ARCHITECTURAL SPLENDOR.
At the Trans-Mississippi and Internationa! Exposition at Omaha From June to November cf Th!a Year
Will Pj Seen Many Artistic Decorations, Beautiful Landscapes and
Famous Bits of Statuary and Paintings.
The Greek Ionic stylo of orohitectnro
characterizes the mines building. Tho
Older is of heroic proportions, carried
out with great artistio care in every
detail. The principal feature of tho
lagoon facade is a circular dome 150
feet in circumference, rising to a height
of 78 feet The dome is sunixirted on
a circulur row of fluted Ionic columns,
and tho space euclosed by them and
under tho domo is open, form ins a
grand, uien, domed vestibule for an
approuch to the building. The inner
dome is richly designo l with rihs and
panels aud is to bo decorated in colors,

A VERITABLE DREAM CITY.
Nothing llrneath the Sky Is I'nwurthy
or lbs Artist's Attention.
Tho exterior decoration of the build
ings at the Trans-Mississippi and In
ternational Exposition, to be held in
Omaha, promises to be both unique and
atlructivo, While the individual
buildings will show in their decora
tions some approach to modern ideas,
tin statues adorning the grounds will
be exact copies of the famous figures of
antique urt The stately figure of the
Venus do Medici, an AhiIIo or a Faun,
will lighten the grounds with their
classio beauty and this delightful mode
of reproducing the antique will prove
not only the most beautiful that can bo
conceived, but, as well, tho most in
structive. With the natural advantages
In landscape gardening that aro pos
sessed by the grounds, the lake, the
Bloping bluff tract, with the river so
many feet beneath the emerald turf
aud tho supeiabundunce of nature's
fairest (lowers all these, together with
the imposing bits of statuary that will
dot the grounds, should make it a ver
itable garden of tho gods.
Tho primary theory that will lie
demonstrated in the deooration of each
building is that the statuary, the relief
and decorative work generally will be
symbolical of the exhibits contained
therein. Nothing beneath the sky is
unwoithy of tlie artist's attention,
lieiiuty is everywhere, in everything, if
our genius but lead us to seek (or it.
Perhaps the most unusual of all tho
designs in decorating to he seen is that
which adorns the electricity building.
Tlie general architectural plan of this
Rtinctnto is one of classic simplicity,
thoiiuh the decoration shows a happy
blending of modern ideas. All tho
cresting, scroll work, ornaments and j
spandrels ate suggestive of machinery I
and the science of electricity. Clever
designs in cog wheels are seen about j
the cornices and an heruio figure piece i
of "Man Controlling the Forces of Na-1
tu re" is placed above tho spacious en-j
trance. Tho first group shows "tho,
struggle," and an immense American!
lion is seen fiercely wrestling with two,
female figures of colossal size. The
second group shows "tho victory," tho
upright figure of man, triumphant, one,
foot testing on tho prone figure of the ,
defeated enemy, while tho third and
largest group which will occupy the
central position immediately over tho
entrance typified "The Supremacy
of Mau" for here in an immense
chariot is the triumphaut victor, driv
ing witli reins drawn taut, his now
docile and obedient steeds five great
lions. Tho figures are all full of
erength and life and promise to form a
fitting adornment for a beautiful build
ing. Tho decorations which will enhance
the agticultural building are not less
attractive. This great building is, in
its immensity a fit gamer house for
this, tho granary of tho world. It is
finished in ivory, but garlands of flowers
and festoons of cereals are thrown into
bold relief by being finished in their
natural hues. Medallion ornamnts of
barnyard fowls are placed at intervals,
while larger medallions of our nation's
representative bird tho eagle will
also appear in connection with tho or
namentation. On either sido of tlio
great main entrance are figures taken
from Millet's famous paintings, the

a cone to

decorated haso for a fliiKBtaft. Tho
outer row of domo columns ia detached
and tho entablature is tuoken around
them at the base, of tho domo, and over
each column ia a statim and twileslnl
havina as a backcrouud tho stvlohalo
of tho domo. This trniitmunt is v..r
monumental in effect, and while in
good tasto ami harmonious with tho
architectural style it is at the saute
timo original and interesting. Over
the d jorway leading from this vestibule
into the building are three large panels
between the pilasters to receive paint-
lugs which will bo emblematical of tho
ately above the gtand doorway is an
immense panel decorated with a gigan
tic bull's bead, gracefully festooned on
either side with the fruits of all sea
sons. The cential figure crowning the
whole composition will represent
"Prosperity" supported by the figures
of "Labor" and "Industry." These
are colossal groups of statuary and will
fittingly adorn this beautiful building.
One of the best and most striking
statues which has been designed for tho
exposition is the figure of "Fame,"
which will he repeated about nine times
in tlie decoration of the Art building.
It is the winged draped figure of a
woman, a palm branch in each out
stretched hand, with something divine
ly free and full of life in the erect fig
ure and upturned face. The art build
ing, which is well nigh finished, will
be one of the most artistio on the
grounds, and ierhaps one of tho best in
its adaptability to its piirise, that has
ever been constructed. It is in the
form of two li reek crosses, joined, with
a court between. The galleries which
run around the interior of these twin
buildings afford uneqnaled facilitites
for gaining the requisite amount of
light ami shade. One of these build
ings will be devoted to the oil paint
ings, while the other will contain the
water colors, black and whites, prints,
etc. No picture will be hung higher
than 10 feet. In the court will bo
found replica of the most famous statu
ary, ancient and modern. At tho bases
of the flagstaffs groups of cupids and
eagles uro seen, while a figured frieze,
five feet high, which surrounds the
building, will add to its uiiiquo bctuty
by Iming artistically colored.
Ono of the daintiest and most beau
tiful acrhitcctural conceits on tho
grounds is the administration build
ing, with its slender pinnacle and
graceful arch. It is decorated with
symbolic statuary and forms ono of tho
most beautiful pictures iu tho main
tract. Immediately across the lake is
the arch of the states, tho grand cen
tral entrance to the grounds. This is
composed of 24 successive layers of
Btone, each course representing somo
trims-Mississippi state or territory.
Above the inch appears a scries of stone
tablets upon which are pictured the
coats-of-arniB of tho 33 states in col
ored faienco.
The Zolnuv fountain, which will bo
situated in the lake which widens into
trefoil am) is well culled "The Mir
ror," with tlio great government build
ings in front, the sweeping colonnades
encircling it on either side, and tho
gushing fountain in the center will
form one of the prettiest bits of scenic
effect on tho grounds.
The numerous colonnades which con
nect the buildings is a feature both or
iginal and artistic They will form
one almost continuous shaded walk,
where one may niako tho entiro round
of the principal buildings and yet be
sheltered from the rays of the sun.
The color scheme, too, is an unusual
feature which should not be overlooked
when discussing tho exterior docora
tion. While the general tone of the
buildings will be that of old ivory, it
is the intention to finish one-third the
height of the colonnades as well as
about the cornices, doorways and win
dowsin full Pompeiian colors.
There will be other novelties in in
finite variety and, altogether, they
promise to make the Trans-Mississippi
Exposition one of the most beautiful
and attractive that has ever been held
anywhere. ELSIE KEASONEK.
A distinct novelty will be the Wine
Cascade, a perfect reproduction in mini
ature of Niagara Falls. The- base
work, including the rocks, Goat Island
and the Three Sisters, will be done in
glass, over and alsjut which will sweep
an unceasing flow of California wine.
The precious liquid will be conserved
in the gorge below, and automatically
and secretly it will be returned to the
fountain head to do duty again. An
other reproduction of nature will bo
that of Old Faithful, the big geyser
in Yellowstone Park. The cost is es
timated at f 30,000.
As you cross the viaduct which con
nects the Main and Bluff tracts, the
first of the villages to catch your eye!
will be the Moorish. With its pictur
esque group of domes, minarets, pin-!
nacles, and vari-oolored streamers, its
appearance is most inviting, smre mo

The Prototype of Itrginns Infernal to lie
Shown on the Midway. :
When tho conversation turns upon
tho Trans-Mississippi Exposition, some
one is sure to ask, "And will there be
a Midway?" ami then reminiscences
will bo the order of the hour, anl again
you will see the red fezes 'of the
Tutks, the bewitching smilo of tho
Parisian coquette, the haughty ' g I nice
from the dark-eyed houri of the Orient,
tho seductive dances of the Spanish
senoiltas, tliu slow revolving of tho
I massive Ferris wheel, tho little nooks
from the other corners of tho earth, tho
I swaying, sleepy camels w ith their
j loads of laughing, living freight, tho
queer meals with egg-shell ohinit and
chop-sticks served by a shy, dainty bit
of Occidental beauty; again you can
! hear the musical snugs of unknown
tongues the monotonous chant of cer
emonies iu strange religions, the lusty
call of tho "Orangeade" hoy, tho entic
ing shouts of the fakirs, tho growling
of savage beasts whose tricks aro almost
human, the hum of thousands of
voices, the laughter from thousands of
throats and all the rest that Went to
make up that ever-changing kaleido
scope of strange voices, strange people
and strange Bights. We had never
thought to see its like again, but, af
ter all, there was nothing that could
not be duplicated and, if one may judge
from the extensive preparations that
are under way, wo shall see in Omaha,
not only a leproduotion of the most iu
teresting features of the Midway, but
many novel ones nnd breathe il gently
minus the humbug and fake features
which were at once the bane and tho
characteristic of the Midway I'laisance,
If one has any curiosity as to their
ultimate destination after this life
they have but to enter a novel building
which represents ono of the Egyptian
pyramids and is called "Night ami
Morning." This building is 140 feet
square and 100 feet high, and in this
space there is warranted to be crowded
sufficient celestial joys ami awful ter
rors as to niako a trip through it one to
ho never forgotten. On entering, ono
is immediately lost in a labyrinth
which represents tho journey of life
from the cradle to the grave, and
whether ono walks quietly along
through pleasant paths with delightful
views, or becomes lost in dark byways
in the midst of terrible scenes, depends
entirely upon chance. When at hist he
has reached the end of the labyrinth he
is confronted by a winding flight of
golden stuirs, which will lead him
straight to tho Klysian fields, and on
his left lie will Bee an elevator which
plunges him down to the lower regions.
It will be a Bafo guess to reason that
the visitor will take tho elevator (list,
ami after descending 200 feet he will
find himself in an exact duplicate ol
Dante's Inferno, with all of Dore's hor
rible pictures realistically reproduced.
In the cafe he will rlml ooftlns trans
formed into tables, widows and orphans
iu gloomy weeds who uro enacting the
parts of waitresses, tho menus printod
in white on black curds, and till the
symbolic gloominess that goes to make
up the infernal regions. If, on the
other hand, the visitor prefers a
"Heavenly" meal, ho lias but to
ascend the golden stairs, to be ushered
into a beautiful room, hung with sutin
dratieries of white rose color, to find
tho tables of golden harps, the wait
resses whito rohed angels with wings
aud eveiything lovely.

SPAIN WILL 8UFFER.
Eaststiri's Traposat to Perlare Coal
untrahand Suits I'nela Sain.
New York, April 20, In directing
her colonies to regard coal as contia-
hand of war in the event of hostilities
between the Unitiil Stales and Spain,
Great Urltain lias taken action, Ameri
can official say, In line with the
wishes of the president ami naval au
thorities, says tho Washington cor re
fHindcnl of the Herald. Pressure will
be exerted npon France, llayli and
San Domingo to accomplish tho same
result, ami soma attention Is being
given by the state depaitmeut to South
American countues, with a view of se
eming a contraband character of coal,
as well as an announced determination
oil their part not to sell either to
Spanish or American men-of-war a
supply of fuel greater than necessary
to enable the belligerent vessels to
steam to tho next home port.
K far a the Danish West Indies are
concerned, tho authorities have pur
chased, In their icports, all the coal
that is possible to secure. With coal
a declared contraband of war, adminis
tration officials and naval experts say
it will be impossible for Spanish ves
sels to operate In the West Indies or
In the Pacific, and as a result the
chances o( success for American aims
would bo immeasurably enhanced.
Great Oritian's declaration of the
contraband ohuractcr of coal will affect
the United States at only ono point in
the far East. Tho 1'uitcd States now
has at Hong Kong six vessels, the
cruisers Baltimore, Olympiit, Italeigh,
and Boston and gunboats Concord and
Petrel and these ships are awaiting
the word to rush to Manila.
If tho fortifications of the Philip
pine should stand off tho American
fleet for any timo, tho Oierationso( tho
vessels would bo greatly embarrassed,
for by England's declaration, her col
onies will be only allowed to sell to
cither belligerent a supply only suffi
cient to take him to his home xirt.
Appreciating the position assumed
by tlio litilish government, Com
mander Dewey, acting under instruc
tions from Secretary Long, has pur
chased a large quantity of coal and has
stored It on boa id two colliers, which
will accompany his fleet to the Philip
pines. Extended operations would ne
cessitate a renewal of tho supply, and
tho oentrul position of Hawaii is
pointed to by naval experts who want
it for a naval base. Hawaii is 4,000
miles from the Philippines. Her posi
tion In the family of nations would
compel her to observe strict neutrality,
and not favor ono belligerent more
than another, but her annexation, it ia
pointed out, would result in placing
supplies for tho Asiatic squadron 2,
000 miles nearer to the vessels than
would be the case If coal, munitions of
war, eto., had to hn shipped from the
United States. It ia also pointed out
that Hawaii will find it necessary to
sell coal to a Spanish vessel in at Hon
olulu Mifllclcnt to take it a portion of
the way to its next homo Kirt, just as
she would sell to any American ship.
In the event that coal Is declared
contraband by France, San Domingo
and llaytl, authorities say it would be
iuivossilile for Spanish vessels to secure
coal in tho West Indies.
