Democratic Sentinel, Volume 11, Number 33, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 16 September 1887 — THE CHICAGO INTER-STATE EXPOSITION. [ARTICLE]
THE CHICAGO INTER-STATE EXPOSITION.
The great inland Citv of America now comes to the front with its Fifteenth Consecutive Annual In-ter-State Exhibition of the products of Science, Industry and Art, opening Wednesday, Sept. 7, and elosing Saturday, Oct. 22. The Mammoth Building is now crowded with exhibits from almost every part of the world, illustrating every department of human activity, with its latest and best products. It is impossible to do this great collection justice by no# ticing it in detail. In some important respects it has never been equaled at any temporary exhibition, and in scarcely ny respect has it ever been excelled. All railway and transportation lines give reduced rates to visitors, and there is every indication that the usual attendance of about 500,000 will be well nigh doubled. It certainly will be if the intelligent, enterprising well-to-do people of the Northwest properly appreciate the opportunity it affords. ■ ■«•» ‘Uncle Tom’s Cabin’ at Opera House Monday night.
