On another night a missionary among: the gamblers died suddenly: and a. boy’s body was washed upon the shore near the Exhibition grounds, and dnrgng' the day In a cab sat a clever chiid actress on her way home after the performance, turning into a side street a man run out and climbed up behind the vehicle. when the rig stopped and the occupant alighted he tried to seize her, bent on kidnapping the prize, but was prevented from doing so by a bicyiist, At all the principal corners is the man who wants to sell you something for nothing, tooth powder, electric belts, small- wares. razor paste, and a solution that will heal a wound even if it pierces your wrist as he shows you by drivmg a carving knife through his wrist and holding: it up to the astonished crowd, then he withdrew the knife and applied the solution healing the wound instantly. Down in the city the number of people i8 very great, all moving about under the influence of a feverish excitement doing manv things which they consider permiss- ible hecause it is Fair time. There is the male and female going out into the night to prey on their fellow creature; there is the visitor moving along trying to hide an interest in what he sees, and there is the citizen who has left a home to proudlv move along the streets and enjoy some of the admiration and awe the visitor shows for his city and his achievements, Then the cars started with human freight sitting, standing and hanging on every conceivable space. and slid into the City with a man on front seat telling the people through a horn of things to see, and scatter- ing their freight at every corner. It is after the bands have played “God Save the Queen” that one catches some idea of the number of pe0ple scattered over the grounds, for it is when they gather just outside of the gates, waiting for cars. j umnied together, continally rounded up by policemen, laughing, yelling, pushing and charging the cars as they slide 11 , that matters become uncomfortable and anger- ous. Some are lifted into the seats, some are pushed back. Many manage to get a foothold on the steps and platform as did Jimmy Williams one night, who as the crowd ressed forward, was pushed OE and fel under the wheels of the trailer WhICh passed over his body killing him instantly. Over in the ring the new feature added to already seen was Ida.

The amusement side of the Exposition was without a doubt greater than ever. The Olia-de-Plaisance, the Streets of Cairo, gratified those who visited the Midway. Here you saw Egyptian and Algerian dances. Cuban lady contortionists, Eastern sword fighters and Chinese actors. The lion-tamer. the performing bear, the ele phants, camels and pythons. One of the latter nearly 15 feet long escaped one day. Then in Hagenbach’s Wild Animal Show you saw a boxing kangaroo, performing Eguars‘ educated dogs“ and donkeysfl .1'.-.‘-- _--AI__-_ 1" W'ithout doubt the exhibit that was the greatest wonder and freak, by the fact that it was new, was the Mammoth White Ox “ Fergus ” which weighed 3870 pounds, stands nearly six feet high, girths twelve feet two :inches and is twelve feet long. Exhibitions of Marconi’s System of Wire- less Telegraphy were also a feature of the Fair, to new and old patrons, and an exhibit of Xâ€"rays, although an old amuse- ment to many, drew large crowds 'of people Those who saw the dis-play of the wonderful power of Tripler’s 'l’i uid air and watched a kettle of water boile on a cake of ice were. fortunate, as were also those “ho witnessed ‘ the submarine mining explosions. Leaving the exhibitions and achievements of the year, you assed to other things that were not on he grounds at former years. Lundy’s Ostrich Farm, which is a new industry in Canada, came in for a large share of attention. These are some ot the things which were new and made up that branch of the Fair which was of an educa- tional advantage to its patrons. Many other things of this nature were on the grounds but did not command the attention of the general public.
