and no Crisis in the Country
- Feared. ~

William Sauntry, of Saltwater, and
E. Rutledge, of Chippewa Falls, large
owners in the big mill, arein the city
today. Mr.. Rutledge stated to
a TRANSCRIPT reporter that every
thing was running smoothly at the
mill. and they predicted a very
successful season. And in the country
generally he thought the outlook
was propfitious, notwithstanding
the scare about gold going out OF

wealth were too great flor panic.
now. He thought politics had much
to do with the present talk OF Il
financial crisis. Every time there is
a change in the administration each
party seeks to make some capital
out OF the other.
Mr.. Rutledge thought the water
power at Little Falls wss equal to
that at Chippewa Falls and did not
see why there was not good future
for this city. It's location in the
midst of a rich numbering region was
one of it's great advantages.
These gentlemen will remain in the

want to take the quickest way We are
near the Illinois Central station, so let's

to the fair grounds, and besides the sub
urban trains take lots Of visitors out
There are several roads running to the
grounds, among them the Baltimore and
Ohio, the Northern Pacific, tho Lake
Shore and Michigan Southern and the
Pennsylvania systems.
Then there are the cable lines and the
elevated road, which latter has stations
at Sixty third street and on the roof of
the Transportation annex The cable
lines run On Wabash avenue and State
street. You can catch car at any time
on either of those streets up town. Will
the roads be able to handle all the pas
senger traffic? That question has been
asked thousands Of times, and there is
only one answer-that is YES" At the
terminal station alone there are 35 stand
ing tracks for arriving and departing
trains, which make facilities for the re-
ception of 100000 people every hour
The cable lines can handle $4,000, and
the elevated road 10000, not to mention
the 10000 or 10000 who can be taken

Ard now the electrical exhibit. What

After this 4 short tour about the Ad

not make any sort of a complete inspec-
tion of this building if we put in every
day here during the fair, but we will
take a layman's look about. From here
we pass to the stock pavilion. In this
vicinity are gathered oil and lumber ex-
hibits, etc.
Passing toward the south end of tho
grounds, we look at the displays of agri-
cultural implements, windmills, etc.,
and this brings us to the dairy barns
and on to the great stock exhibit. When
we have gone through that, we return
by way of the power house to the south
east corner Of the grounds. Here are
the forestry, dairy and leather exhibits
in succession.
Passing the great Krupp gun exhibit,
! we come to an Indian school, and be-
yond, on the point, is the Monasterio de

Crossing a bridge, we come to the

Now let us go over to the Casino, cross
to Music hall and find our way into the
Manufactures and Liberal Arts building,
which is the largest structure of the ex-
position and contains enough to keep
the visitor busy investigating for months
and months, and investigating in a very
casual way at that. From here we go
through the Government building, then
to the naval exhibit. and here we are at
North pier. 1t is but short walk from

the counties in northern Minnesota,
in which large bodies of untaXed
railroad lands are located. $50, 900 for
internal improvements for the years

apply in the case of an occasional rush,
such as is likely to occur on the Fourth
Of July or on Illinois day. In these
emergencies the transportation facilities

at least 100000 people.
A Glimpse of Midway Plaisance.
Here we are at Midway plaisance.
This is about as good place to disem-
bark as any, and it is one of the features
of the fair besides. The entrance is on
Cottage Grove avenue, on which street
the cable lines run; Washington park is
just beyond. Midway plaisance is near
ly mile in length. AS we enter the
grounds the first structure that greets
our eyes is the Women's building. This
is headquarters for the women of the
world, and visit to it will teach us
much about the advancement of the sex
in this day and age.
Before we go any farther you may

What the Boom Company is Doing.

"Wednesday morning the Mississ-
|ippi & Rum River Boom company
STARTED to drive from BraiIerd, says
the Minneapolis Lumberman, but
before many hours they had to cease
operations entirely on account Of the
alarmingrise in the wa ter. The com
pany began to turn logs out a week
ago last Monday, but had to stopon
account of the storms, and this is
the second timeit has been laid up this
season. How long this condition OF
things will exist is very uncertain.
The water in the river is raising
steadily ard in the past three days
at the rate of footfo every twenty
four hours, and if more rain falls the
condition Of affairs will be most
serious for the mill men, for delay
just now means 1, good deal. AL
though the arrangements for handl-
ing the logs are very good. yet but
little can be done with the water at
it's present stage. The ice still con-
tinues III the foe above Brainerd and
the prospect is that it it will not be
all out. for ten days or more unless a
warm spell Of weather comes along.
At some OF these points in the upper
regions the loggers are taking ad-
vantage of the snow that still covers
the ground and rnttinr in some nytra
hauling. The prospect now looks
very favorable. for the drives this
season and loggers are very conf
dent that all the seasons cut will be
fioated down the river this summer
Loggers are all ready for the drives
and are waiting only for the ice to
move.
II the water in the river will only
abate this week the company will be
running the logs into the mills here
next week as fast as they need them.
