VERY FEW VISITORS.
The Worlds Fair Opened on Sunday
With Indifferent Success.


The Worlds Fair was spaa to the public
on Sunday, again, in obedience to Judge
Stems injunction-that is, the gates were
open-but they might as we'll haze been
closed. for tie public did not seen. to care TO
take advantage OF the fact. Not since the
Fair was opened has the at.en dance been so
light. The grounds. Midway Pia:sance and
all. were practically y deserted.
The total attendance up to , o'c.ocE, in
cludinS employees and concassu2aires. was
scarcely ten thousand, and tbs, officials at
the Bureau OF Admissions did not think the
total for the entira Gay and evening would
run more than twalye thousand.
The grounds had much the same appear
ance az they had when the gates were
closed. Nearly all the State buildings
were closed. and 30 were many Of the S:ruc-
lures conta aiming exhibits. and in the nuild-
inSs that we're open q large portion Of the
exhibits were covered IN so they could not
be seen. All the restaurants, cigar stands
and drinking water fountains were closed.
There was no attempt On the pat OF the
Worlds Fair management &c make things
attractive 70 visitors beyond the beauty and
grandeu. Of the White Uty itself There
were no religious eXec .iSss, aad many OF the
shows along the Midway Pla.sanco had
placar3s tacSed up announcing to the few
struggling visitors that there would be no
performances. Tne patronage was hardly
large enough to pgy RAINING expenses.

FAIR DIRECTORS FINED.
Guilty Of Contempt for Closing the
Fair OH Sunday.

Judge Stein, Of the Superior Court Of Chi
cago, decided that .he Worlds Fair Directors
and officers who had been directly responsible
for closing the Exposition gates Sunday,
July 90, had violated the injunction granted
in the Clinyman petition. and were conse-
quently guilty OF contempt.
He ordered that Directors Gage, Hutchin-
son, Henrotin, McNally and kerfoot should
be fined $1,000 each and stand committed TO
Jail until the fine was paid.
In the case Of Director Victor F. Lawson,
the Court held that the officer had voted in
belief that the Injunction had lspsed and was
not Intentionally guilty. In view ofthjs miti-
eating circumstance a fine Of 800 was inn
posed. Director General George R. Davis
was held less directly responsible and was
fined $3.50 with the same provision regarding
payment.
Messrs. Massey, Forbes, st. Clair and Hig-
intotham were regarded by Judge Stein as
instruments for the execution OF the Direct
ors' ruling, and were discharged. Attorney
Eddy, representing the Fair Company, moved
for an appeal from the Courts ruling, which
Judge Stein granted. The Directors and
other officers were all in court.

Other Notes of Interest.
Java village in Midway Piaisance hos been
rightfully classed among the meritortous ell
terprises and exhibits at the Worlds Fair.
Situated in the most prominent section OF
this truly wonderful street. and covering O
stretch OF ground only equaled By one other
concessionaire, the buildings OF the little
people from the Eastern Archipelago have
for months attracted the attention and ad-
miration of the thousands of people who
daily travel over the white road. The pro-
moters OF the enterprise had two motives in
view when they accepted the invitation ofthe
United States Government to exhibit at the
Worlds Fair the resources OF the island and
the customs and manners OF the people.
The first was to make a vigorous effort to
introduce into the United States the de-
Iicious and unadulterated coffee and tea
grown upon the big estates OF the island.
The other motive was to show 20 the people
Of other countries visiting the Fair the GUS

the village was to be constructed, or in the
equipment OF 125 natives with the parapher-
MALTA necessary for 4 correct representation
OF their dances, religious ceremonies and
athletic sports. Like the coffee and tea sold
in the bamboo house in tho center OF the
colony, there is nothing in the construction
Of the village that is not genuine. Every
house is built of native woods and grasses,
and was first set up in Java before its remov-
al to Chicago Then. too, native workmen
put the buildings together without the use
OF ten pounds Of nails. One OF the striking
features OF the village is the theatre-the
largest and by fa- the best appo onted IL Mid
way The performances are OF q most re-
fined character, and provoke hearty demon
strat;ons of approval. The orchestra is com.
posed OFFS score Of natives, who wenr red
jackets and sit in tiers back Of the perform
ers. The music is delightfully."- weird, the
mellow boom OF the great gongs and the
measured rattle Of the xylophoncs breaking
melodious upon the ear. Among the per-
formers are sweet-saced girls from the royal
theatre OF the late Sultan Of Solo, and from
the households of native chieltains in the
