Fort Worth daily gazette. (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1882-1891, 1890-04-19

The Texas Spring Palace is an original
conception for presenting to the public
the products and resources of the state.
1t is not fair, in any sense of the term,
but 'Karporams'-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
tistic 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
will find represented by a beautiful pic
ture Of the goddess of the forest, con-
structed of cereals, and clad in raiment
made of the same material, the whole
presenting Veritable picture, beautiful,
attractive and pleasing. Every product
of the soil is treated IN the same manner. q
and when finished the whole Palare pre-
sents more the appearances Of a scene
from FairyIand than gathering of the
products 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 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, exclaiming:
cit rivals all the visions of youthful
fancy
The Bucyrus COhio) Telegraph, reoog-
nizing the poverty of the English Ian
guage to do the subject justice, said:
''It is indescribable. The greatest ex-
position ever before the people. One Is
dazed by the splendor which greets the
eye.'
The Evansville Qnd.) Courier said:
cit is a 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 deserip- |
ton hopeless one, and after founder

ing around in two or three columns of
details it closed by saying that
'The decorations of the entire build
ing are beautiful beyond description.
There are scenes of Texas landscape,
birds, flowers, musical instruments,
road trestle over real water, all wrought
by skilIful hands from the product of the
soil. Without and within, both as
whole and in minute detail, the decora-
tions are indesoribably beautiful and
wonderful in artistic conception and ex-
ecution -

ascending Gas the reader pleases) to in-
dividual opinion, we quote frsHa the
Hon. Jonas CIeland Mayor Of sJ0as<
City, Iowa, who saYss
cit would De impossible for me to in
dsIlgH 81 any Extravaganza in saying, to
5the people of this entire country, that
no more beautiful or more unique picture
was ever erected upon the face of the
globe. -
Hon. J. NJ. Thayer, of Nebraska, af-
er viewing the Palace, said, it is a. Pal
ace of marvellous beauty. rivalIng in
grandeur a temple lined with gold and
silver and studded with precious gems,
made of Gods handiwork, of the fruits
of the field. We see here an abundance
of what Texas can produce. Everything
is beautiful, and everyone will say:
well done, Fort Worth; well done,
Texas.
Gov. R. B. Hubbard, ex-minister to
Japan, who has visited oriental ooun-
tries, and seen the most skillfuI and
dextrous handiwork OF all nations,
said:
''This is a veritable wonderland.
Such artistic arrangements of the cereals.
such beautiful decorations, and such a
wonderful exhibit of marble, granite,
minerals and wood have never seen be-
fore -
This was was the verdict of last years's
the people of Texas.
The Palace this year will be much
larger, more comprehensive, and if skill
and experience can make it SO, more
beautiful than that of last year. It Is

Rogues in high places often reign;
Cupidity ''inUiteS TO GAIN
And sometimes in lofty sphere
Fraud and venality appear.
In congress halls corruption stalks,
And bare-faced bribery boldly walks,
And those to whom we trust our veal,
BY jobbers tempted, often steal.
But when the press begins to shout,
And when the people find them out,
How honest then those statesmen are!
What threats vindictive they Declare!
A whole is ordered, Otis sham,
To find who steals from Uncle Sam.
Are those who're guilty brought to light
And humbled in the public sight?
Are felons punished on the spot?
l grieve to say that they are not.
Such useless lUhoLeS are all in vain
To stop men from unlawful gain.

2S-Syncopation

At midnight ia his downy bed
Sir Ronald's dreams were Eighty;
He dreamed that he an army led,
Invincible and mighty.
In dreams he saw the scene of battle,
In dreams he heard the small arms rattle;
Upon the field all stained with gore ~
He heard the loud-mouthed cannen roar,
And saw the din of conflict rage
Where soldiers hand to hand engage,
And saw them fall all gashed and last;
And then in dreams saw foeman fly,
And heard the shout of victory,
Above the trumpet s thrilling blast.
He dreamed of conquest and of l0h ole,
And of his name upon the scroll
OF fame immortal. Then he woke.
But not to die midst fame and smoke,
And death shots falling thick and fast
But to the consciousness that dreams
Are things that run to strange extremes.

Some moralists first that tits right
To last, if the object in sight
Is to do good deed;
But trust you don't heed
Their soDhistical teachings a mite.
Truth, truth without counting the cost;
Let this standard by you me- er be lost,
If you would know peace.
Joy, contentment and ease
When your head shall be touched by Time s

Within the last of aChoLe we find
Men of most peculiar kind,
And amongst the motley crew
I'm panied to see some women, too.
How odd their notions do appear!
Their brains are added all, fear,
For such droll notions they have got,
They seem to be half-crazed lot
Each has his hobby, each his within,
That is the world and all to him
Whims so stupid and so drou
AS to pervade his Utmost soul
Duns may make us melancholy,
Fools may vex us with their folly:
In prison we may robbers put,
And madmen in asylums shut:
Book agents pesky we may boot,
May poison rats and mad dogs shoot:
But with the whole 1 have in view
What is the thing we ought to do.
