This morning his condition was so

The Fair Fight

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-It is Chicaeo
against the field. This is the latest phase
of the fight for the worlds fair. The St.
Louis people have evidently lost conf
dence in their own cause, but are bent
upon revenge. They propose to defeat
Chicago at any cost.
1t is thought to be more probable than
ever that the st. Louis people will throw
their influence in favor of New York
rather than permit Chicago to gain the
coveted honors.
The strength shown by the friends Of
Chicago on the various ballots which
were taken Thursday was an eye-opener
to the New Workers who, ever since
Chauncey Depew's late speech, have been
declaring that the contest was entirely
settled in favor OF New York. IL begins
to look as if Chicago were quite capable
of holding her own against the combined
opposition Of New York, st. Louis and
asbington.

Bad Bacri Pasha.

The history of Bacri Pasha is an excel
lent illustration of how things are done
in Turkey. This man was some years
ago the prefect of Para. During his
term of Office the burglaries that took
place became so frequent that at last
suspicion arose that there must be some
collusion between the authorities and the
housebreakers. Detectives were set to
work, and it was soon discovered that
Bacri Pasha, the prefect, was a partner
with the burglars and shared their plum
der.
The man was arrested and tried, and
so convincing and overwhelming was
the evidence that he was convicted and
sentenced to five years imprisonment
with hard labor. But, to the astonish-
ment of everybody, he was reprieved
and shortly afterward nominated gov
ernor Of Scutari, the post he now holds.
This story is fair sample of what hap
pens every day in Turkey and carries a
lesson with it which any intelligent per-
son may read for himself. The censor
ship of the press has now been carried
to such point that the local newspapers
at Constantinople are worthless for any
purpose of information whatever.-New
York Telegram.

Four Prospective States.
New York SUM-

The immediate candidates before
Congress for admission as States are
Idaho and Wyoming, side by side in
the Northwest, and Arizona and New
Mexico, side by side in the Southwest.
The latter have the advantage in popu-
lation, taking the figures of the census
of 1880 as the basis; but the northwest
ern pair claim the greater ratio Of
growth in the last ten years. New Mex
leo is undoubtedly the most populous
of these four Territories. The census of
1880 gave her close upon 12O, 900 people,
so that she is likely to have from 10000
to 200, 900 now. Oregon had 174,T08 in
1880; Colorado, 1914, ,527; Nevada only 81
266. New Mexico has great mineral
wealth, including copper and coal, as
well as gold and silver. Arizona, her
neighbor, has, of course. the same class
of mineral resources, and some valuable
timber tracts yet to be developed.
What is remarkable about these South
western Territories is that though q
great part of their area is sterile, and
though both of them need irrigation
much more than they do Statehood, yet
the regions that are fertile are remarks
bly, productive. Luscious fruits are
grown in New Mexico, and her cereals
are said to surpass In quality some of
those of famous valleys in the North.
Idaho passed good part of the sum-
mer in making q state constitution to
be submitted to Congress. She esti-
mates her population at nearly 10000,
which supposes quadrupling since
1880. She can now count on q mineral
product of from $40, ,000, 600 to SIS, ,000,-
600 in any good year. Wyoming, which
contained little over 20 900 people ten
years ago. does now claim quite 100, 900,
but thinks that she also has at least
quadrupled her numbers. Stock rails
ing is her speciality, and some agricul-
ture is gradually developed with the
range cattle industry. Her remarkable
deposits ofsoda in proximity to resour-
ces of sand, quartz and limestone have
led to the establishment OF extensive
glass works. All of these Territories are
Interesting, each In its way. They are
80 coupled, too, and so related geog-
raphically and politically 10 each other
and to the rest Of the union, that 1t
looks very much as If the next great adj
mission OF Territories would have to be
In quartet, like the last.

A Dream Worth Having.

A remarkable recovery from paralysis
is reported in st. Louis, and physicians
are deeply interested in it. Jacob Ia
brinskie, who directed the building of
the Laclede Gaslight company's works,
and who was in the employ of the Man
haitian Gas company in New York, as
superintendent of their works for twenty.
two years, has suddenly recovered the
use of paralyzed leg and arm. He is
now go years of age. Six years ago,
while in Paterson, N. j., he was stricken
with paralysis and incapacitated for
work. Mr.. Zabrinskie said today: ga
few weeks ago I was feeling as usual
My left leg was wholly without feeling.

that I recovered the use of my leg,
and had-for when I awakened got
up and found I could walk without

Rlrnlrr 10 RIeh nrsns romb..

A contract was signed yesterday for
the construction Of magnificent mau-
soleum in Laurel Hill cemetery for the
Floods, and work upon it will commence
in q few days and be prosecuted steadily
by large force of men for year, when
it is hoped that it will be finished. The
mausoleum is to be finer than the beau
tiful one lately completed by James G.
Fair and equal to that of the Crocker
family. It will cost at least 800, 900.
It will be modelled after the Jay Gould
mausoleum, but in beauty of structure
will, it is stated, even surpass it. Its
form is to be that of peripteral Ionic
tenaple, and it will be constructed eI,-
tirely of California material, and almost
entirely of granite. The only other ma
terial used will possibly be little mar
BILE along the margins for the recepta-
cles for the dead. Even this will be dis
pensed with, if possible, and artistically
worked granite substituted.
The great tomb will be about thirty
two feet long and twenty feet wide, and
will reach to a height of twenty feet.
There are to be twenty-eight columns,
each being polished piece without joint
and unmarried in any way. The celia
will be ten. feet eight inches in height,
with an angle or volute caps on all sides.
When completed the mausoleum will in
the interior have the effect of a great
mirror, as its granite sides, and even
the floor, which will be of granite, will be
as smooth as glass. The dome in its in
terror will be of paneled and curiously
carved granite.
The mausoleum, as at first constructed,
will have receptacles for six persons, or
as many as constitute the Flood family.
When the monument is completed the
remains of Mr.. Flood will be transferred
from the O'Brien vault to their per-
manent resting place.-San Francisco

Replaced the Hat.

Even the much despised tramp has
often more honor than he's given credit
for, as witness the following from New
Jersey: Fourteen years ago tramp
knocked at the door Of Daniel Palmer,
In South Orange township, Essex
county, and asked for o hat. by mis-
take one of the daughters gave Him her
fathers best silh hat. discovering the
mistake just as the tramp started away
with it. An exclamation by her sister
apprised the tramp of the prize he had
received. Little thought was after given
to the matter until few mornings ago,
when a clean new hat boz was found on
the front porch. It contained a new
silk hat, and this explanation within on
slip Of paper: ITO replace your fathers
best silk hat, taken by me fourteen
years ago. '"-Exchange.

eide att st. Elikabeth's few days since,

thirteen OF fourteen ounces more than

exhibited no symptoms of disease OF
malformation, SO far as could be told,

Vick's Floral Guide.

We have received from James Wick, Rochester, N.

ance and convenience of arrangement surpasses
ANYTHING IN this line which We have ever had the
privilege Of seeing before. Il Is pamphlet eight
BY ten inches in tize, and with the covers. which
are by no means the least important part of It,
tains an event one hundred pages. Although called
floral guide," it is devoted 10 vegetables as well
and includes ss full list and description OF both
flowers, vegetables and also small fruits az could
be brought within the compass OF a book of this
size.
In all that the Vicks have undertaken their aim
seems to have been to attain to absolute per
lection as possible and probably one ever did SO
much towards bringing the cultivation Of flowers to
the high standard which 1t has now attained as did
the head Of this firm.
The firm takes the came pride in raising
choice vegetables as in developing attractive
varieties Of flowers and after using their seeds for
number of years we are able to recommend them
in the highest terms.
We advise all our readers to send 10 cents for the
Guide (Which can be deducted from first order): and
If there are any of lady friends who succeed
in growing natural rose which will compare In
beauty with the New Striped Rose show, in the
