I'm reading The Devil In The White City by Erik Larson

From page 365:

Throughout October attendance at the fair rose sharply as more and more people realized that the time left to see the White City was running short.  On October 22 paid attendance totaled 138,011.  Just two days later it reached 244,127.  Twenty thousand people a day now rode the Ferris Wheel, 80percent more than at the start of the month.
