The day was generally observed as
holiday. Almost every large employer
Of labor In the city granted a full hol1-
day to all employees and several sup
plemented this by presents Of tickets to
the fair. Banks, courts and all federal
and State offices were closed. The en-
tire city united in a determination to
break all records for worlds fair open
ings.
Although larger than any previous
exposition in point Of area covered ana
in number and size of exhibit palaces,
the st. Louis fair was much nearer
completion on the day set for its for
nal opening than was any or It's pred
ecessors This was due not only 10 the
fact that the opening was postponed
year from the date originally intended
but tt the fact that the men who nave
built this superb city of colossal ex-
hibit palaces In beautiful Forest, Park
are old and experienced hands III the
business.
When st. Louis conceived the Idea
Of celebratin the one-hundredth ami
versary OF the purchase OF the LOUIS
lana Territory" by giving an exposition
that would show the progress oil man
kind in all the arts and industries at
the opening of the twentieth century

perience and demonstrated ability In
this work. Nearly every department
of the exposition has been under the
direction of an expert in that parttcu-
lar line who has haad charge or the
same work in, previous expositions.
For those who have doubted tho
possibility Of eclipsing the Chicago Co
umblan Exposition or the last parls

pared a surprise--one whose arcllitec-
tural ana spectacular beauty VIII I'm

Mawhiney was out in the field, he no.
ticed that team drove up and that his
