DEPAKTfcKNT of Publicity akd Pivohotion, rWfliy Circular Lottar-No. Ill, It has been definitely decided that the official ceremonial opening of the Cali fornia Midwinter International Exposi tion shall take place on Saturday, Jan. 87. This decision has been reached after a careful consideration of all the cir cumstances and there is f ull assurance on the part of those who are in charge of the preparations that everything will he in readiness at that time. The great fire at the Columbian Exposition on the night of Jan. 8 did not damage the ex hibit intended for transfer to San Fran cisco, except that a few of the cases In which they were packed were pretty well drenched with water. Luckily, however, the contents of the cases were not injured, and, as a matter of fact, nch a very small proportion of the Mid winter display remained unshipped at the time of the tire that the delay will not be aggravated on its account Be fore this letter is read the last carload of exhibits will have loft Chicago for San Francisco, and before that time also, the cores of other carloads which are now on the way to San FranciBco will have been unloaded in the Sunset City and placed in position in the different build ings in which they have been assigned a location. These buildings are beginning to at tract from visitors the praise they justly merit. Their rapid growth was but one subject of wonder in the progress of this great enterprise. The arrangement of the vast number of exhibits with which their interiors are to be embellished is, of course, another wonderful operation, but meanwhile the development of the ideas of the architects and the develop ment at the same time of the general scheme of color which is being worked out mall the buildings comprises still another field for wonder and admiration. Charles Uraliaui, the well known artist, is director of colur at this Midwinter Exposition, and he is working out in this connection one of the prettiest pic tures that the world has ever seen, with a group of architectural palaces set in a frame of evergreen foliage and against the background of dark hills and sunny California sky. " Pretty as a picture " is the first comment that conies from the lips of visitors. " Wonderful to behold " will be the inevitable sequel to the orig inal utterance. The concessional features, having made haste to get ready for Midwinter hay-making, will all be ready by the I7th, unless there may be a single excep tion in the case of the great electric tower, work on which can scarcely be completed inside of three or four weeks. The machinery plant which, of course, includes the electric lighting arrange ments, will be all in readiness by the day set and will be utilized on a general scale for the first time on that occasion. The only previous occasion when the street decorations of San Francisco ap proached the grandeur which will be at tained, on Jan. a; was when President Harrison paid a visit to the Pacific Coast, but the arrangements already made are emphatically in evidence of an intention on the part of the citizens of Han Francisco to outdo every effort they have made in this line. It t part of ths plan of the Exposition management that there shall be a grand street parade throngh the principal thoroughfares of the city, and there is already no little controversy over the line of march. If the wishes of the citizens were to be ac ceded to, the procession would have to move through every street and the Ex position grounds would never be reached. A happy compromise will undoubtedly be effected, however, and public and orl- vat buildings on the route of the pro cession will be a blaze of bunting and a a oi color. Governor Murlrliam will declare the day a legal holiday. Mayor Ellert will issue a proclamation closing all munici pal oinces, as far as possible, and calling upon the business men of the city to close their stores. The National Guard will turn out in full force, and every civic and fraternal society in the city will participate in the parade. There will be more bands of music than have ever been seen in a San Francisco street parade, and if there is not a bigger turn out of citizens, in the city and at the Exposition grounds as well, than has aver been culled forth by any demonstra tion on the Pacific Coast, the expecta tions of thousands of those who have Judged the temper of the commnnitv will be grievously disappointed. ineomoiai opening ceremonies will ke nlace on the grand stand which is xte' Vt nnrnose, and uiOMesk. in aueuomui'on Utli' equal that wlTfuli" wil ceremony of breoliliig groui? fully 75,000 people gathered oj of wilderness where, in fo months, a veritable city ot palues saw wencroateu.
