seen through West Indian
Spectacles.

Special Delegate from st. Thomas D. ". l..
to the Worlds Columbian Exposition,


I have seen it stated somewhere, that ''the
Columbian Guards are strong active msn OF
good character and under strict discipline;
that the duties Of a Columbian guard take him
all over the grounds of the Fair, amt that /
ad ition to his other accomplishments
a guide he is in every sense or the worl,
and by whose advice the traveller may safely
and surely ABIDE This 10 what ne may
have developed into now that every one knows
how to find his way about, that the Exposure"
isa thing of beauty and Of Joy TO every one
who comes and looks at it, and the services %
a guide are no longer needed, but my own SUI
experience in the earlier days OF my coming
to this truly wonderful place, has taught Ih9 INC
foollshness of any one trusting to these actlVe'H0"
of GOOD character as f II as guidance is Concerned
Mluy weary tramp ave had through my
misplaced confidence IN their ability to direct
me. Once | plod lei a distance Of nearly two
miles through mud and slush only to retrace
nv footsteps to the place whence started,
not far off from which, vas the building was
seeking. Moral, do not pin your faith on a
Columbian guard if you come to the Worlds
Columbian Exposition .
If you come, I say, now is your time TO
come. Everything is in apple pie order, and
if YOU have only the 'shelelS' You ought to
come-if you have not; get hem honestly
if you can-but get them, as the Quaker Salt,
to come to this magnificent gathering Of all
nations, the unparalleled White city, " within
the walls of Jackson Park. AS a pIelsuring
place it has attractions never before approach
ed this country or in the rest of the CIVILIZED
world. AS a place for elf-instruction, self
cultivation, it surpasses any other spot rs a
dream of architectural IoyeIiness, it Is as per
feet as poor mans imperfect nature can m'ke
it. I 20 not believe that so impressive q
panorama has been unrolled any where as the
ono YOU will see when you stand near either
of tile emit ances to the Fair, or still better,
perhaps, on one of the bridges which span the
long canal where it crosses the Great
Basin. Here four vistas, to east and west, to
north and south open out before you, three
finished with rich arrangements Of columns
and statues and one stretching away towards
a green expanse and still more distant faGades
and domes. 1t is worth travelling thousands
Of miles TO see the Manufactures Building
alone.
