WHAT IT'LL COST.
Calculate How Long You Can Afford
to Stay at the Worlds Fair.

In answer to the many inquiries from
boards of trade and similar bodies con.
cerniDg the alleged plan to demand ex.
tortioDate prices for accommodations in
Chicago next summer, Major w. Marsh
Kasson, at the request of the Director.
General, has prepared the following re.
port from the bureau of public comfort
This bureau has been established by
the Worlds Columbian Exposition to co.
operate, through its hotels and rooming
departments, to the best of its ability,
with the citizens of Chicago for the com
fort and protection of visitors, to secure
for them suitable and desirable lodging
at fair and reasonable rates.
The management is keenly alive to the
fact that thousands of visitors will be de.
tered from visiting the city unless they
can be fully assured on this point, hence
every effort is being made to realize sat.
isfactory results in this direction.
Inquiries were sent out some time ago
to let to learn, as far as possible, prices
that would be expected therefor, and the
following statement gives the general
average quotations received in reply, to
cover accommodation for over 10000
people in the best part of the city lying
between North avenue and Seventy.
ninth street
Price OF rooms per day without board ::
Single room, single bed, one person,
$135.
Double room, double bed, one person,
1912; two persons, $2.7O.
Double bedded room, two double beds,
two persons, $3.50
Double. bedded room, two double beds,
three persons, AIS.
Double. bedded room, two double beds,
four persons, $3.50
There certainly does not seem, accord
ing to these figures, to be any indication
that citizens of Chicago will demand ex-
cessive rates for the accommodation OF
visitors to the Exposition, and they can
be relied upon to sustain the good repu-
tation of Chicago for fair and liberal
treatment of its guests. One publ hing
house has pamphlet nov in press con
tanning list of over 10000 places in the
city Of Chicago where furnished rooms
can be had at moderate rates. The prices
given above do not include large first.
class hotels nor prominent new buildings
in course of erection in the vicinity OF
Jackson Park. Many mischievous rumors
alleging the likelihood of high prices and
extortion generally have been originated
by persons interested in outside board
ing.house schemes, some of them ap
parently irresponsible and even frandu
lent. The great mass of visitors viii
doubtless prefer the quiet and economy
of furnished rooms such as alluded to
and apartment hotels, arranging to tak'
their meals from day to day wherever i
may suit their convenience. 1t is esti
mated that from $4,000 to 100000 people
can be served daily with meals within
the Exposition grounds alone while th'
number OF hotels and restaurants is con
stantly increasing.

GRAND OPERA HOUSE.


 The attraction offered ths first three days this week Is Louis De Lange and Will S. Rising in their new successful and jolly comedy Tangled Up." It is said to be of the best plays of it's kind, and which comes with the strongest en- dorsement of the critics of other cities. It will also be a notable engagement, it introduces two stars, but old favorites Louis De Lange and Will S. Rising have starred jointly for three seasons in Tangled Up," and judging from the fattering testimonials to their work, were en- inently successful. Mr. De Lange will best be remembered for his clever and artistic work in the leading roles of the repertoire of Aronson's company, and he is said to be equally successful in comedy work of 8 legitimate nature, and to rank with tho best comedians on the stage.
 Will S. Rising Is an artist of great ability, and one of the most popular actors before the public. He is an exceedingly graceful actor, and has for comic opera companies, McCaull, Duff, and Aron- sons, and will be pleasantly remembered for his fine stage presence, and his sweet and sympa- thetic tenor voice. He was the leading light comedian with Lotta. and his success in light comedy roles induced him to give up the operatic for the dramatic stage. and fairly divides honors with bis clever partner.

Saturday the Opening Day for Secur- ing Seats-A Great Crowd and Friendly Rivalry for Place in Line Matinee Decided Upon.
 Saturday was the opening day for eI-
 changing the Masonic benefit tickets for reserved seat cheeks, and the excitement around the Hyperion box office recalls the rush attending the opening of Stoddard's lectures last year. There wac no limit as to number, and several hsnded in thirty
 and forty tickets to be exchanged for num- bered seats without extra charge. It soon became apparent that tho evening perform ance could not ace ommodate all the ticket holders, and MT. Bunnell immediately tele :: egrsphed MT. Hoyt to prepare for S mati- nee of "A Temperance Town" next Satur- day afternoon. Ticket holders can take their choice to which entertainment they will attend. Mir. Bunnel1 thinks he will have his theater as cool and comfort able as terrace garden. For this occasion he proposes to have everything thrown open that will make circulation-doors, side exits, windows, transoms, skylights, etc. Said MT. Bunnell: "I can see by the
 advance sale that MT. Hoyt's comedy will
 bs witnessed by representative people, and
 I want to make the occasion 8 red-letter
 day in the history of the Hyperion"
 During the week tickets may be procured
 at the offices of the various lodges, at

LAST EVENINGS FIRE.

A Barn in the Rear of Hnl Street De.
 stroyed-Richard Connor of Truck l
 IDjured-Loss $25O.
 About 6:35 last evening fire broke out in barn in the rear of the "hying horses tent on Commerce street. The barn was used by Poli, the proprietor of the Eden Musee theatre, but the horse was got out all right. The roof was torn of the barn and the building was practically destroyed. The loes will amount to about $250. Richard Connor of Truck was struck by 6 hook while engaged in tearing off the roof. It inflicted severe wound between his eyes. He was taken to Dr. O. Purdy Lindsey where the wound was sewed up. The property was owned by Coroner Mix. It is not known how the fire originated, but 1t is said to have been slumberipg for some time before 1t was discovered.
