Louisiana's Unique Display

Especial Telegram to Evening Teller)
ST. LOUIS, Mo- Jan. 30.-One of
the most interesting and instructive
state exhibits to be seen at the ap
preaching worlds fair undoubtedly will
be that of Louisiana, which is now fast
assuming shape, Not content with re-
producing the historic Cabildo, where
the actual transfer of the Louisiana
purchase territory took place one hun
dred years ago. the Louisiana state fair
commission has decided to lay out the
plat of ground surrounding this build
ing so as to resemble in every particu-
lar the famous Jackson Square of New
Orleans
The Cabildo itself will undoubtedly
be one of the most interesting struc-
lures on the grounds. Its furnishings
throughout will be of the period of the
early part of the nineteenth century
and will include many fine specimens
of old furniture loaned by the old
French and Spanish families of New
Orleans. In addition it will contain
many priceless relics of the Spanish
and French occupation of the Louis
lana territory.

tried in Justice Coburn's court,
The examination as carried on by the
prosecuting attorney, Miles S. john
son has taken the form of prelim-
mary investigation of the actions of
all the parties connected directly or
indirectly with the Normal Hill sewer
system and evidence is being brought
out to show If there was any WORK
Norlin, not up to plans and specif1ca-
tions, and If fraudulent methods have
been used in dealing with the sewer
work, if the mayor the city council,
or other officers of the city have been
derelict in their duties.

ceed in having the charges against
their client annulled and the case
thrown out of court there is a bare
possibility from present indications
that the investigation may continue for
