! .siie-i a length as i -n tie; wall
of a city, yet it i so admirably de
signed, so light ami graceful fa its ef
fect upon the vision, that its true ex
tent can only be comprehended when
its dimensions are expressed in figures
and by comparisons. It is one-third
of a mile long.and to compass it round
about is to walk a mile. Tne roof of
it is 1688 by 788 feet, and the span of
the dome, the largest ever attempted,
is 388 feet. The roof is 230 feet from
the ground, and the building has 40
acres of ground-floor. Two of the
vast machinery halis of the Paris Ex
position could be wLeeled through it,
and the Auditorium, the building ol '
which Chicago is most proud, could be'
poshed under this great roof, tower
and all. Julian Kalph, in Harper1
Magazine.
