long, wearisome TRADES against the
incoming president over the nom de

up raost of the editorial space TO puff

altogether too tiresome. The Inter

The latest English fancy is jap
anese village, which has been set up
in London, all the materials being
brought froa Japan. It is built by
japanese carpenters, and every art
and industry OF Japan is represented
by skilled artists and workDnen, and
their manner of carrying out their
different handicrafts is shown. There
are lectures on Japan, her people and
her history; a japanese garden, a
school, and a theatre with japanese
actors. The only European thing
about it all is military band con-
posed of Highlanders. The entire
village is under glass and artifcially
heated. English royalty is greatly
interested in the project.

coded that it had been the custom for Treas
urers to place portions of the State funds in
other repositories, referring doubtless to the
banks of the city. So then the Republicans
would have no vantage on that score. Mr..
Cooper, demonstrating the safety of the
funds entrusted to his care, even IL part of
them were found outside the Treasury vaults
would be only following the precedent set
by the Republican Treasurers.
RAgsin reprobating any inference that there
is anything smiss in the State Treasury, we
also, sgsin. repeat that an investigation of it
can do no injustice to the Treasurer, the
State, the taxpayers nor the Democratic
party. Our party fight, National and State,
has been upon the platform of rigid honesty
in the public Offices. And we are in favor
OF giving the Republicans to understand
that the Democracy meant and means just
what its platform recited.

In no part OF the Government Building
are the effects OF energy and hard work more
evident than in the section devoted To the
display OF the natural and manufactured
products of the State of Indiana. The
visitor who sees the great space filed with
every conceivable vegetable and mineral
product tastefully arranged and hand
somelY decorated would never i'm.
agine that the whole collection
had been gathered in Indiana,
shipped to New Orleans and here srranged
within three months, yet such Is the fact. It
was on September %, 1884, that General
james r. Canadian fret received his com
mission with request that he should attend
TO the proper representa- ton of Indiana at
the Worlds Exposition. Is was late In Oc-
tober before the advertising matter neces-
cary for the proper collection of the exhibit
provided him with no funda, he
was compelled with but the small
sum furnished by the general mansgemeut
to compete with exhibits for whose ooIIec-
tion thousands Of dollars had been appro-
pristed BY State Legislatures. The personal
labors of Commissioner Canadian in collect
ing this exhibit have been continual aud
arduous. Since the reception of his CON-
mission his whole time has been devoted to
the collection of an exhibit that should
epit0miZe the resources OF the State, aud be
may now consider his labor ended, sni
his effort successful. His exhibit is a full
and an interesting one, and one that will re-
pay examination.
The first feature of this exhibit which will
attract notice Is the elegantly fitted up wall
tent which serves as the Indiana headqusr-
tiers. The front is ornamented by a number
of gray marble statues and bits of sculpture,
and a tasteful iron fence surrounds the
whole. Should the visitor be among the
favored ones who have the entree to the
sanctum the iron gate will swing open and
be will pass into q cosy parlor. elegant in
adornment. Two easels at the entrance
bears the portraits of Governor Porter, the
present incumbent OF the Indiana Guberna-
torial chair, and Governor elect Gray. The
floor Is laid with mating, and heavy Smyrna
rugs Of rich colors are strewed around. The

The condition OF matter inside our earth
conjecture. Many savsns begin to suspect
that the antiquity of our race is tar greater
than even modern geologists will admit.
The old idea that the earth is only 5000
years old has been abandoned by more ad-
vanced thought, and now one seems
ready to accept any theory which will
express in almost fabulous long periods
of time the age of our planet. Yet in all
this time, mankind never have learned the
real condition of things even one miIe BE-
low the surface of the globe on which their
endless generations have arisen and van
ished. Mr.. Proctors assumption of uni
versal molten interior may be right or
wrong. One OF the most ingenious ressoners
on the laws Of volcanic action, Mr.. Judd, an
Englishman, does not believe the earth's
great interior is 9 MISS of molten matter,
bat that it is extremely solid, consisting of
magnetic iron. He explains this unquestion-
able heat that is encountered near thesurfsce
by a very possible chemical reason, and assigns
to the heated belt only limited vertical
area. However this may be, Mr.. Proctor
takes what is perhaps more tenable ground
in turning from the earth to the sun, and
aecribiDg the source of solar heat to the
SUMS contraction. Thus does gravitating
energy-Newton's still mysterious law
generate the heat that originates and main
tains ell the forms Of life in our world, as in
the rest OF ths solar system. 1t seems in
deed to be, as Mr.. Proctor believes, the source
of all life, and Of ell forms of movement, in
the universe; for what is true OF our sun is
true Of the countless other Guns which We
call the stars Of space. This view of the
subject does indeed ''seem to present CRAWL
tstion as in sense associated directly with
the great First Cause"
