JNO. T. BATTLE,
Office 1 Room 8, Provident Building.
The Dairy building is 95x200, two
stories high and cost 830,000.
There are 400 separate and distinct
buildings on the grounds, exclusive of
the booths.
Fifteen thousand people may be
seated in the amphitheater of the Live
Stock pavilion.
The restaurants'on the world’s fair
grounds have a seating capacity of
80,000 people.
In the Fine Arts building are 145,872
square feet of wall space hung with
paintings and works of art.
The first Columbian half-dollar, for
which $10,000 was paid, is on exhibition
in the Manufactures building.
The California building has been
formally tendered to the ethnological
exhibit as a permanent storehouse.
The Woman’s building is 199x388
feet, has a floor area of 3.3 acres and
cost $138,000. Miss Sophia B. Hayden,
of Boston, is the architect.
The Forestry building is 200x500 feet
in dimension, with architecture of the
rustic order. A series of columns is |
composed of tree trunks, each twenty-five
feet in length. The seyeral states
and territories of the union furnished
specimens of their most characteristic
trees.
The people of Louisiana-who have
visited the world’s fair and have gon8 ;
hack home with their stories of its
wonders have evidently stirred public
sentiment to a high pitch. The cham-her
of commerce and industry of that
state has seen fit publicly to urge every
citizen in the state who can do so to
visit the fair.
The exposition company will ask
congress to redeem such souvenir
coins as are not sold and hold them in
reserve to prevent them getting into
circulation. The object is to protect
those who purchase the coins for $1
each. After the demand for them is
all over they expect those held in re-serve
to be reminted into ordinary
money.
The Horticultural building is 1,000
feet long with an extreme width of
250 feet. The plan is a central pavilion
with two end pavilions. There are two
interior courts each 88x270. The center
of the pavilion is roofed by a crystal
dome 187 feet in diameter by 113 feet
high. The cost of the building was
$300,000. The architect is W. L. B.
Jenney, of Chicago.
The Transportation building cost
$300,000. The cupola, placed exactly in
the center of the building, rises 165
feet above the ground and is reached
by eight elevators. The main building
measures 960x250 feet, not including
the one-story annex covering about
nine acres. There are three general
divisions of exhibits in the building,
railway, marine and vehicle.
“THE WHITE CITY."
It Owes Its Name to the Unlimited Em-ployment
of Staff.
Much of the material used in the ex-terior
of the great buildings at the
world’s fair, and especially of the col-umns,
pediments and statuary, which
forms so extensive a part of the deco-rative
detail of that great show, is a
very cheap, snow-white, tough and
fireproof composition, called “staff.”
Plaster of paris, to which a little
cement is added, and fibers of sisal
grass, hemp or jute, are the chief in-gredients.
The mixture is prepared so
as to have a consistency of molasses;
and it may then be molded in any
shape desired. After it sets, the boards
or other pieces may he sawn, nailed
and bent almost at will; and the requi-site
firmness is acquired in less than
an hour. It is staff that forms the
covering of most of the large buildings,
and thus helps in a very important de-gree
to create “the White City.” Most
of the statues are first molded in clay,
and then covered with staff. To re-produce
these vast structures and
works of art in the marble thus simu-lated
would cost twenty or thirty times
as much as this did.
