furniture. artificial limbs, manufactured
products, furniture, clothing, machines,
etc. since tho Worlds Fair, was very
marked. Many beautiful articles in the
way al expensive old and new laces,
painted china and vases were seen, be-
sides the beautiful Tiffany diamond,
gold and silver ware, and rich new com.
bination glass for vases, etc, which
much resembles leased glass. Among
the jewels was string OF pearls valued
at Sl40,O which WAS bought by a
Buffalo lady and Tiffany's famous
diamond In the center OF this
building was the Tiffany Fountain,
very natural looking fountain whose
waters were tinted by four different
colored lamps from above. In the
center OF the fountain underneath the
top spray, we're several electric lights,
the heat from which caused steam to
arise lending beautiful effect t. the
whole.
Being much interested IN machinery
and mines We spent considerable time il
the Machinery and transportation
building and Mining building. or general
interest were the automobiles and
motorcycles.
The Agricultural building stood TO the
right Of the electric tower. Many 81 the
states had fine exhibits, but particularly
can be mentioned Michigaus fruit and
vegetables In the gallery, New York
had honey exhibit where one could
watch the bees fly in and out q the
building at their task and examine the
hives.
OF the state buildings, Michigan, tho
not the grandest, was the most home
like.
Cuba had one Of the smaller buildings
on the ground On the first floor were
grains, fruits, sponges, some articles Of
native dress, minerals and weapons. A
Cuban guard explained queer way the
Cuhans had some few years ago OF drlv-
ing three horses, and odd looking car
riages, wearing high ll-shaped boots and
shoes 10 match, and how they had dis
carded all such for American every
thing" as he termed it. He also stated
that many Cubans coming TO Buffalo
were so taken up with American ways
that they could not be induced 10 re-
turn to their native land. The dainty
lace, embroidery and drawn work done
by the Cuban ladies OF wealth and posi-
ton far excelled much seen in the Manu-
facturers' building. Going from the out.
side OF the building to the End floor, one
came to a room about 20x30 feet filed
with school exhibits. This was the
finest in many respects that we had
ever seen. Their maps OF various sizes
we're beautifully colored, neatly sec
toned, and free from erasures. OF
course their maps OF Cuba excelled those
OF the United States. The island sm-
broidered, solid, in colors to section IL,
upon silk, wool and linen showed much
careful instruction. The American flag
with that OF Cuba was beautifully and
accurately embroidered on velvet by
school children OF IRON IL TO 10,
while the handkercbiefs, pin cushions,
doilies, sofa pillows and shawls all done
in the public schools we're simply sur.
prising. Some articles OF clothing were
also exhibited to show periectness OF
stitch. Their writing was vertical, and
decidedly plain. Among their school
books we noticed Frye's Geography and
the Stepping Stone series in Spanish
The Cuban board met every afternoon
and would talk with American teachers
OF good qualifications regarding their
coming TO Cuba AS the Cubans insist on
having some American teachers.
On the Midway, many attractions
which are very interesting as well as
can be seen, as Darkness and
Dawn representing Dante's Inferno, A
Trip TO the Moon, Johnstown Flood,
Infant Incubator. Bostock's Animals.
Chiquita, the little Cuban doll lady, and
the people OF the Philippines and
African villages. on these, / would say,
one is impressed with the rightly OF the
muscles and their erect posture seeing
that their bodies are unsupported and
they live such lazy life. Their WAYS
we're coarse. Their music bad periec,
time and rhythm even tho harmony
was lacking. IL is here, while one is up
in the Arrio.cyle, that the best view OF
the lair, the electric tower, may be seen.
