| The book is handsomely bound in white
kid, decorated with beautiful design OF
wild roses, and the poems are printed on
thick paper in different styles of art types,
and with various and unique designs In
| the arrangement of lines, verses, etc.,
making a tasteful and elegant volume.
Our home publishers may well be proud
of the excellent work shown in the print
ing and binding of the volume, for 1T is
doubtful if any of the eastern publishers
could have accomplished anything more
artistic and excellent than this.
The book is kept in a handsome cabinet
in the library of the Woman's building,
and attracts much attention. There is a
shelf reserved for Utah in the cases in the
central and principal hall OF the library
but few books have as yet been placed
there, two bound volumes of Mrs. II. b.
Wells journal, the IVondR'S Exponent,
being the only books on exhibit. The
chief collection of Utah's books and
literature in general is in the Utah
Building, where the works of o. f.
Whitney. Alfred Lambourne and all the
other Utah writers who have published
volumes OF prose are represented, tn col
lection occupying the bookcase which
once belonged to Brigham Young and
which is one OF the interesting exhibits
in the building.
Besides the books written by indlvid-
uals are also bound volumes OF the No
mans Exponent, Contributor, JuUe7slle IN
stractor and other home productions, the
whole making creditable and note
worthy display in the line of Utah's lit
erary talent.
With regard to the display o
art at the exposition, Utah
has every reason to be PROUD
the works of some of the
principal of our home artists being rep.
resented in the wonderful array of paint
ings and sculptures in the great art pal
ace-and all OF it, there or elsewhere
comparing each in its way with any sim
liar subject or work of art in the exhibi
ton.
Dallin's statue of Brigham Young at
the Utah building, together with hi,
mounted Indian, and the bust of DR.
Hamilton in the art building, have at
tracted marked attention and praise; tn
pictures of 81 H. Harwood, Will Claw
son and J. Evans, which are hung in the
art gallery, while not as striking or con
spicuous as some of the work which
has been done by each, are yet remark
ABLY excellent productions a fact at
tested sufficiently indeed, in their selec
ton for place in this palace Of honor
and II. L. a. Culmer's painting O
mountain scenery in the Utah building
: is worthy to be ranked with any simila
! subject in the art or any other buildin!
at the exposition.
Will Clawson's picture, scene of tn
| Grand canal at Venice, is eXcellentl
done, but is hung a little too high up t
give view which would enable one t
, gain a full appreciation Of its merits.
