WASHINGTON, March 6th.-The display OF de-
ierred firewarks from the Monument Grounds

ever witnessed in Washington. The exhibition
began with an illun ination of Pennsylvania

Capitol, a distance of over one mile. by means
OF magnesium suns. The night was uncom-
monty dark, and the great white shaft of the
washington Monument afforded background
the peer of which can hardly he fonnd in the
world.
The first set displayed was composed of large
portraits OF President Harrison and Vice -fresi-
dent Morton framed in brilliant colors and rest
ing upon an easel. So lifelike were these por-
ny recognized. Following these came marvel

Another set piece pictured the south front of

with perfect distinctness, The last of the pieces
represented the Capitol building.
THE CLOSING SCENE

ploded by electricity, shot up from the base OF
the monument to its summit. Thousands of
otners-ln yellow, scarlet, green purple and
garnet-followed in quick succession, until the
SKY was ahame with scintillating stars of won

some time, and was witnessed by upward of
nifty thousand people.

The building operations during ths
year just abont closing were over 100 less
than for the year 1887, and the ll.advise
strikes in the building trades are account
able for this shortage to great extent
Contemplated Investments IN building
operations were scared of by the strike;
Otherwise there i, every reason to believe
that the number of building operations
during 1888 would have squsled those OF
the year previous. Durng 1887 432
building permits were issued, while dur
ing the present year, excluding Decem.
her, only Si6 permits have been issued
Up to the end Of May of this year thu
number Of permits issued Just equaled
those OF 1887 during the same months
During the progress OF the strike and
until confidence was again restored, the
bnilding operations for the present year
fell of wofully. This Ia best shown by
the following comparisons Of figures for
the two years:
