grounds drinking in the loneliness of
the whole place." said Mrs. William
Randolph Hearst, after tour of the
exposition site in San francisco,
where the Panama-Pacific Interna-
tiona1 Exposition is daily unfolding
under the direction of artists and ar
tisans assembled by the state of Cali
fornia to build fitting place to eel
brate the completion of the Panama
canal
Mrs. Hearst is one of the commits
| sioners from the state of New York
to the Panama-Pacific Exposition,
and is in San Francisco TO assist in
experimenting of the furnishing Of
the New York building.
| Most of the furnishings for the
New York buildings at the exposi-
tion will be purchased in San Fran
cisco, and my time in California is
given over chiefly to selections of
materials. Your shops are wonder
full, and ! find everything necessary
for our building. 1 have been shop
ping all morning, and have enjoyed
it immensely
| ''Mr. Moore took US around the ex-
position grounds few days ago, and
with him to say open sesame as it
were, we were admitted to the
studios where the sculptors are pre-
pairing the statuary for the exposition
and the artists are painting the muir
ais that are to hang in the inner
courts. fear that if Mr.. Moore had
not been along we would not have
seen these splendid canyases. and I
would not liked to have missed them.
! 1.-The thing that l like most to
think about in connection with the
mural paintings is that they are
done by Americans. And the sculp-
tors, too. The categorical statuary
is superb, and to my mind fully as
interesting as anything which will be
in the exhibits in the Palace of Fine
: ARTS.
81 have been to a number of expo
sitions, and have found something in
each that chung to my memory when
all the other impression died out.
am sure that / shall carry from this
the memory of the Fine Arts Palace,
: that exquisite crescent-shaped dream
of architecture facing the lagoon in
which its grace and beauty are again
: produced as in mirror.
81 am told that at night during the
exposition a special lighting system
will be employed to battle this palace
in what they call triple moonlight.
am sure it will berthe abiding place
of the muses. and everything that
goes with romance.
1.-The lighting of the entire expo
sition is different from anything
!: ever before seen, and / am so impa-
tient to see it when the first food oil
light is turned on from the great pro-

bay.
1.-The site is ideal. Why, there is
