| have been delightful witness of
the marvellous electrical display for sew
eral evenings. Having in mind to drop
you line about it ] came across the
enclosed clipping, which expresses what
want to say much better than possi-
bly, could:
| GAS the Exposition stands by day,
opalescent IN color, harmonious in archi-
lecture, superb in its ensemble, the sight
wins enthusiasm from all beholders.
Yet no one shonld say he has seen the
Pan American Exposition until he has
experienced the wonderful sensation
which begins at dusk with the budding
of auroral lights on all its walls. These
tiny lights, growing to points of red,
soon prick out in dotted pattern the
shapes of structures which but a mo-
ment before appeared to be things of
substance standing out in the full reality
of daylight; now they are mere shadows
slipping away into the night. In strong
er glow of the electricity there is no
longer rainbow city; like magic its
colors and even it's walls have vanished.
Against the deep blue of the sky rises
in its place city of jewelled domes and
pinnacles, with walls of flame, and
luminous tower bearing aloft the God
dess of Light who dominates the fairy
like scene. AS the moment for illumi-
nation approaches it is custom for the
bands to play soft music. The lights
start. the people rise from the seats on
which they had been waiting, and as
day turns to light, as earth changes in
to paradise, the crowds massed IN Es-
planade or Court Of Fountains, unable
to contain themselves, break into ap-
plause."
The West Point cadets, $50 in number
have established their camp at the ex-
position grounds. In the contingent will
be the corps of cadets, a mounted bat
terry, troop of cavalry and a pack
train with wagons and mules.

adiectives," he said.
