The buildings look as old as they actually
are. We see many which were built in ZOO,
and their quaint architecture and ancient

back to q century when the new world was
not even thought of.

The Mission of h PORTER.
This illustrious individual, despite his uni

beggar in disguise. HIS Tip must be in ac-
cordance with his official position 1t must DO
no ordinary tip; he does absolutely nothing
for YOU during your %sojourn at the hotel; no

would soil his well kept hands: he simply
wishes you a pleasant promenade or journey,
and for such Difference on his part 10 an or
binary traveller like myself he will expect
two guldens, or about 81 in American money.
Should you hesitate 10 s~ubstan-
TALLY reward him, upon your de-
parture he will remind you Of your
Negligence and politely but firmly suggest
that YOU have forgotten the porter" and he
will not permit that omnibus 10 urive on until
the tip is dropped into his eager palm.
Should IL not be large enough TO satisfy
him for he is "A man Of expensive tastes and
SMOKES only those cigarettes marked "Horas-

this tip might do for Boots, out not for him.

arousing enthusiasm among all classes Of
women for the exposition. Wisconsin has ap-
pointed one lady upon the state commission
who Is not lady manager. There is no state
ment In the report as to whether or not the
lady managers of Wisconsin are ex-oficio mem
bers OF the state commissions; but as such is
usually the case il may be assumed.
Ohio has all along been particularly friendly
toward the exposition and has given the lady
managers membership in the state commission.
Maine divided its state commission equally it
being composed of four men and four women.
The national commissioners and the lady man
ayers and their alternates are ex-osiicio mem
bers OF it.
BOOM IN TEXAS.
Texas can make no appropriation because the
constitution forbids such use of the public
moneys; but a State Worlds Fair Association
has been organized and tho women and chill
dren OF Texas have inaugurated an exposition
boom" Prizes have been offered the chill
drer who secure the largest subscription lists
and almost every child in this vast country is
already working for the worlds fair. The
teachers have been enlisted-and Texas has
10000 months visit to the exposition being
the reward promised those whose districts
show the best results in the collection of the
exposition fund. The lady managers of Texas,
led by Mrs. Ryan, are unusually capable women,
and the wife Of the governor, who has been
appointed an honorary manager, is working
with them with great zeal
The work in Arkansas is especially active and
the leader of it is the wife Of the governor Of
the state and one of the ablest members of the
board. No state appropriation has been made.
but the lady managers have directed their zeal
toward the worlds fair convention to be held
on August ).
In every instance. excepting the three special
appointments in Colorado, the lady commits
sioners receive no salary. only their expenses
when engaged in the actual service of the COM
mission being paid by the state.
