Mayor Edwin +. Sweet has notified
Colonel {. II. Dimunds. of the bureau

Grand Rapids declines to entertain the
fOrty-fVc members of the Philippine
Worlds fair commission. The mayor
arrived at this conclusion after hav-
ing consulted with prominent citizens.
and after negotiations with the Wash

The difficulty is that the commission
was to visit here Sunday. July 3. All
of the furniture factories here are
closed on that day, and the city gener-
ally is in no condition to entertain at
that time as the mayor represented
to the bureau. The bureau made no
change in the itinerary, and Mayer

MAELsTROM ON
THE PIKE AT WORLDS FAIR

Juggling with water to the amount
of $4,000 gallons a minute is the feat
that the originators of the Magic
Whirlpool have carried into compile
tion on the Pike at the st. Louis
worlds fair. In this amusement fea-
ture which is really reproduction of
of the Norway Maelstrom without the
final plunge into oblivion. the person
who embarks on the boat is sent three
times around the edge of a waterfall
and then into the whirlpool proper
where every turn brings him near the
central fountain into which he seems
certain to be plunged.
Turning aside from the danger al
the last moment the boat passes into
the enchanted lake where scenes from
Nights is eclipsed by a fairy scene
glowing with soft lights whose chang
ing effects soothe rather than dazzle
the eye of the voyagcr. Scenes from
famous events of history and tableauN
from grand opera follow in rapid sue
cesSion all tremendously blended to
produce a general effect of magnifi-
cence rather than detached units.
Every artifice of makers of modern
Illusions is used to mystify the trav-
eler. Figures that appear before the
boat and then vanish or through which
the boat cuts its way as though thin
air are among the less startling fca-
lures of this journey. While some of
the tableauN are awe inspiring, none
of them has the slightest taint of the
grewsOme and everything in the Mag
ic Whirlpool will be found in good
taste, quality that is usually lacking
in productions of this kind. Among
the illusions may be mentioned the
Bridge of Acheron with its procession
of lost souls and the Great Spotted
Rat teCming with mystery.
In the judgment of fellow show
men on the Pike who are the court
Of last appeal in amusement features,
Ed NJ. Bayliss, inventor OF the Magic
Whirlpool has succeeded in doing the
in the face Of abundant
of failure that were freely
offered him when his plans were first
broached.
