ENTRANCE TO THE GERMAN CASTLE.–The entrance to the German Castle in the German Village, in the Midway Plainance, was the part of that structure which most recalled to mind a castle of the medieval barons, who had such particularly good times when the Emperor would let them alone and when raids upon their neighbors were always exciting and sometimes profitable. The moat was not very wide nor very deep; the drawbridge would not have accommodated a grand pageant of any sort, and the battlements of the castle were not so high but that a good bowman outside could have hit a button on the doublet of one of the defenders of the place, yet it was a very gallant castle, nevertheles. The duplication of an old South German Castle, if not on a grand scale, was at least a beautiful one, and the lover of feudal romances found a satisfaction in studying the design. The illustration gives a view of the moat and drawbridge and general character of the entrance. The architectural features of the castle were not imposing above the first story, but there was a mellow air of old times about the place and a suggestion of heavy eating and drinking and fighting enough to give variety.
