The Libby Prison War Mu-
scum.

OF the MANY attractions outside of
the Worlds Fair in Chicago, there
are but few in which there is so much
interest centered as there is in the
Libby Prison War Museum. In
1889 this celebrated prison was re-
moved from Richmond to Chicago
and converted into War Museum.
The project was undertaken by n
syndicate of the best known business
men of the city whose enterprise was
conceived in commercial spirit, and
has attained national reputation. A
project such as this was never before
heard of. To move n brick and stone
building the size of Libby more than
a thousand miles, across rivers and
mountains, was an enterprise that
manv of the best known contractors
in the West refused to undertake at
any price But the move was made
with success. Then the famous old
structure was filed with war material
thst represents the work Of lifetime
and the expenditure of half million
COLLARS. Ihe great collection is con-
ceded to be second to none in the
country and includes much of the
most valuable material that the great
est civil war the world has ever known
has left posterity. The collection
includes thousands and thousands OF
relics Of every description. many OF
which form imnortant links in the
history of the Nation. The old build.
ing itself, is fraught with interesting
memories and the story of the cele.
brated tunnel escape of Feb. 9, 1864
never fails to interest the visitors
One hundred and niue Union officers
made their escape through that tun'
mel which formed one of the mos'
thrilling events in the history of the
war.
