Tius !rs been true at the v.-orM'. fi!". -, here the roYorrmert has U-cii casi.'r Crt in point of prompt ness in cou.pV.n? building's as well as icstal-atso'i f the exhibits. Yexatioua k!a;.s ti.at characterized nearly every ether c-p:irtnient of the exposition were mlirs; ia the jrovcrnment's sec tion, i.'mle Sam i-sa hard taskmaster, and contractors who work for him ra.re!y fail to keep to the letter of their aiTiremeiit. Hence it was that when the cxjw-Mtion opened t'nele Sam was reativ to revire the visitors. Aside from the angaria of the Fish eries d nar.niut (and they are the pe-jal evhiliit of the national Ssh commission,' L "ncle Sam's naval exhibit is the most popular with all classes of wor i's fair visitors. Persons who are faini'iar with the ocean and its ships are p'eased to examine the fidelity of detai'. which the exhibit shows: while residents of the inland find great de lipht In pet tins' a whiff of marine odors and an insight into the methods of the marine soldiery. The battle ship Illinois is so like in appearance to W genuine ironclad that a majority of the visitors are in ignorance of the fact that they tread the decks of a brielt and mortar man-of-war. The structure, which to all appear ance is a destructive battleship, has been erected on piling- in the lake at the northeast portion of the park. Paving the appearance of being moored to the pier, with long landing T6a If J ' - BATTI-KSHIP "UJJS01S" AT SIGHT. stages thrown out fore and aft, the illusion is more complete. The struc- ! ture has all the fitting-s that belong tc an actual modern war vessel, such as j puns, turrets, torpedo tubes, torpedo nets and booms, with boats, anchors, ' davits, awning's and deck fitting, to pether with steam winches and other appliances for working- the same, f ffi cers, heamen and marines hve lieen detailed by the navy department during- the exposition period, and the dis- : cipline and mode of life on I'nited States war vessels are completely illus trated. While the complement of men is not so preat as actually employed on war vessels, the number is sujiicient to i carry out the pun drills, torpedo drills and oj'ier ship exercises daily. The destructive force of the Massa chusetts, one of the crack ships of the United States navy, is amply presented in its counterpart, the model battleship Illinois. The dimensions of the model are those of the Massachusetts leng-th, E4S feet; width amidships 6'J feet S inches; depth from water line to main deck, 13 feet. Centrally situated on the main deck is a superstructure 8 feet high with a hammock berthing above 7 feet high, and above these are the bridge, chart house and small boats. At the forward end of the superstructure is a i cone-fJiaped tower called the "military raast," near the summit of which are two circular "tops," intended as look outs for sharpshooters. The height from the water line to the summit of the military mast is TO feet, and above is placed r. flagstaff for signaling. The battery is powerful and murder ous. The shells thrown from the big guns will pierce almost any armor known save that "nickel armor" p!a".e which is used exclusively ?y L'mteJ States vessels. There are four l:".-;nch breech-loadir.g rified cannon, eight Si inch breech-loading rifled cannon, four C-iuch rifles, twenty 6-pounu rapid firing guns, six 1-pound rapid-firing guns, two (Jatiing guns in the tower and sis torpedo guns. All of these are mounted as in a genuine battleship, and every point of the compass is with in range of some of these deadly gur.! when the vessel is at anchor. On the starboard side of the ship the side nearest the pier, ye landsmen is shown the torpedo protection nit, reaching tlieentire length of the imita tion craft. Steam launches and cut ters ride at the booms and all the out ward appearance of a real warship is imitated. The siijierstrncture shows the cabins, staterooms, nicssrooms galleys, lava tories, berthings, lockers and fittings for the crew, and the manner in which the officers and enlisted men live is iliiistia'.?;!. On the superstructure deck aud bridge is shown the manner in v. hivh the rapid-tiring guns, search lights and boats are handled. The en trance to the conning tower is from the dec", nd in this are all the appur tcnar.ces that, the captain lias at his d:s:,..-al n-hen taking the shipinto bat tle and during the progress of a fight at sea. An electric light plant is in stalled and provisions made for heating the vi-sscl by steam. Jso ;in;.:h for figures. IVtails are im possible In the limits of a newspaper article. The general outline of the fx bii'it may te Mated in a comprehensive way by afiirmiug that with the excep tion that the crew is not up to the full number the buttleship Massachusetts is in evidence at Jackson park. Put in place of the tons of stores and am munition carried on the Massachusetts, the Illinois is filled with relk-sof naval warfare dating back to revolutionary days, a museum of paintings and other priceless articles from the naval de partment, an exhibit from the naval academy at Annapolis, and other dis plays that appeal directly to the peo ple who help I'ncle Sam keep np his naval war department. The Annapolis department is chiefly interesting as showing the curriculum of the school, but there are some pho tographs and autographs that collect ors would give vast sums to acrju ire. I a the exhibit of the naval authorities are relics. that crowds linger about with reverent awe. Old-fashioned cannons, ruined with rust, that en abled Commodore Perry to send that thrilling message, "we have met the nemy and they are ours." after the Lattle of Lake Erie; oil paintings of encan naval commodores from reT olnti'onarv days down to the lion hearted Farragnt, are there. Docu ments that prove the valor and un quenchable fire that burn within the breasts of patriot seadors whose home was Columbia are in evidence, wher the youth of the land may call and im bibe some of the ppirit of patriotism that induced great men to lay down their lives in the nation's cause. Belies of the civil war are common in this wonderful collection. The hydrographic surrey department is one of the interesting- places for landsmen. Here one may see models oftheledof tie sea. The attendant will point out the craters ct the feub jnerjrcd volcanoes and locate exactly 'the iite of the lost Atlantis. The ocean's depths are laid before the eye, while the secrets of the deep are un locked by the apparatus used by deep ea bounders who wear I ncle Sam's liadzre. In the ammunition department are shown the shells, cartridges, pro jectiles and other missiles of war. The apparatus for hoistin? the steel death producers from the hold to the frun deck is kept in perfect running- order, and the exercise of loading and train ing the amounted rifled cannon can be observed at almost any time between a. m. and 5 p.m. It's no trick at all for the marines and gunners to send a steel projectile from the ammunition room via the big: puns into the hull of a rival vessel five miles distant within TO seconds. The best tiiae to visit the Illinois Is not later than S:30 m the morning-, when the marines are put through their inorn-Eg-Ur-U. Pail De II. Sweexev.

Royal C'ortiuioz lliM-uues the Hulldlnff at the World Fmir. The buildings surrounding the Court of Honor are classic, says Koyal ("ortissoz, in the Century, but they are illuminated at numlierless points by picturesqueness and animation, by color and lightness. Taken in one comprehensive view, they have also something peculiarly modern in a sky line full of graceful modulations and abrupt, telling transitions: this in spite of the practical uniformity of the cornice height. The latter is not dis turbed; it is made, if anything, more effective by the soaring dome of tha FREXCH'S STATl'K OF THE BEPrBUC Administration building, the lower but equally graceful roofsof Machinery halL which are given further variety by little turrets on the pavilions at the corners of the building, and by the beautiful line which indicates the curv e of the rotunda ceiling in the Agricultural building. There is charm in the outline and in the mass, a mingling of dignity with piquancy in the Court of Honor as it is seen from the top of the Administra tion building. The charm is there when the vision is directed over the Machinery and Agricultural buildings, the former alive with winged Victories on its roofs the latter crowned with the Diana of Mr. St. fiaudens. It is there when the eye travels straight down the center of the court, and sees lietween the majestic facades Mr. French's noble statue of the Republic, and behind it the peristyle Waring above its massive columns the Co lumbus quadriga, a triumphal group looming superbly against the sky. Foreigner Are arprle!. "I believe the world's fair at Chi cago is the greatest enterprise of mod ern times." Lieut. Gen. Dunham Masse-, of the Pritish army, said after a stay in Chicago of ten days. "The buildings are immense and al well worth an inspection. They are filled with interesting things, too. Foreign ers, I believe, have some erroneous ideas concerning its magnitude and of the necessary expenses of seeing it. Pefore I went to Chicago I had gained my ideas of it from foreign news papers, and I fully expected to pay $i0 a day for my living ex peases in Chi cago. Statements that this would be a fair average had been published in English newspapers that I had seen. I was simply surprised when I found that these figures were two or three times too large. The exhibits mad at the fair wiil be of much value in giving foreigners who visit the fair a better idea of the immense resources of this country than they have had be fore." Ceorge Washington's statue, hold ing in the right hand a staff floating the stars and stripes, has been put in position in the Court of Honor. It is the work of St. Gaudens, is fifteen feet high, and stands upon a pedestal seven feet high. The tip of the flag staff rw(fhes eight feet above the head of the blatiie thirtv, feet in alb Victoria house.

It is built of staff a material which gives elegant and substantial effects without the enormous labor world's faxb child rex's auiLDixa. that would be required In using ordi nary materiats. It is decorated in colors, light-blua predominating. Among other decora tions are sixteen medallions of the children of all nations in their nation al costumes: Indian, Japanese, Dutch, French, Spanish children of every clime. The first floor contains the creche, a large, airy, cheerful room, where ona hundred children can be cared for at a time, while their mothers are out sight seeing. The assembly room Is also upon this floor, and this is, perhaps, where more interest will center than in any other part of the house. It ia furnished with chain, like any audi ence room, except that the seats are of several different sires. There is a platform from which will be given to the older boys and girls stereoptieon lectures about foreign countries, their languages, manners and customs, and important facts connected with their history. These facts will be told by experienced teachers and klndergart ners, who will then take groups of children to See exhibits from the coun tries about which they have just heard. In the assembly room there will also be dramatic, literary and musical en tertainments carefully adapted to suit the intelligence of varying ages. Dis tinguished people who are visiting the exposition will be asked to give famil iar talks about their special lines of work. Authors, artists, musicians and scientists will be called upon to min ister to the happiness of the fortunate little people. On the second floor kindergarten and kitchen garden departments will be in full operation for the benefit of moth ers and others interested in the best methods of instructing children. II ere will be also the cooking school from the Drexel institute in Philadelphia The Ilamona school for Indians is to be brought from Santa Fe, X. M. There are thirty pupils, and they will bring all their furniture and decora tions and will do their native basket weaving and other characteristic In dian work. There will also be a school for deaf mutes, where the interesting process of teaching to speak and to read from the lips will be shown. The library is as nearly a model one for children as can be secured. Por traits of writers for children, with autographs whenever that ia possible, are cpon the walls. The favorite home papers and the familiar magazines are to be found,, ready either to be merely gl&noed at or to be read at leisure. On the roof, above all this busy lesson life, is the playground. This is a lovely gar den, all inclosed with a wire screen for safety. It is full of flowers and plants, aud live birds are flying about in per fect freedom. Toys of all nations are on exhibition here, from the crude child trinket of the savage to the talk ing, walking, working playthings of France. And they are not for show merely, but for the children to play with. Greatest Show oa Earth. "The fair cannot well be described, it is so great and has so many features that are elaborate, valuable and in structive," said Robert P. Porter, su perintendent of the census. "It Is the greatest thing of the kind ever at tempted, and the people of the east should see It to appreciate it. The im mense buildings are worth a visit to Chicago in themselves. They literally form a city which is of oriental splendor and regal magnificence. Tbey have arisen as if at the rubbing of Aladdin's lamp. No one person ean ever know all the beauties they eon- tain, for there is so much that it will be impossible to see it alb But any one may get a general idea TJf the fair by atrip around the White City, and however long he may stay there will find enough to entertain and instruct him, whatever may be his tastes. No one should go with the idea that he will see it all, but no one can spend his time within the gates without fcet ting his money's worth." WaahiactM Moaaaaeat la Colas, World's Fair Director Fred W. Peck has at last succeeded in his plan of having a pile of the silver souvenir coins stacked up in an architectural way. Arrangements have been com pleted to begin building a reproduc tion of the Washington monument at the capital in souvenir 90-cent pieces. This solid silver model will be eighteen feet high and two and a half feet wide at the base. It will make a big draft on Treasurer Seeberger's stack of coins, but its appearance will be most attractive and is expected to excite an additional call for the souvenirs. The silver monument will be erected in the center of Manufactures building, under the great white clock tower. An at tendant will be placed in charge to sell the souvenirs. tVleeonsla Pearls wa View. What is said to be the finest collec tion of fresh water pearls ever got to gether has been placed on exhibition in the Wisconsin pavilion in Mines and Mining building. The finest speci mens run to dark blue, blue black, peacock, dark purple and dark green shades. Among them, however, arw some pinks, dark greens, pink greens, lavenders, browns and whites that have marks of great value on them. All these pearls were taken from mnav aela found in Wisconsin rivers. Indiana at the World's Fair. Prof. Putnam has added to hit In dian exhibit on the lawn between the leather exhibit and the south pond a small band of Navahoe Indiana, con sisting of a man and two women be longing to one family and a boy and a girl belonging to another family. They came from Fort Defiance, A. T., and are living in a small conical tent made of painted skins close to the intramural railroad. As they do not speak Eng lish they have nothing to say. Other members of the tribe may arrive in a few days. The Iroquois from New York, about twenty-five In number. r have arrived also. WORLD'S FAIR GOSSIP.

Cab, is repre sented in the Horticultural building by a large liberty bell made of oranges, between eleven and twelve hundred being used, and by an immense column containing 15.873 oranges. Both de signs excite much interest. Tax live stock committee of the na tional commission has completed its in vestigation of the live stock depart ment, and has made a report to Presi dent Palmer. The report says that tha affairs of the department are In excel lent shape, the buildings being all nearly completed, and the pavilion for stock exhibitions being especially serviceable. Another exhibit has been installed on the battle-ship Illinois which is full of interest to the student of the naval history of the United States. It is a full-rigged model of the steam frigate Colorado, which with its sister ships, the Franklin, the Wabash, the Niag ara and the Merrimac, prior to the breaking out of the civil war, consti tuted the most formidable fleet in the world. Tub Nebraska state building occu pies 8,000 square feet, being 00 by 100 feet and two stories high. It is sur rounded by porticos. ' All the rooms and accessories of a modern club house, including a post office, toilet rooms and cheek-rooms may be found. Nebraska is represented in all of the departments of the exposition and makes many special exhibits in the state building. TYPICAL FRANCE. ralt-ulaww's Sywibolle rife re nt tha World's Colombian Kapoaitloa. Tire commissioners of the French section of the Chicago exposition hav ing decided upon the execution of a symbolic figure for the commercial sec tion of the French exhibit, a statue of France was immediately thought of, and. in spite of the shortness of the time at their disposal, Mr. Roger Ballu, FALGCIBME'S STATVE, "LA rBAKCE." inspector of the beaux arts, asked the eminent sculptor, Falguiere, to under take the task. Mr. Falguiere accepted, and in twenty days he had accom plished the work honorably. We give a copy of the original drawing, for which we are indebted to our contem porary, LTllustration. France is represented seated and wearing a cuirass, the right arm being raised with a proud but pacific gesture. The left arm rests on a tablet bearing the inscription "Droits de lTlomme" (Rights of Man), while the left hand holds the national sword. The head, which is characterized by a calm and serene beauty, is ornamented with a diadem symbolical of liberty, equality and fraternity. The statue is seven feet ten inches high and will be erected on a pedestal nine feet tea inches high. It will orna ment the French section, which is very remarkable as a whole and will attract much interest. Bread-Making- at the Fair. New points and improvements are constantly being discovered even in the most familiar processes. Many of these were gained by housekeepers who at the Woman's building at Jack son park listened to Mrs. Rorer's lec ture on the art of bread-making with yeast. She gave the relative values of high and low yeast, and high yeast in its growth in bread was illustrated by the growth of the plant in soil. She said: "The idea of letting the sponge stand over night has gone out of date. Bread-making is easy if the cook will understand a few essential principles." Mrs. Rorer advocated the theory that six o'clock dinners were best for health, and said the idea of heavy meals at noon was against the action of nature. During the next lecture she made Dutch corn pudding with apricots, hominy croquettes and meat tauce. The Moat Popular BnUdlng-. It matters little whether the crowd at the fair is large or small. Woman's building always gets its share, which generally fills it to overflowing. The lectures which take place daily in this building show the educational features of the World's Columbian exposition, and a strong contrast to some of the features which are tb be seen in the park for which aa admission charge ia made. A PECULIAR FLOWER. It Cornea from sooth Afrira and Cannot Bo Wen ateacribed. Everything is big at the world's fair. fou see and hear there the biggest men, the biggest buildings and the biggest lies in the world. Even the flowers are big. Over in the green house there is one that opened the other day. There is nothing as big as it in America. It is 44 inches long and is the first of its kind ever bred in this part of America. ' It comes from south ern Africa and it is known as the Aros tolochia Uigas Sturtevanti, which in plain English means Sturtevant's big birthwort. The uncanny-looking blossom is hard to describe. It looks like a great many not very pretty things. Sir Samuel Vernon Steele, standing be hind it, said: "It looks like a lobster!" Mr. Hughes, standing in front of it said: "It looks like a parrotr It did look like both parrot and lob ster. It also looked like a musician's bag. a green gooseliner and a roquefort cheese. But it is a mighty rare and extraordinary-appearing blossom, mot tled green in color and banging by a slender rope from a net of leaves which its growth has spread under the glass roof of the greenhouse. It comes from southern Africa and was brought back here by the Stanley expedition. In Africa the flower sometimes grows to a length of seventy-two inches. The Arostolochia Gigas is akin to the plant known as the "Dutchman's Pipe." Brittaa Day nt the Fair. Great Britain will celebrate its day August SO, and those in charge of the ceremonies have the promise of the at tendance of Sir Richard Webster, one of the most celebrated lawyers in Eng land. Sir Richard Webster wss attor ney general under Lord Salisbury's government, is president of the British commission and has figured in most of the notable law coses in England. aBB&.r1B,8f5f?sk ifilaMfiSk!
