EXPOSITION BEAUTY.
PUTTING THE RAINBOW coLoRs ON
 ONE OF BIG BUILDINGS.

Early Hints of What the Visitors
 May See of Nodded Plastic orna-
 mentation and Color Decoration at
 Pan-American Exposition.
 It is now possible to go somewhat more into detail regarding the plastic and color work upon the various build ings of the Pan-American Exposition The most advanced of the buildings is that to be devoted to machinery The staff upon the exterior of this edlfice is now nearly all in place. and the great structure is in the hands of the color artists.
 Though very large building, 800 by $50 feet, the four faeades are so bro ken by architectural features that there is nothing of monotony or sever ity. Every one who has the good for tune to visit the grounds during this advanced stage of development unhes- itatingly applauds the happy results of both the architectural and color schemes.
 In order that the reader may have a correct understanding let me first de- scribe the nodded work with which the exterior of the building is ornamented. By means of the very ingenious pro ducton known as staff, which is made out of white plaster, into which liberal quantities Of manila fiber have been mixed in order to make it tough and durable, the Exposition buildings are given the appearance of solidity and massiveness as well as the beauty of richly carved stone. But, since the material is not stone, the idea of add ing color to the work has been suggest ed. How to apply the color so that it would heighten the beauty of the work has taxed the ingenuity of the most famous mural painter of the world, Mir Charles Y. Turner of New York.
 The very intricate character of the staff work and the vast amount of it in delicate designs offered a most for bidding task. All four of the broad facades of the building have an aread- ed effect. Every window is q deeply recessed arch, with wide soffits and castings Every entrance is composed of one or more high arches, with massive pillars at the sides and every pillar and pilaster is of very elaborate detail. Every window is grilled and finished with fidelity to the most artistic ideas of architects of the Spanish renais- sance, from which the general arehi- tectural scheme of the Exposition is derived.
 At the four corners of the great building are four towers, with open payilions. 50 feet above the ground. Above the great arched entrances on
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1900-12-09

MACHINERY AND TRANSPORTATION BUILDING the east and west sides are massive domes Two very tall towers rise above both the north and south entrances and help to complete two wonderful architectural compositions. Imagine, if you can, the delicate and beautiful character of this unique work Some one has said it reminded the observer of a skilIful confectioner's best achievements in a fancy wedding cake many times exaggerated. The compari- son is not inappropriate perhaps, for the Exposition celebrates a closer un- ion of the several Americas, and in the original white the wonderful compo- sitions of staff which crown these tow CTS possessed the apparent delicacy of one of these marvellous creations of the confectioner.
 But color has been added, and the white has disappeared. The likeness is no longer there. The brilliant colors that the Moors loved so steadfastly hundreds of years ago in Granada and Andalusia have been revived better than the originals. The majestic col umns and fancy pillars look like earv- ed ivory. The arabesques have background of brilliant shades. such as yellows. pinks and reds of varying degrees of brightness. The round domes have bands of green and other shades. The roofs are all of red tile The broad caves are upheld by sub stantial brackets that resemble rose wood carved in intricate design. The lofty towers present a radiance of blues, reds and gold. Medallions of Ericsson and other famous men who have given the world wonderful ma chinery are surrounded with a glow of color.
 Difficult or impossible as it may seem to the reader to employ brilliant colors so freely upon great building such as this without destroying it's grandeur and cheapening its appearance the problem has been magnifcently work ed out, and the effect is not merely pleasing and harmonious, but the work Is an artistic triumph that every person from far and near will delight to see. The wonderful harmony of the many colors that have been used is at once observed, and there Is no one feature of the Exposition that has aroused more popular interest than the great color scheme. With the 20 or more other big buildings, all aglow with col or and adorned with richly nodded plastic work, the effect will be pro- found surprise to those who have visit z

WEST VIRGINIA ALERT.
Governor Will Urge Appropriation
 to Have State Represented.

Governor Atkinson of West Virginia next message to the legislature a rec ommendation for an appropriation to pay the expenses of the state commis- sion having in charge the state ex- hibit for the Pan-American Exposition. West Virginia is one of the many states that are inviting capital and labor to come i'll and help develop their natural resources. With her 15,oO0 square miles of coal lands, her thou sands of acres of hard wood forests, her wonderful stores of petroleum, her iron ore deposits and her great acre. age of lands suitable for farming. stock raising and wool growing, she has much to offer in the way of ex- hibts and much to gain by bringing her resources properly before the world. It is expected that an exhibit will be made showing by maps and specimens, statistics and information of q general character what a new conner to the state may be able to do in the way of advancing the fortunes of himself and those who depend upon him. The millions of visitors to Buff falo next year will be interested in knowing what the possibilities are in all parts of the western hemisphere. The West Virginia commission is com posed of Stuart W Walker of Martins burg, president; J. C. Morrison of Charleston. secretary; K. B. Battelle of Wheeling. treasurer; James NJ. Por- ter. Jr., of New Cumberland and D. E. Smith of Parkersburg

bile are among the we'll known new and useful applications of electricity unknown at the time of the Columbian Exposition. Electricity is to be ex- tensively used in making attractive displays at night. For this purpose 8 steel tower 375 feet high has been planned which will face the Court of the Fountains. Upon this great tower and in this broad and beautiful court there will be seen at night fantastic and beautiful displays in electrical illumination. More than 100000 cleo tric lamps are to be used for this pur- pose, 1t being the intention of elee- tricians to have all the large buildings surrounding this court outlined with a fringe of brilliant electric lamps. These wonderful electrical displays are made possible by the nearness of Mia gara Falls, from which nearly all the power used for the Exposition will be drawn.

Some large business firms are planning to give ex- cursions to their employees. and in many manufactories the employees are to go in q body 10 the Ex- position. In the large shoe manufac- turing concern of Hanan & Sons of Brooklyn the employees. who have or ganized themselves into an association called the Mutual Aid society, have decided on five days excursion to the Pan-American and Niagara Falls and have engaged q special vestibuled train for the purpose. The trip will be made during independence week. and it is expected that at least 1000 persons will participate in the jour hey.

GUARDING AGAINST FIRE.
Every Precaution to He Taken at the
 Pan-Americnn Exposition.


 There are two fire houses upon the grounds of the Pan-American Exposi- ton at Buffalo. N Y, which are fully equipped with the apparatus and men necessary to fight any outbreak of fire upon the grounds.
 In addition to this there are chemical fire extinguishers in all of the build ings. These are of the same type used at the World fair at Chicago and are attached to the wall on the interior of the building. 4 cog on the bearing of the reel releases a valve which turns on the water in case of fire. It is only necessary to unreel the hose and thus turn on stream which can be di- rected upon the blaze without mo ments delay. In this way every pre- caution is to be taken to prevent the occurrence of any fire and consequent destruction of valuable property.
