WHEN YOU GO TO THE WORLD'SFAyR
Suggestions That Should Be Helpful TO the Stranger
in St. Louis-No Trouble When You Get Your Bear
ings-The Greatest of Worlds Expositions.

1t will be worth all the self-denial
that one may practice for several years
to see the Worlds Fair of 1904 at st.
Louis. Money saved, earned or Dor
rowed cannot be better spent than in
getting acquainted with the worlds
progress as revealed at this latest and
greatest of eXpositions. All OF us can
not travel around the world to take
note of what the nations are doing,
but the nations from all around the
world desire us to know and have sent
their best works to st. Louis to be
placed on display.
Within the two square miles of the
Louisiana Purchase exposition at st.
Louis there is more to be seen than
the space before. 1t is a great cOllec-
ton Of eXpositions massed into one. 1t
Is nearly twice as large as the Colum-
bian exposition at Chicago, nearly ten
times larger than the Pan-American
exposition at Buffalo. Every exhibit
palace offers the equivalent of a splen-
did exposition, each covering many
acres of space.
The largest of these is the Palace of
Agriculture, with its 90 acres under
roof and filled to the doors with the
most wonderful agricultural collection
ever assembled upon any occasion.
The important states and nations of
he world are all here alongside great
numbers of individual exhibitors. Five
great staples have been chosen for ex-
traordinary display. Corn, cotton,
sugar, rice and tobacco are here ar
rayed as they have never been before
and undreamed possibilities are re-
vealed to inquiring minds. Such a dairy
display was never attempted and such
a collection Of farm machinery and
tools was lever placed on exhibition.
The Palace of Transportation is next

The United States Government
building is on a broad terrace half way
up the hill in the extreme eastern part
of the grounds. Uncle Sam never had
such a large exhibit building at an ex-
position before. 1t is nearly 800 feet
long and $50 feet wide. Another build
ing devoted to fisheries built in the
style Of an old Roman house stands
upon lower ground directly southwest
from the larger building. The outdoor
display of ordnance is not the least in
teresting of the government exhibits.
The Palace of Art at the Worlds Fair
contains 1876 galleries. Each gallery
is a large room, lighted from above
and filled with the choicest works.
All countries of the world in which art
has made noteworthy progress are rep
resented. The group of buildings
which house this magnificent display
represents an expenditure of more than
$1,000 900. The group is situated upon
high ground south of Festival hall.
The Festival hall is the center piece Of
a rich architectural work browning the
hill which rises above the Grand Basin
and upon whose slopes are the Cascades
and gardens. Here another million
dollars has been expended to produce
a decoration that will distinguish this
exposition from all others.
In a short article such as this one
a only refer to such great features as
the Philippine exhibit, covering 40
acres and containing more than 1000
natives from those far-off Pacific is
lands; the United States government
Indian exhibit, covering many acres
and occupying a large building; the ex-
hibit Of the United States bureau of
plant industry, consisting of an out
door map of the United States, cover
ing four acres; the great athletic field
where the Olympian games of 1904 will
The Aberdeen Democrat. (Aberdeen, South Dakota) 1???-1909, 1904-04-29

In size, covering Is acres. One may
only hint at the wonders it contains.
The historical exhibit of locomotives is
one of the features. 1t shows the de-
yelopment of rs years in locomotive
construction. Strange indeed is the
person who is not yet impressed with
these evidences of mans long struggle
with the problem of rail transportation,
the most civilizing of modern influ-
ences ceSt &c / newspaper, which
must always stand first. To describe in
detail this exhibit would be a long story
in itself. The exhibit is made com
plete by the installation of the largest
locomotive ever built and by some
magnificent imported locomotives. We
cannot leave the Palace of Transports
ton without a reference to the great
automobile show, the motor boats and
other water craft, and thesgreat car
riage display.
Now let us cross the flower gardens
to the Palace of Machinery just south
of Transportation. The huge power
generators are the first things to arrest
the eye-the disclaimers engine of
5,000-horse power, the Curtis steam tur-
bine of 8,000-horse power, the Parsons
steam turbine of 5000 kilowatts, the
four Westinghouse generators Of 5000
horse power each, and each as high as
a house. And then other generators
great and small of all kinds-the most
wonderful display of engines ever as
sembled. But these are not all. Think
of ten acres of glistening machines of
every kind and you have some idea Of
the contents of the Palace of Machin-
cry.
We cross the lagoon to the eastward
and come to the beautiful Palace Of
Electricity, with eight acres Of exhib-
its from many countries which show
the marvellous development of cleo
trical science. To the north again over
one of the arched bridges we approach
the Palace of Varied Industries, view
ing its wonderful grace and splendor
as we go. Here are IA acres of ex-
hibits from all over the world. The
Palace of Manufactures Is the same
size and stands on the opposite side Of
the Plaza of st. Louis. 1t is equally
interesting in the variety and newness
Of It's contents. Here again the nations
OF the world and the manufacturers
from all parts of the United States dis
play their best products.
Opposite the Palace of Manufacture
to the southwark is the Palace Of Eda-
cation, this being the first time that
education has been allotted a great
building all its own. Al variety 81
schools In daily session are the feature
OF this eigl t-acre display. The two ex-
hfbit buildings in the eastern part OF
the matn group are Mines and Metal
lurgy End Liberal Arts. The Depart
mens Of Mines and MetallIlgy has ]

culture and horticulture, covering

Inside inn, where 5000 guests may find
accommodation at rates from $1.5O to
$500 per day; the extensive live stock
pavilion; the great landscape clock
made of flowers, 112 feet in diameter,
and giving the correct time of day:
the intramural railway, which gives a
seven-mile ride for a single fare, and
many other things of interest to Wis
itors.
Even to the timid traveller st. Louis
presents no complications. 1t is all as
plain as a b C when once you get your
bearings. The streets all run east and
west or north and south with rarely a
confusing diagonal. Market street and
its western extension, Laclede avenue,
are the dividing line which separates
the northern and southern sections Of
the city. All streets north and south
from Market begin their numbering at
Market, so that No. 2024 South Broad
way, for example, would be 20 blocks
south from Market street. All east and
west streets begin their numbers at the
Mississippi river, so that No. 1920 would
be 81 blocks west OF the river. Some
times in a long block 200 numbers are
allowed.
All trains into st. Louis arrive at
Union station, one Of the finest rail-
road terminals in the world. The sta
tion is on the south side of Market
street between Eighteenth and TWenti-
eth streets, SO that when the visitor
energies from the station he finds him
self at the beginning of the city num-
bering both north and south M ~
blocks from the river.
Standing on Market street with his
back to the station the downtownSor
main business section Of the city is to
his right about one mile. The Worlds
Fair is to his left, westward about FIVE
miles. All the street cars are SO la
beled that he may easily lnow which
cars to take. Cars running north on
Eighteenth street, at his right, intersect
the several ear lines running between
the worlds Fair and the business sec
ltion OF the city. BY walking one, two
