A PLAN WHICH ALL INTEND
ING VISITORS SHOULD TAKE
ADVANTAGE OF.

Such is the situation confronting
the citizens of ST. Louis, when too
late to obtain the construction of
anything of permanent nature for
the housing and feeding of their ex-
pected visitors, that the Exposition
officials. from Gov. Francis down,
are appealing to the public-spirited
capitalists of the city to do some
thing to alleviate the situation.
To do what they can, in response
to the appeal, few well-known gen
tlemen of st. Louis have secured a
site in the Fair Grounds, and have
organized a company for the pur-
pose of erecting and equipping an
hotel to accommodate all those intend
ing to visit the Exposition and who
desire To secure their quarters in
advance.
All those 10 whom this appeals can
be positively assured of reserv atoms
being made for them in such an hotel
for the extremely low rate of Two
Dollars per day for board AID lOdg-
ing for as many days as they desire
to remain. The only condition be-
ing that they so signify their inten-
ton at once, and as a guarantee to
tue. AtElAt)dhN Lt+ttt tA4f " III A'Fh-A#
send TO the Cook Hotel Il Excursion
Co, Of st. Louis, the sum OF TWO
Dollars, who will Immediately for
ward receipt or membership card.
This card, upon presentation AT the
hotel any time during the Fair pc
Rod. upon one week 5 notice, will
entitle members 10 accommodations
mentioned, and be credited to their
Z oh IA
bill. This Two Dollars advance
payment Is required wholly for the
purpose Of insuriug sufficient pat
ronage at this low rate, to warrant
4 the expenditure of so large an
amount necessary for the coustruc-
ton and equipment of buildings,
which, as must be apparent To all,
will be a total loss at close of Expo
siticu, or nearly so.
The hotel will be but two stories
high, and practically fire proof, ln-
Gated ON the highest and most de-
Ilightful site in the city, and being
in the FAIR Grounds It's patrons will
be saved the ordeal of getting ca
and from the Fair by the already
over-taxed street car and other trans
pOrtation companies.
The hotel will be conducted by

manager OF the Grand Hotel, Gin.
