The Office at tho corner OF Third and jack
sou streets occupied ~ the bediamonded
and handsome representatives OF the North
ern Pacific a.. d v iscOhsln Central railroads,
has added a NV feature to ] many attrac-
tons. 1t had been thOl ght That Col. Stone,
Charlie Dixon, NJ P. Barry OF tne -thlrty-two
degrees. to say nothing OF Brothers
Tarbox. Cole McCaskey et al. would
have proved attracilYe ,noGEh for anything
but they apparently do not think so.
The latest addition is picture OF the new
Wisconsin Central depot at Chicago. By an
ingenious device the offspring Of the fertile
brains OF the crowd, in which talloW candle
plays q prominent part the picture IS so
illuminated as to make the great depot look
as it would have done if il had been built
in time enough to be burned at the Chicago
FIRE, The effect is realistic and is worthy Of
the combined inellects of the brainy and
Beautiful crowd from which ii emanated.
