Cbe Omaba Exposition. When the World's Fair at Chicago ceased to exist, it was supposed th:it we should ne'er look upon its like again. However, the Trans- Mississippi Exposition at Omaha has effectively reproduced in similarity all of the buildings which made the White City so attractive in 1893. It does not now take weeks to wander through grounds and structures and then be compelled to go away with a jumble of ideas, for the Omaha Exposition people have profited by past experience, and have so improved the arrange- ment of exhibits that no more than two or three days of time need be consumed in admiration and inspection of the mar\'elous resources of the West, collected together in the chief city of Nebraska. Even the new Midway, is a reproduction of the far-famed Street of all nations of 1893, with many improvements upon the original. The electric lighting of the buildings, grounds and lagoon at night makes a scene of enchant- ing beauty, alone worth traveling a thousand miles to see. The means of communication between the city and the grounds are ample, and the distance to be traversed is short. The ways of reaching Omaha are innumerable, but chief among them is the direct Chicago and Omaha short line of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway, with its electric-lighted, vestibuled trains, leaving Chicago every night at 6:15 p. m., and arriving Omaha at 8:20 the next morning.
