MILITARY CAMPS. , Accommodations For the Soldier Boys at the Pan-American Exposi tion. Many military organizations intend to visit the Pan-American Exposition during the summer. Arrangements have been made to provide first class accommodations for them. The Exposition will maintain a per manent camp within the grounds for the accommodation of about 200 men at one time. This camp will be supplied with tents floored, cots, buckets, basins, pint cups, light, water and pinks, for the use of which no charge will be made. It will be necessary for vlsltlnar organ izations to furnish their ownTlankets and subsistence. There will be no accommodation for cooking In this camp, but the visitors will no doubt be able to make satisfac tory arrangements with restaurants on the grounds at reasonable rates. It is expected that organizations tnk Ing advantage of these camp privileges will, at such time as may be agreed upon beforehand, give military exhlbl tions without charge In the Stadium. Bands In uniform will be admitted to tbe grounds free. Organizations using this camp will pay one general admls slon per man when they enter the grounds and must be governed by the rules and regulations laid down by the Exposition Company. On account of the large number of organizations now applying for camp facilities at the Exposition tbe use of this camp will be limited to a period not exceeding six days for any one or ganization. Large bodies of troops visiting the Exposition must be quartered outside tbe grounds, where a large camp for this purpose has been established. Major Charles J. Wolf Is In charge of (be Military Bureau, and be Is kept rery busy these days furnishing Infor mation to organizations Intending to visit tbe Exposition. The little bee Is very busy at the Pan-American Exposition, gathering and storing honey. In glass hives in full view of visitors. A searchlight on the Electric Tower of tbe Pan-American Exposition casts raja for a distance of CO miles. ACCOMMODATIONS FOR VISITORS IN BUFFALO. Biadnll of Hotels, Boarding and Booming; Hoaaes, Besides Many Pri vet Honaea, a the List. So much has been said and written about the ability of the city of Buffalo to care for the crowds which will at tend the Tan-American Exposition this summer that a few facts and figures will be appreciated by the general pub lic. In the first place, there are listed more than 200 hotels, which will give accommodation to 30,000 people; there are 650 boarding and rooming houses, affording accommodation for 18,500, while 7,000 owners of houses, most or whom never before huug out their latchstring for a consideration, have signified their intention of opening their houses (or the accommodation of visitors to Buffalo this summer. These 7,000 homes will accommodate at least 100,000 visitors. The Exposition Company has arrang ed to furnish tent accommodation on the Exposition grounds for 250 uni formed men. There are also two com panies arranging tent systems which will afford additional accommodation outside of rhe grounds for 1.500 or so. In addition to all this, there are a large number of buildings throughout the city now being remodeled and con verted into hotels, the plans of which are not far enough along to afford an accurate description or to estimate ac commodation at the present time. It is safe to estimate the present capacity of the city of Buffalo to accommodate 150,000 strangers. To this may le add ed accommodations for at least 50,000 in the surrounding towns, such as Ton awanda. La Salle, Niagara Falls, Lock port, Wllliamsvllle, Gardenvillo, De pew and Lancaster, all within a rfiort trolley ride of the city. Kates In hotels range from $1 per day upward. As ridiculous stories have Wn circulated in regard to exorbitant hotel rates, It Is well to note the r:it that have been established at the Iro quois, the most expensive hotel In tin city. These are, for one In a roon without bath. $3 and upward; for twt in a room without bath, $5 and upward thus making the minimum rate $2..V nor individual. The rate for a room with bath for one person is $5 or for two In a room ?7.50. This is on the Lu ropean plan. Of course there are roomi and suites of rooms In this hotel foi much higher rates for those who wish to nay them, but the prices here given m th hichpst in the cltv for hotel fl!M a.MaA- accommodations as the term is onllnn rily understood. A nuinlier of local reliable ngencie are engaged in locating visitors in homes in the city. These can be relied upon as being honest, straightforward and efficient They ore composed of business men of Integrity, who .will carefully protect strangers In the cltv and visitors may feel assured of cour teous treatment and safe conduct to ac commodatious which have received careful inspection.
