New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1904-08-17

/ The time to see it is now. Within {
month the flowers will have lost theil
beauty and the verdure will have
faded and this is one of the chief O
the beauties of the grounds. The fora
decorations are wonderful; nothing
like it has ever been attempted. an6
no decorations of this magnitude have
ever been SO successfully and com
| pletely materialized.
To get to st. Louis there is no better
way than to take the North Stal
Limited on the M. & st. L. road. 1
is perhaps the best train that runs
into the ground. By taking a sleeper
at Minneapolis at s o'clock you gel
into the fair ground at 1:30 the next
day. The ride is rest and treat
for the car is like a rocking chair anG
is clean and comfortable, in fact yor
regret the time when the ride will end
The train only stops for water ano
coal and to change engines and the
management is the perfection Of
agreeableness. You stop at the Worlds
Fair depot or, if you wish go on TIC
| the union depot in the city and the
arrangement at either place is such
that child can go there and have nc
fear of getting on the wrong train. 1t
is one of the best features of the fair
that they are able to handle the large
crouds in so satisfactory a manner.
The G.. & N. W. offers another plan
of getting to the fair and that is by
the way of Chicago. This route is a
few hours longer but to those who de-
sire to stop off in Chicago it offers
an advantage that cannot be secured
on any other line running out of this
section. If those who are figuring on
going to the fair will consult the
station agents they can secure infor-
nation that will prove of great value
TO them and be the means of saving
them money,
One would think with the thousands
of questions that are asked daily, and
many of them the same, that the
officials could get out of patience but
they don't and visitors will find them
always ready to put themselves out to
set them right. Visiting the fair is as
simple as going to Minneapolis and
not more costly to those who care to
save, but to those who are out for a
good time there are ways of spending
money as fast as it can be taken from
the pocket but with ticket over the
railroad for twelve dollars and the
ability to live on So a day after you
get there, the person who fails to 60
will always regret it.
Of the interesting things to be seen
there is room for but a few notes.
Would you think the biggest crowd
in Machinery hall would be around
the big engine? Not at all. It is
around the man who is making wooden
puzzles with a jig saw.
New Yorker exclaimed on his first
trip up The Pike with some regret in
his voice: ''Well, old Coney can't
come up to this.
Petrified wood is a homely phrase
to describe the specimens from Nevada
more splendid than any onyx or agate:
and there are whole forests of it.
The first steam turbine that ever has
been exhibited to the public is shown
in the exhibit of the Westinghouse
Machine Company, in Machinery Hall,
at the Worlds Fair. Although steam
turbines have been in process of con
struction for years it is only in the
last two years that they have been
perfected.
The largest and most complete au.
tomato instrument in the world, an
orchestrion, which combines all the
instruments of an orchestra with 9
compass from the deepest note of the
contra bass to the highest note of the
piccolo, is exhibited in the German
section of the Palace of Liberal Arts
at the Worlds Fair.
A wonderful piece of embroidery, {
large representation of Raphael's
Sistine Madonna, by Miss Clara Rip
berger, adorns the wall in the tea
room of the House of the Board O.
Lady Managers at the Worlds Fair
The picture is uniquely wrought il
silk in fixed colors by a new process:
of ''crewel stitching"
