OUTSIDE VIEW OF The FAIR
A Prominent Citizen of Wisconsin
Gives His Impressions.
The BugbcarsT of Torrid Weather,
Exorbitant Charges and Other Dis
comforts Being Swept Away.

st. Louis, Aug. 6.-"From the mid
die of the exposition until Its close
the attendance to- the fair will boom"
said A. j. Linderman, of Milwaukee.
Beside being yice-president of the Wis
consin Worlds fair commission, Mr..
Linderman Is prominent both in man
ufacturing and political circles in Wis

ANY of several reasonsI know will
be sufficient to drive people here in in
creasing numbers during the late sum
mer and autumn" he continued. THE
great bugbear Of unbearably hot wealth

minds of people who live IN the locali-
ties where st, Louis weather was re-
ported to be equal to a perpetual Turk
ish bath. came to the city prepared
to endure much discomfort for the sake
of the pleasure of the fair, and I ind
that the weather does not prevent me
from being as happy as | could be in
Milwaukee, People have come here
during the dreaded heated term 10 be
agreeably surprised. They have gone
to tell their friends about It, The re-
suit will be an influx of people who
expected to shun the centers of popu-
iation in the summer time. This proc
ess has occurred more than once to
my knowledge. {.s 4. .,g y
1.-THE tendency to hospitality, partic-
ularly displayed in the state buildings,
has given visitors more personal pleas
ure than they would gain from miles
Of exhibit palaces, RAnd it is usually
personal feelings by which people
judge the fair for themselves and for
their friends. The exposition officials
seem to have put as much care into
making people comfortable as into ed
ucating them. Resting places are
everywhere, and have not found an
attendant in any of the state or for
eign buildings who failed to be cour-
teous and even SOLICITORS. I believe
moreover, that good food is to be had
at reasonable prices inside the exposi-
ton, and throughout the city the cost
Of lodging is not ,&orbitant In most
places there is a very small increase
over ordinary changes, but the advan-
tages Of the exposition ought to make
up the amount many times. I know OF
no place where SO much may be lad
] for SO little money"

Storm Damage at Memphis.

A big wind and rain storm passed
over Memphis last week, causing
considerable damage. A house was
struck by lightning, which set it On
fire and building and contents were
destroyed, but fortunately none Of
the occupants were injured, though
some of them were considerably
shocked. In several portions Of the
city telegraph and telephone poles
and shade trees were blown down.
Wires were entangled and broken all
over the city, and on many streets
travel was impeded for consider
able time.

The strike leaders had positive infor.

a Remarkable Showing. 81

phis postoffice, issued last week,
shows that receipts for the month
Of July, just ended, were $2S,31e.-
a. For the corresponding month
Of the previous year the receipts
were $24,S65.55. This shows a net
increase Of $3,45O.9O. The per-
centage of increase for the month
iust ended over the same month OF
1908 is therefore 1873. The in
crease for the year 1903 over the
previous year, 1909, was not quite
IL per cent. The amounts forsthose
years are: For 1893 S24,s56.55
for 1909, Ssl,912. "A. The percent
age increase Of the year 1902 over

For the past four years the show
ing Of increase of each year is given

month four years ago is shown tc
be nearly 40 per cent, a truly re-
markable record. In that time tbs
stamp sales have almost doublec

ly afternoon dress for cool days in
summer.
If you cannot buy the embroidered
pattern dress perhaps You can have
one embroidered for you just as hand

about that--it gives you a chance for
an original design.
The waist has a deep girdle and
above it a heavy padded design OF the
embroidery, which is studded with
palest pink corals. A chain of these
beads is worn around the neck.
A large black chip hat with pink
roses and a handsome lace veil worn
with it make a very stunning cos
tune.
Flowered silks. muslins and nets are
very popular, and what material could
be prettier for a dainty evening gown?
This particular dress is Of soft white
silk spotted with tiny rosebuds. The
soft lace and folds around the neck
are held in front by one large silk
rose. Simplicity is the feature Of this
gown.
