C., December 1, 1901, and oloso June 1, 1902 Tho Exposition Company has been chartered by tho State of South Carolina with a capital atook of $250,000. Active work upon tho Exposition project has only boon in progress since about tho first of August last, and what has been accomplished in tho period that has olapBed sinoe then is without parrellel in the history of exposition building. Tho site of tho Exposition will be on tho oastern bank of tho Ashley River within a milo and a half ot the basinets ocntro of tho City of Charleston. tTho grounds are beautifully situated, and will lend themselves to tho mn?t artistic treatment. One half of tho grouuds will bo devoted to tho Main Exposition Buildings, tho Midway Conoessirons and tho Administration offices of tho great show. The remaining part of the urounds will prciorve their present great natural beauty, and will bo devoted to tho buildipgs and exhibits mad s bv tho Qovcrnment and tho soveral States of the Union, which will tako part in tho Exposition Somo description of thearohiteotual features of tho Fair will be of general publio interest The Exposition grounds are divided into two main sections, one cmsutirg of the old Washington Race Course property and tho oilier of tho Waxenor farm, formerly tho Lowndes plaoo.

This part of the grounds is ontircly level. No better m'.o, in the opinion of expert artistP and builders, eould be found. About 22 acres have been reserved on this part of the grounds for the Midway Concessions. The main exposition buildings surround a grand court at tho western extremity of the old Hsco Crurso. This will bo in shape something like an elongated horseshoe, with tho Cotton 1'alace. or main Exposition building, occupying the toa of the shoe, with tho Comracrco 1'alace and tho Agricultural Palace occupying respectively tho two sides of the shoo These buildings, with their connecting colonnades, will extend for a distance of about one milo. Within the horso shoo there will be a Sunken G trdon covering several aorcs, _ _ with a lake in tho contcr. A wide esplanade of Alameda ab mt <50 feet in width will surround this garden. 1/ ^ ) Among the Ttoial attraction* of tho Court of Palace* will be feuntaion end hits of tlatusry nc?l hardson elv detitned enlumns of the Spanish typo, *11 contribute e to tho hcanty of thn resno At ono end of the Sunken Garden, a mufio stand ail! he erected, and at the other end a pergola or laitioo work screen. agau-at ?*iiioD wm prow during tho Ktpo?ition period, the most beautiful of tropical vines.

Tho main Exposition building will be tho Cotton Palaoe, the Commoroe Palace, tho Agricu'tural Palaco, tho Mining and Forestry Building, the Auditorium, the Administration Building, tho Machinery and Transportation Bailding, and other struotures devoted to railroad exhibits, to restaurant purposes and *o public comfort. Besides all these thero will staod on tho Wsecnor place tho Woman's Building. thostvcral State and City Buildings and the Nogro Department. The Cotton Palaoo will ho tho mostimpoB:ng of the Exposition buildings. It will cover upwards of 50,000 feet of floor space, will be 550 feet in length and at least 100 foot " ? width.

The palaoos of Agriculturo and Commerce will each oontain about 10,000 square feet of floor area, in addition to their connecting arcades which will contain in all about 20,000 rquare feet. Kaoh of these buildings will have a centaal demo and smaller turrenta at the cornora, emphasing tho cotranoos to those as well as the cm ter pediments. Tho intorior of thoso building has broo particularly dosiguod .'or both effective artist'c treatment and praotioal utility. Tho windows in all of these will bo carried at leant eight feet above tho floor, the roof trupsos being constructed upon the cantilever principle, thus avoiding the usual massing of unsightly wooden frame work and emphasiz'nK the graceful lines of arches and oiroles, starting from the principal doaos and carried through tho wings ard approaches.
