and Amazed Beyond
Expression at its
Gorgeousness.

CHICAGO. June S.-Sheba's fai
.queen on the occasion of her histori,
visit to the court of Solomon was no
more amazed at the oriental splendol
maintained by that monarch than wa
Maria Eulalia, Infanta of Spain, thii
morning when she made her first visi,
to the "White City" in jackson park.
The grandeur of the glistenine
white palaces, temples of art and
science, stored with wonders of human
ingenuity and the wondrous size OF
these beautiful structures, was such,
that, from the time the royal guest
entered the gates until she arrived al
the Administration building, her face
wore the expression of one lost in
amazement.
1t was a beautiful day. The
"White City" never looked more at
tractive and the buildings never ap-
peared at better advantage. Flags OF
every nation were waving gorgeous
colors in the bright sunlight and
thousands of gay streamers floated joy
ously in the gentle breeze.
The air was filled with charming
music from scores of bands. scattered
about the grounds. Long before the
hour Of arrival of the princess and her
encourage, the roadway, over which she
was to pass, was lined on either side
by thousands upon thousands of peo-
pie, eagerly waiting to catch glimpse
of her royal highness, and the grand
plaza around the Administration
building was black with a surglng
mass of humanity. AT II o'clock the
board of admissions estimated that
there were over 100000 people on the
grounds when the princess arrived.
BEHOLD THE PRINCESS
Carriages bearing the princess and
party arrived at the entrance of the
plaisance shortly before II
o'clock.
ia Inc first carriage were Princess
Eulalia, her royal consort, Prince
and Mayor Carter H. Har-
rison. The rest of the party followed
in carriages.
A mounted platoon of the park po-
lice preceded the carriages and the
Chicago Huzzars acted as escort.
As the procession entered the plias-
ance a mighty cheer rent the air from
the tens of thousands Of human threats,
that fairly made the buildings tremble,
while the bands in the various pavil-
lions with one accord began to play.
As the royal party entered the
plaisance they were met by the com.
mittee on ceremonies. The process
sion then started down the Midway
Plaisance the cadets of the Michigan
Military academy closing up the rear.
STRANGE SIGHTS.
There were strange sights seen
along the midway. Savages of the
Dahomeyan village, the Barbarians
from the Chinese theatre and inhabi-
tants of the streets of Cairo and the
other quaint and queer resorts, were
all out to see the princess and all were
attired in the fantastic costumes of
their native lands.
As the party moved along, each of
the different natiOnalities did homage
to her royal highness after the manner
Of their country and at each group of
heathens and barbarians the princess
was greeted by music quite as fantas-
tic as the costumes of the heathens
and barbarians. The procession
moved east on the plaisance to the
fair grounds. Here it turned
south along the east side
of the Woman's building, the Festival
ball, Horticultural building to the
Golden Gate of the Transportation
building. Turning eastward here, the
procession moved to the street passing
between the Electricity and Mining
buildings when it turned south to the
building.
On reaching the administration
building, the guests were escorted to
President Palmer's reception room.
The entire company then repaired to
the breakfast room in pavilion &c"
At the conclusion of breakfast the
royal party were escorted to Mrs.
Palmers reception rooms in the
Woman's building where they were
received by a reception committee Of
the board OF lady managers. The
Spanish display there Was then visited.
The other parts of the Exposition
we're then visited and the princess was
driven back to her apartments in the
Palmer House.
