BEYOND POWER TO DESCRIBE.
Gen. Grosvenor Says q Visit to the Fair
Equals a University Course.

Gen. Grosvenor Says Visit to the Fair
Equals University Course.
Gen. Charles H. Grosvenor, of Ohio,
has been spending the past week in ST.
Louis as the guest of Col. S. w. For
dyce, who served with the general dur
ing the Civil War, part of the time in
the same division. Gen. Grosvenor has
visited the fair almost every day and he
is highly pleased. In speaking of the
fair he said:
have been greatly impressed by the
magnitude, beauty and completeness of
this great exposition. 1t is wonderful
beyond my power of description. The
first thing that impresses me is that no
man can, by reading the most graphic
descriptions that can possibly be written
or listening to the most graphic oral de-
scriptions that can be given of this Won
derful aggregation, get any adequate
conception of it. It is an object lesson
of the growth, development and perfec-
ton of our nation. The exhibits are
pleasing and instructive, and the whole
show is calculated to impress the be-
holder with the grandeur of America
and the benefcence of her institutions.
| So far as the instructive character of
the fair is concerned, it seems to me that
visit of ten days by a man of ordinary
aptness and appreciatiye capacity is
almost equal to postgraduate course
in university.
visited Paris, London, Chicago, Buf-
falo and most of the other expositions
which we have had in the United States,
and also the initial exposition at Glas-
gov. No one of them, or all OF them
put together equals this st. Louis
Worlds Fair.
GLAD GOVERNMENT TOOK PART.
l do not regret that the government
took part. do not begrudge the money
that was appropriated, and I feel as i.
there ought to be national pride enough
and national interest enough in the grea
success of the concern to bring to thu
support of the orgination all that is nee
essary to complete the undertaking.
do not discuss minor details, and l d.
not discuss some things that may hav
been learned by experiance, and coul'
not have been in any other way, but d.
insist that the Worlds Fair at st. Loui
' is an institution of which every Ameri
can ought to be proud.
We have not suffered by the heat
e There is sort of impression gone fort
i that ST. Louis is the hottest place in tn
/ United States on all occasions, but
has been hotter in Ohio, in Illinois, i
4 Indiana and in New York and Washing
4 ton city since we have been in ST. Loui
q than it has been here. believe that tn

ance here, and know the visitors wi
go home well pleased that they hav
