H, Richardson, in tlie Office ot the Librarian of Congress, at Washinrton. The South Carolina Inter-State . . and . . West Indian Exposition. eLANS for the liolding of the Exposition were first devised ii» the spring of 1900 and the several Departments of the Exposition were organized in Au- gust, 1900, so that all that has been accomplished in this great work has consumed less than two years of time. This Exposition is held to inaugurate new industries and commerce ; to keep open new foreign markets, par- ticularly in the West Indies ; to begin the Twentieth Century of the Christian era with the arts of peace ; to develop the American culture of silk and tea ; to pro- mote the Southern manufacturer of cotton and iron ; to establish new steamship lines fiom Charleston, the cen- tral seaport of the Great Southeast ; to show the world the resources and attractions of that prolific country and the advantages of Charleston as a connecting link between the producers of ihe Southeastern States and the Mississippi Valley, on one side and the markets of the world on the other. It will not be as expensive as the World's Columbian Exposition at Chicago, but in the development of ideas and twentieth century policies, it will contribute as much, or more, to the expansion of American commerce and the peace of the world. 4 Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and W. I. Exposition. The people of Charleston although few in number, are brave and persevering. In spite of the fact that Congress refused to vote the appropriation readily- granted to other Expositions, they have succeeded in enlisting the interest of the whole United States, and of tne President and all the heads of departments in Washington, fo that, in addition to a splendid repre- sentative display from the States and f.oni the West In- dian Islands, they will also have as fine a Government exhibit as has ever been made in the United States. One hundred and eighty-five acres of land on the eastern bank of the Ashley River only two and a half miles from the business centre of the city were set aside as the site of the Exposition grounds and here the "Ivory City" has been built, which, in architectural and artistic landscape effects may challenge comparisoQ with any exposition ever held.

Three great trunk lines enter the Exposition grounds at Charleston bringing visitors from North, East, South, and West. Charleston Harbor, fifteen square miles in extent, open all the year round, will be filled with shipping during the Exposition period. The regular steamship line from New York to Charleston will doubtless bring many visitors to the Exposition grounds. Besides, the North Atlantic Squadron will visit Charleston during the first week of the Exposition and many visitors are expected who will land directly at the Exposition grounds in Charleston at the pier near the Woman's Building on the Exposition jjrounds. Not ten minutes ride from the centre of the city, by trolley, will bring to view the towers, domes and mina- rets, the columns, facades and spires of the beautiful Ivory City. Here all through the winter the perfumes of roses scents the air ; green lawns and radiant beds of flowers flourish as in mid-summer and the visitor to this fair land of wonders will enjoy the marvellous products of man's skill, may revel also in the sunshine and balmy air with which Grod has blessed this land of summer. PLA2sr OE GROUl^rDS. The general outline of the Exposition grounds is irregular, embracing two adjoining tracts which unite at the narrowest point. In shape the site of the Ivory 14 Official Guide S. C. I.-S, and W. I. Exposition. City has been compared to an hour-glass, to a butterfly and to many other things, but it is more like a wine- glass than an hour-glass, in reality. The railway sta- tion is Just at tJie entrance to the grounds, which is through covered ways connecting two pylons with the luain Administration Building, which, facing south-east stands just in the neck of the wineglass. There all visitors enter immediately the heart of the grounds, and stand at unce between the "Natural Section" and the "Art Section," by which names the architect des- cribes the part of the site occuping an old plantation on the banks of the Ashley, aud the part which includes the Washington Race Course of former days. To the west of the Administration Building, is the "Natural Section" or old plantation, lie the Art Palace, the Transportation and Machinery Buildings, the Woman's Building (the original old colonial plantation home) and the Negro Building all shaded by century old live oaks, besides the Avenue of States and Cities, includ- ing State Buildings, from New York, Penns^ilvania, i\iaryland, Illinois, Alaska, Missouri, etc., and City Buildings from Philadelphia, and Cincinnati, and also including Lake Juanita, covering 30 acres in extent which will contain "Electrical Island" with its booth and fountain, and upon whose dyke stands the building de- voted to the Fisheries Exhibit made by the government. To the east of the Administration Building in the base or foot of thy wineglass, is the Art Section or old Washington Eace Course, upon which the architect has created a wonderfully rich and harmonious group of architectural triumphs. Here is the Court of Palaces, covering 1,600,000 square feet, in which the Cotton Palace is the central and most imposing feature. On either hand of the Cotton Palace, connected by carved ,.,^ Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and W. I. Exposition, zj- colonnades and exedrse of most exquisite design, stand the Palace of Commerce or Liberal Arts BuiMing and the Palace of Agriculture oi- ;South Carolina State Kuilding. The distance through these buildings with connectiug corridors is one mile. In front of the Cot- ton Pakce a most artistic pe gola overlooks Sunken Gardens and Lake, surrounded by most beautiful gar- dens in full bloom. Across the line the Garden and Great Plaza is ihe Auditorium, just east of the Admin- istration Building. Just east of this is the West In- dia Building and further still to the east, the Midway occupying twenty-two acres of ground. South of the Administration Building, in the neck of the wineglass is the Minerals and Forestry Building. Most elaborate and ornamental band stands are placed upon the plaza, and in and about the Court of Palaces and Plaza are varied and most impressive groups of statuary especially designed jf or this Exposition. U. S. GOVERNMENT EXHIBITS. The Congress of the United States having made no appropriation to defray the cost of a Government Ex- hibit at the Charleston Exposition, it was for a time doubtful whether such an exhibit would be made. But through the good offices and personal interest of President McKinley, President Roosevelt and their Cabinet, as of the various heads of Departments at Washington, a full exhibit was finally obtained, the Exposition Company agreeing to defray the cost of its transfer to (Jharleston, to house it while here and to maintain the Government officers in charge, during the pciod of the Exposition. The long and spaciOus colonnades connecting the three t6 Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and IV. I. Exposthon. main buildings of the Court of Palaces were finally chosen as the home of the Government Exhibit, to- gether with the beautiful exedrse. One of these will be used as a Post Office and in the next will be placed the Post Office Exhibit. The departmental exhibits will include, besides the Post Office Exhibit, that of the War and Navy, Agriculture, Treasury and the different Bureaus of the State Department, The exhibit of the ]!!^ational Museum will be under the direction of the Smithsonian Institution. It will comprise the most select specimens from the wonder- fully rich collection of the Government at Washington and the entire exhibit made at Buffalo from the Philip- pines. LIVE STOCK. The South Carolina Inter-State and West Indian Ex- position has given more prominence in proportion to its size to the Live Stock and Dairy industry of the South than any other Exposition which has been held. Every breed that is generally known, or in other words recognized as a distinct breed has been given a full classification with but one or two exceptions and these are chiefly in the swine and sheep classes and are breeds that are now but little known. Turning to beef breeds first of all we will state that the Exposition has donated $525.00 to the breed, and the recognized breeds are Short-horns, Herefords, Aberdeen- Angus, Galloways, Red Polls, Devons and Polled Durhams. The Short- horn Association realizing the prominence of this Ex- position has also donated 1525 from their funds making over $1,000 to be competed for by this breed alone. Official Gtnde S. C. I.-S. and W. I. Exposition. ij When we turn to the dairy breeds, we find that the same amount is given to each breed, that is, $525, and in addition to this the American Jersey Cattle Club donated $1,000 for Charleston which was duplicated by the Exposition Company, making $2,000 to compete for in this breed alone. The breeds recognized are Jerseys, Holstein-Friesians, Guernseys, Ayrshires, Brown Swiss, Dutch Belted and French Canadians. When we come to swine we find that $425 has been appropriated for each class, and the recognized breeds are Berkshires, Poland-Chinas, Chester Whites, Victo- rias, Large York and Cheshires and Duroc- Jerseys. There are ten different breeds of sheep recognized, consisting of Shropshires, Southdowns, Dorsets, Oxford Downs, Hampshire Downs, Merinos, Cotswold, Eam- bouillets, (Leicester & Lincoln), and Cheviots, with $225 for each breed, and with $100 added by the Ameri- can Shropshire Registry Association and one-third lo each cash prize by the American Cotswold Record ; also special prizes by the American Oxford Down Record Association of $30 for exhibits from South Carolina. The buildings which are now being erected have been arranged to give ample protection, in fact all of the cattle barns are fully enclosed, with a liberal amount of light through the sashes ; and the hog and sheep pens are arranged in groups affording good protection with a very liberal overhang of the eaves. In fact the general design and construction of the buildings is such as has been approved and found satisfactory after many years of experience with the leading Central and Western fairs. The judging will be done in a special arena by ex- pert judges from the North and West and will be a i8 Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and W. J. Expositzoji. most interesting and instructive feature. By watching the judging of cattle one can appreciate the good points and see and learn why one animal is better than another. This great cattle show will commence upon the 6th of January and will close on the 20tli so as to leave three days with which to fit two large buildings with coops for the poultry show, after removing all of the stalls, etc. Another most attractive feature which has never been attempted exactly along these lines, is the working dairy and dairy barns with the trial forage plots at- tached. In here some eighty cows will be kept during the whole time of the Exposition, with a test of all of the available feeds in the South, and showing both the cost of production and the effects upon the milk flow, of these feeds. Fourteen acres adjacent have been seeded down in the various forage crops that are suit- able to the Southern climate and which furnish a good percentage of digestible albuminoids. They are sown on different plots and can be examined by the visitors, and the reports of the yield per acre and the milk which they produce will be given upon the completion of the work. Another important thing besides knowing how to feed a cow and how to construct a sanitary barn is the hygiene and proper handling of milk from the time it comes from the cow to the time it is marketed, as bottled milk, butter, cream, cheese, etc. To illustrate this the working dairy and the most up to date appli- ances will be kept in full operation under the control of Prof. H. J. Wing who will also be in charge of the dairy barns. This building is connected with the dairy building in which the general display of dairy appli- ances will be placed, with cold storage for the exhibits of butter, cheese and other dairy products. Many ap- Official Guidd S. C. I.-S. and W. I. Exposition. ig plications have already been received from young men in the South who wish to complete their dairy educa- tion here. In selecting the final staff for this work op- portunity will be given young men to acquire a valu- able experience from the five months course, besides being paid for their services. On the 33d of January the great poultry show will commence. At least three thousand birds from all over the South and many of the Northern and Western States are expected. The prominence which this show has taken is indicated by the fact that the American Poultry Association have voted to meet in Charleston, the first time they have gone south in ten years. The reception committee of which Mr. J. A. Ball is chair- man, will arrange a banquet and a suitable entertain- ment in the way of interesting excursions for the mem- bers of this association and the visiting poultrymen^ and it is hoped that this may be followed by a general convention of chicken cranks in the South. The premium lists can be secured by writing to the Manager of Live Stock Department, Geo. F. Weston, whose address will be from the 1st of December, care of the Exposition, Charleston. ILLUMIlSrATIOlsr. The main electrical feature of the Exposition centres in the building illumination and the electrical booth and electrical island in Lake Juanita. The architectural theme of the buildings lends itself admirably to the exterior illumination, and the principal lines and facades of all the principal buildings are beau- tifully accentuated by rows of incandescent lights. The electrical booth represents the Southern Hemi- Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and W. I. Exposztzotu sphere built up of gorgeously colored art glass, with Charleston located in Jewels. The water is thrown up on the inside in the form of a geyser and illuminated by color screens from underneath. The electrical effects in the Sunken Garden are unique and delicately fashioned. The water flows int© the lake through the pipes of a Macmonies' Pan. In the centre of the Garden is a group representing the Tri- umph of Electricity over Water Power, while the entire outline of both shores is outlined in gaily colored lamps. The general lighting of the grounds is furnished by arc lamps supported on lamp-posts designed in keeping with the general theme of Spanish Eenaissance. U. S. MAEINE CORPS. Arriving at the Pan-American Exposition June 6th, a detachment of marines under command of. Captain Henry Lenoard, pitched camp just east of the Gov- ernment Building where they remained as guards of the Naval Exhibit and representatives of the U. S. M. 0. until the close of the Exposition. This company is composed for the most part of men with wide and varied experience as soldiers. Nearly all of them served either in Cuba,fPorto[^Rico or the Philippines during the Spanish-American war, and many of them were in China during the seige. Capt. Lenoard, their commander, lost his arm during the Chinese trouble, and is one of the bravest young officers in service to-day. Several times a week the marines wilFgive exhibition drills as they did at the Pan in Buffalo, which will be well worth seeing, as they received the praise of every one that witnessed them.

Gilbert, Architect-in-Chiel Exposition Company. The architectural features of the South Carolina Inter-State and West Indian Exposition are carried out with a typical Southern motif throughout, which is the predominating characteristic of the whole architectural treatment. The ground area, comprising over two hundred acres, is divided into the Art, Natural, Transportation, Live Stock and Midway Sections. The Art Section is the most prominent of all, comprising about forty acres forming the Court of Palaces, surrounded by the principal structures. The centre is treated with the old Italian and Spanish effects of a Sunken Garden with tropical plants, fountains, bridges, etc., while in front of the main buildings wide plazas, covered with asphalt, are designed to form a framing for the entire picture, the inter- vening space being filled with green slopes, lawns, rare plants 24 Official Guide S. C. J.-S. and W. I. Exposition. and foliage of every description. Besides the palmetto and oleander trees, one of the only five large date palms in America crowns the slope at the end of the Garden. The Cotton Palace forms the central and prominent feature of the architectural scheme, being flanked on both sides by the Palaces of Commerce and Agriculture, with circular connect- ing colonnades, in which are housed the United States Government Exhibits, and a portion of which are open where they adjoin the central exedrags and flanking pylons. These three main Palaces, with the adjoining colonnades, cover a length of practically a mile, where visitors can walk under cover at all times if desired. Opposite :the Cotton Palace at the extreme northerly end of the Court of Palaces is located the Auditorium, seating about 4,000 people, the upper portion of which is arranged as an open Roof Garden or Pergola, from which extensive views can be had over the entire Exposition Grounds. Directly in front of the Auditorium is a large plaza, at the axis lines of which, on the left, is located the Bazaar and Entrance to the Midway Section; on the right the circular building devoted to Minerals and Forestry, and the plaza passing the Administration Building and entrance gateways connecting with the Natural Section. The Admin- istration Building is located at the central line of the actual site, a rotunda' fifty feet in diameter being provided for recep- tions, while the wings at right angles are. devoted to the use of officials. On the outside of the grounds, at the Adminis- tration Building, on one side are brought all of the terminal railways and a union station provided for the same. On the opposite side the Consolidated Street Railway Company's station, so that only one entrance and exit are located, where all the visitors are brought in 'at the front door. The entire architectural treatment of the Art Section has been carried out in the rich and beautiful type of Spanish Renaissance, the details being finely modelled and most effective. The entire color scheme of the Court of Palaces has been carried out in rich old ivory tints with the carvings, mouldings, turrets, minarets, etc., of the buildings enriched with harmonizing colors. The Natural Section contains the Art Palace, a fireproof Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and IV. I. Exposition. 2j structure, carried out in classic design; the Woman's Building and Annex, an old colonial homestead, which has been standing for several hundred years on the beautiful shores of the broad Ashley River, while this entire section is covered with magnificent live oak trees, pecan trees, Cherokee rose bushes and other Southern foliage, in a growth which would require hundreds of years to reproduce, and which the mocking birds enjoy to the fullest extent. Lake Juanita, dividing the Natural Section from the Transportation Section, covers an area of about forty acres, with beautiful wooded shores and banks. It also contains the Electrical Fountain and the wide arched bridge with the Electrical Booth and Electric Fountains, erected at the centre, upon an island of considerable width. The various State and City Buildings, the Negro Building, United States Government Fisheries exhibit, etc., are also located on the Natural Section, connected by wide asphalt walkways, designated as the "Avenue of States and Cities." Another special feature of this Section is the "Lover's Lane," a beautiful grove of live oaks, in the midst of which has been laid out an Italian Garden where many well known and much admired antiques have been erected of ap- propriate subjects. Also at various axis points throughout the grounds other antiques, imported for the occasion, have been erected. This section also contains the Race Track and Grand Stand. The Garden of Eden was discovered and has been absolutely located adjoining the Women's Building and there seems to be scientific foundation for the exactlocation at this point. The Transportation Section across Lake Juanita, contains the Machinery and Transportation Buildings, Power House and other appropriate structures. The Live Stock Section contains some large and modern structures designed for this special purpose, and will prove most interesting to all lovers of fine live stock. The Midway Section contains all of the well known displays and prominent exhibits which have done so much toward making the Expositions at Chicago and Buffalo famous and de- lightful for those'who enjoy amusement with the more serious side of exhibts. The entire management of the Grounds and 26 Official Guide 5. C. I.-S. and W. I. Exposition. Buildings Department in the case of this Exposition was placed in the sole charge of the Architect-in-Chief and has been carried out under his personal supervision. What has been accomplished within limited time and appropriation must be seen and examined to be appreciated. An attempt has been made not to furnish the largest exhibit for the least outlay, but the most perfect in design, motif, technique and appropriateness possible, as meeting all requirements and existing conditions. As selected by the Architect-in-Chief, the various detail portions of the work have been placed in the hands of most competent assistants. Not least in import- ance has been the original sculpture and statuary designed and modelled for this particular Exposition, which has been made on the grounds; also the beautiful effects in landscape gardening and tropical foliage, as well as the electric and other fountains and the electric lighting of the facades and domes of the principal structures; in addition to which a scheme has been designated by which the entire Court of Palaces will be illuminated by night by powerful search lights, in varying tones of most delicate color.

The Cottoa Palace is the most imposing of the buildings of the South Oarolina Inter-State and West Indian Exposition. It covers upwards of 50,U(J0 square feet of floor space, and is about 350 feet in length. The Cotton Palace forms the central building of the three which, together with their connecting collonades, form the Court of Palaces. One feature of liiia Palace is a magnificent por- tico which overlooks the Sunken Garden with its lake. In the centre an imposing dome rises to a height of more than 150 feet. In this building will be shown the products of the cotton mills of the country, and, as South Carolina is the.leading cotton manufac- turing State in the South, and second in the Union, th's display is most complete and attractive. The principal feature in the Cot- ton Palace is an operating exhibit of textile machinery. 34 Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and W. I. Exposmon. THE PALACE OF AGRICULTUBE. The Palace of Ag:rioulture of the South Carolina Inter-State and West Indian Exposition forms one of the group of buildings which, together with their connecting colonnades, form the Court of Palaces, the other buildings in this group being the Cotton Palace and the Palace of Commerce. The Palace cf Agriculture con- tains 43,000 square feet of floor space. Like the Palace of Commerce, it has a central dome, and four smaller towers on the corners of the building. In addition, there are two still smaller towers on either side of the gable over the main entrance All these towers are rounded instead of being square, as is the ease with those of the Palace of Commerce. This Palace contains farm crops and all exhibits pertaining to horticulture, including pomology, floricul- ture and viticulture, together with literature and statistics relat- ing to the same. In this building is shown the exhibit made by the State of South Carolina, especially, and in the annex is dis- played agricultural machinery and appliances. imii Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and W. I. Exposttton j^ THE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING. The Adminiptration Building of the^South Carolina Inter-State and West Indian Exposition occupies a most commanding site. It is placed just between the Natural and Art Parks, and is de- signed in such a manner as to be equally effective from all sides. The building is composed of a central tower and two flanking wings, placed at nearly right angles, the extreme end of which are the pylons connected with the main building by a covered way. These covered ways form the entrances and exits to and from the ^ i^^ «1*?. '- -t .^..^---L .5 r, • .-.-■?. Mi,^ i '■^ ,.^'"^^1 ■! 1 , 3^^^mi \ ' * ek. ; ,^ 9t'; 4^f s\ ^"^"B "■^P^^ grounds. The entire length of the building and entrances is over 400 feet. The central dome and rotunda are 75 feet in diameter, and extend' about 40 feet above the roof to a height of about 75 feet above ground. The striking feature of this building is a great round balcony which projects boldly jinto theigrounds. The Administration Building is devoted to Exposition Offices for the various 'departments. Here all the business^of the Expo- sition City is conducted, and the rotunda, with its overhanging gallery supported by richly decorated columns, is a beautiful fea- ture of the interior. j6 Official Gmde S. C. I.-S and W. 1. Exposition. THE AUDITORIUM. At the left of the Administration Building, and at the northern end of the Court of Palaces, is the Auditorium, capable of seating about four thousand people, with an exceedingly large platform arranged for the accommodation of one of the largest organs ever constructed, made by MoUer, of Hagerstown, Maryland, especially for the Exposition at Charleston. The seats are sloping, the aisles are ample and the building is surrounded with outside pas- .^1 'w sageways, connecting with all aisles. The acoustics Lave been given considerable attention, and it is expected that oratorio and symphony concerts will be given in this building, which will at- tract a large gathering of lovers of music The outside of the building, towards the Court, is circular in form, the decorations are symbolical of the uses for which the building is designed, and the southern end contains an open pergola, reached by outside stairways, from which a fine view of the Court of Palaces and Sunken Garden can be had.

Exposition, ™^ THE PALACE OP COMMERCE, ' The Palace of Commerce, or Liberal Arts Building, of the South Carolina Inter-State and West Indian Exposition contains 43,' 00 square feet of floor space. It is one of the three Palaces, which are connected in semi-circular form by colonnades, to form the Court of Palaces, the other buildings being the Cotton Palace and Palace of Agriculture. Like the Palace of Agriculture it has a central dome, and smaller towers and turrets, emphasizing the entrances. The Palace of Commerce contains manufactured pro. ducts of various sorts, other than textiles, foods and their acces- sories, ordnance and munitions of war, ceramics, gold and silver ware, and ethnological and archteological exhibits. Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and W. I. Exposition. THE MACHINERY BUILDING. The Machinery Building of the South Carolina Inter-State and West Indian Exposition is designed on lines somewhat similar to those of the Transportation Buildiog, and like it, stands on the northern side of Lake Juanita. It is a long, low building, with a loggia consisting of many arches and columns, simple and yet massive in outline, most of the ornamentation being confined to a central porch which forms the entrance, and above which a gable shows the picturesque curves of the Spanish Renaissance type, which is again recalled in the deeply corrugated roof of Spanish tile. In this building is shown machinery of all kinds, with the ex- ception of the machinery used in the manufacture of textiles, which is shown in the Cotton Palace. The exhibit includes among many other kinds, machinery for the genpration and trans- mission of power, machinery for controlling, conveying and measur- ing air, gases and liquids; machinery and appliances ;for control- ing fire; machinery for working wood, metals, clay, stone and glass, and much literature and history concerning all these. Of course, an important part of the exhibit made in this building is the wonderful inventions of electrical appliances," which include every department of the science of electricity, and give much his- tory concerning all discoveries and inventions which have been made along this line.

The Transportation Building of the South Carolina Inter-State and West Indian Exposition stands on the north side of Lake Juanita, near the Machinery Building. It is a long, low structure, with a deep roof covered with tepanish tiles, and it has many arches and columns, of massive simplicity of design, the entire or- namentation of the building being masked on the gable above, and s^s^7"S_S'l,Sj"?^ nUfitt on either side of the entrance, which shows the graceful curves which belong to the Spanish Renaissance. In this building are shown the latest devices in railways, operated by steam ^and elec- tricity; elevated, surface and underground; vehicles variously moved by horse, electric, steam, gasoline, compressed air or other power, and vessels for mercantile or pleasure service, together with the history and literature relating to the same. Here is also shown the Good Roads exhibit. Official Gmde S. C I -S. and W. I. Exposition. ^5 MINERALS AND FORESTRY. Opposite the Administration Building, on the axis line of the main plaza, separating the two sections of the grounds, stands the Minerals and Forestry Building, circular in form, designedafter some of the quaint old palaces of Spain, and Italy, one- story in height, windows high above the ground, deeply recessed and filled in with wrought grilles. Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and W. I. Exposition. ^7 THE WAYSIDE INN. In the Wayside Inn, in the Midway, will be found not only a comfortable resting place with a log fire in the great farmer's fire- place on cold days, but a unique collection of china, pewter, pictures, old books and qnaint antique furniture, and in the midst, Prisciila, the spinner, with her wool wheel either spinning wool or yarns for the entertainment of the gnests, while all sorts of good home cooked food will always be ready for weary pilgrims. This wo k is a reproduction of a most successful New England farmer's home of "ye olden tyme," erected in the grounds of the Philadelphia Centennial in 1876, and another in Chi( ago in 1893. Its movin? spirit, a descendant o£ the Pilgrim settlers in the Massa- chusetts New England Colony, traveling extensively abroad, visiting as a foreign correspondent for several journals the most, inoport- ant expositions of the Old World, found in the very perfect illus- tratioa of peasant life, especially in the Hungarian 100'''th year anniversary so interesting a study, that the thought matured into action, presented to the visitors at Philadelphia and Chicago the sa-Tie idea in the form of an illustration of a life in our early days, when a log cabin was the common home for all classes, and the great fire-place with its accompanying kettle, the gathering place for old and young. And now a Colonial farm house is finding a place in the midst of the curious gathering of nationalities in our Charleston Mid- way, where kind women will gladly minister to the comfort of visitors — where the latch-string will be always out and a generous hospitality will be estended to all who may find a shelter under its roof. EXPOSITION ENTRANCES. The Exposition entrances are three in number, two at the Ad- ministration Building, one on the east and one on the north, and one at the Machinery Building at the northern limit of the Expo- sition grounds. Service gate^ have been provided on Moultrie street, near the rear of the Cotton Palace, for the use of the deliv- ery wagons serving the Concessionaries and exhibitors on the grounds, but through this service gate no persons will be admit- ted to the grounds .

The Palace of Arts stands on the natural section, not being far from the Woman's Building and near the shore of the Ashley Eiver. It is of purely classical design, and entirely of brick, of fireproof construction. It is 140 feet long, SO feet wide and the height of the interior walls is 30 feet. A very large skylight, 24 feet wide extends the entire length of the building, giving ample light to display the art treasures which it contains. Four groups form the Dewey Arch: "War," "Peace," "The Army" and "The ^^fc-. A Navy," adorn the exterior on th^east and west. The entrance is on the east, with a flight of low steps. The color scheme har- monizes with the other buildings of the Exposition, and the Palace of Art, while less ornate than the structures of "Spanish Keniiis- sance" architecture whir^h stands in the Art section, is most dig- nified and satisfying, with the simple and massive outlines and splendid groups of statuary. The finest display of American art ever made in this country has been collected by Mr. Jamts Bliss Townsend, of New York, Art Director of the Exposition, and the exhibit of Colonial or early American art is of exceptional excellence. so Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and IV. I. Exposition. THE WOMAN'S BUILDING. Passing from the main thoroughfares of "the Ivory City." into what may perhaps be called its suburb, the eye of the visitor is imineLliati-ly attracted by the Colonial dwell- ing built about 1750, situated in a grove of Southern live oaks, a most picturesque location on the banks of the Ashley River, the pennant flying from the roof tree, announces this as the " Woman's Building;" the interior will prove as attractive as the exterior. In rooms on either side of the hallway, fitted up in colo- nial fashion, may be seen antiques, etc., which are only to be met with now in loan collections. The wide hall devoted to the his- torical collection will amply repay a visit from the student of his- tory. In the annex is the well appointed restaurant known as the "Carolina Rice Kitchen," where this cereal for which South Caro- Official Gtiide S. C. I.-S. and W. I. Exposition. ji Una has ever been famous, will be so daintily cooked, that most visitors will become converts to rice as an arlinleof daily food, and desire to be iostructtd as to the true Southern method of jircpHra- tion. The menu uf this restaurant is by no means confined to rice, bat will always pre-ent attractive dishes to suit all tastes, under the care of some of Charleston's most notable housewives; those who go once, will certainly return often. j The sales room on the upper floor has a charming display of woman's handiwork, both useful and ornamental, all put at prices that will induce purchasers. Here will be found the mo^t attractive line of Exposition souvenirs; the ladies in charge will do their utmost to iralisfy the tastes of all. A praccical display of silk culture in many of its workings will doubtless inteie&t many. Aq up-to-date Day Nursery, under the care of trained Kinder- garteners is another of the important features of the Woman's Buildiag; here parents may leave their little ones, whose wants of all kinds, diet, especiilly, will be carefully looked after, and they made happy until called for by their parents. The collective exhibits from the counties of South Carolina and others of her sister States, are very valuable, representing as they do the work of women in all departments. The exhibit of patents and in/entious is somewhat of a revelation, this being compara- tively a new field for women. This is only a partial list o£ the many attractions to be founrl in the Woman's Building, which will bd open at all times to vi?itors, where they will be privilegtd to rest, and will always find a warm welcome awaiting them. Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and W. I. Exposttzon. THE NEGRO DEPARTMENT OF THE SOTTH CAROLINA INTER- STATE AND WEST INDIAN EXPOSITION. The building is the Spanish Renaissance style of architec- ture, one- story high, and is situated to the extreme west of the grounds, between the Race Course and the Ashley River. Immediately in front of the building looking west, is a magni- ficent grove of live oaks; the automobile driveway borders it on the south, and the Woman's Building and Palace of Fine Arts stand to the north and northwest. Entering the building from the front, the visitor will first be attracted by the fine Agricultural Exhibit, which stands on the left of the main [aisle, and occupies a space 40 feet square. Almost 80 per cent, of the Negroes in the South Atlantic and Gulf Stales livebyfarmmg, and the Management of the Negro Department wisely decided to give considerwble prominence to this agricultural feature. On the other side of the main entrance and filling half the building is the Educational Exhibit, instructive and interest- ing. Among the more prominent institutions represented are Claflin University, Orangeburg, S. 0. ; Scotia Seminary, Concord, N. C. ; The Agricultural and Mechanical College, Greensboro, N. C; The State College, Orangeburg, S. C. ; Biddle University, Charlotte, N. C; Tuskegee Institute, Tuskegee, Ala., Hampton Institute, Hampton, Va. ; and the Maharry Medical College, Nash- ville, Tenn. The A merican Missionary Association has a collective exhibit from the following schools under its care; Pisk University, Official Guide S. C. /.-J>. .uid IV. I. Exposition. jj Nashville, Tenn. ; Toogaloo University, Toogaloo, Miss.; Straight University, New Orleans, La. ; Talladega College, Talladega, Ala.; The Joseph K. Brick Agricultural and Mechanical College, Enfield, N. C. ; and the Avery Institute of Charleston. The colored public schools of Charleston have some interesting specimens in this Educational section. In the Northern wing of the building are the Woman's Bureau, the Washington City collective exhibit, and collective exhibits from Charleston, Baltimore, Richmond, Chicago and Atlanta. The displays of bone carving; of bells, of rustic work and of the colored publishing houses, also in this section of the building, deserve close observation. No feature of the Negro exhibit should receive more consideration than that placed by the Charleston Tinners Union. The Fisheries Exhibit, which will occupy a special building on the dyke between Lake Juanita and the Ashley River, will be the best ever made. It will show, in addition to a very full collection of fish, various modes of fish propagation and boats, and all ap- paratus used by fishermen. LAKE JUANITA. Among the attractive features of the Exposition Grounds will be Lake Juaaiti, covering an area of ground thirty-five acres and set like a jewel in the midst of the architectural triumphs of the "Natural Section," on the dyke which forms the western limit of the lake will be pl-ieedthe Government Fisheries Building and ex- tending across the lake from the Machinery Suilding to the high bluff upon which are situated the Philadelphia City Building and the New York State Building, will be a most artistic bridge, consisting of five arches, in the midst of which will be placed 1 he Electical Island from which the illumination of the Lake will be directed. Across the southern border of the Lake immediately in front of the Maryland i3uilding, will be another approach of strikingly beautiful outline. S4 Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and W. I. Exposition.

This Church 8o Official Guide S. C. I,-S. and W. I. Exposittou. is more frequently "visited than any other place in Charleston. From its steeple an excellent view of the city is obtained. The church is opened to visitors daily. St. Philip's Church, Church St., above Queen. — The present edifice was built in 183S. Many interesting moi.utuents are in the church yard, the most ]irominent being that of Carolina's gieatest son, John C. Calhoun. The Huguenots, French Protastent Cliurch, Southeast C«»rner Church and Queen Sts.— Among the first settlers of the Province, there were French Protestants, and in 1680 some others arrived. But the principal and largest immigration of Huguenots was in the year iminediately following the Revdcation of the Edict of Nantes, ( 1 685) . Roman Catholic Cathedral, St. Finbar's, Broad Street — Corner-stone laid in 1853 and the Church dedicated 1854. It was the handsomest church building in Charleston, was destroyed in the great fire, December, 1861, since which time the services have been conducted in the Cathedral Chapel on Queen Street. In 1881 a large bequest was made by a member of the congrega- tion and the building now in process of erection was begun on the same design as the former one. The Citadel, Marion Square. — The idea of a State Military School to take the place of the company of soldiers kept as a mag- azine guard at the Citadel in Charleston and the Arsenal in Col- umbia, originated with Governor John P R'chardson in 1841, and by 1843 the schools were established, separately at fi'st, but soon united under one control. The Academy soon rose to a high place among the educational institutions of the South, and its graduates have occupied the most conspicuous places in military and civil life. The battery which fired on the "Star of the West"' whsn she attempted to relieve Fort Sumter in 1861, was manned by the Citadel Cadets. The cadets served on all occasions of emer- gency in and around Charleston during the war, and in December, 1864, went into active service, and so continued until the close of hostilities. On Marion Square may be seen a specimen of the old "Tapia," or more commonly called "Tabby" work, part of the old Revolu- tionary lines of defence. 82 OJiczal Guide b. C. I.-S. and W. 1. Exposition. The Porter Military Academy.— The extensiveand beautiful grounds and substantial buildings of the old United States Arsenal, occupying the square bounded by Ajhley Avenue, Bee, President and Doughty Streets, are the home of the Porter Military Academy, known up to 1886 as the Holy Communion Church Institute. This invaluable institution was established in 1867 by the Rev. A. Toomer Porter, D. D., Rector Church of the Holy Communion, to provide free education to some of the many youths througnout the State, and especially in the low country, who were without the means of prosecuting their studies. The school was at first established in a house belonging to Dr. Porter adjoining the church. In 1880, by the aid of friends in Washington, the Arsenal grounds were turned ever to the school. College of Charleston, George, Greeu, St. Philip and College. — The College was chartered in 1785, and established in a brick building on the line of College Street used by the British during the Revolution as barracks, and after that by the Rev. Robert Smith, (afterwards first Bishop of South Carolina) as a school-house. The first commencement was in 1794, In 1828 a new building was erected, to which was added subsequently, ex- tensive wings. The College has been the '■'Alma Mater'" oi many of the most distinguished citizens of the State. It is well equipped and possesses a remarkably fine Museum of Natural His- tory, as well as an excellent Library, chiefly of classical literature. Medical College of the State of South Carolina, Queen Street, was chartered in 1853, succeeding a School of Medicine organized in 1832, under the auspices of the Medical Society of South Carolina. The High School, N. W. Cor. Meeting and George Streets, is a City Institution for classical education. The Memminger School. — The highest in grade of the public schools is the Memminger School, named in honor of the late Hon. C. Gr. Memminger, one of the principal founders of the system, organized on the principle of the Normal schools, for girls only. It is at the corner of St. Philip and Beaufain Streets, a large and elegant building with the most spacious and best laid out grounds of any of the public schools of the city. — iSACENT FORs— White Star Line.

The Crafts' School.— Named for Mr. William Crafts, an ardent advocate of public education in his time, is on Friend Street, just above Broad. The Conrtenay School. — So named in honor of Ex-Mayor William A. Conrtenay, stands on the east side of Meeting Street, between Wragg and Mary Streets. The Shaw Memorial School is on the north side of Mary Street. It was founded by Northerners for colored children and named in honor of Col. Albert D, Shaw, of the United Spates Army. It has now been incorporated into the regular public school system of the city. The Siinonton School. — Named for Hon. Charles H. Simon- ton, Chairman of the Board of School Commissioners, at the south- west corner of Morris and Jasper Streets, is one of the public schools for colored cliildren. The Old Post Office, Formerly the "Exchange," Foot of Broad St. — In 1767 an Act was passed by the General Assembly for the building of an "Exchange and Custom House and New Watch House for the service of the Government." The work was completed in 1771, and the building used as an Exchange for the merchants of the city and for a Custom House. During the occupation of Charleston by the British, 1780-81, it was taken for the "Provost" of the commandant and the cellars were used as a prison for the citizens arrested by the military au- thorities. In one of these cellars Col. Isaac Hayne was confined and thence led to execution. Gen. Washington appeared before the citizens of Charleston on the steps of tliis building on his visit to the city in 1791, and the grand concert and ball given in his honor was held here. Pringle House, West Side of King St., Second Above LamboU. — This is one of the oldest houses in Charleston, and is pi'obably the best preserved and most elegant specimen of Colonial architecture. It was built by Miles Brewton about 1765. He, with his whole family, was lost at sea and the house passed to his 86 Official Guide S. C. I.-S. afid IV. I. Exposition. three sisters, one of whom, Mrs. Rebecca Motte, famous in Revo- lutionary story, was living in it at the time of the occupation of the city by the British — 1781-2. The house was taken by Sir Henry Clintoa as headquarters, and after him by Lord Rawdon. The William Washington House.- The large wooden house at the northwest corner of South Battery and Church Street, now the residence of Mr. R. B Dowie, belongs to the Colonial period, and was the property of Colonel William Washington, of Revolu- tionary fame. It was here 1 hat Mrs. Washington, in 1827, pre- sented her husband's battle flag — the famous Eutaw flag — to the Washington Light Infantry. Judge Hey ward's House, Wliere Washington was Enter- tained, is No. 87 Church Street, west side, above Tradd, The Old Magazine, Cumbei'land St.— A curious relic of Continental days is a small octagonal brick building with four gables and tile-covered roof, standing ruinous in an obscure lot in Cumberland Street. This was a powder magazine, built as early as 1770. 1766-1770— The Statue of Win. Pitt, in Washington Square, Corner Broad and Meeting Sts., is a peculiarly inter- esting Revolutionarv relic. Its history is briefly but clearly given on the two panels of its base. The Court House, N. W. Corner Broad and Weeting Streets, was built in 1788. The exterior has remained unchanged ex- cept by the shifting of the main entrance. City Hall, N. E. Corner Broad and Meeting, was erected as a bank in 1801, afterwards purchased by the City, to be used as a City Hall. The Charleston Orphan House, Calhoun Street.— This noble charity has enlisted the sympathy and received the aid of the citizens of Charleston more liberally and continuously than any other institution within its limits. On lith November, 1793, the corner-stone of the building was laid, and two years later the institution was opened, and one hundred and fifteen orphan chil dren received into it. In 1855 the present much enlarged and beautiful building was completed. ^^,^^ --Z^X^zr^ , AN'D .. t¥EM AND AIIJIIINIJM N©¥EtTIES F&E ^AEB INj TBB Ciiiww Miliiit iiiiiF &E AW TMEIM ^TOEE, *;-._ mmtmm oi mi iiiimio mmm m mimwufmL Official Gtiide S.

Boats leave the city every day in the winter months for tourists to visit the famous Fort Sumter. The William Enston Home, King Street near Exposition grounds. The grandest charitable bequest ever made in Charles- ton was that of William Enston, a native of Canterbury, England, who came to Charleston in 1834 and died in 1860, having amassed a very large fortune. By his w'll he provided that the entire income of his estate should be enjoyed by his widow, Mrs. Hannah Enston, subject to the payment of certain legacies and annuities, and that upon her death and the extinction of the annuities the whole es- tate should go to the City of Charleston for the founding of a Hospital for Old and Infirm Persons. Tomb of John C. CalbouD, St. Philip's Chur^.h-yard. Charleston's Resorts AND Pleasure Grounds. Magnolia Cemetery. — Situated just beyond the city boun- dary, three miles from the Court House, endeared to residents by many solemn associations, is of much interest to strangers from the beauty of the grounds and the many striking memorials of the distinguished sons of Charleston who rest there. The first monu- ment which arrests the attention of the visitor is that of the Con- federate dead. It is a finely executed bronze figure of a soldier in the Confederate uniform, upon a square pedestal of granite twenty Great Tree iu Magnolia Cemetery. feet high. Around it are eight hundred headstones marking the resting place of soldiers who died in the defence of Charleston, and of a number whose remains were brought from the field of Gettys- burg through the efforts of a lady of the city. The Confederate monument is the work of the women of Charleston, and is a noble evidence of their patriotism and devotion. Among many worthy of attention may be mentioned the monu- ment of Col. William Washington, of Revolutionary fame, erected ^i^': official Ginde S. C. I.S. and W. I. Expasition. by the Washington Light Infantry; that of Hugh S. Legare, one of South Carolina's most gifted sons, and the beautiful obelisk erected by the survivors of the Charleston Light Dragoons to their comrades who fell in the war. Mount Pleasant — -With its high bluff of yellow sand and its background of dark foliage, forms a very pretty picture. This village was originalJy a summer resort for the planters of Christ Church Parish, but its healthy climate and pleasant si^^uation soon induced a number of the bjsiness men of the city to adopt it as a retreat. Although not possessing the fine beach and surf of Sul- livaa's Island, it gets as much of the cool sea-breeze, and has the advantage of easy access to the surrounding country, affording pretty walks and drives, and during the winter season a fine field for the sportsman, Sullivan's Island, Moultrieville, A tlanticville.— Sulli- van's Island has long been a favorite resoti for Charleston ians, and for many years before the war each summer presented a scene of much gaiety and fashion there. In the military operations dur- ing the war the buildings were demolished, but since that time the growth of Moultrieville has been very rapid. An elegant hotel, the Atlantic Beach, provides accommodation for visitors. The establishment of a garrison for Foit Moultrie and the new fortifications erected as part of the coast defences, has added much to the life of the Island. Quite recently a new settlement, " A tlanticville," has been made near the eastern end of the island, a portion not before inhabited, and many residences have already been built. This is a result of the running of the Seashore Railroad through the Island. Sulli- van's Island has a very fine beach over three miles long, and safe and delightful surf-bathing. The Isle of F alms.— Across Br?aeh Inlet from Sullivan's Island, and directly facing the ocean, is the "Isle of Palms," for- merly Long Island, not yet a place of residence, but one of the finest sea-side resorts on the Atlantic Coast. The island has a broad and perfectly smooth beach eight miles in length, sloping so gently that surf -bathing is possible at any stage of the tide ; the interior is covered with a dense grove of palmettoes, live oaks and gb Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and W. I. Exposition. other trees native to the region and presents an almost tropical appearance. Soon after the establishment of the electric railway system a company was formed for the purchase and development of this island and their work has been well done. An immense pavilion has been erected looking out upon the ocean; to this are attached excellently arranged sets of dressing rooms for bathers, a first-class restaurant, refreshment stands, etc. A steeple-chase, carousal, Ferris-wheel, and all ihe attachments of a modern re- sort are also at hand. 1 he Hotel Seashore, a small but thoroughly appointed hotel, stands about a hundred yards from the Pavilion and Railroad Station. Cliicora Park.— In 1894. Ihe City Council wisely looking to the future, availed themselves of the opportunity to purchase a tract of between five and fix hundred acres of land on the Cooper River, about four miles above the city lioQits for a public park, giv- ing it the name of Chicora Park. Part of this tract consisted of what was known as the old TurnbuU place, once the property of a prominent-, family, a distinguished member of which was Robert J. Turnbull, a leader in the Nullification movement. Here is an old-fashioned residence surrounded by the beautiful woods of the low country and with a terraced walk leading down to the river. The Electric Railway Company extended its lines to the Park, leased part of the grounds and erected handsome and convenient buildings for restaurant, dance hall, etc., and established a quick and regular car service, with the result tha*-, the park is now a most popular resort both summer and winter. The ride of about forty five minutes through the flourishing truck farms with this beautiful spot as its terminus affords a most refreshing glimpse of the country. The Avork of improvement is being constantly car- ried on and Chicora bids fair to be one of the most beautiful suburban parks in the country. The city has sold a part of this tract to the United States 'Government for the purpose of building a Naval Station, which will be made one of the finest in the woild. Magnolia- ou-tlie- Ashley —About fifteen miles from the city— a wonderfully .beautiful spot, whose peculiar features can be found nowhere else in the country.

C. I.-S. and W. L Exponhon. St. Andrew's Church — Among the relics of early days in Carolina stands the Parish Church of St. Andrew's. This parish was laid ofE in 1706, and a plain bri(jk church b lilr. In 1733 this was added to, making it in the form of a cross, forty feet long by fifty-two wide, with a handsome chancel twelve feet deep and twenty-f our feet wide; it was neatly finished and had commodious pews. At the west end was a gallery originally intended for those who had no pews, but aftet wards ai^propriated to the colored people. At the east end was a large window and another on each side of the Communion Table. Ihis church was destroyed by fire and rebuilt in 1764, and now remains one of the few which have escaped the vicissitudes of two revolutions. This churr-h is only about eight miles from the city and a drive across the Ashley River Bridge and through the beautiful country well repays the visitor. Ooose Creek Church. — A most interesting spot in the neigh- borhood of Charleston is the old Church of St. James' Goose Creek, situated in tlie midst of a beautiful couniry, surrounded by Goose Creek Church, many objects which excite the interest of the traveller and con- nected by many associations with the history of the State in all its stages. This hfls the advantage too of being easily accessible from the Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and IV. I. Exposition. gg city. Taking the A.tlantic Coast Line the excursionist is landed at Otranto Station, fifteen miles from Charieston, on the grounds of the Otranto Club. This beautiful place, with its delightful resi- dence, was once the property of the well-known botanist, Dr. Garden, the correspondent of Linnieus, and after whom the great naturalist named our beautiful Gardenia. A walk of about a mile takes us across Goose Creek Bridge, along a whiding road to the Church, a handsome, rough cast brick build- ing, a short distauee from the creek. It has four arch windows and a door on each side, with a cherub in stucco, on each key- stone; over the west door is a pelican feeding her young; at the east end is a large wind(jw in front of which is the chancel, in which stand the altar, pulpit and reading desk; over this window the Royal Arms of England still stand in high relief. The sides of the altar are ornamented with four Corinthian pilisters support- ing a cornice, and between them are Tables of the Decalogue, Apostles' Creed and Lord's Prayer. The roof is supported by four Doric columns, and on the walls are several marble tablets in memory of the early m-^mbars of the congregation. Among them one commemorates the virtues of the Hon. Ralph Izard, for many years one of the learling men of the State and a gentleman of great ability and high culture. Siiminerville — Is about twenty-two miles from Charleston, on the line of the Southern Railway, and in the midst of the pine woods. It is situated on a ridge which extends across from the Cooper to the Asliley River, and which is remarkable for its health- fulness. The climate is very agreeable, in winter being out of the influence of the east winds, which frequently prevail on the coast, the temperature is mild and equable, and in summer though the days are warm, a delicious coolness pervades the atmosphere at night which insur-s refreshing sleep. From these causes it is particularly beneficial to invalids or persons convalescing' from illness. The many advantages which Summerville possesses are being rapidly realized, and each year the population is increasing. There are several excellent boarding houses, besides the mag- nificent Pine Forest Inn and Dorchester Inn, which are gen- erally full. Churches of all the religious denominations, good schools, and a well supplied market, furnish all the requisites for comfortable and pleasant living, and many loo Official Guide S. C. I.-S. and W. 2. Exposition. families induced by these advantages, and by the cheapness of house rents, are taking up their residence there. As the Southern Railway runs special trains for the aecGmmodation of the residents, it is perfectly convenient for business men, who find it a great relief, after the fatigues of a day in the city, to retreat to the quiet of Summerville. The country abounds with game, and the Summerville men have Tower of Dorchester, always been renowned as hunters, and, although situated as we have said, in a pine-barren, there are many pretty walks and drives about the village, and on the banks of the Ashley, about four miles ofE, some spots of great beauty. The famous Pinehiirst tea farm owned by Dr. C. U. Shepard, is one of the chief attractions of' the neighborhood, and from his success in growing tea in South Carolina, has induced a Northern company to start the same industry at a point near the Charleston and Savannah Railroad.
