AS the days go by Biela's comet is whirl-
Ing on nearer and nearer to the earth, and
at the same time the various projects of
the Worlds fair are also whrling along
The comet will soon he conspicuous OBJ
ject i'll the skies, and about the same time
the exhibition buildings will also be on
view. Indeed, if the fiery monster of the
skies cares to come this way, it might find
n resting place in jackson park and pose
as one of the attractions.
The structures now in progress of crea-
ton involve all sorts and styles of archi-
lecture, but perhaps the most interesting
Is that which will stand on the Midway
plaisance, and which will represent n typ
ical German village. 1t is intended chiefly
for the pleasure and comfort of Germans
and German-Americaus, although any Wis
itor to the grounds will be welcome, and
its erection has the sanction of Emperor
William, who has also granted its promOt-
ers the privilege of selecting two crack
military bands from the imperial army to
furnish the music.
The project includes the display of an
old time fair, two restaurants, Il German
concert garden, II water tower and an
chronological museum. This reproduction
of German life will be the Mecca of Teutonic
citizens. The language of the fatherlanl
will be the exclusive means of intercourse,
and the atmosphere will be filled with the
strains Of "Wacht am Rhein."
The original plan was the reproduction
of n complete German city of the Middle
Ages, but through lack of time it was coil
cluded to build Il German village, repre-
senting period at which rural life at
tanned it's highest eXempification in the

In the center of Il plat 715 feet long there
will rise n castle, built in the style of the
Sixteenth century, surrounded by moat
sixteen feet wide, behind which, for
further protection, palisades will be con-
structed. Over Il drawbridge the road
will lead through II massive sandstone
gateway into the interior of the building In
the halls, rooms and salons will be found
the most famous collection of weapons in
Germany.
In the principal hall there will be fine
exhibition of German art, and in the chapel
of the castle prehistoric collection will be
placed. On leaving this spot visitors will
turn to the right and enter an ideal Ger
man village, of which the principal feature
is the town hall.

which has just been made by the police in
Austria of n regularly organized gang of
kidnapers, who have made it their bust
ness to supply the demand for the harems
of wealthy Turks in Constnntinoplc, may
serve to draw attention to the large num-

In some cases, such us, for instance, i'm that

English home and surroundings to enter

the Mohammedan shcreef of Wazzan, in
