The can- 7'on, which Mil measure eight hundred feet ong and four hundred feet broad, will.pre- sent, in tabloid form, many of the features that have contributed to tbe beauty and grandeur of the Golden State. The ground that has been chosen for the building of this canyon rises from the edge of a lagoon that will front tbe Palace of Fine Arts to a hill South of the Exposition site. Tbe summit of the hill will be the top of the canyon from, which a roaring torrent will leap over huge rocks and boulders, wind- ing through gulleys arid bounding over chasms and groveling at the feet of giant redwoods until It reaches the pool at the Northern end of the gorge. At the opening of the canyon a bridge will cross the gorge, and at each end of the bridge a trunk of a giant redwood tree will be tunneled through and make an impressive entry Into the garden of wonders beyond. Almost every kind of tree and flower that grows In California will be In the canyon, and to make tbe, picture more than ever realistic there will eren.be a model Indian village, where membafs ,of the various Call- fornlan tribes will be seen a^.work upon the arts and crafts m which they arc so deft. There .will also he a model ranch and a gold digger's camp. ........ ... The canyon fs being built under the super? vision of John C.
