the harmony of the landscape and the
| architecture, giving the combination or
| park effect with solid buildings. All Of
| the visitors We're much gratified at the
| progress Of the exposition buildings,
| which are very near completion. The
| New York commissioners intend to give
a large part of their appropriation to
an exhibit of colonial relics. 1t is pro-
posed to devote much of their efforts
| to induce manufacturers of the state of
! New York to make large exhibits.
| At a. recent Fourth of July celebra-
ton on Prince Edward Island, Canada,
| Mr.. b. w. Wrenu, the passenger traffic
manager of the Plant system of rail-
roads and steamship lines, made a
| speech about the exposition. Reports
| from Canada indicate that great IN

| Among the special excursions coming
to Atlanta during the progress of the
| Cotton States and International exposi-
| ton will be that of the Albany, n. T.,
Burgess corps and cher honorary
members. This is one Of the Oldest or
| ganizations in New York state, and 1t
is their custom every year to make an
| excursion through some section OF the
| country This year they will visit At
| lanta and take in the sights at the
| Cotton States and International exposi-
| ton.
| The work of construction at the Cot
| ton States and International exposi-
| ton is rapidly approaching completion.
| Several of the buildings have been
| completed and accepted by the exposi-
| ton management from the contractors
| The work of installation in the Elec-
| trical building has already been begun,
| and the Machinery building will be
ready for the exhibitors next week. The
1 parking is almost finished, and the
ground and buildings are beginning to
resemble the completed fair. The wa
/ ter from the city water works was turn
1 ed into the lakes during the past week.
/ During the past ten days since the
4 organization Of the department of pub
/ lie comfort Of the Cotton States and
Internatio Exposition, with Mr.Alex.
w. Smith as chief, arrangements have
| been closed for sixteen hundred new
rooms for the accommodation of visit
ors to the exposition. These rooms are
/ all located in new hotels to be con-
structed, or annexes to the present
hotels. They will range from ordinary
exposition hotel quarters to annexes to
such first class hotels as the Aragon
and the Markham, where the very best
facilities can be had. IN addition to
this 1000 rooms have been engaged by
party. who will put them in thorough
order for exposition visitors.
The department Of electricity has
received the first shipment of machin-
cry for installation. 1t consists of the
General Electric company's alternator
of $50 kilowatt capacity for incandes-
cent arc lighting and power. 1t weighs
$4,000 pounds.
This week work will be begun on
the wiring for electric lights, both ex-
ternal and internal. Orders have been
placed with the General Electric and
Westinghouse companies for all the
incandescent lamps and fixtures, and
with the Safety Insulated Wire and

underground cables. The service over
this cable will be one of the heaviest
ever required. 1t will have to carry a
current of about 125-light arc circuit
with $4,000 volts between terminals
The General Electric company of
Schenectady, N. Y, is showing It's usual
enterprise by being the first on hand
with material for its exhibit. A large
shipment of apparatus has already ar
rived from the shops of this company
for it's exhibit in the service plant and
in the Electricity building.
Other exhibitors in the electrical line
would do we'll to follow the example OF
this company, and make early ship
ments, so as to have everything in read
|, mess when the exposition opens.
Too much praise cannot be accorded
the General Electric company for Its
, promptness in all these matters. 1t is
the largest company In the country, in
it's line, and the first to take advant-
age of all opportunities for extending
it's business.
The work of the Electric fountain ie
progressing rapidly. All the timber
work will be completed in few days
A sensation is in store for the public
in this electric fountain, as it will sure
ly surpass anything of the kind ever
shown, or constructed, heretofore
