HOME ARTIST Painting by Miss Ethel Coe Finds a Place on Walls of the Art Room. â- y William CLevare. I The proper thing to do when you ar- â- it* at the exposition to to make for your state building and register and thereby prove your loyalty to your own kome soil. Illinois has bora well to the front with other states la provld log a headquarters here, and thai is â- tying something, tor many states have bms widely generous in their provl- lions. As you approach the Illinois boilding, yon are pleased with Its Im- posing appearance and Had immedi- ately In line with It the state buildings of such commonwealths as New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio. The Illinois building Is three stories high, oblong covered porch. High upon the walls appear the names of illustrious lilt- Mtaans, such at Lincoln, Grant, Shields, Oglesby, Altgeld, Palmer and others. You are disappointed la the hall as you enter. It it singularly un- impressive The building, though, has •everal very line rooms. The matte room is attractive to a degree and the iplendld organ it contains to an honor to the Illinois manufacturer who made The motion picture theater to also a line room, while the parlors and li- brary are beautifully equipped. The stained glass windows la the second story are a feature. The walls are hang with paintings by Illinois artists, noticeable among whom is Miss Ethel Cos of Evanston, whose "la Coclaa" to liven a good place. Unfortunately, the rooms are so arranged that some of the smaller ones are apt to be â- feted by the casual visitor. This to particularly so with the Lincoln room with its mementoes of the great presi- de*. Several Illinois colleges have registers for their graduates and stu- dents. I looked In vain for one from Northwestern. Mr. Richard Hennes- sey, who is one of the custodians of the buildings, said he would be very glad to place one if it were sent hip. â- eaten State House Facsimile. Massachusetts for its building has erected a facsimile of the front of its â- tote house at Boston. It has a mora commanding site for its exposition home than any other state. With its tremendous dome the edifice doml- nates the other state buildings. It has a One vista of two miles aad its eleva- tion is such it adds much to the gen- eral impresaiveness of the structure. The Interior of the building is a dream. The Colonial furniture to from one of the best collections of antiques to the old Bay state. The walla are covered with original and ezceUent espies of famous historical paintings. There to an atmosphere of high qual- ity about the lovely rooms which makes the place one of the most en- gaging on alt the grounds. All Are Smiling. Ohio has another commodious attractive building, but as you enter tie rotunda you received a distinct shock, for in a little alcove to a bust at James A. Garfield with the most un- torthly grin upon bis face. Tou turn and there from another alcove toe seat of Rutherford B. Hayes and bees toteg to outdo Garfield in merriment. Turning again you find the busts of two more presidents who were bora la Ohio. U. & Grant aad William a Tail, an«i they, too, are wreathed la smiles. Ju»t what the Idea Is.

Five Concerto. There will be five concertsâ€"four evening and one matinee. The dates are May 24, 25, 27, and 29th. The place Is the Northwestern university gym- nasiumâ€"as usualâ€"and Peter Chris- Han Ltjtkla will be the musical direc- tor and Frederick Stock the orchestra conductor. The festival chorus will have 800 voices. In addition there Will be a high school student's chorus of 400 and a children's chorus of 1.COO. The choral works presented this year have particular appeal to all mu â- ic lovers. The most Important of theae -will be Mendelssohn's Oratorio "Elijah" and "The Dream of Geron- tlus," by Edward Elgar. The former was produced for the first time at the1 Birmingham Festival la 4846. The pro- found Impression which it made «t that time, the astonishing inspiration Of its music, the dramatic power of the whole has not been lessened b; the passage of time. There la no oratorio which has so firm a hold ov the affections of music lovers. "The Dream of Gerontius" was first heard, also at Birmingham, in 1900. No choral work by any English mas- ter, and but few works by composers of any other land, hate achieved the triumph that Elgar brought about with the masterpiece which will be set forth at Evanston. The musical beauty, the poetry and the orchestral samptuousness of the score have been acclaimed by connoisseurs the world over. THE PROGRAMS. First Concert "Elijah" ..^.v.ii......
