The year 1898 was, as aforesaid, indeed
time of terror. The Indians, victorious
over Harmer and st. Clair, threatened
the whole western frontier. Citizen &C.
net had been in the country just long
enough not to be found out and to set the
partisans of France wild with enthusi-
asm. In August came the yellow fever.
In two months one-eighth of the popula-
ton of Philadelphia had died, and over
half the others had fed to the mountains.
Alexander Hamilton was Frustrated by
it, but recovered, and all the cabinet la
dies fled. Mrs. Washington and family
went to Mount Vernon, and on Sept. 9,
the president followed.
1t is little wonder, therefore, that the
slow moving journalists of those days
gave but scanty accounts OF the lmpor-
tant ceremonies of Sept. 18. The Column

25th and the Maryland Gazette of An

In the line, says The Mirror, were the
surveying corps Of the city of Washing

Georgetown, the Virginia artillery, the
commissioners of the city of Washing
ton, the stonemasons, woodchoppers,
etc, at work on the site and vast array
of Masons with all the insignia of the
order, such as the Bible, wands, trunch-
cons, swords, etc. There were also a few
church wardens, vestrymen and other
officials of neighboring churches. After
the usual Masonic ceremonies the grand
marshal delivered to the commissioners

Washington large silver plate, which
he deposited in the recess prepared in

the same with other refreshments and
various recreations." The mallet with
which Washington gave the official
stroke is still presersed by his lodge as a
precious memento.
In 1895 active work on both the or.
iginal wings was pushed rapidly, and i'll
1900 the present supreme court room
and law library room were ready for
senate and house respectively. In 1903
active work was resumed, and in 1911
both the old wings were completed.
Plans for the connecting section and
dome were under discussion when the
war came, and in 1914 the British got
in their work The walls and much OF
the finest woodwork escaped the fire
they kindled, and all the sandstone and
freestone at all affected was replaced by
Potomac marble. Still the capitol was
an odd looking affair, embling, says
Washington Irving, who saw it in this
stage, two imitation Greek temples with
very attenuated connection. The city
was contemptuously compared by New
Workers to a "daddy long legs sprawled
all over the mass of Potomac mud"
March "A, 1918, Charles Bulfnch of
Boston laid the foundation of the center
building and served as architect till 1880,
completing rotunda and DOME And
this was the capitol of the United States
for about 80 years. Earlyin 1850 Jefferson
Davis brought forward proposition to
build the present north and south wings,
and at his request Robert Mills, artist
and architect, drafted plan which met
with unanimous and enthusiastic APP
prevail. Congress agreed to the plan,
Thomas U.fWalter of Philadelphia was
appointed architect, and on July 4, 1851,
President Fillmore laid the cornerstone
Of the new south wing, Daniel Webster
was orator of the day, spoke two hours
and according to the journals OF the
time ''made the greatest effort OF his
life"
Work on the great dome went for
ward without ceasing through the war,
and on Dec. 2, 1868, Crawford's colossal
statue of Freedom was placed on the
summit and saluted by 4s5 guns fired
from the forts around Washington. In
1854 the dome and eastern portico of the
north wing were completed. In 1866
the stone work Of the capitol was pro.
nounced done, and soon Brumidi and his
brother artists had completed their mag
nifcent designs. The total cost Of the
capitol is $14, 500, 900, including the ter
faces. which cost $4,000 Additional
works of art have made the total about
5000, 900. AS the capitol has grown
and been beautifed even so has the
city. But that calls for separate story.

There are two kinds Of state build
ings on the exposition grounds; those
which combine the purpose of exhibits,
ranging al; the way from agriculture
to fine arts, and those intended to be
distinctively club houses To the lat
ter class belong the state buildings of
Ohio and Indiana.
The Ohio state building is situated
lust northwest of the Fine Art gallery,
its main entrance facing the lagoon
which circles round the pier at the Art
gallery. winding in front of the Ohio
building and washing the shore near
the Illinois state building. 1t is an
artistic structure, and the visitor who
stands upon the bank of the lagoon
and views 1t from that point of van
tage ground, with the impressive stat
ne of Ohios noble sons in the fore
ground. the sweeping veranda just be-
hind with its gracefully-rounded Doric
pillars, the windows hung with soft
white Swiss ard silken materials, and
the whole presenting harmonious,
palace-like picture before his eye, can
have no soul for art or beauty if he
cannot see it there.
The statue OF Ohio in front Of the
building is a worthy tribute to her
noble sons and the mothers of a
brave race. Growing the monument
is the figure of woman cast in bronze,
typifying the mother of Ohio, and just
below on lower granite base are six
bronze figures representing Garfield,
Sherman, Sheridan. Hayes, Scranton
and Chase. The architecture of the
building is the style of the Italian
renaissance. The dimensions are 100x
so feet, exclusive of bay windows,
porticoes and terraces, and its two
stories are about IS feet high. The
semi-circular portico has eight Ionic
columns the full height of the build
ing, surmounted by an open bal
ustrade and rooted with red tile.
The building is constructed of wood
and covered with staff, freproof
composition resembling stone. The
interior of the building has the kind
of beauty that grows upon the vision
of the observer.
The loggia leading into the central
reception hall has been devoted to the
