The regular seml-mcnthly mcctlnB of the
Nebraska Exposition commission was held
ot the headquarters ot the commission In the
Milliard hotel yesterday. A Inrgo amount
ot routine business was transacted and the
commission adjourned at noon to accompany
Governor Holcomb to the exposition grounds
to survey the grounds and note the progress
which has been ma do on the Nebraska build-
Ing.
Ing.A
A number of bids for doing the plaster and
etalT work on the Nebraska building and for
furnishing the statuary necessary for the
embellishment of the structure wore opened ,
and discussed at length. It was finally de
cided to defer action on the statuary bids un
til the next meeting of the board and the bidet
ot Klmball Ores , of Lincoln on the plaster
and staff work was accepted. This firm of
fered to do the plastnrlng Inside and outsldo
ot the building and the staff work for the
lump sum of J4.COO. The other bids were
based on a price per yard In most Instances ,
the prlco running from 13 % cents to 27 cents
per yard. Chairman Neville will draw the
contract with Klmball Dros. and a repre
sentative of the firm who was present agreed
to commence plastering the Interior ot the
building next -week.
Superintendent Blake was Instructed to
lay off all men employed by him until after
the plastering la finished , when n force ot
carpenters will bo engaged to finish the
Interior of tlio building , it was the unani
mous sentiment o the boird that no fur
ther tlmo shpuld bo lost In completing the
Nebraska building , but that the work should
lie pushed as fast as the weather will permit
and the superintendent was Instructed to
Govern himself accordingly.
It was announced that the ruhcrold roof
ing material arrived this morning and Su
perintendent I-ilnke was Instructed to proceed
at once to put the material on the roof. The
material can bo handled In cold weather by
etorlng It In a warm room until required
on the roof and doing the work as expcdl-
tlously as possible.
WILL IIAVn A FOUNTAIN.
Superintendent Chapln ot Lincoln , In
charge of the floriculture department for the
Nebraska commission , suggested that a
fountain bo placed In the center of the
rotunda on the main floor of the building
end that It be Installed while the plasterIng -
Ing was being done , as considerable plaster
( would be required In this work. He pre
sented several suggestions for a basin and
n. symetrlcal design 12 feet In diameter was
cclectcd. Mr. Chapln was Instructed to
hove the work done , the total cost for the
fountain being limited to $100. Mr. Chnpln
said his Intention was to ask the Ne
braska Pish commission for goldfish for the
basin and to decorate It with aquatic
plants.
C. F. Catlln appeared before the board In
the Interest of the plan suggested by him
In a card appearing In The Bee , providing for
the decoration of the rotunda of the Nebraska
( building with paintings and other works of
( irt 'by ' Nebraska artists. Sic Informed the
Commission that ho had good reason to be
lieve and was confident that the Art buildIng -
Ing would bo closed to all except artists of
national or world-AvIdo fame and ho re
marked that many of the artists of Nebraska
could scarcely come tn that category. For
that reason ho urged that the board make
provision for decorating the Interior of the
rotunda , and possibly other portions of the
Btato building , with these pictures , ceramics ,
etc. Ho suggested that the commission
talght offer prizes and thus secure the best
grades of work.
To this latter suggestion the members of
the commission demurred at once , saying
that under the agreement with the exposition
management no exhibits could be allowed In
the state building , and , consequently , no
prizes could bo offered. ' .Mr. Catlln was re
quested to confer with the artists of the
etato and submit a plan at the next meeting
Ot the board for carrying out his suggestion.
, PROVISION FOR UNIVERSITY.
1 'Chancellor MacLcaa wrote a long letter
to > the comTnlsslon In which ho asked for an
npproprlatlcn to enable the University of Ne
braska to prepare , ship and Install Its ex
hibit. Ho explained that the university
could not make an exhibit unless some way
flvaa provided for covering the expense of
these Items , as Uio regents were hampered
In the disposition of funds. Ho enumerated
several Items of expense , among them be
ing $200 for n attendant to care for the
mxhlblt after Installation , $500 for the prepa
ration of maps , charts , etc. , $250 for Instal
lation o f tiio exhibits , $300 for transporta
tion , and an unknown amount for janitor
tervice. The board had already provided for
the transportation , Installation und care of
the university exhibit aud the secretary
iwaa Instructed to notify tbo chancellor < o
that effect. Regarding the Item of $500 for
the preparation of in ops , charts , etc , , the
chancellor will bo requeated to appear before
the commission at Us next meeting and ex
plain just what Is contemplated by this
item.
B. F. Stuffer of Bellevue \\as appointed
nuperlntendent of the da'lry department.
By order of the commission all superin
tendents on regular salary will bo laid off at
once and will not bo put on the pay roll again
until their services are required In the active
Work of the exposition.
Chairman Neville notified the commlsson
that lie had Informed tlio Dougkm County Vet
erans' association that the commission had
rrovided for a room for war relics In the
Nebraska building , and the chairman ttild ho
tad taken the liberty of saying that the com
If- mission would also acccdo to a request of the
association for desk room and desks for the
Boldiors of both the north and the south In
the building. The action of the chairman
rtvas endorsed ,

At tup afternoon session a committee con-
Istlng of E. J. Cornish nn4 II. E. Palmer
Toprcscntlng the Hoard of Park Commis
sioners , and Edward Hosewator , representing
the oxccutlvo committee of the exposition
appeared before the commission to present i
euggcstlon regarding the Arch of States , the
handeomo structure which is designed to bo

ernor 'Holcomb was present and lintencd In
teutly to thu discussion.
iMonager Rosewater acted as spokesman
tor the committee and Informed the No
jbraska commissioners that the Arch of States
cau been designed for a double purpose to
form the main entrance to the exposition
and to remain as a permanent decoration
In Kountzo park aa a reminder of the beau

co that thlR arch should bo formed of stone

no coutso of stone , thereby making the
rch truly an arch of the xtatcs , besides
rovltllng a permanent memorial of the ox-
> osltlon of the resources of this great see-
on. Mr , Hosewatcr said It would bo a most
ledltaMo thln tir th6 stnto of Nebraska
o build the foundation of this structure and
ay the first courio of ntono and then say
> the other Mates , "Nebraska has prepared
ho foundation for this arch typifying the
nlson of the states In the great transmls-
Isfllppl region ; now come Tvlth your atone
ind build upon this foundation a memorial
iBt shall endure for goncratlons upon the
Ito ot this great exposition ot our re-
ourcrs. "
E. J , Cornish followed "Mr. " Ilosewatcr and
: atcd that the Hoard ot I'ark Commls-
onrrs had agreed to expend (30,000 tn per-
mncnt Improvements on this portion of
10 exposition grounds , but has not sufficient
tinds to appropriate $18,000 for the con-
ruction of this arch and do the many other
ilngs that are necessary. Ho said , how-
vcr , that the board would provide the
Melds of the state which will bo required
n the frlcza of the arch and furnish the
rcn work , flag poles and other Items rc-
ulrcd to complete the structure.
COMMISSION NOT UI3ADY TO ACT.
Mcmbsrs of the N'ebrtsKa commission asked
umciotis questions regarding the probable
iost of the work asked of them , but none of
ho committee was prepared to answer this
ucstlon. It ws stated that the bids for the
tructuro complete wcro less than $18,000 , and
is the building waa nearly ninety feet In
iclfiht the cost of the foundation and first
ouree could form hut a relatively small pro-
> ortton of the cost , as the foundation could
10 made almost entirely of concrete.
Tlio matter was dlscuracd Informally with-
ut any member of the Nebraska commls-
ilon expressing himself positively upon the
ilea , and then the committee \VSB requested
o sacure figures from the architect and sub-
lit them for the consideration of the com-
ilttilon at Its moating- December 28.
Mr. Hosewater suggested that If Governor
lolcomb would Issue on Invitation to the
; overnora of the transmlsslsslppl states , ask-
ng them tn contribute ono course of ston ;
jr' the arch from the mineral resources of
lielr state , all the necessary material could
e secured at llttlo or no coat.
Governor Ilolcomb expressed himself In the
trongest terms as being lu favor of doing
nythlng reasonable to eccurc some perma-
ent memorial of the coming exposition. He
aid ho thought It would be a great shame
o put all the money Into structures which
vlll bo destroyed as soon as the exposition
s ever nnd said ho was strongly In favor of
reeling eomo building that would remain to
emlnd future generations of the great ex-
> osltlon. The governor said he would gladly
FKUO an ofT'.dal Invitation to the governors
f other states , as suggested , and would urge
lie matter upon them. Ho suggested that
lie exposition executive committee take ofll-
lal action In the nutter upon which he might
roceed.
The special commlttco withdraw and ro-
urned In a few moments to announce that
! io executive committee had passed a motion
o request the governor to take official action
n the mattor.
The governor said he would take the mat
er up at once and It was thought some re-
Hen might bo secured by the next mooting
f the Nebraska commission.

Mmc. Nordlca arrived In this city ycstcr-
ay aftcrnoco at about 4 o'clock. The great
> rlma donna and her company came from
) onvcr over the Burlington reid and op-
icarcd , os they stepped from the oar , to
mvo bad a pleasant Journey.
Loot evening Mmc. Nordlca and several
f her company occupied a box at the Crelgii-
oa theater aid after the close of the first
et of "The Hoosler Doctor" the rcprcscntu-
vo of Tuc Bee , in response to her Invlta-
on , oillod upon her. One cannot engage
n conversation with < ha ! wonderful woman
Ithaut feeling the latent power which 'la
omo grand aria or scene irom an opera
Hirsts forth , thrilling and entrancing spell-
lotind multitudes. There Is a mental actlv-
y that sees all sides ot a proposition at
glauco and an i.nlmatlcu , both to the ideas
nd their express-Ion , which surprises and
ascliutos. Back of a gentle , unassuming
xtcrlor one feels the presence ot a great
orce , which , when in actlcu , pauses before
o obstacle. Mmo. Nordlra IB not only n
; rcat singer , but she is a great mind. She
s an embodiment of the highest Ideals ind
mat subtle feelings. So rltb 'Is ' her store
t thcso Indlspenslblo resources ot a true
rtlst that she Is able to hold the exalted
> osHlon of being the mast versatile stager In
10 world.
Mmo. Nordlea expressed herself as glade
o bo again In Omaha and recalled the cor-
lal reception accorded her last season und
vhlch she said was still fresh lu her mind ,
She Inquired about the Musical naclety with
hlch she Ban : ; last season and expressed
egret that R had ciot been continued this
ear. She said : "I ! , was a fine organization
nd sing well ; it is too bad luat 'It should
mvo been given up. "
The grtat prima donna \\iis oroeclally In-
crested in the exposition , and asked manj
itestlons about It. She has read much of
in the papers and believes it will be c.
; reatcr success than any other since the
'orld's fair. She said : "I think It can do
ittch , very much for the advancement of
niiwlc in all this part of the country. Why
hat a field is here for the organization of
ionises that can bo brought together for
rand musical festivals as often as desirable.
ou know I eang at the Maine Festival two
nouths tiRO. These ore conducted by Mr
liapmati of New York. He has choruses In
great many towns around Portland , and a
ocal conductor in each town does the drilling
> r his own chorus. Mr. Chapman selects
10 numbers for the programs and assigns
icm , so when all the choruses are brought
ogethcr every one knows Just what he Is to
o. and there is tie confusion. These fes-
vals arc simply wonderful ; they make the
hole country alive with music and Interest
verybody in It. I can think of nothing else
: at would bo such an advantage to the ex-
osltlon as such a musical festival , or rather
number of them. Of course you would
iced an orchestra and soloists , but they cau
o had. " When asked If she thought there
as tlmo enough between now and the 1st
f June to organize such a department she
nswered In the alllrmatlve. "It Is an cppor-
unlty that should not bo lost to make your
; rcat exposition the greatest of them all in
ts music. "
When Mine. Nordlca was asked whether she
ould bo at liberty at any tlino during the
rogrees ot the exposition to appear In a
erles of Its performances In case her plan
ere adopted , she said she could not tell so
ar In ad\ance , as engagements fo.r opera ,
oth In this country and Europe , intervene.
After her engagement here Friday evening
10 will 1111 an engagement In Kansas City ,
nd then leave Immediately for Philadelphia ,
hero she v 111 Join the Damrosch Opera
ornpany. She will make her llrst appcar-
nce as Brunhlldo In Wagner's "Die
I'alkure , " and will for the first time on any
ago , sing that rolo.
Mme. Nordlca Is in the best of health and
plrits and Is looking forward with pleasant
ntlclpatlon to again appearing before the
) maha public en Friday evening. Her pcpu-
arlty with the oeoplo of this city waa evl-

ICE CAUNIVAL AND LAGOON NOTES.
The doubt In the minds of many prophets
oticcrnlng the chances of an Ice palace being
ullt Is being rapidly dispelled anJ 'If Uier
ould only eeo the special location ca t.ho
agoon that Manager I/ovo Is Jiavlng built
ip every time the thcmioractcr touches the
rcczlng point 'they ' would then begin to
nthusc. From fourteen to sixteen Inches ot
Icar Ice IB considered a good starter for
10 middle of December , cod with a tow days
f such weather as was experienced last night
iicro will bo at least twtaty Inches. Cut-
Ing Ice from ttoo lagoon will mean o large
avlng In expense and In consequence a very
laborato palace.
The Electitc Light company has started
vork on the system ot lights for the la-
eon and will have everything1 lr running
