Washington. Dec. 24-Doctor Frederick
W. True, who is in charge of the Smith
sonian and National Museum exhibit for
the coming st. Louis Exposition. reports
that 1t will be the largest exhibit since the
Chicago Worlds Fair and that it will &C.
cupy the greatest space in the Government
building. 1t is to have a central position.
surrounded by the various bureaus and divi-
sions. There will be a memorial of the
founder. James Smithson. and portraits of
the secretaries and chancellors. also the
great series of publications on which the
fame of the museum SO largely rests. and
objects and books indicating how the
Smithsonian Fund has been and is being eN-
pended in promoting research.
BIOLOGICAL EXHIBIT.
For the Buffalo Exposition the national
geological park contented itself with a dis
play of models and figures. but at st. Louis
a very large cage, 800 feet long. will be
erected. In it will be placed a thousand or
more birds of North America and the
tropics. notable for brilliant coloring, sweet
songs or peculiar form, Nothing on so

fitted with trees, swimming pools and run
ming streams, where perching birds can find
shelter and aquatic birds proper exercise.

articles selected for their special interest
to children. II is. in fact. intended to give
this the appearance of a Liliputian museum.
and it will be a matter of surprise If ii does
not attract grown people quite as much as
the little ones.
PREHISTORIC DISPLAY.
Probably the most striking contribution
from the department of geology, in charge
of the head curator. Doctor George 2. Mer-
rill. will be a restoration of the remark

1t is the idea of Professor w. w. Holmes
of the Bureau of EthnoloSy to show the aes-
thetic products of native American people,
covering the entire range of arts and manu-
features. illustrating achievements in ar
chltecture, sculpture, ceramics. fabrics and
metal work and the manifold development
shown in water craft. musical instruments,
pipes and emo objects. The public
will have placed before it n synopsis of the
so-called achievement of natives from the
far North. through the United States, Gem
trial, America and South America to Pata-
gonia.
Visitors to the Exposition will get an OPP
portunity to see the largest masses known
to have fallen from the sky. The greatest
of these is a meteorite twenty feet long
