PAGE SIX. ASTORIA, OREGON, TUESDAY, OCTOBER IS. ARE BEYOND DESCRIPTION Our World's Fair Visitors Arc Speechless With Admiration of the Waterfalls. SCENIC EFFECTS MARVELOUS Our Itegular Exposition t'orros purulent TcIN How the Crowd Is Afiecteri by the Fair s. Wonders. St Louis, Oct. 16. Tour readers have no doubt noticed that I have said nothing about the wonderful spectacle) produced by the night Illumination, I the cascades, the lagoons and the gar-1 dens." I have not attempted a descrip-i tlon of this, the most impressively beautiful feature of the exposition be cause it is indescribable. Xo. words that I am ab'e to command could convey any conception of the dazxllng beauty and magnificence of this spec tacle. What's the use of trying to draw a "word picture" of this spectacle when you haven't the words to do It with and when the artists themselves cannot depict its glories or transfer its color and motion to canvas? Jane has used her kodak industri ously and baa taken pictures of it from every conceivable point of view but these "snap shots," be they ever so beautiful, are flat, lifeless and color' less things compared to the real spec' tacle. It is the only thing at the fair that makes John speechless. He Is wil ling to talk and write about everything else but when the thousands of electric lights are turned on and the water be gins to rush down from the sculptured grotto in front of Festival hall and goes splashing in cascades down to the Grand Basin, he aits In a dated condition and views it in silent awe Just like everybody else does. .This fair was not built on a flat, boggy marsh as was the Chicago fair. It is true that it has no lake for a background but it has picturesque, wooded hills and ravines and these have made possible landscapes, foun tain and cascades effects more beau tiful than anything that could be pro duced on a prairie such as Chicago used In building her fair. So far as water is concerned St. Louis didn't ' need the lake to produce these match less water effects that constitute the main picture of the fair. Ninety thousand gallons a minute go tumb ling down the three cacades, and there are two miles of lagoons over which launches and gondolas are constantly gliding. There are four hills which the ex position builders utilized to the highest artistic advantage. On one of these is the United States government building, on another the Japanese gar dens and pavilions while the two cen tral prominences with the connecting ridge, form the cascade effect. At the center of this ridge Is Festival hall, a noble collonade forming the Terrace of states, each terminating In a large pa vilion. The side cascades have their sources in fountains In the centers of large basins in front of each pavilion while the central cascade flows from a high grotto In front of Festival hall. These torrents of water rushing over Illuminated steps at night look like stairways of molten gold and green stretching away to the summit of the sculpture-crowned hill between gar dens of red and yellow canna s and sputtering geysers and spouting dol phins and But I said I would not attempt to describe this spectacle and I will not All that the crowd can say when it first bursts upon Its vision is "Aw!" and Aw's" all day long until late at night. Better to dp like John apd say noth ing. After John looks at it for an hour be wants to go over and watch them feed beavers In the Forestry building so as to realize that he Is still on earth. T. A. D. ceedod to say that he had always heard the most nattering reports of the California climate, fruit, roses nnd sunshine, and was not. therefore, sur prised at the magnificent sights in those lines that had met his gase. but his surprise was that the most marvel- : lous and bewitching beauty of Call i forniu women, which had overwhelmed him at every turn, had not been given more extensive publicity. He could now easily understand why men from every country on the globe Mocked to California, but from what he had seen of the California men he failed to understand why the women of that state didn't emigrate to Ore gon en masse, and at once, Of course, this sally put him on a good footing with als audleuce or a part of It, at the start, and he felt quite well satisfied with the Impres sion he thought he had made, until while leaving the hall he overheard a woman remark that "if he was a sample she didn't see. that Oregon men had anything to boast of!" The point to the Joke Is, that being too good to keep, Charley told his speaking companions of it, and from there to Cheyenne he was kept busy In his waking moments defending the physiognomical characteristics of the voting population of his adopted state.

"Dock" Lewis, once a well-known physician, now a hopeless wreck from the use of cocaine morphine and opium, is a prisoner In the city jail, charged as a common vagrant. The case Is one of the most pltable with which the police have had to deal in years. Lewis has kept out of Jail for several months, but j before that had been arrested a number of times. A few years ago Lewis was a practi cing physician and stood high in his profession. He became addicted to the use of drugs, well knowing their terri ble effects. Step by step he went down the ladder until he mingled with the lowest class of morphine users. The ex-physician was arrested yes terday in the restricted district When found by Patrolman Mayou he waswet, cold and almost dead, but begging for morphine. He will prob ably be charged with vagrancy under the state law and given a long term in the county jail. UP TO ENGLAND AND AMERICA. Can Prevent War If Strong In Armies And Navies. New York, Oct. 17.
