CHICAGO, Jan. 13.-Few people, except
those who have spent "A lifetime in profess
sions orin business having relation to build
ing operations, can fully realize the magni-
Jude of the task that is to be accomplished
before the various contemplated structures
arc ready for the reception of their CON
tents. Nearly 800, OOO-a decidedly good
sized fortune in itself-win have to be ex-
pended on the very ground before a single
foundation stone is laid or a central pier

yards Of sand has first to be dredged from
the location decided upon for the lagoon.
and then to be used in filling up the uneven
portions OF Jackson park. Even this i'm
meuse quantity, however, will not be uhi-
clent for the latter purpose, and 1000
cubic yards additional is to be dug from
excavations.
Still another quarter OF a million yards
OF sand is to be sought for down on the
Indiana state line on the lake front, or
elsewhere, while 436, 900 yards OF black
earth is to be procured for possible con-

latter, however, getting n little the best Of
the deal in a financial sense.
The entire force OF officials of the fair,
national and local, is now located on the
fourth door of the imposing ten story
structure at Adams and Quincy streets,
known as the Rand-McNally building, and
here every man and woman officially iden-
titled with the enterprise can be addressed
for the next three years. At present there
are but ifty-sir names on the pay roll,
but when several OF the departments,
which rs yet are in u state OF coma, are
quickened i4to life, this number will be
doubled and trebled. In all, the quarters
cover no less than 10000 square feet of
space.
Director General Davis has a spacious
and elegant suite, while Chief Handy, Of
the press bureau, has been successful in
p~ersuadinE the powers that be to concede
him three times as many apartments as
had been allotted to his bureau on the
original plan. Experienced newspaper
man as he is, he has shown himself alive to
the requirements Of members of the pro-
fession from out of town by setting aside
one of the best rooms Of his suite for their
accommodation and convenience.
Miss Phoebe Couzins, the secretary OF the
women's board, and who is buckling down
to work with a determination in keeping
with her previous reputation, has the room
next TO that Of Secretary Butterworth,
while the quarters OF Mrs. Potter Palmer
adjoin those OF her lady colleague on the
right. The largest room OF all, and which
is really six apartments thrown into one,
is fitted up with forty-ive desks, and looks
for all the world like IA miniature of the
senate chamber at Washington. Here it
is that the national commission n the
local directory will sit in Judgment.

An experiment in Jurisprudence is being
made in Minnesota which will be closely
watched and the results carefully noted.
BY an amendment to the constitution five,
sixths OF a jury are authorized to render a
verdict in all civil cases. and judged by the
laws of common sense this is an eminently
just and sensible conclusion. The decision
of ten men out OF twelve is more apt TO be
honest and reasonable than the enforced
agreement which the twelve have reached
after being imprisoned behind guarded
doors for hours in order to drive or starve
them into unAnimitY.

The errors OF Andrew Jackson are now
universally acknowledged, since Ameri-
cans have grown wise enough TO see that
greatness is not necessarily faultless. Omit
ting minor matters, the passages in his life
which all Americans now regret are three:
his marriage, his duels tpd other personal
encounters, and his so called appointment
and removal policy. Partisan malice once
painted his acts as flendishi his eulogists
made them Innocent or ~praisworthy. At

before them, the Inyo and the Argus noun
