LOOKING OVER THE LAGOON.

One of the Prettiest Things About the
Columbian Exposition-The Domain of
the Landscape Gardener-An Incompar-
able Plan.
One of the prettiest things about the
grounds will be the view looking south over
the Lagoon where it extends between the
buildings of manufactures and decorative
arts on the east and the Electrical Building
on the west. On the extreme right of the
picture portion of the east front and one
of the towers of the Electrical Building are
visible. Beyond and opposite the building
across the basin is seen part Of the Palace
OF Machinery, its eastern facade crowded
with domes and towers. This is the domain
of the Ian dsca pc gardener, and will be de-
voted to flowers, shrubbery and gravel
walks. Some four feet above this terrace is
the great paved platform serving as base
to the buildings. This platform is finished
with balustrades, vases and statuary, and
approach to it from the first terrace is
gained at intervals by monumental flights of
steps,
This view, down the Lagoon toward the
basin, represents part OF the grounds
where the buildings are most thickly clus-
tered, where distances are at the minimum,
and where the prospective is least extended.
Picture then the grand scale on which the
scheme is being worked out, the care and
attention that has been given to produce
imposing effects and magnificent vistas; and
the enticement offered to architects and ar
lists to create masterpieces Surely the

IN THE SHAPE OF A VESSEL.
The Building in Which the Naval Exhibit Is
to be Placed.

The Building in Which the Naval Exhibit Is
to be Placed.
As shown in the above cut the exhibit of
the Navy Department will be in building
built in the form of modern war vessel
and resting on piling short distance out in
the lake.
The berth deck will be used, in the main,
as the exhibit deck of models and various
other naval appliances, such as have hereto
fore been shown on the exhibition floor of
the previous exhibitions. The exterior, the
main deck, the battery deck, and the mill
tary mast, will be a fac s1mile of the three
battle ships now being constructed. The
turrets will be in place, the guns in place,
the boats in place, and, in fact, all the ap-
pliances as far as may be practicable.
The armament of these vessels, and
which will be represented in
the proposed building, will consist of four
13-inch guns, eight S-inch guns, four 6-inch
guns, 20 six-pounders. and a number of
smaller guns which will be mounted on the
upper deck and on the military mast The
vessels of which this building will be a
prototype are larger, heavier and more
formidable than any ever built in this coun-
try. They are also equipped with torpedo
tubes and torpedo boats, and protected by
17-inch thickness of armor plating.
All the appliances at the service of a
modern naval commander, such as torpedo
netting, torpedo guns, search lights, ETC.,

The Woman's Building is moving along
at surprising rate. The timbers for the
first floor and some of those for the second
are already in place. They are visible far
above the big board fence, and make the
passerby long to get in and see what is 60
ing on.
The Mines and Mining Building is al
ready finished as far as the foundation is
concerned, and the same is true of the Elec-
tricity Building. Work on both of these
structures has been temporarily stopped by
order of Chief Architect Burnham, who re-
Gently assumed charge of these buildings in
place of Chief Engineer Abraham Gottleib
resigned. The reason for this stoppage is
not yot definitely known. The probabili-
ties are that Mr.. Burnham merely
wants to verify the estimates of
Mr.. Gottleib as to strength of
materials, with view of strengthening the
foundations if it seems necessary to do so.
Mr.. Gottlieb is looked upon as very COM
petent man. 1t is he who has the contract
for the structural iron work on the 20-story
Masonic building at State and Randolph
streets in this city.
READY FOR THE START.
Upon the sites of the Horticultural and
Transportation buildings everything is
ready for the work of building to commence.
Great piles of material are already upon the
ground.
Hundreds of men are at work on every
kind of constructional work. Trenches are
being dug for water mains and gas mains
and underground ducts for electric light
wires. Within few days an electric plant
will be in operation sufficient to light the
mile and half of lake front from end to
end, and then work will go ahead by night
as well as by day.
The birds eye view above does not by
any means show the whole of the site. 1t
is only the unimproved Southern portion
of jackson Park, which is about three
fourths of the whole
To the north, within the improved por-
tion, is to be located the art galleries, COW
ering space 320 by 500 feet, and facing to
the north. Within easy distance of the
art galleries on the spaces allotted to the
various States, that of Pennsylvania has al
ready been allotted. 1t is directly north of
and faces the center of the art galleries
and is about $50 by 200 feet in
dimensions. Adjoining Pennsylvania in the
east is New York, with precisely the same
space. Both lots are located on the line Of
F'ifty-seyenth street, extended east through
the park in the most prominent and con-
spicuous locations to be had. Ohio has a
large slice of park just west of the art gal
lery building, and West Virginia has an ex-
cellent location a short distance north of
that of Pennsylvania. 1t is very evident that

cornice is 65 feet There is an entrance on
each side of the building, the grand en-
frances being at the north and south ends.
These are 10 feet high and 80 feet wide,
each opening into vestibule SS feet high
and elaborately decorated. At each corner
of the building there is pavilion 6s feet
square and 80 feet high, surmounted by a
dome. A balcony 60 feet wide and 25 feet
high encircles the building, and leading to
it are eight stairways. The roof is of glass,
100 feet from the floor. The cost will be
$3.50, ,000
The gold and silver mining States of the
West, especially Colorado and California,
are preparing to make great exhibits in this
department, and every stage of the process
of obtaining gold and silver and converting
it into the finished product will be shown.
Their mining machinery is, of course, of a
more interesting character than that in use in
the coal mining districts about Pittsburg and
Western Pennsylvania, but that is no rea-
son why the latter should not be fully rep
resented. It is understood that an elaborate
display will be made by the anthracite coal
miners of the eastern end of the State.

THE WOMAN'S BUILDING.

A Remarkable Feature of the Coming Ex-
position is the Active Part That Is Be-
ing Taken by the Fair Sex-A Model
Kitchen and Cooking School.
Nothing is more remarkable about Chi
cago than the conspicuous part the women
play in everything. They are on the School
Board, on the Board of Factory Inspectors,
few of them have clubbed together and
put up 12-story Office building-fner than
nine-tenths of those erected by the men;
they have invaded almost every kind of
business and are successful, too, and in the
Exposition they are going to play an i'm
portant part The Woman's Building, a cut
of which is given above, will occupy con-
spicuous place on the grounds. As THE
DISPATCH readers are aware, it was de-
signed by Miss Sophia G. Hayden, of Boston,
who won the 81 200 prize given by the lady
managers for the'best design.
The style of architecture is Italian Re-
naissance, with end and center pavilions.
The first story is Doric, the second Ionic
and the whole is covered with low italian
roof By modification of the original plan

of staff The management hailed the
new material with cry of joy. 1t seemed
to be means of salvation from serious
financial difficulties. And the Autographs
that have been printed show that by artistic
ally using different colors in the same
building very fine effects can be obtained.
THE FOUNDATION BEGUN.
The foundation of the building devoted
to manufactures and decorative arts has Just
been begun. As will readily be seen from
the drawing, this is by all odds the largest
and most important building of the entire
exhibition.
1t is situated on a slight elevation,
made by using the sand scooped out of the
Lagoon and other water ways. Its
principal front will be toward
Lake Michigan. Along its south end
the great basin is located, and along its
west side meanders the canal connecting
the great basin with the Lagoon. As it ap-
pears now, the site of this building is COW
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1891-08-24

cred with great piles of timber to be used
in its construction, which are delivered on
the ground by spur of track running into
the center of the foundation.
The Administration Building, with its
observatory-like dome, has not yet been
begun, but the eminence on which it is to
rest has already assumed form. Standing
upon it one can overlook the whole of the
park, and the scene is very animated one
indeed, and one which is sure to impress
the visiting stranger that Chicago means
business. This point is the center of a net
work of temporary railroad tracks con-
Meeting with all the trunk lines leading to
Chicago.
There are $4,000 feet of it altogether, and

A PLACE FOR PITTSBURG.

The Iron City Expected to Furnish Many of
the Exhibits in Machinery HaII-It Will
Be a Palace for the Mechanical Arts
An Effective Background.
It is safe to say that no part Of the Ex-
position will be quite so interesting to the
average visitor from Pittsburg as Ma
chinery Hall. There he will find the
choicest products of his own shops, the
mills and factories, for which that city is
famous the world over, in competition with
the products of other mills where the work
men think themselves quite as ingenious
and brainy, if not little more so.
The main Machinery Building measures
$50 by 800 feet. 1t is spanned by three
arched trusses, and the interior will present

Horticultural Hall, in the proposed plan
of the Exposition, faces east on the Lagoon.
In front is flower terrace for outside ex-
hibits, including tanks for nympheas and
the victoria-regia. The front of the terrace
with its low parapet between large vases,
borders the water, and at its center forms a
boat landing.
The building is 1000 feet long, with an
extreme width of 2S6 feet. The plan is a
central pavilion with two end pavilions.
each connected to the center pavilion by
front and rear curtains, forming two interior
courts, each SSx27O feet. These courts are
beautifully decorated in color and planted
with ornamental shrubs and flowers.
The center pavilion is rooted by crystal

ride from point to point on horseback,
shouting their orders to the gangs of work
men.
Everywhere the word is "Rush," and the
spirit of rush seems to pervade everything
within the grounds. Most of the contracts
are taken with close time limit, with
forfeiture for every day of delay beyond
specified period, and the necessity of hurry
ing is very apparent.

the appearance of three railroad train
houses, side by side, surrounded on all the
four sides by 5o-foot gallery. The trusses
are to be built separately, and so they can
be taken down and sold for use as railroad
train houses, and it is hoped to have iron
trusses instead of cheaper ones, which may,
however, be necessary. In each of these
three long naves there is to be an elevated
travelling crane. running from end to end
of the building These will be useful in
moving machinery, and when the E1posi-
tion opens platforms will be placed on

exhibits are to be housed? And will it not
impress them unfavorably that a nation eel
ebrating the four hundredth anniversary of
its birth chooses buildings covered with
cheap counterfeit imitation of stone, in
which to conduct the celebration? The girl,
who receives her visitor in a calico dress
that cost cents yard, is apt to be thought
deficient in taste and good breeding.
Still nobody in Chicago objects to the use

railroad is to be the plainest description.
On the two sides djoining the grand court,
the exterior will, however, be rich and pal
atial. All the buildings on this grand
piazza are designed with a view to making
an effective background for displays of
every kind, and in order to conform to the
general richness of the court, are enriched
with colonnades and other architectural
features.

hibits requiring sunshine and light will be
shown in the rear curtains, where the roof
is entirely of glass and not too far removed
from the plants The front curtains and
under the galleries are designed for exhibits
that require only the ordinary amount of
light. Provision is made to heat such parts
as require it.
The exterior of the building is in staff or
stucco, tinted soft warm buff, color being
reserved for the interior and the courts.
The appropriation for this building is $780,
900. 1t will probably be built for some
thing less than this sum.

A Southsider Charges Larceny Against Two
Installment Hardware Men.

"A SOuInSluer CnarSeS Larceny Against Two
Installment Hardware Men.
Joseph Pentecost, of South Nineteenth
and Wharton streets, has caused the
arrest of Frank Snow and George Hardy,
two Southside business m3p, on charges Of
larceny. Snow and Hardy keep furniture
and hardware store at South Twentieth and
Carson streets. A few weeks ago Pentecost
says he bought stove valued at S1S from
them on the instalment plan. He had
paid S11 Is on the stove, and through sick
ness says he missed one payment.
Shortly after this he left home for a
couple of days, and on returning he found
the stove missing. His wife told him that
the two men had come to the house early
one morning, and after gaining admission,
took the stove and hauled it away. Mrs.
Pentecost says she demonstrated with them,
and that Snow assaulted her. An informa-
tion has also been entered against Snow for
assault and battery. All three cases will
be given a hearing by Alderman Beinhauer
some time this week.

ONE KIND OF GRATITUDE.
Emily Wilson Supposed to Have Carried on
Jewelry.

Jewelry.
Emily Wilson, an English woman, who
was taken into an Allegheny home as
stranger, because she was an object of char
ity, has disappeared and with her
went considerable jewelry and money.
Miss Wilson arrived in Pitts
burg last week from England
and was to have met her brother at the
Union depot. The brother failed to put in
an appearance and the young woman was
in pitiable plight, a stranger in strange
land, without money or friends.
Depot Master Butler heard the woman's
story and interested himself in her behalf.
The result was that position was found for
her in the Penn Mills, in Allegheny, and
she secured boarding at No. 40 Darrah
street. Thursday Miss Wilson mysteri-
ously disappeared from the boarding house,
and at the same time gold watch, gold
ring and $50 i'll money belonging to man
named Hawkins also took a mysterious
fight.
The police were notified, but it is sup

now only on paper; the pile driving has not
yet begun.
a striking feature of the buildings-ift the
present plans are carried out-will be their
varied colors and their apparently substan-
tial character At a little distance they will
look as if they had been built of brown or
red or gray stone, and built to last for
ages. In that respect as we'll
as in many other appearances
will be somewhat deceitfuL Almost every
one of the buildings will be built of wood.
Outside of the wood will be placed coarse
wire netting and upon that, as a lath, will
be placed a stucco-lize material known
among builders as ''staff." Built in this
way they Will not be as durable nor as
strong as If structural steel and terra Gotta
had been used, but the cost will be vastly
less and the time and trouble of getting the
buildings up and ready will be only frac-
ton of what it would be if the same materi-
ais were to be used here as were used in
Philadelphia in 1876. Staff has great
many other advantages 1t can be colored
to any desired tint.
coLoRs OF THE RAINBOW.
One building can be made red and an
other gray by simply adding the proper
coloring material, and any sort Of exterior
finish can be obtained simply by using the
kind of finishing apparatus that may be
necessary to produce it. 1t is said to be a
French invention, and was used on some of
the buildings at the Paris exposition. The
chief reason for using it, of course, is be-
cause it is cheap. Without it the builders
would be at the mercy of the structural
iron men.
The saving is estimated to reach far up
into the millions The greatest objection
to ii, perhaps, is sentimental one-it is
counterfeit and a sham; it derives its title
TO be used from the fact that
it seems to be that which
il is not. When foreigners come
are they not apt to judge everything from
the character Of the buildings in which their
