transmitted by cable throughout the
grounds to the electric railways, the
machinery in operation in the EXPOSE
ton buildings, the pumps supplying
water to the cascades and fountains,
the refrigerating plant and for other
purposes. The total horsepower used
at Chicago did not exceed ~ 200 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 it is
high time that it be dispelled. There is
absolutely no doubt of the fact that one
can find excellent living accommoda-
lions in st. Louis now at rates not ex-
ceeding the charges this same month in
New York. Chicago or any other great
American city.
No one need pay more than one dollar
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 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
boarding house 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 want" columns of the daily news
papers also contain columns of small
advertisements for boarders or dodgers.

What the Ducklings Require.

The ducklings should have plenty of
water to drink. but do not need any to
swim in. In fact, 1t is better that they
should not have creek or pond to swim
in, as they will take too much exercise
if they do. Feed them often and always
mix the feed fresh for each feed;.s as
no young poultry should be fed ar ythiag
that has fermented in the least. Feed
often and keep the ducks eating. They
grow amazingly and at ten weeks of age
should weigh five pounds each.

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
lions 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
similar type of smaller capacity. This
is the first display of turbine engines
at large exposition, as it's 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 300 times larger than the Chicago
engine. The 5000 horsepower gas en-
CINE is the largest engine of it's 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.

st. Louis.-Early visitors to the Louis

at st. Louis an exposition SO nearly COM

have since been completed. In fact in

this 1t would be impossible to discover

Weather conditions were against the
exposition management for 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

what it has meant to the builders The

The Retail Price Of Meat.

When the public is better educated
in the art of buying meat there will be-
closer ratio in price between the
values of live stock on the hoof and
the carcasses on the block Compare
lively few people want anything but
the best cuts. though it is shown
chemically that there is fully as much
nutrition in the cheaper parts. The
result of the wholesale demand for
porterhouse, sirloin or rib roasts keeps
this part of the carcass up to high
figure. while the lower half has to seln
for cost price or less. This is why,
according to the best authorities, the

ut almost takes my breath away"
exclaimed one woman near whom was
standing as she caught her first glimpse
of the beauty of the cascades and the
magnificence of the grand exposition
palaces. Such is the general verdict.
For beauty, for magnificence, 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 net wish to appeal
to the public with side-show They
built an exposition which should stand
forth to the world on its merits as an
educator, as monument to the worlds
progress, but realizing that an amuse-
ment feature vas 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 educa tional 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-
manx in their snow and ice bound homes

ported to the jungles of tropical Africa.

TO CORTELYOU
President Convinced That He Is the
Best Man for Chairman.

There is a firm belief ON the part of men
here in touch with rational politics that
the efforts to induce President Roose-
welt to decide upon someone other than
George b. Cortelyou for chairman Of the
National Committee will fail. 1t is said
THAT Senators Spooner and Aldlich, who
are represented as trying to induce the

telyOu. are not well informed about th"
ability of the youngest member of the

You have pleaded guilty to an indict-

business in Baltimore, but it has been
your custom at intervals to canvass Bel
