eastern part of the grounds. The
main entrance to the Exposition will
let the visitor into the centre of this
group. AS each building covers from
eight to fifteen acres and contains
several miles of aisles, lined on either
side by most interesting exhibits, the
visitor will see his time slipping away
with a world of things yet remaining
to be seen.
The Government has spent more on
this Exposition than it has ever ex-
pended before. First, it gave 100000
to the general fund of the Exposition,
upon consideration that the city of st.
Louis would raise $10,OO0,000. This
of course was promptly done. Then,
the Government appropriated nearly
a million and l half more for buildings
and exhibits, and a few weeks ago de-
cided to make a loan of 81 1000 to
the Exposition in order to have the
elaborate plans carried out to their
completeness. The Government can
not lose much on this investment at
st. Louis, for the reason that st. Louis
returns in internal revenue taxes for
the Eastern half of Missouri alone,
over SIS, 1000 a year.

beauty of the Government building.

stucken, director of the Cincinnati Or
chestra, has written a march, and
Henry *. Hadley, of New York, has
written a waltz, also upon invitation
of the Exposition, for its musical pro-
grams.
The central feature of the Expo
sition, or what is intended to be the
most beautiful scene in the whole
grand picture, is made up of Cascade
Gardens, the Colorado of States and
the Hall of Festivals. The gardens
with their cascades and statuary, and
the elaborate architectural features,
are nearly a half a mile from east to
west and represent an expenditure of
million dollars. 1t is the most am
bilious scheme of formal gardening ever
undertaken at IN Exposition, or else
where. The Festival Hall, 200 feet
in diameter and 200 feet high, con-
tains the largest organ in the world,
and has a seating capacity for thirty
five hundred people.
Practically all st. Louis is preparing
to accommodate Worlds Fair visi-
tors. The private homes will be open
for the reception of guests throughout
the Exposition. The prices will be from
SOC. to $3.50 per day for each person
for rooms. Restaurants are so plenti-
full that meals may be had in almost
any locality where the visitors may
happen to StOD.

Fisheries building and sea coast de-
Tense guns.
The Palace of Agriculture is the
largest of the Exposition buildings
and stands in the central western
part of the grounds, upon a high ele-
walton. This building covers twenty
acres of ground, the equivalent of a
small farm, and contains many thou
sands of exhibits, not only from the
States of the United States but from
countries of the world. The Palace
Of Horticulture stands directly south
Of the Palace of Agriculture and is
400 by 800 feet.
The Palace of Art, composed of four
large pavilions, is one of the most in
teresting parts of the Fair. The several
buildings contain . total of 1876 gal
leries, filled with tie priceless treas
ures of Europe and America, gathered
with great care by discriminating
committees. AS an example of the care
with which these selections were
made, Italy may be taken as an ex-
ample. Some four thousand paintings
were offered, yet only four hundred
could be selected. One of the four
buildings of the Palace of Art is de-
voted entirely to statuary.
The Palace of Forestry, Fish and
Game is in the western part of the
grounds, covering four acres. The

Admiral e. l. Alexeieff, described
by Senator Beveridge in his book,
ssThe Russian Advance" as "a master
mind. a master will, altogether a mas
terful man." is the subject of an in
forming article by Charles Johnston,
in Harper's Weekly. Admiral Alex
cleft has toiled for years at the build
ing of a new region Of Russian infiu-
ence, a region nearly al large as the
combined area of France and Ger
many, and with a fringe of possible
future acquisitions many times great
err. only to see the whole of his life
work threatened with dissolution. "In
this lifework," says Mr.. Johnston, 'he
has accomplished miracles almost, fac
ing conditions of great and unexpect-
ed difficulty, amid surroundings alter
nately picturesque with the glamor of
the East and squalid with intrigue
and physical wretchedness. Through
all these difficulties Admiral Alex
cleft has acted with constant resolu-
ton, force, rapidity, and constructive
power.

the western part of the grounds, and
adjacent to it is the fine large ath-
letic field, with amphitheatre seating
twenty-seven thousand people. Upon
this field the games will take place dur.
ing the summer.
In this hurried glance at the EXPOSE
ton Of 1904, we must not forget that
very interesting quarter, known as the
Pike. This is the amusement street
Of the Exposition. The visitor will
certainly open his eyes in amazement
when he sees the array of amusements
spread out for his de~lectation. 1t is
a long story in itself, to tell what has
been prepared for his entertainment.
The Pike is considerably more than a
mile long, and upon either side are ar
ranged about fifty elaborate and ex-
tremely novel shows. Some of them
cover as many as ten or eleven acres
each.
The Worlds Fair will open on Sat-
urday, April 80, with fitting ceremon-
les. Upon that occasion an anthem
written by Edmund Clarence Stedman
will be sung by a chorus of six hun
bred voices. The music-by the en-

Paine, of Harvard University-as well
as the poem, was written especially
for this occasion upon the invitation
of the Exposition. Frank Wander

most interesting exemplifcation.
In the central western part of the
grounds are many of the Foreign Gov
eminent Pavilions. Some fifty for
eign nations are taking active part in
the Worlds Fair. several of them
spending more than a half-million dol
lars each. These are England, France,
Germany, Brazil. Japan and China.
Japan alone has brought seventy
eight thousand exhibits.
The displays from the Philippine ISL
ands form a very attractive feature
of the Exposition. There are some
eighty thousand of these exhibits ar
ranged in buildings upon a reserva-
ton of forty acres, lying west of the
Palace of Agriculture.
About thirty acres are given up to
an exhibit of the North American In
dams, their industries and home life.
A large space is devoted to the aerial
c~oncourse. Here will be held the series
Of airship trials and contests, upon
which the Exposition has planned to
expend 100000. Of this sum, $780,
600 is to be given as a grand prize to
the a%eronaut who will sail an airship
in the quickest time over a fourteen
mile course.

r A AND DIGESTION.

This Process Causes Their Emission, az
Does Muscular Activity.
That the processes of digestion, as
we'll as mental and muscular activity,
seem to cause the emission of Mays,
is the conclusion reached by NJ. Lam
bert, in France, after a series of inter-
esting experiments. He believes that
these curious rays are produced by
ferments, especially by those con-
cerned in the digestion of albuminoid
matter. In his experiments on diges-
ton, says a writer in Harper's Week
ly, M. Lambert placed a small quantity
of fibrin in tubes containing in one
case a~ctivated pancreatic juice, and
in another artificial gastric juice made
by mixing five per cent. solution Of
pepsin with a four per cent. solution
of hydrochloric acid. From these
tubes the Mays were emitted, and
were detected not only by producing
increased luminescence of a phos-
phorescent screen, but also photo
graphically, thus removing the SUBJ
jective element from the experiment.
AS a result of these experiments, NJ.
Lambert believes that in the course
of digestion the fibrin u~ndergoes
strains which act to produce Mays.

The Puma is the Most Sensitive to the
Influence of Melody.
Some very curious experiments have
recently been carried out in the Ger
man Geological Gardens in order to
ascertain the actual influence of music
upon animals. The instrument was
the violin and Herr Baker was the per-
former.
OF all the animals the puma was the
most sensitive to the musical infiu-
ence. His moods changed rapidly, ac-
cOrding to the nature of the. melody,
the animal frequently becoming very
excited and nervous, "just like a
Frenchman," is the report says.
Leopards were entirely u~nconcerned,
but the lions appeared to be afraid, al
though their cubs wanted to dance
when the .usic became livelier. The
hyenas were very much terrified, but
the monkeys were merely curious and
the monkeys were merly curious.
The experiments are to be continued,
and with a variety of instruments. in
order to distinguish between the men,

by the music and those which are
merely the result of an unusual ex-
perience.-Scientiic american.

departed from the regular designs, it
being of a conical shape. This affair,
instead Of being pushed over the mate
rial to be pressed is rolled. In the GEN.
ire of the base of the conical iron is
placed the handle which manipulates
it. This con is heated by means of

strawberry crop is now IN the North

Queer good and satisfactory prices.
The crop is somewhat earlier this
year than last, thus enabling the Mis-
sissippi growers to get in a week or
two ahead of the Tennessee shippers,
and reaping a harvest they would not
otherwise secure. The only trouble
with the Mississippi berry growers is
that their Louisiana friends get to the
Northern markets for a week or two
ahead of them, wherefore the hope
of the Mississippian is that the Louis
lana crop will be exhausted before the
end of their best season.
