EDUCATIONAL EXHIBITS.
How Future generations VIII I'ront
from the Results of the Louisiana
Purchase Exposition.

Unborn generations Will profit by
the Worlds Fair of 1904. The influence
OF this exposition upon the educational
systems of the world viii be such as TO
be felt long after those who attend the
fair shall have passed away. The little
red schoolhouse OF the future will benz
eft by this influence ns less than Will
the great university, for one cannot help
but see in such a comprehensive expo
sition a light that will shine far into
the highways and byways of the earth.
One hears quite frequently in these
preexposition days the remark that the
st. Louis fair is to be primarily %educative
in It's spirit and tendencies. That the
creators of the exposition have in view
its educational value to the world, rather
than its greatness as a mere spectacle for
a period, there can be no doubt. They
have entered enthusiastically, in every
department Of the work, into the idea
that this exposition is going TO be a
great worlds university, a school for
the nations, in a sense more distinctly
defined than at any previous enterprise
of the kind.
Here, for the first time in the history
of the world, there will be a compare
tive exhibit of the educational methods
of every nation and state. That educa-
ton is the source of all progress has
been recognized by the exposition man
agement in giving first place among the
departments to education and in assign
ing to education and social economy for

THE STATE PALACES.
Fifty Three American Common
wealths Represented.
This includes Our TerritOries and Is
land Possessions Not Included in
Former Expeditions Notable
Feature Of the 81. Louis Fair.

State and territorial participation
in the Worlds Fair of 1904 is upon a
scale that exceeds the most sanguine
expectations. There are ffty-iye
states, territories and island posses
sions of the United States. Fifty
three of these are represented, a move
ment is on foot in the dfty-fourth TO
raise a fund for participation, and
there are prospects that the hfty-ffth
will not permit itself 60 go down into
history as the sole state unrepresented
at the greatest exposition ever held.
Forty-ive of these states and ter
ritories have appropriated money for
buildings or groups of buildings on
the exposition grounds. The majority
OF the buildings already are completed
or we'll under way. Many of them are
magnificent mansions.
The two states not yet officially rep
resented are New Hampshire and Del
aware. In New Hampshire a fund is
being raised by private subscription in
order that the Old Home State may
participate. The eight states and pos
sessions not represented by separate
buildings, but providing generous
displays, are Alabama, Colorado,
North Carolina, North Dakota, Wyo-
ming, Vermont, Florida and Porto
Rico.
At the Columbian Exposition in
Chicago there were thirty-nine state
and territorial buildings-six less than
at st, Louis. States and possessions
participating at st. Louis and absent
from Chicago are Alaska, Georgia, Ha-
wall, Indian Territory, Philippine Is
lands, Porto Rico, South Carolina and
Tennessee.
The aggregate amount appropriated
thus far for state ard territorial par
ticipation at ST. Louis is $6.764, 1856.
The total e%Xpendiuu-c q. Chicago for
such purposes was S7.l14,O31. The diff
ference in favor OF ST. Louis, four
months before the exposition opens,
is $1,S5O,9 55.
The Filipino reservation at St. Louis
occupies forty acre and includes
scores of buildings. 1t is aptly termed
an exposition within an exposition.
Alaska has three buildings. The In
dian Territory building is a large and
roomy structure. in which will De
made l display calculated to edify and
enlighten, as well as to 'amuse the
curious.
AS to the state buildings, they are
notable not only for their size and
costliness but for the picturesque To-
cations which they occupy. They
stand not in a rectangular group on
fiat ground. but extend along the
sides of several splendid avenues,
bearing such names as Colonial and
Commonwealth, stretching up the hill
sides through groves of natural forest
trees. Cleaning through the summer
foliage, their white or ivory staff ex-
teriors will present the appearance Of
hospitable mansions empowered amid
the green and bloom of an actual city's
choice residential section. Architects

nothing of the after-thought idea in this
may be shown by the fact that the Pal
ace Of Education was the first of the
great buildings to be completed. The
educational influences of the fair were
in the minds of the creators from the
first.
But outside the one building devoted
exclusively to the branch of education
by name, everything in the marvellous
spectacle will be educational. One can
not find anything within the limits Of
the 1,240 acres of exposition ground a
feature that lacks the quality Of being in
structiye. Whether it be a %ponderous
engine putting away in the turning Of
gigantic wheels, or the silent fame of a
chemists lamp aiding in the elucida-
ton of the secrets of the elements, all
exhibits and processes will teach.
In the discussion of vital topics by men
and women of Irrational and international
renown, at the various congresses to be
held during the exposition, there will be
a fruitful source of instruction. the in
fuence of which must be felt by the flu
ture. 1t is not oversanguine to hope
that at these congresses new light may
be thrown upon problems of the most in
innate interest 10 mankind.

perfect combinations of coziness and

the style of clubhouses. Others are

CASTLE CREEK DISTRICT
Visit of Colorado Penple to Some of
 Its Hines.

Mir. J. P. smith, MT O. P. Hopkins and wife. from Colorado Springs and Denver. and Miss Leah LG.feIty, of this city, were yesterday the guests of MT. J. Herman Aagaard on a trip to the Castle Creek mining district.
 The party visited the Jeffries mines belonging to Mrs. ". W. Mitchell of Portland. Me, and the Old Quishenber- ry mine, belonging to the Castle Creek Mining and Development company, of this city.
 Messrs. Smith and Hopkins both ex- perienced mining men, expressed thor ough satisfaction with the showing on both properties.
 The Old Quishenberrv again begins tc look as 1t did fifteen years ago, when it was a producer The old workings gre being opened up in a scientific mannev. and the company soon expects to commence shipping ore! The work on this property is under the manage ment of J. Herman Aagaard. and he intends to employ the most economical manner possible to clean out the old and caYed in workings.
 Mir. Smith took some of the ore with him to Denver, and he will probably soon be personally interested in the mine.
 Mir. Hopkins. who was here a year ago with Mrs. Mitchell when she bought the Jeffries mine fiom MT. Aagaard. was well pleased with the ad- vancement of the district since he was here last.
 The party then returned to Wicken- burg, and after supper at the Baxter hotel Miss Lafferty and MT. Aagaard took the train for Phoenix. while the Colorado parties left on the morning train for Denver

ICE WORKS IMPROVEMENTS
Placing of New Pump at the Lount
 Factory.

Extensive improvements are saiAs on a the Lount ice factory. For the fifth time in the history of that plant it has been found necessary to replace the pump in use with a larger one. to keep pace with the expanding busi- ness of the concern. This time it is proposed to put in a pump large enough to last for a long time; in fact twice the size needed for the present demands of the plant. The one being installed is a twenty horsepower pump and will throw fifty miners in- ches of water.
 The installation of this plant also gives a line on the water level of this immediate section. MT. Lount says it has been gradually lowering for years and it is now at least ten feet dee1er than it was when the plant was first built For the sake of economy the
