deed all the Spanish-Americans, appear to
be making very creditable displays In the
way of delicate silver work, saddlery and
such ornaments as are made by hand. The
chief feature of interest, however-the one
point in which this exposition is immeasur-
ably ahead Of all previous ones-is the per-
feet panorama of nations 1t is scarcely pos
sible to search geographical list and find a
race or tribe but it has its representatives
now in Paris And not only there, but
housed as at home, cooking, sleeping and
sporting as at home, with their own quar-
tiers, theatres Gf they have such things, play
grounds, workshops, kitchens and even their
temples of art and religion. And it is to be
noted that from the rudest savage to the
most enlightened nations, If people has any
art it is always shown in close connection
with Its religion Even the widest Nam
yanger paints his god with little finer finish
than he does himself.
1t is a sort of tradition with the coachmen
of Paris that they are to strike, if at all, in
the year of an exposition, and this year they
struck with extraordinary vigor, but with
rather poor success. They chose the moment
when they thought themselves an absolute
necessity and enforced their decree with mil
itary rigor. Here and there "scab" or
"blackleg," as he would be called in Amer
lea, took passenger, whereupon the strikers
quietly stopped him in the street, cut his
lines, assisted the passenger to alght and
gently turned the vehicle on its side. But
they don't allow that thing to go very far in
Paris. Those who desired to go on their reg.
ular routes were protected in so doing and
| the rest soon had to come to terms.
In the meantime Parisians and visitors
have amused themselves with all sorts Of for
eign vehicles. In the exposition grounds they
have tested the Annamite voiture, the Japa
nese djinrickshah and the Chinese sedar
chair, while in the streets they have heroic
ally walked. A comparison with other CAPT
tails of Europe shows that the French coach
men are the best paid except those Of Lon
don, so one may say that the net result o.
their strike was to leave everything as it wa
before, except that MANY foreigners were ag
gravated and the satirists Of Paris had many
good laugh at them

over into her fathers arms. But
the movement made him lose his
footin', and, though dozen of us had
our hands stretched out to catch him,
he slipped and rolled back down
among the dirt and stones.
II s'pose it hadn't needed but the
least little jar-or maybe it wasn't the
jar at all-but anyway the next min
ute there was crash, and the stoutest
of us shut our eyes to keep out the
sight. The wall was down, and he
was under it.
HE was the only man about the
mill that was hurt-badly, that is; of
course few was struck with flying
stones, and hurt in the crowd. But
they'd got out alive, and the one that
had saved 'em was buried under the
ruins.
THAT was a queer night. don't
remember when or how the storm
stopped, but l shall always remember
what clear, starry night it was, and
how the fires that was kindled to light
the workers famed and danced, while
the shadows lay black in the corners
of the mill.
How we worked at that pile of
brick and mortarl one set takin' the
place of another as soon as they was
tired, and as many workin' at once as
the space would allow.
"Once, goin' back into the mill to
rest a bit, I found Jim Bryce and Tom
Clarkson a-carryin' that model that
Boss had been workin' over, back into
the office where it would be safe, and
they was liftin' it as tender as if twas
baby, and the tears runnin' over
Jim's brown face all the while.
"I'd give anything if / could jest
git back to this mornin' againl says
Jim, with a groan. To think
But he couldn't finish sayin' it,
and it was best not Most folks thought
it was the lightnin' that had done all
the damage, and the rest Of us didn't
know but the lightnin' might "a done
it all and that not beiu' sure was the
only comfortin' thing about it.
mo, he wasn't killed after ALL Oar
lin wasn't. The piles of rubbish he
had fallen between mostly saved him
from being crushed. Everybody
thought he was dead, and, even after
we found him alive, it seemed for a
long time as if he couldn't live. But he
come round again at last, and got back
to the mill to finish up his invention.
1T was a success, too. Yes, sir,
that's what built up these mills the
way they are now-the most flourish
in ones in this part of the country
and brought better times to every one
workin' in 'em. That was what he
was amin for all the time, only we
didn't know it; and that was why he
come here.
That's his house over there, that
big one on the hillside. He brought
his wife here when he married, anC
settled down among his mill folks, a:
he calls 'em.

No Faded Photographa.

The fading and following of photo
graphs after they have reached a GER
tain age has long been a reproach to
that method of printing from
the negative which is known as
silver printing on albuminized pap
er, and to a great extent that meth
cd has of late years been super
seeded by others which are more per-
manent in their results. The last new
method of this kind is that just intro
duced by Mr.. Valentine Blanchard,
and which he calls the platinum black
process. In this system the picture is
printed on silver prepared paper (not
albuminizedD, and the imageis changed
to permanent platinum by after treat
ment with salt of that metal. From
specimens which we have seen pre-
dict a great future for this process.
1t is especially adapted to the wants Of
amateurs, whose troubles in photogra-
ply generally begin when they begin
printing from their negatives.-Cham-
bers' Journal.

Poor George.

Yesterday morning while the circus
parade was going up Elm street, near
Church, the advance encountered a
countryman with a two seated car
riage. In the rear seat were his wife
and another lady. The wagon was
almost in the center of the street. and
the marshal told him he had better
drive up OF down Church street, as he
was in the way and his horse might be
frightened. The wife spoke up, say
ing:
Don't move, George; here is a
good place to see the parade"
A moment later, an attache on
horseback preceding the elephants
gave the warning in a stentorian
voice:
Look out for your horses
The countryman's horse grew res
tive at the music, and George had to
alight and hold the horse by the bits.
When the elephants neared him it
took two men to hold him, but when
the steam calliope appeared the opera
tor put on the loud pedal and the horse
kicked and reared furiously, although
three men volunteered their services
to keep him quiet. Then the wife re-
marked:
George, / never saw such a man
as you are for driving into dangerous
places. l think you are trying tc
kill us.
Then George drove away from the
dangerous place. Haven Palla

$4,000 himself to establish four of these
scholarships. During the first year of Mr.
Woolsey's presidency movement in behalf
of special scientific instruction resulted in the
establishment of the department Of philoso-
ply and the arts, in lS47 This led to the
foundation of the Sheffield scientific school,
and afterward in making a university of
Yale. In 1865 President Woolsey originated
a scheme for the organization OF Yale
school of fine arts
In 1866 President Woolsey gave his Greek
library, which comprised nearly 1000 vol
umes and was one of the finest private col
lections In existence, to the college, and fol-
lowed it by many other gifts, among them
being check for 5000 toward the library
building.
After his resignation, in 1871, Dr. Woolsey
lived in New Haven, occasionally giving in
struction in the Yale law school, but devoting
most of his time to researches and studies,
chiefly in political science. For several years
he was one of the regents Of the Smithsonian
institution and was a member and chairman
of the American division of the committee
for the revision of the New Testament. In
1884 he resigned from the Yale corporation
He was at one time president of the American
Home Missionary society.
Early in life DR.. Woolsey was favorably
known by five excellent manuals, each con-
tanning the Greek text with his own English
notes, of which there have been many edi-
lions prepared for the use of colleges in the
United States. These are "The Alcestis OF
Euripides," uS34, 1.-THE Antigone of Sopho-
cles," 1855, THE Prometheus of Aeschylus,
assn, 1.-The Electra of Sophocles," Qs30,
'The Gorgias of Plato" Qs4S). In 1916 he
published his inaugural discourse upon "Col
lege Education" in which he expatiated upor
the value Of a classical education. His next
book contained the address which he deliv
cred in 1850, which was $50 years after th'
founding of the college, before the Yal'
Alumni, entitled Historical Discourse Upor

All the correspondents agree that before
the last of June the exposition was by far the
greatest ever known. For five weeks each
successive report was more encouraging.
When the number Of strangers in Paris
reached 1000 it was telegraphed as some
thing wonderful. 1t is now looked back to
as a mere beginning. At every entrance to
the grounds, say American visitors, an I'M
broken stream pours in for six or seven
hours after the opening; broken French is
heard from the tongues of all nations from
Zululand to western North America, for
Buffalo Bills Indians have rounded out the
list in the congress of nations.
The great hall of decorative art is now com
plete in its sittings, and is, by common con-
sent the finest ever seen on earth An en-
thusiastic artist in chinaware says a year
would be scant time to study that section
alone The Chinese claim to have there some
reproductions of what was once a lost art
with them-the old style "clouded ware.
For many years the Chinese artists produced
peculiar work, so rare and costly that il
was used only by mandarins of a certain
rank; but during the TAPPING rebellion the
rebels destroyed every vestige of the furnaces
and shops, burned all the books in which the
recipes were filed, and massacred without
mercy every one of the working families in
which the processes were handed down from
father to son as family secrets.
Middlebury register. (Middlebury, Vt.) 1886-1937, 1889-07-12


To restore this manufacture has been the
ambition of the Chinese artists in that line.
In 1884 they succeeded in making what is
called the new porcelaine," in red, white
blue, CLOUD and flame" colors, but it was
only occasionally that perfect success could
be attained. The metal with which the col
oring was done was supposed to set at a
temperature of 300 degs., but at 500 1t
would volatilize and the latter was necessary
for the final finish Of the porcelain. The
discovery, as claimed, of a reliable process
for setting any of the colors, is pronounced
by the French artists an achievement of i'm
mense Importance to the ceramics of the fut-
ure. In the same hall the specimens of Sevres,
Gobelins Beauvais, Mosaics and other arti-
eles, both beautiful and useful is described
as wonderful.
In the Pavilion of Rivers and Forests the
exhibit Is rather more interesting to Ameri-
cans as a curiosity, or an exposition of the
French idea, than as a matter of great value.
To the western American especially the
French conception of great river" or for
est scene" borders on burlesque. Even the

An odd snake was discovered by o.

it to DR.. Ellis brewery, of Griffin.
The body of this snake is no larger
than very small knitting needle, yet
it is fifteen inches long. II seems to
be a very lively snake and is coiled
around some plants in jar of water.
The movements of the little fellow,

ART AND NATURE IN PARIS

WONDERFUL SUCCESS.

The Crowd Increasing Every Day-The
Great Hall of Art-The Chinese Revive

ored Porcelain-Aii Races Represented.
Paris is now only lodging subuSb-the
real metropolis is the exposition grounds.
Readers will remember that at the begin
hing Parisians, and especially government
officials, were quite solicitous about the sue
cess of the great exhibit. The imperial gov
rnments of Europe were unfriendly, and
Boulanger was agitating the people. Such
fears seem laughable now. Germans, Aus
trans and Russians have come to Paris by
tens of thousands, rather glad than other
wise that their governments have nothing to
do with it, the great races drew bigger
crowd and there was more betting than ever
before, the government is firm, and Bou-
hnger is remembered only to be laughed at.

THE NEW CHICAGO
AS Chicago previously covered 4211 square
miles and had they claim $4,000 people, it
follows that the present city covers l74H
square miles and has 100000 people. Such
is the conservative estimate" of The Chicago
Tribune but more aggressive local papers
put the total at 100000. They at the same
time estimate the population of Philadelphia
at something less than million, while the
papers of the latter city raise this estimate 10
per cent and lower that of Chicago AS to
Brooklyn all admit that its total does not
greatly, if at all, exceed 100000
But in the matter of rapid growth, long
sustained, Chicago so far exceeds oil other
cities, ancient or MODERN that there is scarce
ly basis for comparison. San Francisco
grew much more rapidly for a short time,
New York has maintained steady growth
for a much longer time, New Orleans had its
great boom much earlier, and Philadelphia
was much more solidly built from the start,
but Chicago is the only city which has en-
joyed phenomenal growth, right straight
along for a third of a century. Not only did
it increase every year, but since 1876 there
has been rapid increase in the percentage Of
increase-s constantly greater ratio on
constantly greater base. 1t was probably
the only city in America which was proved

A FAMOUS EDUCATOR.
The Late Theodore Dwight woolsey, Ex-
President of Yale.

President of Yale.
Three weeks before his death the late Theo-
dore Dwight Woolsey slowly and painfully,
and leaning heavily on the arm of his daugh-
ter, made a tour of Yale campus. He realized
that the end was near, and gazed long and
affectionately at the familiar college build
ings wherein he had passed SO many hours of
his life, wherein he had achieved most Of his
many successes A resume of his connections
with the institution will be interesting.
In 1920 he graduated, and although he was
only 10 years old, delivered the valedictory
Before the fifty-eight members of his class.
Three years later he became a Yale tutor for
two years. After three more years of absence
he again returned to his alma mater and was
chosen professor of the Greek language and
literature. He held that chair for fifteen
years, or until, in 1916, he was appointed
president. For a quarter of century be
presided over the great institution. In 1871
advancing age caused him to resign, but he
continued a member of the faculty.
Theodore Dwight Woolsey, D. D., LII D.,
was born in New York city Oct 81, 1901
His father William w. Woolsey, was pros.
porous merchant and his mother, Elizabeth,
was the daughter of President Timothy
Dwight, of Yale, and granddaughter of Presi.
dent Edwards. Shortly after his graduation
Mr.. Woolsey began the study of law in New
York, but without intending to take it up as
a profession.
He then entered the Theological seminary
at Princeton, N. j. 1t was 1925, however
when he was licensed to preach. In 1927 he
went to Europe, where he remained for three
yeas, staying most of the time in Germany
and France. In Germany he devoted hi:
time to bringing as near perfection as posi-
BILE his already remarkable knowledge of the
Greek language and literature, studying
under Godfrid Hermann at Leipzig under
Welcker at Bonn, and under Boeckh and
Ropp at Berlin. He returned to America g
ripe and finished scholar, and began his career
as professor at Yale with his great natura
abilities enhanced as much as possible by
thorough American and European training.
After he became president of the institu
ton he brought about many changes and re
forms, and the effects Of the vigor and new

life which he in
fused into Yale will
be apparent as long
as the college exists.
One of the most i'm
portant acts of his
administration was
the beginning of a
system by which
scholarships wer Q
con + erred upon
those members of
the freshman class
who showed special
ability. He gave
