tify to the grandeur of every feature of
tbe great show.
But they cannot even then conceive
of the vastness of the Exposition that
the Electric City is now p’anuing to
throw open to an admiring public No
vember 2nd 1891. The last one while
it was at the time conceived to be tbe
most dazzlingarray of art, of science
and of general amusement cannot be
compared to the one that will soon be
in progress in Augusta.
The Exposition Company was organ
ized last summer with such men at the
head of it whose very names carry with
them the perfect guaranty that tbe
c lining fair will eclipse anything of its
kind ever seen in the Southern States.
Here are the men who have the reins
of the Exposition in hand:
officers:
Thos. P. Henry,
J. B. Platt,
President
1st Vice-Pres’t
2d Vice-Pres’t
3d Vice-Prea’t

, him, answering inquiring letters from
j exhibitors, and patrons of the Great
Exposition that came not only from
every section of tbe South, but from ev
ery quarter of the Globe as well.
One would have thought tbe clever
Manager had the responsibility of tbe
Great Chicago World’s E&ir resting
upon his shoulders, so great was the
rush of work befoie him.
"I haven’t hardly time to talk to even
a newspaper man,” said Manager Hen
ry and that meant a very great deal
coming from an old newspaper man
himself, such as Manager Henry is.
“But I am anxiouB to have you say
through the Banner to the vast multi
tudes of people in North Georgia,” be
went on to say; working with corres
pondence all the while, “that Augusta
wants them all to come down in No
vember and join her in proclaiming to
the world at large that Georgia can beat
the whole civilized united kingdom
when it comes to holding an Exposi
tion.”
“We will have an Exposition that
will be as instructive as it will be en
tertaining. It is the very kind of Ex
position that the people of classic old
Athens will enjoy. The schools and
colleges of your city will fiud more at
tractive features to the Augusta Expo
sition than have ever yet been seen at a
show of this kind. The Arts and aci
euces, Electrical appliances, and gen
eral displays will be such as to please,
profit,and instruct every college stu
dent, every pupil of the Lucy Cobb and
the Home School.
“The Exposition will be run day and
night. At night the Social World of
Augusta will join in the Kirmess which
will be one of the chief amusements of
the entire Exposition. Many of Augus
ta’s fairest young ladies will don the
fancy coctumes.of the K’rmess in th e
music' hall each night, and th e
gia are expected to be on the fieid, too,
and everybody in Augusta is already
betting their money on them.
THE GREAT ALLIANCE DAT.
Alliance Day, November 18 will be
a conspicuous day.
Hon. L. F. Livingston of the Georgia
State Alliance, and Hon. J. William
StokeR, of South Carolina Alliance, will
deliver addresses to large numbers of
Alli&ncemen invited to meet them. Col.
Livingston writes tbe management.
“You can have my co-operation to
advance your laudable undertaking at
the time you suggest, (November 18) to
my utmost capacity. Xu tbe meantime
if 1 can assist you in any way

Dr. Stokes writes; “I render hearty
assent to such a movement, and will as
heartily help.
Every AUianceman in Georgia onght
to go to the Augusta Exposition on Al

There will be instruction for him,
for bis wife and for his children. Each
leader of the Alliance in Georgia will
be on hand, to make tbe day profitable
by discussing tbe methods, the past and
the future of their cherished order.
Some eloquent speeches will be by
prominent Alliancemen from all parts of
the South on tbe live and important

When the firemen reached the spot
they found the building in a mass of

still several people on the upper floors.
With commendable promptness the fire
men made several gallant efforts to
reach the endangered people, bat all
such attempts were repelled by the vol
