The Illaposition •site is an excellent one and ineludes lhilnY neves of beautiful park lands. It would be difficult though foe 0 stran- . ger to distinguish the division line, So perfect is the blending of the parts., There is 8 wealth of foliage and hund- reds of beds of lovely flowers, hater- speised with grassy glades and gravel- led walks. The buildings, of which there are some twenty very large ones for exhibits, and about one hundred smell pries, ihelading state and foreign bitildings, midway show buildings, etc., are radiant with color. This is 0. dis- tinct, departure froin the custom which obtained with the earliest expositions aud bas been followed up to this time. At nearly all the expositions the build- ings have been white. The idea of the color schemes for expositions is not a THE ELECTRIC TOWER. new one. It has been attempted a 'number of times and as often abandon- ed. The variety of colors add wonder- ous beauty to the scenes and relieves the eye of that strain which sailed white walls gave. In the midst of these buildings is a tower 410 feet high most beautiful in design and graceful in proportions. This is the electric toWer, pictures and descriptions • of which have made many thousands of people eager to visit the Exposition. Every visitor pauses in wonder and ad- miration before thissplendid structure. Feom a niche in the face of the tower pours a great volume of water which is broken into spray by a delleetor,and falls upon broad ledges from which it flows into an humense basin, in which are several fountains, jets of which rise to a great height. By day here the scene is grand and inspiring. By night with hundreds of thousands of incandescent lights, and min3erous search lights illuminate the tower and its surroundings, the grandeur and in- spiration are increased. a thousand- fold. It is a pieture that must linger forever in the memory. The imagina- tion is too feeble to conjure up a true picture of the scene. But the brilliant day and night scenes are not confined to the electric tower and its basin. One has to but turn half around to view another splendid sight in the Court of Fountains, with its profusion of sculp- ture and fountains. Nothing excelling this picture has ever been created by man for the pleasure of his fellows. The framing is supberb, the great structures on all sides being aglow CORNER OF THE STADIUM.

Elevators 'run to a landing 270 feet above the ground from which there is a grand outlook, the vision having a wide range for many miles around Of the entire Niagara Frontier. Visitors who have the time can put in several clays pleasantly and profitably viewing the exhibits in the various buildings. The display in the Electric- ity Building is far ahead of anything ever seen before. The reader will be- gin to feel something like appreciation when it is stated that the eleetrical display is up-to-date in every particu- lar. In the last decade there have been remarkable strides in this important field and all the wonderful inventions are shown here. The ordnance exhibit is another feature which is far super- ior to anything of the kind ever before provided by an exposition. The dis- play of big guns by the United States Government is'commariding the won- der and admiration of every visitor. Thousands are constantly looking at the monster weapons and watching with,interestthe illustrations of hand- ling them in actual wax -fare, which are given by detactenents of inen from the Government service, The cornmexcial ordnance exhibit in another part of the roun ds is also partieularly in terestin Itis contained in two hninense buil - ings and a turret. Heretofore ordn- ance display have been tinimpOrtant features of Expositions 00 account of the scarcity of exhibits, but the late wars beonght forth many great in - N Yelut STATE striLniNct. ventions. One of the most pietaresque parts of the 'Exposition is the Court of State and Foreign lmildings, The Ca- nadien building is an attractive one, but is somewhat hidden from view be- hind the Agricultural building. It is adjacent to the dairy building and alongside the far end of the Stadlum. Many of the States and foreign repub- lics,. have me gnificent buildings, but none coetain a more interesting or tastefully decorated interior than that of Canada. All of them are used ae headquarters for visitors from the States and countries by which they were °reined, 10c1 a few contain ex- hibits. The admission to the ground is 50 cents for adults and 25c. for child - Yeti. One may enter the gates at o'clock in the morning and remain un- til almost any hour at night and der- ing the time he cen look at all the wonderful exhibits, see the sports in the Stadirun, hear concerts by the best bands in the w oriel and organ recitals by America's greatest organists, play- ing upon ft magnificent organ which, cost $15,000, in the Temple of Music which is declared by all who haye at- tended the world's gYeat fairs to be the most beautiful building ever erec- ted for Exposition poypieses, and at night witness en illumination, the ex- tent and beauty of which were never before contemplated. For this grand display 5000 horse power electricity is' received at the Exposition by cable from the great power plent at Niagara Falls. Visitors to the Exposition can secure accommodation at hotels and private residences at reasonable rates. .As in every other large city there are hotels in Buffalo which charge high rates for-accommodatiop, but of course the visitor can pass them )3y. There are plenty of excellent places where the stranger, who is to remain only a few days, can get a room for about $1 a day, meals extra. In and out of the grounds there are different kinds of restaurants, some, having high and others low prices. The visitor can --- TEmpLI OF HvAlt-hican i'maraTa (tom matiogvus. PAN-AMERICAN EXP0.51TIoN TEMPLE OF make his own choice. The writer and the rest of the party, composed of Dr. R,ollins, Mr. E. O. Jones (Clandeboye) and Mr. A. Hastings, took lodgings at the Fillmore House, Corner Michigan and Carroll streets, a splendid ap- pointed hotel, with comfortable rooms and good meals, at $2 a day. It is located within a short distance of the depot and in going to the Exposi- tion oee has only to step across the street, board a car and you are landed at the grounds for five cents. The traffic on the Michigan street cars are less than a great many of the other streets, hence they are less liable to he crowded, either in going or return- ing. Before closing my remarks I might just state that as there are sev- enty five separate and distinct shows it is well-nigh impossible for a visitor to see them all and give any time to the industrial features of the Exposi- tion. Mostpeople will be satisfied to see twelve or fifteen of the best, and in order to assist intending visitors we give the following which are consider- ed the leading features of midway and well worth the price of admission: - A Trip to the Moon -50c; Bostock's Trained Animals-25e;Darkness and Dawn -25c; Hawaiian Village and Theatre -25c; streets of eMexico-1O; Philippine Village -25c; Streets of Ven- ice and Theatre--35c;Infa.nt Incubators -250; Indian Congress -25c; Cleopatra --10c: Johnstown Flood -25c; Land of theiNfidnight Sun -25c. C.H.S. Granton: The barns and outbuild- ings on the farm of William Brown, near Granton, which is Tented by John Fulton; were burned to the ground Thursday night. It was threshing day at Mr. Fulton's and the men were - at sapper when the fire started. The contents of the barn, including nearly all the season's erop, 11 pulffr and a threshing separator, belonging to Ro- bert Knowles, were all destroyed. Eighteen pigs were also burned, but the horses were save -d. The origin ot the fire is unknown. Seaforth: On Friday while Mr. Ed. Dawson was away from his liquor store, at dinner, the store was entered arid $4.50 taken from the till. Immedi- ately on his return Mr. Davveonneissed the money and notified Constable Gil- lespie.
