sTocKHoLM's COMING SHOW.
Something About the Exhibition to
BE Given Next Summer.

Some hing About the Exhibition to
Be Given Next Summer.
The year 1897 will be noteworthy in
the history of the Scandinavian north.
Two great occurrences will then direct
the eyes of the whole north toward
Stocl1holm-namely, the great Scandi-
navian-Russian- exhibition and the 25
years jubilee of King Oscar. In Stock
holm's Bots de Bologne, quite near this
wondrously beautiful city, are the ex-
hioitiOn grounds, on a narrow point OF
land, on both sides surrounded by the
blue waters OF the Baltic and extending
toward the newest and most elegant
part. of Stockholm. At first only an
exclusively Scandinavian exhibition
was intended, but as Russia and the
archduchy of Finland have now official
ly announced their intention to par
take both in the art industrial and the
national industrial sections the eXhi-
bition has assumed the character of an
exhibition of nearly the whole of the
north.
Thus in the great industrial hall the
Swedish, Norwegian, Danish and Rus
sian exhibitors Will be seen side by side.
This hall, which has a floor surfaces
of 10000 square meters, is the greatest
wooden building that has ever been con-
structed. Its great cupola rises to d
height of about 100 meters and is sur
rounded by four minarets, containing
prospect bridges, from which a fine
view is to be had of the exhibition
grounds and Stockholm, with its en-
virOns, so renowned for their beauty.
with their sinuous bays and inlets and
wood-cOvered is!ets. Another of the
principal buildings of the exhibition is
the Northern museum, with its pro-
visional addition, destined for the cul-
tural exhibit. On the shore of Dur
gardsbrunnsviken, with more than the
half of it built out over the water, lies
the Swedish and Danish fishery hall,
n most original building, designed by
Eugen Thorburn. Norway, with it's
enormous fisheries, will build it's own
fishery hall. Great viaducts lead to the
other parts of the exhibition grounds.
Here another view opens before the
eyes of the visitor, the beautiful piano.

and its charming environs.
The principal buildings of this sec
ton of the grounds are the machinery
hail.. giant building of iron and glass,
having q floor surface of 10000 square
meters, and the great art hall. The art
exhibit will be the clou of the eXhibi-
ton. Owing to the interest shown for
this exhibition by its president, the
eminent artist, his royal highness
Prince Eugen, the youngest son Of King
Oscar, this exhibit Will be international
and contain works by most of the IA
