By the time this letter Is perllsed by most cl
our readers, the Princess Eualia will have
been wined ami dined many times by Chica'
go's "4GU' and be on her way back to Spain
She has made us a hasty visit, and II she Is
not satisfied with the manner in which we
have treated her, she must b. ALI migrate in
deed 'Tis not every day one receives so-
den invitation, yet such was the sort sent 10
the princess by the directors of the fair.
By the way, many men are known to the
world at large chiefly as the husD and of Mrs.
SO and So Thus in this case the prince al
though of royal blood is of secondary impor-
tance, and at times one has to stop and think
if this princess wears the matrimonial yoke
about her neck. Sle WAS enter tanned tight
royalty at the breakfast given in her honor al
the administration building-her pathway
was strewd with pansies thickly spread over a
bed of Milton carpet. This may be very well,
but how much joy and pleasure thos" same
flowers would have brought to the eyes and
hearts of the sick.
Speaking of royalty reminds us of the fact
that the Duke de Veragua is now on his way
home to Spain.
We are glad to note the increased att nj
ance during the past week However, mucl
of this is due to the very favorable weathe
and the coming of the princess and the extr;
touches put on because of her presence. II
the railroads would do their pait and reduce
the rates, there would be no need of an emp
ty train shed at the terminal station. 1t is
very certain that some heroic measures will
have to be devised to get the people here, and
that quickly, and if prior TO this time there
had been less red tape, and more active work,
from the head officials down to the humblest
laborer there would have been much less lea-
son for such feeling of dissatisfaction as now
exists.
All last week the tenn perLnce congress held
meetings in the art palace and discussed the
virtue of water pure and water mixed. They
certainly will need to leaye many OF their de-
egates here iu Chicago to do missionary work
this summer for with the recent decision OF
the United States court forbidding the OPEN
ing of the fair on Sundays, the saloons will be
in full blast and IN Ike rnlny recruits for the
dpsomana institutes. We trust that now
these purtanial people who have thus met
the devil half way are satisf ID. The result
of this decision will make itself manifest in
more ways than one ere the leaves begin to
turn, and possibly when it is too late, they
will awaken to 4 realizing sense Of their fan
aticisn.
Michigan may we'll feel proud Of her soldier
boys, who have been encamping among us for
the past week. These cadets marched like
veterans in acting as escorts 10 the princess
during her visit to the fair.
Montana is very proud of the silver statue,
which was unveiled in the mining building
lee ,ntly.
1t does not seem possible that duling the
dull month of May, in the little postotfit:e es-
tabished in the government building, that
over 80, 900 was paid and issued In money
o:dels and the NUMBER of letters handled ex-
ceeded > 2,1OO,ooo
The woik Of dedication continues. Last
week it was Nebra>ka'o turn, and right brave
ly did she pass throug n the ordeal, with very
simple, yet a2propri tie c1ren ,nies. Am)ng
Nebraska's sols present WAS II IN. j. Sterling
Norton, who looks after the agricultural inter
ests of L ncle SAM
Don't leave the boys aud girls at home be
cause il is too much trouble to look after them
when here. You will be asIolished to learn
that a special building has been erected for
their exclusive use, where they can be left and
cared tor during tlI- day, AMI called for at
night.
1t is very Interesting to noie tie dill
stages of the fish Matching process As shown
in the government building. Over i'll the
fisheries building itself is an aquarium filled
with many kinds of fish, which might rightly
he termed the happy family. Give this build
in. somel ltme. Ii will doubtless interest you
Is il does scores of others.
