come the wealth of fruit and flowers
peculiar to each locality. The several
states of the union are here, pitted in
intense but friendly rivalry. Semi
tropical fruits, plants and flowers from
the southern states will illustrate to
the world the balmy aspect of nature
in those favored climes. Hardy an
nuals from the extreme north, the rich
and variegated product of fruit orchards
in the middle and western states will
all serve as object lessons of the special
adaptation of certain localities to horti-
culture. Within the limits of the horti-
cultural exhibit will be shown the
products of a score of different eli
mates. Artificial temperature for ten
der plants, scientific care, and row of
greenhouses in working order will give
the visitor a practical idea of the pos
sibilities of horticulture.
The Horticultural exhibit at the

will find plenty to interest them, but
it is not solely their show. The mil

DRY of the Horticultural exhibit is main
ly based on the popular idea. The Wis
itor from an obscure rural district or
from the heart of a great city. whose
sole conception of flowers is limited to
few superficial details, will here have
a world of knowledge presented. The
possibilities of floral culture to those
who love flowers will be one of the
main features in the horticultural DIS
play.
For the special benefit of those who
make a close study of plants and flow
ers there will be scientific experiments
from day to day within the cave in the
center of Horticultural building. To
the mass of visitors these experiments
will not appeal strongly, however fas-
cinating and instructive to the few.
For the benefit of the people at large

the department of Horticulture has been
arranged to make a speciality of spec
tacular effects. Outside as well as in
side the building the most artistic eff
fects have been planned on a scale
that has never known parallel in any
similar exposition. Masses of color,
flaming as the sunset, or delicate as
the early dawn. will be spread on the
lawns in front of the building and on
the wooded island. Fountains, garden
plats, rustic seats and other restful eff
fects will tempt the visitor who is
weary of the magnificence in other
parts of the grounds. Inside the build
ing the tropical verdure will transplant
the visitor to the sunny southland
Winding pathways through the courts
and curtains of the building will lead
on TO fresh revelations. Around the
interior of the great dome has been
built gallery, from which the visitor
may look out upon vistas of verdure
and brilliant color.
Horticultural hall itself contains
bined areas of the Horticultural
buildings at the centennial, New
Orleans and Paris. 1t is one
thousand feet long. with an ex-
treme width of two hundred and eighty
seven feet Tine dome is one hundred
and eighty-seven feet in diameter, with
an interior height of one hundred and
thirteen feet The largest tree ferns,
palms, bamboos and giant cacti are
here exhibited. Front and rear cur
tains connect the dome with two end
pavilions forming two interior courts,
each lightweight by two hundred and
seventy feet. The front curtains have
glass roofs and are devoted entirely to
Horticulture. The rear curtains are
partly covered with glass, and will be
mainly filed by the exhibit of green
fruits The end pavilions are for the
wine exhibit, a portion of the fruit dis
play. Orchids, dahlias, pelargoniums
and Towering ANIMALS will be among
the principal features of the fall dis
play.
During the whole period of the expo
sition there will be weekly displays of
cut flowers on each Tuesday. The sea-
sonal varieties of cut flowers will be as
complete and as exhaustive as in the
main departmental exhibits Pansies
in the spring and again 'pansies in the
fall form the outer limits, between
which the artistic skill of the designer
will have an endless chain of beauty.

show that the women all over the state
took advantage of the opportunity to
vote, and it is universally conceded
that the woman's suffrage movement
has received a great impetus Repub-
lican politicians and newspapers
are claiming that the returns show
great victory for them and an
Endorsement of the course pur-
sued by the republicans in the legisla-
ture. The populists, on the other hand,
declare that the election results have
no political significance, and are even
more eager than the republicans to
give the women an opportunity 70 vote
for state offices They contend that
the farmers wives will turn out on
election day en- masse, and that their
vote in the state would be easily
doubled by comforting the right of suf-

Wonderful Display Being Made by the
PomoIogists of the North.
In the south curtain of the Horticul-
tural building Minnesota is preparing
an extremely interesting genealogical
exhibit This display takes added in
terest from the fact that Minnesota is
the extreme northern state where
pomaceous fruits are perfectly devel-
oped. More than 500 square feet have
been assigned that state. An appro-
priation of five thousand dollars was
made by the Minnesota legislature for
the exhibit, which consists of every
variety of fruit grown in the state, in
GLIDING apples, plums, pears, grapes,
peaches and small fruits of all kinds
The exhibit occupies the central por-
ton of the east side. and from the
unique manner of its arrangement will
be one of the most attractive displays
in the section devoted to pomology
Shelves will be arranged inside the
pavilion to accommodate seven hun.
dred plates of fruit The shelves will
be backed by mirrors which will re-
fleet light upon the fruit, thereby
heightening their colors and producing
an illusion as to the number of speci-
nc on each plate. Refrigerator cases
viii .e used to show the different fruits
in season. and large refrigerator,
twenty-three feet long, will demon
strate the cold-storage methods of pre-
serving the luscious morsels A col
lection of photographs of fruit scenes
in Minnesota will form part of the ex-
hibit.
At each side of the main exhibit will
be placed revolving stands five feet
wide and eight feet high. They will
be kept in constant motion by electric
motors. Upon them, in pyramid form,
will be placed small fruits, and at the
base of the pyramid will be native
Towering plants and trailing vines.
Every thing employed in preparing for
the exhibit is from Minnesota, includ-
ing the lumber, paint and hardware,
and the work is done by artisans
brought here from that state To
Minnesota is due the credit and praise
of being the first exhibitor in the Sec
ton of pomoiogy to build structure
