Manager Vierling states that by Septem- oer 10 everything will be in readiness and the work of hotating the 200 tons of steel | which will be in the Auditorium roof will be commencod and pushed rapidly. As they are raised the trusses and brackets will be temporarlly bolted until all ‘he steel 13 in place. Then the swinging" scaf- folding will be attached to the trusses in | turn and the pneumatic’ hammer will be put to work. Contractor Gould says that he will start | fifty men at the brick and stone work Monday morning and will keep them at it every day If it does not rain There will be a race now between the steel work and brick work contractors, and with fair weather both of them will be able to complete thelr work and turn the bullding over to the Auditorium company before November 1. d Not alone through their sense of sight, | but within & few days also, through their sense of hearing, will the people of Omaha know that work on the Auditorium is belng | pushed forward. Prepariag the Iron Work. All of the trusses, and the brackets and teeen lons. Each truss comes in two pleces. Then there are the nice little brackets, each weighing several tons, which go under the trusses. To hold the trusses and brackets in place there ‘are several wagon loads of big bolts, and right here s where the peo- ple will hear the erection of the Audi- torlum, The Paxton & Vierling Iron works, contractor for the iron and steel work on the Auditorh . have already installed an airicompressor and the bolting will be done with a pneumatic hammer. The ham- mer itself is not very big, and aveighs only about twenty pounds, but it strikes 700 biows a minute, and in the matter of noise Is & concentrated boiler shop. This Is the first time such a hammer has been used on an Omaba building, though the Paxton & Vierling Iron works has had one for ome years In use at its shops. Putting Up Holsters. The holsting machinery for the trusses is being placed, and the Omaha Electric | Light and Power company has been noti- fled to attach wires and turn on twelve. horse power. With the arrangement of the machinery for doing the holsting only about seven or elght-horse power will be r¢ quired, so that there will be some power | to spare. Before the trusses are raised the iron columns now standing in a semi- circle inside the bufiding at the west end must bz temporarily lowered.

Regarding this President Wattles said: “As regards the state having a bullding on the exposition grounds, we are not yet prepared to say whether we will or will not have one. When the commission visited St. Louls several weeks ago we selected & site, and’ Architect Kimball was with us and stated that a very creditable building could be bullt for & relatively snfll sum. However, our financial resources are so lmited that we felt rather inclined to de- vote everything to a splendid exhibit of the state’'s resources. Arrangements al being perfected to this end now."” From Governor Mickey it was learned that 5,000 feet have been secured in Agricul- tural hall for the state exhibit and the exposition officials have tendered the state 10,00 teet if it is desired.
