Exposition, United States, State and
city officials. foreign consuls and In

through the principal streets to the
head of Canal street, where steamers
were in readiness to convey the partici.
pants to the Exposition grounds. The
attendance, both on the line of the par
ade in the city and at the Exposition
was large. 1t took some time to arrange
the distinguished gentlemen who occu'
pied seats on the platform. A chorus
of 500 ladies and gentlemen were seated
well forward, and at given signal the
chorus burst forth with Hail Column.

Rapid Bridge Building.

The most remarkable case OF bridge
building in all history occurred in the
rebuilding of the great Yuma bridge
across the Colorado. The bridge was
destroyed by fire week ago. and was
last night reconstructed and trains
passed over at Z O'Clock. The mater
ials for the new bridge were scattered
some at Oakland, Sacramento, Los An
geles, and Wilmington-but were gath
cred and sent forward at distances
varying from $50 to $50 miles, and the
bridge built within week. Arthur
Brown, Superintendent of Bridges OF
the Southern Pacific Railroad, is enti-
tied to the credit for this unparalleled
work. Los Angeles Herald.

The New York Herald on Sunday
last, with it's usual amount Of cabled

county Mayo, owing to the ''dictatlon

raises howl of discomfort at the decls-
ion of a chairman Of a county conyen-
ton, the whole party together with its
policy, according to the Herald, has
gone to atoms. If all the bowls that
have been raised against the Herald for
publishing such election opinions could
be gathered in Printing House square

AT the recent Irish convention held
in Glasgow, where all the Irish leaders,
with the exception Of Mr.. Parnell, were
present, the delegates pledged them
selves on behalf Of the Irish people
whom they represented in England and
Scotland "to have no trafficking with
English political parties, to stand aloof
from their struggles, to tolerate in their
ranks no man who allied himself with
either party, and then, when the hour
of battle came, receive the word OF
command from the man who was Sc
lected as chief of the Irish race through
out the world.''

We stood outside the wire fence,

man who leaned on his plow surveying
us, while the two shaggy horses attached
to it languidly hung their heads as if in
tending furtive nap.

He was pleasant-faced, ,blue-eyed old
man, with long, curling white hair. His
teeth were gone, but otherwise he seemed

tears widening into large rents. l was

me to do a grown woman's work; beside,
George was five, and such a baby made

For answer he pointed his thumb at a

field, where a rude wooden cross was
planted.
