approaching NomptotAVh.
The Exposition buildings are fast nearing
completion. and will most undoubtedly be
ready for the reception of exhibits in
ample time to have them placed in position
by the opening day. The ceiling under the
gallery in Floral Hall will be of bark arti-
ficially arranged so as to give it rustic ap-
pearance. This department will be laid
out with walks, made of gravel and shell,
and bordered on either side with beautiful
flowers and plants of all descriptions, and
fountains here and there will send forth
their silvery spray.
At the south side Of the Hall will be a
cascade and grotto, formed with coarse
rugged rocks, that will make very pictur-
esque scene and certainly be admired by
all who visit the Exposition, as it will be
the most interesting feature. The wall;
will be whitewashed, and the contrast
caused by them and the green and varie
gated colors of the plants will be perfectly
grand. In Power Hall almost everything
is completed, the excavation i'll which thu
| foundation on which the big engine will bt
| placed is being dug, workmen are busily
engaged casing the gallery, and most all
| the whitewashing is finished.
The floor is made of heavy boards ant
laid on solid foundation Of concrete. Th'
doors connecting tine main hall with th'
two wings are being cut through the walls
and the skaters are nearly through will

soon be covered with hammered plate-glass
