THE WoRLn,S EAIR.

The contest over the Worlds fair to be
held in this country in 1892 grows interest
ing. There are already several claimants of
the privilege of being the site of the fair,
and possibly there will be more. Thus far
New York, Chicago, Boston, st. Louis,
Washington and Wessville have been heard
from. There is no real rivalry, however, ex-
cept between New York and Chicago. The
Chicagoans are pitching in" in trne Western
style. They have already secured license
from their secretary of state, and various
committees are active and vociferous. In
the meantime the New Yorkers are not
asleep, and though their work is being done
more quietly than that of Chicago, they are
st work.
New York has by far the best of the argu-
ment. The only argument that amounts to
anything in favor of Chicago Is that the city
g nearer the center of the country than New
york is. In behalf of New York it is fairly
and strongly urged that 1t is the leading city
of the continent in wealth and population
and all that is representative of the results
of Columbus discovery. 1t is the point at
which the lines of transportation throughout
the length and breadth of the land concen-
trste, and at which the products of all it's
parts could most conveniently be brought to-
gether. 1t is the one seaport which holds
constant and regular communication on q
large scale with all parts of the civilized
world, and to which the people of all conn
tries could most readily send exhibits and
would do so in the greatest volums. 1t is SO
surrounded by salt water as to be a comfort
pie spaces to be occupied by great exhibit
ton, facilities for local travel that are un
equaled, and accommodations for visitors
| such as no other city can pretend to.

REAPED WHAT he sOWED.


Judge David S. Terry Of California reached
fitting end to his wild career yesterday in
being shot through the heart after an assault
upon Justice Field. Terry has apparently
always been ready to kill other people when
he thought they stood in his way. In the
early days of California, when vigilance COM
mittees were necessary, he stabbed member
of committee. Senator Broderick did some
thing that didn't suit him, and he and his
friends goaded Broderick into fighting a
duel. Terry killed Broderick at the first
shot, He managed to avoid being heard OF
as shooter or stabber from that time until
last year, when he was helping Sarah Althes
Hill to establish the validity of her marriage
to Senator Sharon. There was a disturbance
in the court on account of Miss Hills refusal
to sit down when ordered by The court to dc
so, and Terry struck an officer and drew 6
knife. Justice Field then ordered him to be
imprisoned for six months, and he was
Yesterday morning he struck the justice II
the face and before he had time to do more
he was shot dead by deputy marshal who
happened to be present. There are severa
very impressive morals connected with nil
career and death.

port rejecting certain claim. He looked it
over and concluded that the claimant was
entitled to his money. The clerk, who was
an old stager, said that the claim might be
an honest one, but the precedents were all
against 1t. The comptroller replied: ''The
duty of the clerks and officers of this division
is to ascertain Arst whether the government
honestly owes this man the money which he
claims, and second, having SO asoertained, to
find some law which will authorize us to pay
it to him. This is sound doctrine.
