Exhibit.
The United States Government build-
ing -at the World's .Falr occupies an
elevated site just south of the main
picture of the Exposition. The great
central dome of the Government build-
ing is visible from the very center of
the Fair, looking across the picturesque
sunken garden that lies between the
Palaces of Mines and Metallurgy and
Liberal Arts.
The hill slope in front of the Gov-
ernment building is terraced with
broad stairways almost completely
covering the slope. The building is 800
feet long by 250 feet wide and is the
largest structure ever provided at an
exposition by the federal government.
It is distingujshed from all the other
large buildings at the Exposition by
the steel truss construction, the entire
roof being supported by steel arches,
forming a splendid domed ceiling.
In this building are installed the ex-
hibits of all the executive departments
of the government. The building is a
vast storehouse of an endless variety
of treasures dear to the heart of every
true American. Precious documents
are to be seen here, and the autographs
display.
and soldiers, carefully preserved
through generations, are exhibited.
Each governmental department has in-
stalled an exhibit showing its official
character and mode of operation.
Entering the Government building
from the eastern end, the visitor sees
at his left a railroad postoffice car.
This is not a mere coach standing idle,
LOUISIANA PURCHASE MONUMENT, WORLD'S
FAIR.
but i@ one of the most improved mail
ears, in which men attached to the
United States railway mail service are
aetively engaged in “throwing” the
mails. Here you .will see the postal
clerks at work, just as they work while
speeding along a railroad track.
A curious collection of old time rel-
ics from the postofice museum at
Washington illustrates as no verbal
description cam do the crude begin-
nings of the postal system. One of
these relics is an old fashioned stage-
coach that once carried United States
mails through a portion of the Louisi-
ana purchase territory. President
Roosevelt, who once inspected it, ex-
amined with a rough rider’s interest
the bullet holes which stage robbers
and mountsin brigands shot through
its stiff leathern curtains. Generals
| Sherman and Sheridan and President
Garfield rode in this old coach during
i the strenuous days of frontier life.
Among the collection of documents
, showing the primitive postal methods
| In vogue in the early days is to be
seen the old book of accounts kept by
the first postmaster general, Benjamin
Franklin, all. written by hand. There
is a rare collection of stamps, includ-
ing ancient Filipino, Porte Rican and
Cuban stamps. The postoffice depart-
ment’s exhibit occupies 12,469 square
feet.
Across the aisle, at the right, is the
exhibit of the new Department of
Commerce and Labor, occupying 1,966
square feet. This exhibit shows what
the new executive department stands
for and what it is accomplishing. Mr.
Carroll D. Wright, United States Com-
missioner of Labor, had charge of the
preparation of the exhibit. Charts ar-
ranged by him, showing the rapid
growth of the nation in agriculture,
arts, manufacture, population, etec., are
of special interest to sociologists and
all students of the labor problem. The
Census frareau exhibit is made in this
section. It shows the tabulating ma-
chines used in compiling the census re-
ports. The Lighthouse Board, also op-
erating under this department, shows
the great revolving lenses
houses, with other interesting appli-
| ances.

mer Ellsworth Garnsey, furnish one
of the chief delights of a visit to the
national capital. A large model of this
splendid building. is a feature of-the
exhibit. The decorative features of
the interior are reproduced in their
original colors.
The next exhibit on the right hand
side of the central aisle is that of the
Interior Department, occupying 11,792
square feo?. In this large space the
visitor finds so many things of com-
pelling interest that he ia loath te
leave. The Patent Office exhibit be-
longs to this section. There are mod-
els of many machines that have borne
an important part in the development
of the nation’s industries. The earliest
form of every device of human inven-
tion. so far as possible, is shown here.
For instance, you may see the actual
sewing machine that was the first con-
trivance of its kind every constructed;
it was patented in 1846 by Elias Howe.
The’ first typewriter, patented by -C.
Thurber in 1842; the model of the first
cast iron plow, patented by Charles
Newbold in 1797; the first screw pro-
peller, ‘invented by Robert Hook In
1680; and many other “first” things
are to be seen. The model of Abraham
Lincoln’s celebrated device for lifting
steamboats off shoals is shown here.
The first harvesting machine, made in
the year 150 B. C., is one of the most
ancient exhibits at the Exposition.
There i3 also a model of the first steam
engine, made in Egypt in the same
year.
Bvery foot of the 200,000 feet of

CURIOUS THINGS FROM CHINA

exhibit show the homes and home life

funerals, Chinese tea house, restau-
rant and shop, Chinese weaving and
some of the beautiful silks and wear-
ing apparel of the Chinese and their
methods of manufaeturing them.
One feature of the exhibit is two
magnificent Chinese beds, each of
which has the appearance of being a
small house of great beauty. One is a
summer bed, the other for winter. The
summer bed is hand carved and inlaid
with ivory and bone figures and land-
scapes exquisitely carved and so
skillfully joined as to appear a part of
the wood. The bed and furniture are
of carved bamboo. The bed consists of
an anteroom, with tables, chairs and
tea stands, and in an inner room, which
is the sleeping apartment, there is a
couch with coverings of gauzy silks,
The winter bed is stil more elabo-
rate. It consists of three compartments.
The first contains four chairs, a tea poy
and a chest of drawers. This is the sit-
ting apartment. The second is the dress-
ing room, and the third is the sleep-
ing apartment, or the couch itself. The
furniture is of rosewood inlaid with
ivory carving of birds, flowers and
trees. The couch is covered with silks
of the finest texture and in gaudy col-
ors. The sleeping compartments are
lighted with Chinese lanterns of silk
hung at the outer entrance, while the
light enters through gauze panels, hand
painted :apd in forms of rosewood in-
laid with ivory figures.
A table and dish made of highly pol-
ished ash, with exquisitely carved
bamboo figures inlaid, are shown. The
work is so artistically done that each
article seems te have been made of
one piece of wood.
There is also a large display of Chi-
nese lanterns made of silk, gauze and
other light material ard some made of
beads artistically arranged with glass
centers. The silk and gauze are beau-
tifully hand painted.
There are models of some of the
great Chinese temples, theaters and
arches, showing elaborate carving in
wood and ivory and two large elephant
tusks exquisitely carved.
WHARFAGE FREE AT ST. LOUIS
Twenty Miles of River Front For Wa-
ter Craft at World's Fair City.
Free wharfage will be given to all
boats landing at St. Louis during the
World's Fair. Traffic Manag Hil-
leary of the Exposition and Joseph P.
Whyte, harbor and wharf commission-
er of St. Louis, have decided on the lo-
cations assigned to the various kinds
of boats.
Yachts, steam launches and all boats
propelled by their own power have
been assigned wharf space between
Choteau avenue and Biddle street.
These streets, running east and west,
form the boundary lines for the cen-
tral business district of the city.
House boats have been assigned
wharf space north of Biddle street
and south of Choteau avenue.
St. Louis has a river front of twen-
ty miles. The Broadway line of the
Transit company parallels the river
from the city limits on the north to
Jefferson Barracks on the south. At
no point are the cars more than five
blocks from the Mississippi river. The |
World's Fair may be reached for one |
fare by transferring to any of the
eight lines that cross Broadway and
reach the Exposition grounds.
No charge will be made for wharf
age. Application for space should be
made to the harbor and wharf com-
missioner at the City Hall, on Twelfth
street, between Market street amd
Clark avenue.
THE UNIVERSAL
EXPOSITION
The Achievements of Individuals and Na-
tlons Faithfafly Recorded by This
Eacyclopedia of Society.
By FREDERICK J. V. SKIFF, Direot-
or of Exhibits, World’s Fair.
“The wisdom of ail ages is none too
great for the world’s work.” In this
single salient sentence, uttered In his
famous address at Buffalo in Septem-
ber, 1901, President McKinley de-
scribed the object and the result of
expositions.
A modern universal exposition is a
.eollegtion of the wisdom and achieve-
metitsiof the world, for the inspection
of th¢.world, for the study of its ex-
perts,- by which they may make cum-
parisons and deduction and develop
plans for future improvements and
progress. Such a universal exposition
might well be called an eneyclopedia
of society. It constitutes a classified,
eompaet, indexed compendium of the
sehievements and ideas of society in
all phases of its activity, extending to
the most material as well as the most
refined. It offers illustrations cover-
ing the full field of social performance,
from the production of the shoes on
our feet and the pavement beneath
them to a presentation of the rarest
and most delicate creations of the
brains and hands of men in what are
called the fine arts of civilization.
The Universal Exposition in St. Lou-
is in 1904 will be such a social ency-
clopedia in the most comprehensive
and accurate sense. It will give to the
world in revised and complete details
“a living picture of the artistic and in-
dustrial development at which man-
kind has arrived” and will actually
provide “a new starting point from
which all men may direct future exer:
tions.” It will present for the inspec-
tion of specialists in all lines cf indus-
trial and sccial endeavor and for the
public an assembly cf the best which
the world has done and has to show in
industry, art and science, and, what
is very important, it will offer these
achievements of society, these trophies
of civilization, in a highly selected, ac-
curately classified array.
The creators of the St. Louis Exposi-
tion have had the experience of all
previous great expositions by which to
plan and effect its high organization.
The continuous and repeated burden of
the message of experience handed
down by all expositions has been more
perfect, more effective classification
and arrangement of exhibits.
The classification of the St. Louis
Exposition has been prepared to pre-
sent a sequential synopsis of the de-
velopments that have marked man’s
progress. On its bases will be as-
sembled the most highly organized ex-
position the world has yet seen.
The St. Louis classification is divided
into 16 departments, 144 groups and
807 classes. These grand departments
in their order will record what man
has accomplished at this time with his
faculties, industry and skill and the
natural resources at his command in
the environment in which he has been
placed.
At the ‘head of the Exposition clas-
sification has been placed Education,
through which man’ enters social life.
Second comes Art, showing the condi-
tion of his culture and development.
Liberal Arts and Applied Sciences are
placed third, to indicate the result of
his education and culture, illustrate his
tastes and demonstrate his inventive
genius, scientific attainment and artis-
tic expression. These three depart-
ments equip him for the battle and
prepare him for the enjoyments of life.
The raw material departments, Agri-
culture, Horticulture, Mining and For-
estry, show how man conserves the
forces of mature to his uses. The De-
partment of Manufactures will show
what he has done with them; the De-
partment of Machinery the tools he
hag used. The Department of Trans-
portation will show how he overcomes
distances and secures access to all
parts of the world. The Department
of Electricity will indicate the great
forces he has discovered and utilized to
convey power and intelligence. And so
through the several departments to
Anthropology, in which man studies
man; and to Social Economy, which
will illustrate the development of the
human race, how it has overcome the
difficulties of civilization and solved
problems in which soclety is involved.
Last is placed physical culture, in
which man, his
| York city,
intelligence having
reached the supreme point, is able to
treat. himself as an animal, realizing
that his intellectual and moral consti- |
tutions require a sound physical body |
to prompt them to the proper perform-
ance of their function.
Education is the keynote of the Uni-
versal Exposition of 1904. Each de-
partment of the world’s labor and de- |
velopment will be represented at St |
Louis, classified and tastalled in such
manner that a!l engaged or interested |
in such branch of activity may come
and see, examine, study and go away
advised. Each of the separate sections
of the Exposition will be an equivalent
of—or, rather, will be in actuality a
comprehensive and most effective ob-
ject lesson in—the line of industrial
and social achievement and progress |
which its presents.
Cost of Seeing the World's Fair.
From any point within 300 miles of
St. Louis a person may travel to the
World’s Fair this year, view the won-
ders of the Exposition for three days
and expend the same money he would
pay in any other year for train fare
alone. This is an absolute fact.
The Western Passenger Association
has agreed on a ten day excursion rate,
250 miles or more fr , Louis, for
one and one-fifth fare the round
trip.

ALL THE STATES AT
THE WORLD'S FAIR.
Many Beautiful Pavilions and Preten-
tloue Bulldinge Show Forth the
Entorprice of American
Cemmonwaealths.
A beautiful city has grown up among
the trees on the World's Fair grounds
at St. Louis. It has nothing to do with
the immense exhibit palaces, but is a
thing apart. The houses in this new
city are of various styles of architec-
ture. Some are palatial in size and ap-
pearance, while others look merely cozy
and inviting. Never before have so
many notable and historie buildings
been constructed in one group. This
new city might be called the City of
the States, for the houses included in it
are the state buildings at the Fair.
The city is not compact, but some-
what straggling, as befits the plctur-
esqueness of the view. Yet there is
nothing suggestive of a Stringtown-
on-the-Pike about this city, for the
grounds surrounding each of the houses
are beautified with gardens typical of
the state represented.
All the states are to be represented
at the World's Fair. This means a
great deal, a shining triumph for the
Louisiana Purchase IkKxposition, and
furnishes another illustration of the
fact that this Exposition’s complete-
ness is the marvel of the age.
Fifty-one states, territories and pos-
sessions of the United States have
taken the steps necessary to partici-
pate in the World’s Fair on an impor-
tant scale. But two states were still
outside the fold at the last report, and
in each of these was a well defined
movement in favor of being represent-
ed at the Fair with buildings and ex-
hibits. New Hampshire, the old home
state, and Delaware are the states re-
ferred to. In New Hampshire a fund
for participation is being raised pri-
vately by patriotic citizens, so that in
the event of legislative inaction this
commonwealth may be represented.
The states and territories are ex-
pending over $7,000,000 in their efforts
to show off to best advantage at the
Exposition. This is a million and a
third more than was expended at the
Chicago exposition by the states. In
addition to this, large cities in many
states will have municipal exhibits, the
funds for which are not included in
these figures. The municipal exhibit
idea i8 entirely novel. From a number
of the states there will be prominent
county exhibits provided by special ap-
propriation of county funds.
This City of the States presents a
plcture of surpassing beauty. Nature
has done much to aid In the creation
of the picture. Never before has any
exposition been able to grant such ad-
. vantageous sites for state buildings.
The buildings are situated on a plateau
about seventy-five feet higher than the
level ground to the north upon which
stand the main exhibit palaces. There
are hills and ravines here and there,
enabling the landsecapists to lay out a
most delightful pattern of roads and
terraces and lawns.
The smallest of the state buildings is
that of Arizona, whicli stands near the
southeastern entrance to the grounds,
One of the largest ie that of Missouri,
from the dome of which it is said that
perhaps the very finest view of the
Exposition may be enjoyed. This
building is a palace in the Italian re-
naissance architecture, built at a cost
of $105,000. Near by is the reproduc-
tion of the Cabildo at New Orleans, in
which the Louisiana Purchase transfer
ceromonies took place — Louisiana’s
state building. Ohio has a clubhouse
of highly ornate design, in the architec-
ture of the French renaissance. Illi-
nois is prominent with a most pre-
tentious structure, with wide verandas
and a commanding cupola.
A description of each of the state
buildings, with any detail, would more
than fill a newspaper page. It is only
possible here to hint at some of the
interesting structures. California, for
instance, has reproduced in exact size
the famous old La Rabida Mission.
Connecticut presents a replica of the
Sigourney residence at Hartford, home
of the poetess Lydia Huntley Sigour-
ney in ber time. This building is sald
to be the finest specimen of purely
colonial architecture now stunding.
The New Kentucky Home, from the
Blue Grass State, is a handsome club-
house that would make some of the
mansions along Fifth avenue, New
look insignificant. Beau-
voir, the quaint old house which Jef-
ferson Davis owned and occupied for
many years, is reproduced by Missis-
sippl. Its wide verandas or galleries
give it a most inviting appearance.
Washington’s headquarters at Morris-
town, N. J., are reproduced by New
Jersey. Virginia contributes Monti-
cello, the home of Thomas Jefferson.
The state of Washington contributes
r structure of unique design. It is
called the Wigwam, five stories
high, built of wood from Washington
forests. The building is octagonal,
with gigantic diagonal timbers rising
from the ground and meeting in an
apex ninety feet in the air, above
which is built an observatory, from
which a splendid view of the Exposi-
tion thay be had. An elevator will
carry visitors to the observatory.
New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Ar-
In-
and many
Wisconsin, Texas
| other states are represented by build-
ings which cannot fail to arouse ad-
miration. The Texas building is in
the shape of a five pointed star, an
appropriate idea for the big Lone
State. Iowa has a magnificent
mansion, with classic porticoes and a
Star
centr tower containing an observa-
tory chamber. Kansas, Indian
tory and Oklahoma each uphold the
growing reputation of the southwest
for enterprise and fertility of re-
sources
