tAQE SIX. ASTORIA, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1904. OUR WORLD'S FAIR WANDERERS They Discuss Plant of Attacking th , Great Exposition. The Aitorlan baa arranged for a ae ries of letters from a party of well known tourists now visiting the world's fair at St Louis. Following Is the first of the series: At the World'a Fair. St Louts, Sept 14. I am glad I had my way. We talked It all over on the train while a Chinaman was climbing out of the upper berth in our section. We didn't know the Chinaman slept over us. That's one of the pleasant surprises of traveling on one of these world's fair Bleeping cars. I wouldn't be surprised next time to wake - up and find the toot of one of these I go rot dog-eaters from the Philippine village resting In my face. For It must be kept In mind that this Is a world's fair not a St Louis fair and you rub elbows with every race and nationality under the un. , . . But as I said before. I had my way, and that account! for the fact that we circled around the great exposition like a vulture circles around his prey before alighting. John wanted to "wade right Into the exposition," as he ex pressed If, and Jane bad her mind set q the iagoouB. The gondolier ap pealed fo lef romantic Insitnct But my plan was to first take in the "high Jtgfet te ylW tbe 6T4 exposition, ""from lofty .vantage ground., marking the mountain topi of achievement and measuring Its plan and icope. Bo we took the Intramural railway at the main entrance and right glad we were that "we" had the forethought to take it It Is an overhead trolley, elec tric road, seven miles long, skirting the entire exposition grounds, running lAflly 6fl the surface ahd partly 6n an elevated structure, following the topo graphy of the great park In a way most delightful to the sightseer. The world's fair at Chicago was built in a morass. The Louisiana exposition has hills' and natural forest to give a picturesque ef fect The jutting prominences of these hills aer crowned by stately palaces and beautiful pavilions, while two are connected by a semi-circular ridge leading to the lower level of the grounds, used to form the cascades and the cascade garden pronounced by many to be the greatest architectural water and garden composition ever executed by man. Nestling under the shade of great trees are state and for eign buildings representing varied types of ornate and stately architec ture. " ' 11 Art Yea b tht Eaih end BstSi? While we join la th ruth and bustle of this buy world, overtaxing our energies and racking our systems, many of us are morally culpable of TacueaBiluvegardof bodily strength and Btasaa. Then par haps the health breaks down, and we seem doomed to long periods of pain and depression. t Our whole life is darkened. YETTKEEE IS k BEKEDY AT RAID Hundreds and thousands of ailing men and woman bar found that BEEGIMl'S PILLS verily make life worth Iking. SaevrfareMf JfausMkse, aVMM law ttfttm This was the picture presented to the eye as the trolley carried us swiftly along. These are veritable "observa . tion cars," clean, comfortable and com modious. . The spectacle was beyond description. The sensation was inde scribable. We were viewing a fifty million dollar show from the hilltops of a 1250 acre forest, all for 50 cents, and . aa we went rushing along we tried to take In the panorama of sculptural and architectural splendor, but It was too much for the range of human vision. The man with a megaphone "rattled" us of course and so we started on the Intramural the wrong way. We are not used to conversing by fog-horn methods at home. But I have found that quite often the wrong way is the right way when It comes to seeing things, and so it proved In this case. We started at the ,last station Instead of the first and no sooner had we started than the plaza of St Louis, the Louisiana mon ument, the Grand basin, the Cascades crowned by Festival hall and the ter race of states burst upon our view, FronS that time on there was a bewil dering pnprama of gardens, fountains, sculptural groups, terraces, exhibit pal ace8y stajeiand foreign buildings. ,We oassed also coal mining camps, zinc and TOfc&a; Blak Hills gold re duction plant, the great horticultural and BgHiiniflrarfcSlaces, a model poul try farmt the famous Ferris wheel, the Unlldtatesttfe' saving exhibit, the buildfngs of Brazil, East India and Can ada.As WfFSapJdffJS bridge of Spain leading to thewalled city of the Phll lppiBt reSi&lfflW heard the yells of ta dog-danc,e in the Igorot village.
