The Exposition is fairly plunging.
The daily attendance is averaging twelve
thousand. and the receipts triple the, ex-
penditures. So far the turnslile regHters
show that over half million people have
passed inside. and there are three weeks
yet to run over tbs confidently calcula-
ted that the management will at the close
have the building and machinery-which
cost over one hundred and seventy five
thousand. dollars 5000 clear, and all
expenses paid. Many persons have never
realized the costly features Of the EXPOSE
tion. The Electric light for the building
and grounds cost SIS 900; the music, in
GLIDING both bands, the organist and cor
netists, $4,000; the Art Gallery consiruc-
ton, collection Of pictures, ezprsssage, ETC.,
S25, 900 and so on and 10 forth.
This Is big thing. and the fourth larg-
est building ever devoted TO this purpose
in the history Of civilization.
There are fourteen acres under roof, and
this does not embrace the Art Gallery and
"Annex."
The Dog Show promises to be the most
drawing card yet presented by the Expo
sitiOn. Il will last four days, including
the last two days in this month and the
frat two days in November Every dog
will have his day-every species known 10
the genus TO be represented. The returns
coming in indicate that over four hundred
CANNES will be on hand. The hvs cham
pion dogs Of America the King Masiih,
Setter, Pointer, New FoundlaDd and Bull,
have agreed TO come. The kennels will be
located in the galleries or second story Of

"When Congress meets in December, Il
will be confronted with Treasury surplus
Of $3.50, 100000, and the question will be
what TO do with Il. The only sound meth
cd Of relief from this embarrassment Of
public riches is in reducing excessive rates
Of duty on imports and in reducing the in
terminable list Of dutiable articles. by
thus reducing the duties the people will be
saved not only from the sis0,000,0O0 Of
surplus revenue. but from more than
double that amount Of incidental taxation
that does not go into the Treasury. While
afiording great relief to the taxpayers,
such reduction Of duties would give new
wings 10 the commerce Of the county"

Tbe Sentence Of DEATH.


In sentencing the boy 6end at Somerset,
Judge Owsley spoke very feelingly as fol-
lowe:
FRANK WooLFoRD SLAeLE You were
indicted in this court at its present term
for the murder Of three persons at the same
time, and were tried for the killing Of
Joseph Cloburne. one Of the parties. The
jury after fall hearing and mature DELHI
Grafton found you guilty Of murder and
fixed your punishment at death. Have
you any legal cause to urge, why the judy
ment Of the court should not now be pro-
nounced?
slsgle said:-"I didn't get fair trial, l
was forced into IT,"
You have been well and ably defended
by competent counsel appointed by the
court who have exhausted every resource
which was possible for your defense; the
jury was an intelligent one Of your own
selection and tried to give you fair and
impartial trial and II any error was COM
mitied feel satisfied II was not unfavora-
BILE TO you. The proof produced wss
strong and conclusive-so the jury thought
and found-and they had the right TO de-
eide that question. and Tm satisfied they
had full and sufficient evidence to reach
that conclusion. The crime for which you
have been tried and convisted il a fearful
one and the punishment is commensurate
with the offence. Society and the laws Of
the land demand that those who have been
guilty OF crime shall suffer the just penalty
for their offences. This lie not for ven
geance, but to conserve the public peace
and deter evil doors from the commission
Of similar offences.
The law ought and must be executed
and the courts must see that il is fairly
and justly done. Sympathy and duty
mean an impartial trial. You are said to
have been waif cast upon the great ocean
Of society without father or mother; that
misfortune you are not responsible for
associates and practices you are-surround-
ed as you are by good and law abiding
people. You are entitled to sympathy but
you are certainly responsible for your acts.
1 can now only commend you to the
kind and loving Father Of us all. He is
abundantly able and willing 10 save the
most reckless sinner. Accept sincerely
and truly His Son who suffered an igno-
minious death on the cross to save us all
and / am sure you may be saved. See to it
then that when your body perishes you do
not at the same time lose your immorta,
soul.
1t is my painful duty to now pronounce
the sentence OF the law.
1t is the judgment Of the Court that you
be taken from this court house to the Jail
Of this county there to be safely confined
and kept until Tuesday, the 9Th day o
January. 1884, on which day between the
hours Of ten o'clock A. NJ, and two o'clock
P. NJ, you will be taken therefrom by the
sheriff or other officer designated by the
court to place TO be selected, and then
and there to be hung BY then until you
are dead. And the Lord will have mercy
on you II you ask Him in good faith 10 do
so. The execution to be private.

-Colored Bapiis,s In convention at Wv

ing TO law can not be counted ill a
week after the election and when IL is

suit can be officially promulgated.
But Il doesn't matter much. Enough

Heretofore il has always been claim.

II seems to us remarkable that there
should be newspapers or people who be-
lieve or profess TO believe in the innocence
Of Ellis Graft on his mere assertion Of in
nocence. They are willing to take the I'M
supported word Of this inhumsn monster
against the sworn evidence Of bis accom-
plice and against the strongest corrObors-
tive evidence. Every thing which was
produced at the different trials, even the
testimony Of the witnesses for the defense,
but forged the chain tighter, and the more
strongly convinced every body Of his guilt
In all the trials there has never been sim
gle juryman who had the slightest doubt Of
his guilt. And we DO not think there is
lawyer any where who could read all the
testimony and come TO the conclusion that
he was innocent. Yet because he declares
himself innocent, as most most murderers
do, there are people 50 stupid as to believe
it against proof.-eeshland Independent.

The republicans are giving many reasons
for their defeat in Ohio. Some charge IL
TO the confusion thrown into the canvass by
the liquor question. No few assert that
il was the shortage Of the duty ON wool
that did the mischief. Others think that
the Presidential aspirations Of John sher-
man, and the antiques Of Foster for seat
in the Senate, were formidable obstacles TO
success. The Republicans fail to hit the
real reason for their disaster in Ohio. They
were beaten because the republican party
must go.-[N Y. Sun.

The fire losses in the United States
during the month of August amounted
to s10,000,000. Such figures are
startling. To comprehend them one
should think of the amount of labor
necessary to replace the property
which vanished in smoke in that sim
gle month. Estimating the wages Of
men engaged in the building trades at
an average of 50 80 a day, it would re-
quire four millions days work, or the
time ofone hundred and sixty thousand
men for one month to replace the
property burned. As the fire losses Of
August were not exceptional, it fol-
lows that a standing army Of one hun
bred and fifty thousand skilled work
men is kept constantly employed in
this country in making good the loss
es from fires. Not many nations
could stand so heavy drain. Much
of this heavy tax could be saved we're
there more care exercised in the con-
struction of buildings, and the avoid
ing of conditions which make confa-
grations possible.

THE representatives of all the sub
ordinate lodges Of the Independent
Order Of Odd Fellows in the State
meet here in Grand Lodge today, and
as the mouthpiece of the citizens Of
Stanford, We extend to them a cordial
welcome to enjoy the freedom of the
city during the three days that they
illremain with us. The lodges from
which these representatives are sent
testify By that act that they are gen.
tlemen of good standing, and as such,
we receive them and tender the hospi-
talityof our homes, hoping that our
intercourse may be mutually pleasant
and beneficial. The order they rep
resent is grand one, both in its NOR
al and charitable purposes. 1t is not
a religious organization, but no person
can become member Of il unless he
be of good moral character, believes
in Supreme Being, the Maker and
Ruler Of the Universe and promises
fidelity, not only to the laws and obi
cations of the Order but to the laws
Of God and the laws of tho land. The
Order had its origin in London, about
the latter part of the last century, but
was then more of a convivial than Of
moral character. In 1918 the conviv-
ial feather was abolished and many
improvements made in its ritual. The
Order in Great Britain now numbers
over 100000 members. Until 1919
it was exclusively Of British members
but in that year Thomas Wildly Or
ganized aLodge in Baltimore, Nd,
and since then the Order has spread
into every State and Territory Of the
United States, and its membership
has reached nearly a million. The
chief objects OF the Order, besides its
social features are to provide means to
meet the claims Of its sick and dis
tressed members, bury the dead, to re-
lieve the widow and educate the or
phan, and well are these designs car
ried out.
It is not often that Stanford has the
honor Of entertaining 60 large and SO
representative a body of men, some
800, but when she does, she does it in
style and comes as near inserting the
big pot into the little one as it is pos.
sible to do So. So gentlemen Of the
Grand Lodge, 1. o. o. f. make your
selves at home and eat, drink and be
merry.
