become foremost in the ptoduetion of tlio

lenst per cent of Illiteracy , Iowa Is now
about to take a stop in another direction
and exhibit to the states her rosouiccs
for "light , hent nnd power" in nvoul ,

fcpcclnl to Iho Chicago li'cws. The
pahiuo Idea just now Is the prevalent
line , and so while her corn palace has
been built In the region of her great
torn bolt , and her blue grass palaeo lo-
entcd In the center of her best meadows ,
It IB natural that Ottuimva , being in the
renter of the coal fields , should bo
rhoscn as the site for her coal piluce , a
Unique and massive structure which lias
been in piocetsof construction for some
time , nnd now neniH completion. 1'ri-
nmrily the eoal palaeo will icpre oiittho
ten counties luljncont to It , so pioduetive
of clicnp fuel. Secondarily , but of no
less Impoilunce , it will represent the
best ot the numerous manufactories ol
tlio IJawhcyo state , for It is to bo "Tlio
Iowa Coal I'ahu'o and Industrial Ex
hibit. " The co.il region of Iowa
is not extensively mentioned in
the geographies , perhaps , and yet thoho

A ear mined over three nnd one-half mil
lion tons of coal , employed in the inlnes
nearly eight thousand men , and paid foi
labor alone more than $1,500,000. It is
not to startling , then , that To\\n , BO well
known as an agricultural st.ite , can
huild a palace of coal taken from her
own borders nnd thus prove to tlio bister-
hood her wonderful variety of rcsomees
But the palace 1
It Is an imposing structure 230 feet in
length and IHO foot in width , tlio main
tower being 200 feet in height. It has
an aichitectural character of its own.
and with Its bUtlomonts and turrets of
jot icinimls ono of the frowning castles
of feudalism. The architecture is a
compromise between the Gothic and By
zantine. The loftiness hints at the
Gothic , but the domes a little more bul
bous would do credit to the Russian
stylo. The palaeo will bo two stories in
height , the lirst being about twenty feet
to Iho celling , the other reaching to tlio
top of tlio Btrutuio ( , varying fiom forty
to Hlxty feet. The main entrance Is on
Main Htieot , through the grand arc-lies
in the tower to the right , who-'O summit
is near the grand to\\or. That tower Is
, . thirty-six feet wide and of thosamo pro
portions ns the one to the left , which
laces tlio unique and beautiful bunken
pardon on Washington stitot. The
rear end is betuitlliea by twin semicircular
'
cular turrets , ono of wh'lch can ho seen
nt the extreme right , A couple of simi
lar towers , homewhat moio elongated ,
jnt out from the other side toward tlio
opposite or Washington end of the pal
ace on the opposite side. In this tower
is the stage , JO by 30 , and the main hall
with the b.dconic ? ascending direct
from the stage , will give the building an
auditorium with a seating capacity of
from four to six thousand. On cither
side of the main room or nave of the
building are the spaces ubovo and below
for tlio exhibits of the nine surrounding
counties and from abroad.
There will bo throe features especially
which will delight every visitor the
mine , the garden and the waterfall.
The palnco Is built in what is known as
the "Sunken park , " owned by Piesident
P. G. Balllngall. Yeais tigo the DCS
Monies river plunged in mighty torrents
over the spot the palace
adorn ? . The "Q" came into the
city , , and ( hiding no batter right 0t
of way pushed out on trestle vork nn
embankment across the bond in the
rhor. This changed the course of the
N % Htiearn , and soon a slough was incased
'which was reclaimed , and Colonel Unl-
lingall became possessor of it. It has
never been tilled up completely , and was
thus known as the "Sunken p.irk. " Na
ture Booms to have intentionally mndo
the excavation , for that part of it be
neath the palace comes in play in a most
fortun.ito manner as n miniature con'
mine , which is to bo ono of the feature *
N of the palace , nnd tlio , cavation is most
admirably adapted to 't. Into the mine
a shaft will lead fiom the main tower ,
over ono hundred and lif ty foot above ,
The tow < * will bo ovoi * forty feet square
nnd will bo reached by moans of two ole
vutors in the boml-cireulnr towers
toward the front or by a flight of stnira
in either of the 'other somi-circulai
towers on the tear corners. From
point tlio bightbeerill go into a cai
just ns in a regular mine , v.hon ho wil
bo lowered through a d.irk and forebod
ing dhnft into the sunken park , where
tlio mules nnd minors with their lamps
and picks , and the co.il in largo veins
can bo seen with as much -Uvidness us i
in the many mines near the city. Pron
the mine the visitor can go diicetly to
the first lloor to view the exhibits o
puss out of the building by another exit
It may ho of gre.it interest to those
who still have an admiration forToipsi
chore to know that the top of this towo
being largo enough , will bo utilized b ;
the ioung people for the graceful mini ]
et. Think of a dancing lloor with twon
tv to twenty-llvo couples tripping ih
"
* lght ( "pcdantlo" 150 foot above the Mir .
loundlng country with but a b.ilustrad Lei
to check a tendency toward "slippiii i } ,
off" and taking a toto-a-teto on the al t-
mosphoroV
The sunken garden will bo ono of tin
crowning features of the palace. Lik 10of
the mine , it will ho below the level of
the street , the sloping green from th ofo
main street and depot sides being planted ot
ed with ( lowers nnd nlants spelling ir
largo , bold beautiful lettots "Iowa Con
I'alaco. " fountains , delightful ualks ,
rare tropical plants and foilaRo , will b <
utilised to adit to its beauty , the whole t.
bo surrounded by an Iron fence , to prevent -
vent entrance thereto except from 010
palace.
The waterfall will probably bo th
largest over been In such a bulldlm' . It ]
w ill bo in the rear of the stage , a sheet
of water thirty feet wide , dashing over
an artltioliil preclplco forty feet high ' ;
at the bottom it will dissolve into spray ,
nnd electric lights in the rear will cause
a tiioiiMind rainbows to chnso each other
with oxqulsito ouVot. It will tnko 1,600-
000 gallons of water hilly for this wiitor-
full as much as Is consumed in thosamo
time by the entiio city of Ottmmva. noA
* miniature hike , peopled with the most )
beautiful representatives of the Jinny
tribes and bordcied with Mowers , will
receive this great quantity of water.
The palace at nlgnt from the exterior
will present the mqst striking appear-
nnco. Powerful electric are lights will
flash out their brilliancy from each , of
the towers , and each of the mnny windows
dews will bo provided \rilli vnilous col

The Argentine- a republic In nntno

poted of men who inako of politics n.
conuncrco writes Theodora Clillds in
Harper's weekly. In tlio old days the
solo object of the conqulstudores was to
acquire wealth rapidly , nnd such ro-
miina th6 idea of the Argentines of
today , In the colonial dnys the Spanish

care of the common weal. In tlio pro
vincial capitals wo Iind the otllces ollho
representatives ol the Jiulhoilty of
Spain and u church on which nd super
fluous adornment has been wasted ; but
wo BCO no benolielont or educational
foundations , imd no evidences of un

laration of independence the Intcsllne
strife which for years agitated the coun
try had rarely other tlinn inotius ol
sol fish ambition , for to hold power in
Spanish Amealcahas alvvnjs signillul to
possess the ine.ms of lapidly acquiring
wealth.
After the exwition of the wars ol
fedemlists and Unitariansmd the foiina
lion of the actual republic , with its con
stltxilionsol-dibniiton the model of that
of tlio United Stales , the mco for wealth
became all tlio more furious as the de

ndajs tlio A.rpontlno political men , with
verj fovv notublo exceptions thnt might
bo counted on the lingers of ono hand ,
from the president down to the humblest
local lender , are venal without conceal

rapacious pnr.isitcs , llko the conqulsti-
dors , like the colonial function tries , and
like the ambitious advonturcis who fur
