RAPIDLY ASSUMINS SHAPE
Arc Lights for street Fair Placed in
Position Yesterday.

Every day witnesses many new devel-
opnents on the grounds Of the street
fair Over fifty arc lights will be hung
wherever it is possible to use them. The
most of these lights have already been
placed. There will be a wonderful illu-
mination of the grand exhibits when
these arc lights, several thousand mean
descent lights and the powerful electric
search lights are ali turned on.
The main arch on South Main has an
other artistic addition in the shape Of
two large projecting columns on each
side of the archway. The archway is
modelled after the shape of clover leaf.
On each of the arches there are two
beautifully designed alcoves Of the same
design as the main opening. In these,
and in fact all over the arch, incandes-
cent lights are to be used to beautify the
structure at night.
East Of Market on English there has
been an extension of the grounds for the
livestock exhibit. This VIII make the
extent of the grounds larger than that Of
last year.
The booths are rapidly assuming form.

One of the most original things yet fin
ished is the decoration around Dold's pa
vilion. On the eight sides are the words
"Dold," the letters being formed with
cross sections of ears Of white corn
which are fastened on with metal tacks.
These letters have a narrow border Of
sheared Kaffir corn; likewise the space
in the panels Of these sides are filed in
with Kaf1r corn. The background is of
white enamel cloth. The material used
is the most common, but the combina-
ton is a very beautiful effect
The fruit and vegetable exhibit will be
large and attractive. On both sides Of
the north end Of the agricultural depart
ment diminutive stairs have been built,
upon which will be displayed all manner
Of fruits. So, many and varied will be
the exhibit that it is impossible to fore
cast the grandeur of the fair.
