At the Worlds fair the crew of the
Progress will give exhibitions Of whale
catching, in which everything will be
true to life. except of course the whale.
The cabin of the old vessel will be con-
verted into museum, wherein will be
shown relics Of the old whaling days
before the monsters of the deep were
blown up by bombs. In fact, there will
be souvenirs of every branch of this fast
decaying industry
The New York Central and Hudson
River railway will have an interesting
exhibit at the Worlds fair. 1t will con-
sist Of an exact reproduction, down TO
the minutest details, of the first railway
train run in America. The track will
be laid in the transportation building
and the quaint old engine, with the
queer cars, which were nothing but the
bodies of stagecoaches mounted on
/ fanged wheels, will all be there. The
original train, of which this is 10 be q
facsimile, started July 81, 1882, on the
] Mohawk and Hudson railway, between
Schenectady and Albany. The friends
of the passengers were oppressed with

the safety of those on board, who were
regarded as being engaged in particu-
larly dangerous experiment.
! Another railroad exhibit which is GER
tain to attract great attention is the
General, the famous engine which
was captured by the Andrews raiders
during the war. Every one is familiar
with this story and has read how the
raiders were executed for running away
with the General.
Perhaps the most grewsome exhibit at
the Worlds fair win be the one presided
over by Mr.. Donald Burns, of New York
It will be as nearly as possible repre-
tentation of a jungle, and will be called
the "Den of Snakes" At least two
specimens of every kind of snake known
to naturalists will be on exhibition, and
the den is to be so arranged that visitors
will be able to see the reptiles at feed
ing time. Such of the snakes as feed
upon others will Of course be confined
in separate cages. There will be no
''sea serpents" at the fair, but the man
who has seen them and can tell you just
exactly how they looked as they "disap-
peared beneath the surface of the water
will doubtless be there in force, and that
will be the next best Tor worst thing to
having the sea serpents themselves.

Tho others were carried to the same
place by the three remaining ships. The
masters received from the United States
government thirty-fve dollars for each
passenger rescued, and in addition Cap

handsome watch for his courageous con

enough money in her time TO make sew

trip alone she cleared $50, 900 on whale.
