Chicago’s latest and the world’s great* •st ®£,ow up to date. RIVERVIEW EXPOSITION, is daily breaking all crowd records in this city of multitudes. The attendance of the famous World’a Fair Is eclipsed. A million persons visited the exposition the first few days of its opening.

They came out of the elty on street cars; from the country by trains; from all points of the compass afoot, on horseback, in automobiles, carriages, electric, elevated and steam railways and by boat.

Thousands arrived on a fleet of electric launches, steamers, big excursion boats, sailing craft and rowboats, all gaily flying bunting and flags, laden with joyous crowds, whose noises of merriment mingled with the music of many bands. All day the vast concourse of shouting men. women and children passed into the grounds. They were confronted with an endless revelation of architectural. scenic and natural splendor in theaters. pavilllona. courts, midways, esplanades. exhibition buildings, art and industrial halls, casinos, concert stadiums for great military bands and orchestras. causeways, boulevards, waterways and gloaming white tessellated buildings Turreted and dassllng tn their beauty the buildings form snow white avenues snd fringe the shores of dlsmond lakes from whose prismatic depths spout and epray fountains of crystal waters by day and opalescent mtsta of green, purple. orange and heliotrope by night The mile square center of marvelously beautiful structures sets like a city Carrara marble in the emerald heart of groves, forestry and flower plats.
