The timid-eyed little woman who

suddenly put down her spoon. The

had long feared would some day be the

mounted the stairs together. Miss

ORlENTALS At THE FAIR.

Babies from Far-On Lands Who Add to
the interest of the Exhibits.
Among the young people who are
visiting the Columbian exposition this
summer are Javanese baby, three
Chinese boys of from two to six years.
a pickaninny from Dahomey, dancing
Soudanese baby, a little Bedouin girl
who dances in the Arab encampment,
q pappoose or two in the Indian village,
and a half-dozen Egyptian boya who
belabor the tiny gray donkeys in the
Cairo street. These boys and girls did
not visit the fair to see the curious
things in the wonderful white build
ings, but to be partof the show. They
are there to be looked at, not to look.
and they are among the most interest
ing of all the exhibits.
The black baby lives in the Dahomey
village, which is supposed to look as If
1t had been picked up in Africa and set
down in Chicago. In some respects it
certainly does resemble the hot conn
try about which Mr.. Glave ha~told US
during the past year. The ground is
sandy enough and the sunshine hot
enough for Sahara, and the reed
matched huts which line the high
board fence surrounding the village a. e
uncomfortable enough in appearance
to satisfy the most enthusiastic ex-
plorer. In the middle of the village is
a larger hut, open at the sides and COW
cred with thatch, and in this hut thu

is as cunning as most other
babies are. When I saw him he was
sitting in a puddle of dirty water with
no clothing on to get soiled. watching
his mother and older brother securing
two or three brass and silver rings with
q bit of rag and q handful of sand.
The little fellow wanted the rings to
play with, and when he found that he
could not have them he set up howl
that sounded very much like q white
boy of two years crying because he
could not have porcelain clock or
circus wagon to play with.-Harper's

Elmo Work Dono by Alaslkans In Various
Materials.
The aboriginal Inhabitants of Alaska
have developed wonderful progress in
various of the arts. In addition to
wonderful wood carvings, shown In
totem poles, chests and various other
objects, they are expert in working
copper, bone, walrus ivory, tortoise
shell and pearl. The objects they make
are not particularly pleasing to the
artistic eye, but viewed as the product
of a people who have worked without
models other than of their own selec-
ton the skill shown is marvellous.
In the Government building at the
worlds fair in the Alaska and fisheries
department are shown many objects
made by Alaskan Indians during times
near and remote. In the chronological
building are other collections, while
natives of the races themselves are to
be seen dwelling in houses typical of
those occupied in Alaska In addition to
household utensils, weapons and other
implements of the chase, the Indians are
skilled in making articles of adorn-
ment and the paraphernalia used in
the mummeries of the superstition
that, where not replaced by Chris
tianity, passes current for religion.
In the manufacture of fighting
knives of the Flinkat Indians, copper
is the material used for the blades, the
ease of working this metal, which is
found in its native state in Alaska,
making it favorite- for all possible
purposes. On the hilts of some of the
knives are carved the totems or coats
of arms of the owners. That of .
aheathed knife represents human
head. An eagles head constitutes the
other heraldic emblem. One OF the
knives, an ugly-looking weapon, is en-
tirely of copper, being sharpened at
both ends. The handle il in the mid
die, being wound SO that the blade can
be grasped without injury to the fin
gers. i.a - =. -5e-- ~
