axle on which the great wheel turns
is a steel bar 80 inches thick and As feet

wheels in a steel hub 16 feet in diam
eter All of this great mass. the hubs
and the two circles, is held together by
2Is-inch steel rods, arranged to run out
in pairs from the axle to spread Ii feet
apart at the circumference.
There are thirty-six cars on the
wheel, each capable of comfortably
seating forty people. The cars are q
feet long, Is feet wide and . feet high,
and each one weighs Is tons.
The wheel. with its passengers,
weighs 1000 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 6 feet

In this connection we may 6tly quote
the words of the Philadelphia Ledger
in reference to the grand exhibition,
which says:
Irrespective of the historical, scien-
tific or artistic lessons it has to impart.
it is a grand exhibition. appealing to
every ones sense of beauty, and to
every ones interest in things curious.
The buildings are marvels OF archi-
tectural dignity and beauty and so vari-
Gus in their styles and so richly orna-
mented with sculptured figures as to
afford the keenest delight to the eye.
Within the beautiful structures are
tens of thousands of objects to delight
the eve or inform the mind. 1t is the
world in miniature. Some people will
be more interested in one department
than in others, but there is variety
enough to occupy all the spare time
that any busy man or woman can give
to the fair
In addition to the display of higher
arts there are extensive exhibits OF
educational methods by our leading
colleges and schools which demonstrate
the wonderful progress made in the de-
partment of learning during the last
quarter of a century. In the education
al section of the Manufactures building
are to be found these valuable and in
teresting evidences of the growth OF
knowledge in our land, and anyone that
leaves the fair without visiting this dis
play will miss one of its best features
Some of the strange costumes worn
by the foreigners at the fair occasion
considerable merriment among the
young folks. On the Midway Plaisance
the other day score of grinning youths
surrounded one of the members of the
Javanese community and held him pris-
oner for few moments while they
made sport of his clothing. The licorice-
colored victim of their curiosity stood
the joke good-naturedly as far as his
apparel was concerned, but when they
got to poking him in the ribs and STEP
ping on his toes, he rebelled and broke
through the line that surrounded him
and made his escape.
Among the most deeply-interested
visitors at the fair are number OF In
dams from a neighboring show. They
devote all their spare time to sight,
seeing among the wonders of the ''hear
big show" 1t is quite evident that
they also enjoy the public interest
which their appearance never fails to
excite. CARRIED in all the trappings OF
their wild life, they pose and parade
for the benefit of the gaping crowds
about them.

AS Prescott says in his Conquest OF
civilization in Mexico superior to their
own in all save the art of destruction,
and in the Mexican anthropologlcal
collection there are numerous remnants
of this superior civilization in antique
pieces of architecture, pottery and war
weapons, while other evidences have
been accurately reproduced from de-
tails written in descriptions given by
Cortez and his scriveners. Among the
reproductions in miniature are the tenn
pies of Xochicalco and Xicotenatl.
which were great pyramidal structures
after the Egyptian style of architec-
ture.
Besides the war shields of the
Caciques of the army of Guatomatzln,
who fought Cortez, other weapons and

After the various tower schemes Tor
the worlds fair were abandoned there
came to the front a man by the name

much ridicule on account of pet prof.

regarded IS exceedingly visionary. but
after frequent rebuffs he succeeded in
obtaining permit to put up his wheel
in the Midway Plaisance. The work
was begun last March and has just
reached successful completion and has
been put in operation.
Its highest point is a65 feet above the
surface of the earth. The diameter Is
$50 feet, and the circumference s25. the
entire thing being raised Is feet above
the ground.
In reality there are two Wheels
twins. 80 feet apart, but 1t takes
them both to make the Ferris wheel.
These twins are connected by iron rods
and struts which do not approach
nearer than 20 feet TO the periph-
ery. Outside of these rods the cars

wheel has for its outline curved iron
