South Dakota Building

W. B. Saunders, of the Worlds
Fair com mission, received notice
of the dedication of the site for
the South Dakota building, which
occurred last week, and St. Louis
papers giving account of the
proceedings, and also a descrip-
ton of the building which is to
be erected. The description is
as follows:
The South Dakota building will
occupy a site across the e from
the star roadway leading from the
ing.
trees, in One of the most prominent
and attractive localities on the
grounds.
Exclusive of the wide porches, the
building will be 7Ox4S feet. The
front of.the building and are each II
feet wide.
The first floor will have in the front
an entrance hall, parlor, office, check
room and stairway. In the rear a
I SSiplSltiNb - LIZ dho "llUlllS
room. ladies' room, toilets and stair
way. The center of the building will
be occupied by a main hall.
The hall will extend upward through
the second story of the building to an
arch of the roof and will be "a feet,
and & inches high.
The interior of the room will be
covered entirely with a decoration of
corn ppain and rpaSSpS &C tho ohipf
agricultural products of South Dakota.
1t will be brilliantly illuminated and
serve the urpOs besides the illus
tration of the great agricultural re-
sources of the State, as a place of
meeting, reception and public enter
tainment.
The decorations of this room in
this q will probably cost in
the neighborhOod of So, 600, and prove
doubtless a very unique and attractive
feature among the many attractions
of the beautiful State buildings.
On the second story, above the
parlor' and office, gentlemen's and
ladies' rooms, the space will be
occupied by rooms furnished for the
practical use that will be desired by
visitors from the State and their
guests.
The exterior of the building will be
a little different from the staff work
which is to be so much in evidence
elswhere. in that it will be constructed
of the South Dakota cement in dark
tint, with the porches, windows and
or~namentation painted SO as to re-
lieve the building of any charge Of
sOmberness.
This cement covering is durable
and permanent as stone, and Is used
on several of the public buildings in
the State. The cost of the construc-
ton of the building will be from 81 5000
to Is $500. The plumbing, electric
lighting, sewerage and gas will cost a
couple of thousand more, while the
interior decorations, including that
of the main hall, as mentioned in
grains and grasses, will approximate
81, 200.
