Delaw ares Roll of Honored Sons

When Governor Reynolds arose to re.
spond to the toast "The State of Della
wale," he was greeted with round after
round Of hearty applause. AS soon as it
subsided, he said:
"Mr, President and Gentlemen: There
are times in a mans life when language
is inadequate to express the feelings Of
his heart, and one of those times with a
Delawsrean is when he is called upon to
speak for his state. We cannot boast Of
our broad acres, our great mineral re-
sources or our naturally fertile soil, but
with pleasure we may properly recur to
our state history and to the long roll Of
her honored and distinguished citizens.
If we are not great in acres we are
great in producing great men. The
history of our statesmen is a part OF the
history Of our country. In fact there
has never been an hour since the forma
tion of our Federal Government but that

Six Workmen Lose Their
Lives While Asleep in a
Tenement House.
The Flames Spread So Rap
idly That They Could Not
Be Saved.
Evidence That the Building
Had Been Saturated With
Kerosene.
The Police Suspect a Servant
Girl Of Setting the
Fire.

BURLINGTON, To-, April 3O.-Six
lives were lost in fire in a tenement
house, $50 jefferson street, at an early
hour this morning. When the iremen
arrived 1t was discovered that several of
the inmates of the building were still in
their rooms, but the rapidity with
which the flames spread rendered futile
every effort to save them. When the fire
had beensubdued and theworkmen could
gain an entrance to the building, sick
ening sight met their eyes. Six black
ened corpses were found in the upper
rooms, where they had been caught like
rats in trap. The names of the victims
are:
f. G. SCHUMAN.
MICHAEL HINES.
MICHAEL LEE.
JOHN MORGAN.
CHARLIE, a boilermaker.
JOSEPH n. SWINDLER.
The lodging house was kept by Mr..
JudsOn, and was patr0niZed by the
poorer class of laDOrers and mechanics.
The fire started shortly after o'clock
in the room of q servant girl, Jennie
Bailey, who tells a singular story. She
says some one raped on her door, and
mans voice called her to get up, as it
was time TO get breakfast. She heard
match struck in the hail, and
directly after a sheet of fire burst under
her door and ran across the floor as if
following a stream of oil. She ran up
stairs to wake Mrs. Judson, the wife OF
the proprietor. and the fire spread so
rapidly that both women had to jump
from window. They were not seri-
ously hurt. The police are Investigate
ing the matter.

1921. 900. In the main building the dis
plays are being rapidly placed IN posi-
tion. One of the most attractive sights
is the skeleton of a mammoth |hale,
suspended by wire cables from the roof.
There are boats Of every description ar
ranged about the building. The rude
canoe hewn from tree by Alaskan In
dians, and trim sailing smack are dis
piayed side by side. Vast quantities or
dried fish, caught in Norway waters.a .and
fish prepared in every conceivable man
ner are plentiful.
The west wing is devoted to BraziPs
exhibit and angling apparatus. Perhaps
the most interesting display i'll the
building is in the east wing. Here are
ten aQuaria, constructed of glass and
containing every form of fish and AMI
NAL life which it is possible to obtain.
IL is necessary, in order to secure perfect
safety for salt water fish, to snip salt
water here from the ocean. The water
is first eYaporated, shipped mere ana
diluted. In the center OF the building
Workmen are constructing huge aqua
rum, from which rises a mound of
rock. 1t is the intention to arrange a
system of water pipes so that fresh
water will issue from the rocks lnceS-
sanity. This aquarium will be populated
with fresh water fish. Around the court
adjoining the rotunda glass aquarla are
arranged for the reception Of almost
any number of fish.
Every variety Of fish from the half
vegetable formation found at the bot
tom of the sea, to the most active specl-
men known. may be seen and form
basis of interesting study for those so
inclined. All of the exhibits have not
yet been received and many of those in
the building have not been unpacked.
1t is asserted that every exhibit will be
in its place soon, but the indications
are that it will require some active
work to arrange it in less than two
weeks sHowever, the doors of the build
ing will be thrown opeE for visitors
after the opening exercises tomorrow.

FINE ARTS GALLERIES.
Great Britain and Germany Lead
in Placing Exhibits.


There is less confusion in the fine arts
galleries than in any other of the bull d.
ings, but this is owing much to the
fact that the exhibits are less cum ber-
some and more easily handled than
those in the old buildings. Some of the
exhibits are in excellent shape, notably
those of Great Britain and Germany,
whose work in all departments seems to
pc more advanced than of most of the
other nations. One trouble with the
galleries of fine arts is that the building
itself is not yet finished. Today
the person standing directly be-
meath the dome of the build
ing could look up at the dark gray sky,
which was visible through hole about
fifteen feet in diameter in the top or the
dome. The strong northeast wind,
which drove the rain in binding sheets,
sent clouds OF white spray dashlng
through the opening, and down upon
the main floor was pond of water
twenty-five feet in diameter. In one
end of this pond reposed little plaster
Cupid. who was soaking himself to death
with hopeless, pleasant smile on his
chalky face.
All around were piles of figures which
had been hastily snatched from the
pelting rain which had come through
the unfinished dome. Some of the men
III charge OF the exhibits said that they
would not unpack their exhibits until
the roof had been entirely repaired. In
the space allotted to Austria the work
is very we'll along, there being but few
pictures unhung. The American pict-
ures are in poor shape, but few OF them
being upon the wall. Spain is in worse
shape, there being but little done in her
department. Italy and Belgium are in
about the same condition, while Holland
is in fair way to have everything i'll
shape within a week. France, whose
exhibit is very large, is in trouble, and
it will take at least fortnight for her
work men to have matters in shape.
The paintings as rule are better pre-
pared for exhibition than the sculptures.
The vast majority of the latter are hud-
died together in different portions of
the building. and it will be some time
before they are grouped as they will be
through the period of the exposition.
The space beneath the dome is reserved
for the statues, and, as it would ruin
them to be placed there now, they will
remain in their present arrangement
until after the dome is fixed and the
scaffolding removed. However, despite
the confusion in the fine arts building,
the exhibition even now is great one.
The number of pictures in place is
larger than were hung at the centennial
in 1876, and is enough to satisfy any
reasonable being.
St. Paul daily globe., 1893-05-01

north and south ends of the rotunda
mural paintings immense in size have
been arranged. The series of three pan
els at the south end was executed by
Miss Cassel- in Paris. The series of
three at the north end was conceived
and painted by Mrs. McMounies, wife
of Sculptor McMounies. and was for
warded here from Paris. Among the
countries arranging exhibits are Eng
land, New South Wales, France, Italy,
Mexico, Japan, Siam, Norway, Sweden,
Spain, Ceylon, Russia, Germany, Aus
trla. The arranging of these exhibits
has not been entirely completed, but it
is expected that they will be in short
time. The east vestibule entrance has
been set aside for the English display.
One of the novelties of the states dis
play is that of California. On the sec
ond floor this state has finished room
in native redwood. Kentucky has a
typical old colonial room, finished in
white and gold. The most artistically
finished room is the library, decorated
in detail, with hand-painted canvas, re-
lieved by heavy gold cornice. The
model kitchen is situated in the north
wing, near the assembly room. Every
article displayed is from the hand of
woman. Especial interest is centered
In this building and its display, as this
is the first national or international fair
at which a display of this character has
been made.

Where Uncle Sam Will Do q Lit
tie Showing OFF.
Head and shoulders above everybody
else in sight today was Uncle Sam,
with a building and exhibit magnificent
in their completeness. Whatever else
where within the exposition limits
might have been said of disappointing
conditions, it would be poor speci-
men. indeed, of American citizen who
even in the bowling wind and drench-
ing rain, this afternoon. could approach
the United States government struct-
ure, or peer within, without delighted
thrill of exultation. Possibly never
more perfectly has the effectiveness
of the national resources been
brought to bear to meet condl-
ticns. From the stars and stripes
futtering above the huge red
dome and the great gilded eagle
over the entrance. to the tinlest OF de-
tails of the showing Of Uncle Sans
household affairs, everything was in
spick and span order. 1t is curious
fact, in striking contrast with the be-
Wildering confusion i'll so many other
places, that inside the federal walls in
the big space devoted to the army, the
most serious necessary preparation III
readiness tor tomOrroW'S opening was
being carried OH by two boys in blue
who were rubbing some stray flecks of
dust off of couple of life-like repre-.
sentations of government mules, at
tached to an ambulance. Near at hand
was fifty-two-ton specimen of modern
ordnance, exactly in place as it will be
throughout the exposition.
Similar system, order and readiness was
uniform, whether one chose to gaze at
the handsome model postoffice, with the
shining fast mail railway coach along
side; at the varied and complicated de-
vices for river and harbor improvement;
the state departments oil paintings of
famous Americans,a ,and cases of precious
documents; torpedoes that would hoist
a hostile man-of-war skyward; the ex-
emplifcations of Arctic explorations;
fascinating displays illustrating the
rarest natural history and geol-
ogy of the country, and the
curiosities of the patent office and so on.
The grandeur of the nation has fitting
type in the space under the great dome.

A Structure Which Challenges

With characteristic determination and
enterprise the lady managers of the
women's building have about completed
the installation of their exhibit. The
building and exhibit will stand as
monument to the energy and courage OF
women of the present era. The grace
full style and architecture OF the build

the more pretentious buildings at the
fair. Planned by Miss Hayden. OF Mas

interior of the building is heightened by
the beautiful specimens OF Women's

MINES AND MINING.
The Exhibit Will Not Be Ready for
Many Days.

-
Many Days.
The Mines and Mining building is
simply wilderness Of boxes. unfin ished
booths and unpacked exhibits. 1t will
be one month at the inside before this
building is in proper order. Through
out the entire length and breadth of the
building there is but one exhibit in
complete readiness, and that is the one
which came from the farthest end of
the earth, from New South Wales. This
is in place, and today was covered with
large white tarpaulinS which screened
it from the dust which rose i'll
clouds as the army Of workmen
pulled. tugged and slammed around
in their efforts 10 get the work done
quickly. The cause of the delay in the
preparation of this building for the
opening is due directly to the tardiness
of exhibitors in forwarding their goods.
The building was finished completely
over eight months ago, and has been
ready for exhibitors since that time.
The fact that the exhibit which had the
longest distance to cover is the first to
be ready, is conclusive evidence that II
other exhibitors had forwarded their
good promptly, it could long ago have
been placed in proper shape.
The exhibits of Utah and Idaho were
at noon today nothing but heaps OF
dirty boxes. Some of the boxes had
been unpacked, but not many, and
nothing had been done toward arrang-
ing the exhibits. Brazil was in no bet
ter state. and the samples of the mineral
wealth of Oregon were hidden from
sight in a mass of dusty cases which
were piled upon one another in dire
confusion. New Mexico was in no bet
ter shape, while Chilli was far ahead of
any of the American states. Its exhibit
is not yet arranged, but it is getting
there very rapidly. None of the other
foreign countries in this building is in
anything like preSentable shape, and
the space allotted to Spain is space and
nothing more. UP i'll the galleries,
which extend the entire 700 feet of the
building, matters are in no better shape.
The Standard Oil company, which
has the space at the north end of the
galleries, has but very little of its eX-
hibit in place. A large force of men
were at work in this portion of the
building, and it is expected that every
thing will be in shape in about two
weeks. Down on the floor of the build
ing, which covers nine acres OF space,
there was tremendous force of men,
all working with desperate energy.
Teams were trotting through the build
ing and the rattle and clang of switch
ing trains on the tracks which run
through the building from end to end.
added to the din raised by the work
men, who were erecting booths. der
ricks for hosting heavy mining machin-
cry and banging away upon engines
and boilers. Everybody was working
with all possible energy, but no force
of men, no human power, can arrange
| the exhibits in the mines and mining
building before May 20. and the force of
man cannot do il before June

in constructing and laying the first At
lantic cable. Included in this will be a
model of the steamship Great Eastern,
the original of which was used in laying
the first cable across the Atlantic.
Franklin's first lightning rod will be ex-
hibited in this department.
The electrical building is $50 feet in
length and $50 feet in width. and was
erected at cost of s650,000. The archi-
lecture is combination of the Ionic
and Corinthian. and is we'll calculated
to harmonZe with the use for which the
structure was erected. There are four
great entrances to the building, which
are magnificent in their designs. The
interior decorations are Of subdued
nature, in order to lessen the intensity
of the light, which otherwise would be
so fearful as to blind the eyes of visitors.
This building will have the distinction
of being the first devoted entirely to the
display of electricity at any of the great
eXpOSitiOnS.

FORESTRY BUILDING.
Columns of Tree Trunks in the
Natural State.

Natural state.
Dashed from end to end with spray
from Lake Michigan, and surrounded
on all sides by waste of sand and mud,
there was an appearance of sturdiness
about the Forestry building this after
noon that charmed one into half forget
fulness of the dismal environment. The
fact that the hundreds of columns in the
structure are big trees in natural
state, and that the massive Shlngled
walls are designedly innocent OF paint,
give it a uniqueneSs all its own. Unlike
the transient staff and the delicate
lghtness of the other buildings, the
Forestry showed practically no effects
of the fierce storms OF the winter. and,
Notwithstanding an unpicturesque
background of freight cars, presented a
good front, seeming to tell OF well-ar-
ranged exhibits within and everything
we'll i'm hand. This impression was
somewhat dispelled when the outer col
onnade was gained and the long
stretches of walk found covered with a
litter of boxes, shavings, excelsior and
whatnot.
Men with WheelbarrOws full of rub
bish rapidly passed outward through
the doors, and then glimpses of corps
of sweepers inside were reassuriug, but
hope sank again when full view of
the interior of the building was OBJ
tanned. Scarcely more than a dozen
booths were even approaching compile
ton, while almost wherever the eye
rested could be seen exhibits still un-
packed in boxes, canvas, wrapping pa
per and all sorts Of covering. In many
instances only the platforms upon
which exhibits were to stand were in
sight, while in several places there was
nothing but staring black bound
ary line on the vacant floor en-
closing only the name of a state
or some individual exhibitor. With all
these drawbacks, however, the spectacle
was one worth many miles journey to
see. Mofe huge cross sections and logs
of different varieties. more specimens
of branches and leaves and blossoms,
more polished brilliant colored slabs
