building large enough for the purpose,
to bring together here at the worlds
fair in 1908 great collection of rel
les and historical objects connected
with the life of various religious de-
nominations represented and exhibit

1t is announced by the worlds fair
management that there will be no gen.

will be cream or ivory white in their
exteriors and collonades. CoIor will
be used in those portions of the build
ings thrown into the shadow, such as
the interior walls of loggias, for con-
siderable number of which the plans
provide. On these interior walls along
which the ceiling of the collonades
casts shadow there will be mural
paintings and other color effects.

with complaints of general trade dull
ness. Everyone in England is de-

broker. His bride was Mrs. Ethel Rails,
just divorced from George Rails.
In 80 days there have been 20 elope-

realized. Last evening the booths were
pretty well sold out and dismantled be
