THE CITIZEN
The Big Exposition.
Discounted by all its many visible im
perfections. the Chicago l air is to-day
vastly the grandest tribute to civilization
ever presented in the world s history. Its
incompleteness is painfully impressed upon
the visitor in every department, but these
blemishes will gradually lessen with each
dav, and a month hence there will be little
to mar the most imposing spectacle ever
witnessed by any people, ancient or mod
ern.
It would well repay the student of pro
gress to come from any land, however dis
tant, simply to see the great composite
city of the world's grandeur presented on
the Exposition grounds, without entering
any of the gigantic temples crowded with
the handiwork of every clime and the
achievements of science. Jfo such realistic
panorama of the world's architectural mag
nificence has ever been given, or even ap
proached, in all the varied records of the
past ages. It has revived all the splendor
of the ancients and all the advancement of
the present, in one group that blends _in
sublimest lustre the most exquisite attain
ments of mankind.
A delightful boat ride ride throngh the
lagoons of the lake, which trace their sil
ver lines through the entire grounds, gives
the visitor in a single hour the best view
of tho wonderful architectural beauty of
the admirably grouped buildings, and that
followed by a circuit of the entire Fair on
: an elevated electric railroad completes the
most poetic and inspiring picture ever seen
bv any people. Not only is the architec
tural grandeur of the world reproduced in
bewildering conjunction, bnt the Midway
Plaisance is the world itself in minia
ture.
It is not presented by the delineation of
the artist, but by the people themselves,
living iu their own homes according to
their varied custom*, producing their own
arts and curiosities, clad iu their own cos
tumes, speaking only their own tongues
and enjoying their own amusements. I
yesterday witnessed a Chinese opera, a
Turkish tradegy, an Algerian exhibition of
song and dance, all in theatres constructed
in exact reproduction of their home the
atres: and every phase of humanity, from
the Hottentot to the sons of England, pre
sents its homes, its industries, its customs
within a mile's stroll among the jostling
crowd of every known costume and
tongue.
Any intelligent American, or visitor of
intelligence from any land, could devote
weeks to the external beauty of the Expo
sition and leave the task unfinished. I
could devote a month to the most interest
ing study of the varied nations of the
world on the Plaisance, and know more of
foreign peoj.les than could be learned in
years of travel around the globe; and one
view from the sublimely columned lake
front across the shimmering lagoon
toward the Administration Building, or
from the broad plaza by the colossal foun
tain, presents the combined architectural
granduer of six thousand years in realistic
sublimity. Nor is this enchanting yiew
presented in minature. The buildings
equal or surpass in stature the temples of
the Romans, the Grecians, the Corinthians,
the Moors and others which are imitated,
and the whole picture is like the Rome
that Augustus transformed into marble.
The Exposition is far from completion,
as is visible at every step in any of the ex
hibition buildings. There is not one ot
them that even approaches order, and the
streets, the electric lights and all the
countless details of the most gigantic affair
of the world's history, tell the story of un
finished work and display the vexatious
embarrasmont suffered by running the Fair
as an exhibition when the workman jostles
the visitor at every turn; but with all these
imperfections, there is a thousand fold
more to see than a visitor of a week, or
even a month, can take in with satufac
tion. Of course, there is much to inspire
the chronic growler, but the visitor who
complains of anything about the Chicago
Fair must have a maw-worm of ceaseless
activity.—A. K. M. in Phil'a. Times.

further informed me, which insures success

to peal the rind very thin, getting just the

How to Avoid Spring Fevsr.
Spring fever, or that "tired" feeling, is
occasioned bv an excess of heat in the hu
man both*. The diet necessary to maintain
animal heat during winter, is no longer
necessary during the warm months of
spring and summer, and a change is not
only beneficial but necessary. To avoid
any unpleasant results, and to keep up vi
tality the system should be stimulated by
the use of a little pure whiskey. Physi
cians throughout the country unite in pres
cribing and recommending tho

are tlie handsomest class of horses on earth.
• Mohican K lng's dam was sired by a son oi
Hainbletonlan (io) called Mohican, who was the
sire of five great race horses, showing that the
blood lines which go to make up Mohican
King's remarkable pedigree have and will train
on, trot on and win on, besides being famous
for their beauty and tine finish.
I started Mohcau King In tlve races last fall
getting a piece of the money every time, and
won the largest purse and best race he started
In, which certainly ought to be a credit to any
hors ■ for the tlrst season. He ts like his sire,
a beautiful dark chestnut, very handsome,
heevy boned, well muscled, and has grert lung
power. His colts are all stamped closely after
nimseU, speedy and line looking.
This horse will make the season of 1593 in

STORM BIRD is half brother to the
mightv Kremlin, 2:073, king of trotting

brood mares that ever lived, l'ach are the
dams of stallions having one hundred in the
list. The two together have OX4 of their
descendants in the 30 list and hold 43 ot the
world's records. He is a grand individual
and a trotting-bred trotter, combining in
his pedigree the two most fashionable and
intense trotting families in the world. He
is a rich cherry bay, 16i hands high, perfect
ly sound, strong and handsome.
He will be found at my barn, 3J miles
northeast of Prospect, the three first days of
