Buildings shook and the shrieking OF
the gale was for a time so loud that II

flashes OF lightning were almost con

ing. although a large majority of the
buildings Sare still intact. The loss
caused by the flames which swept

to be between $6.O00.000 and &c.
100000. This is earthly confined to
the Belgian and Brazil sections but
the damage by smoke and water has
been general and will add TO the total
loss.
The American sections escaped the
fire and the art exhibit was in
building two miles distans from the
flames. The French loss was confined
TO the building in which various
foods wore displayed and the pavilion
OF the city of Paris containing indus
trial exhibits and models from the
schools of art.
The recovery of valuable coliec-

CAPT. ROBINSON FINDS
HIS VALUABLE MARE
Publication in the Sunday Daily
Press Receivers Horse Thought
to Have Been Stolen.

AS the result of the publication in
the Daily Press Sunday morning
telling of the valuable horse, which
was probably stolen from the stables
OF Capt John c. Robinson, on Hamp-
ton Roads Friday night, the mare
was returned TO its owner early
yesterday.
Charles Rowe. who lives at Fox
Hill. read the story of the missing
horse and, going to the home of b.
L Guy, a neighbor. found that the
brown mare was then in Mr. Guys
barn. having strayed to the Guy
home Sunday morning. The horse
was riderless and the halter, which
vas taken from the barn of Capt.
Robinson. was missing. Mr.. Rowe
Immediately telephoned Capt. Robin
son of the presence of the horse and
yesterday he delivered the animal to
Capt. Robinson.
1t is believed among the officers
and by Capt. Robinson tnat the
horse was stolen from the barn by a
man who either desired to ride to
York county or probably got fright
eDed and decided to turn the mare
hack. Just how the animal strayed
to Fox Hill is a mystery, as Capt.
Robinson had never used the horse
on a trip to that section.
