1t promises to be one Of the most grand
exhibitions of the kind which has yet
been held in this country or any other
other. 1t will be held in the large ex-
position building. and other buildings
on the lake shore are being erected to
accommodate the display. A full de-
scription of what will be on exhibition
would require too much space for this

be the surprising motive power and
various uses to which electricity can
be applied.

Probably never before in tie history
of this country has there been such =
succession of tornadoes, attended with
so great loss of life and property, as
during several months past. The de-
s.ruction of human life in many locall-
ties has been truly appalling. Hereto
fore the idea has prevailed that violent
storms of wind were peculiar to partic-
ular sections of country. Kansas was
thought to be especially liable to tenn
pestuous winds. But more recently
many sections Of country, east, south
and west, have been visited with disas-
trous storms; no considerable portion
of the Union has been exempted from
cyclones Our own state has not escaped
the disasters which have occurred in
other states. There is but little use in
studying the track where storms are
liable to go; their history for the past
few months proves there is no law by
which their pathway can be deter
mined; they travel where they will,
and often where least expected.

DAKOTA-ITS PRESENT AMI
PROSPECTIVE FUTURE.

A spirited contest is now going on
in Dakota, between quite a number of
young cities, for the securement of the
location of the capital. The commit
tee chosen to locate the capital are re-
ceiving bids from rival cities, ranging
from 100000 to 100000. 1t is not yet
known whether the committee will ac-
cept the highest bid as determining
the location, or whether geographical
position will govern in making the
choice. The liberal amounts Of mon
ey offered at so many different points
reveals the fact that large amount of
wealth has gone with emigration to
Dakota probably in no former in
stance in the early settlement Of
Territory has this fact been paralleled.
Nor is this fictitious wealth. Bids
for the capital are accompanied with
the requisite securities for payment.
Banks have sprung up all over the
Territory; every considerable town
has one or more banks. As a mark
of intelligence and shrewdness of the
people, the power and influence of the
newspaper press is generally acknowl-
edged. Every town which has been
surveyed into lots for a prospective
city encourages the establishment of
a newspaper; for the development
and making known the advantages of
the country no other agency equals
this. There are towns which only three
to four years ago had hardly more
than a single dwelling which to day
have the daily newspaper.
Many people say Dakota is going too
fast, and that there will come reaction |
followed by disaster. Perhaps this
may be so, but the situation does not |
justify such conclusion. Dakota is not
inflated with speculation in mining
stocks or other uncertain chances of
realizing wealth. The Territory re-
lies on vast domain of arabic land of
fertility its millions of |
acres are being brought under cult
walton as rapidly as labor and capital
can do it. A people who base their
future success on the resources of

SUING FOR MASSES.

Rev. Father Kenny, of st. PauPs
church, New York city, has sued the
estate of the late Father Mcguire for
pay for 100 masses said for the repose
of the soul of Peter O'Hara. Father
Mcguire having died after having been
paid for the services, the claimant asks
$4,000. Itappears charges for masses
hold good in law. A recent case is
noticed as coming before Circuit Judge
Tully, in Chicago, where the payment
of a priest for masses said for the re-
pose of the soul was contested on the
ground that the practice was a.super-
sti.ious one, but the court held the OBJ
lection was not good, as the service
was valid under the laws of the state.

CIVIL SERVICE.

The rules for the government of the
civil service, which were In the main
agreed upon some weeks ago, have at
last been promulgated by the Presi-
dent. 1t is now twelve years since the
subject of civil service began to be
discussed in the public press, and it has
been kept up vigorously ever since.
During all this time the effort has
been to devise aaplan to ascertain the
qualifications for Office by other meth
DDS than the only practicable one.
Ever since the plan originated by
George William Curtis in 1872, the
theory has been about this: If you
would know whether a candidate fol
position is honest, let him solve an in
tricate mathematical problem to know
that he will not steal, have him tell il
corn can be grown on the highest peal
of the Andes; to ascertain that he viii
not lie, ask him If Alexander, The
\ worlds conqueror, took in America
to find out his propensity for intoxl
eating liquors. ask him to describe thu
distinctive qualities of potato and ry'
whiskey. 1t is true such were not th,
exact questions propounded to candi
dates, following the plan Of Curtis, bu
interrogatories equally absurd, the can
didates for clerkships in the depart
ments were asked to answer.
The great Civil Service machine i
now finished and will commence grind
Ing out candidates for appointment
to offices. The people will watch wit
| interest the results. Perhaps theft
embezzlement and scoundrelism wi
come to a halt; if so, the new contriy
ance will be marvellous one.

A GOOD MOVE.

The Chicago and Northwestern Rail-
way has issued an order to the effect
that employees on the road who use in
toxicating drinks as beverage or are
found drinking in saloon will be
promptly discharged. 1t is believed
other roads, by the force of public
opinion, will adopt a like order. Let
the work go on until all liquor drinkers
are required to quit an employment
on which the safety of life and prop
erty depends.
