WORLDS FAIR NOTES.

The last will and testament OF
Queen Isabella, in which she
makes a number of references to
the new world, will be a very inter
esting object in the Spanish exhibit
at the Worlds Fair.
Exhibits for the Woman's build
ing are required to be i'll the build
ing by March IS, at which time an
expert committee of the Board OF
Lady Managers will pass upon
them to determine their fitness for
exhibition.
Two white kangaroos will appear
in the New. South Wales exhibit.
These are exceedingly rare animals.
Only one other living speciman is
known to exist, and that is an at
traction in the Royal Aquarium i'll
London.
The various transportation lines
between the central portion of Chi
cargo and the Worlds Fair grounds
will be able to carry upwards of
100, 900 people an hour.
An engine built by James Watt,
Lancashire, England, i'll 1915, will
be exhibited at the Worlds Fair in
the Transportation department. 1t
is owned by John Rourke & Son,
Savannah, Ga, and has been CON
tinuously in use since built.
Arrangements have been made
in London to transport to Chicago,
for use at the Worlds Fair, seven
English coaches and sixty horses,
together whit professional drivers
and guards. These coaches will
carry passengers from the hotels to
the Exposition grounds and return,
at prices commensurate with such
fad, which it is believed will be ex-
ceedingly fashionable with wealthy
people.
Iceland sagas, bearing on the
early discoveries of the Norsemen
and the stories of their trips to Vim
land and possibly North America,
will be lent by the Danish govern
ment to the United States for eX-
hibition at the Worlds Fair.
These sagas are entitled COdeX
Fluteyensis. 1t has required a
great deal of red tape to secure these
valuable manuscripts. Copenhagen
the Danish government has stipu
lated that in case of the total loss
$40, 900 must be paid for them and
all expenses incident to their eX-
hibition. They are to be returned
by United States man-of-war.
Visitors to the Worlds Fair who
are infrm, crippled or simply
weary, can do their sight seeing i'll
the various buildings by making use
of rolling chairs. A company was
granted the right, some time ago,
of operating such vehicles, and by
May I will have 900 young men,
chiefly college students, in its en-
ploy to push them. The charges
to visitors for making use of these
chairs will be as follows: For chair |
carrying one person, IS cents per
hour, 10 cents per half-hour; two
persons, s. per hour, so cents per
haIfhour; one person, when chair
is taken for a period of not less
than ten hours, s. for the first ten
hours and 20 cents an hour for the
time over ten hours; carrying two
persons, s. for the first ten hour
and Is cents an hour after that.
