the greatest spectacle of ancient or modem limes and are pouting in by the hundred thousand Canadians are here sufficient numbers for their presence to be felt From the province of Ontario alone nearly have registered at headquarters and these do not represent half of those on the grounds The Dearborn sta tion where the Grand Trunk trains arrive is jammed from early morning till late at night and finding ones friends is a task of great difficulty On Sunday the brought in no less than coaches all filled with passengers and it was not an ex ceptional day The ends the earth shake hands each other in the White and the inhabitants of every an opportunity of becoming acquaint ed such as rarely if ever presented before Just next to the Canadian Pavilion is the building occupied by New South Wales whose pluck and enterprise in unking so magnificent a display in all ihc de partments has been the wonder of us all Then the tropical looking head quarters of the Republic of and next to these the India building a veritable storehouse of art treasures Owing to the introduction of Euro pean goods the manufacture of objects of ait has declined to a great extent in India and but for the inter of certain commercial firms would soon disappear altogether The other day I looked at priceless goods till my eyes were weary There were shawls such as arc given by Queen Victoria as wedding presents the wonderful Chadders or ring shawls of such fine texture that one of them measuring yards can be passed easily through an ordinary finder cm- Broideries In silver gold ad silk the latter of microscopical fineness car pets of alt ihc designs for which the is so famous metal work in end less variety some pieces years of patient toil of many hands caved ivory tusks the delicacy and intricacy of which is fairly and vrtod carving of marvellous beauty Any description of these is out of the question The India pa vilion is always crowded in and out among the crowd are passing the native servants of body dark of feature and clad in scarlet uniform wilh snow white turbans These as they are called serve visitors with Indian tea the cultivation of a taste for which is one of the chief objects of the Indian Government at the Worlds Fair Mr Richard of Bombay who represents the Association of Indian Tea Planters is especially charged with this mission To British subjects it is interesting to know the tea- product of India and Ceylon has increased with marvellous rapidity and in the British market at least has practically displaced the China crop It Is only a question of time till the same result is reached in and the United States The flavor and aroma of the steaming tea served in Indian manufactured crockery decor ated by- natives handed round by the native servants In native garb are something to be remembered and a visit to the Indian Pavilion must re- main one- of the most Interesting memories of the fair The Ontario vegetable display since the burning of the cold storage warehouse has been rather scant but supplies of fresh stuff are coming in very freely and the Court is the centre of attraction especially to the famous four adjoining states who are never done expressing wonder at marvelous productions of our country Some varieties of pota toes all of excellent quality are dis played on plates beets carrots cabbages tomatoes and other field and garden products The sen sational features however are a mam moth squash weighing 486 lbs and a mammoth red pumpkin of lbs both grown by Mr Wax of and a long way of the kind on the Major Walker of who charge of the exhibit Informed me that next week the pick of the vegetable pro- ducts from the leading Ontario Pairs will be shipped here So that some thing good may be looked for 1 Quite a number of samples of new grain have arrived from Ontario of excellent quality Nest week the stock pavilion will be given over to sheep and swine In point of the exhibit these animals will far exceed those of horses and cattle the prizes being of a very liberal scale In all and sheep have been entered of which and respec tively are from Ontario The other provinces of the Dominion will not be represented in these classes Mr Henry Wade private secretary to Commissioner who has managed the collection and shipment of the Ontario Live Stock arrived yesterday morning with fifteen car loads of sheep and swine which were soon afterwards safely housed in the barns vacated by the cattle and horses The animals had hardly been settled in their new quarters before they were surrounded by admiring and critical crowds The Ontario sheep are especially fine and are in number nearly double They have very carefully select ed not an inferior having been brought over and good judges say they never saw a better lot about Ontario Fruit and other products continue to pour in It it certain that a large business in fresh and preserved fruits can be done between Ontario and Germany In the official list of awards pub lished this morning I find that the Ontario collection of plants in the horticultural building has been well placed as it deserved The large sue and general excellence of this display has been a subject of general remark among experts in that direction since it was installed in the early May days I got a hint the other day from Uncle John Thorpe director of floriculture which is well worth know ing by everybody who has a garden Mr Thorpe stands at the head of his profession in America and the floral display on the wooded island and about the buildings has been one of the chief delights to those who have an eye for the beautiful in this direction Among the foliage plants are many tender species such as carinas and I was a little curious to know how it was proposed to protect them against the early frosts that ate so destructive and ex asperating to florists Mr Thorpe informed me that he watched the temperature very closely arid when there was any fear of frost he kept the water running through a fine spray nozzle all night and tnus prevented damage Young an Hour Prom Ike Chicago Sunday One who would propose speaking seriously transfer a parcel Or letter from New York to San Francisco in hours causing it to traverse the in tervening miles at a speed of miles an hour would be consid ered by most persons to be highly im aginative or grossly unveracious Yet this seemingly impossible task is pre cisely what Albert Leslie Widdis of Detroit professes to be able to accom plished with his recently invented ae rial electric railway a brief account of which has already been given to the public Railway men are marveling much at the fast train the Exposi tion Flyer that covers the or so miles of track between New York and Chicago in just hours but Mr avers that by means of his system of transportation a letter can be delivered in New York within two hours after being matted in Chicago This would bo a practical annihila tion of space and Mr is satis ficd that it is entirely feasible- So confident ii he tho ultimate success of his invention that he has taken out letters patent on it and will con- near Detroit a test line for illustrating hi aerial in Reduced to its simplest terms Mr rapid transit device a model of which is now on exhibition at the Fair is an elevated railway with electricity as in propul sive force In detail of construction and mechanism and nice adiusiment of parts with a view to decrease the friction and increase speed the in venlor has struck out some valuable original ideas in both electricity and mechanism and has recast older dis coveries new and more useful forms The result of these combina tions is Mr contends a car that can be driven forward at miles an hour and yet be perfectly under control as to speed and dis position of cargo of an operator stationed at any point on the line The primary purpose of this new scheme of transportation is to carry mail and express matter and in the extension of the system fruit and perishable freight de vice the cars can be made to stop set their brakes and deliver their loads or any portion thereof automatically at any desired point In appearance the car designed by Mr a long square box terminating at one end in a pyra midal projection running to a sharp This is the forward end and intended to pierce the air at a tremendous speed witha minimum of resistance This car suspended by iron from four wheels a feet inches which in turn rest on a single bar of ordinary railway stretched on arms projecting from a line of poles arranged exactly like telegraph poles cash carriers in use in many large shops closely resemble the method of suspension from a single rail employed by Below this rail Ii another of the I pattern which serves at once as a guide and a support and which prevents the wheels from leav ing the main track In the centre of the car Is a specially designed electric motor of exceeding lightness and power that drives by means of wheels and link belts the driving wheels above The current to oper ate this motor Is taken from a wire above the track by a trolley wheel much after the manner of the ordinary electric car The electric power is to be applied from dynamo stations at points along the route Very little electrical force is required It is that elevenhorse power will propel a pound car its load at the rate of 500 miles an hour Where the car is to be used for the carriage of mail matter no stop page is needed for the delivery of mail bags at their proper stations In mail car which is bottomless each mail bag rests on a shelf or platform which can be moved up or down by a lever that projects from it through the side of the car As the car by a station this lever strikes against an arm extending from a set up by the track the shelf is de pressed the mail bag falls to the ground or on the platform of station or into a net white the car flies on and the shelf released from the action of the lever returns auto matically to its former position ready for another load When it is desired to shunt cars from the main line to a lateral branch the same principal a used to open and close the switches These devices render the system al most automatic in its operation The advantages claimed for this new method of iranspottaitona are First speed which can be easily forced up to miles an hour second safety because track being elevated accidents are impossi ble third economy the first cost of the elevated track being small and the repairs nearly while the cars can be built for apiece Mr thinks be has overcome the obstacles and impediments to transportation of loads of pounds or less at a speed miles an hour Should the freightcarrying Poject succeed as be feels certain it will Mr Widdis will proceed at once to devise a car in which passengers may be carried safely at the same tremendous speed Then a man can live in Chicago and go to business daily in New York versa Mr the inventor of this remarkable device is a lawyer He Is a young man a native of Canada and has only recently been admitted to the bar where he promises to take high rank For several years he has devoted his leisure to the study of electricity and mechanics with a view to improving present methods of transportation and the electric mail cat is the first practical result of his efforts BRADFORD The Town Fathers met on Mon day night and repealed the ByLaw which prohibited the erection of frame buildings upon our business street A petition signed by over forty rate payers asked for the repeal of the ByLaw and the Council granted the prayer of the petitioners Some of our citizens were inclined to believe that the bylaw was a stumbling block to the erection of new buildings upon the burnt district SQHOMBERG are
