Chicago on Fire,

One of the most interesting and
wonderful exhibitions outside of the
Worlds Fair, at Chicago, is the great
Panorama of the Chicago Fire. No
written description can do justice to
this remarkable scene. 1t presents the
city as it was while burning, in which
are shown in startling manner the fire
ruins and panic that make this con-
hagration the most awful calamity
of the century. Everyone going to the
Worlds Fair to see the sights should
take occasion to view this thrilling
scene. 1t is situated at 1870 Michigan
Avenue and is easy of access from all
the downtown hotels.
