With the exception of Festival Hall, tbe frames of all the great structures named are made of steeL The architects of the Palace of Hor ticulture turned back the pages of time to the days of the old Saracens of Constantinople for their Inspiration, tha domes and minarets being similar to those of the famous Mosque of Sul tan Ahmed L. which in turn was based on tbe celebrated dome crowning the Byzantine Mosque of St. Sophia, which is the mother of most of the architec tural marvels of the Levant. No dome of similar enormous dimensions ever was again attempted by the Byzan tines, and it was always believed that such an architectural marvel could not be duplicated. Hfl. J. STAl'B'S AVILL FILED. Ignores Two Daughters .. . and Gives Farm to Christian Science Church. (Special Star Correspondence.) Xewbern, N. C, Oct. 24. The will of H. J. Staub, who was found dead on his dairy farm near this city last Sat urday evening, has been filed with the clerk of Craven county. This will com pletely ignores the existence of two daughters of the deceased and there Is probability that it will be contested. The deceased gives to his wife all of his personal property, outright, and Pves her the home as long as she may lige and it then reverts to his 'daugh ter, Mrs. Julia Staub Bell. The will further states that the dairy farm is to be sold and after all of the bills of the deceased have been paid, that the i t-mainder of the proceeds are to , be turned over to the First Church of . f'hr1st, Scientist, of this city, of which me deceased was a member.. As the farm is valued at- $10,000 and it is estimated that the administrators ill use less than $5,00.0 in settling up the estate, the Christian Science church Avi" get quite a neat sum. Two of the :uighters of the deceased, 'Mrs. SW. Jones of this city and Mrs. Caffee, of Norfolk, Va.-, were not mentioned in document.

For adults and children. u cents. : ; ----- . It remained for this Exposition to go St. Sophia one better. The great glass dome of the Palace of Horticulture the largest in the world Is 152 feet In diameter and .185 . feet from floor to apex, being 45 feet wider and 6 feet higher than that of the mosque . built by Constantine the Great over a thou sand years ago, and. for that matter, greater than any Turkish mosque ever built. The Mosque of St Sophia, for example, covers only 62,000 square feet, while the 'exposition palace which will house the floral wonders of the world covers 223.000 square feet of ground, or over five acres, being 660 feet long and 300 feet wide. It was built at a cost of $341,000. The many domes of this palace are of mottled glass. By day, under-the bright California sun. the, vaulted surfaces re flect a blend of colors only , less gor geous than the effect . of tbe unique night Illumination. By means of re volving polychromatic . scintillators, concealed among the lofty. royal palms beneath the main dome, the ever chang ing colors at night, when seen from without, create tbe Illusion of a gigan tic soap bubble set down among tropic groves. - The details and ornament' of the many smaller domes and trellis work give an' eighteenth century Renaissance effect, the minor garden architecture being of the period of Louts XXV. of France Halt of the Interior is de BELOVED LADY PASSES AWAY Mrs. Settle Clemmons of Scrotbport Died Saturday Politics Waiting Up (Special Star Correspondence.) . Southport, N. C, Ost...25. Saturday there passed away a most estimatble, Christian women, Mrs. Bettie Clem mons, wife of the recently deceased, J. Hardy Clemmons. . Mrs. Clemmons was a woman whose affectionate disposition, and generous heart drew all to her. For years she conducted the Clemmons House here, and was known to a great many in this way, though as Aunt Bettie she was beloved of many young people, who will greatly miss her. Her first hus band was J. W. Woodside. The funeral will be held at the Bap tist Church, Sunday afternoon, of which denomination she was a devout member during the greater portion of her life. She was 73 years of age, Friday witnessed one of the heaviest down-pours of rain seen here in many months .particularly for October.' The fall, was about . three and one-half inches. There is a good deal of stir among the candidates of both parties in this county,; speeches being made in every section, no- cross road being too in significant for a stop and talk. .

There is every prospect that this city will soon have its own bakery, tire head of the bakery being Mr. J. J.

In this manner the Exposition grounds will be kept carpeted .with continuous bloom from FebrBxv to December. 1915. pret the view of - the Kaiser's people, then the. pan-G.ermanism of Bernhardt is not .the fantastic dream of a small group who have happened to get con trol, but; a ' belief that has " been wrought into the substance of the Ger man masses. .There is reason why this should be so. n The man who has .newly" come into .great wealth finds it difficult hot to be governed by his desire to emulate his wealthy neighbors and by his fear for the safety of his possess ions. Germany as a nation is young, and itf has grown rich quickly. Its de sire for a "place in the sun" and its suspicions of its. neighbors are perhaps a natural product of its youth and its rapid rise. Moreover, Germany as an Empire was founded in aggressive, war fare., , It owes much of its . material prosperity to its arms. "We do not con demn the Germans for holding these views; but, though it still may remain true that -the .diplomatists who carried on the negotiations" and the military who put their weight of . influence on the - side of war were short-sighted when they-should have been, wise, it is riot fair to. say of German leaders arid princes who are, like the -commoni soldiers,-' risking their lives at .the front, that they, are .solely responsible for the attitude of mind that brought on the war if. it is really an inheritance of the whole -nation. . . ' A. German victory, therefore, would mean a victory for this idea of national conduct; that the. self-interest of every nation is and ought" ,t6 be supreme, that - ' " ( Continued oh Pasre '8.1 . , - ' - f.: - .'? - -A--v-:--...-.,r.-;t...

SUBSTITTITZOST. The imitator is like the coun terfeiter. He enters the field of business with a cheaper, lower grade article of merchandise, made as a substitute for the gen uine, ' and generally sold at a cheaper price, arguing, as usual, that it is "just as good." The dealer is persuaded to handle it on glowing promises of enormous profits much larger than the reg ular legitimate profit which Is made on the genuine article. The imitator succeeds in playing upon man's natural avarice, - places his goods on sale with the dealer, and instructs ' him to- take advantage of the public by substituting the false article for the genuine at every opportunity... Tou can be pretty sure that whenever you ,ask for a well-known product and the dealer tells you he has some thing else that's just as good, or even better, the dealer is going to make a greater profit on that ar ticle than the one you call for, and in nine cases out of ten you will get a much Inferior article. . Some buyers are'easily imposed upon and this encouragresfc the "get-rlch-quick" schemers to in crease their substitutions. This also discourages the legitimate manufacturer who is putting out articles of merchandise that rep resent honest value to the con sumer. Where a man has devoted years of his life in perfecting an article that he knows cannot be excelled in quality: where he has spent thousands of dollars in ad vertising his goods; and where these goods have been giving uni versal satisfaction for a long time, great Injury results by per mitting substitution to rob him of his market and at the same time rob the consumer by selling him a doubtful article at practi cally the same price. . There is no law through which such evil practices can be stopped. The sole remedy is for the legitl-, mate manufacturers to ask the public , direct not ; to patronize dealers who try to substitute a different brand of goods for the kind wanted. All first class deal ers know that it is poor business to try to substitute something else for the article wanted.
