which holds them together. Tho
axle on which the great wheel turns
is q steel bar 80 inches thick and IS feet
long. 1t is fastened to each Of the twin
wheels in steel hub 16 feet in diam

and the two circles, is held together by
219-inch steel rods, arranged to run out
in pairs from the axle to spread Is. feet
apart at the circumference.
There are thirty-six cars on the
wheel, each capable of comfortably
seating forty people. The cars are ~

and each one weighs Is tons.

weighs 1900 tons. The whole thing
rests on two pyramidal towers at the
axis. The towers are 40 feet high,
40 by so feet at the base and feet
square at the top. Each tower has 4
feet resting on 20-foot' cube concrete
foundations. Underneath these are
crossbars of steel. The motive power
comes from 1,OO0-horse power steam
engine under the wheel. 1t will find no
difficulty in revolving the wheel and
the passengers as FAST as the latter
want to go. There is brake on, how
ever, to regulate the speed and stop
everything in case of danger. The

cry passing over q chain that looks

HOT SPRINGS, SOUTH DAKOTA.

What Hon. Samuel w. AlleFton Thinks of
The Hon. Samuel w. Allerton, the noted
capitalist Of Chicago, arrived over the Bur-
linRton Route few days since, and during an
interview with ''Star' reporter said: 'sYou
people do not begin to realize what you have
here in these wators. have had the oppor-
tunity Of travelling some over the United
States and have visited . great number Of
its health resorts with springs which are
claimed to have medicinal properties, but, in
my opinion, you have water here that il su-
perior to anything In this whole country, II
not in tho world, for the cure OF rheumatic
attention was first called to these springs
by m intimate friend, Mr.. Spencer, who
owns . large cattle ranch west of here. He
had . man on his ranch that was 50 badly
afflicted with rheumatism that he was hauled
here In helpless condition. He was bathed
and he went homo entirely cured up, and
resolved that If ever had rheumatism
in my family, would try Hot Springs, South
Dakota. We brought Mrs. Allerton here
No soon ~ she was able to come ut all and
have found that all Mr.. spencer said in
waters has been realized in my wife's case
She says she feels - though she has just
been turned loose from Q prison where she
had been called upon to endure excruciating
torture.every joint and muscle racked
with pain % that life was burden. No,
think Hot SPRING. future is . grand one
Its air is pure and wholesome, its scenery
lively and inspiring; sleep comes without
any effort. and it is just the place for rest
and building up . shattered constitution.
You do not talk enough about the value of
your waters for skin troubles. /, myself,
received great benefit from them last year
in . short visit there. Your climate makes
you infinitely superior to the Arkansas Hot
Springs, and in country where so many
thousand are afflicted with Rheumatism and
other kindred ailments, if your advantages
are made known, there is no question but
that you will become the foremost health
resort in the United States. We are de-
lighted with our trip here and what your
waters have done for US and will make fire.

Thirty thousand bits of crystal 90 to
make up the bulb. The expert and
eight assistants were six weeks putting
the bits together. Through this glass
flash the most powerful electric burn-
ers. Here is q base of dazzling scintil-
lations, q column of ever-changing
color, an apex Of fire. OF the twenty
four thousand horsepower which the
management has provided for the en-
tire fair, seventeen thousand horse
power is set apart for the manufacture
of electricity for various purposes The
pillar of light eats up electrical energy
at the rate of fifteen hundred horse
power. Before this pillar stood the
man, plain farmer, when the current
was turned on. He saw that eighty
feet of solid brilliancy blaze out and
then die away. He stood as if chained.
Once or twice he put his hand to his
face Somebody who saw he was
peculiarly affected started to speak to
him. He raised his arms and with q
terrible yell fell forward on his face.
Two guards picked him up Shouting
ut the top Of his voice he started ON q
wild race over dynamos and wires and
motors. Five guards caught him and
overpowered him. All the way to the
station he fought and snsu..d. Then
he became calm. IN tell you how, It
was, he said. Somebody has stuck bot

How true this story is we cannot say,
but the spectacle referred to is enough
TO dazzle anyone, and when the wires
are manipulated, rs they arc in mest
wonderful fashion, the effect is simply
paralyzing IN its magniacence.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, whe live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectuafly cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and feveIb
and permanently curing constipation.
It has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is maR-
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being we'll informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

open their eyes, and the entertainment
they received here in our wild and
woolly west was such as to afford
them q fruitful topic for discussion
when they return to the palatial halls
of their ancestors.
Many prominent men and women Of
our own country have come and gone
and every one of them has left with the
impression that nothing was lacking to
make of the fair complete success.
And the impression was no mistaken
one, to judge from the later reports
from official sources. Everything points
to good interest on worlds fair stock
just at present, and there is little likeli-
hood of any falling off in the receipts
during the remainder of the fair season.

Of the fair Is the singing chorus Of

csrefnlly trained BY Prof. Tomlins, of
Chicago. Their childish voices make

to feel proud Of It, for It is undoubtedly
ono ct the finest ever gotten together.

say that in the opinion Of all, both
high and low, who have seen. the fair It
10 the greatest, grandest exhibition the
world has ever seen. H.
The royal visitors from abroad have
been astounded at the magnitude and
grandeur of the enterprise. They had
heard great deal about It and were
prepared to find 9. pretty big show here
in Chicago, but when their eyes beheld
the splendor Of the White City great
was their surprise and admiration.
They were still further surprised
when they visited our great city. AL
though they had passed through some
of the older cities of the east they
found much in Chicago to make them
