LIKE AN ORIENTAL DREAM,
Tho Gorgeous Spectacle Of the Fair at
Night.


Night
CHICAGO, May 13.-Despits q chilly wind
and leaden sky visitors were not frightened
from the fair grounds this morning, but
came in such hordes till noon, when the
wind died away and the sun oame out II
was estimated that some sixty thoussnd
visitors were on the grounds. A noticeable
feature was the number of school children
who. taking advantage Of the weekly holi-
day. paid a visit to the fair.
attendance of the centennial and the pres
ent exposition was Rratitied to-day BY the
publication of official figures. which show
that the attendance at the Worlds fair
during the frat eleven days was nearly 219.-
900 e. greater than the centennial at corre-
spondinp period.
The white city was transformed tonight
into city of rainbow tint. Plans for the
htst complete illumination were perfected
and the spectacle far surpassed anything of
the sort ever attempted. Nearly all who
came out during the day remained for the
evening display, and &c many moro came in
tho evening that the attendance of the day
WAS nearly doubled.
Al eight O'Clock the electric light was
turned on and lightning flashes swept along
the ewes Of the grand buildings that line
| beautiful main basin. the fountains threw
falns ribbons OF spray through the mist OF
| rainbow tint and the cascade from the
main fountain was transformed into rest
less stairway OF amethyst and gold.
Viewed from the west front Of The peristyls
the whole was as gorgeous a. an oriental
dream.
The national commissioners had . lively
discussion to-day over the action of the
local directors in ordering the fair opened
on Sundays. When the commissioners met
President Higinbothsm submitted report
OF the action Of tho local directors. After
dozen or moro commissioners expressed
their views the matter was referred TO the
committee on judiciary.
