World' Fair Notea.
The national asociation of woolen
manufacturers has decided to make
a united exhibit at the fair.
Japan has appropriated $630,765
for its representation at the expo
sition. A splendid Japanese ex
hibit is assured.
Nearly $1,100,000 of insurance is
now carried on the exposition
buildings and electric plant The
amount will be increased from time
to time as the construction pro
ceeds.
On the three evenings during the
exercises dedicatory of the exposi
tion buildings, October 11, 12 and 13,
tireworks to the value of $25,000 will
be displayed. The contract has
already been let
Chew Yu Ling, representing cam-
mercial parties in China, has ar
ranged to conduct a tea pavilion on
Midway Plaisance, has applied for
1,000 square feet of space in the
manufactures building in which to
exhibit Chinese silks, embroideries,
etc.
Visitors to the exposition can, if
they choose, drink Waukesha water
on the fair grounds at one cent a
glass. A company owning one of
the principal springs at Waukesha
has been awarded the contract for
furnishing the water, which will be
piped from that place to Chicago,
about 100 miles, and be served at 300
places On the fairgrounds. Plenty
of Lake Michigan water will be ob
tainable free, of course.
The Wisconsin world's fair board
has issued a circular to the farmers
of Wisconsin asking them to ex
hibit the very best products of their
farms at the county faira and state
fair of this year, aa the exhibit for
the world's fair will be selected to
a large extent from, the cereals and
other farm products which are
awarded premiums at those fairs.
Water for the exposition grounds
will be supplied from two pumping
stations having a combined capaci
ty of 74,000,000 gallons a day. The
largest of the two has a capacity of
40,000,000 and constitutes the exhibit
of the Worthington pump company
which puts in the entire plant, cost
ing $250,000, free of expense to the
exposition.
A project has been inaugurated
to have an international rifle shoot
at Chicago at some time while the
exposition is in progress. It is pro
posed that picked teama from the
U. S. army and national guard
compete with teama from other
nations.
The world's fair board for Kansas
is promoting a plan whereby it is
expected that the expense of erect
ing the exposition building for that
Btate will be borne by school
pupils. The proposition is to have
all of the schools in the state ob
serve a "World'a Fair Day," by
holding an entertainment with
music, recitations, tableaux, etc, to
which a mall entrance fee will be
charged. The proceeds are ex
pected to be sufficient to pay for

by the School Children of Kansas."
