The World's Fair.
Tho Esiiiiimoaux village is not
on the Midway I'iaisanco, as tho
oilier villages are, but is in ii corner
of the Exposition grounds and ought
to bo oaon by every visitoi to tho.
"World's Fair. This village attracts j
aiany visitors, und all are deeply j
interested in theslrango appearance j
and habits of its peculiar inhabit-j
anta. When these Kvpiinicaux were;
first brought there liiey wore their (
native costumes of lurs and skins,!
but these became too oppressive and
hot as soon as warm weather set in.
and they refused then lo wear them
any longer. When we saw them
they were wearing cocTer costumes,
which were more comfortable lbaii
tho furs in which they are elad when
in their native country. These,
strange people lookul o.a'tly like:
tho pictures ut them that are ri j
familiar to every school toy. Tlicy j
were short in stature, st-ut, with
dull flat luces and eoui blink- hair, j
Tim chief oicop.itioii or am i;-c meat ;

whips, hut ihis was no idle ainu.-e-
niont. On the contrary it was very!
profitable and they would keep itj
H) all day Ion-; without any ajijiar-i
ent luliguo. Kaeh man had a whim
with a la.-h about twenty feet loiij, j
which ho would wield with great j
dexterity in knocking upeveiy pieiej
of money that the viilors would i
place on the ground tor them lo,
strike at. In order to see their ilex
terous use of their long whips, ncar-j
ly every visitor would put on ihej
ground a coin a cent, or nickel or
dime) audit was wonderful to see!
with what accuracy ol aim t : j
Esfjiiimoaiix would strike it, and lhe
one who lirst struck it was entitled!
to it. No doubt each one ot themj
mado several dollars a day in tl.i.ij
peculiar manner. In this village:
Was a small house or cabin called.
"The Trading l-'ost", in whivh wcrej
oxuibttoa all sucii articles as ate
used in the la!ly liie of the K-ai-1
mcaux when at home. There wis,
a litllo wooden railroad on which;
was a sled drawn by dog i as there!
was no snow l'or the sled lo glide eiO j
and visitors could thus lake a ride I
iu an Ksiitinioaii.'C sled drawn by'
.Esq u i mean x dogs. j
Not t..r IV. '.ii the K(iii:iii :.ux vil
'ago are the building.-. creeU-d oy the j
ditloreni States in the I'liileu Siaie.-vj
These buildings are all in the mirth';
crn jiart ol the Kpo-.ition grounds .
and were intended not so much lor'
exhibits, but to serve as hcadijuur-
ters lor the leception ,-, visitor.- '
While a large majority of the Suites!
have creeled these separate bail I-!
higs there arc only three creeled by i
Southern Slates, and they are Vir- j
ginia, Florida an 1 Louisiana. Tl.cj
building creeled by Virginia is a re- j
production of Ml. Vernon and looks j
just like thai historic dwelling. The j
Florida building resembles the old
fort at St. Augustine, being i f Ike j
&a mo stylo of architecture. The I
largest and most conspicuous State ;
building is that of Illinois, lis high j
dome is seen at a Ion j di-tance and ;
attracts general attention. .IJecause ;
tbo Fair is held within her borders,;
tho Slate of Illinois has made a!
yroater cllort and expended nioie'
money than any other Suite. Her!
.Legislature appropriated -U').l'iir
to construct -this building and pre-I
pare tho exhibits in it. Indeed s !
largo and varied is this exhibit of
Illinois, that of itself, alone, it is
almost worth a trip to Chicago to j
300. It is a tonir.lcie cxi-n-itum 1
within itself and is a just source ol
prido to all citiens of Illinois who
visit it. One of the chief attractions
-n the Illinois btdl ling ii a large;
picture of an Illinois larm. This!
picture is about I'll feet square andj
iustead of being painted is made of
grain and grasses, and looks quite 1
roal and natural. It was greatly I
admired, ami yet as a work of art it
was hardly tibial to the moss picture j
of Chatham county, mado by Mrs. j
J. J. Jackson lor our State Kxposi '
tion, i.t Raleigh, iu l. 1. j
Of all tho other States Calitori iu'
bad tho next best building and ex
Libit, Indeed many visitois con
sidered it quite equal lo lhat ol Illi
nois. It certainly was a very at
tractive advertisement ol that far
distant .Slate. In her Statu building
California had a very large and
varied exhibit, representing all her!
products of forests, fields anil mines,
and all displayed to the best, advan
tago. Alter seeing this magnificent
exhibit every person, who is seeking
Si new home, would certainly l.0
tompted to emigrate to California, j
Tbo now Niata of Washington also '
Iiad a very creditable building, and '
her exhibits were very attractive.
Her building was quite peculiar in
appearance, being consti tu ted ol the
Ufuuks ot iiuiiiuii-c trees, soincwliit
liko a log cabin, which of itself wus'
a good advertisement of her vast
timber and lumber interests, l'ciin
sylvunia has a very lino building,
which is not filled with exhibits liko
tbo California ami Illinois buildings,
but is luxuriously furnished like a
magnificent private residence and is
intended as the headquarters ol a!!
Pennsylvania!;:; w ho may visit tho
World's Fair. Tin re they can meet
together and comfortably ic.-l alter
wearying with sightseeing. Near
the main entrance to this building
is the historic "Liberty Hell", which
first proclaimed tho iVch'.ralio'.-. f
Independence, and w hich was :
brought with great care from Phila
delphia. Near it always stands a
stalwart policeman carefully guards
i ng this pre. i, ins Revolutionary relic. '
It is a larger bell than we had sun
posed, and, as is well known, is
badly eraiked. New York, Ohio
and oiher States have very hand
some buildings, where their citizens '
can meet and have a home-like fool
ing. .Many d these buildings, and
indeed most ot them, cost more!
money than wasexpended altogether:
nil everything connc-lcd with tho
North Carolina exhibits. The small
r.uiu that was appropriated by our,
Statu was very judiciously Used in
collecting and preparing our exhib- .
its, and every dollar was made logo
as far for lhat purpose as it was
i:t)siblo. So lhat while our State
lias no fine building of its own, it,
bus very creditable exhibits in the
main Kxposilion buildings : w hereas
so much of Virginia's appropriation
wasexpended in the erection of her
Slato building that an inadequate;
amount was left for displaying her
exhibits, which consequently are
inferior to North Carolina's. j
lielwecu the State buildings and
tho main Kxposilion buildings are
the buildings erected by the foreign ,
countries, about l.veuty in number.
Noi many of these buildings were
open and ready for visitors at the
time of our visit, and tin refore we
cannot give a full description of
theui. Tho foreign building that
we found most attractive was lhat
ot India. In it was a rare and rich
collection of the finest specimens ol
jiotteiy, wood and iv.ry carving,
costly rugs and carpets, Ac. The
natives of India, who attended to
this exhibit, themselves attracted,
much attention, chid as they were j
i!i their peculiar eustiimes. Sweden '!
building vvr.s quite striking in its:
architecture and attracted the alien-
tion ot many visitor:.. ;
Soic.o -.li-uance from these build-:
ings and iu the southern part of the
ifi-oiiads is the Convent of La llabi- ;
da. or ralher it is a reproduction ot
the convent of that name in Spain,
in wlm h Columbus sought ."Leo r
when discouraged with iits cil'urts to
obtain help to go on his voyage ot
discovery. This budding is quite a
quaint looking structure, being in
the style of architecture prevailing
in Spain several cetitiu ics ago. In
it are exhibited many rare relics
connected with tho life an 1 history 1
;i' Cobiiiiblis. Ain.no; other tilings
we noticed tho anchor that is said
to have bclungc I to the I'anta Maria,'
and there were many other very mi
teiesting relics. In contrast vviihj
these relies ot tho old''!' time were
the exhibits ot the young Indians'
troiu thegovernuieiit training school ;
;.t I'arli.-le, Pennsylvania. These,
exhibits were i.i a building quite
near to tli? Convent ot La Pallida,'
and well illustrated tho Indian's
progress from barbarism lo civili'.i
tion. We saw there Indian youths,
whose fathers had been tierce sav,
ages, studiously learning the trades
of civilization Some were making
or mending shoes, while others were
doing other mechanical work, and j
all perfectly contented and happy.!
F.veiy visitor to tho World's Fairj
ought to take a ride on tho intra-;
mural rail way, which i.i an elevate I j
railroad within the grounds and!
running almost enlirly around tlieiu, I
and is lour miles long. l'or ten'
cents you can take it ride on this!
railroad, and, comfortably seated in j
a car, you can iu a few minutes ob
tain a view ut all the buildings and '
have a general idea of their respee j
live positions. This railroad is there-1
tore a great convenience, br it would
be too latititiing lo undertake to vv alk
all around the grounds. There are
four or five stations on this elevated
railroad, at which yo;i can get on or
oil' tho cars, and which were gencr
ally filled with sight seeis.

Anotiiku young North Carolinian
has been honored in another Slate,
and another proof is cited of the
fact that tlio rising generation of
North Carolinians is tho equal ol
any in scholarship and attainments
Or. J. A. Hodges, of Fayetteville,
has been elected professor of anat
