Principal Features.
The perfection Of beauty aimed at
by the projectors Of the Pan-Amer~
ican exposition has been realized and
is being enjoyed by many thousands
of visitors daily. In fact, the results
exceed the highest expectations. All
who see the Rainbow City under the
rays of the sun or bathed in incandes-
cent loveliness are surprised and
pleased beyond measure. says the ex-
position bulletin.
Although not SO large as Some other
expositions, the Pan-American out
rivals all previous ones in many Inn
portant particulars. Among these
are the artistic color decorations OF
the buildings, the grand electrical ef-
4ects. the beautiful original sculpture,
the wonderful hydraulic fountain ef-
fects. the splendid horticultural and
floral effects and the magnificent court
settings.
All Of these featurss in happy COM
bination illustrate the progress of
the human race during the nineteenth
century. Here nature and art tell the
story Of progress in the new world.
The visitor begins to read the story at
che entrance to the grounds. where
the medium Of forest and stream, tell
ing Of mans introduction TO the land
and presenting the scene Of his early
struggles.
The picture presented to the visitor
as he stands upon the shore of Dela-
ware park lake is enhancing and
never to be forgotten. Beyond the
shining waters bearing upon their
bosom smart craft Of various kinds,
and q splendid grove. the exposition
city seems as though etched upon the
sky. Passing over the new three-arch
bridge, which has been designated for
the purpose of the exposition as the
Bridge Of the Three Americas" and
through the grove, the visitor con-
tinues the thread Of the story Of the
rise Of man.
From there the story Is carried by
the architect, the color decorator. the
sculptor. the electrician and the land
forts-arst depicting the crude and
following with symbolixation Of the
rapid development which has char
Acterized the new world and caused the
people Of foreign lands 90 regard us
with great wonder and undisguised ad-
miration-and reaching the highest
point OF our achievements In the
splendid tower in the heart Of the
Rainbow City.
The electrical display at <his ex-
position is the most complete ever
made. and for this purpose 5000 horse
power is received over cables from the
grea, power plant q. Niagara. OPP
portunities for extraordinary outdoor
displays OF electrical wonders are fur
nished by the steel electric tower, an
electric fountain and the Court of
Fountains. In the illumination OF the
courts, fountains and buildings half
million incandescent lamps and 100
searchlights are used. The decorative
lighting Of the buildings takes advan-
tage of the many designs in stan and
brings them out with translucent ef-
fects or outlined with points Of Light.
The electrician also takes advantage
OF numerous towers, turrets and
domes TO produce 3 starry effect.
The display OF original sculpture is
the most magnificent ever used for
decorative purposes at any exposition.
The color scheme is new. Never be-
fore at an exposition has an effort
succeeded TO produce . harmonious
color scheme.
The electric tower. the centerpiece
OF the exposition. is 40 feet high. and
upon and about il II made an electrical
display surprising any ever yet at
tempted. More than 10000 lamps and
searchlight with 30-inch protector
at height of $50 feet and capable Of
casting rays for distance Of so miles.
besides 81 searchlights in the basin.
are employed in the illumination st
this point.
There are more than % acres OF
courts, and in all are large pools Of wa
ter, into which hundreds Of fountains
throw their sparkling streams. In
all the courts upon the grounds out
side the buildings is very elaborate
decorative arrangement of beautiful
lawns and gardens. In all the exhibit
divisions the Pan-American exposition
is very complete.
The exposition grounds are In the
northern part of Buffalo. They are

position is the mammoth railway sta
tion at which the different steam rail

son, rs cents for children under IL

nently close until November /.

countries Of the western hemisphere
is incalculable. 1t will bring together
all the peoples and all the exhibits of
the industries and natural resources,
and afford an opportunity for each to
see what the other has, and the re-
suit of this will be . great stimulation
