The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1893-05-22

PicturesqueneSS breaks loose in the JaE
nese and South Sea island villages Here
the Nautch girls dance and dazzle, and
snake charmers from the palace of the
Sultan of lahore are in their snakey glory
The Japanese bazar is trping to do big
ger trade than the French cider press at
which the more or less pretty Normandy
peasant girls, in bright-colored costumes
and quaint headdresses, are serving
fresh and hard apple Juice on demand.
For pretty girls the dudes are safe to 90
to Lady Aberdeen's Irish village. Surely
there never was more fascinating com
pany of colleens. There are more pretty
girls selling Venetian glass
is The Hungarian cafe the Hungarian
band most inspiring band, charms the
ear while the best wine in Europe is
served at polished tables
Taking anot Ter turn we may look in
upon the Algerian and Tunisian village.
Not only the North African costumes, but
the street architecture is very cleverly
shown. The Algerian dancing girls are
richly dressed. Their feet are pinched
into little high heeled shoes They wear
gold anklets and other barbaric trinkets
as accOmpaniments to ample costumes of
satin and gauze. Some of the dances will
seem rather radical, unless you have seen
them in Paris or in Algiers itself.
Another remarkable realistic village is
the Cairo street Once under the gate
way opening in the main avenue Of the
plaisance the visitor has little difficulty
IN fancying himself in the Nile town. The
little latticcd windows, the baZars, the
drinking shops the vendors and must
clans are all ingeniOusly calculated to APP
peal to the imagination and the pocket
book There are not less than $50 Egyp-
tians in this imitation of a section Of the
khedive's domain. Donkeys and donkey
boys mingle with the crowd of magicians,
priests and sightseers.
Near at hand are the Persian bazar, the
Moorish palace, the Austrian village and
the Chinese theater. The Chinese play,
which is now on, will last until next Mo-
vember, with rests only for sleep and re-
freshmen, so that nobody need be afraid
of not being in time to see all they want
of it. The play is guaranteed to be genu-
inc in all particulars.
have said nothing of the Hindoos, who
reVel in scarlet and look mystic. There
are only seven Of them, but they are tall
and make as great show as twice the
number of any other people.
This is but a glance at the plaisance.
It is inexhaustible.
Turning to the side shows that are not
in the plaisance itself we must remem-
Der the Esquimau village. The scatter
ing of little tea houses are side shows II
they do not cost an admission fee. it
costs something to get out OF them, winch
amounts TO the same thing.
North of the fair grounds is the great
SPRAYING spectatOrium, another very
yankee thing for in this big theater the
proprietors Guido all the little games Of
the modern stage to date. We have had
tanks, but the spGctatorium has real
rivers More than this, it goes in for
real everything II has real rocks,
real trees. II has sun and a
moon that can bewilder a prize astrono-
mer. OF course there will be real people
on the stage-plenty of them; and they
will charge real money TO get in. Every
thing is as real as any reasonable person
could ask, and after this apOtheOsis of
realism and tank drama must so and
hide its head
Buffalo Bill has attacked the situation
In the same spirit. He had a Wild West
before it and captured America and Eu-
rope This TING, says Bill, we have a
Wild World. And Bill does it. There
are Indians, three bands Of Sioux or more,
but there are wild people from other
parts Of the world, not to mention German
guards, French chasseurs and Cossacks.
The train robbing the international
races, the "whistling dancers and tho
tsure shots" arc all In Codys most bril-
liant vein.
Buffalo Bits show Is one Of the few
shows outside the fair grounds that are
really going 70 make any money this year.
