OREGON LEADS IN BUILDING AT THE ALASKA

OREGON'S building at the Alaska-Tnkon-Paciflc
Exposition Is fast
nearina; completion. The Beaver
state, among: all that have taken ac
tion to be represented at the Fair,
leads in the amount of work done. The
Oregon structure, practically complete,
is one of the most handsome buildings
on the ground. It stands in a promi
nent place on Nome circle.
An army ot men Is engaged in the
task of completing the big Exposition.
All Indications point to a completed
fair on opening day, June 1, 1909.
Progress in construction Is rapid and
a large part of the gigantic task has
been accomplished. At the present time
it is estimated by fair officials that 65
per cent of the work has been done.
Men experienced in exposition building
say no fair was ever so far advanced
before the date of Its opening.
The. grading and clearing of the ave
nues, plazas and circles is finished.
Most of the large and important build
ings are either under way or already
completed, while others are soon to be
started. .There are many applications
for exhibit space coming in and about
30 large attractions have been secured
for the Pay Streak, the name of the
amusement boulevard, corresponding
to the Trail at the Lewis and Clark
Exposition.
It is the plan of the management to
provide "for the erection of permanent
structures. Of these, there will be at
least four large buildings and other
mailer ones. The largest will be the
Machinery. Fine Arts, Auditorium and
Forestry buildings. Under the act of
the' Washington Legislature appropriating-
fl, 000.000 for the 1909 Fair, It was
provided that $600,000 was to go Into
permanent buildings for the use of the
University of Washington. Following
the example of the Portland Exposi
tion, a huge structure of logs known
as the Forestry building, will be erect
ed by the State Commission with the
$440,000 provided for state participa
tion in the Exposition.
The roof of the Auditorium is now
being put in place and the Palace of
Fine Arts, across Puget Plaza, which
Is Just inside the main entrance, shows
Its steel work in the air.' The Mines
building will soon be completed and Its
twin structure, the Fisheries building.
Is under way. The Administration
building has been occupied for a year
and the emergency hospital has also
been finished; The fire station Is com
pleted. The nursery for the growing
of shrubs and flowers has been in op
eration for over a year. As soon as
the different buildings are completed.

There will be other large exhibit

They are the Foreign, Transportation

chinery Annex. The latter was found
necessary on account of tne large num
ber of applications for space In this
department. The Government group,
which constitutes a small Exposition
in itself, will be started soon. The

SCIENTIST FAVORS IT ABOVE
ELECTRICITY.
Tolnts Facts In Support of His Con
tention That Gaslight Is
Best Indoors.
In all systems of illumination where
flame is used either to give the light Itself
or to heat to Incandescence some auxiliary .
body, as a Welsbach mantle, the nature
of the products of combination is a very
Important matter. In the early days of
the gas Industry it threatened to wreck
the future of gas for indoor illumination,
as we are reminded by Vivian B. Lewis
in a lecture delivered before the British
Institution of Gas Engineers and abstract
ed in Technical Literature. Mr. Lewis
believes that gas as now made Is mora
healthful than the electric light. He
notes that the first crude gas in use was
rich in sulftireted hydrogen, and gave rise
to such discomfort when consumed that
ventilating burners of clumsy device had
to be employed, while leaky fittings gave
at all times an objectionable aroma. Says
the lecturer:
"A very short period served to convince
the gas manager that the purity of the
gas was a matter of even greater import
ance to him than to the public, as the lat
ter could escape the effects of the sul
furized products of combustion by adopt
ing other illuminants, while the gas man
ager's livelihood depended on keeping his
customers. As a result, purification from
sulfureted hydrogen was adopted, and the
use of coal-gas Increased with enormous
rapidity.
"With the advent of the electric light
as an illimlnant, great stress was laid
upon its enormous advantages from the
hvgienic point of view; and its supporters
still make the claim that It must of neces
sity be far more healthful to use as an
illuminant than coal-gas. It has not un
naturally been assumed that, owing to In
candescent electric lighting adding noth-
ing to the impurities In the atmosphere,
and what is quite as Important with
drawing no oxygen from It, It must be
the most hygienic form of Illumination to
employ, but in the years whlcn nave
elapsed since electricity was pressed Into
the service tf man for illuminating pur
poses, it has become perfectly clear that,
though it is inactive as regards vitiation
of the atmosphere, a gas-llghted room will
nearly always be more pleasant and
healthy to live in than one lighted by the
newer form of Ulumlnant."
In all processes of ventilation, the lec
turer goes on to say. the great factors
which enable us to change the atmosphere
in the dwelling-rooms are the air-currents
set up by alterations in temperature and
diffusion between volumes of air at dif
ferent temperatures. It Is this, he claims,
which gives coal-gas Its great advantages
as an illuminant over electric lighting. He
says :
"Using an Incandescent mantle on an
atmospheric burner, above four cubic feet
of gas per hour are consumed: and this
gives two cubic feet of carbon dioxid.
which would very soon suffice to raise the
proportion of carbon dioxid above the
sanitary limit of 6 parts In 10.000. But
though everything be done to render the
room as airtight as possible, It will be
found that the proportion of carbon dioxid
is enormously less than it should be by
theory; this being due to the fact that
alteration in the temperature of the air
of the room sets up currents and actions
which tend to bring about a change of
the atmosphere.
"Carbon dioxid is a gas considerably
heavier than air; so much so, indeed, that
it can be poured from one vessel to an
other almost like a liquid. But. like all
other gases, it is expanded by heat; and
as the foul air coming from the lungs, and
containing some 6 per cent of carbon
dioxid, is at practically the temperature
of the body I. e., 98 degrees Fahrenheit it
at once rises toward the ceiling, while the
products of , combustion from the gas
burner, being at a still higher tempera
ture, also rush up to this point, so that
the foul air is always to be found at the
top of the room. One might think this,
foul air when cooled crown would descend
Into the room again. But here comes
into play the process of diffusion a
process by which gases, instead of arrang
ing themselves, like other forms of matter,
according to their weight, undergo a min
gling or diffusion.- the rate of which Is
dependent upon their weight a light gas
mixing rapidly with others, while a heavy
one diffuses more slowly. It Is found
that, once mingled, the gases remain In
perfect admixture; so that in the present
case the heavy carbon dioxid will not
again separate from the air into which it
has become diffused."
An Interesting series of experiments is
described by. the author, who believes that
they show conclusively that -the air of the
lower portion of a room, if one or two
people only are present. Is as pure with
gas-lighting as with electric-lighting,
while if a large number an present the
advantages are enormously in favor of .
gas the air with electric lighting becom
ing rapidly so impure as to be dangerous.
