A recent incident related in Russian
correspondence indicates that the hard
ships of Siberian exiles are by no means
over when their sentences expire. A
little girl of ten recently appeared be-
fore the governor Of Yaroslnv, NJ.
Friede. with petition In her hand ask
ing help for her starving self alone.
Her father. it was learned, had been an
official, and for soma offense or sus-
picion of offense was sent to Siberia.
When his term expired he was told to
get home as best he might His wife
was i'll and he was penniless He
wheeled her in barrow all the way
from Siberia to Yaroelav, the journey
occupying many months, and the little
girl trudged on foot beside the barrow.

Yaroslav the wife was so sick they
could go no further. The father coult,
obtain no work, and was asked to sell
hts little girl into an infamous servitude
As last resort the unfortunate man
sent her to the governor. The governor
could do nothing, but the townspeople
heard of the case and a subscription
was opened for the sufferers

The total cost Of buildings Is esti-
mai ted at 81 BOO. 0oe-rather largo sum
to be expended for temporary struc-
lures, but the commissioners from the
various states have buiLded well and
wisely. and the result in each building
is matter for state and national pride.
1t was natural that Illinois should
erect the largest state building. 1t is
a noble structure. surmounted by a
graceful dome springing from the Gen.
ter of the Greek Cross which the wings
of the building form Though no more
substantial than other state buildings
most of the s2co, 900 expended has been
devoted to exterior and interior decora-
tons, and the result is an excellent i'm
itation of French mansion, though
many will see Ia it a strong resemblance
to the state capitol at Springfield.
California's building Is delight to the
eye, fashionedo after the graceful lines
of Moorish-Spanish architecture, and,
like the state, is huge IN its proportions.
There is nothing small about California,
and one-half the total appropriation was
expended for the building. Travellers
through the southwest viii see in the
building reproduction Of the old Mis-
sion church at San Diego.
Colorado's building cost So, 200, and
is a pure white structure. after the
style Of the Spanish renaissance. and is
surrounded by two tall, graceful tow
ers The exterior ornamentation is
very elaborate, while the interior-and
the same may be said of all the state
buildings-is finished in native woods,
with every accommodation for visitors
and the state worlds far commission
There is something monastic in the ap-
pearanee of the Indiana building, with
its gothic gables and grained windows.
1t is roony structure, but not so

Wisconsin, too, built for practical

though the building is adapted in every

that others viii announce an intention
Of participating in the exposition when
local prejudices are overcome and the
eyes of legislators are fully opened to
the advantages to be obtained by dis

priations from the states thus far ap-
proach 100000, of which nearly

acres in the upper end of the park were
set apart for this purpose, and now,
some FIVE months before the opening
day of the fair, there stands city of

tectural style and cost of construction

all, built after the fashion of the
French Renaissance and costing 3d.

building costing but $1,000, as white
and classic as though built OF marble
from her own native hills.
1t is hardly fair to criticisa those Of
the states not represented in the fol-
lowing list, for in most cases the fall
ure to make an appropriation lies in
unreasoning prejudice Of former legis-
latures. South Carolina, for instance,
will not be represented at the fair ex-
