While It did not rain yesterday , all day
lone the 'Weather ' had a Ihreatenlnc aspect.
A party of editors , accompanied by their
wives , representing the Trade Press asso
ciation of Chicago , visited the exposition
during the forenoon and toured the build
ings and grounds. At noon they lunched
at the Philippine restaurant , the guests of
the exposition , where speeches were de
livered by President Miller and others.
After the 'meal the members of the party
posed for a group photograph , after which
they resumed their tour of the exposition.
Races 'were scheduled for the afternoon ,
but owing to the heavy rains this feature
was declared off. The same course was pur
sued with reference to the band concerts
of the mornlnc and afternoon.
On account of the weather , no attempt
was made to remove the Indians to the
Bluff tract , nur did the concessionaires do
a thing In the way of opening their doors ,
though at a few places private audiences
were given the visiting editors that they
might have an Idea of some of the amuse
ment features of the show.
The ambulance of the Emergency hospital
was about the only thine on the exposition
grounds that did a good business during
the dav. This vehicle was kept on the gen
n largo portion of the time , responding to
calls from persons who had contracted severe
colds durlnc the damp spell of weather or
had met with minor accidents that required
medical attendance.
" ? MIDWAY
City Ailmliilfltrndnii Turn * Out In
Force to Do Iln Duty AIUOIIK
the FronliM.
The hospitable ( Midway acldoms shows
more hospitality to a company of special
guests than It did Saturday night to the
members of the city council and other mem
bers of the city administration. Nor doe the
Midway often entertain people more appre
ciative of Its manifold delights , The fun
began early and ended early , sometime before
breakfast , to the beat of everyone's recollec
tion , though no one who was In at the finish
can remember very clcarty how or where
the end came.
The officials were under the guidance of
Councilman Karr , who represented the direc
tory of the exposition , and be showed a sur
prising familiarity with llfo us It Is lived
by the cosmopolitans of the noisy street. He
had informed the heats at the various stop
ping places that his party would number 110 ,
but ho had no difficulty In smoothing the way
for ICO , to which number the party bad
swelled before Iho evening was half over.
To narrate In detail what happened would
be to present auch a thririlng tale that the
newsboys would desert their yellow-backed
novels and sit down to rend the paper they
should be carrying to anxious readers. But
It cannot bo kept n secret that Mayor Moores
was with difficulty restrained from showing
the crowd that he could rldo the donkey In
Hagenback'ti If ho wanted to , nor that the
diving show pleased Stuht so much ho tried
to buy the whole outfit and move it down
to Ninth and Homer streets for the benefit
of the people who have to walk half a mile
for their water , The only unhappy Incident
of the evening occurred when President
Rlngbam Invited one of the Indians to con
sider himself a member of the council. The
Indian drew himself up proudly , turned his
hack on the crowd and sent his squaw for
a war club. There was nothing for the cha
grined councltmen to do 'but ' overcome their
mortification by casting themselves Into the
excitement of the Cuban village.
About the time the street lamps and el root
cars went off duty the tour of official duty
was ended and the mainsprings of the
municipality wended their several ways
home wearily , but still ilnglng ,

Some days ago it was discovered that
parties were catching the flsh from the La

were ordered to arre.it all parties caught In
the act of catching the flab. For a short
time after the Issuance of the order It
was thought that the poaching had been dis

discover that the flihlng Is being continued

City OniclnlH See the Aiiinnrntcnt I'en-
tnrcii of the I5xi > i > nltloii.
The city officials were on the Midway last
night and every exposition visitor was owaro
of the fact. These city officials wcro not
loud , yet they had all kinds of fun nnd did
not start fop their homes until the lights
wcro turned off at midnight.
Most of the city officials went out to the
grounds on the Sherman avenue car line and
consequently they got off at the east gate
and the first place that they struck for was
the Sod House , where they dined with Mrs.
Bowser. Having satisfied the cravings of the
Inner man they started out on their tour ,
having been Joined by their associates , who
journeyed to the grounds by some other
route.
The first stop that the aggregation made
was at the Wnragraph , where the members
saw the marching columns and the fight
between the American and Spanish vessels
in the harbor of Manila. Next they wont
across the street and1 after listening to the
spieler for a few moments went inside the
Hawaiian village , where they were enter
tained by the dancing girls and the members
of the double quartet , all of whom appeared
in native costume. Drilling back , the party
went through the Moorish palace nnd studied
biblical history by gazing upon statues of
men and women who lived prior to the
Christian era. Then they took a look at the
Passion Play and struck out for the Streets
of Cairo , where Colonel Nlncl had promised
a real wedding with Assam Mohammad and
iMIss Zarlfa Harrcnn as the contracting par
ties. Assam being sick the nuptials had to
be postponed , but nevertheless a battle of
confetti was put on for the benefit of the
distinguished visitors , who threw the bits of
colored paper about with much gusto nnd
snap as though they were a lot of college
boys. Before leaving the place they all , took
a camel ride and then wont back to the Ger
man village , where they shook hands with
the fat man nnd partook of another lunch.
Retracing their steps the members of the
party went down the street nnd dropped in
on the Naiads In the Fountain. The Illusion
pleased the men who draw their salary from
the city and after seeing all they could and
wondering how the show was operated they
struck out for the West "Midway. "
Having crossed the viaduct the rounders
broke for the Giant See-Saw and filling one
of the cars started skywards , going after
what they termed a touch of "high life. "
Not dcElring to give one place aH of their
patronage , the Chutes cafe was the next
place visited , where another lunch and the
accompanying liquids were bolted down. An
other start was made and the entire party
landed at the Beauty Congress , where thfiy
jollied the girls and praised their good loolfs
and then got out , only to go Into another
place , which was the deep sea diving pavil
ion. There the members of the party watched
the work of raising vessels and praised the
show , A ride on the Merry-Go-Round was
next In order and onto the horses , camels ,
donkeya and other animals the sedate gcn-
tlomen bounded. They swung around the
ilrcle a few times , settling their numerous
lunches , and then left for the Scenic Rail
way , where for half an hour they shot up
and down the hills and around the curves
until they were dizzy.
Having had a swift tlmo the members of
the party felt the neceeslty of another
lunch and to the Philippine cafe they went ,
where there was more eating. After It was
finished they went to the Artists' Studio
and critically examined the work of paint
ing the nude , which , by the way , proved to
bo a very agreeable pastime. Wanting to
see something more exciting , the city law
makers stopped Inside Hagenback's and
watched the trainers put their lions and
tlgeiB through an exhibition. Having seen
enough of this , all 'hands ' went to the flro-
works and occupied reserved seats while
they gazed upon the battle between the
American and Spanish fleets jn Manila bay.
The hour was getting late and some of
the officials wanted to go home , A vote wan
taken and by a big majority It was decided
to see more of the -Midway and at It they
went. They started In on Hobson Sinking
the Mcrrlmac and followed the course of the
vessel us It worked its way Into the mouth
of the harbor at Santiago , They remained
until after the explosion and then , being In
a warlike mood , they crossed the street and
looked at the panorama of the battle of
Lookout Mountain , after which they re
traced their steps and took a trip through
the tunnels and caverns of Darkness and
Dawn , meeting the good and bad spirits.
Wanting to see something funny , the Old
Plantation was visited , where the member *
of the party compelled the colored people
to enact the camp meeting sketch a couple
of times and the Cakewalk a half a dozen.
Port of the party wanted to see the Marionettes
nettes and all went along. They laughed nt
the little figures and made them dance and
dance again and again. Not having seen
enough , Lunette was visited , where the city
councllraen and others marvelled at the
young woman moving through the air with
out any visible support. At the Cuban Vil
lage Valentino was Interviewed and the
theater was attended , and then another
lunch was swallowed at Sctilltz , and just
as the guards were closing the gates the
party clipped through and caught the last
car for down town.
A new feature ha been added to the Kast
Midway that Is attracting a great deal of
attention. It Is the Hungarian Gypsy en
campment of Gypsy fortune tellers , repre
sented by eight beautiful Romanics of
various nations. They are the most famous
fortune-tellers of their class In the United
States and hnvo been gathered from all
parts of the country to grace the village.
Their readings ore but 25 cents and the
camp Is crowded all the time.
Notwithstanding the bad weather of the
last week the attendance at Hagenback's
animal show on the Midway has been such
as to gratify the management , considering
the small number of people who were on
the grounds during the rainy days. But
then everybody who visits the exposition al
ways takes In Hagenhaek's. A big feature
will bo Introduced this week In the shape
of the celebrated orang-outang , catured less
than n year ago In the Island of Borneo.
This famous beast has hardly yet been
tamed and furnishes an endless amount of
entertainment for all who sec him.

Slonx Inillnnn DlNplny n Grcnt Kond-
iicnn for llunitltul Treatment.
When the Sioux Indians first nrrlved nt
the exposition they fought shy of the Emer
gency hospital , but now they are taking to
it like a lot of ducks to a puddle of muddy
water. No matter how slight the ailment
or the accident , the Indian goes to the hos
pital , and he invariably rides in the ambu
lance instead of walking.
Yesterday the Indians made a great run
on the hospital and during the day there
were no less than twenty of them in the
wards. However , none of them were suf
fering from injuries or sickness that de
manded detention , nnd after being treated
were hauled back to their camp. The pre
vailing ailment was cholera morbus , resultIng -
Ing from eating watermelon and peaches ,
of which they are all exceedingly fond.
Then again there were any quantity of rusty
nails which penetrated their bare feet and
gave them considerable pain. Since the rain
the Indians have laid aside their buckskin
foot gear and have tramped around the
grounds In their bare feet. Yesterday they
found any number of nails with the pointed
ends sticking up and In about every Instance
they went against these and came out of
the conflicts , disfigured , but still In the
ring.
