What the New York Fair Should Be,


Discussing the favorable prospects for
a Worlds Fair in this city in 1883, the
Tribune makes a good point in saying
that there should be no striving after
mere magnitude, but rather an effort to
compress the exhibition Tito an area of
moderate proportions by excluding adj
e 1tising shows and crude and common
place. articles. The world is weary of
colossal displays of objects that may be
seen in the shop windows of every town.
For a time it was curious to see what
each nation produced, with regard to
the quality and inherent merit Of the
article themselves; but it got all the
information it wanted in that direction
at Vienna and Philadelphia and twice
at Paris, and now it only cares to see
the things that are the most useful and
most beautiful. Let us therefore have
an exhibition in Now York that will
surpass all its predecessors for real at.
trsctivene 8 and will not appal visitors
bv its enormous size. Let every square
yard of its area contain something Il
please the eye or instruct the mind, anG
let the whole fair be a condensed typica
representation of the latest and best
achievement af civilization.

A cruel practical joke was played upon a
little ten-year-old boy named Jaimey Field, at
Chicago, a few days ago, by two brothers
named Grogan. He had been splitting wood
for one of the Grogans, and when he was sent
with a note to the other brother the little fell
low supposed it was an order for his pay. The
paper, however, contained the words, "Giye
this boy a kick" and Mr.. Grogan, to carry out
the joke, gave the boy a severe kick in the abb
domen. He has been laid up in a very critical
condition. Grogan is under 81, 200 bonds.

the Central Police Station for greater safety,
have been returned to the armorios of the re-

laborers returning to work at the old wages.
