Everybody who can, should attend the
two great fairs at St. Paul and Minneapo-
lis. Another opportunity for witnessing
the choicest of everything in the country,
the fastest horses in America, the finest
dogs and best shots in the world, the great
est collection of blooded stock ever in the
west, may not occur again in many years.
The two fair grounds are only few miles
apart. Strife for suprem acy which COM
menced IN healthy rivalry has carried
the arrangements 5eyond the most san
pninc exnec,at:ops Of their friends, and al
most beyond precedent. II fact we doubt
if there was ever in the country at state
fair an opportunity Of witnessing so grand
display as will be furnished by these
combined exhibitions.

EXPORTS AND IMPORTS.

u ."
The government statistical report for
the month Of May is at hand. It shows
a very gratifying state of affairs. Our
imports were s35. 200, 1916; exports $751;
747,43s. Imports Of coin and bullion,
81, 249, ,240. Exports Of coin and bull
lion, s2,6s9,24S. This shows an ex-
cess Of exports over imports of mer-
chandise of s1s, 97s, 051, and excess Of
coin imports over exports only
s440,000, for the month. There is a
chance for much reflection over figures
such as these. We are paying off our
foreign debt at the rate Of over half a
million a day, and that with the ship
ment of only a bagatelle of coin.

THE LEGION OF GEL Dorado

The word used above is now gener-
ally employed to indicate any locality
which is supposed to be particularly
rich, but it was originally applied to an
individual. When the Spaniards first
discovered Guyana and established
communications with the natives, the
latter very soon became aware of the
ardent affection which their visitors
entertained for gold. They related to
the newcomers the history of a great
chief who resided in the interior on
the banks of a vast lake called Parime,
who possessed palaces with walls of the
precious metal, and who every day
powdered himself from head to foot
with gold dust. The Imagination of
the adventures was at once fred, and
they determined to visit the Croesus,
whom, in their language, they called
"El Dorado,'' the gilded man. The
tale was not wholly baseless, as some
such mysterious parsonage did exist,
and daily performed a toilet somewhat
resembling that described in the native
account. But, instead of using real
gold dust for his decoration, he en-
pioyed a substance, well known to min
ers, called golden sand, which is, in
only an ore of iron in minute par
ticles, utterly vaineless, but which gilt
ters ike gold. Many attempts were
fruitlessly made to penetrate to Ell Do
RADIO, and among others, by Sir Walter
Raleigh. At last, some adventures
reached one of the palaces, situated on
the Courouapi, an afflucnt of the Yary
but which turned out to be nothing
more than a natural grotto, the walls
of which were formed of micaceous
rocks Mica is m of the constituents
Of granite. and has a yellow metallic
glitter, which under a strong light
makes it resemble gold. As for the IA
nous lake Parime, some foundation
also existed for the legend, as the re-
gion inhabited by the Indian chief is
situated on the ~alIuvial lands ut the
foot of a mountain range called Tu-
muc-Humac, and every year, during
the rainy season, the ground is covered
by an inundation 10 an immense extent,
and the natives are able to navigate the
vast forests in their canoes.

THE woMAN's CONGRESS-.

The French Exposition has been
made the occasion OF the gathering of
several important bodies to consider
questions that affect the welfare of the
whole world. On the 25th of this
month the International woman's
Rights Congress will begin its sittings
there, and will doubtless call together
a large number of brilliant and highly
gifted women The COMMITTEES in
charge was appointed from Russia, It
ally, France, Switzerland, Holland and
America. The subjects to be consid-
cred are to be divided into five parts,
and each assigned to a single section OF
the members attending. The first sec
tion will consider the whole movement
of m to make n change in their
condition, its origin, progress, purpose
and hindrances. The second will ex-
anime the methods of education for
girls, and the hygienic laws necessary
for their sex. The third will take up
the subject Of women's work and wages
in different countries, the inequalities
of mems and women's pay in the same
branches Of labor, and the social con
dition Of women The social evil, its
causes, and the best methods of arrest
ing 1t, will be discussed by the fourth
section. The fifth will study the civil,
commercial and penal laws of all coun-
tries that sanction women's inferiority
as compared to man; will consider the
laws Of marriage and divorce and re-
commend needed legislation.
Several women who haue been prom
inently before the public in connection
with this movement in this country,
will take part in the congress. Many
Of the subjects to be considered are of
vital Importance also to men, and the
proceedings of the assembly will pos
sess great interest. The interchange
Of opinions between the thinking, in
telllgent women Of SO many different
countries cannot help being beneficial
to the world, for it will spread lib.
eral thought in other directions than
the particular ones to which their Ia
bors are directed. And in the wide field
undertaken is much that is intimately
connected with the future well being
of the whole human race, and the de-
alterations of the congress upon such
questions will be watched with exceed
ing anxiety.

feet was electric. People sprang to
their feet, and a dozen hands were laid
upon the Withholding intruder. His
shoes and pantaloons were in bad re-
pair, his hair was unkempt, and his
beard unshaven, and although he wore
acoat, there vas nothing between it
and his skin. When he was taken to a

LORD B~EACossPIELD.

The dazzling rise of Iord Raacors-
field to place and power has led to the
ransackine of CONTEMPORARY history for
everything of interest connected with
the man. In Berlin the German pa
pers have reproduced whole chapters
of SYLVAN Grav, and his earlier nov
! els. while in England one of the lead
ing reviews has given place to a series
of already famous articles on his "Polit-
ical Adventures Decidedly the most
interesting as well as the most curious
of these contributions, however, is the
verbatim report of the future premier's
first speech in the House of Commons
of 1897, in which he was howled down
amid inextinguishable laughter. The
speech was leveled at Daniel O'ConnelI.
and its concluding portion was report
in the newspapers of tina time thus:
