THE PAN=AMERECAN EXPOSITION.
E. E. WEBSTER

The editor Of this paper visit
ed the Pan-American exposition at
Buffalo, n. Y, recently and will
give a short description of the
great exposition for the benefit of
many readers Of the MONITOR who
failed to attend it.
It may be we'll to first give a
short sketch Of the history of the
fair, the irst plans OF which were
made FIVE years age. The origina
tors continued to agitate the ques-
ton and succeeded in impressing it
upon the people CT New York that it
would be most fitting manner to
celebrate the close Of the old and be
ginning of the new century with
magnificent exhibition in which the
people Of the western world might
show examples of the wonderful prog
ress they have made during the past
one hundred years. The first legal
steps were taken in June OF 1897, when
the Pan-American Exposition Com
pany was incorporated under the laws
Of the state Of New York. The com
pany took up the work in earnest but
the many obstacles in their way
obliged them to put it eff from time to
time until the close Of the Spanish
American war when it was taken hold
OF with renewed vigor and pushed to
a successful finish
The exposition grounds are situated
in the northern part Of the city Of
Buffalo, about five miles from the
heart of the city. It covers $50 acres,
133 of which is improved park lands
and lakes. Those who enter the
grounds by the steam cars arrive at
the railway terminal at the north en-
trance, which is one of the best points
from which to enter the grounds. In
ent eIing this way one passes through
the propylon, or monumental en-
trance, which was planned to shut out
the noise and view of the passing trains
from those on the grounds. This has

Better Mail Service.

A recent issue of the Express and
Standard contains an article advoca-
ting a better mail service between
Richford and Newport. It shows that
the service between the two towns is
very poor and that there is no dis
patching service whatever for north
ern Vermont by way of Richford.
The local service between the inter-
mediate towns is also very poor. A
registered letter mailed at the New
port post Office for Newport Center
would not reach its destination until
the following day. The letter would
first be sent south from Newport and
then remailed in a closed pouch on
the north train. This pouch would
then lay over at the Newport station
for several hours before being des-
patched, and in this way it fails to re-
ceive the care which should be given
registered mail. The proposed remedy
for this is to establish q railway post
Office st both ends of the route. AS
the trains are now running, a double
daily service could be given which
would be Of great benefit to the peo-
pie Of Newport, Richford and the in
tervening towns. In addition to this
it would also be welcomed by the
towns along this section of the B. &
NJ. road, where mail from Richford
is very tardy in reaching. The towns
below Richford along the Central Yer
mont route would also be greatly ac-
commodated in receiving mail from
the north part of the state much
earlier than heretofore. The project
is good one and should be taken up
ny the people and agitatedIsuntil "a
better service is secured 3Ia

| two entrances, connected by colon
made which curves to the north, and is
a magnificent architectural feature.
It is five hundred feet in length and
the gateways are broad arches fifty
four feet high and thirty six feet W ide.
Two high towers surmount the arches
on either side, and above the tall
Ionic columns forming the colonnade
is a pergola, made more beautiful by
the green foliage of growing vines.
This marks the northern boundary of
the plaza, beautiful portion of the
grounds, which is surrounded by
sunken gardens full of blooming flow
ers. From this can be seen on the
east large restaurants with passages
leading to the Midway, and on the
west is the Stadium, which will seat
Il, ZOO people and contains quarter
mile track with ample space for all
the athletic sports. The arrangement
is that of a large amphitheatre, the
architecture being very appropriate.
On either side of the plaza can be seen
which we will describe later. In the
center Of the plaza short distance
from the north entrance looms up the
great electric tower, which reaches a
height of $50 feet. This tower stands
in a large basin in which beautiful
fountain and electrical effects are
produced and the illumination of the
tower far surpasses anything of the
kind ever shown before. The main
body of the tower is Of steel frame
work and is 7715 feet in diameter;
from this extend the colonnades with
an extreme width Of 255 feet. From
the surface of the water to the top OF
the colonnades is 110 feet. The main
shaft terminates at a height Of 252
feet, which point may be reached by
elevators and from which a splendid
view of the surrounding country may
be obtained. The tower looms above
this point in the form of a circular
colonnade and spiral staircase with
in leads to the cupoia, above which
stands the figure of the Goddess OF
Light. In this cupola is a powerful
searchlight with a thirty inch projec-
tor, the light of which may be seen
beautiful statuary flank each Of the
four sides Of the base, and in the
southern face of the tower is mag
niicent escutcheon representing the
arms and seal Of the United States.
The water effect IN the basin is very
beautiful. From an opening seventy
feet above the basin the water emp
ties out at speed Of ,0OO gallons
per minute, and by the use of defee
tor this is made to form great water
screen. On each side of the base are
groups of water jets throwing water
about fifty feet IN the air. In the
evening these streams Of water are
lighted up with small searchlights and
at that time are especially beautiful.
To be fully appreciated it should
be seen both daytime and evening.
When seen in the evening the cleo
trical display is something wOnd erful.
The tower is lighted by means OF over !
forty thousand incand escent lamps !
which are SO arranged as to give the !
best possible effect. This tower can |
be seen above ali the other buildings /
On the grounds and the architects in !
the other buildings appar-
emily intended to make their general |
height symmetrical with regard to

The remainder of the journey was
com paratively uneventful. Several
musical and literary entertainments
| and dances were held. A mock trial
was held one evening, it being
breach of promise case, Annie Rooney
VS.. E. E. Schneider. This case was
well argued by four bona 1ide lawyers
who have decided to try their fortunes
with the corps Of teachers in the Phil
ippires. On Sundays Capt. Buford
read the ritual services of the Episco-
pal church. A double male quartette,
in which there was one Vermonter,
led the singing. Praise and song SER
vices were held almost every day.
On August II meeting was called for
the purpose of considering the advis-
ability of forming a stock company
to buy land and timb in the Philip
pines. On the following day the fol-
lowing notice appeared: "PhilippIne
Monopoly Company! This company
proposes to buy everything il sight
in the islands. Enor nous profits GER
tain. Teachers let in on the ground
floor. Apply to Thos. Biowhard,
Sec"
A fake report that transport going
to San Francisco would be met to take
on mail caused some to sit up nearly
all one night to be sure to get their
letters mailed. Some also got up in
the middle of another night to see an
alleged active volcano which did not
materialize. Thursday, Aug. s, was
lost as we crossed the 180th meridian
on the 7th. On Friday, Aug. 8, ''Nep-
tune came aboard.n All sailors who
had never crossed the line were per-
mitted ''to see Neptune," An enor-
nous tank of water was arranged on
the spar deck and Neptune, armed
with a trident and accompanied by
several attendants dressed in fantastic
costumes, read his proclamation as
serting his title as master of the seas
The victim was then given coat of
soap and blueing, shaved with an
enormous wooden razor, and pitched
head over heels into the water. 1t is
probable that all the men teachers
would have been initiated had not
some thoughtful pedagogue cut the
canvass and allowed the water to un
out.
Schools of flying fish and porpoises
were the only "denizens aquatic" that
came our way. The former were six
or eight inches long and just skinned
the surface; the latter, about three
feet and also came to the surface fre
quently and would easily swim along
even with the boat. We came IL
sight of land on entering the San Bar
nadino straits, Aug. 20, when the sea
was somewhat rough. Most Of the
way, however, it was as smooth as
Crystal Lake. We arrived at Manila
Bay, Wednesday, Aug. 21, at three
O'Clock. The best time we made was
294 miles on Aug. p. The distance
from Honolulu to Manila by the
southern course that We followed is
4S16 miles

unabated at many coast points, Over
the Welsh lowlands, the torrential rains
are increasing, causing disastrous
floods. Reports of wrecks and casualties
continue to flow in. The death list made

prevents the identification of the craft.
Tive vessels in distress were sighted last
evening off DungenesS but the weather
was so severe that the. Iifeboat was un-
able to put out to their assistance This
morning one of them sank The other,
a steamer, reached West Bay where a
tug is now standing by her.
The revenue cutter Active has been
wrecked in the Firth of Forth. Twenty
