T Chicago October was the
 great month in point of at- tendance at the Worlds

= tendance at the Worlds fair. There Is every req son to believe the same re- suit will come to the Pan-American Ex- position at Buffalo, where October Is always a month of delightful weather. The Exposition in point of beauty and interest is at it's climax, and the pro gramme of special events Is such as to
 attract and please. September started with great crowds, and only the trage- dy in the Temple of Music, which stun
 ned and shocked world, halted an overwhelming success in that month. The Exposition management as a trib- ute of respect closed the gates for one day, Thursday, when the state funeral of the third martyred president took place. The crowds since then have poured. to Buffalo. The Temple of Music, now hallowed and historic ground, has been the Mecca of thou sands.
 Buffalo has demonstrated her ability to care for great crowds satisfactorily, not only in hauling them to the Exposi- ton by street car and steam railway at
 a fare of but cents from any part of the city, but to house and feed them at prices in the reach of all. The stories of exorbitant prices were long ago shown to be fables, and every visitor who makes the slightest effort to get accommodation can do so wholly with in his means.
 The Exposition itself, with it's beauti- ful buildings, it's coloring by day. it's
 magic lighting at night, its walks and courts, it's canals and lakes, its foun- | tains and statuary, its exhibits and it's
 amusements, has been delight to the | 5,OOOOOO visitors who have already been to the Pan-American.
 The Exposition Company opened up | the month of october, beginning Mon- Gay. Sept. 30, with a Carnival week of | splendid events, including baby | coach parade, with 5000 school chil- dren singing in the procession, mon- ster pageant with the floats used in the l New Orleans Mardi Gras and ale gorical parade and the feature of the beautiful floral parade at Saratoga. These will take place on Thursday and Saturday, Oct. 3 and 5, but every day from Sept. 30 to Oct. 5 will be replete with interest. Special fireworks on the lake, with decorated and illuminated | launches in a procession of fiery grand
 eur, will afford new and wonderful sensations to the visitors.
 Thus October will be ushered in with a programme so arranged as to give | the American public delightful week. The life saving drill, daily, has be- come one of the great attractions of | the Exposition. 1t tells the story of the work of the heroic men who guard the shores of ocean and great lakes, al | ways on the alert to drag from deaths brink the shipwrecked sailor or pas
 sengers. The model camp of United | States marines, the seacoast guns, the | ordnance and all the exhibits showing
 wars panoply and our defensive meas-
 ures have been great educator to
 thousands of visitors. Some military
 company Is always encamped in the
 park, and that part of the grounds is
 never without interest.
 With the magnificent exhibit of the
 United States Government and the
 South and Central American States
 buildings every visitor can spend q
 day. No exposition has ever provided
 in so compact space, with such
 beauty of architecture and with so
