Applications for space in the Elec-
tricity building at the Worlds Fair
aggregate $4,000 square feet, while
only $4,000 feet are available.
Foreign nations have already been
assigned $4,000 feet, and several Of
them are urgently asking for more.
The Kansas State Normal School,
which has 1900 pupils, and is the
largest in the West, will make an
exhibit at the w World's Fair.
On each side of the MacMonies
mammoth memorial fountain in front
of the Administration building at
the Worlds Fair will be a huge
electrical fountain which will throw
stream $50 feet high, brilliantly
illuminated by variously colored
electric lights.
The nitrate ind ustry of Chill will
be illustrated by an elaborate exhib-
it at the Worlds Fair.
A false statement is going the
rounds Of the press to the effect that
visitors will not be able to get any
drinking water at the Worlds Fair
without paying for it. There will
be an abundance Of excellent water
free to all who want it. Those who
wish to drink min eral spring water,
piped to the Exposition grounds
from Waukesha, Wis, a hundred
miles distant, will have to pay one
cent a glass for it. The free water
will be that Of Lake Michigan,
brought by tunnel from point tour
miles from shore, and much better
than the inhabitants of most large
cities are supplied with.
The Worlds Fair souvenir coins,
some of them, it is now expected,
will be issued in November, proba-
bly, by the middle of the month.
The Exposition authorities have
offered quantities of them to banks
throughout the country at the
uniform rate of one dollar each, and
it is believed that those institutions
will be prompt to avail themselves
of the opportunity to get q supply
for their customers. Orders for
them are already being sent in at q
the rate Is, 900 to 10000 day.
Colonel Culp and the committee
on ceremonies have completed the
seating arrangements in the big
Manufactures building for the
crowds that will attend the Worlds
Fair dedicatory exercises in October.
In the center Of the great building,
which, under the main arch meas
ures $50 by 1890 feet, are to be two
great platforms, one at each end OF
the building and the two joined by
a platform about one thousand fee:
long. This platform will have seats
for $500 people, and the other will
provide room for over 1000 musi-
clans. There are to be $4,000 seats
on the main floor.
Since 1854 Illinois women have
taken out 284 patents for inven ions
and devices OF one kind and another.
The Illinois Worlds Fair board will
exhibit copies Of all of these patents,
and models of all of the inventions
that can be obtained.
