signs of the principal aora Of the
State, as well a. many beautiful birds
and butterflies. On cBe panel IS the
lone star emblem of the State. In .
cabin which is both picturesque and
comfortable are found the Texas Head
{ quarters. This cabin Is remarkable,
from the fact that mol single nail
enters into its construction. 1exas
grapes and wine are likewise repre-
: scented by a tempting display Of the
, vine and its products. The Texas
} Pecan Company has a magnificent dis,
2 play of this lHcious nut, some Of them

tnrers of cotton and wool goods, as
well as honr mills, have sent credita-
: bic samples of their goods. The min

. showing immense resources in this
department. With the single eXceP-

plete and beautiful display Of natural
history as is to be found here, CON-
prising the bear, panther. lynx, wild
cat, deer, mnle-eared rabbit, coyote.

beautiful manties, one from Austin
and the other from Houston, hand
somely decorated with tiles painted by
the ladies' Of each city, challenge and
