Pierce and Sixth streets, will be octagon
in shape, with diameter of 166 feet
Around the room at a height of thirty
two feet will run balcony, supported
on pillars. These pillars will be SO
arranged however, that clear passage
way fifty feet wide will be left from the
entrance, across the central building and
through to the addition on the northeast
side, giving an unobstructed view for a
distance of 272 feet. AT the end of the
passage will be arranged an immense
waterfall, and other attractive features,
that with the great distance will naturally
impress the visitor as he steps inside
with the immensely of the structure.
The central building will be so
arranged that the light will be excluded.
Tho ceiling will be formed of painted
sky on canvas, arched over. From the
ceiling will be suspended innumerable
incandeecent lights in globes cast in the
shape of stars, which will produce an
effect as startling as it will be beautiful.
To the right of the central building is
the auditorium, room 100x10O, which
is an entirely new feature of this years
Palace. The band stand will be placed
at the opening, with sounding board,
to throw the strains of music toward the
auditorium. This room will be fur
nished with seats, SO that those who are
tired of the crowd in the main building
can seek rest and musical entertainment
in the auditorium On the north and
east sides will be large rooms for exhibits,
and space will also be allowed for this
purpose in the gallery of the central
building.
Tt is the intention, in addition to the
general plans to have as many attractive
features as possible, that are both novel
and unique. The decorations will sur
pass anything of the kind ever witnessed
before. Although itseemed that artistic
skill had been exhausted last year,
already ideas have been suggested and
plans are already maturing that will
cause everyone to ask "where is the end
to Corn Palace decorations ?"
The committees in charge of the work
have the details arranged and this years
Palace will prove such panorama Of
unique novelties and natural beauty that
no one can afford to miss seeing it. II

Is probably the best known on the
other side OF the water OF all our geol-

perfect state. His discovery came

Stars During a vacation one summer
he took a number of Yale students on
a working frolic to "the bad lands"
In Nebraska, which is regarded as the
best for obtaining all sorts OF fossils o.

During thi. trip the professor aud
his party discovered q dried-up swamp
that had probably BEEN lake eeutu-
ries ago. WorkiuGmsn were building
railroad through H. and throwing
up thousands upon thousands Of
strange bones. These the professor
gathered up in large Quantities. and
before he had finished his examination
of them he had traced the origin OF the
horse six states back His discovery

specimens of the bones to different
scientific schools. and was greatly
houored therefor. Probably no discov-

pida't Rely Fntirsly Upou Faith

A middle-aged woman who had been
in the habit OF purchasing treatIses on
nursing at a well-known book store in
Boston came In one day and bought .
number of physiological and other
works OF a more distinctive medical
character. The salesman mad con-
ceived the idea from her previous pur-
chases and from n certain style OF
dress and bearing that his customer
was a professional nurse, or at all
events was In training for that posi-
tiou. When, therefore, she bought
the medical works, issued under the
auspices of the Boston College of
Physicians and Surgeons. he was some
what nonplused, but his curiosity hav-
ing been excited. he said: Il see you
have got through your studies as a
nurse" The woman replied blandly,
but with certain manner which
seemed as much as her words TO repcl
the salesman's inference, II am not o
nurse; l am q Christian scientist"

Our Dick.

One bright morning In the latter part
Of October, 1859, while strengthening
the library, l heard fiutter of wings,
followed by an exclamation from my
daughter, go, mamma, canary :"
Sure enough, perched on the back of a
chair, with dropping wings and pant
ing body, was a very tired but pretty
genuine canary, pale yellow color, with
Just a line of darker shade on each
wing. He seemed very shy, and,
weary as he was. We had some difficulty
In catching and transferring him to a
cage In all my experience with birds
L have never kept a Gagged prisoner. /
do not believe they are happy confined
within such narrow limits
L kept my plants mp stairs, and he
liked nothing better than TO be at liber-
ty among them. / did not like to leave
him there for fear of an accident, SO /
made him go down when L did. He
soon learned that his time was limited.
and the cutest things he ever did were
when L tried to get him when | was
ready. He would come to my shoulder
and stay until L started down the steps.
then fly straight back through the hall
and into the room with the plants. OF
course, L went back; he would allow me
almost to touch him, and then sliding
out from under my hand would elude
my grasp, and hop just a few PAGES
away, finally getting on the floor and
under the bed. 1 never saw child
look any more saucily defiant than did
this midget, away beyond my reach,
with head to one side, body fattened,
and still as q mouse, he seemed to say,
"get me, il you can." 1t was too fun
ny for me to do anything else than
laugh, and he soon learned he could
outwit me In that manner, and took ad-
vantage of it until L was obliged to
leave him down stairs.-Vfck's Maga-
