FISHERIES BUILDING.
delivered by gentlemen eminent in their
special fields of work, embracing every in
terest connected with live stock, agricult-
ure and its allied industries.
When one considers that in this room al
most daily there will be lectures delivered,
papers read and discussions had, conduct
ed by eminent specialists from all parts OF
the world, the importance of such a build
ing for educational purposes is apparent.
Taken in connection with the exhibits, this
feature will make that part of the EXPOSE
ton devoted to live stock, agriculture and
horticulture complete gathering together
of all that an advanced civilization Is capa-
BILE of producing. In the Assembly Room
the most approved theories will be ad-
vanced and explained. On the grounds
and in the Agricultural and Horticultural
buildings will be the best illustrations OF
what can be accomplished when these the
cries are put into practice.
Men who have made the dairy business,
for instance, IA life study will read papers
and deliver lectures on matters connected
with the dairy; and close at hand, in full
operation, it is hoped to have a working
dairy, airording practical object lesson OF
the improved methods which have been ap
piled to this industry. And SO through all
the branches of agriculture and horticult
ure, the Exposition as an educational
means will be both theoretical and practi
cal.
The entire second floor of the Assembly
Building is given up to committee rooms
and rooms for headquarters for each and al
of the different farmers organizations in
existence in this country 1t will furnish q
definite and pleasant home for all such or
CARNATIONS during the entire time of the
Exposition, where each may have its secre
tary or other official constantly in attend
ance to furnish information and transact
other business, and where the member
can hold such consultations as they ma,
desire

PERSPECTIVE OF SOUTH LAGOON.

FCn0FCSltVC VT oOStH GN6CON'
The view is taken looking south through
the lagoon, which lies between the building
for manufacturers and that for the display
of electricity. This lagoon crosses the great
basin, and terminates beyond the second
bridge at the obelisk and fountain.
On the extreme right of the picture por-
ton of the east front and one of the towers
of the Electrical Building are visible. Be-
yond and opposite the Building across the
basis is seen part of the palace of Machin-
cry, its eastern facade crowned with domes
and towers.
On the extreme left is seen corner OF
the west front Of the Manufacturers
Building, and opposite this and across the
basin the building for the agricultural ex-
hibit This building lis connected with
the palace of Machinery by the long col
onnade in the center background, form
ing a great portico entrance to the live
stock grounds farther south, and at the
same time completing the monumental
group on the south Of the great basis. A
triple arch bridge spans the lagoon in the
foreground, affording communication be-
tween the Electrical and Manufacturers
buildings. 1t is only one of many such
bridges which will be built in other parts
OF the grounus.
Notice to the right or the left tire man
ner of terracing. From the water rises a
sea wall whose coping guards access to the
first terrace. In this wall gates and jet
ties will be arranged so that landings can
be effected from the small boats Of the
paek. This first terrace is the domain OF
the landscape gardener, and will be devoted
to flowers, shrubbery and gravel walks.
Some four feet above this terrace is the
great paved platform serving as a base to
the buildings. This platform is finished
with balustrades, vases and .statuary, and
approach to it from the first terrace ID
gained at intervals by monumental flights
| Of steps.
This view, looking as it does down the
lagoon toward the great basin, represents
part of the grounds where the buildings

this way, by frequent comparison Of de
signs, they have entleavored to obtain for
the quadrangle, which is the main archi-
tectural feature Of the Exposition, a unity
OF feeling, recalling in scale and character
the most dignified and important mani
festations of architecture obtained in the
baths and forums of classic times.
According to agreement among the arthi-
tects OF the buildings around the quad
rangle, the Electricity Building will, like
the rest, have an. open portico extending
along the whole Of the south facade, the
lower or Ionic order forming an open screen
In front Of it. The various subordinate
pavilions are treated with windows and
balconies The details of the exterior orders
are richly decorated, and the pediments,
friezes, panels and spandrils will receive a
decoration OF figures in relief. with archi-
tectural motifs, the general tendency OF
which will be to illustrate the purposes Of
the building. 1t is intended that the
friezes Of the Ionic order shall bear in each
bay the name OF discoverer or inventor
associated with the development Of the sci
ence Of electricity, thus setting forth bio
graphical history Of the science.
In the design OF this building it il PRO-
posed by the architects to 90 devise its de-
tails and general outlines that they may
be capable of providing an electric iIlu-
minathon by night on scale hitherto I'M
known. the flagstaffs, the open porticoes
and the towers especially being arranged
with this in view. 1t is proposed that the
hemicycie or niche which forms the south
porch shall have either great chandelier
or crown OF lights suspended from the CEN
ter Of the half dome, or shall be provided
