The st. Louis Exposlfion Opens Its Doors
1t the Rseglnnlnx ofIts Third Season to ,
Throng Of Nearly Twenty Thousand Poo
pie - An Former Displays Eclipsed In
the Beauty and Extent Of Exhibits.
ST. LOUIS, Sept. 9.-The opening Of
the third annual Exposition of St. Louis
last night was agrand success. Never In
the history of the association have the
naves of the great structure been SO
crowded with representatives OF the
highest circles of society, and the ex-
CARNATIONS, "Oh, how lovelyi" ''Isn't
that Just beautifuli" ETC., were heard on
every side.
Long before the opening hour the
pavement in front of the great building
was thronged with ladies and gentlemen
waiting for the doors to open. No one.
not even exhibitors, were Above to en-
ter, as a rush would have certainly been
made II the doors had been opened.
The employees engaged at the various
exhibits we're admitted at the Thir-
teenth street entrance, SO as not
TO retard any Of the preparations still
going on, but all others were excluded.
At seven o'clock the arcade on Olive
street was Illuminated, and at precisely
eight o'clock all the front doors were
opened and the rush began. For an hour
constant stream Of humanity
passed through each Of the three
entrances, and 1t Is estimated
that nearly twenty thousand people were
present during the evening. The crowd
was a critical one, who knew what had
appeared at the previous exhibitions, and
were competent to judge of the compara-
tive merits of the present one. That the
Exposition of 1886 is far in advance of
the predecessors was the opinion of all,
aud expressed without hesitation.
Such decision, in view of the fact
that the arrangements in many
cases were incomplete, is certainly ell
couraging, and is an assurance of cOntin.
ued success during the season. In a few
days, at farthest, every exhibit will be
completed, the electric lights working
perfectly and all the machinery running
smoothly. Then, and not till then, can a
fair comparison be made with previous
efforts or the expositions of other cities.
Few people imagine the enormous
amount of detail work necessary to be
done before a great exposition can be
considered I'm perfect running order, and
the almost impossibility of perfect
opening, but the opening last night was
nearer perfect than ever before.

what Shall b Doas With 0sronlmo Nov
That He b Caught.
WASHINGTON, Sept 1l.-General Drum,
Acting Secretary Of War, has given instruc.
tons that Geronimo. Natchez and the other
hostlles who surrendered with them must be
stopped at San Antonio and kept I'm prison
there until determination shall be reached
IS to what course of procedure shall be
taken against them. 1t is officially known
that the surrender was not made without
conditions, but what the conditions were,
beyond an agreement that they should moi
be surrendered for trial in Arizona, has not
yet been reported, and 1t was in compliance
with this condition that General Mile.
started with the hOstiles for Florida. The
determination of the course If procedure
will probably be made by the President.
but not until the terms OF surrender aud
all the attendant circumstances shall
be officially known. With the
present knowledge it seems probable
that tie offenders can neither be tried
by military court martial nor by the civil
authorities. but may be tried as the Modoce
were-by military commission. This Is Q
tribunal for tho institution of which there
are many well-recognised precedents in
American history, though It is one which
has as yet no recognition In the statutory
law. The atrocities of these prisoners, ter
rible as they were. are not thought to be
such as would bring them within the juris
dictiOn of court martial which Is very
limited; nor would the civil courts, i'm the
absence of witnesses, meet the require
menis of the case, although their guilt Is
notorious. Under the circumstances, q

between q court martial and
the tribunal of Judge Lynch, and

pubIicists as a necessity under certain
is perhaps the only court by
which justice could be melted out to THESE
lnurtlerers. Composed of military officers,
its proceedings would be similar in charac.
ter TO court martial. Little doubt is EN-.
tertained by those who know the character
of the Apaches that there will be found
among them a number who will readily be-
tray Geronimo and the other leaders to save
their own necks."

PRACTICAL kARNolooY.


The Possibility q Rsadias Charsetsr By
the shape Of the Ears.
Much Of the observation il, of course,
as yet tentat i've and uncertain. But of
the contour I may freely say that am
convinced by every one of many keen
observations that the man whose upper
ear projects and bends forward is in
variably one who is very tractable, or
DESTROYS of learning, or very diligent.
Such would be the qualities indicated
from his habit of attending or giving
attention to what passes around him.
He is quick to learn, easy to train, pro-
vided his hand is delicate and facile
enough to do what is required of him
on occasion.
On the other hand, the man whose
ear buttons back to his head-is close
to the skull in its tip and posterior
margin, evinces opposite qualities. He
is inattractable, inattentive, needless;
he is accustomed to hear, it is true. but
not to mind what he hears; to allow
peoples cruel, witty, wise and tren-
chant sayings to 60 by unobserved.
Nevertheless, such a man may be ham
died by reason of his being unobserv-
ant. A good many excellent public
servants have such ears, and must
habitually be unobservant of many
things, since SO many uncomfortable
things encompass and engage them
that they would become quite miserable
were they to heed them all.
The pointed ear is the ear of the tur-
bulent, intractable man. who breaks
out occasionally in an original vein.
and who has his days and hours of I'M
easiness. The ear bounded in its su-
perior margin by curved line is that
of the quiet, easy, amiable man.-PHre-

The BLACK Hiils Extension.

Deadwood Times, u. Yesterdays mail
brought to the Deadwood land office the
filings of the Fremont, Elkhorn and
Missouri Valley railroad company upon
land for an extension of its Black Hills
branch from point three miles north of
French creek to point one and one
half miles east of Fort Meade. a total
distance of 1904 miles. The route rs
laid out upon township plats at the
| land Office, passes through Rapid, cros-
sing the Deadwood stage road near
Parkhursts brewery, and, hugging the
foothills, leaves the high bench over
| which the stage road runs, to the right,
and near Spring Valley ranch describes
a horse shoe, and passes east of the
range of sand hills extending from Elk
creek to Hogans ranch, runs thence a
little west of north to the north line
of II in township north, range 6 east,
terminating. we understand, at Roses or
Roads ranch, one and one-halt miles
from Fort Meade, three an6 one-half
miles east of Sturgis and about eighteen
| miles from Deadwood. AS the route thus
permanently established Is essentially
the same as surveyed year ago, it 1s
fair to presume that it will be continued
III accordance with, and to the end of
that survey, or to Whitewood et the
ranch OF Jones brothers. Two routes
were surveyed from the main line to
this city, one via Boulder and the other
via Whitewood, but as no land has been
entered for that portion cf the route it
is impossible to say which has been or
will be decided upon.
Reliable information is received at
this office that work will begin on the
grade as soon as the weather will per.
NIT, and pushed to the earliest possible
completion, 1t being the intention OF the
company to run cars into Deadwood and
to the coal fields by the first of Decem,
ber next. Contracts will be let at once
for grading, ties, bridge timbers. etc,
go that once forward movement is
| made from the gap, no material halt
| will occur at any point until the two
objective polnts-Deadwood and the

Cincinnati, Ohio, Feb 14--An extraor-
dlnary scene took place tonight at
Music hall. 1t was the closing night of
the meetings of Sam Jones and Sam
Small. The services were to begin at
7:30. At o'clock when the doors were
opened, over 5000 people were pressing
for admission. and at Cos o'clock every
seat in the hall was taken. Then the
stage was packed until people, among
them women, sat on the front edge.
Eight thousand people were packed in
the house. The Odeon adjoining was
also packed full. Small preached there.
At o'clock, when DIR. Joyce made his
way on the stage, he said he had entered
with great difficulty; that the front OF
the hall was packed with people vainly
trying to enter, and that the streets
for three squares were solid mass OF
people. He was sure that 25,000 people
had tried to enter Music hall. Fifteen
minutes later another minister arrived
aud said there were 10000 people unable
| to get in. Ten minutes later Sam Jones
appeared and said policeman had told
| him there were 10000 people in ant
about Music hall. Jones preached to ar
attentive audience. He goes home to
morrow to rest. and in two weeks begint

Boston special Seven young girls,

pearance, the least interested person in
the court, as she turned occasionally
and laughed and chatted with her fellow
prisoners in the dock. Nellie is pretty
brunette, and has on previous occasions

being idle and disorderly and with fre.

been living in house of ill repute on
OHIO street. After protracted hear.
