Bo¥or's CORRESPONDENCE BURKAT { COLUMBIAN EXPOSITION, Sept. 0, 180 The attendance at the World's Fair is booming now as it never las before and when the returns are all in for the currént week it will doubtless be found that all previous records, including that of the banner weck when Iilinois day was celebrated, will have been eclipsed. The records for that weck, ending Aug. 96, were 1,003,454. So far the attendance for the first tour days of the present week aggregate 707,491 an average daily attendance of 196,873.

More could doubtless Le paid but the council of administration has also decided to pay all the balances due on construs- tion eontracts. fhe present werk has Leen one of jollifieation and celebrations. New York state celebrated on Monday, Wisconsin on Wednesday, Pennsyl- vanin and Brazil on Thursday. Cali- forfiin and Utah celebrate Saturday which will also be Transportation day and Grand Army day. Superintendent of Admissions Tucker is figuring'on a 250,000 attendance Saturday and the special features promised should cer- tainly make good his anticipations. Scliool children also take part in de- dicating the new liberty bell on that day. The Higbee inquiry is finished aod d verdict ot guilty has been rendered. Mr. Frank D. Higbee, it will be re- membered, was one of the judges of awards who was charged with corrup- tion in the awards of prizes for exhibits. Other judges are likewise suspected of prostituting the work of the judges and it is said fresh evidence has been sub- mitted showing without a shadow of doubt that a combination exists to in fluence and sell awards, The great choral festival of tho ex- position began Monday when the Welsh Eisteddfod or gathering of Welsh sing- ing societies took possession of festival hall. Druidical services were held before the administration building Mon day morning, and immediately after the bands marched in procession to the hall» here at 12 o'clock the choirs opened their competition program. The competition lasted through the weck until Saturday.

Who ever passes the lathe of Charley Sontag, Jooks about and then insists on crowd- ing up to the glass partition. Sontag is one of the few thimble makers of this country. Sontag's Inthe is a mimic. When the thimble is in the chuck, it gives a marvelous imitation of the mocking Lird whistle which shrieks its blood chilling notes from the top of machinery lall. Tt does this when the thimble maker is "Kourl- ing" the end or top of the thimble.

The preliminary steps in the mnking of a thimble are taken in the eastern factery, for the machinery hall exhibit * has not the space to accommodate the machinery.

Wools make up a large portion of it. This exhibit is in the charge of Robert Lee. Said Mr. Loe: "we have about 4,000,000 sheep and about 500,000 goats. The sheep will average ahBut six pounds of fleece apiece worth 16 cents a pound in Lon- don, while the goats average fifty-two pounds of wool apicee worth 3b cents a pound in the same market. Our growers are paying special attention to the most valuable animal we have is ihe fat-tailed sheep. I have seen a single tail weighing fifty-two pounds and as it is pure fat it is very valuable. The hides, too, are much sought after. When it comes to game, why there is almost no end to the variety to be had. Of courso the big game, such as ele- phants and lions, is almost altogether in the north country up about Mashona- land.
