Gambrill said he thought the canal might
be repaired along its entire length for

pRovIDEsoE, r. l., June 20.--Prohibi-
ton has been defeated in Rhode Island
to-day by majority of IS 596 iris is
equivalent to nearly q majority OF $50 600
in Pennsylvania. The wave Of reaction
against prohibition has thus attained its
highest mark in this state.
The Prohibitory amendment was re-
pealed by vote Of 5,469 more than the
three fitths OF the total vote necessary to
carry the amendment. The total vote IL:
Approve, 29 449; reject, 1888. In 1885,
when the amendment was adopted. the
vote, which was about IA 600 smaller,
stood, Approve, Is, l13; reject, $3.50.
The vote of this city was Approve,
II 9l9; reieot, 2,940. Pawtucket; APP
prove, 2,657; reject, ITO. Newport; APP
prove, 2l2l; reject, 1920, The vote
will be officially counted on or before
July 18th, and will be announced by
proclamation on or before July 20th.
Constitutional prohibition was gigen q
fair trial ard fo1nd to be SO marked q
failure that agitation was begun for it's
repeal. The legislature voted by an
overwhelming majority to resubmit the
question to the people. This was done
in the form OF an amendment repeating
the Prohibitory amendment. 1t re-
quired a three fifths vote to pass the re-
pealing amendment and the ''repealerB"
have carried the day with large ma
jority.
From sunrise to sunset on the longest

Jonn Baird's model OIL the Centennial
Exhibition of 1875, prepared nj the ex-
psnse of great time and labor, was exhi-
bited last evening OF the Spring Garden
Institute. The exhibition was private
and the spectators were limited to Mr..
Baird's personal friends. The front hall
Of the institute, above the library. was
devoted to the preliminary display, which
occupied the greater part Of the room
The model OF the historic exhibit, pre-
pared In circular form, was surrounded
by four layers Of seats, the view from the
floor representing an elevation Of 100 feet
from the centre of attraction, and the
spectators ON the topmost layer had q
bird's-eye view of 800 feet.
Mr.. Baird had produced the model at
an expense Of nearly SIC, 1000. and the
work, which had consumed more than o
year, had been entrusted to the hands of
skilled mechanics. The result, notwith
standing all this expenditure of time and
labor, was In Its intense realism add Its
perfect art surprise even to tina author's
most intimate friends. The models from
which the reproduction had been drawn
had been secured with immense difficulty.
Some of the details of the centennial dis
play could be reproduced only from pho
tographs and the memory Of interested
spectators.
To the spectators OF the original scene
the reproduction was a triumph Of labor
and art. Details as small as the almost
imperceptible swelling OF ground snd the
location OF trees and shrubbery were
faithfully followed The buildings, most
Of them now demolished, were perfect
in design end execution. They were
formed by hand from solid blocks OF
wood. horticultural Hall alone was thun
constructed at an expense OF $500 aud
this building was dwarfed by the main
structure, which in its faithful details
was in itself triumph Of the mechanics
art.
The groundwork was executed In
marble, 81 feet In diameter, on which
were constructed the Typographical feat
ures, hills. valleys, roads, drives aud
water courses in wood and cement. The
larger buildings In solid wood and the
smaller buildings In brass, all appro.
pristely glazed and painted, were SUR
ROUNDED by forests Of trees made OF wire.
statues carved in miniature and thousands
OF human figures carved from costly
wood. The whole was enciroled by
water courses of cut and colored glass
and engines and cars Of delicately
chiseled woodwork.
Tho special merit of the display was
lis strict accuracy. It was not merely a
general appearance of the grounds and
buildings. To the smallest details OF
grounds and buildings it was in miniature
a reproduction of the real centennial OK
hibition. Tonight Mr.. Baird will ex.
hihit the model to ladies OF his acqueint.
ance. Tomorrow the display will be
turned over to the institute, which will
charge as cents admission, until the city, to
which the model is donated, shall decide,
through councils, where the exhibi. shall
be permanently located.
