WONDERS FROM THE ORIENT.
Dr. Cyrus Adler to Collect Many Strange
Things for the Coming Worlds Fair,

III. SyruS hulcr 10 SOlieCC Many Strange
Things for the Coming Worlds Fair.
81 received my credentials Saturday as
commissioner for the worlds fair to Turkey,
Egypt, Syria and Persia" said DR.. Cyrus Adler
to representative of The STAR this morning
81 sail ten days hence, to be absent for one
year. The object of my trip is, in the first
place, to arouse interest on the part of the gov.
ernments of those countries in the coming ex-
position, to obtain contributions in the shape
of exhibits and to make observations of life and
affairs in the orient. An important feature of
the great show in Chicago is to represent the
| east its people, its manners and its products.
Instead of getting together lot of oriental
goods and putting them in glass cases for the
edltication OF the multitude, there will be
boulevard with cross streets each of which
will be made to represent with much ac-
curacy and vividness as possible an actual
street in an eastern city.
1t Is largely for the purpose Of making
such observations as will enable me to properly
construct these glimpses of eastern cities that
L am about to make this journey. The streets
will be actual copies of real ones that are most
| typical in Cairo, Damascus, BaGdad, Bayreuth,
Jerusalem, Alexandria, Constantinoplc and
elsewhere. l shall visit each of these towns
and shall obtain the necessary data on the spot.
With such surroundings visitors to the fair will
| be made to feel as If they were Iourneying
through inc orient. turning around q corner
| from n street in Bagdad they will find them
| selves in Damascus whence another turn will
take them into Jerusalem, and so on through
out an imaginary journey i'll eastern lands.
| They will have presented to them i'll this way a
| picture Of life it is lived i'll those PARKWAY
countries. In the shops along the way they
will gaze upon the people engaged in their ma
tice occupations, and incidentally they will be-
| hold the actual production of the manufactures
| placed on view.
For example, the glass workers Of Hebron
will be seen making their famous ware after
the same methods they have practiced for
| thousands OF years. Damascus. naturally. will
| be represented by its manufacture OF cutlery,
| for which through many centuries it has
| been famed. From Syria will come the makers
Of silk and carpet woods. while the Egyptians
will show what they can do in the way of max
ing furniture and tanning skins An oriental
tannery will probably be point of interest IN
the exposition; likewise an eastern theatcr and
eating house. The curing of fruit the manu-
factdre of preserves, and the preparation Of
prunes for market will be among the things
worth seeing. But these only few of the
ideas which are likely to be carried out. l can
tell you better when come back about the
wonders Of that distant part of tho world which
the Columbian fair may be expected to dis
| play"

A FAMILY DIFFICULTY,
James Cant Gets Thee Months For
Having a Concealed Weapon.

AoSiHS u SOnceaIeO w eapOn.
Don't hit him! Don't hit him. cried q
colored woman. Her cries were addressed to
Policemen Smith and Sanford, who were stand
Ing at LIST and L streets southwest about
O'Clock this morning. The individual whom
she did not want them to strike was James
Cant. her husband He had been drinking
and the officers received information that he
had made an attempt to shoot his wife. When
they reached the corner Jim and his wife were
there, and, fearing he would attempt to take
her life, they arrested him. Whether he in
tended to kill her is not known, but it is known
that he had the means to do it. for soon after
being taken in custody he made an attempt to
riu himself OF a murderous looking weapon.
Inc shining revolver OF one of the blue-coated
guardians OF the peace was drawn to show
Cant that he was not the only one in the party
VINO had the necessary means of warfare if it
came to the worst
THE CLUE AND NOT THE PISTOL USED.
There was trouble in making the arrest and
the weight of one Of the officers clubs came
down upon the Negroes head with such force as
to intiict wound that is likely to cause him to
remember with sadness what occurred on that
street corner this morning. few minutes
later he found himself behind the iron bars of
the fourth precinct station. Cries of murder"
had attracted the officers.
When Cant appeared before Judge Miller he
plead not guilty to a charge of carrying con-
cealed weapons and was given three months in
default of payment of a fine of $50.

national banks the department is withdrawing
them fast as it can be done without injury
to the commercial interests of the country"

bank in which attention was called TO the fact
that by the treasury statement of October Is
S24, 100000 was on deposit III national banks,
while on October 81 S29, 900 was on deposit
Secretary Window explains that the statement
OF October 10 includes money on deposit subject
only to drafts by the United States treasurer

Congratulations for Mr.. O'Brien,

Mr.. O'Brien, the Irish envoy, in conversation
yesterday said the mail thus far received con-
tanned hundreds Of letters of encouragement
and hope. He could not give any definite idea
of the program to be followed by the Irish
party after visiting Boston and Philadelphia
but said it was among the possibilities that it
would provide for visit to Canada. Il know"
continued Mr.. OBrien, laughingly, THAT it is
a little risky, but | doubt very much whether
the imperial authorities would attempt to
arrest me on Canadian soil. You see it would
incur the expense of sending me back to Ire
land at the cost OF the British crown. But an
lrishman can never tell what's going to happen
and arrests ii an old story III my public career.
Besides, my arrest would cast stigma upon
Canada, which gravely doubt would be accept
able to the Canadian people"
