hundreds of carloads of exhibits which
were to come from the Columbian Ex

Golden Gate park have been seriously
delayed by the weather. There has been
great difficulty experienced in getting

niut..laa had tn hn overcome until, even
though the buildings in San Francisco
are practically ready for tneir recepuuu,
the bulk of the exhibits which are to be
made by foreign nations have not yet
arrived.
Jt has been found necessary, therefore,
to postpone the formal ceremonies of
opening the Exposition for a few days,

first day of January, however, an infor

Speaking of the great Jiirxn wnwi wr
gests mention or a very lnieresuug iu
which took place in
connection with ita construction the
dtherday. During a temporary lull in
4i, ....irk nf nnttinir nn the sniderlike
41117 m " . o r
spokes of this wheel, a man was observed
to clamber up in tne mass ot uiuoc
surrounding the base of the superstruct
ure. He was at first supposed to be a
workman, and no special attention was
paid him. Presently, however, he clam
bered out on one or tne lower Bpuaca.
The superintendent of construction,
catching sight of him, asked what he
wanted up tliere. ine auventurex
made no response, but continued his as
.it mrnrkinff his way inside the
urinlwrv with catlike agility. The
superintendent ordered him down. The
only answer ne got was u. myn
il.in tn nmA and fetch him. He kept
on climbing, and where the periphery
has not been placed ne nan to siiuouowu
the big spokes until he reached the chan
nel irons. Crossing on these to the next
spoke, he worked out to the periphery,
aud proceeded as before.
By this time quite a crown uau
gathered, watching the progress of this
a foiinw 1-111 f.vt. from the oTonnd.
He was repeatedly warned to look out
for himself, but snowed nimseii aounu
nti nliln tn do an. Finally he reached
the the highest point, and, standing at
full length, gave an exulting yen, wmuii
was answered by a group of friends
near the volcano building. Of course
he came down the other way, and tuns
made the first revolution of the great
Firth wheel. On reaching the ground
he disclosed his identity, and was recog
nized as a sailor and rigger, ne saia ne
had made the trip to settle a bet that he
would make the first tnp around tnis
mvint. rntnrv eonstmction.
