a searchlight with a 30-inch protector,

ton of this tower.
There are more than thirty-three
acres of beautiful courts. There are III
all the courts large pools of water INTO
which hundreds of fountains Will throw
their sparkling streams. Never befofe
has such work been undertaken upon
so grand Il scale.
The united efforts of the builders OF
the Exposition have produced . harnlo-

beautiful spectacle.
In all the exhibit divisions the ran

CO HE Pan-American Exposition is
the first great public event of the
80 Twentieth Century. Its DON'T
nant purpose Is to illustrate progress
during the century just closed and lay
strong and enduring foundation for
international. commercial and social
unity in the New World. In several re-
spects the Exposition outrivals all for
mer enterprises of its character. The
most important Of these are the artistic
color decorations of the buildings, the
electrical effects, the original sculpture
the hydraulic and fountain effects the
horticultural and floral effects, and the
court settings.
The electrical display will be the most
complete ever made the nearnesS to
the Exposition grounds Of the great
plants Which have harnessed Niagara
and put its tremendous power to COM
mercial use, making this possible. A
Steel Electric Tower, an Electric Foun-
tain and the Court of Fountains furnish
opportunities for extraordinary out
door displays Of electrical wonders.
About half q million incandescent
lamps aud one hundred searchlights are
used in the illumination.
The decorative lighting Of the build
ings takes advantage of the many
handsome designs in staff and brings
them out with translucent effects or
outlined with points of light. Advant-
age is also taken of the numerous tow
ers, turrets aud domes to produce a
starry effect
Sculpture is used In the adornment
Of the Court of Fountains, the Fri
umphal Bridge, the Esplanade, the
Plaza, the Electric Tower, the Bridge
of the Three Americas, entrances to
buildings, and in many other ways,
there being upward Of 125 original
groups of statuary, by Karl Bitter and
other sculptors Of world repute. Over
500 pieces are used The plastic orna-
mentation of the buildings is very in
tricate and beautiful All the buildings
are covered with staff, which is mould
ed into thousands of beautiful and fam
ciful shapes. The display of original
sculpture is the most magnificent ever
used for decorative purposes at any eX-
position. Never before at any exposi-
ton has an effort succeeded to produce
harmonious color scheme. All of the
