CORRESPONDENT REPORTS THINGS AS THEY LOOK TO HIM Meeting Richmond People Every Day Tetrauq Quartet, Etc.

Special Correspondence : St. Louis, June 13, I have just finished one stressful Aveek. It is needless to say that I spent it at the World's Fair. If you Ayant to get busy go to the World's Fair. Eugene Field once wrote a poem on "Seem' Things at Night." You'll be seem things day and night if you go to the Exposition, and you'll be lamenting for days and nights afterAvard that you didn't haAe time to see more things for the things are there. You just simply can't see all the things you want to see, unless you spend a week or tAvo at the fair. I met a man inside the Fair ground Avho looked supremely disgusted. He

wore the expression of a person who has tried and tried again to accom

plish something, but tailed to suc

ceed.

"What's the trouble?" I asked him. "Don't you like the fair?" "You bet I don't like it," he replied; "I'm sore on the Avhole shebang. ' ' "Isn't the Exposition fine? Don't vou find manv things here of inter

PREPAEINF TO CLEAN THE CITY (Continued From First Page.) and one thai will bring results for the betterment of the districts in Avhich the changes Avill occur. The "dog days,' July, August, are ahvays dreaded as the months of the greatest ill health and this year all steps will be taken to have the city in a sanitary, healthy condition, where this period comes. He is preparing alist of the places where the sanitation is the worst and where the greatest amount of ill health and disease is. There are many bad places which are veritable breeding grounds for disease germs and which are sources of foul odors pregnant with germs. Of these hog pens are the Avorst, and special steps will be taken against these. Many of them are filthy piles of mud, and germs look on them as palaces and seek them in great numbers. The foul odors arising from hog pens are the causes of many diseases and something must be done to rid the ci!v of them.

costly exhibits, and all that,

but still I'm disgusted." I received the impression that here

must be a most curious individual, and I resolved to imestigate further. "What is it you don't like? Don't you like the music by these famous bands? Do you object to the illumination from half a million electric lamps? Is it the daily, almost hourly military parades that disgust you? Don't you fancy these big Pike attractions."

"Oh, of course I like all those things. Who Avouldn't? They're great, but still I'm disgusted with the Fair as a AArhole." "My dear good man," I asked in despair, "Avhat feature of the Exposition is it that so greatlv displeases you?" "Its size," he replied, "it's the confoundest biggest thing I ever saAV,

nearu 01 or dreamed ot, and I'm sore because I can't see all of it. Evei-y time I think of the fact that I've got to go home tonight, after being here only two Aveeks, I get disgusted. Why, I've only peeked into one corner of A lie World's Fair, and all the rest I've got to miss. Wouldn't that disgust you ?" From the card Avhich the disgusted gentleman handed me I discovered him to be a member of the American Press Humorists, Avho held a com-en-tion at the World's Fair the first week in June. Though he Avas having his little joke he meant it, and he merely expressed in his own Avay the

disappointment of thousands who find that in the limited time at their disposal they are unable to see as much of the fair as they would ilke, because of its unprecedented and unexpected immensity of size. Gradually but surely it is being impressed upon the public consciousness that this Exposition is all that its builders and managers have claimed for it, and more, namely, by far the largest, most comprehensive and most inleresting enterprise of its kind ever created. Every day during my stay at the Fair 1 have met persons from afar off who simply had to sit down and gasp at the bigness of the Exposition. "My!" exclaimed a portly woman from Milwaukee: "but ain't it aAv-

ful?" j "What's awful?" her husband! asked, solicitously. "I just never saw anything like it," the woman continued. "It just completely stuns me; I'm dazed and bewildered!" Knowing that the pleasant June Aveather Avas too cool to giA-e the Wisconsin lady a sunstroke, I Avas at a loss to know Avhat itAva s that dazed and beAvildered her, and Avas so awful, and all that. Though it Avas none of my business, I lingered conveniently near, just to hear what she meant

by her superlative expressions. "I'll never get OA'er it never!" she exclaimed. "I know Sarah Avon't believe it Avhen I tell her, and Uncle Jim will accuse me of boasting about

Why, I was at Chicago in '93 year before we 'were, married, you know and that fair was the biggest thing that, eyer could happen, I thought;, but - this Sty I Lpuis Exposition just completely eclipse' Chicago. I'll never get "over it never!" Sad incidents like this are frequent? inside the World's fair grounds.. There are so many persons who come here prepared for a Pan-American Exposition and find twenty PanAmerican Expositions rolled into one that the very . atmosphere presents a sort of hazy apparition of. openmouthedness expressive of amazement. Passing the Louisiana Purchase Monument today I was accost

ed by a stranger avIio inquired which of the buildings in sight Avas the Pal

ace of Agriculture.

"You can't see it from here," I told him, "it is on a hill Avest of here about-a mile." "How?" he gasped. "About a mile Avest," I repeated. The man's lower jaAV dropped like

a hinge. He stood open-mouthed for fully a minute, staring. Then he asked: "Say, mister, how far Avest does this here sIioav run? Why, I'm from Kansas, and if I'd 'a knowed that the shoAv run clean out to the Kansas line I'd 'a stopped in Fort Scott with my son's folks instead o' puttin' up at the Inside Inn." I see home people here right along. In going through the ground Ave usually meet some one from home and Ave are always glad to see them. We saw Charley BradAvay and Ben Hiser. Charley is with the Terminal people here and is doing splendidly. John Hiser, Avho Avas attacked and

shot by thugs some time ago, is improving and will most likely pull through. He is very anxious to get well and get home and to this end he is much encouraged. Walter S. Ratliff, Avho is assistant

custodian of the Indiana building,

much in evidence on the grounds of the exposition. He says he likes his charge -ery much. The Tetrauq Quartet Lawrence Deuker, Clarence Ranks and Clifford Piehl are certainly showing the peopie here that there is plenty of good

musical talent in our Hoosier City. The boys are enjoying even' minute of their time.
