LONDON, November 27. The Empire Exhibition has fixed tho hours'for opening the Exhibition at from 10 a.m. to 11 p.m. There is still discussion as to whether the Exhibition will open on Sundays. Tho contractors, having completed the palaces of industry. and engineering, are hurrying forward other buildings. The industrial and engineering exhibitors are already fixing the foundations for their own exhibits.
The amusement park is one of tho chief attractions. Many of its features are kept secret. It is to cost £1,000,000, but even this sum is thought to bo inadequate. Senator Wilson states that he is pleased with tho progress of tho Australian pavilion. It was “a rush for everyone,” but Australia was doing as well as anyone. “ There are a good many people throwing bricks at Australia,” ho said, ‘‘but when the work is finished there will bo no grounds for criticism.”
