GREAT THREAT THE FAIR
Some of tbe Giants of ibc Giant of
Expositions.
A Temple of Chocolate, a Cheeee that
Weighs a Ton. a 96.000 Nugget of
o*ll a Plank Sixteen Feet Wide-
Some of the Fakea of the Fair-Odd
and Interesting- Incidents.
L A Chicago letter, shaking of the ex
position says:
The love of things enormous with which
Americans are credited should find satis
faction if not surfeit at the Pair. Abnormal
size seems to be the central idea of the
whole conception, and almost every buil
ding contains besides exhibits collectively
great single objects eclipsing all others of
the kind yet known. In structures them
selves, this type, is shown by the Manu
factures and Liberal Arts Building, which
possesses dimensions hitherto unapproa
ched in the history of architecture.
It is 1,687 feet, or nearly one-third of a
mile, in length, by 787 feet in width; the
ground floor has an area of over thirty
acres; the central hall is 1,380 feet by 880
feet, and this space is covered by one tre
mendous roof 287 feet high in the middlo
and wholly independent of central sup
port. The great trusses sustaining it have
a span of 382 feet. The building is three
times as large as St. Peter’s in Rome, the
pyramid of Cheops could be piled up in
side its walls,'and the Roman Colosseum,
which seated 80,000 persons, would occupy
but one-sixth of its space. To look even
casually at half the exhibits such a place is
out of the question; both mind and
body are unequal to it. The roof is reached
by elevators, naturally of the world's
greatest. As one ascends, the throng below
is no longer of human beings, but pigmies
moving in alid out of toy bazars. Upon
the roof is the great promenade, half a
mile in length. At the corners are
the four largest search-lights yet
made, one of which has an illuminating
power equal to that of 184,000,000 candles.
It throws . its light upon Mil
waukee, ninety miles to the north,
and to Lincoln Park, but fifteen miles
distant. It is almost a noonday sun.
Everything is immense—fearfully and
wonderfully immense. Over in the
Agricultural Building, aftross the Grand
Basin, one is reduced relatively to about
the size of a rat before a monster cheese
weighing 22,000 pounds. This was made
at one of the Government experimental
dairy stations in the Dominion of Canada.
It was brought to Chicago on a special
train timed to stop at various places en
route, and bears upon its outer case the
autographs and affectionate godspeed of
thousands of Ontario fanners who went
to see its triumphal progress. From Chi
cago it goes to the great English house of
Lipton & Cos., and will then travel over
the British Isles, the wonder of wonders
to the English yokel. It is rather re
markable, considering its size, that its
qualty should grade up, as it does, with
the best fancy cheese. In the Dominion
there are over 1,500 succesful cooperative
factories. The government has five large
experimental stations and does much to
advance the industry. Perhaps that ac
counts for the fact of Canada’s exporting
more cheese than the entire United
States.
A little distance on is another enormity.
This is a temple 38 feet high, made of
8,000 pounds of chocolate. Under the dome
sits a finely executed figure of Germania
after the famous bronze statue at the
Niederwald on the Rhine.
Near to one entrance in the Transpor
tation Building is the model, to all appear
ance real, of the largest steam hammer in
the world. It represents the one used by
the Bethlehem Steel Company of Pensylva
nia. The falling part of the hammer alone
weighs 125 tons and has a drop of feet.
With this hammer the largest armor plates
are made, exceeding in size, probably,
any manufactured by rolling.
Further on in the Baldwin Locomotive
Works exhibit is the last and greatest of
railway engines. This is a kind known as
a descapod, and is several sizes above tho
big engines called moguls. It has five con
necting driving-wheels on either and
weighs 100 tons. After the fair it will be
used on the Erie road. *
in the Mining Building may he sfeeu the
largest nugget of gold in existence, tho.
Maitland Bar nugget, which weighs 344.
78 ounces, contains 318 ounces of fine gold,
and has a value of 46,000. Several larger
nuggets have been found and are shown
by model, but this is the real metal. In
the same building is the largest piece of
coal ever taken out. The block weighs
twelve tons and has been shipped here
from Wigan, England, where it was
mined.
In the Machinery Hall is the enormous
Wcstinghouse electric lighting plant.
This is the largest single installation in
the world, and consists of twelve dyn
amos, each supplying electricity for 10,-
000 lights of 16-candlc power, or for 15,000
when forced to the utmost capacity. The
Wcstinghouse Company has also the larg
est and most perfect switch-hoard ever
used. This is made up of 20 dynamo
panels and 40 feeder panels.
Near by is a marvel in the way of a belt.
It Is of three-ply oak-tanned leather, B>£
feet wide by 308 feet long. One can scarce
ly imagine what giant machinery such
a belt is to turn, yet it has its use, as with
few exceptions these great things are ma
de under contract, and npt primarily for
exibition.
They represent the growing needs and
powers of the times.
In the Shoe and Leather Building the ob
jects most notable for size are three hides.
One, that of a bullock, contains 2SO square
feet of leather. It is split into four layers,
but left joined at the neck, and while so
intact each layer has been beautifully
dressed in a different color. The whole
may be fairly considered the higest point
yet attained in tanning and dressing.
Another is that of a walrus, and weighs,
tanned, 300 pounds. On account of its
great thickness of one and a half inches
the tanning required three years. The
third and largest hide tanned is that
of an enormoous elephant. This weighs
500 pounds is 20 feet from trunk to tail
and 10 feet at its greatest width. These
extremely thick hides are used by such
companies as the Meriden Britannia for
polishing plate. In the same building is
the largest piece of bark ever scaled, a
piece of hemlock bark 12 feet 5 inches by
6 feet 4 inches.
In the Forestry Building is a mahogany
log from Mexico forty-two inches square
and forty-one feet in length which,consid
ering l)oth' length and thickness, is very
remarkable. If the wood were ligured in
stead of havinga straight grain theonc log
would have a value of over S3O 000.
The largest plank in existence is that of
a finely finished piece ofCalifornia redwood
16 feet 5 inches wide, 12 feet 9 inches long,
and 5 inches thick. It is very doubtful if a
tree will be found to yield such another.
A cross-section of a California redwood
tree exhibited, 14 feet in diameter, shows
from its rings that it was already 6 feet 6
inches in thickness when Cloumbus dis
covered America.
In the Krupp exhibit, which has a
building to itself, is the mueh-talked-of
greatest gun of the age, a 120-ton rifled
gun, 16-inch calibre and 46 fet in length.
The gun is for land fortification and is re
ported to be destined ultimately for Italy.
It is said to be able to throw a projectile
weighing one ton a distance of twenty
miles. Iu the castle of Dover is an old
gun bearing the legend: “Swab me out
and keep me clean and I’ll carry a ball to
Calais green.” Modern war engines are
realizing the bravado of ancient times.
At the end of the Plaisance near the
Fifty-ninth street exit is the Ferris wheel,
the gigantic iron circle which supplies the
place of an Filled tower. Here the wheel of

One of the oddest of the Infanta's
American presents is an evening dress of
glass, which the Princess has promised
to wear in Si>ain the first opportunity
she has The glass fabric which is as
fine as >dik, soft, white, pliable, and lus
trous, was made by the Libby Glass Com
pany, and it was made up into a rich even
ing toilet by Mine Viotorine.
wrap of the fabric is silk, and the
tilling is glass fibre on thread. The waist
is trimmed with white chiffon. The skirt
is of the glass cloth trimmed with glass
braid sewed upon satin ribbon. Ten yards
of the material, valued at *25 a yard,
were required to make the dress. One
loom operated by a girl produced only
half a yard in a day.
The Infanta visited the glass works at
the Columbian exposition, and appointed
the Libby Glass Company glass-makers to
His Royal Highness the King of Spain.
BUNCO ON THE FLAISANCE.
A crowd of people have settled dowu just
outside the gates of tho Columbian ex
position whose members feel that’ money
must be got from visitors by some sort of
hocuspocus, whether or no. If the shekels
cannot be secured by sharp practice, they
must be taking away by brute force. The
Chicago police have been notified over and
over again of this state of affairs and have
repeatedly promised to break up the dens.
In response to the efforts of the guardians
of the law the places have been closed spas
modically from time to time, but the mo
ment there has been the least relaxation
the doors have been thrown open again
and the same old games have been resumed.
One of the most brazen schemes that
have been put into operation is called
“running through the battery.” This
game is carried on in a dirty canvas tent,
which bears the sign in large letters,
“Dime Musee.” Two women and three
or four men carry on operations there.
Their plan is something like this: A tall,
burly chap goesintothe street, selects
his subject and steers him into the tent.
There the victim is met by a woman,
who conducts him through the mazes of
the place to a secret apartment at the
rear of the canvas, while another woman
insists upon telling the victim’s fortune.
All this time the burly steer is close at
hand, either grasping the victim’s arm or
with hand on his shoulder ready to seize
him if a desire to escape be shown. If all
other devices fail, he is induced or forced
to grasp opposite poles of an electric bat
tery, and so stong a current is turned on
as to hold him powerless while his pockets
are rifled. Then the victim is commonly
kicked or hustled out, minus his money
and likewise his self-respect,
A DIME MUSEUM FAKE.
Of dime museums there are a great
many, and this is the Lecture one of the
barkers gets off: “Come right in, come
right in, ladies; come right in, gents; all
come in. This ’ere is the greatest school
of education on this earth. Mebbe you
don’t know it, but this ’ere’s what you
come to the world’s fair to see. ’Ere you
can see what you can’t see no place else.
Come right in t ladies; come right in,
gents; all come in and see the three-head
ed woman, as large as life and twice as
natural, jist the same as you see her in
the picture.”
The picture represents a woman with
three heads, the profiles of which were
intended to be classical by the dauber
who produced it. She wore pink tights
and red shoes, and in one of her single
pair of hands she carried a bouquet.
Among the schemes adopted bv the
directors of this mteresting exhibition is
this: Two cappers posing as visitors rush
out of the tent. One declares indignantly,
“I bet $5 that that thing ain’t genuine.”
“I’ll go you,” says the other man. “Where
shall we put up the money?” This
draws a crowd. The men wrangle for a
while, and finally the incredulous one
admits that he was probably wrong.
THE REGISTER CRANK.
The fair has developed some curious
cranks, says the Mail. One of the most
conspicuous is a gentleman who wants to
write his name in every register he comes
across. He is generally enthusiastic over
his own state and makes for the local
building as soon as he arrives at the
grounds. Once there he first locates the
register, squirts a gallon of tobacco juice
across the floor, and with a mighty sweep
of the arm scrawls an illegible name across
the register. This duty performed he
wanders into the next state building, finds
the register there and signs his name
again.
All told there must be several hundred
registers in use, for not only are they to
be found in state buildings, but also in ex
hibits. One man entered the Minnesota
building, and as he signed his name ex
claimed : “1 guess I’ve oeaten the record.
This is the two hundred and fiftieth time
I’ve signed my name. I guess more
people’ll know Jabez Dorcy after this fair
than ever knowed he existed before.”
It is amusing to watch these register
cranks. One got in the California build
ing. “Say, boss,” said he to the secre
tary, are these names sent back to bo
printed in the papers!”
“Well, I guess some of the correspond
ents do send them back.”
“Well, I’ll register then. I’ve registered
in fifty different books these two days. You
see, I’ve got friends all over the country,
and I want them all to see that I’m at the
world’s fair.”
In the woman’s building a group is al
ways to be seen a round the Welsh weaver
in the north gallery. She is a strong,
hearty-lookinggirl from Swansea, in South
Wales. Her tall, sugar-loaf hat awak
ens the astonishment of many, but the sto
lid Briton pays no attention to what is go
ing on around her, and drives her shuttle
wi th increasing activity, turning out yard
after yard of tho coarse bluish cloth used
by the country people there. Close by is a
•wax figure of a North Wales
peasant woman with her spinning
wheel and distaff- She also wears
the sugarloaf hat, but has also
the white ruffled cap beneath it and the
shawl made so familiar by the photo
graphs of Welsh character to be seen in
almost any large Dook store. Wales is
not. much more than one hundred miles
long, and yet if that wax figure were en
dowed with life she could understand
very little of what her southern sister
says. The South Welsh do not understand
very well what the North Welsh say,
though the writing is, of course, the same.
He was evidently a man acquainted with
the country, and thinking, possibly, of the
national eisteddfods who stood watching
that Swansea leaver one day this week,
he lost track of himself and began to
sing in a low voice, not supposing he had
hearers •
“I went to Pwhlell
To mingle in the dreadful melee.
I was nearly squashed Into a jelly, '
With people, treading on my toes.
There was Mrs. Shones and Edward
Morgans.
And Mrs. Owens of Glamorgan. . ,
All playing on the beautiful organs.
All over the ground.’!
He had just finished the first exquisite
verse when a guard tipped him on the
shoulder.
“Not allowed to sing here, sir,” said he,
quietly but firmly.
“I—I —beg—beg your pard’n,” said the
songster, confusedly, as he turned and
sneaked away, his face a burning-red.

HOKKY IK OLDTIN CANS
How an lagnmau* Ohio Negro !•
■akin* From 91 to 95 For Day.
jFrnm itie Olorinnati Times Star 1
Elliot Hplllin is an ingenious man of
color who claims to have amassed a for
tune by reducing the solder used in mak
ing tin cans to its original shape. Down
under the Ohio terminal of the Southern
road the remains of cans are strewn all
over the ground, and in pltota lie in
great heaps The old fellow was
hard at work tho other day when a
reporter invaded this can-strewn
territory. A sheet iron box 10 feet long,
2 feet wide and 1 deep served the purpose
of a furnace and a fierce wood fire burned
in the midst of what, appeared to be
about a hundred tin cans of ail sizes.
Spiliin busied himself keeping the fire hot
and examining his stork. He explained
that it required the solder from 120 cans
to make one pound. He gets from ten to
twenty pounds every day, he says, and
sells it Bt£ to cents to a Pearl
street tinsmith. The process he employs
is simple. The solder all melted from the
cans the latter are scraped up to one end
of his box or furnace, while the solder
and ashes are dipped up in a shovel and
put into a kettle to be reheated. Then the
whole mass is sifted, tho ashes easily
separating from the solder, which runs
out as bright and clean as when first put
on tho cans, it Is allowed to cool and
harden in cakes and are offered for sale in
that shape.
This miniature smelting establishment
is operated right out on the levee a few
yards from the water’s edge. The city’s
garbage boat is moored near by and here
is where the smelterer gets his tin cans.
He helps load and unload the boat and
this labor is taken in lieu of other con
sideration in payment for the cans. He
gets most of them before the boat pushes
off for the garbage consuming plant
down the river, but when he misses
any they are generally taken care
of and brought back to him. The city’s
garbage supplies him with more than a
thousand cans a day, so it can be seen tnat
he is kept pretty regularly at work. It is
his object to handle the cans as he gets
them, but occasionally they get ahead of
him. He generally does his smelting
during the morning and collects his cans
in the afternoon, but to keep them from
accumulating he sometimes smelters all
night long. He makes all the way from
$1 to $5 a day, and has kept it up for seven
years, although he has been in Cincin
nati only' one year. Spiliin was a laborer
at the great Argentine smelting works
at Argentine, Kan., until he conceived
the idea of getting into the business him
self. He had learned something about it,
and being intelligent beyond the ordinary
launched his fortunes in the venture. He
first operated at Kansas City, hut tin cans
grew scarce there after a time and he re
solved to seek a better location. While at
Kansas City, however, he made money
rapidly and this invested judiciously put
him in easy circumstances. He was still
eager to add to to his wealth, however,
so he pulled up stakes and came to Cinci
nnati. While his business does not pay as
it has in the past, Spiliin plods merrily
along, well satisfied with his lot.

A Woman Objects to the Ghoulish
methods of a Superintendent.
From the Philadelphia Press.
Trenton, June 18.—William H. Bower,
the superintendent of Riverview ceme
tery, in which Gen. McClellan is buried,
admits that people have been frequently
deceived by sham graves in that cemetery.
In this connection, Mrs. Carolino Jones
makes-a serious charge against the super
intendent in relation to the recent burial
of the body of her sister, Mrs. Sarah E.
Nicholson. There had been three burials
made in the family plot, all in separato
graves, and to make room for Mrs. Nich
olson's body Mrs. Jones ordered the bodies
of another sister, Mrs. Amanda Briggs
and her daughter to be reinterred to
gether.
See discovered later on, however, that
the graves of Mrs. Briggs and her daugh
ter had been opened, their caskets batter
ed to pieces and thrown on an ash heap,
and the bones shoveled into the grave of
Mrs. Nicholson, and that an extra dummy
mound had been made, but no grave dug.
The superintendent admitted that there
was a sham and that they frequently
deceived jteople by burying bodies in old
graves and raising the earth on the sod to
look like the mounds of newly made
graves. He also acknowledged that he
had put all three bodies in one grave,
Mrs. Jones has retained counsel, and a
suit will be entered against the cemetery,
