line projected by Collins, from the Pacific telegraph to the Amoor River,
with its anticipated extension by the Russian government to Irkutsk, º
would be the one link now wanted to supply direct and unbroken telegraph
communication from Cape Race in Newfoundland, on the Eastern coast of
America, across the Eastern and Western continents and the Pacific Ocean,
to Cape Clear in Ireland, the westermost projection of Europe. -
A submarine cable laid between Cape Clear and Cape Race will complete

machinery, E. Beebe's collection of stamps, coins and specimens of auto-

Floral hall takes its text from nature and has so shaped its bowers,
water falls, and summer houses. Here is beauty, culled from nature and
shaped by art. The hall is octagonal-shaped, occupying the center of the
square. Entering the hall on the south side you ascend a stairway to an
elevated floor to view every part of this beautiful layout.
The fruit, the telegraph, cone, flower rustic gardening, and Indian tea
garden booths are just a few of the beautiful booths of the fair. It is
estimated that clear profits will amount to over $100,000. - (166)
