Surveying Capitol Fire Damage
| Damage caused to the East Wing of the third Wisconsin State Capitol by the fire of February 26-27, 1904. In the foreground is a duplicate of the "Centennial Fountain," which had won a medal at the U.S. Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia, in its wintertime covering. The fountain was moved to the governor's residence on East Gilman Street in 1912 and in 1943 the state sold the fountain for scrap to support the war effort. |
