FRESH FISH.
How the Young Fry Are Matched Out In
the Government Building.

the Government Building.
You can see fish Matching by the mill
lion in the northeast corner of the Gov
eminent building, where the fish COM
mission has its display. There are
myriads of yellow and pike perch
breaking out of their tiny globular ge-
latinous eggs there every day. Some
of them are fed to the big fish in the
aquariums and some are turned loose
in the lake. The process of the fish
hatchery seems simple enough. but the
commission people want it under
stood that it took a long time to per-
feet it.
The impregnated eggs are brought
into the exhibit in big cans nearly every
day. They are put into glass jars and
slow currents of lake water at the nat
ural temperature are kept flowing
slowly through them. The eggs look
like mass of translucent jelly glob-
ules. One jar will contain as high as
45O, 900 perch eggs. 1t takes from twen-
ty days upward, according to tempera-
ture. for the eggs to hatch. Each fish
as it matches seems to consist of two
tiny black spots which are eyes and an
infinitesimal strip of gelatine, which is
the rest of the fish. They can all swim
though at great rate right from the
start, and as the young fry are drawn
off through the escape tubes of the jars
into watts that contain million or more
exceedingly fresh fish they seem to be
always on the go.
OF the eggs that are being Matched
now, those of the pike perch, known
generally as ''wall-eyed pike" come
from Lake Erie. The yellow perch
eggs come from the aquarium. Within
a few days the commission expects to be

HUNTING FOR DIAMONDS.

stone and marble exhibits of some of
the states are also entitled by their
beauty to more than a casual glance.
But the center of attraction just now
is the diamond exhibit of the Kimberly
mines of South Africa in the Mining
building. There is in the exhibit about
one hundred tons of diamondiferous
earth which is to be operated upon day
after day during the exposition season,
and the process of extracting the pre-
cious stones from the clay will be an
established feature of the fair. The
machinery used is the same as that

MONEY SPENT AT THE FAIR.
So Far 1t Hardly Comes Up to tho Es>i-
mate-The Outlook Good.

So Far 1t Hardly Comes Up to tho Ell
mate-The Outlook Good.
Much brain matter has been expended
in estimating the average amount of
money spent by visitors at the EXPOSE
ton after entering the gates. Paul
Blackmar, chief of the department of
collections, said few days ago that
while he had some figures based on the
first months returns he could not, in
justice to the exposition. give them out
until more definite average had been
arrived at.
At the opening of the fair it was Mr..
Blackmar's estimate that the average
expenditures of each visitor, exclusive
of admission fee, would be between
fifty and sixty-five cents. For the first
month. however, it is not believed that
the figures are quite so large.
The returns for May show that the
larger the attendance the smaller the
average amount spent within the gates
by each visitor. Mr.. Blackmar does
not believe that this state of affairs will
continue during the remaining months
OF the exposition.
''Our big days" he said, ''have been
holidays, when the thousands of work
ing people living in Chicago came to
the park, bringing their lunches with
them. They did not come to spend
money and had no money to spend.
When the railroads begin to bring in
excursion parties and the percentage of
people from out of the city attending
the fair grows larger. l feel sure that
the average daily expenditure of each
visitor will also grow larger. 1t is also
doubtless true that the nearer the ex-
position draws to a close the more will
people buy souvenirs and memorials of
the great fair. In this way the amount
of money spent inside the gates will be
greatly increased"
The original estimate of the depart
ment of concessions was that the expo
sition would net five million dollars as
its share of the receipts of concession
naires, and they have as yet no reason
to change it

JUNE'S FLORAL DISPLAY.

Programme for tile Month.

"Uncle John" Thorpe Provides a Fine
Programme for tile Month.
June is fine month for flowers as
as well as for weddings and will not
be ignored by "Uncle John" Thorpe
and his assistants. During the latter
part of May the great flower beds about
the big greenhouses have blossomed
with a display of pansies and tulips
that have challenged the admiration OF
observers.
This month the pansies will be in ali
their glory. Tulips will be about out,
but there are many other flowers to
take their place. Peonies will be out
in the greatest profusion. The big red
and white blossoms will make the
flower beds about the greenhouses look
like natural carpets. On the wooded
island all the hardy towering plants
will be in bloom and that will be the
prettiest spot in the fair grounds.
Roses will not be forgotten. nor will
they be missed in the floral display for
the month. The great variety of the
flower affords an opportunity for I'M
commonly fine displays, and the chances
will be made the most of. Designs will
be worked out in them, and the display
i'll be literally ''acres of roses
Rhododendrons are flowers of great
beauty and adaptibility for display
work. and they will be found by theii
admirers in profusion. So will the
campanulas, pretty, beil-shaped blue
flowers. So far no particular displays
have been arranged for special days,
but later such plans will be matured.
All in all, the floral features for the
month of June will be Upexcelled dur
ing the time of the fair. it will be the
mouth par excellence for lovers of
nature in flowers and foliage to go to

Oriental Paintings That Were Recently
Opened to the Public.
The opening of the japanese exhibit
in the Palace of Fine Arts a few days
ago drew great many people, who
went away delighted as well as aston
ished at what they saw.
The entrance to the exhibit is guarded
on one side by great bronze eagle, on
the other by bronze cast of protect
ing deity. A bas-relief of dragons in
clouds, done in bronze, stands Just be-
yond, and near by is representation
of the Kasaka pagoda, an exquisite
piece of carving. At the entrance
hangs magnificent tapestry of sIken
chrysanthemums, and painting of
carps by Tukok, greatest of Japanese
artists.
There are several landscapes, quiet
and restful, in black and white, the
finest being by Hashimoto Gaho. Fish
and birds predominant, and there is one
magnificent tiger
magnificent bronze is that OF a
stump with rooster perched uponit,
while on the ground beside it is the old
hen with her brood. The long tail
feathers in bronze are supple enough to

to the bronze fowl

couldn't make away with any of it if
they wanted to, as there are always
plenty of lynX-eyed guards about. but
it seems strange that SO much loose
wealth does not attract more attention
than it does.

THE WASHING MACHINE.

The big machines are run by Zulus. who
are brought from the mines for the pur-
pose of demonstrating the workings.
These savages are dressed in short
trousers only. They refuse to wear
anything else, and under these they
have their native trousers, if such they
can be called.
The method of cleaving the diamonds
to prepare them for cutting is shown by
skilled workmen, and then the dia-
monds are polished after being cut. All
the processes are carried OF in full
view of the audience, for whose es-
pecial benefit elevated platforms have
been erected about the machinery.
Thus the production of diamonds, from
the mining of the blue earth in which
the native gems lie imbedded to the last
touch given the polished crystal, will be
shown.
The gigantic Zulus who are constant
" on guard over the exhibit are in
themselves something wonderful to be-
hold. One of them, called big JIM"
is great chief who participated in the
late Zulu war. He is a man-killer, If
reports be true, and would most
likely make it interesting for any
night prowler who undertook to tres
pass upon his preserves. From the
waist up these natives of the cape are
clad only with bears claws, strung
about their necks, but the neither por-
ton of their costumes is suggestive of
an acquaintance with some American
'Cheap John" clothing establishment.
1t does not take the rude, untuto1 ed
child of nature long to get into the
swim when he comes to Chicago.
In case that is guarded by the Zu-
lus is a collection of what might be
taken for ordinary crystals, but which
in reality are diamonds in the rough,
aggregating in value somewhere near
one million dollars. The clay that is

below place two shelves with the OPP
posite corners rounded off.
Molding of any kind or drapery poles
can be used to finish off the rough
edges left on the sides of the drawer
fronts. A neat railing can be placed
on top of the two small drawers.
The whole may be ornamented &C
cording to the taste of the maker.
Pressed wood ornaments can be found
at hardware or lumber dealers. Brass
drawer rings of any design may be-
added in place of knobs.
The little white wood used in making
the sideboard is to be stained with ma

the mahogany brings out the fms
grain, and the whole makes a piece Of
furniture worthy to grace any dining.

dirt, washing it and getting the dirt

This is indeed a wonderful sight and

diamonds but have never had an oppor-
tunity of witnessing the operation.

not inexpensive, and really good one
is costly. The bureau we have in mind
has the material for making a perfectly
acceptable sideboard, at an insignifi-
cant expense. The bureau has four wide
drawers, and upon the top two other
small drawers. 1t is surmounted with
a blackboard with some design of SCROLL
work.
The first thing to be done is to re-
move the fronts of the three lower
drawers carefully. When this has been
done replace the remaining parts of
the drawers into their respective
places, for they are to be used as
shelves for dishes. The top drawer in
the main part of the bureau is left for
the use of table linen.

fronts of the drawers removed. A brass

board. If you choose doors you must
now make another search in the store
room, where perhaps you will find the
head or footboard of an old-time rope
bedstead. If you are successful you
will probably find that the footboard
has two panels, which can be sawed
into and evened off at the ends and
will make very neat doors, and will
save the expense of having them made.
If they are not quite wide enough to
fill the open space in front of the
drawers, a piece of wood about two
inches wide placed between the doors
and nailed on to the shelves will hold
the catches of the doors.
The sideboard may be made lower
by saving off the legs if too high. Claw
feet add to the beauty of it.
