The Worlds Fair Trouble.

There is SO much trouble of one kind aud
another in connection with the Worlds
Fair that the public will begin to ask, after
awhile, whether 1t would not be the wiser
course to abandon the fair. The national
fair commission a nd the local directors of
the fair don't seem to get along we'll to-
gether, and congress has found it necessary
to appoint committee to inquire into the
necessity for the extravaganza expenditures
which the national commission proposes to
Wholesome of those expenditures being
enormous salaries for those who have bsen
so fortunate as to get the positions of honor
in which there is little or no work to be
DONE
The local directors all along have been
moved apparently more by desire to open
the way for big real estate speculation
than to make the fair a success. They dis
cussed the question of a site until tho pub
lie was tired of it, and then finally
offered site that was really double one,
but which was accepted bv the rational
commission because it was thought that it
could be made to answer the demands of the
exposition.
"hhouO "dAtAlle lOI lue approval Ol CDe
national commission the local directors
then went ahead making contracts for build
ings, and the buildings were so located that
the most important of them would be on the
lake front part Of the site, thus making
such a division of the exhibit as would
amount virtually to two exhibits, the better
being on the lake front.
OF course the national commission OBJ
| jected to this, and demanded that the con-
tracts for buildings should be annuled
and that Chicago should furnish site upon
which the whole exhibit could be placed to
| advantage. The contracts have besn sus-
pended, but the site has not been changed,
and it is by no means certain that it will
be. The local directors seem determined to
carry out their plans relative to real es-
tate speculation, aud if thoy are successful
the fair will not be such credit to the
| country as the public has been led to
| believe it Will.
No doubt the fair would be great success
if it could be kept free from all jobs, but
from present Indications that will be found
to be impossible. Too many of those con-
nected with it seem to be too intent on gath
ering in the almighty dollar to serve the
people faithfully and honestly.

Having been unable to defeat B. r. Till
man for governor of South Carolina, the
old bourbons who opposed him are trying
to ostracize him socially by means of the
South Carolina Club ard the state ball, y
says the New York Press 1.-The club man
ages this ball. 1t has just resolved to invite
no Carolinian to it who is not member
of the club, and as Tillman wears flannel
shirts there is no possibility of his being
elected to membership" There is no ostra-
cism in that. Because Mr.. Tillman hap
pened to be elected governor of the state by
the crowd, that doesn't make him member
of the South Carolina Club. Nor does it
entail upon that purely social organization

Hon. William E. Russell, the democratic

Chandler at His OLD Tricks.

Special dispatches from Concord, n. II. f.,
say that Senator Cnandler-the Chandler
who figured SO conspicuously in Florida in
1s76-has plan for Sealing the state from
the democrat& There is no doubt that the
democrats have a majority Of the next leg
islature in New HAMPSHIRE, and if not de-
frauded of their rights they viii elect a
United States senator from that state 1t is
is said that Chandler favors call
ing an extra session of the pres
ent legislature and passing a measure,
based upon the csnsus of this year, that
will give the republicans a majority in the
legislature that was elected on Nov. 4. The
new legislature does not meet until the first
Wednesday in January, and the term Of
the present legislature expires seven days
before the meeting of the new one.
OF course the proposed legislation would
not be constitutional, but what does Chand-
Ter care for the constitution His whole
career shows that he does not regard conssi-
tutional limitations as of any consequence.
II he can gain a point by overriding the
constitution he is not the man to hesitate.
The democrats in the new legislature will
hardly submit TO having the fruits of their
victory snatched from them by any scheme
that Chandler may concoct, and if he and
his fellow republicans undertake to steal
the state there will be lively times in New
Hampshire.

There was d large nlco sting at the Pitts
burg Builders Exchange Thursday, COM
posed Of members of the builders trades
held for the purpose of forming an organi-
zation against the various labor organiza-
lions. There we're present as employers of
workmen, painters, plasterers, bricklayers,
tilelayers, lumbermen and general supply
man, most of whom are members of the
builders exchange A temporary organi-
cation was effecJed by the election of George
S. Fulmer, a prominent contractor, as
chairman. He is the originator of the plan,
and explained that the contractors in the
various lines of trade were practically at
the mercy Of labor unions, and that as a
means of protection they should continue
in an organization, and thus be able more
successfully TO deal with the demands made
by the labor unions. His ldes was ap-
pareltly acceptable, and it was about de-
cided to call the new organization the
Protective League" They adjourned to
meet in short time and perfect perma-
nent organization. Thus it goes. One
aggressive organization provokes another,
and between them all they keep the indus
trial world in q continual turmoil.

Aside from the cost Of the vessel the loss
of the torpedo cruiser Serpent is severe
blow to the British navy. No less than 173
officers and man went down with her. As
she was a new cruiser of a type that has
been criticised for want Of stsngth, the first
thought suggested from news of the acct
dent was that some structural weakness
had besn developed during the storm in
which she went down. But later reports
show that she struck on sunken rock OF
Cape Finisterre, and the question as to
structural weakness remains unan-
swered. Nor can the navigator be
blamed, for the waters there are
very treacherous, and on a night wher
lights could not be seen the most skillfu
captain would be liable to run among the
rocks. Twenty years ago the British turrot
ship Captain went down in the same waters,
and not one of the 500 persons on board was
saved. OF late the British navy has been
particularly unfortunate Several war
vessels and many men were lost in 1SS9-'90
Without her armament the Serpent cost the
government nearly 100000. That is no
light loss to any navy. Besides, it bring.
great distress upon many families and in
wolves a vast sum for pensions

Last Wednesday Mr.. Edwin Booth cele-
brated the 57th anniversary OF his birth by
playing "Brutus" in Julius Cesar" in tbs
chief city of his native State. All the
Baltimore papers made special mention OF
the event, beng naturally proud to claim as
a Mary!ander the greatest of the American
tragedians, though Mr.. Booth himself, with
his accustomed modesty in private life,
might have preferred to have his birthday
ann .versary pass unnoticed. For forty
years he has been constantly on the regular
stage, and has won its highest honors.
Baltimore papers revive a story of his first
appearance in his native place, Belair,
where he was spending the summer of
1850 with Mr., j. S. Clarke,
who has since become scarcely
less distinguished as comedian.
Dramatic recitations by the two young
actors constituted thu entertainment.
Booths selections we're all taken from the
plays of Shakespeare in which he has since
become distinguished. Among other things
recited there forty years ago was the quar-
rel scene from Julius Cesar" in which
Mr.. Booth played "Brutus" and Mr.. Clarke
was Cassius. 1t is difficult to imagine the
comedian in such role, but it no doubt
afforded good entertainment to Mr.. Booths
old neighbors. And now, after forty years OF
increasing fame, Mr.. Booth plays in the
same great quarrel scene, before Mary
land audience, on the anniversary of his
birth. No doubt thousands of others all
over America would have liked to join the
Bsltimoreans in doing honor to the eminent
