French Exposition Draws Color and Crowd in Paris
The grounds span sixty acres forming a dumb bell as old Paris buildings intrude every view. Nine tenths of space are absorbed by the French. The Fine Arts palace houses St Gauden's Sherman statue and the new Alexander III bridge spans the Seine. The U S building is creditable while many foreign pavilions function as bazaars. Rumors of unsafe floors are denied by officials. A striking feature is illuminated paper lanterns from many trees creating an apple orchard visual.
