ATUSPICIOUS OPENING OF THE WHITE CITY Chicago’s New Pleasure Re- sort Draws Thousands of Visitors. CHICAGO, May 27.—The White City, the “Coney Island of the West,” was formally opened to-day to crowds of people that filled the streets for blocks in every direction from the entrance. The White City, in appearance, is not unlike the World's Fair at Chicago in | 8o far as the architecture and color of the buildings are concerned. It is a pleasure resort. combining the at- | tractive features that were seen on the Midway during the World’s Fair at Chicago and of the Pike at St. Louis. Located on the South Side. about a mile west of the old World's Fair grounds, the White City occupies about twenty acres, filled with buildings all painted white and of permanent construction. The buildinge cost something more than a million dollars, and will, in the future, be an attraction every summer. While not as large as the World’s Fair, the White City will accommodate from 25,000 to 40,000 people daily and will be open to the public daily and at night, including Sundays. 3 | neaa, | their B0LD ROBBERS INVADE A HONE Hold Up Noted Lecturer in‘ Her Dwelling in New York and Secure Valuable Booty THUGS WORK QUIETLY Mrs. Mary E. Lease, Former Leader of the Populists, Victim of a Daring Crime NEW YORK, May 27.—Mrs. Mary Ellen Lease, the lecturer and former Populist leader, was the victim of a daring rob- bery in her home in this city last night. ‘While one robber held a revolver with the muzzle pressing close against her temple and admonished her not to make | | an outery another searched her flat, gathering up valuables of every descrip- tion, and finished by taking a diamond pin which she wore at her throat. A roll of bank notes amounting to $110, which Mrs. Lease had just drawn from the bank, also was found by the robbers and carried away by them. The total value of the booty they secured is placed at 500. Mrs. Lease was reading in her sitting- room when she heard footsteps in the private hall outside and went to investi- gate. As she stepped acress the threshold a short, stoekily-built man seized her by the throat and forcing her against the wall placed the against her temple. “Not a word,” he said, and the order obeyed. don’t want to shed any blood,” con- tinued the thug, “‘and I won't if you will be sensible and keep.quiet. My pal is go- ing through your flat. That diamond- studded breastpin of yours looks pretty good and I guess I will take it.” Mrs. Lease handed it over without | even a word of protest. Through the door of her flat she saw the other robber packing away her sil- ver and such bric-a-brac as he took a fancy to. “Now, you've got some money, and vowve got to show me where it is” said one of the desperadoes. “It must be in that bag you had when you came in. Show me where you put it. No funny business now.” With the revolver at the back of her Mrs. Lease led him to her bed- room and pointed out her shopping bag. The burglar opened it, took the roli of bills and then marched her back to the hall, where he detained her with his revolver until the other robber had fin- ished with the silver and other things in the flat. When the flat had been plundered to satisfaction the men rushed out of the building and disappeared down the street. Mrs. Lease gave the police | a good description of the robbers, but they have not yet been found. — e —— FINGERS CUT OFF.—R. C.

The belief that the long expected naval battle is near at hand had its pArt in inducing a spirit of cau- tion.

Re- ports of restored harmony in the North- { western railroad fleld gave the impulse to the recovery and that subject has | played a large part in forming senti- | ment toward the market throughout. It was believed that the threatened trouble in that field lay at the bottom of the pressure upon the market and ! the announcement that trouble had been averted caused a corresponding degree of alarm among the considerble uncovered short interest.
