NEWSPAPERS AND BOOKS.

THE Pckin Gazette is the oldest Jour
nal in the world. 1t dates from the
eighth century.
TIE earliest newspaper was pub
lished in Venice and called Ga1etta
from the name of the coin for which
it was sold.
TIE sultan of Turkey not only has a
rigid censorship of the press, but he
has ordered that no newspapers be pub
lished until the afternoon, so the CEN
sors will not have to forcgo their
morning nap in order to supervise
them.
COMPLETE translation of Dantc's
Divine Comedy was exhibited at the
Paris exhibition in 1882, the volume
being so tiny that it measured less
than half an inch square. 1t comprised
l4,32S verses and was contained in 500
pages.
THERE has been discovered n German
book printed at Philadelphia and da ted
1105, twenty years after the settlement
of Philadelphia suburb of German
town and thirty years earlier than the
date hitherto assigned to the first
printing of a German work in Phila-
GClDhia.

or as dong as they find it pleasant to

Many of them are going to stay until
Newport season opens in July, CT the
Richfield season in June And thus
social life has sprung up in Chicago
which was entirely unthought OF at the
time that the worlds fair was planned.

This social side of the worlds fs.ir is
really remarkable. For the 8rst aime

deed, 1t may safely be said, fcl the
Erst time in the world, thsre have
come together the best society .people
of all countries. And they will meet
here to fcte and be feted, dine and he
dined and enjoy all the delights sof an
extension Of hospitality upon what
might be called neutral grounds.
The society people now TN Chicago
are from all the countries On the face
of the earth. But from each OF these
countries there are n few tiiclled ;pco-
ple,' or, perhaps. only Il single couple,
who are considered sufficiently .ele-

tothe charmed circle of the worlds fl; il,

Chicago itself contributes about
twenty-five. There are, perhaps. fifty
from New York and Boston, and the
remainder come from the harvest, the
distant south and "thc otkcr,sitle''
The most pretcntious of all the
wonlds fair entertainers is Dir. Seward
Webb, with the Vanderbilt contingent
for his companions. The Seward
Webbs have come here in a special
train, and are living in three on four
private cars sidc-trackcd on Michigan
avenue, upon lines belonging TO the
Illinois Central road. In these cars
the most sumptuous entertainments
are given, and dinners are served such
ms have never been surpassed in the
best hotels in New York
When Mr.. Webb first decided TO come
TO Chicago with his family for an ex-
tended stay, his idea was to 20 10 one
of the best hotels in Chicago and en-
gage,n suite of rooms suitable for him
self and family But when the Van
derbilt daughters and son-in-l w
travel, they take with them the entire
family. And this, with The Wander
bits, dneans n great deal. There are
alwlys,ever so many children, nnmer--

ons cousins, n regiment of maids and
nurses, teachers and tutors and a fam
lily physician.
A retinnc like this takes up n great
deal of room, and the price asked at
the best Chicago hotels for space in
which to spread out according to the
Vanderbilt ideas of comfort was so
colossal that even the Vanderbilt purse
fattencd under its weight. And then
the idea of picnicing in Il private car
came into Mrs. Webb's mind like an
inspiration, and, of course, for her
thinking and wishing meant ultimate
reality
Several other families Of less social
Importance than the Webbs have at
tempted this business of living in q car.
But the people who own handsome
houses along the Lake drive. and on
any of the other slightly avenues of the
city have objected so strenuouslv to
having their view cut off by these pri-
vatc cars that nearly all have been
obliged to abandon this project. The
people on Michigan avenue went so
far as to petition the common council
not TO allow any private cars to re-
main stationary within sight of their
residences. So the Wcbbs are the only
society people permanently located in
a car, and theirs is well out of the way.
The people who are being entertained
by the Webbs are the same as are being
entertained by all the swelldom of
Chicago. Nearly all have met previous
~ at social gatherings in other cities
and in other countries and to them
The worlds fair is like charming re-
union. They never enjoyed anything
like it before. 80 cosmopolitan
they say.
The center of all the social gayety is
Palmer castle" the magnificent home
OF the Potter Palmers on Michigan
avenue. And Mrs. Potter Palmer is
the head of the social life of the castle,
just as she is the head of the official
life in the worlds fair doings She
entertains all the titled people Of any
account who visit Chicago, and She
gives every Wednesday throughout the
summer series of dinners to the Off
Gals of the worlds fair and their dis.
tinguished guests, whoever they NAV
be.
