RECTOR DE LA MARINE.

The World's Fair No Longer Without
a First Class Cafe at Fair Rates.

The Cafe de la Marine, at the World's
Fair, was opened yesterday by Boniface
Charles E. Rector and his friends to
the number of fifty. The new building
is the [beporticoed], seven-turreted [ed]-
ifice just north of the Fisheries build-
ing, facing on the most beautiful por-
tion of the lagoon. It is the only ex-
clusive cafe building on the grounds.
It is surrounded, up stairs and down,
with wide balconies which are com-
pletely filled with tables. The second
floor has also an inside balcony and
many private rooms. The building is
substantial, is beautifully decorated,
and handsome porticoes are on guard
everywhere. The building cost $25,000,
all of which was paid for out of conces-
sions for advertising on salt cellars,
cups and saucers, etc.

Mr. Rector took a large party of his
friends out on Columbian couches while
his able assistant, Bob, had a splendid
luncheon prepared. There was every-
thing to eat and plenty to drink. A
splendid band played suitably to the
occasion, and when the party adjourned
it was at the invitation of Gen. Nelson
A. Miles and Hon. William F. Cody to
come over to their show, which was
never better. There were prominent
newspaper men, such as John C. Eckel
and [Buff] Hall. The heavyweight wine
men, Walt Williams and Dick Stockton,
from C. [Jevee] and his fidus Achates, L.
Erickson, down, helped to do the honors.
The Elks were represented by CHarlie
Clayton, and a man who didn't wear
diamonds was looked upon with sus-
picion by the Columbian guards. When
you want a Rector lunch at Rector
prices at the World's Fair you now
know where to get it.
