MAMMOTH LAWN PARTY AT THE FAIR.

the world has ever seen was that given AT
the White City in honor Of the visiting West
Point cadets No less that Is 900 people at
tended. and it is estimated by some that the
number who enjoyed the grand lawn fete was
double that The party was held on the
beautiful lawns that surround the state
buildings on the north end of the Fair
grounds The trees were hung with many
colored incandescent electric lights, and the
buildings were beautifully lighted ard deco
rated in honor of the occasion. There was
an abundance of music, singing and dancing,
and the officers in charge Of each Of the
State buildings seemed to vie with those OF
their sister States in making the most at
tractive display. The Nations of the earth
held high carnival on the water. Small
craft of the entire world were afioat, manned
by expert native boatmen and bands of sing
ers accompanied them. This was called an
international regatta. There was dancing
at some of the State buildings and upon the
lawns.

FAIR NOTES.

FAIR NOTES.
A TOUR on foot round the Building OF
Manufactures and Liberal Arts means a
walk of about three miles.
The ruins of the Cold Storage Building,
VIII ere the brave firemen lost their lives. are
still objects of grewsome interest.
The flag displayed at the point nearest the
North Pole SO far reached is shown in the
War Department of the Government Build
ing.
HOTEL men say that advance engagements
of rooms indicate that the first three weeks
of September will break all records at the
Fair.
A STRAWBERRY eleven inches round is one
of the "mammoths" that interest the farmers,
amateur and practical, in the Agricultural
Building.
The original of Lincoln's emancipation
proclamation is one of the extremely inter
esting objects to be seen in the State Depart
ment Of the Government Building.
PIECES of wood from the beam to which
Columbus was chained and the iron ball that
held the letters are shown among the thou
sand and more relics in the Convent of La
Rabida.
THE largest check ever drawn upon a
bank in the United States is exhibited by the
Pennsylvania Railroad. 1t is for S14. 949.-

and Baltimore Railroad.
EVERYBODY interested pecuniarily in the
Fair is feeling better. It seems now as if all
anticipations of success will be realized be-
fore the Exposition closes. The railroads
from all directions are bringing train-load
after train-load of people to the city. From
100, 900 to $50, 900 visitors can be counted on
now on ordinary days just a.s 90, 900 or 3d.

of Objectionable features. A mimic bull Of
mammoth proportions assists in the merry
making. A weird song, which is really
melodious, is sung throughout the dance.

BOAKD OF EDUCATION.
Convention For Maui New
School House for KiIauea,
Kauai.

The board of education held its
regular monthly meeting yesterday
morning at 10 o'clock.
There were present Vice-Presi-
dent Alexander in the chair, mem
bers W. W. Hall and s. NJ. Damon,
and Secretary W. Jas. Smith.
s The minutes of the last meeting
were read and approved.
s The question of a new school
house and teachers cottage at XII
lauea, Kauai, was. brought up, and
after discussion, it was determined
to erect new buildings there. The
new buildings to be erected viii be
similar to those lately built at Ha-
namaulu. The secretary was auth
orized to prepare plans and call for
tenders, which will be done shortly.
An application was received from
the teachers of Maui regarding the
holding of local teachers con-
vention there for interchanging
views on educational matters. At
ter considerable comment on the
new plan. it was decided to allow
the teachers of Maui, or of the
other islands, upon request, to hold
monthly teachers conventions
where practicable and desired, The
details for the inauguration of the
Maui convention Will be held over
until the return of Inspector GEN
eral Atkinson, now on Molokai.
After attending to considerable
routine business, including matters
relating to teachers salaries, the
meeting adjourned.
It is understood that at the next
meeting of the board the questions
of electing a new member of the
board of education and appointing
an assistant secretary in place of
Mr.. Potter, resigned, will be con-
sidered.

The Improvement in firearms in
the course of the present century
almost equals the progress from
crossbows to fintlock muskets. The
trumpet-shaped musquetoons of the
fifteenth century could be used
only at short range, but their chief
defect was their liability to miss
fire altogether. AS late as 1852
Marechal SAKE pardoned a deserter
because every one of the six mus
kets in the hands Of the firing
squad had failed to explode its
charge, and the delinquent was
considered a protege of providence.
Imagine the chances of that soldier
if the six marksmen had used<rifes
of the Mannlicher pattern, viii
cartridges warranted to explode
449, 1895 times in 100000 shots.

WILL CHICAGO REFORM {?
Bibles VIII Be Sent There
Printed in Every Known
Lan3uaSe.

One Of the exhibits at the Worlds
Fair is the interesting and curious
one which has been prepared by
the American Bible Society. Many
rare and valuable volumes from
the library in the Bible house will
be placed on shelves for the in
spection of the public. Among
them will be copy of the original
King James edition of the Bible,
which was published in 1911.
There will also be displayed a
fac-simile of the first page Of the
first Bible ever printed, the famous
Mazarin Bible of 1850, and a copy
of the Biblia Pauperum, represent
ing the style of printing from
wooden blocks before the invention
of movable types. The English
Hexapia, showing six early YER
sions of the Scriptures at single
opening, together with the Greek
text, will also be exhibited.
The Chinese books will lie with
open pages, so that they may be
more readily seen. Copies of vari-
Gus versions Of the Scriptures in
Chinese will be included in the list
of these works. Specimens Of the
Mandarin, Foochow colloquial,
Ningpo colloquial and others will
be among those to be presented.
Complete or detached portions of
the Scriptures in the Turkish, Ara
bic, Syriac, Persian, Urdu, modern
Greek, Siamese, Burmese, Pail, Ia
mil, Tulu, Marathi, Ponape, Tibe-
tan, Mpongwe, Sheetsiva, Azerbijan,
Osmali-Turkish, Mende and other
languages will form part of the ex-
hibit.
In order to demonstrate the great
advancement made in the publica-
ton of the Bible in other tongues,
the Rev. DR.. e. w. Gilman, who
has charge of the foreign depart
ment of the society's business, has
selected a large number Of works
that are printed by the society in
nearly all of the 800 languages in
which the Scriptures have been
published. One case will be
especially devoted to the Chinese
language and its colloquials, to ex-
emplify the stupendous difficult
ties that have been overcome in
mastering the multitude of dialects
which the Celestial tongue presents
to the translator.
a separate case has been pro-
vided for the Scriptures in Hawaii
an, Ebon, Slavic and Bulgarian,
together with bilingual specimens,
showing the two languages in par
allel columns. OF these are the
New Testament in German and
English, in French and English,
in Portuguese and English, in
Welsh and English, in Danish and
English, and Swedish and Eng
lish.

AT THE BARRACKS.
False Rnn0r of a Scare-Coni-
petfiye Target Practice.

petffiye Target Practice.
Yesterday morning rumors were
circulated around town that the
troops at the barracks and govern
ment building had been nearly
scared out of their clothes tie
night before. An ADVERTISER re-
porter was dispatched last evening
TO investigate this street talk Of the
royalists.
Captain Good was seen first. He
knew nothing of any scare at the
barracks or elsewhere He said on
Thursday evening word had been
received at the barracks about S
o'clock, from the station house, that
it would perhaps be well enough to
keep an eye open during the night,
as royalist rumors were afoat.
Captain Good said he took no stock
in the report and did not even
strengthen the guard, all officers
and men going to bed at 9 O'Clock,
as usual.
. At the government building only
the usual number of men were kept
under arms and no danger was eX-
pected.
Later in the evening Marshal
Hitchcock was seen, who said that
nothing more than a mere warning
had been sent to headquarters. 1t
is more than likely that the whole
thing was worked up by some of
the romancers of the ex-queen's
party, who love to talk Of attacking
the barracks, but fear to do it.
Discretion is certainly the better
part of valor just at present.
