estate board to-day his conception of q
big circular building, 9, 200 feet In diam.
eter, with central tower / 1872 feet

The entire exhibition would be con-
tanned In this one structure, which
would be in the form of an Immense
tent, the greatest 10 existence. The
walls are planned TO be of brick and
the roof OF corrugated iron and glass
The exhibits would be arranged 10
concentric circles, the same radical di.
visions to represent each nation In the
different classes. thus making the
most perfect system possible. In the
construction Of the roof $4,000 wire,
would stree ch from the tower to the
outer wall, which is TO be sixty fee,

could be put up In six mouths. II

NUNS were therefore apprised Of the
event, but notified that the arrange

miitee. At an early hour In the eve-
ming the besieging army OF pleasure
seekers appeared, and being over sixty

In tDp ,,.sIiiest of the eating houses
in the Wall street region, saw crowd
of men taking hasty bites; but at ta-
BILE in quiet corner sat leisurely and
good looking but somewhat stout
young man devouring a canvas back
duck.
"There'sa chap" said a mutual &C
quaintance, who spends between
twenty-five and thirty dollars a day
for table expenses. He has no one but
himself to think OF. aud l think he b
an unusually well behaved fellow.
But his appetite is the biggest thing of
its kind in town"
II was observed that thirty dollars q
day was an outside figure for one in
dividual TO eat up in day.
mot when the individual eats six
times every twenty-four hours and
has an especial fondness for canvas
back duck. terrapin and choice wines.
I suppose you've heard the idea ex-
pressed that the thin men are the big
eaters. That's a mistake. Thin men
have spasmodic appetites, and go for
two weeks at time pecking over their
plates like eanaries. II is the stout
fiorid party that eats long and largely,
and are the fellows that keep the guy
going against the thin men.
''Now, that chap eating the duck
would give hundred thousand dol
lars to lose fifty pounds of flesh, but
he can't deny his appetite il il were 70
save his life. Funny, ehi What types
we get here, don't wet Think Of him,
with cool million, loafing his life
away. He has never been TO Europa,
reads nothing except the newspapers,
seldom goes 10 the theatre or opera,
but simply collects his rents every
quarter and eats. Well, We all have
an idol, l suppose. New York Lettse.

ATLANTA, Nov. 2S.-The following
card of thanks has been given to the
public by Gen. Gordon, who was recent
ly elected to the United States senate:
To the press and to my friends gener-

who have so faithfully, SO earnestly and so
unselfshly labored for my election, and to
my friends in the legislature, both in and
out of the Alliance, who so heroically and
firmly stood by me in the recent senatorial
contest, and the thousands of friends in
this state and throughout the union, who
by kilograms, letters, or public demonstra-
tions. have signified their qualification at
the results of the recent election, wish to
return through the public press my heart
felt thanks and to give assurance of my
sincere appreciation. This method of max
ing my grateful Acknowledgements seems
appropriate because these testimonials are
so generous, so spontaneous, and so num-
erous. JOHN B. GORDON.
