nation of everybody connected with and
interested in the Exposition to make the
last day memorable. and it is confidently
expected that the steady stream of visitors
will fill the building as it has
never been filed before. Additions
entrances, with turnStileS, have been
arranged for the accommodation OF the
expected throng. Nearly every manufac-
turing establishment i'll the city will give
its employees half holiday, and in many
cases will supply them with admission
tickets. All wholesale establishments will
close earlier than usual to afford attaches
the opportunity to turn out, so there seems
no limit to the crowd that may be present
To-NIGHT'S CARNIVAL

the'Nicotine club''will form the procession,
which will be over six hundeed strong,
headed by platoon of police and the Next

and gorgeous character will be worn, while

will really be the first Mardi Gras event of
the Northwest and will probably De only
the inception of an interesting series.
special musical program will be rendered
by the Mexican band and the festivities
will be continued until exactly midnight,
when the lights will be whistled out and
the big show will be over. 1t is probable
an impromptu show by the directors will be
given just before the close, but the details
are an inviolable secret.

LEWIS Is NOT GUILTY.
Thus Said the Twelve Men Who
Constituted the Jury.

Constituted the jury.
The district court room was well filled
yesterday morning, when the case of the
state against NJ. W. Lewis, the colored
man charged with shooting at Rev. Elias
Quincy Plummer, formerly pastor of the
Second A. NJ. E. church, during church
fair some months ago. was called. Many
of those present were people who were at
the church when the trouble occurred.
The testimony introduced showed that
some trouble had taken place early in the
evening between Lewis and Plummer, and
that Lewis had tried to get out OF it, and
that later in the evening when he ap-
preached the reverend gentleman and
asked for an explanation, Mr.. Plummer
had exclaimed: Get away from me. you
dirty. yellow rascal" At these words
Lewis made a retort not calculated to sooth
the feelings of Plummer, who made
lunge at him. striking him in the breast,
He then grasped big stool standing near
and raised it to strike Lewis, who drew a
revolver and fired, the bullet striking the
bottom of the stool. A rough and tumble
fight ensued, during which a second shot
was fired. The testimony of the different
witnesses differed somewhat. but all APP
peared to substantiate Lewis statement
that Mr.. Plummer had made the first
assault. The case was given to the jury
about $50.
The jury was out until 10 o'clock, when
a verdict of not guilty was returned. The
decision was received by the prisoner and
his friends with considerable emotion. At
one time the case looked very dark for
Lewis, and now he fully appreciates his
narrow escape.

Crook and Indian Affairs.

WASHINGTON, January Ex-senator
Van Wyek, Representative Dorsey, of
Nebraska, Judge Carr, Of Wyoming, and
Major Llewelly, lately agent for the
AescalerO Indians, called upon the
President to-day in reference to his re-
ported purpose to remove General Crook
from the command Of troops operating
against the Apaches. They represented
that much anxiety had been created 10
the west by the report, where General
Crook was held in high appreciation.
The President spoke admirably of Gen
eral Crook, and assured the visitors that
no serious purpose Of renewing him
had been entertained. He said General
Crock should have all he WA ted, the
whole army II necessary, to quell the
disturbances, protect the settlers and
punish The savages. He (the Pr. sidont)
was determined that these objects should
Be accomplished. The gentlemen then
called upon General Sheridan In refer
enos to the same subject. and we're re-
seiyed by him rs by the President and
told that General Crooks removal was
not contemplated.

PAY OF JOURNALISTS.
Ten Thousand Dollars the Maximum Re-
ceivcd by Newspaper Writers.

ceivcd by Newspaper Writers.
Generally speaking, it is safe to dis
credit all big stories. which are evidently
told for effect and from some sort OF
vanity. The man who volunteers to
tell you of his great earnings is usually
not to be believed. Men who earn
largely are apt to keep the fact to them
selves. Journalists get fair salaries; as
rule, as much as other workers in the
same grade do; but $4,000, or 81, 900,
or $4,000, is palpable untruth.
Managing editors occasionally receive
$4,000 year. and proprietary editors
are often paid highly for actual or
imaginary services. But no mere writer
for newspaper can command any such
figures as have been reported. Five
thousand dollars is generally the maxi
mum that any man can earn by his pen,
even in this, the great center and COM
mercial capital, where such labor IS
more literally recompensed than any
where else. They who perform pure
literary work are likely to get less than
they who perform newspaper work.
because books and magazines do not sell
like newspapers, and because the field
is far more contracted. Now and then
newspapers pay what are known as
fancy prices for particular kinds of
work, or for some special news; but
those prices are not kept up. The swag-
gering fellows who pirate of the muniti
cent wages of their pens are lneal de-
scendents of Baron Munchausen and
their noble lineage is universally recog-
nized. N. Y. Commercial AdUertiser.

Took All the Hurt Away.

A little boy and girl, each perhaps
five years old, were by the roadside,
this morning, on their way to school.
The boy became angry, and struck his
little playmate a smart blow on the
cheek, whereupon the latter began to
cry, the big tear-drops filing her bright
blue eyes. The boy looked on sullenly,
a moment or two, and then said, in q
softened, penitent tone: Don't cry,
Katie; l didn't mean to hurt you,
and l am so sorry that / was bad and
struck you The little maiden's face
at once br ghtened, like the sun Shin
ing through IN April day, and she SAID,
in such soft accents: '.Well, if you are
sorry you struck me, Willie, it don't
hurt; your saying so has took all the
hurt away" and brushing away the
pearly tear-drops. her face was as
bright and seraphc as though lit by 8
heavenly vision of ETHEREAL loneliness.

BLAINE STILL "Boss."

The Pine Tree State Politician HAS, His
Grip Yet on the Party - His Party
However, Not the Country.
According to our Washington dis
patches, some significance is attached
to the organization Of the Republican
Congressional Campaign Committee
on what is regarded as Blaine basis.
The selections of Congressman Golf as
chairman and Edward MCPHERSON as
secretary are looked upon as directly
in the interest of the late candidate
for the Presidency. 1t is asserted that
the efforts they are to make toward
restoring Republican control in the
House at the fall elections are to be
coupled with a concerted movement
to keep alive the Blaine sentiment
throughout the country. OF course,
the avowed object of the latter move
ment is the denomination of the Maine
leader as the Republican Presidential
candidate two years hence. The Cos.
sip on the subject is an interesting
contribution to current political dis
cussion. To similar outgivings from
other quarters it makes timely and
suggestive addition. Moreover, it
bears the unmistakable stamp of truth
and indicates corr ectly the present
condition aud tendencies of the Re-
publican organization in the Nation.
Whatever may be thought of Mr..
Blaine either by critics or adherents.
his strength with his party can neither
be ignored nor denied. As the matter
stands to-day he is, even in nominal
retirement, the most conspicuous Re
publican in the country. Out of Office
his movements are more closely
watched by the politicians Of both
parties than any representative of the
minority who occupies official station.
Defeat has not deprived him of the
adhesion of a large body of followers
in every State of the Union. The num-
erous body Of partisans of his train do
not necessarily represent the original
Republicanism of the United States.
/ OF that element much of the best has
already passed over to the Democracy.
A section not 50 large but still infiu.
entail is irrevocably arrayed in antago.
nism to the Presidential aspirations
of Mr.. Blaine. Nevertheless, what re
mains of the old party stands firmly
committed to his fortunes and looks
upon him as its most capable and in
fiuential chieftain. Nor are the mani
festations Of sympathy and supper
confined to his original followers
They are as visible among the extremist
of the old Stalwart school as they ar
