THE WORLDS FAIR GATE.

Director Bryan Of the Exposition COM
pany has writ Ell an open letter to the ma
tional commissioners in which he difclaims
any intended disrespect to that body by the
action Of the directory In opening Jackson
Park on Sunday. His communication was
called forth by the reported denunciation
of the act by the commissioners, and
in II he accuses some Of the ma
tional commissioners who are now talking
against the opening of the fair as pro-
posed by the local directory, as having
been much more In favor Of On "open Sum
day" than any of the local directors. He
insists that the local directory acted with.
in it's power in proposing open grounds
for Sunday, with closed buildings and half
the regular price Of admission.
New Engianders Enjoying ThsmssIves.
1t is perfectly surprising how many d.
rect descendants Of New England people
there are in the west and what pride they
take in New England buildings and the
priceless historical relics and art treasures
therein. This was especially noticeable
yesterday in the Maine building, where
were gathered a party of railroad men,
who first saw the light of day on the Maine
coast They pored over the register In
the state building for half an hour, and

since the building has been open.
Some of them have not been back east
for Is years, vet they recalled many things
familiar to their earlier life. They fairly
worshipped the old relics, and there were
tears in the eyes of more than one II
there is one thing more than another which
will cause family reunions In New Eng
land this year it will be the Worlds fair
and the memories 1t recalls through it's
state buildings.
A communication was received yester-
day by Secretary Culp of the committee on
ceremonies from Adjutant General Dalton
of Massachusetts, asking that June II be
set aside as
Massachusetts Day
at the fair. Inclosed with the letter was
resolution adopted by the state Legislature
authorizing the governor to spend t12, 900

The Maine people are making extensive
preparations for the dedication Of their
