EXPOSITION NOTES

The brevity Of Exposition Items this
week must not be attributed to the be-
lief In the postponement Of the great
event. but to 4 press Of other matter
during the season of conventions, as
sociations. etc. Should the Louisiana
Purchase Exposition be postponed we
should not let our interest lag, but
should, instead. rejoice because it will
give us ample time to prepare .
worthy exhibit, and set the old State
Alright before the world.
II Is now certain that the exhibits in
all the departments will break all for
mer Exposition records. and present.
as q whole. the most memorable and
inspiring school Of progress ever in
stituted for the education of mankind.
The chiefs OF these departments have
had responsible connection with the
Worlds Fairs Of the last twenty years.
and are all eiated with the superior op-
portuni les now within their grasp.
The world has made startling progress
Paris Exposition Some Of its most
wonderful discoveries and far-reachins
inventions will be exhibited for the
first time at the Louisiana Purchase
Exposition. among them new motor
engines that promise to revolutionize
transportation by land and water. and
working power in both field and fac
tory. The Chief OF the Fine Art De-
partment. Prof Halsey C. Ives. who
held the same position At the Chicago
Worlds Fair. declares. after q full sur
vey OF the resources at his command.
that the Fine Art Department at the
ST Louis Worlds Fair will be far su-
perior to the one At Chicago. The offer
Of prizes for dirigible balloons and
aerodromes. or flying machines. has
awakened keen interest among inven-
tors. scientists and aero-ciubs all over
the world in the great aerial contests.
Il is reported that Sir Hiram Maxim
will spent 3i0o. 600 in constructing an
asrodome to win one Of these prizes.
NJ. Santon-Dumout will devote a great
deal OF time to preparation for winning
the dirigible balloon prize Both these
gentlemen are expected TO visit St
