silver palace. This palace is TO be one of
the imposing features of the exposition, and
the central figure in portion of the ground
is to be called E,ldorado. The building is to
be 400 feet square, surmounted with mann
moth ornamental towers, and the entire
structure will be covered with rolled silver.
The silver to be used in its external cover
ing will be contributed by the miners of the
great West. over 10000 square feet of ex-
ternal surface will be covered by the
precious metal. The silver palace will be
used entirely for the display of the mineral
products and progress of the West. The
amount of pure silver to be used in covering
the walls and dome of this mammoth build
ing has not been definitely estimated. 1t
will largely depend upon the thinness of the
sheets of pure metal that can be used for
this purpose.
