Never before In the history of the country has tber beou held an expo sition with so many attractive features as the Jamestown Tercentennial, now in full sw)ng on the historic waters of Hampton Boada. The Tercentennial is now complete In all of Its details and presents to the Tlsltoe a veritable dreamland. The immense exhibit pal aces, state and government buildings, all of a permanent or semipermanent con traction, set off with the most lux uriant trees and foliage, jive to this exposition an appearance distinct from all of Its predecessors. Within an hour's ride by either boat or train are such places as Yorktown, where Cornwallls surrendered to the Continental army, and Jamestown Is land, the "cradle of America," where now remain only the old ruins ef the first church In America. Jnst across the waters of Hampton Roads are locat ed Old Point Comfort and Fort Mon roe, the strongest and most Impor tant artillery station on the Atlantic coast, whose grim walls end winding moat make It one of the most pictur esque spots In the country. These and many other places of historic Interest give an appropriate setting to the Jamestown exposition, which commem orates the three hundredth anniversary of the first permanent English speak ing settlement In America, the most Important event in the history of mod ern times. Owing to the fact that the James town Tercentennial Is the first celebra Oon ever held on deep water In this country, there has been going on al most continually a grand naval spec tacle of a kind such as America has never seen before. The entire North Atlantic fleet, under the command of Bear Admiral Bobley D. Evans, squad ron by squadron, will rendezvous In Hampton Boa da from time to time, giving the visitor to the exposition ample opportunity to see the strongest fleet of battleships In the world. There will at all times during the summer be at least six men-of-war In the roads. The army as well as the navy Is well represented at the Tercentennial, and dally parades by crack regiments of United Btates troops are to be seen on Lee's Parade, one of the largest and best equipped drill plains In the ceun try. Stationed at the exposition grounds at present are the entire Twenty-third regiment of United States Infantry, the Second squadron of the Twelfth Unit ed States cavalry and D battery of the Third field artillery. Several regl ments of the national guard of Varl ous states, besides numerous military and semlmllitary organizations, are en camped at the exposition from time to time. Each of these military organiza tlons brings its own band, which, to gether with the exposition orchestras and bands, elves a continual and varied musical programme. The government exhibits, housed In four handsome structures on the water front of the exposition, comprise one of the most complete and compre hensive displays of the work of the various departments of the government ever assembled. The individual states have also come forward at this exposi tion with their heartiest support and co-operation, and twenty of them have erected buildings to represent them at the Tercentennial, while practically every state la represented In exhibits historical, educational or Industrial These state buildings are located on Wllloughby Boulevard, a grand avenue paralleling the water front, and from the broad piazzas of the state struc tures visitors may rest and view the magnificent and historical harbor whereon the vessels of the world might rest at anchor. In the Immediate front appear the great white men-of-war of our own and ofttlmes a foreign na tion's, and yachts, sloops, schooners and merchant vessels of every kind. Beyond are the frowning walls of Fort Monroe and the beautiful so cial retreat of the coast, Old Point Comfort To the left may be seen the noted ..industrial school at Hampton, and still farther up the roads, toward where the mighty James mingles Its waters with the salt tide of the sea, may be seen the city of Newport News, with the greatest shipyards In the world. To the right appears the broad ening channel from roads to bay and from bay to broad and mighty At lantic out between the capes of Charles and Henry. The Illumination at ulgnt is a scene fn Itself worthy a journey of a thou sand miles to witness, and, with all the outlines of the buildings aglow. the paths of the Canoe Trail and Lov era Lane twinkling with the myriads of little lights, the war Path a blaze of electricity, the many powerful searchlights playing the heavens with their mysterious messages and fift miles of shore lines dotted with the lights of a dozen cities and nestling tewns, what epectaclo more sublime or beautiful couM.be Imagined? On the amusement section of the ex position, called the War Path, there is every conceivable amusement and diversion, where the visitor to the ex position, after a long day of sightsee ing, can relax and let himself drift with the pleasure seeking from one amusement to the next en this ."Great White Way," where the lights ever twinkle and the noise f,iha oriental music Is ever In the air.'

The North Carolina state hltttortcal exhibit, but recently installed In.tbs History building at the Jamestown ex position, forms one of the' most Inter esting and valuably collections of its kind at the Tercentennial and reflects gtvntjccttdlt upon the state and those individuals who are responsible for Its presence. Tbe exhibit, which Js partly under the ausplcos of tbe Wachovia llletorlc society, a Moravian organiza tion of Winston-Salem, N. C Is under the direction of Hiss Lindsay Patter son, chairman of tbe committee; Miss Scheuck of Greensboro, Miss Mary llinton of fUloIgh and J. A. Llnbacft of the Wachovia Historic society, v': Tbe Moravian exhibit (a a most lu terestlug..coMecttoa of the handicraft and genius of the people of ttjl de nomination who settled in North Caro lina In tbe early part of the eighteenth century and demonstrates their won derful Ingenuity. Among the relics of this exhibit is tbe first Are engine im ported lu this country; also one of the first printing presses, which was cap tured later by Cornwallls and used In the printing of his orders. " Pottery, bead work and pewter ware form an Important part of tbe collection, which Is exhibited for the first time outside of the city of Wtnston-Salem. , The state exhibit, whlch'cevers the entire early history of North Carolina from Its beginning through the war of 1S12, Is replete with portraUa.of pres idents, governors and statesmen who hare' been produced .from within her borders; also famous documents, let ters and silverware from many of the old families of tbe state. Relics from .'the famous battles of Guilford Court Jlouse and Morse Creek bridge also form part of tbe exhibit The portraits are among tbe most in teresting of the exhibit consisting' of the not?d John Vblte collection of In dian pictures presented by Colonel B. FT. Cameron, the portraits of Presi dent Jackson, Pope and Johnson, two of Reynolds' portraits and a famous portrait of Theodosia Burr by an un known artist. ' Tbe portrait of Theodosia Burr, daughter of Aaron Burr, the saddest and most romantic character In -Ameri can history, has a history too remark able to pass over without some men-, tlon. Theodosia Burr (Mrs. Alston, wife ef Governor Alston of North Carolina) set saO from Georgetown, N, C. to meet her father, Aaron Burr, In New York upon bis arrival from Europe. Tbe ship she sailed In was lost at sea, and nothing was erer known of the fate of this beautiful woman until re cently, when tbe picture which now forms part of the history exhibit at the exposition was found in the posses sion of an old woman whose remark- able-etory proves -without a doubt that Theodosia came to her death at the bands of pirates. The portrait was found in the shanty of a very old wom an at Nags Head, N. C, who told tbe story-of how a piratical crew lured ships on to the shallows by false lights benefiting by the resulting wrecks. Tbe painting found in . ber possession was given her by one of the pirates as his share of tbe booty taken from a ship that was without a doubt tbe one on wblcb Theodosia Burr set sail never to be heard of again. The collection of silver services pre sented by some of the most noted fam ilies of tbe state also adds greatly to the value of the collection. The ex hibit In Its entirety Is one of tbe hand- sMnsst and best chosen which have been Installed at the exposition an must be seen to be appreciated." Items of kJerest Fron an Ad Jolalcj County.
