1T Chicago did not exceed 10000 and at
the Pan-American not over 5000. in
comparison with the 10000 to $4,000
here.
Electricity had only five and one
half acres at Chicago, while at st. Louis
nine acres are given to the same de-
partment, besides a large display OF
electrical generators in the Palace of
Machinery.
No one should be deferred from visit
ing the worlds fair because of the fear
that living expenses in st. Louis are too
high. If anyone has this notion 1t is
high time that it be dispelled. There is
absolutely no doubt of the fact that n
"a find excellent living accommoda-
tons in ST. Louis now at rates lot ex-
ceeding the charges this same month in
New York, Chicago or any other great
American city.
No one need pay more than n dollar
a day for a good room. That is an aver
age rate, though many accommodations
of excellent character may be had for
less. There are many unrented rooms
at five dollars a week, advertised every
day in the newspapers. Hundreds Of
restaurants serve meals or give short
order service at the same rates
that prevailed before the exposition
opened.
1t is suggested that the stranger in
st. Louis, who wishes to find reasonable
clearinghouse rates, make inquiry at
a grocery store or meat market in the
vicinity where he desires to stop. The
grocers and butchers know nearly all
the boarding houses in their neighbOr-
hoods, and they are quite willing to
oblige the stranger by directing him TO
a place to suit his purse and his tastes.

THE WONDERS OF THE
WORLD AT ST. LOUIS
They Are to Be Found in the Great Palaces and Along
"The Pike"

st. Louis.-Early visitors to the Louis
a Purchase exposition have found
at st. Louis an exposition so nearly COM
plete that they have in no way missed
the few minor details that were unfin-
ished on the opening day, and which
nave since been completed. In fact in
an exposition of such proportions as
this it would be impossible to discover
a thousand little details that might lack
completion.
Weather conditions were against the
exposition management for a few days
preceding the opening. Now every
thing is favorable, and the great fair
is entirely complete, a completeness, we
must repeat, that is so enormous that
1t Is all but impossible to comprehend
what it has meant TO the builders. The
last vestige of scaffolding that for a
few days surrounded some of the less inn
portant buildings has been torn away;
the last wagon load of refuse hauled
from the grounds; every flower and
shrub the landscape gardeners included
in their scheme of decoration growing
under the benign influence of a spring
sun, and the exposition stands forth a
completed giant, beautiful in concep-
tion, wonderful in execution, ~stupendous
in size, by far the masterpiece of the
worlds eXpositiOns.
StupendOus size does not half express
it This worlds fair has many sur
prises for the visitor, but its immense
size is the greatest astonisher of all.
Amusement at the extent of the fair is
heard from every visitor.
1t has been interesting to watch the
visitors these first days of the fair. In
teresting to see what would appeal to
then strongest, but after one has studied
the mass of humanity in their quest for
the wonders it is hard to select any n
feature that could be designated as a
general favOrite with all. Of course all
visitors are enthusiastic e the general
picture, the grand ell semble, which has

been created, and for the first hour or
more of their stay inside the grounds
but few get further than the point from
which they catch their first view Of this
grand picture.
1T almost takes my breath away"
exclaimed one woman near whom l was
standing as she caught her first glimpse
magni1cence of the grand exposition
palaces. Such is the general verdict.
For beauty, for magniicence, for extent,
st. Louis has beat the world.
There is another feature, or rather
collection of features, which seemingly
appeals to every visitor, and with good
reason, and that is THE Pike" The
fair management do not wish to appeal
to the public with a side-show. They
built an exposition which should stand
forth to the world on its merits as IN
educator, as a monument to the worlds
progress, but realizing that an anrse-
ment feature was necessary they set to
work to provide the biggest and best in
this line that has ever been known. That
they have succeeded in this is evident
to every visitor who travels. '"The Pike"
Nor is this great amusement feature
lacking in educational interest. Here
one may study the architectural fancies
of the world; here he may study the
nations of the world, their methods of
life, their surroundings, their customs.
He sees realistic pictures of the Esqui-
maux in their snow and ice bound homes
in one minute. and the next is trans
ported to the jungles of tropical Africa.

women and the skeleton men, in no
sense a circus side-show, but a realistic
picture of the world upon which i've

WOMEN buck THE TIGER"
How the Dealers in q Montana Gam

ing Girls Wages.

In Butte, Mont, there is a gambling
house where the patronage of ladies
is the special feature of the manage
ment, and where all kinds of women
play the good old game of faro, perfectly
at home and without fear of Interrupt
ton. The entrance is from an alley near
Broadway, and the house is luXuriously
furnished. Carpets are laid on the
floors, softened lights shine over the
players, courteous attendants deal and
shuttle the cards and pay bets or take
winnings without the slightest sueges-
ton of the incongruity of the situation,
says the Denver Republican.
Here many fashionably gowned wOm-
en- of Butte's elite come in parties or in
pairs with escorts, to quietly venture sill
yer or goldpieces coined from copper by
their husbands, who busy themselves in
Butte's continuous political war.
Women of the business world keep
track of the game, and both dealer and
player usually maintain a rigid silence.

plant. Never before at an exposition
has there been even half as much
power developed as supplied from the
various prime movers in the Palace of
Machinery. In a large boiler house
standing west of the Machinery build
ing, filled with the latest and best pro-
auctions of skilled boiler manufactures,
steam is generated to supply 10000
horsepower to the various engines in
the Machinery building. In addition
to this about 10000 horsepower is re-
ceived by electric cable from power sta
tons in the city of st. Louis. But the
greatest interest is in the engines them
selves rather than in the large capacity
of the exhibit, for among them is a
giant turbine, or rotary engine develop
ing 5000 horsepower, besides others Of
a similar type of smaller capacity. This
is the first display of turbine engines
at a large exposition, as its develop
ment is a very recent achievement of
mechanical engineering and invention.
At the Chicago Exposition the larg-
est gas engine developed only ten
horsepower; the visitor to ST. Louis
may see a gas engine with the capacity
of 800 times larger than the Chicago
engine. The 5000 horsepower gas en-
CINE is the largest engine of its char
acter ever built. Many other gas en-
gines Of various types developing from
1000 to 1,750 horsepower complete this
feature Of the exhibit, and there are
many of the more familiar reciprocal
ing engines of the latest pattern and
highest efficiency.
OF the total number of prime movers
In the Palace of Machinery about one
half are comprised in what Is known as
the Exposition DO wer plant, the other
half being exhibitors engines. Nearly
all these engines are connected with
electrical generators and the power is

murder. A trail of blood from the street
car track suggested that the girl had

Gated desperate struggle. No clew
to the manner of her death has been
found. She was apparently on her
way home when killed. Miss Stein
way was exceptionally attractive and
highly respectable. 1t is believed that
some one waylaid her in the suburbs
or possibly assaulted her and dragged
her body into the vacant lot adjoining
Spring Grove cemetery. There was
found today blood trail from the lot
to the street car tracks and every in
dication of a desperate struggle. Her
teeth were scattered along the trail
as well as her hat and other parts OF
her clothing. She was cut over the
temple, her skull crushed and jaws
broken.

IN RIOT ONE MAN is KILLED.

Three More Are Probably Fatally Hurt
in Empire State.
Rochester, N. Y, Nov. 4.-One man
was killed and three probably fatally
injured in a riot near here today.
A man named Dean, Foreman of a
trolley construction gang. ordered the
men, all Italians, to get into a swamp,
but they refused because they had no
high boots. Dean insisted. This
angered the men, who attacked him
with knives while his back was turned.
Dean then began shooting at the men.
One Italian was instantly killed, an.
other fatally wounded and it is said
there is another dead Italian in the
swamp. Dean, it is said, cannot re-.
cover.
