There is great dissatisfaction among the
Wonmen Of time exctitive Comunittee. as also
among the women who have agreed to liar-
ticipate in the flower parade , over the nman-
mIce in hm1clm they have been tm-entoil by
Mrs. hi. McCall Travis , When the parade
was first suggested it was announced to
them that alL the arrangements would be
provided under the direction of Mrs. TravIs ,
who was employed by the exposition to get
UI ) the iunrado anti do all the work required
to ilistiro its success. For this work she
has been drawing upon the exposition treas.
tiry for oxiense blonD ) ' at the rate of $8 per
clay , in addition to the $200 which she waste
to receive as her salary , For this sun was
Lot only to organize the parade , bu ohio to
tiesigIl ( lie decorations for the carriages
anti the costumes for the drivers rind to give
all nceeasar imiatruetton to enable the
participating to nmt tim plan iii
motion.
Instead of doing this Mrs. Travis has loft
nlrnost all this work to the committee in
charge. The women who wish to consult
her have been unable to find her. hmitteaul
of making designs for time carriages she has
simiily told tiiemmi to look over her coiloctiomi
of photographs and select something ( hey
vou.iltl like to imitate. The instructiomi with
reference to ninkluig the flowers has been so
crtmtlo that it has had to be supplemented by
a number of Omaha wounen who are exports
iii ( lint line and without whose assistance
the lIneal decorations could not have been
prepared. Worse yet , not content with the
mnunillcent remuneration promised by the
expoition , Mrs. Travis has been devoting
her time , althotmgii paid for by the exposi-
tiomi piaongenieqt , to the decoration of private -
vate carriages , for which she is charging time
owners from $30 to $50 each , Naturally , the
women who have lint thrnselves to so great
trouble to make time liower parade a success
do not relish this kind of treatment from
time woman who is beimmg paid to do the
work antI claimlag all time glory. The pa.
rode ivill without question be a great sue-
0055 , but it will be uitio entirely to the self-
sacrificing and unremitting labors of limo
Omaha women who have volunteered to act
oa the executive committee ,
ART AT THE EXPOSITION ?
Very beautiful 1 line and dignified in
P030 is the statue of Neptune of the dcc-
trio fountain. Ills form is strong and muscular -
cular ; with the right hand he holds his
trident , the three-pronged symbol of hIs
power , with whtcb he shattered rocks nut !
called forth or subdued storms. His heath
is boat and his left arm is extended as
it 1cm time act of quelling ( be troubled waters.
As the state of the sea is varying , so this
god of the sea is sonietirnes represented in
violent agItation anti sometimes-as tlmo L
sculptor has hiere fashioned him-in a state
of repose. One foot rests on the head of
a dolphin , one of the symbols of Neptune.
The legend has it that Aznpbitrite , his wife ,
nt first lied from his love , but ho came to
her one day riding on a dolphin , and thus
won her affections , showing even at that -
early day that the feminine mind did not
disdain accessories. For this timely service
the dolphin was ever after in favor with
the sea god.
The statue Is placed on top of a Roman
Done column. A little below half way of
the height thme column is decorated by an
ornamented band with projecting Roman
lrows. Tue column sets on a pedestal from
each side of which projects a conventional
ship's prow , while between the prows are
dolphins blowing water into the lagoon.
The effect of the ensemble , of the serene
and majestic statue standing on the deco-
native column is impressive , if for no other
reason than by its simplicity. The figure
can be seen from all parts of the lagoon
court ; and although in comparison to the
MaoMonnles fountain in the court of honor ,
i t may seem inadequate. yet wore it larger
and more obtrusive it would probably
dwarf the adjacent buildings and diminish
t ho apparent size of the lagoon. And as
the main object of the fountain is to be
only a decorative unit in the whole compo-
aition. It would have failed in its mission
bad it been inoro dominating. Although
the idea and the peso of the statue are not
original , the sculptor has modeled it with
l oving care. lie has represented the god with
outstretched hand to still the restless waves ,
yet how indifferent be is to the play of
the water about him. This unchanging
god , Neptune , looks out unperturbed either
by the past or the future. Wars wage
about him , nations rise and fail , yet the
ceaseless throb of the sea , his home , has
been neither quickened nor diminished in
its pulsation. since the Greeks worshipped
him as Poseidon anti Phidias immortalized
him in stoao on the Parthenon.
What. irony of fate that this statue of
the implacable god should be the last
earthly production of the sculptor-Emil
Ucnry Wtmertz-hofore ho was swallowed up
In time cold depths of the relentless sea !
It. was only a few weeks after the statue
vim finished and placed in position that ho
wall drowned iii the sinking of the hour.
ogne. I met him a. few ciay after the
o pening of the exposition , as he was nbout

tt ti that so soon as he cotulti arrange hit
