CHIOACIO , III. , April 211 [ Special to TUB
HBE 1 A sunshiny day brought out a croud
and vlaltot4 thronged the Iowa stale Lulld-
Ing from morning until nUlit Cmpnra
lively few hailed from the Huwltcyo state
Itself , hut in.irij Chicago residents claimed
an Interest In the building ftom havlmr lived
there In former ye irs Not nil who tried
the doors gained admittance an the nustllng
preparations within were not conducive to
oxtonslvo ontcrialtimcnt Sucrotaiy Chase
and Commissioner Seaman had their hands
full In directing the force of workmen and
attending t" the unavoidable business of the
last few hours before the1 opening
No one was admitted to the parlors as the
cat pots were being stretch d , but In exhibi
tion ball many viewed the work that was
rapidly neat Ing completion
The staiidanl for the model of the Des
Molnus capltol building li is been llnlshcd
for some dajs. but the exhibit Itself has not
yet arrived the position lor It is the most
prominent In the room , iiiul Us absence when
the other exhibits ate so neailj-eompleted is
qulto noticeable The contractors for the
exhibit pi utilised to have It there last week
but now claim thej cannot get It in place
before tomonow The oak table which the
Vlnton ladles fuinishod for the house ar
rived yesterday nnd was placed In the com
missioner's room w here It Is exciting much
admiration
Within the last twenty-four hours the as
sembly ball has been completely trans
formed Mr Cludo's corn and oats have
been spirited away and the floor scrub
bed until It shines like a New
England kitchen Another day will prob
ably see It sealed ready for occupmcy
Ficscocrs wcio nt work in the press rooms
and the decorations they were adding to the
walls are among the llncst In the building
The prominent nowspapcis of the state will
be represented In artistic scrolls in the four
corners of tbo ceiling The Iowa building is
fortunate in its location near the terminal of
the elevated load. Passengers weie today
enabled to step directly from the Iowa head
quarters to tbo cais which aienow carrying
passengers mound the grounds Contrary to
the expectations of manj the line docs not
connect dlrei tly with the sjstem outside of
the grounds , so that a change of cars and
repayment of faro Is exacted in pissing fiom
the city to the terminals on the Intel ior
Foitiiros of the AVork.
The clock which the ladles of Iowa City
made and presented to the Iowa building
arrived a fu\v days ago and has been placed
upon the mantel in tbo ladies' pallor The
beautiful bird's e.\o inaplo h.umonlzes veiy
well with tlio dellcatn tints of tnc wall
decorations The clock is a model of the old
Iowa state capltol at Iowa Citj , now used as
the State imheisiti
The assembly hall , on the second lloor ,
reminds one of an old-fashioned flailing
room , so thickly is the straw and grain
strewn o\er the floor It is being used for a
sorting loom , and Mi C L Gabiilson of
Now Hampton and Mr L ( ! Clude of
Manchester wcio handlingo\erbushels
of corn , separating the icd ears trom the
white , the speckled from the vollow , the
long ones from the shoit ones , until tbo
floor in tbo corner where tliov were at woik
looked like an Immense checker board
The people who will look upon the beauti
ful exhibition hall and tbo dainty ngri
cultural exhibit on tbo opening day will see
only the finished effect , and perhaps never
think of the homely little details and the
long hours that ha\o gone Into the work
manship of the displiy Hut Messrs Cludo
and Gabiilson will not bo likely to torget it
The gnntlcmon woio not at nil discouraged
over their woik , however , but happy in the
thought that Iowa wra taking the lend in
the agricultural exhibit and would receive
credit for all tbo trouble thev were taking
to make It a success. As Mr. Oabrilson
tossed tbo big oats to and fro ho
languidly gieetod the reporter with
"This isn't exactly my work Mr Clude
is In charge hero , but I am helping him out.
You come down to the dairy exhibit In Juno
and I'll ' talk to you about butter "
Mr. Gabrilson is in charge of Iowa's dali v
exhibit at the fair , and is VCTJ enthusiastic
over the display the state Intends to make.
In the same loomwheio the gentlemen
were at woik an Immense pletuio was being
unpacked When the boxing was nil re
moved It was found to bo a scenic painting
of the citj of Foit Mndlbon The clti/ens efFort
Fort Madison am pumd of their beautiful
little city and thought the ) could make no
more effective exhibit than bj sending a
representation of It on canvass.
The loom wblcb has been allotted to the
Iowa press was stored with glass bottles of
every i onccivablo shape Vbei w ill bo used
to hold the different kinds of grain in the
agricultural display. Two negro girls were
employed in washing and polishing the
cr.vstal preparatory to illllng them with the
grain , which was piled in bags in a corner of
the room.
On the whole a stirring movement was
being made toward the opening on May 1 ,
and If no other building on Ihogioiinds is
ready , Iowa w 111 bo able to open oher doors
and ontei tain her visitors as well us In the
month of June or September.

The Atchison , Topeka & Santa Fo has
given notice that on May 20 It w ill put in a

In Iho meanllmo Of couiso , that rate will
have to bo made fiom Omaha as well and

The Sanla Fe iestcrday look down
Us card in the city ticket oftlco In
Denver stating tbo round trip late to
Chicago was $45 , and instead made the rate
$49 as agreed by the association But it
went a step further and posted a blanket
rate of $1 fiom common points in Coloiado to
Denver , which the Kio Gran do lias mot
Bej'ond this exchange ot ploisantries bo-
Iween tbo Colorado roads the situalion is un

meet the cut of the Hio Grade and Iho Bur

jesteidaj' . ho was not prepaicd to say
what his road would do , wanting Sundaj' to
