ly. Then the old clapboards were re-
moved and the skeleton was covered
with a preparation which would hold
stucco The stucco was applied all
over the perpendicular walls, new
doors. and windows were cut where
needed and the former tower was re-
duced to a sort of a dome.
The roof was completely covered
with a manufactured roofing resem-
ling red tile. Outside it appears to
be concrete building with a tiled roof
Standing among the green foliage of
the big trees with its gray sides and
ed roof the new building is the most
imposing and at the same time the
most comfortable building on the
fair grounds.
Inside there have been many
changes also. The most important is
the construction of a mezZanine floor
under the dome to be used as a ladies'
rest room. On that floor the fair
management has installed four toilet
rooms and two lavatores.

STAY OFF U. S. SHIPS
Navy League Members Denied Priv
ileges by Secretary Daniels.

Washington, Aug. 18.-Secretary
Daniels has severed all connections be-
tween the navy and the navy league.
He issued an order that no agent or
officer of the league be permitted to
board any vessel or enter any navy
yard.
They can call it the Thompson
League" Mr.. Daniels said, 'or the
Stanton League, or the Anti-Navy
League-perhaps that would be the
best name for it under the present
management-but they can hardly cali
it the Navy League.
Il want the patriotic people who
have given their support to the good
work the league has done to know
this
This was the secretarys answer to
the letter of Colonel Thompson, pres
ident of the league in which Colonel
Thompson assumed responsibility for
the statement that the navy depart
ment had delayed the investigation of
the Mare Island explosion at the be-
hest of powerful labor interests
Incidentally Mr.. Daniels announced
that the report of the completed in
vestigation of this had been mailed
from the Mare Island navy yard on
Wednesday, the very day on which
the navy league charged that the in
vestigation was being delayed.

fool its oldest friend.
Wonderful things have been done to
horticultural hall since last spring and
today it is perhaps the best all-around
building on the fair grounds.
The big building had sagged, the
roof leaked, the windows had been
broken, the foundation caVed in and
it was otherwise a wreck. Early this
summer work began upon it. First it
was raised sufficiently to permit the
laying of a new concrete foundation
which lined the structure up perfect
