ROCKtNGMAMs COMMISSIONERS.
BUILDING COVERS 20 ACRES.
Mammoth Structure for the Depart
ment OF Agriculture at the
Worlds Fair

The contract for the completion Of the
agriculture building at the St Louis
Worlds Fair was let on Saturday. Feb
ruary 9S, for sj29,?iH This building is 10
Per cent larger than any other building
at the Exposition and is the largest struc-
ture erected for the reception of n sim
gle department.
1t is SOON 500 feet thus containing a
floor space of almost - acres. This
building and that to be built for hOrti-
culture will probably he the only ones
in the Exposition bearing color on the
cutter walls. The agriculture building
viii have used upon it green with points
of brighter color
Garlands, wreaths and festoons Of
fruits and flowers are to figure in the
color scheme. The architectural mem
hcrs such as the Cornices, ana the piers
between the mouldngs, are to be left
white.
The plans for this building have been
prepared under the immediate suporvis-
ion of Mr. Isaac s Taylor, director of
works of the Exposition. by Mr. T.. L..
MaSQuoraY. chief of design
The building is probably the best light
ed on the grounds. Its fronts are pract-
cally successive series of windows each
Is feet long and y feet high. These VIM
dcws are placed a feet from the floor
so as to allow the use of the wall space
inside for exhibits. Triangular monitor
windows supply sky light, while they cut
off the direct sun light, which would
quickly spoil many of the exhibits.

Lewis, cashier Of the dofunCt bank
on April ., 1901 an examination OF tho
Farmers National bank was made and
a shortage of $4,000 was discovered. OF

engaged to marry Lewis and he applied
to her for $4,000. She hesitatcd but soon
consented to furnish securities for that
amount to be pledged at the Bank of
Redemption at Boston. Lewis took tho
securities to the Bank of Redemption.
where note from Lewis to that bank for

paid the note OF Lewis TO the Bank Of

 The inspiration of lifetime! Ten minutes later he was tearing out to post letter addressed to Gordon Lov- ell, Esq. It contained z 10 note, and these few hurried words:
 Dear Boy: I trust you did not in. tend to take me at my hasty word. Allow me to break through my prin- ciples for once. Any time will do. hope I'm just. Live and let live is one of my notices you did not stay to hear."
 It was posted. Then he went back, to wipe his forehead again and to dream, dream. dream.
 It was a curious coincidence that he went on dreaming for just a month, and that the two letters should arrive by the same post. At last! One. stamped "Shand & Pascoe. Solicitors" to say that all was settled; and one from Lowell. to say that he had got the

 Naturally, he opened the former first Dear sir-we know nothing of the cir cumstances. and cannot understand to what your letter refers. Your uncle. Horace Bea mish. died intestate. For la ok of funds, apparently. the claim was abandoned some years ago. We do not advise you to re- open 1t. Yours obediently,

Bill That Interests Women.

The hundreds of club women I'm
Michigan in particular and the women
of the state in general will he inter
ested in bill which has been per-
fected by Representative Dennis and
is now in the hands of the house COM
mittee on state affairs. 1t aims TO
make 1t obligatory upon the governor
TO appoint at least one woman as a
member Of the board Of control of
each state institution of which fe-
males are inmates. On boards of
three members the bill provides that
there shall be one woman, and where
there are six members two are 10 be
women. The women who are advo-
eating this bill do so as n matter OF
justice to the nOn-voting citizens of
the state, and also because they claim
that the participation of women in the
management Of these institutions is
absolutely essential to the best inter-
eStS of the female inmates As the
law reads at present, the governor may
appoint women on these boards. but
the fact is that thus far only two
pointed, and one was displaced by a
man at the expiration of her first
term. Mrs. May s. Knaggs of Fay
City. who is a member of the board
Of guardians of the industrial home
for girls, is the only woman who has
a seat on a state board in Michigan
today. The club women Of the state
are generally back of the movement
for greater representation. and il must
be confessed that there is much force
in the claims they make i'm behalf of
the bill. 1t is argued that chief ex-
ecutiveS would be glad if the law
were mandatory instead of merely
permissive as ut present, for then they
would have ample excuse for turning
down the horde Of male applicants
for these places The women think
that If the pressure from the men
were not so great. the governors
would avail themselves of the oppor-
tunity TO give the women the repre-
Sentation they seek.
