Opening? Zay Prognua Complete.
The program of the opening day ex
ercises a complete, and aa It now
stands It la 'elaborate enough to pleaae
everybody. President Roosevelt will
wiKwin, imsnign eisiva mnu in.
diplomatic representatives of foreign
count rlee will participate, and there
will be a military and naval display tha
like of which never' has been seen be
fore In American waters.
At present every effort of the man
agement la being concentrated on the
work of . transferring exhibits from
the railroad yards to the exposition
grounds, superintending their setting
up In the several buildtnge and prepar
ing for the first rush of visitors that
will follow tha opening of the big fair.
Norfolk. Hampton Roads and vicinity
are preparing for an Invasion of vis
itors, ths advance guard af which la
already arriving, and which will con
tinue until the expoaltlon gates ara per
manently closed. Nobody has under
taken to estimate closely Juet how
many persona will be .attracted to
Jamestown between May and Novem
ber, but In ger.eral way tha flnano.ere
or tha enterprise expect the gate re
eelDta to aollDss the f la-urea attained
by any af - t.ie expositions heratof are
held In America, "outside of the big fairs
at Chicago and at. Louis.
iSxeursloa aatea o Beads. , .
The arrangsmenta that have been
made with the railways reaching' here,
and which have- connections to ths
north and south and to the Pacific
ooaat are fairly satiafactory to all
earned. The excursion rates that will
ba eharged travelers who desire to visit
the exposition ara within" reach of near
ly everybody's purse, and they will
doubtless serve to encourage tbousanda
to undertake the trip. The fact that no
aeetlon of the country la richer In his
torical associations, that many of the
stirring events of the three great wars
in which the United Btatee has en
gaged took place hereabouts, and that
It Is within easy distance of the na
tional capital, of Philadelphia, Atlantio
City, New Tork and other points of In
terest, ara expected to contribute large
ly to the attendance of visitors from U
parts of the country, and particularly
from tha west.
Outward and visible signs that the
opening of the exposition la at hand
are abundant Hotels are filling with
visitors and the public buildings and
business houses ara putting. . on gala
attire. The waters of Hampton Roads
ara dotted with warships of every de
scription and flying the flags of half a
dosea nations. More than a score of
these great fighting machines are now
at anchor in the roads, and nearly every
hour brings additions to the fleet.
Military Poroee Snoamped.
The military forces that are to take
part In the opening are already en
camped at the exposition grounds. The
principal contingent Is the Twenty
third Infantry, from Madison barracks
and Fort Ontario, New York, l
General Orant. who haa bean placed
In command of all the troops at the ex
position, has detailed Captain J. I
Hlnes, Twenty-third infantry, as chief
quartermaater; Captain Jullua N. Kll
Han. commissary, aa chief oommlaaary,
and Major Charles E. Woodruff, sur
geon, as chief surgeon and chief sani
tary officer at the camp at Jamestown.
In addition to tha regular troopa a
number of companies of state mllltla
will take part In Friday's exercises at
tending the opening of the exposition.
The governors of the several atates who
ara coming to the opening will be at
tended by their staffs, which will add
to tha military display. During the

of the southeastern states and the'ea-
deta of many military academies

eeaalvely occupy the permanent mili
