TWo FIs EXHIBITS. Properly speaking there are two fish exhibits —the one in the fisheries building and the main, exhibit of the United States fish commission in the government building. The former is di- rectly across the north lagoon from the latter, and arcades connect the annexes for the ex- hibits of live fish. The great aquaria are mar- vela. They havea water capacity of 150,000 gallons, cf which one-third is sea water for the marine fish. This water, condensed four-fifths, is brought daily in tank cars from the Atlantic ocean and lake water is added to make the Elizabethan age for its architectural design. Inside and outside, walls and furniture alike, are of good old English oak. The dining room isa reproduction of the one in the Duke of Argyle’s London residence. The reception room is a fac simile of the one in which Lord Crewe welcomes visitors in his Staffordshire castle, the dining table a duplicate of that from which her majesty, the queen, makes good di- tion wait on | appetite while occupying Vindsor castle. ‘The Ceylonese structure represents the arch- itecture of that island 2.000 years ago, and the court which fronts it is faced with carved pil- lars of real ebony. the berth deck.

Fishermen today found much to interest them in the anglers’ pavilion. Here are speci- mens of outfits that canbe bought for a five- dollar bill and others that would require the favestment of fifty times that amount. There are specimens of hooks and flies and rubber frogs and other species of bait with which the fisherman allures his prey, as well as a mis- cell: neous assortment of tackle and boats for its porch and look serenely across the boule- vard and into the reception room of the British commissioner. The Russian bear fails of rep- resentation among the foreign structures, but a number of patriotic Poles, who possess certifi- cates of American naturalization, have put up a little rendezvous of their own, from the portals of which the dignified countenance of Kosciusko, | surmounted by the white eagle, the emblem of Polish liberty and emancipation, looks down upon ths visitor. the reward of good conduct.

Alabama is represented by an old-time southern mansion. The structures of Maryland and the wildest of wild animals from the thickets of Africa and a collection of other novelties that is absolutely bewildering. Each attraction is attended with a greater or lesser number of natives of the countries rep- resented, some exemplifying their native in- dustries, others giving entertainments after the fashion of their own lands. In the Turkish village are over a hundred subjects of the sul- | tan in their picturesque attire, busily engaged | in weaving rugs and tapestries that represent leaders in the world of labor organizations, devotees of social and economic science, min- isters and laymen of all faiths from the evan- gelical to the Mohammedan, advocates of Sun- day rest, health officersand agriculturalists, and so on through an almost endless list, will gather from the four quarters of the universe, each in their respective section, and consider the ques- tions that particuiarly relate to the particular here in which they live and move and have ir being. It was not until three years later that Chi- cags took up the matter in earnest, Finst OFFICIAL MOVE.

Naturally the personal relics of the great queen, to whom the hearts of all American women go out,are tue centers of attraction; but the entire Spanish woman's exhibit is of interest and is singularly comprehensive. fe shows the simple industries sof the women of the Spanish f as well as the greater efforts the Spanish farms, Near Spain's exhibit is the exquisitely carved Pavilion of the women of Cevion, the Japanese woman's exhibit—including the Japanese lady's Doudoir—and the section devoted to the women of Italy. The great feature of the latter is, of eourse, the wonderful collection of historic Jaces belonging to Queen Marguerite. There are also comprehensive collective exhibits from the women of the Argentine Republic, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Cape Colony, France, Ger- many, Gnatemala, Greece, India, Japan, Mex- ico, Netherland: w South Wales, Norway, Paraguay,/Russia, SiamandSweden. The British woman's section at the north end of the build- ing is particularly striking, and the showing by the training school for nurses, of which the Princess Christian is the patroness, forms one of the most interesting and valuable exhibits in | the woman's buildicg.

Curcaso, May 1.—Fitting recognition has been made by the Columbian exposition of the elevating influence of music, vocal and instru- mental. There are two structures within which the great singers, the instrumental soloists and the orchestras of the world will be heard almost daily for the ensuing six months. One is music hall, a graceful structure occupying acommand- ing position on the lake front, fashioned after the style of the Roman Corinthian renaissance, with sweeping colonnades and impressive arch- way. From its windows today the visitor looks eastward upon a vast expanse of wave and sky, westward upona veritable glimpse of Venice: spacious basin, crossed by numerous arched bridges, and its fountains playing in the sun- light; a plaza dotted with ornamental statuary, and a grand court formed of the group of noble ructures in the immediate viemity.
