoy the /tight / of quaint peas
ant costumes and hear the famous Tyrolean
( lingers1. The refreshment part of the program
Is also of much excellence and It Is a feast
In Itself to hear the burgomaster announce
In tempting array on the menu. The Tyro-
loans are Interesting by reason of their
pretty costumes and their musical accom
plishments. They play zithers and guitars
and hnvo good voices , The programs are well
arranged and a visit to the Midway should
by all means Include a itop nt the "Deutchcs
Dorf "
A new name for the Chutes Cafe Is the
' 'Tented City , " The reason for the new
appellation Is the fact that tents have been
placed around the Chutes lagoon and tables
placed therein , where guests may sit nnd
watch these who shoot the chutes whllo
enjoying refreshments from the cafe. It
makes a very cool place to rest In and there
la always enough excitement afforded to
make n few minutes tbero far from dull.

Captain Edward Tense of Honolulu , Ha
waiian Islands , a member of the staff of
President Dole and chief of tbn Hawaiian
commission , was a visitor on the grounds
Friday , ha > lng arrived the day before. He
Is a native of Wyoming , but has been In
Hawaii for many years. On his way out he
stopped In his home state and had a very
pleasant reception. He was the gucat of
the governor of the state and several of the
state officials. Captain Towse brought with
him u largo collection of pictures which are
to be displayed at the Hawaiian exhibit ns
BOOH as they are properly framed. The&tJ
pictures will add materially to the Interest
of the display. John F , Soper , manager of
the Hawaiian News companj , an old and
long established book and music house of
Honolulu , ho * been visiting the members
of the Hawaiian commission for a day or so.
He Is on a trip through the statee. He ex
pressed himself as very much pleased , not
only with the Hawaiian exhibit , but also with
the exposition as a wholu. Mr. Logan , the
becrctary of the commission , states that a
great many people confuse the Hawaiian ex
hibit with the Hawaiian village on the Mid
way , while M a matter of fact there Is no
connection between the two. The Hawullan
exhibit Is for the purpose of showing the r -
sources of the country and the habit * of the
people , and Is wholly for educational pur *
poses.

The new citntoguta for the Art Gallery
were put out yesterday and the ( booklets
show a remarkable collodion of painting- ,
arranged In numbered galleries and each
picture numbered. One of the novel rooms
Is gallery No. 12 , which Is called "The
Christ Itoom. " It takes its name fr-m a
large statue of Christ by Samuel J. Kltson.
This benign figure occupies an alcove at
the end of the room and In seen through an
arched opening In green draperies ar
ranged most artistically. Palms and other
greenery are also arranged about the Htatuo ,
which Is a beautiful one , standing as
dot * with hands outstretched as if In Invl-
tatlon.
In keeping with the main attraction are
many pictures , on the wall , all of a more
or less religious nature. A painting by
Murrlllo , ono by Mnrle Brooks called
"Tho Introduction of ChrlstlanH ; ' into Eu
rope , " the "Slstlno Madonn. by Raphael
and several others make up the collection.
Two pictures In the room tire exceptionally
striking. Ono of these la "The Betrayer"
by V HutchenK. This picture represents
Judas In the act of betrayal and lights of
lanterns shining In the deep darkness makes |
a peculiarly effective picture. The other
one Is "Dante and Virgil , " evidently In-1
spired by the "Dlvlna Comcdla. " Thin'1
represents the woods whore Dante met Vlr-
gll and Is a fascinating stud } .

only of emblems of the order. At one end
of the hall stood a somber cross beirlng n

symbolic of Immortality. On tripod stands
near by rested a skull and crossboncs , the

venerable preceptor , who stood at the head
of the casket by the cross
When the procession halted nt the sldo of

scene. After a pravcr by the potentate
with members of the council kneeling the
covering < of the casket was removed nnd on
It was placed the several symbols taken
from the person of the dead.
The laurel wreath , symbolic of the empty
honors for -which men strive In life , nnd

with the end of life there Is no longer need
for human attributes.

t SOUTH OMAHA NEWS. |

Under date of July 20 , 1899 , J. H. Brlg-
han , acting secretary of the Department of
Agriculture , Issued an order regarding the
dipping of sheep which completely upset the
Missouri river live stock markets. This new
order , which Is very rigid , went Into effect
on August 10 , and provides that no sheep
affected with scabies and no sheep which
have been In contact with others so affected -
fected shall be shipped from one state or
territory Into another unless said sheep
shall have first been dipped In a mixture ap
proved by the department.
The restrictions thrown about the ship
ment of sheep were so strong that shippers
and stock yards managers became , alarmed
at the Injury which would result If the or
der were allowed to stand.
Almost Immediately after the order was
made public efforts for the modification of
the order commenced and yesterday a tele
gram wns received hero from Washington to
the effect that clean sheep Intended for
some other market need not be dipped at
this point. In other words , the new order
has been modified by the Department of Ag
riculture to conform to the old manner of
handling sheep , leaving the ruling the same
as It always has been. Sheep brought Inhere
hero and sold to be taken back Into thu
country to be fattened will have to bo
dipped , but no others. Animals Intended
for Immediate slaughter need not be
dipped. Flocks can now be shipped to this
market , and , If It Is desired , can be reloaded
and go on to Chicago without dipping. The
modification of the order of the government
will no doubt cause sheep owners to rejoice ,
as the expense of dipping Is considerable and
the animals are hardly nt for slaughter un
til eorao time after being dipped.
Seott After the Delegation.
It develops that the democratic pri
maries Thursday was really a fight between
the supporters of John Fltz Roberts , presi
dent of the Board of education , and these I '
opposed to him The Roberts supporters | I
were routed horse and foot , and the dele
gates elected have asserted that Mr , Roberts I
will get scant treatment at their bands. Mr. I
Roberto Is very anxious to secure the nomI I
Inatlon for regent of the State university , I
but now that his friends have been turned [ I '
down he may not oven be mentioned In the
convention. Judge Cunningham R. Scott of '
Omaha has already commenced to make '
,
overtures to the delegation , but so far with
out results. One of the loaders of the dele
gation stated yesterday that the delegates
would be solid against Scott , no matter what
Inducements ho offered.

been 1 appointed to look the matter up so
1i
reported i Later on the executive committee
withdrew the offer dm ! made a rate of 25
rents ( for each admission , not allowing the
union any money concession at nil.
It wns the sense of the meeting that the
union ] did not want to go Into Its already
,
badly depleted treasury for money to carry
on ' the celebration , and the matter was re
ferred back to the committee with Instruc
tions to wait upon the executive committee
of the exposition to eeo what might bo

In these final dnjs of the nineteenth cen
tury one does not look for nilrncles , nnd
lillgiImngcH of the devout nro few nnd far
between In this country. Yet not BO mnny
miles nvvny from here , In New Jersey , re
port * the Philadelphia Times , there Is the
manifestation of a miracle that Is attract
ing thousands dnlly , nil Intent upon a
glimpse- the dlvlno work , for such they
re illy believe It to be.
Long processions of people , mostly the
Italians living In the neighborhood of the
Oranges , are dally ranking their wny to the
stone quarry of John O'Rourke , half way up
the steep side of the Orange mountain , to do
homage to a peculiar jollowlah spot In the
side of the cllft. The figure Is declared by
those who hnvo seen It to bear n striking re-
eemblance to St. Anne , nnd not ono of
these who have mode the pilgrimage could
bo Induced to believe other than that the
jelluw spot In the cliff Is an appearance of
the saint and child as they arc pictured In
sacred paintings.
The place where the figure has appeared
Is at the west side of the quarry , and about
fifty feet up the face of the cliff , which Is
too precipitous nt that point to admit of
n closa Inspection. From the ground the
figure appears to be about a foot In height ,
composed of a bright meal nnd seen
through a glass bears a resemblance to the
figure of n woman. Miss O'Rourke , the
daughter of the proprietor , Inspected It
through a skyglass and she declared that
she could without difficulty make out n re-
mnrkablo resemblance to the traditional
figure of St. Anne.
John O'Rourke , the proprietor , discovered
the figure three weeks ago. There had been
a small rockslldo on that side of the quarry
nnd Mr. O'Rourke Inspected the cliff every
morning to mnko sure that It was safe for
the men to work In that vicinity. One mornIng -
Ing he T\as surprised to see to sliming figure.
He said nothing about t , however , but when
it remained for weeks as bright and sharply
defined as at first , be became Interested and
on aSturday called the attention of some
of his workmen to It.

Catarrh Is the bane of womankind. Near
ly every case of so called female complaint
Is due to catarrh of the pelvic organs. A
woman free from catarrh is generally a
well woman. Catarrh of the polvlo organs
makes more women miserable than nil other
diseases combined.
