wide-spreading Dutch windmill above
it. The other will represent Dutch
dwelling OF medieval times.
There will be at the fair a mountain
from Pennsylvania. A mountain OF
rock and sand, with forests, and caves,
and streams of water, and lakes, and
sequestered little romantic hooks:
and then foothills, aud marshes and
prairie, aud all that sort OF thing, j1s,
as it is described in the story book.
And what is much more wonderful,
every animal that ever scratched its
back against a Pennsylvania tree,
every bird that ever winged its way
through the quiet Quaker atmosphere,
and every fish that ever disported 10
the waters of the State, will be ex>
hibited.
Just now this mountain in carload
lots is at Harrisburg awaiting trans
porta.ion to Chi ago. 1t will be
brought on in few days, aud will be
arranged either within the Pennsyl.
vania building, or outside at some
point to be designated by the fair
officials. When the mountain is com.
pleted it will be quite deceptive, ap-
pearlng much larger than it really is.
There will be forest trees upon its
sides with ample shubbery in faithful
reproduction of Pennsylvania flora.
Upon the left hand side of the &C.
clivity, one-third of the way up, will
be spring of running water, forming
pool, then OVERLOOKING and dashing
down the mountain in cascades to the
lake at the bottom. On the edges Of
the lake will DO a marsh filled with
cat tails and tall swamp grasses, while
in the background will be a thicket of
rhododendrons. Upon the surface of
the lake there will be floating water
lilies and other aquatic plant life,
while among them will be swimming
the ducks, geese, and swans of the
collection. This feature from the
Quaker State will be novel, interest.
ing and unique.
