evening, heavy storm of rain and
hail visited this city. 1t only

KENTUCKY BUILDING PIANO.
One of the Works of Art of the En-
position Will be sold to the
Highest Bidder.

One of the things in the Kentucky
Building at the Worlds Fair that
makes it attractive to all visitors is
the very fine upright piano occupy
ing a place on the first floor. This
piano was a gift from ID. HI. Bald
win & Co., of Louisville. 1t has a
splendid tone and was valued by
the piano company at 5000. The
front panel is painted to represent
Kentucky scene, as are the side
panels. These painted panels are
considered veritable works of art
by exposition visitors and have
attracted as much attention as any
thing Iof this character on the
Worlds Fair Grounds. No better
description of the piano has been
written than that by Miss Wilhel-
mine Loss, of Lexington, in letter
to a friend while she was on a trip
to Cincinnati last May to attend
the musical festivities, during
which she had the privilege of a
private view of the annual Amer
lean artists exhibition. Miss Loos
writes as follows:
81 have heen greatly interested
in the piano Mr.. Meakin has deco
rated for the Kenucky State Build
ing at the Louisiana Purchase Ex-
position and am altogether de-
lighted with it in it's completion.
The piano was prepared by one Of
the Baldwin companies here at the
request of our commissioners, and
is of native Kentucky walnut, Of
beautiful color and quality, with
carvings representing the leaves
and seed-pod of our honey locust.
Mr.. Meakin was asked to decorate
the panels and he has put upon
them some typical Kentucky
scenes, making short trip par
ticularly to study them. / could
not think, when first heard of the
intention, that a painted piano
might be beautiful, hut seeing it in
the studio, was thoroughly
charmed. So well has the artist
carried the tones of the rich dark
wood into his landscapes that the
effect is absolutely harmonious,
and one feels that the two arts are
linked together, to perfect pleas
ing.
I'm the large front panel is the
principal scene. a little town with
hills beyond and low meadows in
front. The roofs of the houses peep
through the trees, one can guess at
shady streets pleasant to walk
through-smoke is rising from
hearths where friends and stranger
