Besides this tract, there will be large
yards near by for the exhibition of
stock, aud farm of ~ acres has al
ready been suitably planted for the
tests Of ploughs, mowers, repairs and
other agricultural machinery.
The Exhibition buildings are ap.
preached by eight lines of street ears,
which connect with all the other lines
in the city, and by the Pennsylvania
and Reading railroads, over the tracks
! of which trains will also run FROM the
North Pennsylvania and Philadelphia,
Wilmington, and BaltiMo ore railroads.
Thus the Exhibition is in immediate
connection with the entire railroad
system of the country, and any one
within ninety miles of Philadelphia
can visi it at no greater expense than
the cost of carriage hire at the parlsor
| Vienna Exhibition.
The articles to be exhibited have been
classified in seven departments, which,
for the most part, will be located in
appropriate buildings, whose several
areas are as follows:
Department of Mining and Metallur-
gy, Manufactures and Educational

The Women's Centennial Executive
Committee have raised $780, 600 for the
erection of a pavilion in which to ex-
hibit every kind Of women's work. To
this collection, women OF all nations
are expected to contribute.
The list of special buildings is con-
stantly increasing, and present indica-
tions are that their total number Will
be from 200 to 80. Most of the impor-
tant foreign nations-England, Ger
many, Austria, France, Sweden,
Egypt, Japan and others-are putting
m one or more structures each, for eX-
hibiting purposes, or for the use OF the
commissioners, exhibitors and visi-
tors. Offices and headquarters of this
kind, usually of considerable architec-
tural beauty, are p divided by the
States of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana,
Illinois, Michigan, New Jersey, New
York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New
HAMPSHIRE, Missouri, Kansas, Nir-
rinia, West Virginia, Nevada, Wiscon-
Sin, Iowa and Delaware and 1t Is
likely that others will follow the eN-
ample. ,
A number of trade and Industrial
associations, which require large
amounts of space, will be provided for
in special buildings. Among these are
the photographers, the carrlage-ouiiu-
ers, the glass makers, the cracker
bakers, the boot and shoe manufac'
turers, beside quite number of indi-
vidual exhibitors. The great demands
for space will probably render TINS
course necessary to u considerable ex-
tent especially for exhibitors who
have been tardy in making their APP
nlications. In the main exhibition
bnilding. for instance, 323,3OO square
feet of space had been applied for ny
American exhibitors only whereas,
The aggregate space which IL mas Deen
nossible to reserve for the United states
departmentls only 6O,0O6 square feet'
about one.third of which Will De con-

others, is already fully covered by ap-
niica lions. There are about one thou-
