CLARA TO LOUISE.
DEAR LOUISE {:

l am one of the many citizens
who has high opinion of trustee
L. A, Cornish. He is no coward
and when he takes a position be
stands to it. 1t Is manly in any
man who adhears to a principle. |
am always pleased to defend any
man when l think that he is right
and is doing right.
There is a division in the choir
of the 18th Street Presbyterian
Church. | understand that the
unpaid members OF the choir want
ed Mrs. Lena Miller McKenn VITO
sing with them at the temperance
meeting which she refused to do,
unless she was paid, which of
course was somewhat distasteful to
the ladies and gentlemen who sing
without charge. Director Thomp-
klns is undecided what he will do,
but, the impression Is that the
services of Mrs McKenny will be dis
pensed with. | see no reason whv
she should be retained in the choir
to lts detirment. There are some
ladies IN the choir make just as
good music as Mrs. McKennv. A
majority, in fact, two thirds of the
members are IN favor of doing
away with the services of Mrs.
McKenny. | would suggest to direc-
tor ThOmpkins to reorganlze his
choir and dispense with the SER
vices of Mrs. McKenny. You have
worked too hard and have got too
good choir to let one or two per
sons be the cause of 1t beng brok.
en- up.
The female protest convention
dldnot meet in this city as it was
expected. 1t is supposed that the
white women of the Worlds Fair
COMMITTEE gave them the usual
0rl6e. Some people are very easily
satisfied.
L had a chat with DIR. Bowen,
pastor of the Asbury church a few
days ago and l find him to be one
OF the most learned and profound
thinkers in the church.
Miss Maria Jordon a teach
er who is fond of speculatlng will
be compelled to pay one hundred
dollars, for having become bonds
man for one jack Ferrell, said to be
thief. She was paid twenty FIVE
dollars for going on this bond and
to her surprise the man jumped his
bail and she made no disposition to
catch him, hence the bond was
forfeited. But, instead of Miss
Jordon, having the whole bond to
pay, the president, was appealed |
to to relieve Miss Jordon which he |
did. | hope that the lady will
learn some sense and not 60 on any |
body else bond. It is dangerous |
practice. especially when you have
only received twenty five dollars
and loose over one hundred.
l think the colored people owe it
to themselves to support the Home
for trIendless women and children
on Meridian Hill. Mrs. Warning,
president, is doing all in her power
to build up these helpless women
and children. 1t is very strange
that our people take no more in
terest in matters than what they
do. The Young Mems Christian
could not do a better
thing than to aid these ladies who
have charge of this home. | shall
be at the Literary to hear Col.
Arnold.
Yours truly,
CLARA.

WORLDS FAIR NOTES.

The Holstein- Freisian assoc iRtiOn
one of the most prosperous cattle
breeders associations in America,
has appropriated $40, 900 to be paid in
premiums on it's cattle shown at the
exposition.
Oregon will try to raise at least
| 500, 900 for Worlds Fair exhibit.
A meeting for that purpose will be
held at Portland on June 16, under
the auspices of the Oregon Board Of
Agriculture.
The assertion that the Exposition
buildings cannot be erected within
the required time because of scarcity
of structural iron is entirely without
foundation in fact. No trouble on
that score will be encountered.
The American Jersey cattle club at
it's annual meeting recently in New
York, appropriated 10000 to secure
proper exhibition of Jerseys at the
Exposition.
One of the most unique attractions
of the Exposition will be q bazaar of
all nations, which is to be located ut
the intersection of Midway plaisance
with jackson Park. The Exposition
Directory has granted space for the
bazaar, and set apart eight acres for 1t.
In this area Is expected to be crowded
stores of every nation on the globe,
and all of them will be allowed TO
sell trophies and relics Of the EXPOSE
ton. Native merchants will be
in charge of these stores, in every
case. A company in Japan has sent
in q request to be allowed to build
Japanese village, with picturesque
streets, and to people it with 500 Japs.
Similar propositions have been re-
ceived from Cairo and several orien-
tai countries, and the grounds and
buildings committee is puzzled to
find space for them all. 1t is not i'm
probable that the larger portion of
the Midway plaisance will be given
over to such villages.
Professor William Saunders, direc.
tor of the experimental farms of the
Canadian department Of agriculture.
is in correspondence with Chief
Buchanan, with q view to getting
space for big display.
President Bonney, of the Worlds
Congress Auxiliary, says that the
indications are that the proposed con-
crosses on education, temperance,
religion, agriculture, labor and other
great subjects, will be so large that
great difficulty will be experienced in
providing large enough assembly
rooms.
Quite q number of the cities in the
United States are making efforts to
raise funds with which to make spec

Justice Richie yesterday delivered
judgment on the application for
writ Of habeas corpus 10 enquire into
the legality of the detention of Louis
Piaget. His lordship thought the
statements were duly authenticated
and he was unable TO say there was
no evidence before him that an
offence had been committed on the
ground that the crime was not suffi-
GENTLY stated in the warrant. The
warrant was in the form prescribed
by the act, and the papers were
good. Another ground taken was
that the offence as shown by the
dispositions, ETC., was, If an offence at
all, larceny and embezzlement. AL
though. from the evidence before his
lordship, he was inclined TO think
that the offence with which the per-
son is charged is larceny, the line
dividing these crimes is so fine that it
is difficult to say, before the evidence
is given in the trial, whether the
crime Is larceny or embezZlement.
There could be no doubt that If q
person were charged with embezzle-
ment In Canada, and the evidence
disclosed larceny, only, the magis-
trate would be justified in committing
him for trial. He saw no ground for
discharging the prisoner, and there
fore dismissed the summons.
q. A. Smith, attorney. for the
prisoner. obtained q summons from
Judge Richie, last evening which is
returnaole before Judge Weatherbe,
at Windsor, today. Under it the pros
secution are asked to show reason
why the prisoner shall not be re-
leased under habeas corpus proceed
ure. If it is granted the accused will
be Immediately liberated.

THE Eighth ward people came out on
top in their troubles with the street
railway. The company discontinued
the Thirty-fir street line last week,
and the Eighth ward people met and
appointed committee to wait on the
street car management, and have the
service restored. The committee were
successful, and now car runs at inter-
walls of 20 minutes between the junction
and lakes Harriet and Calhoun. The
speakers at that ward meeting declared
in favor of cross-town line on Thirty
first street to connect with the Mime
haha lines. That Is just precisely what
The IRISH STANDARD has been urging
for the past SIX months, and that is
what must be done. Parallel lines are
all right as far as they go, but we want
cross lines as well, The people of the
Eighth and Thirteenth wards are now
forced to come down town to get train
to Minnehaha. while the people south
Of Franklin, and east of Chicago ave-
nues muet go IN the opposite direction,
and many block IN a circuitous way, to
reach the lakes. That should not be So,
and the way to remedy this evil is to
build cross-town line on Thirty-firs
street. Will the council please do
something in this matter.

friends say their man will be returned
with larger majority than when
elected the first time. Of course we all
know that Mckinley is strong with
those of his party who believe in 9 rob.
Der tariff, and that his defeat for con-
gress last fall will stimulate his friends
to do their best. On the other hand
Governor Campbell's fearless policy
made HIM some enemies in his own
party, and Of course such disgruntled
ones are doing all they can to beat him.
Mckinley will have less to contend
with than the governor, and for that
reason would naturally make a strong
fight. But in spite of all these advan-
tages Major Mckinley will be defeated.
Governor Campbell will be his own sue
cessor. The farming community Of
Ohio are very much opposed to McK1n-
ley, and will of course do all they can to
elect Campbell. We all know that NC
Kinley is a fighter; that he never knows
what it is to be beaten, and for these
reasons will fight until the last vote is
counted. So it behooves all good and
loyal Democrats in Ohio to stand by the
man who brought confidence and a gen
ulne sense Of duty to the Office which he
so conscientiously fills.

Of a large yield. Unless it gets too
much ram it will make many an Irish
home happy this winter. With good
potato crop, better fax crop and an
abundance of hay and oats. the Irish
farmers Golfers will be well filed the
coming winter. There are Of course
places in the west and north of Ireland
where the crops are not very good, be-
cause the land is not fit to raise good
crops, and these poor people will have
the old battles to fight over again. But
seeing that general election may be
called any time, we believe that Balfour
will not encourage evictions as he did
last winter. He will from now until the
coming general election is over do all he
can to convince the Irish people that he
is their friend, and of course could not
spoil his plans by assisting the landlords
in evicting their tenants. Putting all
these things together we look for more
happy time for the Irish people the
coming winter than they have seen for
some years.
