and it is understood that Phra Nuvatr' S
selection is practically determined.
Siam has an interesting and valua-
BILE exhibit in the Manufactures build
ing. It is displayed in a pagoda,
brought from Siam for the purpose.
Much of the woodwork is. gilded, and
the supports are inlaid in glass, giving
the whole gorgeous oriental appear
ance of gold and silver The pagoda
is decked with gilded statuettes of
Buddha, and above all floats the ban
ner of the white elephant entwined
with the stars and stripes.
Secretary Ricchiardi explains that
precious metals and gems are more
plentiful in Siam than money, and the
exhibit seems to bear him out. Here,
for instance, are cuspidors made of
gold alleged with copper, valued at
$500, while over in the Agricultural
ments finished in mother-of.pearl
Some marvellous carvings in ivory are
shown, and in front Of the pagoda are
enormous elephant tuslrs, valued at
50, 900 apiece. There are beautiful
pieces in silver most deliberately
chased, and a great rice bowl used by
Buddhist priests is worth $4,000.
The collection is rich in gold, silver
and ivory in many strange and beauti-
full forms. There are papier mache
dishes in1aid with mother of pearl, Gu
rious musical instruments, fine tapes
tries, interesting photos of Siamese
scene, and odd pictures of the dragon
mythology of Buddhism.
r, The prominent feature of the agri-
cultural display is pyramid of pre-
served fruits, which reveal wonderful
patience ON close inspection. Here are
squashes cut into small pieces, whick
have been carved into roses and other
flower forms. Sweet potatoes have been
cut into roses and crystallized. Roses
themselves have been crystallzed and
retain their odor.
In the Forestry building Siam has a
fine exhibit Of native woods, the chief
specimen being mammoth piece of
teak wood, the largest ever exported.
It is 9 feet long, 5 feet and inches
wide, and inches thick.
In the transportation building are
shown the various vehicles used in
Siam Among these are the bullock
carriages, the joss chairs used by priests
in carrying idols, the blue chairs for
weddings and other ceremonies, the
green chairs for officials, and the sew
eral varieties of boats.
The Woman's building has a valuable
and interesting collection.

More to Follow.

Geo. Simonds and his two
sons who arrived from the east
some weeks since, have rented
part of J. l.. Eckert's farm near
Cottonwood and are busy turn
ing sod. If the country meets
their expectations we are in
formed that several families will
come from Ohio and locate with
us. This backward spring is
rather discouraging to the stran-
gers but when they read their
eastern papers and see that the
trouble is general they cannot
judge the country as harshly as
they otherwise would.

A Correction.

A few issues since the REPORT
published an article on the ac-

town and represented himself as
having been sent by the people
of Grangeville to work against
the mill proposition. We now
learn that this man not only
misrepresented himself, but was
employed but a short time in one
of the -four mills at that place.
Grangeville is therefore in nc
wise responsible for his actions
here.
