WORLD'S FAIR NOTES.
Pennsylvania's Exposition' building
will cost 75,000."
The Florida Horticultural Society has
asked for three acres in which to show
an orange grove and make a fruit dis
Indiana will have a $100,000 build'ng
at the Fair. It will not cost that much,
however, as a large share of the material,
all of which will come from that State,
will be donated.
The general passenger agents of twen
ty of the railroads entering Chicago have
organized a special association for the
determination of excursion rates to the
Exposition and for arranging facilities
for caring for the enoimous crowds of
Tisitors to the World's Fair.
The savants and historians of Italy are
now deeply interesting themselves in the
question of Columbus' real birthplace.
Five or six places besides Genoa claim
the honor, and among them is Bettola,
It is reported that proofs have lately
been discovered establishing Bettola's
claim, and that the town will erect a
monument to Columbus at once, and in
tends to send an envoy to the World's
Fair with these proofs and other Histori
cal documents of interest.
There will be not less than 25 restau
rants, as well as numerous cafes, in the
Exposition buildings. It is the intention
of the Exposition authorities to protect
visitors from exhoi-bitant charges.
France has asked 25,000 and The
Hague 11,000 square feet of space for
their picture exhibits alone. Until re
cently it was thought that the weakest
feature of the Exposition would be its
fine arts exhibit. Now, however, it is
believed that this will be one of the best
of all, owing to the fact that European
artists recognize in Americans the best
purchasers of their work, and they are
anxious to take advantage of the excep
tional opportunity which the Exposition
will offer them to show their paintings
to the American people.
The Royal and Imperial Commissioners
from (reat Britain, Germany and Den
mark, who spent a week in Chicago
recently, looking into Exposition mat
ters, selecting building sites, making
known their wishes, and posting them
selves generally on World's Fair maUers,
departed with most' satisfactory impres
sion, and with the announced determin
ation of making very favorable reports
to their respective governments, and of
exerting themselves to have them exten
sively, represented at the Fair. At a
banquet given at the Palmer house, to
the commissioners on the eve of their
departure, they spoke in liighpraise of
the prospects of the Exposition
The severest storm on record occurred
last week on the North Atlantic and the
English and Irish coasts. Great damage
was done to property and many lives
were lost. .
