CHICAGO. June 9-To the great dismay
Of the few self-styled aristocrats and the
extreme delight of the people at the
grounds, the Infanta Eualia went to the
Worlds Fair to-day without any military
escort or other fuss. Shortly after noon,
without warning. the Princess suddenly
announced that she was going to take in
the fair lust like the Americans do"
Commander and Mrs. Davis. Mrs. Curry.
wife of the ex- minister to Spain, and Mr.
and Mrs. Chatfeld- Tailor accompanied
her, the party going out on private steam
| yacht. AT the entrance to the grounds
they embarked in gondola and went
through the lagooDs to the Woman's build
ing. where an informal lunch was had in
The cafe.
Then some one suggested visit to the
| Manufacturers building. and some one
else to the fine arts galleries, but the
Princess laughngly declared that she pre-
ferred to-day to take in Midway Piasance,
of which she had heard so much. So to
the Plaisance they went, unheralded and
almost unnoticed. All the attractions
were visited. the Princess declaring she
was in no way fatigued; but, on the con-
trary, was delighted with the fun she had
been having. When it came time to re-
turn TO the city, the Infanta was 10th to
leave the grounds, declaring that she never
had better time in her life.
Tomorrow she will again visit the fair,
but this time it will be a visit OF ceremony.
The Bureau of Admissions announced this
evening that 169.016 visitors paid admis-
sions TO the fair yesterday. and that other
admissions would bring the attendance TO
nearly 100000.

tanned at the residence of Mrs. Potter
Palmer in Lake Shore drive. All the

cials leads to an estimate of 5000 to
100000 strangers in the city for the pur-
pose Of visiting the fair. and advices from
outside indicate the number will be tripled
