The Texas Spring Palace Is an original
conception for presenting to the public
the products and resources OF the state.
1t is not q fair, in any sense of the term,
but "Karporama "A picture of the
fruits of the soil, the orchard, the gar
den, the farm, the forest, the mines,
the streams-each wrought into form
and shape with great ingenuity and ar
tistio skill. The visitor who attends the
Palace to see crazy quilts, lace handker-
chiefs, embroidery, threshing machines,
clothes wringers, etc.. etc., will find
these articles conspicuous only by their
absence. The grains OF the country he
win find represented by beautiful pic
ture of the goddess of the forest, con-
structed of cereals, and clad in raiment
made Of the same material, the whcle
presenting a veritable picture bsansiful,
attractive and pleasing 1FeFT product

sproducts of the earth.
/ In addition to this the threshed grains
and other products are presented by
samples in show cases, on shelves and in
glass jars, neatly arranged for exhibit
ton.
The birds of the state are there treated
by the Taxidermist's art, and the fishes
swimming in their native element, in
glass aquariums. There are also the
song birds by the hundreds, whose voices
fill the building with sweet notes, attest
ing their appreciation of the beautiful
scene that surrounds them. II were
futile to attempt a description of this
wonderful work. A few have attempted
It, and we reproduce the efforts of some
Of the more distinguished. The Fort
Collins (Col.) Courier condensed the
whole in single sentence, exolaiming:
ssIt rivals all the visions of youthful
fancy"
The Bucyrus (ohio) Telegraph, recog-
nizing the poverty of the English Ian
guage to do the subject Justice, said:
sit is indescr:bable. The greatest ex-
position ever before the people. One Is
dazed by the splendor which greets the
eye"
The Evansville Qnd.) Courier said:
sit is magnificent structure, built
entirely of products from Texas. It is a
grand object lesson, showing the world
at glance, what Texas is, and what she
has to offer to capital and immigration. )"
The st. Louis Globe Democrat made an
effort to enlarge upon it to some extent,
but it found the task of minute descrip-
ton hopeless one, and after founder

HARRISBURG. Pa, Feb. 1O.-An open
switch caused serious wreck on the
Northern Central Railway at Marsh 8
Run, near this city, yesterday morning.
Two sections of a freight. running
ahead of the Pacific Express, had orders
to lay up on the siding until the OK press
had passed.
After the first section had run upon
the siding brakeman, supposing the
second section would follow, left the
switch open. This section, however,
ran in upon another switch. Before the
mistake could be rectitied the Pacific
Express rounded the curve and dashed
into the locomotive Of the second sec
ton.
Both engines were demolished, and
the track has been blocked all day. Ar
thur Emerton, of Baltimore, fireman
OF the express, was killed.
Isaac Shermer, engineer of the pas
senger train, and Engineer Yagle. OF

WAsH1NGToN, Feb. lO.-To-morrow
the Elections Committee will meet to
consider tho ADMINISTRATION con
tested election case and it is believed
that two reports, made on strict party
limos, will be submitted to the House.
An effort will be made to limit the dis,
cussion on rules, so that the Elections
Committee may have chance to call
up this case for consideration before
the end of the week. In event this is
done, repetition of the scenes enacted
in the House during tho endoavor of
the Republicans to call up the smith
jackson case will, in lesser degree,
it is believed, occupy the time Of the
House. 1t is a question whether vote
on the rules will be had during the
week.

New ORLEANS, Feb. 1O.-The officials
Of tho Louisiana Lottery Company con-

bill now before tho Dakota Legisla-
tire. A local afternoon paper gave,
what is by many believed, to be an in
spired answer to readers query:
"noes the State Lottery contemplate
removing to North Dakota and estab-
fishing a branch there?" 1t said:
The only response which, after duo
inquiry. can bo made is that the Louisi-
ana Lottery Company's present charter
does not expire until 1895 ; that it may
seek a renewal thereof at its present
domicile; that the managers of the
company do not know the terms and
conditions under which North Dakota
makes its tender, not having seen the
bill which has passed tho Senate that
they will not decide in any way upon
tho inducements held out by Dakota
until the conditions have been maturely
