~ T. LOUIS, Aug. 24-In the year
y 1908 the State Of Utah added to
the wealth Of the world an output
Of lead, copper silver and gold
amounting to about &2s 100000 a state
capable Of doing this, without unusual
effort, IN one line Of industry mining
might be expected 20 have something
10 show when It came 20 make an eN-
hibIt for the great worlds fair. She
has not only anticipated, but has far
exceeded reasonable expectation She
has an exhibit worth crossing the ocean
a. see and has fully justified her claim
to be considered one Of the great in
dustrial states Of the American union,
We wish first 10 mention the exhibit
IN the palace Of mines and metallurgy,
Whoever planned and constructed the
display was an artist In his tastes and
experienced I'm his business, aud the
remark may equally apply 10 the ar
rangement Of the exhibit In the other
departments Of the exposition.
COMPREHENSIVE DISPLAY,
This mining display Is comprehensive,
As large as II is, II can be easily COM
passed even by the novice, The first
thing 10 attract attention Is q con-
Centrating mill in complete operation.
All the various manipulatons Of the
ores to the ultimate output Of pure metal
can be followed by the eye and readily
understood The looker-on takes his
first lesson IN actual mining operations,
and while he Is astonished at the pro-
cesses he is practically educated by the
object lesson
Aside from the usual products OF the
mines I'm the shapes OF pyramids and
columns Of valuable ores, there is
most interesting collection Of more IN
Usual minerals and other things
brought TO light from the nouutpins Of
Utah. Carnotite from which thai most
wonderful Of minerals, radium Is pro-
duced may be seen. IL appears that
Il is Of such frequent occurrence In
the Utah mines that 1t is quite likely
they may be able TO suppl ythc worlds
demand.
Altogether Utah has 20 large glass
cases and about As tables filled with
mineral exhibits, to say nothing Of the
floor space.
AGRICULTURAL EXHIBIT
Utah's CNhlDit IN the palace OF asrl-
culture is the equal I'm beauty, COM
pletenass and dignity Of any state and
maintains the reputation achieved IN
her mining display, The arrangement
of the exhibit is striking. I'm part II Is
displayed In "A pavilion. the beautiful
dome Of which Is upheld by glass
columns filled with seeds from irrigated
farms. while the columns themselves
are antWined with grapes and wild
flowers In rich profision. The display
Of fruits, vegetables and cereals Is par
ticularly fine, revealing TO unaccustom-
ed eyes the vast possibilities OF irriga-
tion.
Overlooking the exhibit stands Miss
Utah" carved with artistic skill from a
700 pound mass OF beeswaX. That
she has many admirers from
other states than her native one is
attested by the delighted crowds upon
whom she youchsafes her kindly smiles.

OF that great lady, Charlotte of Ra-

memoirs says: The diet of this illus
trious person was largely composed Of
salt beef and soup made of beer; also
a certain horrible ragout of fermented
cabbage which made the whole castle
stink when she partook of it. She
called it 'Schaucraout.' and she used
to compel her guests to eat it. Indeed
she made Il sort of patriotic persecu-
ton OF it, so that every one tried to
evade her dinners. She would eat the
most horrible mesSeS-pruneS and
pears cooked with lard and onions,
salads made of raw behring's ana ap-
pies soaked in oil and mustard, pastieS
of offers flesh and snails. She pow
dered her melon with Scotch snuff.
