A CENTENNIAL RAMBLE.

Mamaring thanks for his release from, a thronged street car, the visitor to the Centennial grounds briskly alig ts on the concourse of railway tracks.near the entrance* to the main building and machinery hall, and hastens to the entrance to

THE MAO BUILDING.

"Got pass?" is the imperious question spirted through the thick, fierce mustache of a lofty-aired dignitary, with a glar-ed cap, gray surtout and breeches, and high boots. Having meekly answered in the negative, the visitor is ordered to halt, but finds an opportunity to observe that the great fence, which enclosed, for Custom House purposes, the southwestern corner of the building, had been, torn down to make room for the Swedes o.nd Norwegians, whose carpenters^ n$w at work there, do not detract from the proverbial hardiness and skill of those races, if judgment may be formed from their operations upon the .workman-like constructions with which they ara inclosing" their space for exhibition. Near by is the Chilian pavilion, a structure of the garden summer house style, receiving its finishing touches, and, though small, exhibiting a degree in the carpenters' nit that other parties will find difficult to excel. Half way up to the centre of the vast expanse of flooring stands the emblazoned and elaborate structure enclosing the Spanish section. If this were not a building within a building—and such a building—it would assume considerable importance, but as it is, contrast makes it diminutive. Away at the northern end, over one-third of a mile in a straight line across the floor from the point where the visitor cringes under the surveillance of him of the spirting speech and potent mustache, are the constructions, almost finished, of the

American Book Trade Association, (which, being unable to obtain sufficient space on the floor, i3 lil ting up a story overhead, supported on two colonades of iron the New England Carpet Company, and the Pacific Mills, of Lawrence, Mass. So great is the decrease of the interior, in perspective, that the workmen at these points look smaller than so many infants, and while their quick movements form a novel sight, their tools are scarcely diseernable. One of the first

IMi'RE.-:SI0.\3 OF THE SPECTATOR. as he turns his admiring gaze from point to point, along the nave, across the transept and up into the towers of this almost indescribable building, is of regret that a view so noble is to be broken by the great number of structures akin to those above referred to, and thus a prominent feature the Exposition entirely lost. Gracefully raising his hat in homage to the courteous guard, the visitor turns and runs across Apphaltum (known also as Belmont) Avenue, to peep into Machinery Hall. This time the eye surveys another

CREAXV WOODEN PKAIRIE,

more than a quarter of a mils in length, and broken in scores of spots by very attractive machinery foundations of brick or stone, and by excavations in progiess for others, with their groups of brawnyarmed delvers suggesting so many prairie conies preparing haunts for themselves and their storied guests, the owl and the rattlesnake. Great boilers for the gigantic Corliss engine and heavy machinery made ready for installment occupy a considerable poi tion of floor space, and up near the iron framework of the roof over the centre of the building, the ponderous walking-beams of the engine, now almost completely put together, are supported on cast iron uprights, the whole so great in its massiveness as to inspire fear of approach, lest it should fall and sink through the earth down to the regions of Pluto, carrying with it the spectator. Off goes the persevering man to Memorial Hall, where he is informed'that none are ad mitted into that building, with passes or without passes, as the workmen, now laying the tiled floors, must not be interrupted, and those decorating

THE INTERIOR OF THE DOME,

perched

on the summit of a network of

scaffolding, at a height of one hundred and

forty

feet from the ground, could

not work from the embarrassment caused by people coming in and looking up at them. So he gives up here and skips down to Centennial Lake, looks on his reflection to see whether impatience is portrayed in his countenance, and, satisfied that he has not fallen from grace, strides past the Art Gallery annex, which is advanced about one-fourth toward completion, and is the only one of the principal buildings whose condition suggests the fear that everything will not be ready by the opening day Horticultural Hall, around which the grounds are being rapidly set in order, and will be ready for the reception of exotic and other plants and trees, when the proper time transplanting arrives tlie vilion which is to be immediately turned over

to the Centennial

The visitor is now attracted by a crowd at the foot- of George's Hill, and he makes the number one greater. Everybody is looking upon and trying to form some idea of one of the oddest, and, per haps, the only affair of the kind ever seen in America. It is

THE JAPANESE'BTV-ELLINCJ,

now almost completed". No passes are required, but everybody not of the Mongolian race must stay outside of a rheumatic complication of twigs, grass ropes, and solitary fence rails, which runs crazily around the inclosure containing this—for want of a better name call it a house. To get an idea, of its appearance, take two cigar boxes and two squama soup plates, each with dimensions twice as great as those of the top of one of the boxes place a box with a plate on top of it with the concave side downward then put the other box on the plate, capping it as before, and you have a pretty good representation of the main part of the structure. In front is a pa-vilion-like porch at the entrance and in the rear awing of the same style as that of the main part, running back from each end. Wooden piles form the foundation, and the superstructure is composed almost entirely of a species of cedar ot a corky nature. Instead of chimneys there are a few openings in the sides of the building to allow the smoke to escape, and these are almost choked by storm guards of wood, hung from the top of the openings, and projecting shghlly outward. In one thing these Japs are decidedly successful—relief carving on wood. The door frame of the main entrance and the pediment of the porch are composed of a kind of wood cry like oak, and on them are carved, in the most skilful manner, arabesques, brackets, and a lot of birds in various conditions of motion, some of them, with heads and legs hanging lifelessly, drop" ping to the ground as if shot.

It has been declared untrue that, this building is put together solely by a dovetailing and wooden-pin process, and that no nails are used. So it is untrue. Two nails and a twenty-penny spike were stealthily stuck in last week by a sly Jap, who had learned the process of secret nailing. No white man knows, or can yet learn, what the interior is to contain. That, will form a curious chapter of the information to be obtained by visitors to the Exposition.—Philaddphict Times.

S03IE CENTENNIAL CI'IUOSITIES.

Mrs. M. B. Hayes, of clc Island, Hayy the Daily Union, lias a collection of curiosities which she proposes to have, exhibited in the Illinois department of the Centennial. There are three water color drawings, in curious wooden frames, which she has had forty-five years, and which are over a thousand years old. They were procured, with three others, by her husband in Italy. All represented Scripture subjects, and Mrs. Hayes regrets that half the set disappeared years ago, while her house was in charge of careless strangers. There is also a Latin

Bible, throe hundred years old, a lachroineter, taken from a Grecian tomb, and Baid to be two thousand years old apiece of rock from the Tarpeian hill, whence Roman malefactors were flung a piece of Mosaic floor set in lava, from tha ruins of Pompeii some small Egyptian idols, uid a lot of ancient eoins.
