The work of building this village

accomplished it. and are now quite

say that there is hardly characteristic
architecture in the world that is not

And not only the buildings are shown,

life are faithfully portrayed, SO that a

more. the Illawarra tribe from New
South Wales has an artist whose paint

valued. His name was Mickey" and
he was the shining light Of the tribe.
Mickey" wasn't always an artist For
many years he fought and battled with
opposing tribes. but from exposure
rheumatism set into his joints and he
was unable to walk. He lay around his
nut unable to move, and realizing that
his days were nearly over he gave up
friendly boomerang in warfare, and de-
clded to make a name for himself and
to prove to the world that he was not
an ordinary savage.
So he drew pictures Of fishes in the
water, boats sailing, and trees-in fact,
made pictures of his own native heath.

Especial Chicago Correspondence
There never was q queerer lot of
buildings gotten together than are to
be seen in the Colum bian metropolis at
Jackson park. Scattered throughout
tho grounds are all the different styles
of architecture of every race of people
on the globe, from the bush hut of the
Australian ranger to the palace of the
American millionaire.
A study of the primitive structures of
great oceans is afforded the people of
the big cities of civilization, who but
for this grand fair would have had no
knowledge of them save that CLEANED
from books of travel. There is also an
excellent opportunity to become &C.

of the strange races of the earth in

INDIAN EDUCATION.

| The Canadian Exhibit in tn. ltn.r>,
Arts building at the Worlds Fair.
In some particulars the British
| methods of managing the North Ameri-
can Indians has been more successful
than that pursued by the white people
south of the great lakes. In Canada's
exhibit in the Liberal Arts building
there is an Indian exhibition which
shows that the Canadians have relied
upon the education of the Indians to
centro! them. Long preceding like
dams have had Indian industrial
schools in operation, and the exhibit in
Canada's display consists of products of
these schools. and along with it at
present are seven Indian girls and
boys. They are from the northwest
territory, and are pupils of St. Albert's
school. Edmonton, San Boniface's
school, opposite Winnipeg, and the
school at Battleford on the Saslsatche-
wan river: The girls and boys repre-
sent the Crees, Satteux and Muske-
CONS OF the northwest territory, and
are from the blanl<eted or most I'M
civilized tribes of the dominion. The
children are kept at work before the
public at their respective trades, and
make an interesting and creditable
showing at mantua-making, harness.
making, boot and shoe making, and
typesetting. They are surrounded by
samples of work from all the industrial
schools, and in contrast are arraved
Indian fabrications, feathered garments,
utensils and weapons, which they
made wore, and used in the savage
state.
The exhibit in it's entirety is striking
and interesting. and instructive in
showing what the Canadians are doing
for its six hundred children in the in
dustrial schools and even thousand at
the Indian day and boarding schools.
The children at present at work will
be replaced by others soon from other
schools, and Charles de Cazes, who has
the Canadian Indian exhibit in charge,
will shortly have some of the blanketed
Indians of the northwest territory
added to Prof. Putnam's chronological
exhibit

| where the eye catches mellow shafts
| and fugitive glints of dim color, rarely
seen save in the duslzy aisles of old

| At first thought, corn-cobs would
seem to be unpromising materials for
an artist to work with, but they have
here been handled with truly marvel
Gus effect in may cubes, rosettes, fes-

At either end of the hall is large
American eagle wholly in various tints
and hues of corn. the beak and legs
golden, the outst1etched wings in red
kernels, shading off to tint as deli
cate as the heart of a sea-shell.
Twelve massive columns, swathed in
oats and grasses, studded with mosaic
cubes of colored corn and fluted at the
capitals with lnillet heads, support the
high ceiling. Extending round the
hall near the windows are twenty-four
smaller columns wrought in wheat.
Four large panels represent four lead
ing industries of the state-Stocl< rails
ing, dairying. mining, pottery-so
faithfully done in cereals as to resem-
BILE great pictures.
The mining panel pOrtrays a sturdy
youth in shirt of red corn, trousers of
mlllet heads and cap from seed of vari-
GUS kinds. The flesh tints of face and
brown hands are strilSinyly brought
out by the natural color Of corn husks
The dairy panel represents a girl of
comely face in light corn husk, a dress
OF red cobs and tresses of brown corn
silk. The COW by her side is in millet
heads. Three cows and a calf, also in
millet. adorn the stock panel
The panel depicting pottery sets forth
a young artisan, in a Roman cloak of
tinted corn. in the act of fashioning an
urn made of fine seeds The shading
of the potter's cloak in corn is very
artistic, the colorinG running from u
deep rich red to a light pink.
Other pieces represent music, art.
astronomy and literature. In the south
west corner of the hall is located a
kind of aery. or balcony, for a band or
orchestra; and here are several really
wonderful designs wrought in corn
cobs and grapevines. One, for exam
pie. is designed as a Roman vase COM
posed of cobs, holding a vine which has
leaves and husks and supports a flower
fashioned out of a red ear of popcorn.
The artists-for thus the decorators
must be designated-have displayed
not only patience and fidelity in their !
work, but the promptings of true !
genius. In performing their work |
twelve hundred bushels of corn have !
been used, and mere than seven thou |
sand sheaves of wheat, oats, millet and |
other cereals.
