Aid for the Fair.

| Before the House voted on the question of
| a site for the fair those who represented
| Chicago said that the government would
/ not be asked to aid the fair if that city got
it. They even went 50 far as 10 say that it
would not be necessary to appropriate as
much as 81, 500, 0OO-the amount that had
been about agreed upon-to meet the ex-
pense of the government exhibit. They
thought that $4,000 or 100000 for that
purpose would be sufficient.
There are reasons for thinking that very
soon after the question of the site is finally
settled the government will be asked for
loan Of s., 0OO, 900 or SO OO0.O 900 for the fair
It will require S12,OOO,O0O or SIS, 100000 to
make the fair a success, and Chicago, by
extraordinary exertions, has been able thus
far to get subscriptions of only $4,000, 900
or s., 900. Her representatives say that
she will be able to raise all the money that
will be needed by means Of bonds. They
will probably find that bonds will not be a
much sought after security.
New York had guarantee fair fund Of
S15,000.000, but the republican leaders
didn't want New York to have the fair.
They wanted Chicago to have it for polit-
cal reasons, and it is doubtless a part of
their programme to provide from the treas
ury the money needed to make the fair
what it should be. They have control of
all the branches of the government, and can
make as big an appropriation for it as
they want TO. The fair will be in republi-
can hands, and they can do pretty much as
they please with whatever money they get
from the government.
Mr.. Depew said Chicago had got white
elephant when the House voted to give her
the fair, and white elephant it will prove
to be if she has to bear the financial burden
alone. If the government bears it she will
not find the fair very much of an elephant.
In very little while it will be apparent
whether or not the republican leaders in
tend that the government shall furnish the
money for the fair. 1t may be, however,
that aid from the government will not be
asked at present. 1t is pretty certain to be
asked sooner or later, however, and it will
be granted on the ground that the country
cannot afford to permit the fair to be a fail
ure.

For Better, For Worse"

Ellen ThoTneycrof Fotrler in Nel0 York
Tribune.
Quoth he, Sweetheart, thou art young and
fair,
And thy story hath just begun;
But am as old
AS a tale that is told,
40 And the days of my youth are done"
"O'er ruins olden the clinging moss
Doth mantle of velvet spread;
Shall the climbing flower
Be more to the tower
Than l to my loYe?" she said.
Quoth he, Sweetheart, thou hast lands and
AuI tnou knowest not want nor woe;
AS beggar poor
| stand at thy door
And only can love thee So"
Ihrougn leatiess forests the sunbeems creep,
All the wealth of their gold to shed;
And are they more fair
To the woodland bare
Than to my Love?' she said.
Quoth he Sweetheart, thou art good and kind,
And wouldst never the lowest spurn;
But the storm of life
With its toll and strife
Has rendered me harsh and stern"
The broOket murmurS its sweetest lays
AS it makes for the rocks ahead:
Shall the streanlet's song
Be more brave and strong
Than for my Love:n she said.
Quoth he, Sweetheart, thou art bthe and gay,
And thou never hast known q care;
But my face is worn
And my heart is torn
With the sorrow I've had to bear"
THE stars neer spange the sapphire sky
Till tn brightness of day has fled;
Shall the pale starlight
Be truer tonight
Than to my Love-" she said.
Quoth he, Sweetheart who art young and fair,
Will thy wonderful love to me
Through sorrow and shame
Be always the same?'
NAY, it rather will grow" said she,
Again he cried, "Will it last Sweetheart,
Till thy lover lies cold and dead,
And thy latest breath
Has been hushed in deaths"
"Aye, longer than that" she said.

Three Geniuses in q scrape.
Ea'ene Fields London Letter to the chfca

Eugene Fields London Letter to the Chicago
Aelrs.
= n amusing story is told In club circles of
Lord Charles Beresford and Mr. Gerald Coke,
two OF the most conspicuous swells about town.
They were walking in Piccadilly one afternoon
wh-n q dirty little crossing sweep importuned
them Tor tu'pence- NO, I'll not give you a
penny, said Sir Charles gruifiy; but then, as il
bright thought occurred to him. he added:
But III tell you what will do. You see that
constable yOnderf Well, if you run across the
street and mop your broom up and down his
back, III give you halfa-crowD." IN do it,
sir, said the boy, and away he started OF
course the policeman very properly resented
the shocking insult of having a small boy mop
muddy broom up and down his constabulary
uniform. He LAID hands upon the small boy
and proceeded TO drag him to the station.
dis conscience pricking him, Sir Charles stepped
across the street and demonstrated with the
officer, but, SO far from tolerating calm dispas-
sionate argument, the officer took Sir Charles
into custody, too, upon the ground that he
sought TO interfere with a constable in the per-
Iormance OF duty. About this time Mr. Gerald
Coke came up and protested against the arrest
or his friend. Aha" quoth the officer, $50
you want to interfere, do you! Well fancy I'll
nave 10 run you In, too Il don't mind" said
Mr.. Coke, indifferently. So the procession
moved to the police station.
The inspector in charge gazed at the three
culprlts austerely; he was a shrewd and august
all his life.
so you've been interfering with the consta-
bic, eh?" said he. solemnly. "a serious charge.
your name?''
Mr.. Gerald Coke" answered the gentleman
addressed
Now, even this august and solemn inspector
mad certain sense of humor, and the thought
that any man charged with interfering with a
constable should masquerade as the swell Mr..
Coke struck the august and solemn inspector
as Joke, rare and mighty joke
%, you're Mr.. Gerald Coke, are you?' said
he, sarcastically. YES, you look like Mr.. Ger
ald Coke; very .good-capital-hal hal And
who are you, sir?''
Sir Charles Beresford ~ said that gentleman.
This, to the thinking of the august and SOL
emn inspector, simply deepened, ramifed and
complicated the joke
SO you're Sir Charles Beresford, ehY'' he
chucked, grimly. ''Sir Charles Beresford, chr
Well this is splendid you look like Sir Charles,
you do; splendid, splendid! And now tell me,
my boy, said the inspector, turning to the
small boy, whats your name?'
The ragged little urchin was in a serious
quandary. He looked at Sir Charles and Mr..
Coke. Look ahere," said he, Il don't know
who yez are or watts yer game, but - if I'm
going back on palr' Then, turning boldly to
the inspector, he said, in tone full of heroic
confidence: I'm der Dock of Wellington"

Georgia Cities.

The New Orleans Rcdylne in recent
article called attention 10 the fact that,
although the south has population of many
millions, she has very few large cities New
Orleans and Louisville were the only south
ern cities which had a population of over
1000 when the census of 1880 was taken,
and no other came near that number. The
Hcdyune adds that ''the great preponder-
ance Of rural populations in the southern
states proclalms them essentially agricul-
tural communities"
The great industrial development of the
south within the last ten years has caused
wonderful growth in the southern cities,
and the coming census will show some
striking figures. The population of several
of them will be seen to have more than
doubled. Birmingham has grown from an
obscure village in 1880 to busy, populous
city. Richmond, Nashville, Memphis and
Chattanooga have made fine records.
1t is probably well within the truth,
however, to say that the cities of Georgia
have more than kept pace during tie last
decade with their southern sisters. Not
only have Savannah, Macon, Atlanta,
Columbus and Augusta added many thous-
ands to their population and millions of dol
lars to their wealth, but the smaller cities
Rome, Brunswick, Athens, Albany, Amer
icus and others - have made prog
ress on which they can pride them
selves. New Orleans is of course the me-
tropolis OF the south. With Louisiana ex-
Guided, it need not be surprising if the
cities of Georgia show by the next census
greater aggregate population than those of
any other southern state, with possibly the
further exception of Kentucky.
Georgia has a habit of taking the lead,
and the wonderful progress of her cities
gives fair reflection of the progress of the
state. She is fairly entitled to the position
Of the empire state Of the south, and In
stead of thinking of surrendering the posi-
ton, she is hard at work to maintain it.
