is the finest and most comprehensive ever
seen at an international exposition. For
the first time Germany is seen at her best,
and for the first time England and all OF
her colonies are represented. The showing
made by Australia, India, Canada and
Ceylon and other British dependencies af-
ford the thoughtful visitor fine object
lesson in the magnificence and power OF
that empire on which the sun never sets.
The German building is by long odds
the most picturesque Of the foreign struc-
lures. In it are blended, tremendously,
many types of German and Prussian arch
itecture. It's principal suggestion is that
of a splendid town hall of hundred years
ago. but it makes one think also of
-nadiaaval castles. cottages and cathedrals.
It Is gorgeously colored and decorated, and
the lover of architecture and exterior or
namentation will be glad to look at it by
the hour. Within Is most interesting

and educational publications and ap-

Great Britain's Victoria mousse, whlcn
occupies a conspicuous position on the
lake front near Uncle Sans battleship, is
somewhat disappointing in its exterior,
but within it is rich and delightful The
aim was to show a type of the fine old
English half-timber houses of the sixteenth
century, of which so many good examples
are still extant. Great care has been be-
slowed on the interior decorations. The
library is a fine specimen of work in Eng
] lish oak, and there all the principal Eng
| lish journals are kept on file for the con

WORLDS FAIR, June 3. [Special.l -
A score of foreign nations have erected
buildings of their own ON the exposition
grounds. If it be assumed these nations
have in these structures given us samples
of their best products in architecture and
decorations, then the conclusion is irresist-
able that American architecture is ut
least the equal of any in the world. The
twenty foreign buildings, grouped pretty
well together, do not present an appear
ance that is as imposing or as beautiful as
that Of the buildings erected by the Amer
lean states and territories, near by. 1t is
gratifying to note, moreover, that while
there are distinctive types of architecture
in the foreign buildings there are also dis
tinctive types in the buildings erected by
the states of the American union. In
character the structures of Massachusetts,
and Pennsylvania are as striking as those
of Germany and Spain. In beauty the
New York building is superior to any
thing which our friends from across the
sea have to show here. Moreover, the
handsomest Of all the foreign buildings,
and that not quite finished as yet, is the
one erected by Brazil, the newest of the
great republics of the western world.
Visitors to the fair will find the north
ern section of the grounds very pleasing
to their eyes. They will take great de-
light in walking among the foreign build
ings, which have the prettiest part of the
grounds. They have the waters of Lake
Michigan on the east, and on the curving,
shelving shore Of this inland ocean the
waves are continually rolling. To the
south and southwest are the inlet and la
COON, and to the west and northwest the
Art palace and the buildings erected by
the states. Being the guests of the occa-
sion the foreigners were given this choice
location, and the grounds between their
buildings have been beautified by grass,
flowers, shade trees, shrubbery and leafy
walks.
The twenty nations or colonies which
have buildings here are: France, Ger
many, Spain, Great Britain, Australia,
Sweden, Brazil, Japan, Costa RIGA, Co
lombia, Guatemala, Turkey, Ceylon,
Canada, Hayti, Venezuela, Nicaragua,
New South Wales and East India. Russia
had expected to build a magnificent and
characteristic structure on the lake shore,
and the logs for the foundation had been
cut in Siberia, but delays caused by ice in
the bays and northern waters caused
abandonment of the plan.
Many nations not represented by special
buildings have what are really their own
buildings in the great Manufactures pal
ace, in the mines department or elsewhere.
