ings now unfinished, and those states
unrepresented by buildings have ex-
.hibits in the large buildings of the fair.
Among the latter is Oregon, whose fair
appropriation was made at so late a
date that it was decided sjmpracticab BILE
to attempt the erection of building.
The state, however, is very creditably
represented in the various department
buildings of the exposition.
Just at present the weather is very
warm and we are having foretaste of
what we may expect during the heat of
the midsummer days. Several cases of
prostration have resulted from injudi-
cious exposure on the part of too eager
sightseers, and the patrol wagons of the
police department have been called
into requisition to convey the victims
of inordinate curiosity to the hospital
With one thing and another the
police of the fair have been kept pretty
busy since the opening day, although
the number of crimes committed in the
grounds has been surprisingly small.

magnitude of our institutions and the
progress of our country. There will
no doubt be greatly increased at
tendance during the first week of July,
in view of the grand sights programmed
for the Fourth. The excursions have
begun to come in and the floating pop
ulation of our great city is daily in
creasing. In reference to the coming
celebration one of our leading dailies
contains this glowing outburst:
Fourth of July at the fair will be a
roarer. All the contrivances known to
pyrotechnic. art, all the eloquence OF
hundred orators, all the music of a hun
dred bands, all the huzzas and hurrahs
of million lungs will be united in a
patriotic din such as the world has
never heardSsaIt will begin at sunrise
and last the day out, and all the fiery
glory of Bunker Hill and Concord and
Lexington will be magnified hundred
fold as national demonstration of the
fact that American liberty is as sure
and safe as the granite ribs of its noun
tains. The declaration of independence
will be read in twenty tongues from
galleries and parapets and Platforms
while all the tribes, from shaving Turks
to barbarous Dahomans, unite in cheers
for the success and everlastingness of
the giant republic.
The exposition people now have all
shoulders at the wheel, and with the
brilliance of the dedication to eclipse
they have planned along leviathan
lines. The greatest day in American
history deserves the greatest celebration
that money and brains can devise at the
hands of the greatest enterprise the
country ever witnessed All the men
who make such occasions business
have been called into council that the
visiting nations may understand how
numerously and noisily loyal this free
people is. From dawn until the next
daylight there will be such a bewilder-
ing confusion of booming and such a
binding display of fire and such deaf
ening roar of patriotic airs that the
whole world will be convinced that this
whole people is as loyal to the old dec
laration as were the embattled farmers
who fought for it.
The programme for the day has been
outlined and it is replete with interest
ing features from beginning to end.
The evening will be made grandly
gorgeous by all the arts of which pyro-
technical genius is master, the figures
to be presented being those of most
prominence in the history of our inde-
pendence as nation.
The people of the various states hav-
ing representative buildings at the fair
have been having great times within
the past few days. Indiana, California
and Texas have just completed their ex-
hibits and have done the opening
honors in magnificent style. More nota-
BILE than the others is probably the Cal
ifornia building, on account Of the
magnitude of its dimensions and the
variety and volume of its contents.

AMONG THE EXHIBITS.

THOUSANDS of flags are used in the
decoration of the Woman's building at
the worlds fair, and many of these
have been sent by clubs or private indi-
viduals, who have their names en-
broidered in the corner; and these flags
are to be returned to the lenders as
souvenirs of the fair.
The presents which Gen. Grant re-
celved on his trip around the world,
and turned over to Mr.. Vanderbilt in re-

closed the door softly behind. Crane
led us across the road back and we set
off at quick pace through the fog in
unbroken silence.
When we were clear of the square,
Crane stopped, took the girl in his
arms, and crying: "Thank God! my
Aggie!" burst into tears
The instinct which had guided Crane
infallibly earlier in the day now failed
him, and we lost our way hopelessly;
but we did not care. 1t was five o'clock
when the three of us got to Weldon's.
The lovers spent that evening in the
drawing-room, and saw little of them.
The peril of Mrs.. Folgates position
made absolute secrecy still imperative.
Next morning | met Crane at break

Folgate, whom Mrs. Weldon had for
hidden to leave her room, as she was
suffering from nervous prostration, but
that he owed me debt he could never
pay. was leaving by an early train
for the west, and he promised to write
to me as soon as news had been heard
of Mrs Folgate.
-Four days later got letter saying
that Mrs. Folgate had been released
unharmed and that there would be
some reference to the affair in the Lon
don papers that day or the day after.
Next morning the newspapers had an
account of the clever Illustration by
the Vienna police of a daring and gigan-
tic attempt to swindle the. banks OF
that city by man calling himself
Count Wolinski, who with half dozen
accomplices was arrested just as they

perfection and were about to put 1t in
operation.
/ 'The plot, said the Vienna dispatch,
twas one of the most daring ever de-
signed, and among other of the means
used by the swindlers to mislead was
the fact that letters for their basis OF
operation (London) were addressed to

most select West End squares"
few months after received cards
and wedding cake, which assured me
that all had gone well with the young
people, but from that day to this have
not seen Crane or Mrs. Crane, who

A very good story is told of the duke
of York in illustration of his tact with
men under his command as well as his
capacity to read character. When in
command of the Thrush on the West
Indian station, bluejacket belonging
to another ship, who was constantly in
trouble, was brought on board pris.
oner for conveyance to his place OF
punishment. On the way the prince
came to the conclusion that the fellow
had good stuff in him, and he petitioned
the admiral to allow the man to be
transferred to the Thrush after he had
endured his penalty. The admiral
doubted the wisdom of the request, but
he allowed the prince to have his way.
When the man came on board he was
brought before his royal highness, who
informed him that he would have a
clean sheet for past offenses and be put
in the first class for leave. The man
had not been on leave for year, and
he was naturally amazed when the
prince further informed him that he
might go ashore at once, and presented
him with sovereign, as his money had
been stopped. His commander told
him that he would trust to his honor
not to break his leave or misspend his
money, and that his future was in his
own hands. The experiment was per-
haps hazardous one, but it succeeded,
and the man was transformed into an
active and well-behaved seaman, and
soon obtained promotion. n.-Pall Mall

There have been some great days at
Jackson park since the fair opened, but
the greatest day in all probability that
the White City will see will be Ameri-
can day, July next. A few days ago
Germany had her day, and it was
grandly and enjoyably celebrated by
the Germans of the city. There were
nearly quarter of million people in
the grounds on that occasion, and Ger
mania was the recipient of distinguished
honors, but on the Fourth of July
we expect to see a celebration which
will outshine anything of the kind ever
held in this country, Centennial day
not excepted
This is, of course, as it should be.

ITO begin at the beginning, visitors
should bathe before coming to the fait.
They will be SO refreshed by the bath
that they will be well prepared for

before leaving home, prudently, Of
course, and while on the grounds should
eat. They should not wander around
all day on one meal, as exhaustion is
altogether likely to attend such long
fasting
Coming to the fair men and women
should wear light clothing or clothing
suitable to the weather, and on a warm,
oppressive day they should pay atten-
ton to their footwear, wearing light
and easy shoes Headgear should ba

this respect, and the men should wear
light hats, and when in the shade
should remove them frequently.
But above all, visitors should be
careful about what they drink. The
water used is of the utmost Importance
and none but pure water should be-
used. Moderate drinking should be in

attends to his case with promptness
and dispatch. Since the cessation of
building operations there have been but
few accidents to workmen, the only
death reported for long time occur
ring few days ago.
This was very distressing case. One
OF number of men who were working
near the roof of the Manufactures
building lost his hold and fell one hun
dred and seventy feet to the floor be-
low A great many visitors were in the
building at the time, and they beheld
sight which unnerved the strongest of
them and caused number of women
to faint. The poor man was dashed
nto shapeless mass and never re-
gained consciousness.
The hospital service at the fair is ex-
cellent in every respect and through
its agency many broken limbs have
been restored and much suffering has
been alleviated. The provisions for
caring for the children is another fea-
ture of the fair service that is especial
ly commendable. By it's aid tired
mothers are relieved of their precious
burdens for the time and enabled to 20

whom in many instances they must
take with them or remain at home
themselves.
The complaints of extortion which
were so frequent short time ago are
now no longer heard, or at least are be-
coming very rare, and the impression,
which had been somewhat general, that
people were being robbed at the fair is
gradually becoming effaced. There are
plenty OF free water and toilet accom-
modations, and lunches may be had at
moderate charge. This being the
case, person of modest means need
not go hungry, thirsty or dirty while
visiting the fair.
