Frlne Allxrt' Dealgn The New York "Palace, Bo Called The Three Great Pari Expoitlona Vienna In 1873 and i Melbourne In 1880 NUhnee NoTforod. Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha consort of Queen Victoria, was the originator of the modern international exposition or world's fair. . Other fairs there had been from a time before the Jbeginning of history, but the London Crystal, palace exposition of 1851 was the first of its kind and set the fashion. Prince- Albert alone originated the scheme. He drew np the first plan. His tact and popularity gradually won over 'an unwilling nation, secured the ap proval of the queen, and, what was of Souon more importance, of The Times and of Punch, and insured success. , , - AT IiONDON, lBUa. The world joined in that sincerest of all approval imitation. New York did fairly I well with her Crystal ; palace. Prance has had three really great and remarkable expositions. That of Vienna in 1873 was a success despite the finan cial convulsions of the year, and that at Melbourne in 1880 astonished the world not so much by the excellence of the dis play, indeed, but by the fact that Aus tralia could organize an exposition at alL The world knew in a general way that the population of Australia had for 80 years or so increased faster than that of any other country in the world, and that mining and manufacturing were carried on, but it was still a surprise to find a city almost as large and beautiful as Baltimore as far south of the equator as Baltimore : is north of it and making quite as fine an exhibit of native prod ucts.! i - ! ''.' r- ' Meanwhile, however, the great Cen tennial exposition of 1876 had been held at Philadelphia and eclipsed in many re spects all that went before it. General Joseph R. Hawley, as president of the commissioii, and Alfred T. Goshorn, as . director general of the work, had won lasting honor, and a basis of comparison had been made for all subsequent expo sitions in ; America, especially for the present Columbian exposition and the Louisiana acquisition centennial of 1903, ' which is now looked for as the next thing in order. ' A few figures will sufficiently present the basis for comparison. ' . The grounds of the centennial included 450 acres, and the ground floor proper of the main building covered 20 acres and a few square feet over. Machinery hall covered 12.83 acres, or, strictly speak ing, 558,440 square feet;' Agricultural Wl,.442,800; Memorial hall, 76,630, and Horticultural hall, 73,913. Now at Chi cago the Manufactures and Liberal Arts building covers 80 acres, and be sides its enormous galleries and i minor alcoves it has 10 acres of central floor space for , the general exposition. It is of course the, largest exposition build ing ever ; erected. The Agricultural building with its annex covers a fraction over 14 acres, and other structures are on a corresponding scale. It is of interest to compare both the foregoing sets of figures with the details of noted buildings in the old world. The ' . j ATVUESNA, 1873. Louvre, including its central court, cov ers 809,883 square feet (a fraction over seven acres); St. Peter's (at Borne), 273, 937; St. Paul's, 143,500; the Coliseum, 245,340; the Cathedral of Milan, 139,968; the Tuileries, 108,864, and the famous Notre Dame church at Paris, 66160. : It may assist the reader who "did not stay long abroad" to remember that the cap itol at Washington covers 261 ,348 square feet, and is, for this country, a very good basis for comparison. In Jackson . park the fair grounds cover 553 acres, and there are 80 acres additional used in the plaisance connecting with Washing ton park.- ) ;i I . !(.,. To repeat the details of an affair so well advertised as the present exposition, or of one so familiar in history as the centennial, would be indeed "chestnut- ty," but a few contrasts are really star tling. In the main building in 1876 over ,7,000,000 feet of lumber were used in the mere finishing, as the structure above the masonry was chiefly of iron and is, and the rolled iron roof trusses and girders weighed . over 5,000,000 pounds, i In the big building at Chicago 17,000,000 fee of lumber were used, five carloads of nails were used in fastening the flooring alone, the steel trusses in the central hall weighed 12.000.000 pounds, and' yet there is an open space in the center,' absolutely without col umns, 388 feet wide by 1,275 feet long. Although this is by far the greatest exposition ever held on this earth, it is jto be hoped that no enthusiast will fix j up for himself so bitter a disappointment as that suffered bv millions of hnmani- Wians after the- London show of 1851. To read the papers of that year raises a laugh soon followed by a sigh. All ports nf rwafA nrvMetfpn And minmnTiarv bodies broke out into rejoicings over the reign of love which was beginning.! pconomists aeciarea tnat nations would now see how much more ennobling was the strife of peace and commerce than .that of war, and many of the foremost statesmen of England gave it as their opinion that now the nations had once convened in peace and found it so pleas ant national hatreds would cease. The advanced free traders were especially jubilant. . . "i ; -.

A .Letter to Cardinal GibtoenB on tha v i School Qneaticm. r-i t- Br Tdegmpk tiw IfareJag Sur. '. -'I' Baltimorb, June 17-Cardinal Gib bons bat received the long expected let ter irom the Holy Father on the school question, with the request to send copies of It to all episcopates of the United States. The Cardinal savs that : long and voluminous document,1 and it is eminenUy worthy of the august head of the Catholic Church. i f61 ! . ; Then came in quick succession the Cri mean war, the sepoy mutiny and. war in India, the French-Austrian war in Italy in 1859. the great civil war in America, the Garlbaidjan wars in Italy, Prussia and Austria's war. with Denmark and then with each other and finally the hor ribly bloody German-French, war of 1870.- Contemporary with these were Mexican and South American revolutions and wars, French intervention and de feat and unusually destructive wars with savages in many places, and through it all the great Tae Ping Wang war in China was going on, with massacres too frightful to describe, and it did not end tm it had Jost 7,000,000 lives. y i Instead of being the end of war, the Crystal palace affair came to be looked upon as a festival to end the peace, the longest western Europe had ever; en joyed. Within a few years after it closed nearly all the nations had larger armies, heavier armaments and higher tariffs than ever before in their s history. They have since, the United States and possibly two or throe othen excepted, vastly increased their armaments, and so .far as the human eye can see are get ting ready for bloodier war than ever. Despite the wars, England continued to give great ; and notable ' exhibitions, though on a smaller scale than the origi nal, till in 1863 the international exhibi tion at Kensington again revived the glories of the famous Crystal palace. The original was taken down, as Hyde park was hardly suited for its perma nent place, but out of tte materials the second was erected, which is still one of the Bights of London. i' Fairs have been held as aforesaid from time immemorial, and the- name is de rived from the Latin "feria," a day of rest or holiday, but for obvious reasons those held on the border of Asia and Europe, convenient to natural routes, have been most noted. - Of . all these, none other can compare with the bo called Peter and Paul fair at Nizhnee Novgorod, Russia. Until a very recent period it surpassed by far any other fair in the world, and the traders present during one fair often exceeded 200,000. From the bazaars for storing goods of a delicate or perishable nature the govern ment receives some 200,000 during one fair, and the sales seldom fall below AT PFTT.ATWT.PTTTA, 1ft7fl. $100,000,000. ! Every known product of Europe and Asia is dealt in' and every nation and almost every tribe repre sented. I ''; i The great Hurdwar fair of India, on the upper Ganges, has acquired an evil reputation. Every year some 200,000 traders and visitors are there, "but every twelfth year, which is the year of the holy pilgrimage, the pilgrims are num bered by millions, and from there on that year the cholera Btarts. It is, by the way, an interesting fact that all the old world fairs of which the full history is known originated in religious festivals. In the dark ages, when all sorts of duties! and local imposts hindered the move-" ment of goods, it was the custom to ex-, empt from such taxes all goods on their, way to a religious festival. The result' is easily seen. The festival soon became a market, and when Alfred the Great introduced free fairs into England they were soon held even in the churches and churchyards. Now that the movement of goods is free, all these local fairs have lost their importance. ; I France has established the rule of a fair every 11 years, and - her expositions of 1867, 1878 and 1889 were marvelously successful, each greatly outdoing its predecessor.! Vienna was thought a fair ; rival to Parig being wonderfully gay, : musical and cosmopolitan, but Vienna's, exposition of 1873 encountered many : difficulties. ; To promote its success the emperor gave up his ancient deer park, i the Krisan, and in clearing the ground j for the famous central rotunda the man ! agers left a small clump of green trees ' in its center with a very fine effect. One point was most amply provided for. The epace occupied was five times as great as that given : to the Paris exposition of 1867. Before the world could make np its mind about the success of Vienna there came such a terrific financial crash that it was forgotten. Indeed the world wide panic began at Vienna and during the very height of the fair's progress, and thus a dark shadow was thrown back upon the affair. - In conclusion, one must say of these great expositions, as of almost all hu man devices, that they rarely accom plish one-fourth what is expected of them. It is even questioned by many shrewd observers whether they really benefit the cities in which they are held. Many thousands come, it is true, and eat and drink and pay high prices for it. but when the fair is over the non self sup-; AT MELBOtJKNE, 1880. porting class of the city is found to be much .larger thai before. Paris Is an exception of course. It is practically a show city. . London may be also, being so large and so thoroughly policed. But in all the cities of new countries such an affair leaves a woeful mass of helpless and worthless humanity. Expositions have their purpose, of course, and do good, but they evidently do not promote peace, as London once thought, or in sure prosperity, as Vienna fondly hoped. : J . H. Beadle.
