..THE WORLD FINDER"

The Handsome Scenery to be Used
in the Production.
There is vast deal of interest even in
the preparation of the novel scenery to be
used in the production Of THE World
Finder in "The Chicago Spectatorium.
For the production of this scenery there
has been constructed an immense building
covering 100000 square feet of ground.
This building is divided into studios each
one being devoted to some especial branch
of the production. In one of them can be
seen very nearly complete reproductions of
the three caravels of Columbus fleet; in
another the miniature forest which was
imported from Jamaica, w. l.; in another a
building 60 by 20 feet which is in every
detail a faithful copy OF the celebrated
monastery at La Rabida; is still another a
small army of costume makers at work on
the. costumes of the production. Work is
progressing very rapidly in this depart
ment, much more so, in fact, than on the
building itself
The long duration of bad weather and
many other disappointments have caused
Unavoidable delay in finishing the Chicago
Spectatoriuni, and this production of the
Columbian Celebration Company will not
take place before about July lst. A visit
to the Worlds Fair will not be c, m,lete
without visit 10 the Spectatorium.
