Louisiana Purchase Exposition Is a
Soul : Awakening Spectacle and a
Monument TO Human Progress =

81. Louis correspondence:
What the world has been looking for
ward to for half a dozen years and what
all civilization will be talking about for
generations to come is the Louisiana
Purchase Exposition, now seen in all It's
glory, at St. Louis. 1t is a soul-awaken-
ing spectacle, a monument to human pro-
gress, an epoch in industrial history and
an achievement, par excellence, of art.
Over seven million persons visited the
Worlds Fair in the first half Of its ex-
~istence. and not one visitor went away
but who proclaimed the wonders of the
sights beheld. Those who come later
and again will have more to see for the
grandeur OF the enterprise grows as its
age natures.
Late summer, autumn and fall are the
seasons that will bring many millions
more of visitors and when the gates Of
the exposition close on Dee. ! the world
will have gotten its full share Of the
benefits accruing from the expenditure of
the enormous sum of $50,090,000 and the
employment Of the best artists and arti-
sans in the entire world.
Covering 1,240 acres. yearly a third
of which is woodland, the Louisiana Pur-
chase Exposition extends from the west
ern limits of st. Louis city into st. Louis
county, occupying a site which is one

city from a great height the effect would
be that OF many glistening white stones
set within a border of emeralds. Chi
cage boasted Of the lake that formed the
background OF the Columbian picture, st.
Louis points to the soft verdure tint that
rests the eye when turned from the deco
ratiye works.
In these grounds are over 800 build
ings. Among them are thirteen main ex-
hibit palaces and several lesser ones, fifty
buildings erected by States, a score con-
structed by foreign governments, ten
large stone structures leased from Wash
ington University, perhaps a hundred
unique structures in which concession
aires give entertainment, several villages,
inhabited by Filipinos and other repre-
sentatives from beyond the seas; fire en-
CINE houses, hospitals, booths almost
without number, camping grounds and a
large athletic field on whick the famous
Olympic games are held.

great central dome OF the. government
building Is visible from the very center
of the Fair, looking across the pictnr-
esque sunken garden that lies between
the Palaces Of Mines and Metallurgy and
Liberal Arts. This government building
is the largest structure ever provided at
an exposition by the Federal government.

government, and space is also devoted TO
the Library OF Congress, the Smithsonian
Institute and the Bureau of American
Republics. The building is a vast store
house Of an endless variety Of treasures
dear to the heart Of every true Amerir
car.
Passing out at an end OF the govern
ment building one sees the Government
Fisheries edifce, which is devoted ex
clusively to the display and exploitation
of the United States Fish Commission
enterprises and the exhibition OF food
fishes and shellfsh. Specimens of fishes
from river and sea, lake and brook, from
far and near, are displayed here, swim
ming in huge tanks which are supplies
with fresh or salt water to suit the hab-
its of the species which they contain.
Matching apparatus of various kinds is

Apropos Of the question whether i.

to the coffee houses Of England.

brass-bound box with lock and KEY
was hung up, and into the slit at the
Top customers were expected to drop a

egation, was held Thursday. The sole
purpose Of the convention was to elect
delegates to the national convention.
the state convention for the nomination
OF candidates for state Office having been
called for July 20, when the same dele
gates that were in the convention Thurs
day will return. A platform will then be
adopted.
The convention instructed the 30 del
egates to the national convention to vote
as unit for Judge Parker, of New York,
for president, and indorsed Thomas Tag
CART for national committeeman, and
recommended him to the national COM
mittee as its chairman. The first vote on
the organization of the convention
showed the Parker forces to number
1904 and the Hearst following 468. The
vote on instruction for Parker was 954
to 5S2, many delegates being in sympa
thy with the plea of the twelfth district
that its two delegates be allowed to vote
their sentiments for Hearst, the plea
being that otherwise it might endanger
the seat Of Representative Robinson,
democratic congressman from the dis
trict. This was the only district of the
IL carried by the Hearst following.
A feature of the convention was the
demonstration that flowed the mention
of the name of George Nice lellan, of New
York. The cheering lasted several min
utes, several hundred delegates and
spectators rising and waving hats and
handkerchiefs.
