THE PERMANENT EXPOSITION project
finds ready and warm approval in the
columns of the Boston Trdcoller, which
concludes an extended notice of its
general plan and scope as follows;
II the exposition is TO he held and is to
serve useful purpose, Congress cannot
authorize 70 too soon, since time for prepara.
tion Is one Of the essential conditions Of its
success Such an exposition would not only
ftly commemorate a great event, but II
would, If properly conducted, hardly fail to
bring the United States into closer relations
with the South American States, whose com
merce is now so largely monopolized by
Europe. The exposition might, very likely
would, accomplish vastly more in this direc.
tion than would be done by formal inter.
national congress or congresses.
The newspapers generally which
have alluded to the matter all lay
great stress on the importance of
prompt action by Congress. The es-
sential preliminaries should be agreed
upon and the work put in motion be-
fore the adjournment of the next ses-
sion. The Fifty-first Congress will
then be prepared to enter upon its
intelligent and systematic prosecu.
ton. That will bring us to the spring
of 1891, by which time the prepara-
tioDs for what should be and can
easily be made the most notable and
elaborate event of the kind in the
worlds history, ought to be in an adj
yanced stage of completion, leaving
the finishing touches to be done by
the first session of the Fifty-second
Congress. ...
it may seem long while to 1892 to
man waiting for his breakfast or a
railroad train, but in the elaboration
and accomplishment of so, great a
thing as an Exposition of the Three
Americas, with all the rest of man
kind as invited guests, if not active
participants, it is really very short
period; and no time can safely be lost
in getting this magnificent commem-
oration Of American discovery under
way.

For my body is in Segoyia,

Though time and space forbid;

But my soul IL In Madrid.

THE EXPERTS WHO WERE appointed
by The Equity Court in Philadelphia
to make examination of the Keely
motor are making slow and unsatis-
factory progress. Mr. Keely has no
objection to showing them the appa-
ratus, and they are at liberty to make
the most they can out of it. But he
does not propose to give away the
secret of its operation, and thus far
the experts are no wiser than when
they began their investigation. APP
parently nothing can be done now
but to try the rack and thumbscrew
on the obstinate inventor, but these
moral persuaders have gone pretty
much out of fashion, and Keely will

That Detroit possesses the largest fur

puted after look through the large es-

goods finding ready sale in many ada

rooms at this season are bountifully
stocked with every kind of fur. and pre-
sents most interesting sight to one un-
accustomed to seeing the interior of such
an. establishment. Messrs. Buhl & Co..
are extensive importers of furs, having
regularly employed agents abroad, select
ing only the best of pelts, which accounts
for their goods giving universal satisfac-
tion. They have recently opened retail
department in connection with their
wholesale business and are advertising
great bargains to purchasers of fine seal
garments and the latest choice novelties
in imported muffs, boas, hats, caps, gloves,
etc. Their stock is the finest and most
extensive in the country. Their facilities
for manufacturing are unsurpassed. The
firm will be pleased to receive the public
at any time, and the assurance may safe
ly be given that those who are unac-
quainted with the house will leave it with
the firm conviction that its success and
the kind regard In which it is held are

She was doubtless conscious for many days of her

There is a demand for "toboggan

towns, and our old friend remarked, with
crushing look in his eye; "Why, there
be no public spirit abeout yew people.

propriates Eighty Thousand Dollars a
year to haul water to the top of big hill
in the winter season, pour it eout, an let
it run deown an freeze, so t the little
boys can ride deown on their sleds."
"But where does the town get any ben
efits" we inquired.

against small boys planting thorns in the
