The South Dakota building resembled an old missions in the Spanish architectural style , and was situated in a beautiful grove of trees, almost directly opposite the structure of [[Texas]] on [[Art Hill]].

==Before the Fair==
Although one of the last of the states to procure ground for the erection of the State building, the South Dakota Building was one of the three state buildings ready to open its doors on the opening day of the Exposition.

==Description==

The building was two stories in height, having two porches on the north and west sides; the outside walls were covered with cement, finished in natural color.

[[File:South_Dakota_Main_Hall.jpg|200px|thumb|left|Main Hall of South Dakota Building]]
Upon entering the front door the visitor stood in the main exhibition hall 12 feet wide by 21 feet in length; with a relief map of the famous Black Hills mining region. There, the walls running through the second story to the vaulted ceiling, were covered with grains of wonderful designs and amazing colorings. The materials were corn, oats, wheat, rye, maize and flax. In a succession of panels are the names of the products of the State, and also its counties. There are heads of cattle, perfect in contour and shading, made from grain.
At one end of the room, above the long narrow Spanish windows, is the State motto in grains, "Under God the People Rule."
A raised dais at the side was dedicated by Sioux Falls and in the arch behind it are scenes from the town.

To the right was the writing room and general business office. The walls and ceilings of all the rooms were covered with metallic sheeting with embossed designs.

To the left of the main entrance, and of modern and pleasing interior decorative work, is the receiving parlor, with the portrait of the Governor of the State. There is a Conover piano in this room.

To the rear, and through the Corn Room, was the ladies' rest room, furnished plainly and inexpensively in light greens. The striking feature there was the great painting by a South Dakota artist of ''The White Devil's Charge''. There is an interesting Indian legend told of this picture. Its heroic proportions show a mad horse, pure white in color, facing a score of armed and mounted Indians bent on its death.

The second floor contained living quarters for the custodian of the building and officials.

A 800-seat restaurant was on premises and was available to the public.

'''Holland's''' small pavilion was on the site formerly allotted to Russia on the [[Place of Nations]] and abandoned by that country when war had begun with Japan. On three sides steep-pitched Dutch gables with corbie-steps on the slopes topped the building.

==Description==
A typical Dutch garden surrounded the structure.

While not an exact copy of the home of Rembrandt, the building is a perfect piece of sixteenth century domestic architecture, and is a curio shop of old furniture. Delft pottery and silver. In one of the rooms is a painting eighteen feet long by twelve wide, a reproduction of the most famous of all Rembrandt's paintings, the one that has been called "The Night Watch," copied by Hendrik Kleyn, which was in the State Museum at Amsterdam at the time. An admission fee was charged to view the picture.

The interior of the building of Holland presented a collection of furniture, tableware and brie a brae, all more than a century old. In one corner was an immense wardrobe of light colored walnut, with Dutch mountings in metal. This wardrobe was made some time before 1750. A model ship, of an '''Old Frieschen''' was on top of the wardrobe. In front of the wardrobe stood a hammered brass water kettle. The chairs around the table in the center of the room were taken from an old church. The table is nearly 200 years old.
On the side of the room opposite the wardrobe is a cabinet filled with Delft china, 150 years old. Some of these samples of old Dutch ware bear the famous name of the Duyn Pottery. They were made as early as 1640. A candle chandelier hanging in the center of the room, is more than three centuries old. In one corner is a little Dutch spinning wheel. Through the doorway can be seen a chaise intended for children, to be drawn by a goat. The collection was arranged to represent the living room of an old Dutch mansion of the year 1750.

'''Italy''''s pavilion in the [[Place of Nations]] was a reproduction of old Roman architecture, trimmed in stately balustrades and a magnificent garden. Situated south of the [[Administration|Administration building]], and opposite the [[Belgium]] pavilion, the one-story structure fronted International Avenue.

==Description==
Standing high above the garden level, the pavilion was reached by a broad flight of stairs. Standards crowned with bronzed Victories towered 100 feet on either side of the entrance. A bronze-colored cresting ran around the building, surrounding the lower
structures with a dash of red, being an imitation of terra cotta tiles.

The garden which stretched in front of the building was flanked on two sides by a 10-foot wall. The entrance to the pavilion was through a peristyle of beautiful Ionic columns. The walls and colonnade were elaborately treated with porcelain entablatures, and were broken at intervals with pylons which carried spouting fountains. The gardens were enriched by sculpture, rare flowers, and all accessories to present a scene most picturesque.

The pavilion included original manuscripts by Vincenzo Bellini and letters from Giuseppe Verdi.

In the main hall visitors could see portraits of the King and Queen of Italy, and sculptures by Monteverde. The great electrical genius, Marconi, was given recognition in the pavilion.

One salon sported a beautiful interior of stained glass windows made in Milan. This was used for Italian concerts. Two small rooms, where the commissioners' offices were located connected with the salon.

Inside and out, the level of staff work was so artistically executed that many people thought that all the sculptures were from the finest marble.

The remote American territories of Alaska and the Yukon were a complete mystery to most Americans.
The Esquimaux (or Esquimau), was an attraction that gave [[The Pike]]-goer a hint on this frigid region. The attraction consisted of a Esquimau Village, complete with dog sleds and glaciers.

==Etymology==

==Before the Fair==

==Description==
There were sled dog shows, Esquimau displays of athletic skill, and matrimonial and burial ceremonies.

Live reindeer roamed there; so did a tame polar bear named Mac. Inuit men glided kayaks across an artificial lake and ran dog sleds down a fake snow hill. The families wore sealskin pants and caribou coats, even in August, and every day they had a wedding, burial rituals, and the chance to pan for gold in a replica Klondike River.

The Klondike Mining Company had a display of panning for gold.

Esquimaux men cracked their whips to snatch a coin from a volunteer's fingers.

The finale of the show was a representation of the Aurora Borealis.

The Hunting in the Ozarks attraction on [[The Pike]] was a shooting gallery.

==Description==
The Hunting in the Ozarks was essentially a shooting gallery with a huge and impressive twist. Instead of leaning against a rail and shooting objects lined in a row, as in a carnival, the marksman (or woman), would fire in a huge area populated by squirrels, rabbits, quail, deer, bear; every Ozark game animal from the Missouri/Arkansas Ozark country was represented. They glided in and out real trees, rocks, water, and foliage on rails.

The Savage Model 1903-22 Caliber Repeater, and semi-smokeless shot was used in this shooting gallery.

Though the attraction was free, the concession charged a rather pricey 20 cents({{Inflation|US|.20|1904|fmt=eq}}) for only 7 shots.
