teix levy of two-tenths of a'*nill upon
ti i- asses t -i valuatli nof the state each
year, not exceeding ten years, commen
cing in 1595.
The board met and organized May
iA, 1893, ai ii bave since been diligently
engaged in the prosecution of their du
ties. Tl ey have purchased a c m.nand-
Ing site for the new building, payable
i i.t of the appropriation available dur
ing 1895. 1897 ar.d 1898, at a total cost,
including a lot for boiler house, in an
adjoining block, of 1283,625. It is situat
ed at tin head of Wabasha street, in
St. Paul, about four blocks from the
Bite of tbe present capitol. The new
site is bounded by University avenue
OB the north. Park avenue on the west,
Wabasha st-<*it aud Central avenue on
the south and Cedar street on the east,
and contains eibi.ut 835,750 sijuare feet,
i ; 7 t*-iii acres. It is on a command
ing elevation, is easy of approach, and
fronts upon one of the principal thor
oughfares, being- upon the direct line
of travel between St. Paul and M.nne
apt bs.
Oct SO, 1815, Cass Gilbert, of St. Paul,
w:;.* appointed architect of the new
capitol, and a design for the same, s-üb
; by him, was adopted, of which a
reproduction is shown herein. The
board has proceeded with the construc
tion of the new building as rapidly as
the funds available would allow, and
the stone work of the basement story
is now complete, with the steel girders
f-e the floor covering same in place.
In 1896 and 1896, the amount realized
untler this act was (approximately)
$130,000 each year, ar.d about one-half
of this amount had been already pledg
ed, for those years, to pay for the sit 9.
leaving but a small amount for the
construction of the building. The same
Will be true during 1897 and 1898 and
until alter the site has ben wholly paid
for.
The Minnesota capitol building is lo
cated at the head of Wabasha street
and south of University avenue, on a
commanding site overlooking the city
and river valley to the south.
The general plan of building ls an
oblong, with a wing in the center of
the north side.

The basement, which is at the level
of grade and has convenient entrances
on each facade, in addition to the car
riage entrance under steps on south fa
cade, will contain the rooms of the
State Historical society, occupying the
entire east wing. In this floor will also
be located the offices of the board of
health, the dairy commissioner, x etc.
The elevators, two on either side of tlie
main entrance, start from this floor ar,d
run to the roof of the building.
The first floor has entrances ln the
center of each facade, opening into the
large vestibules and corridors leading
to the rotunda, which is centered on
the main axes of the building. This
story is occupied by the administra
tive offices, and the most important of
these, so far as practicable, have been
placed on the south side, and so group
ed as to best accommodate the busi
ness of the state. officers.
On the second floor are placed the
senate, a domed room fifty-five feet
square, in the center of the west wing,
and the supreme court room, wltb
domed and vaulted ceiling, somewhat
smaller than the senate,, and cruciform
In plan, in the center of the east wing.
The house of representatives will oc
cupy a semi-circular room in the north
wing, the ceiling of this room being
domed and penetrated by arches open
ing into the galleries at the third floor
level. These three rooms are lighted
from above by great skylights, de
signed to conform to the domed ceil
ing, this being the most approved
method of lighting rooms of this char
acter.
The retiring rooms, postofflce, prin
cipal committee rooms, judges' rooms,
clerk of the supreme court, consulta
tion room, the working part of the law
library and librarian's room are also
located on this floor.
The third floor contains additional
committee rooms, meeting room for the
state boards and main part of law li
brary, which has direct connection
with library and with judges' rooms
on the second floor. The galleries for
the senate and house of representatives
are also ln this story, and are supplied
with special stairways.
Each floor is amply provided with
general and special toilet rooms and
lavatories, janitor's closets, etc.
The building is designed in the re
naissance style of architecture, as the
perspective view shows, in a manner
that expresses the dignity of Its pur-
I" -■-•'•, and the exterior is a true ex
pression of the Internal arrangements
of the plan, the basement and first
story having a simple rustication, form
a base for the great order, of Corin
thian proportions, comprising the sec
ond and third or legislative floors. The
terrace walls, balustrades and general
features of the approaches are design
ed to harmonize with the building
and will aid in the general composi
tion.
In addition to the strictly architec
tural ornamentation on the exterior
the design calls for sculptural decora
tions, which might be modeled by such
men as were entrusted with similar
works at the world's fair in Chttcago.
At the foot of the main entrance
there are four pedestals to be »ur-
THE ST. FA Of, GLOBE WEDNESDAY JULY g7, 1808.
THE PEESSNT CAPITOL
mounted by couchant lions of heroic
scale. On the west side of the main
south entrance is a group symbolizing
labor, and on the opposite side of this
entrance, toward the supreme court, a
group symbolizing law.
On the pedestals above the main
cornice line, over this entrance, are
placed the quadriga in the center, and
on either side appropriate groups of
heroic scale. Over entrance to supreme
court wing are seated figures of Moses
and Justinian, symbolic of ancient and
modern law; and over s-enate end are
figures symbolizing probity and wis
dom.
The design of the inferior will be in
harmony with the style of architecture
on the exterior, and it is believed that
a flne effect will be obtained in the ro
tunda and grand stairways, which rise
on either side with gentle ascent and
are enclosed in marble colonnades of
monumental proportions, supporting a
marble entablature, from which springs
the metal and glass vaulted skylight
that will light that portion of the
building to the basement floor.
Tfir senate, the house of representa
tives and supreme court, together with,
their lobbies, have ben designed with
special care, and are of monumental
proportions.
In the question of special Interior
decorations the . architect, Mr. Gilbert,
desires that the example of Boston
public library and the congressional li
brary at Washington be followed, by
employing artists of the first rank to
do the mural painting in the great pen
dentives of the dome and in ofher wall
surfaces of the more important rooms.

(To be sung at the corner stone laying

My country, 'te's of thee.
Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing;
Land where our fathers died,
Land of the pilgrim's pride.
From every mountain side.
Let freedom ring.
My naive country, thee,
Land of the noble free —
Thy name I love;
I '.ove thy rocks and rills.
Thy woods and templed hills—'
My heart with rapture thrills
Like that above.
Let music swell the breeze,
And ring from all the trees.
Sweet freedom's song:
Let moral tongues aw2ke.
Let al that breathe partake,
Let recks their silence break
The sound prolong.
Our father's God to thee,
Author of liberty.
To thee 1 sing.
Long may our noble land be bright
Wi h freedom's holy light;
Potect us by thy might,
Great God, our king.

GOVERNMENT WANTS HORSES.
Dealers V/ill Find a Market for
Cavalry Stoclc.
Horse dealers at the Midway will bo grati
fied to learn that the government is about to
invest in eighty-five cavalry horses for ser
vice at Fort Yellowstone, and they will have
a chance to sell some of their stock to Uncle
Sam.
When the war broke out the Midway deal
ers expected to dispose of their horses to the
army for service in Cuba, but Col. Grigs'™,
of the Rough Rlder3, bought all the animals
he needed elsewhere, and the Midway dealers
were left. They have since brought every
influence they commanded to bear upon the
officials at Washington for a share of the
government patronage, and at last an op
portunity has come for them to make some
money.
Bids for horses will be called for today.
