that eleven years have rolled by since Chi
cago invited all the nations of the earth to
come within her gates. These having been
years of remarkable progress the mere tact
that it is up to date would place the
Louisiana Purchase Exposition ahead or
not only the Columbian Exposition of 1893
but the Paris Universal Exposition OF 1900
the only other worlds fair Of the period
mentioned. The great development OF
hoTseless vehicles, certain wonderful ad-
vances in the field of electricity, the wire
less telegraph, the submarine boat and the
practicable flying machine--all OF which
are special features at st. Louls-are, tor
instance, matters of the period since the
Chicago event To my mind, however, the
one distinctive feature which places It
ahead of all other worlds fairs Is the COM
prehensive Philippine exhibit. Ahead also
of any previous showing, are the Individual
buildings of eight of the foreign nations
and, taking everything into consideration,
the architectural and landscape gardening
achievements are greater-as they ought to
be with the world older.

One of the greatest, and certainly one OF
the most agreeable, OF my many surprises
was the supreme beauty of the main group
of buildings. For the simple reason that
the camera does not exist which could
take in the vast picture as the eye sees it,
the early views of the sroup-.a bit here
and bit there-gave a scant idea OF the
scheme as a whole. Nor did the early
views of the ten individual uildings which
make up its component parts do justice to
their nobility of architecture and general
grandeur. Then again in the ground plans

unsatisfying. Far from that it IS quite as
remarkable in its way as the famous Court

one respect it is even more notable, for in
stead OF two grand vistas it offers dozen.
The main vista is, of course, the one look

no uniformity of style. The very liberal

An Indian Game Fowl That Is Very
Valuable.

An Indian Game Fowl That is Very
Valuable.
Not often does the price Of a single
egg climb to 500, but this is what was
offered for each Of the eggs Of GER
tain Indian game hen, which was
brought to England some time ago.
For centuries the Indian game, or
Azeel fowls, have been the very apex
Of the game breed, for the pureness OF
blood and pedigree have been most
carefully preserved for so long that
the date of the origin Of the race has
been lost in the past.
1t is almost impossible to procure
specimens Of the purest blood, for they
are treasured by the Indian sportsman
at the highest value.
AS game fowl they are great fight
ers. Those who have seen them in In
dia - for the finest birds never reach
our colder elimates-tell Of their PROV
ess and ungovernable teEacity in bat
tie. With them it is always victory
or death.
In America, however. the game fowls
are seldom raised for fighting pur-
poses, hut for show. and as pets and
hobbies of poultry fanciers.-Country

This Insect Represents a Truly Silent
World.

This Insect Represents Truly Silent
World.
After all, the chief charm Of this race
Of winged flowers does not lie in their
varied and brilliant beauty, not yet in
their wonderful series Of transforma-
tions. in their long and sordid caterpil-
lar life, their long slumber in the
chrysalis, or the very brief period
which comprises their beauty. their
love making, their parentage and their
death. Nor does it lie in the fact that
we do not yet certainly know whether
they have in the caterpillar shape the
faculty of sight or not, and do not even
know the precise use Of their most
conspicuous organ in maturity, the an
tennae. Nor does it consist in this
that they of all created things have
furnished man with the symbol Of his
own immortality. 1t rather lies in the
fact that, with all their varied life and
activity, they represent an absolutely
silent world. All the vast ar
ray of modern knowledge has found
no butterfly which murmurs with an
audible voice and only few species
which can even audibly click or rus
tie with their wings-T. W. Higgin-
son, in Atlantic.

GOLDEN CHAINS.

For Years.

M. Max Regis Wore Golden Handcuffs
For Years.
1t will be remembered, says the
Westminster Gazette, that some years
ago VI. Max Regis was presented by
group of lady admirers with a pair OF
golden handouts, in commemoratlon
of his arrest and Imprisonment in the
great cause Of Nationalism. The An
ti-Semite swore that he would wear
the manacles as souvenir bracelets for
the remainder of his life. For some
time he kept his promise, and then 1t
was observed that he had abandoned
his decorative fetters. Why? Was 1t
infidelity to the cause, or what! Peo-
nle wondered, and could get no salts
factory answer, until a few days ago
there was a public sale Of unredeemed
nledees from the Mont de Piete. The
golden handouts (weighing forty-hve
crammes) were included IN the cata-

The Pike has in the Tyrolean Alps the
finest concession that l have ever seen:
There is great square with many, quaint
buildings, little village street, and above
the snow-clad mountains-which look very
real as the evening falls. The best scenic
railroad yet devised affords several fine
glimpses Of the Alps, and there is very
graphic exposition OF the Oberammergau
passion play in the little church: The
Cliff Dwellers' concession also looks very
realistic at nightfall. 1t is elaborate in ar.
rangement, and the counting, snake and
other dances by the Southwestern Indians
make it another of the Pike shows which
should be taken in by all. In Seville there
is an amusing marionette theatre and some
genuine Spanish dancing. For the rest the
Pike offers infinite variety, and as a rule
the full moneys worth is given. The enor-
nous Jerusalem and Boer War concessions
are not on the Pike.

one waters and beer. For bit OF lunch
Germany, France and England all offer de-
licious pastry in the Agricultural building.
