got down to the depot A. Red Cloud,
Tuesday afternoon, just in time to see
the smoke of No. "a as it pulled out

OMAHA, Dec. 4.-(Special Core
spondence to The Herald.) Six months
hence the Transmississippi and Inter-
national exposition will be opened to the
world. June 1, 1898, is the day set for the
Inauguration. The gates will close Nov.
lst. Arrangements are already far ad-
vanced, plans having been definitely
adopted, and the work of construction
is being vigorously performed in all de-
partments. Much has been accom-
plished since the constructive work was
commenced few months ago, and the
highest achievement will soon be re-
allied in the completed architecture. The
harmony Of design attained through
artistic grouping of the buildings is pro-
nounced. The plans have been arranged
on an elaborate scale of architecture for
all the principal buildings.

the exposition work to completion.
The arena the architects have chosen
for display of the highest artistic
effect is pitched in the great rectangle
locally known as the Kountze tract
The main buildings are ranged along
either side of the basin. At the west
end stands the Government building,
1lanked by imposing colonnades, which
converge toward the west. The Arch of
States, the main entrance, is on the
south line of Twentieth street. This arch.
one of the most noticeable in the group of
structures, is decorated with a frieze
composed of the arms of the Trans

mounted by sculpture figures bearing

On the sites selected for the Fine Arts

work on the foundations has been COM

attend the erection of the United States

In q Years Reading

Washington Star: GLOW many vol
umes can a man read in the course of a
year?' was the question recently put to
a gentleman whose time Is largely en-
ployed as q book reviewer on one OF the
leading magazines.
Well" said the gentleman, pointing
to row of books, there is q collective
edition of the English poets. The work
only comes down to Cowper who died
in 1900, but it comprises twenty-one vol
| umeS royal Svo, double columns, small
type. Each volume averages 700 pages
This gives total of IA, 200 pages, or 90,
400 columns. Now it takes-I have
made the experiment-four minutes to
read column OF such matter with fair
attention. Here, then, is good years
work in reading over, only once, care
fully. selection from the English poets
"The amount of reading, however
which student can get through in q
given time hardly admits of being meas
ured. The rate of reading varies with
the interest one takes in the subject
matter of the book. Still, it will be
found pretty accurate to make a calcu-
lation like this: Suppose man to be
able to read eight hours a day. No one
can really give MS receptive or critical
attention to printed matter for eight
hours regularly every day. But take
eight hours as the outside possibility
Thirteen pages Svo is an average hours
read, taking one book with another
This would make 240 pages per day, 1850
per week and 1890 pages in the year.
Taking the average thickness of an Svo
volume as 400 pages only, the quantity
of reading matter which an intelligent
student can get over in a year is no more
than an amount equal to about 220 vol
umes Svo. OF course, this is merely a
mechanical computation. But it may
be interesting to know that the merely
mechanical limit of study is some 22O
volumes SVo per annum."
