Fpeclil Coirtspondrnee to The Tribune.
Ruffalo. X. V June 20.
AS HAS been Intimated before In
these comments, theie ate people
who say that anybody can do the
Pan-Ameilcnn In thiee dns. I have
henid n few who assert It to he their
hellef that one day Is nil that Is neces
saiy for the entlie show. Of couise,
theie ate those, too, who consider
thiee weeks nmple time In which to
see nil Km ope. One can "see" 2,000
people In nn audience In the space
of half a minute. One can look nt a
glass of water alleged to contain
thiee million microbes to the square
inch in a second. One can "see" a
Held of a bundled acres, or a foiest
of many thousand trees, without con
suming nny extended time.
The tittth of the matter Is this, if
one has only time and money enough
to allow but a single day nt the e
posltlo. a great deal can be seen In
that day. The grounds aie open from
S a. in. to 10 B0 p. m. From 8 until
fi a general suivoy of the buildings
and their surioundlngs can be taken.
Of couise, theie Is no time for de
tails. One must not pause to study the
nllegoilcal meaning of the magnificent
gioups of statuary or to gain any in
foimatlon logaidlng the newer til
umphs of the mechanical arts, or road
the Interesting Inscilption on the w nu
clei fill collections In the Rthnologlcal
building One can not take an hour
of quiet iest In the splendid Temple
of Music while listening to some
world-famed oiganlst, nor stay to
watch the gloilous sunset effects at
evening behind the Oriental skv line;
nor drink In the beauty of the city.
One could scnieely c.ury awav a soli
tary Impiesslon of the contents of
the Ait galleiv, wheie the unfinished
catalogue lists !; picttnes, these
compiling only a part of the exhibit
and Including none of the sculpture
nor the Canadian paintings, nor the
superb collection or original diawings
and mlnlatuies.
After 6 o'dock in the evening the
Government building Is closed and the
exhibits In most other places are un
attended. The evenings ate cxclusivo
1 devoted to gazing at the illumina
tions, listening to Sousa oi visiting the
Midway Tho pel son who can see the
whole exposition in one day can piob
ably describe the Midway with moie
accuincy and detail than anything
else.
Theie aie seven gieat entrances. The
view fiom eacli is diffeicntlv beautiful.

A tiansfor via the Foiest avenue line
takes jou to Lincoln Pnikway gate
it the Peimanent Mililaiy camp, and
leading thiotigh. this magnificent paik,
wheie the dense shade of gtoat old
foiest tiees and the blue gleam of the
lake with its swans, its lotus blossoms,
Its secluded walks and drives, have for
jeais been a featuie of Buffalo This
nlo lends the wav acioss the beautiful
biidgo at the light of which is the
government life saving station and ex
hibit, to the noble Appioach nnd Poie
Couit, sepmated fiom the ginnd Us
planade bv that innncle of genius and
inspliation, the Tiiumph.il Bi Idge to
me the most wondeiful featuie of the
exposition
It is difficult to spe how one can gaze
without a tin ill, fiom any point of
view, upon these four colossal columns,
lising hundieds of feet on their mas
sive foundations, and sin mounted by
these supei h hnises that l eating on the
dizzv height bear theli ildeis almost
as living gods of battle. The Meadow
gate opens neaiest to the Ait Gallery,
which Is far, fai away fiom the contio
of civilization on tho Midway.
The Water Gate is at the cxtiemo
lower coiner ot the Paik Lake. Tne
Rast Amheist Gate opens diiectly into
the place of the live stock exhibits and
thenea to the Mall, s-ep.uating the
splendid building occupied by Agiicul
tuio and the Manuft'ctuies and Lihoial
Ai ts.
The Xew Voik Cential and Hudson
Rive," mllioad teimlnnl is, at the noith
ci ii cnti nice, wheie the ci.iving Piopy
Inea, with its majestic columns, guaids
the Plaza and its wondeiful Sunken
Ua i dons.
These many tjolonnailcs ahout the
giounds add the gieatest possible
chfiini to the geneial effect, the niches
nie tilled with gleaming white statues
and tho plllais will soon he vvioathed
with vines This loveliness ot veiduie
is a distinct feature of the Pan-Amuii-can,
ah compared with all the exposi
tions hitheito hold in Ameika. The
lakes aie ilmmed with iiis and water
plants. The lose guldens are masses
of bloom, the nnangeinent being chlell
ly in solid coiois. A large plot of ground
Is devoted to Mexican plants, the cacti
family being piofusely lepresented.
There ate so many buildings to ha
visited, if one leally cares for the in
foimation and knowledge which can be
obtained. Among these aio the Clec
tilc Tower, tho L'lectilolty Building,
the Manufdotutes and Llheial Aits, the
Maclitneiy and Ttanspoitatlon, the Ag
iicultui.il, Iloitlcultute, Mines, Temple
of Music, Giaphic Aits and Woikship,
Ktmology, Women's Building, .Stadium,
Ordnance, Acetylene, Gov eminent Build
ingbesides the inuny bt.Ue buildings
and those devoted to tho South Ameil
cun inteiests. Then, ot emu so, tho Ait
Galleiy needs consideiahlo study, If one
Is to gain an adequato Idea of tho vv oiks
by Ameilcan aitlsLs, All of these, It
should bo undei stood, may bo lsltcd
fico of chutge,
The Midway contains enough of the
unusual In the veiy fctiects to fascin
ate the visitor at ull times, The people
of many nations, the queer animals
nnd vehicles, the htiange noises and
the kaleidoscope of coloi aie a. con
statu souice of amusement,
I have been asked to give some idea,
as to tho expense of seeing eveiythlng
woith while in tho Midway and will
give a bchedulo of tho attractions and
juices tomoiiow.
The moio one sees of Buffalo thu
mote one Is lmpie.ssed with the fact
that It Is a city "sans hack ards,"
Theio aie literally no snidld hiinound
lugs in the gieat lesidenco section of
the beautiful city. The houses aio con
stiucted on lots which aie adequate In
size and they aio at onie beautified by
lose gardens, vines and tasteful ar
rangement of bhiubbeiy. The veiandis
an- fitted up as dainty bummer pallets,
with handsome awnings, hammocks,
tugs, divans, wicker fuinituie and tich
screens of palms and feins. The homes
of Buffalo aie mtrely made to he a. Joy
foi ever, at least In the summer, white
with the fnlrv of natittal gas Iiom eel

linppv a lot to live there in the long,

And pull the ancient wagon when pap'd go to

No flre: of wild ambition were surging in her

Her even with lender pawion fhe'd never upward

The wondrous world fhe'd heard of to her wa

As walked she in the furrows behind that lop

Born on tint small ptintitlon, 'twas there she
thought she'd die.
She never longer foi pinions that she might rise
and flv
To other lands far distant where breezes fresh and

Would never shake and tremble from braj-ings
of a mule.

The voire tlut once admonir-hed the mul03 to

earn the best college education without a great amount of effort,
and it is an opportunity that may never be repeated. The Trib
une may find the returns much less than the expense and would
then be unable to again make such generous offers. Such a con
dition will be The Tribune's loss and the contestants' gain.
There are many young men, and young women, too, who
would be glad of an opportunity to "work their way through col
lege," in fact, the presidents of these institutions are deluged with
applications for chances of this kind. Here the work for an entire
course of four years can all be accomplished in three short months,
and an education that would cost in cash $1,000 is assured with
out further outlay. Patents should urge their boys and girls to
enter the contest and work for one of the special rewards. One
of the eight is within the reach of everyone who really tries.
Send a letter to The Tribune for full particulars, including
handsomely illustrated booklet. Address,
