Covering five acres of ground, with the topog- raphy of the co uuUj accorately laid oot In ac- cordance with t3>e original plans of the Panama Canal Zone, together with a panorama of the conntrr and the two oceans, the spectator has brought to his vision of 6,000 square miles of land and water, and It Is an Inspiring and Inter- esting sight to bee a ship travel apparently under Its own power, from the Pacific to the Atlantic Ocean, being lifted Into the locks and safllng ma- jestlcallv through the water wlthonc a bitch or stop. Seated on a moving platform having a seating rapacity of over liOOO, the spectator Is flven a half hour's ride over the Canal Zone. )nrlog this trip, one listens to a vivid descrip- tion of every point of Interest as It comes Into view. Tills Is done by a new Inventlnn. Duplex telephone receivers are attached to each chair, aud by a phonetic connection the Information In con- veyed to each cpcctator as tbe platfonfi pas8e<i the city, lock, lake or body of water which then lies directly In front of him. Tbe canal Is lined on each sloe with buoys snd lighthouses, marking the pathway of the vessels. These are Illuminated In exaot accordance with tbe originals wbleh they represent nt (be Isthmian canal. It Is without doubt one of the most entertain- ing and Instructive attractions of the entire expo- sition, and a trip to the fair wonld be considered Incomplete without visiting and viewing this mam- moth show. It represents an expenditure of half a million dollars, and nothing has been overlooked In lt<« erection that serves to enlighten and Inter- est the world at large on the greatest piece of engineering ever conceived. — * I THE Four Italian Commissioners at the Panama Fair have left San Frandaco for Rome.
