bazaar form a veritable Midway Plais-
ance Of diversified and interesting
features Every civilized nation is rep
resented. the representations being
true to nature, i'm so far as costume is
concerned The general effect is pic
uresque and pleasing in the extreme.
The corridor is Midway and the cafes
and exhibits are on both sides. One
strolls along the thoroughfare, elbow
ing Germans and Irish. Spaniards and
Italians, the fendish Turk and the
Acknowledged Oriental, the swarthy
Mexican cowboy. and the bewhiskered

ing business last night, and the attend
ants were kept busy Almost every
conceivable article of merchandise is
on sale clothing, bric-a-brac china
and porcelain ware, fine linen, cigars
and tobacco. and not the least, dolls IN
infinite variety.

tender missives. purchased at the rate
of ten cents per missive. The clair
vovant dealt out the past present and
