Everything passed off smoothly, and the best was made of the numerous opportunities for fine acting with which the play abounds. Last evening the bill was the ever popular ‘‘Solomon Isaacs,” which gives all the ladies and gentlemen of the troupe a good opportunity forthe display of their abilities and is always sure to draw: good audiences. Tonight ‘‘Unknown” with> its beautiful spectacular effects and thrilling situations will be reproduced. It is one of’the best sensational dramas ever given here, and will doubtless attract a large audience. _>e—— Born for Something Else. Tidings: ‘“‘Supervisor Mulloy is the man to find the north pole.

Al Races Yesterday. \ The formal opening of the Paviljon on Tuesday evening was a brilliant affair. The building was crowded with people bent upon sight-seeing and social enjoyment and no one appeared to go away disappointed. The annaal address delivered by Hon. E. W. Maslin full of interesting information and wholesome suggestions, and was not only atteritively listened to but was endorsed by many outbursts of applause. The gentlemen prepared it upon comparatively short notice, but that fact would never be suspected from any fault in its arrangement or sentiments. Goyne’s Band, which plays at the Park afternoons, gave a number of fine selections during theevening. The attendance at the Pavilion night before last was fully as large as atthe opening last: year, but owing to the enlargement of the Hall and the doubling In width of the avenues between the rows of exhibits there was not such jamming and jostling as then. the names of the exhibitors and their articles, until all who have duly entered their displays are mentioned: There are so many of them that all cannot be mentioned in one issue, and perhaps not in two or three. PAVILION EXHIBITS. the art of manufacturing candy (home-made] toa science, and her display in that line possesses powerful attraction for everybody having a ‘‘sweet tooth.” The Clipper Gap Box Mills show some light and strong berry and fruit boxes of good shape. J: Bryan, who has a ranch near Union Hill, Grass Valley township, displays tobacco of his own raising and curing and experts say he understands the treatment of the weed in all stages. Branch & Clark have a.fine exhibit of their. patent cure for asthma and lung diseases. This medicine is called ‘‘Hannah Branch’s Great English Remedy,’’ and the inventor and proprietors “of it are Nevada county people. It is sbout the best thing the reporter has ever tried for coughs, colds, etc., and the demand for itis all the time increasing. L. M. Sukeforth makes a Greditable showing.of furniture, etc. [he upholstered work is especialdy rich. He fitted up the spave on short notice, but it would have ‘been difficult to make many improvements in the general appearance even with weeks of preparation. ; E. F. Rosenthal, whose place of business is on Commercial street near the Transcript office, has fixed up as handsome a display of French confectionery as can be found anywhere. Lhere are in the coliection many queer and. beautiful conceits-in crystalized sweets. iIt is hard to get the children away from Rosenthal’s space when once they ‘‘get on to it.” The ladies of the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union have fitted up in neat style a booth surmounted by the inscription, “For God and Home and Native Land” wrought in letters of gold. Their display consists principally of lections of sundry members, and they propose to donate to the Unjon’s treasury all cash premiums received. Mrs. Lester & Crawford’s millinery and fancy goods display is one of the most leading features of the whole collection, and the attention it receives demonstrates that it is fully appreciated by old and young. Itis beyond doubt the most expensive and elegant aggregation of goods of that description ever displayed in the District. _ Mrs M Rosenberg, table scarf. ~“Mrs’C K Hill, sofa — cover, painted comb case.

Some practical jokers draped a hydraulic nozzle in crape Tnesday, and smuggled it into the Pavilion where they gave it a prominent place. Superintendent Casper soon discovered it, and the ancient relic of the dead past was unceremoniously dumped into a secluded corner of the entry clerk’s den. Mr. Casper doubtless thought that it would not bein good taste to harrow upthe feelings of the valley people by such an exhibition, many of whom are our honored ‘guests. Some less considerate individual subsequently carried the nozzle out into the machinery annex, and there placed it where it would notescape the notice of vis" itors. Secretary George Fletcher and Assistant Secretary G. H. Fletcher are kindly doing everything in their power in the way of affording press representatives an opportunity to get what information they want for the papers. They are never in toomuch of a hurry to tell the item-hunter what he wants to know or puthimin the way of finding it ovt with the least possible trouble.

Everything passed off smoothly, and the best was made of the numerous opportunities for fine acting with which the play abounds. Last evening the bill was the ever popular ‘‘Solomon Isaacs,” which gives all the ladies and gentlemen of the troupe a good opportunity forthe display of their abilities and is always sure to draw: good audiences. Tonight ‘‘Unknown” with> its beautiful spectacular effects and thrilling situations will be reproduced. It is one of’the best sensational dramas ever given here, and will doubtless attract a large audience. _>e—— Born for Something Else. Tidings: ‘“‘Supervisor Mulloy is the man to find the north pole.

Al Races Yesterday. \ The formal opening of the Paviljon on Tuesday evening was a brilliant affair. The building was crowded with people bent upon sight-seeing and social enjoyment and no one appeared to go away disappointed. The annaal address delivered by Hon. E. W. Maslin full of interesting information and wholesome suggestions, and was not only atteritively listened to but was endorsed by many outbursts of applause. The gentlemen prepared it upon comparatively short notice, but that fact would never be suspected from any fault in its arrangement or sentiments. Goyne’s Band, which plays at the Park afternoons, gave a number of fine selections during theevening. The attendance at the Pavilion night before last was fully as large as atthe opening last: year, but owing to the enlargement of the Hall and the doubling In width of the avenues between the rows of exhibits there was not such jamming and jostling as then. the names of the exhibitors and their articles, until all who have duly entered their displays are mentioned: There are so many of them that all cannot be mentioned in one issue, and perhaps not in two or three. PAVILION EXHIBITS. the art of manufacturing candy (home-made] toa science, and her display in that line possesses powerful attraction for everybody having a ‘‘sweet tooth.” The Clipper Gap Box Mills show some light and strong berry and fruit boxes of good shape. J: Bryan, who has a ranch near Union Hill, Grass Valley township, displays tobacco of his own raising and curing and experts say he understands the treatment of the weed in all stages. Branch & Clark have a.fine exhibit of their. patent cure for asthma and lung diseases.

He fitted up the spave on short notice, but it would have ‘been difficult to make many improvements in the general appearance even with weeks of preparation. ; E. F. Rosenthal, whose place of business is on Commercial street near the Transcript office, has fixed up as handsome a display of French confectionery as can be found anywhere. Lhere are in the coliection many queer and. beautiful conceits-in crystalized sweets. iIt is hard to get the children away from Rosenthal’s space when once they ‘‘get on to it.” The ladies of the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union have fitted up in neat style a booth surmounted by the inscription, “For God and Home and Native Land” wrought in letters of gold. Their display consists principally of lections of sundry members, and they propose to donate to the Unjon’s treasury all cash premiums received. Mrs. Lester & Crawford’s millinery and fancy goods display is one of the most leading features of the whole collection, and the attention it receives demonstrates that it is fully appreciated by old and young. Itis beyond doubt the most expensive and elegant aggregation of goods of that description ever displayed in the District. _ Mrs M Rosenberg, table scarf. ~“Mrs’C K Hill, sofa — cover, painted comb case.

Mr. Casper doubtless thought that it would not bein good taste to harrow upthe feelings of the valley people by such an exhibition, many of whom are our honored ‘guests. Some less considerate individual subsequently carried the nozzle out into the machinery annex, and there placed it where it would notescape the notice of vis" itors.
