Luna Park, that marvellous pleasure
ground which has practically brought
about the reconstruction of Conev Te~
land, presents a picture of industry
these days that is somewhat astound
ing. Drones have no part in the hive
governed by Thompson and Dundy the
promoters of this enterprise, and the
workmen at present employed there
present a cosmopolitan picture thai
could hardly be equalled anywhere else
in the world. The buildings are ali
being reconstructed for the COMING
season in addition to the new structures
that are being erected in the newly add
ed ground for the Durbar and the
Burning City. AS fast as the natives
from India, Arabia and the Other
Oriental countries that are to contrib
ute to the picturesque features of the
Durbar arrive they are put to work
on salary, and in consequence one can
find Hindoos, Arabs, Sikhs, Pathans
Esquimaux, Irish, Italians, Germans
and almost every nationality on earth
laboring in the park. Luna Park will
open in May.
This has been a particularly FORUM
