No two days of the Centennial will be remembered with greater pleasure. They were signalized by certain picturesque features that will be long recalled with pleasure, and the public Is under obligations to the Honorary Commissioners for having contributed so largely to the pleas tuft of Ohio days. The Marietta pageant was brought here through the efforts of the Honorary Commissioners, the entire expense—the ladies and gentlemen taking part were their guests—being borne by them. It v, as a superb success,and gave ^bounded delight to the thousand's who wltnesse it.hast night it was repeated M th even greater success than on Tuesday night It would be u * grand'historic pageant by win anever the characters were personated, but when it is remembered that those taking part are the most prominent ladies and gentlemen In quite the most Hilstot rattc town in the Mate, muuy of them direct descendants of the grand old pioneers who helped to shape the infancy of the new glorious Htale of Ohio. an4 that not a few wore in the tableaux the very garments worn by their great ancestors, it becomes a genuine pageant of history.The programme lasf night differed only In the presentation of one extra tableau, “Tbe First Marriage in the Territory,” Miss Kitty Nye, an extremely handsome girl, personating the bride, and wearing the high comb and bridal veil of Spanish blonde that her great aunt hud worn onM rs.Spencer, Miss Catharine Wheatley as Ann* Fox and Miss Dade Pattin were, in addition to those already named, among the notably handsome girls taking part.Dinner at the Grand.At5 o’clock last evening a very handsome dinner was given by the honorary Commissioners at the Grand Hotel in honor of the MariettaNEW CHAMBER-OF COMMERCE.The Contract for Furniture Awarded Yesterday.The Board of Beal Estate Managers of the Chamber of Commerce held a meeting yesterday noon in the Directors’ Room of tbe Chamber.The fence surrounding the new building on the Vine street side was ordered taken down, and it was stated that work would begin to-day in laying tbe sidewalks, under the direction of Nor-eross Bros., the contractors.The sidewalk will be of the granolithic style, a sol hi and substantial pavement.There has been some trouble in having the street iamp-posu mov^d a couple of feet from their present location. This should be done before the contractors complete laying the walk, and the Real F.state Managers are anxious that the Board of Public Affairs will give the matter early consideration.The Interior decorations of the new building are progressing nicely, and the stone carving in the main hall will probably be tbe finest piece of artistic work ever seen In this country. The frescoing Is almost completed, and is a hand-pronounced to___________The closet and office arrangements are superior to any in a public building in this city, and the beating apparatus and plumbing the very best.It was the opinion of the meottirs of the Board that the building would be ready for occupancy between the 1st and 10th of December. It would have been turned over to the Board of Real Estate Managers by Norcross ffrothers on the 1st of November, had they not b lt;1 delayed in the interior decorations, such t fthe stone carving and frescoing.Rids were opened for supplying t 1 building with furniture.There were but thro© proposals—ont from Nor-cross Brothers amounting to $8,900, the Meader Furifiture Company $7,500, and the Robert Mitchell Furniture Company $0,161.The latter firm being the lowest bidders, the contract was awarded them.REPUBLICAN VOTERS OF CINCINNATI, DO NOT FAIL TO REGISTER TO-DAY.GRAND ARMY DAY.Liile of Uarcb for tbe Great Parade This— Afternoon. -y' *Tbe Sham Battle at tbe Base tall Park-w E B E3 I®, PIANOMe.

Auburn Prq lyterians. located on Auburn avenue, with a hi idsome facade overlooking Auburn street, waiyiljiiost totally destroyed by fire yesterday now The chttrch was a pretty frame structure, wlttiui graceful little spire, a handsomely dec-ora^fc interior and Very handsomely furnished. The idt. Auburn Presbyterians have taken great pride in their church, and it was with extreme sorrow that the information of the burning of the church was received by the members of the congregation who were engaged down town in business.Just how the fire originated no one knows. It was only last week that the sexton reported to the Trustees that the furnaces and radiators were in excellent condition, aud as there had been no fire in the church since last Sunday, and as the flames were first observed in the rear of the church, in the substructure of the roof, the cause of the destructive fiye is something of u mystery.There is no doubt about it, we are doing the lion’s share of the Cloak trade. WHY? Because we are MANUFACTURERS; because we secure our imported goods directly from the largest European manufacturers. We thus save customers the jobber’s profit. Any intelligent person can see at a glance that we can sell Cloaks at the prices the dry goods stores pay for them and STILL MAKE MONEY.We are showing now the grandest stock of Cloaks, Jack-* ets and all kinds of Wraps for Ladies ever seen in this country.
