A Exhibition.— We are pleased to be 
able to report that Mr. Milner and his 
executive committee are pushing forward 
the arrangement of administrative details 
in connection with the forthcoming Inter¬ 
national Exhibition at Earl’s Court with 
that necessary amount of energy which 
alone leads to success. The alterations 
in the gardens, too, are being most vigor¬ 
ously pressed forward in order to have 
everything ready for the opening ceremonj^ 
on May 7. The committee met on Tues¬ 
day afternoon, at the Hotel Windsor, and 
passed the schedule of prizes to be offered 
for competition at the several ipecial 
exhibitions to be held during the season,
