GEORGIA BUILDING TO
BE COMPLETED MAY IS.

Commissioner General Hughes
Praises Savannah Exhibits.
The Georgia State building at the
Louisiana Purchase Exposition will be
completed by the middle of the present
month. This announcement was made
by Commissioner General Dudley NJ.
Hughes, of Danville, Ga, at the De
Soto yesterday.
The building will cost $4,000 and
Mr.. Hughes said $500 of this amount
is yet to be raised by the Georgia
commissioners. He declared that no
part of this amount is expected from
Savannah, as taking everything into
consideration, this city has already
contributed more literally than any
other city in Georgia toward the cree
ton of the building. He says the
smaller towns of the state will be ask
ed to raise the money.
Commissioner General Hughes will re-
turn to st. Louis Within a week or two,
and remain there until August He de-
clared that Savannah's exhibit at the
exposition will be a credit to the city.
The naval stores exhibit sent from this
city, is perhaps the most unique ex-
hibit from the state of Georgia.
All Georgfans who attend the fair,
Mr.. Hughes said, will be entertained
in the Georgia building, and every
thing possible will be done to make
them feel at home. The building will
be in charge of Georgians, who have
an extensive acquaintance throughout
the state, and they will take pleasure
in showing the visitors from this state
the sights of the exposition.
Mr.. Hughes is president of the
Georgia Agricultural Association, and
| declares that the State Fair at Macon
this year will be one of the greatest
| in the history of the association. He
will spend the months of August and
September in the state arranging for
| the fair, and says that from the present
outlook the exhibits will far exceed
| those at any previous fair.
