A DUAL EXHIBIT.

So far as California is concerned the
Worlds Fair is likely to be a scattering ex-
hibition of natural and artificial products.
individuals will be invited to send articles
at the II own expense to the competitive ex-
hibit, while a separate display Of California
products will be made in a State building.
Whether this plan is TO be carried all
through the fair, or whether California is to
be eXcel tOnal in respect to a separate eX-
bibit, is not at present known. There is
certainly no reason why each State should
not have an exhibit on its OVID account if
it is willing to stand the expense. The
Chronicle, whose proprietor assumes gen.
eral management OF the fair, says:
OF course The sum of 100000, already appro-
priaied, would be easily consumed in construct
ing a building OF such magnitude 1888 long by
$50 widc). and then no money would be left for
running expenses and TO put the exhibits into a
building in proper shape and to maintain them
after their installation. The consideration Of
facts like these is necessarily ia al TO the idea of
a separate exhibit; but the obstacles pointed
out do not preclude California from making such
a display in a state building as VIII most thor
oughly dveitise her resources.
We do not know exactly what idea the
publir will derive from the above, which
himself. The public is informed that the
State appropriation will be exhausted in
constructing a suitable building, and then
told that the fact of the appropriation
being used up in constructing a place to
put exhibits in Will not prevent such dis
play in a State building as will most thor
oUghly advertise our resources. There are
people who will not think it good policy to
the fair grounds, leaving the display to be
made at the expense Of individuals. who
will be cut off from the chances of winning
prizes and medals. in view Of the active
part Mr.. de Young's paper reports Mr.. de
Young 10 have taken in the management of
the World Fair, one would suppose that
he had definite plans in regard to the Cali
fOTEia exhibit. The article from which we
have quoted certainly holds ont the IDEA CT
both a diStTbutiye and collective exhibit;
that is, an exhibit distributed according to
the methods OF classification throughout the
fifteen departments, and a second collective
exhibit in Slate building. Since Mr.. de
YOung's paper has represented the pTOprie-
tor as the guiding spirit Of the National
Commission, the public would like to know
what his plans are. Would he have col
lective exhibit and no other, or distribu-
tive exhibit and no other, or would ne have
both? Can the 100000 State appropriation
be used in case a diStTibutive exhibit and
no other is decided upon? California is
deeply interested not only in lis part in the
Worlds Fair, but in the fair as d national
undertaking.. 1t would be poor satisfaction
to rs if the verdict Of the world should
be that the far was a failure, in spite Of a
fine display from the State of California

THE sPEAKERsHIP.

When the Democrats woke UP one morn
ing in last November and found that they
had elected large majority Of the men,
beTs Of the next House they concluded that
the time had come to give the South the
Speaker. Mills of Texas and Crisp of
Georgia came gaYlY to the front with Con-
federate records that could hardly help to
please. The former had been Chairman Of
the Committee Of Ways and Means, and, as
such, leader of the Democratic side of the
House. Crisp was only shade lower in
the service Both were able men whose
personal integrity had never been called in
question. But the present appearances are
that the Speakership is not for either. A
council of Democratic chiefsahas determined
that the Speaker must come from the North.
The reasons given for tins decision are
somewhat MephistOpheleau. 1t is urged
that if the Speaker IS from the South his
distribution of chairmanships among South
ern members will be limited. 1t would hurt
the party in the North if Southern Speaker
should give the principal chairmanships to
Southern men. Southern asprants are said
to have been impressed with the wisdom of
this policy. They now see a chance to elect
a President and do not propose to fool il
away. The SpeakerShip is a good Office,
but the Presidency is better. There is an
other point upon which there is an apparent
inclination in Democratic councils to be
conservative. They are not nearly so sure
as they were in November that either free
trade or tariff FOE revenue only is win
ming issue. There has to be considerable
protection in the Democratic national plat
form. Democrats recall the fact that when
Mr.. Cleveland was elected the tariff plank
in the platform squinted toward protection.
They remember also that when Cleveland
was defeated the issue was protection or
free trade. These two facts acquire the
more prominence in the light Of third fact,
that when Mr.. Cleveland was elected the
Federal patronage was in the hands Of OPP
pOnents. while in the campaign that resulted
in his defeat the Democrats had full control
of it. The word has gone out that Mills
cannot be Speaker. Crisp is less objection
able. He used to vote on tariff issues with
Samuel J. Randall, though not quite SO
pronounced in his advocacy of protection as
that distinguished Democrat

DEATH A RELIEF,

The AgOnizing SuffernGs of a Child From
Hydrophobia.
After suffering all the dreadful horrors Of
hydrophObia for two days, little Agnes, the
eleven-year-old daughter of Thomas g.
Leadbeater, a Kensington cabinet-maker,
died yesterday morning. The child had en-
dured untold agonies before death released
her, and in her violent paroXysms of pain
five strong men were scarcely able to con-
troll her.
Nearly four weeks ago the little girl was
playing in front Of her parents residence
and cigar-store, at the corner of Fillmore
and Quincy streets, with several compan-
ions, when they were suddenly alta ked by
a strange dog, says a dispatch to the Pitts
burg Press. Agnes was first bitten, the ami
NAL sinking his teeth in both of her cheeks,
leaving holes which extended through
to her mouth, and also biting her
left arm. Three other children were also
slightly wounded before tie dog which was
an English terrier, escaped from the neigh
borhood. The girls ann and cheeks swelled
Immediately after she was bitten, but it was
not supposed at the time that the animal
was mad. Mrs. Leadbeater, however, en-
deavored TO find ii, visiting a number Of
houses In the vicinity, but failed 60 locate
the dog.
1t was not until Saturday that the deadly
virus began 10 show its effects. Little
Agnes then began to complain of pains in
her head, which shortly extended to her
whole body. She was placed in bed and
was seized with commissions, fT0thing at the
mouth at the sight of a glass of water. DR..
Nj. A. Wood was called in, but failed to re-
lieYe the child's sufferings, which rapidly
grew worse. Her cries we're distressing in
the extreme, as she pite0uSly implored her
friends for relief, while at intervals she
barked and howled like the animal which
had bitten her.
At the same time the little sufferer APP
peared TO be entirely conscious of her con-
ditlOn and readily recognized those around
her During her struggles she frequently
threw herself upon her knees in the bed and
repeated the prayers which she had learned
al her mothers knee, in the effort to forget
the agony.
Two consulting physicians were called in
by DT. Wood yesterday morning, but the
chlld's commissions were such that she had
to be held down by main force, swapping
and biting at those around her. Finally,
after several attempts failed, ether was adj
ministeTed. but il was some time before its
effect was visible. Agnes then became un-
conscious and remained in that condition
until death occurred, an hour and a half
later The body soon assumed curiOns
notified black and blue color over its entire
length. DR.. Wood pronounced the trouble
to be hydrOphObia in its worst form from
the outset.

HARD TO FIND.

Eastern Democrats have arrived at the
conclusion that Ex-senator Blair should
never have been nominated for the post of
Minister to China. He is represented as
much too radical in bis anti-Chinese views
to please the Chinese Government. The
World says his appointment was positively
an aifront to the government to which be
was accredited. The Sun thinks that Mr..
Blair's speech in the Senate, descriptive of
Chinatown in San Francisco, disqualified
him to be Minister to the Government
whose people had made Chinatown what he
described it to be. In justifying The rejec-
ton Of Mr.. Blair on account of his anti
Chinese record in Congress. the Democrats
practically take the ground that our Minis
ter to China must entertain views on the
Chinese immigration Issue which are agree
able to the Chinese Government The
supply of this kind of men is short The
chances are also that it will grow shorter,
year by year. At period VIII en- the country
is considering how to check European inmi-
grafton, advocates of unrestricted Chinese
immigration will be hard to find.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

The Canadians oil the Northwest have for
years discussed plans for opening the Hudson
Bay route thereby bringing Tie wheat fields of
that section OF the Dominion much nearer 10 the
English market. Efforts are now being made to
enlist the cooperation OF the British Government
nator Bolton, IN placing such proposition be-
fore the Canadian Senate. pointed out that not
only would Great Britain benefit pecuniarlly
from the construction OF such a railway, but it
would be OF great strategic Importance; and as a
precedent for asking ouch assistance he cited tie
case OF the SueZ Canal, in which England had
invested e4o00,000. Tie enterprise is, how
ever, confronted by a couple of dseonragiug
prospects-the fey letters OF prolonged winters,
and tue opposition Of the older provinces, who
would not like to see trade diverted from the ST.
Lawrence route.

is credited with 100000 or more, Austria with

THE ITATA AFFAIR.

The Charleston has gone to sea, the
Omaha has steamed out OF the harbor of
san Diego, the schooner Robert and Minnie
has been caught of San Pedro by a United
States Marshal and is now in the possession
of United States officials in that port; these
and these only are the facts up to date. All
the stories about orders from the Navy De-
partment to chase the Itata into Chilean
waters and seize her there are newspaper
c0njeetures; there may be some basis for
them, but they are more probably mere
guesses.
The status Of the Itata is a nice question
Of international law. If she carries no
known national flag and has no regular
clearance papers from any recognized sea-
port she is liable to be overloaded and
seized by any man-0f-war Of any nation on
the ground that she holds no commission nor
delegated authority from any sovereign or
state. But Ter captor must take h er into
some port and charge her with some def
mite offcnse. If he cannot make such a
charge stick he must let her 20. She could
not lie condemned at Valparaiso, or for the
matter of that in an American port either,
tor having inlringed the port regulations
Of San Diego. especially as the Collector Of
that port ceTtiles that, on examination, her
papers were found to be correct.
She is reported as flying the Chilean flag.
Her captain certainly carried no commission
from President BaImaeeda to levy war upon
CEileaus. ii is not suppoSabe that the Con-
g1es,jonal party. which has received no rec0g-
milton from foreign powers, could lawfully
&, mmissiOu a ship to levy war upon the
recognized Government Of Chile. The prac-
iTpal pgiDt in the controversy which ar
cyrdng to the newspapers. is yeXing the
mind Of the Secretary Of the Navy iS-What
wrong has the Ilata committed against the
United States2 She appears to have run

arms, TO have filed up with coal and Pro-
visions, for which she paid, and then to
have sailed away, carrying on her deck a
United States Marshal, who represented in
his single person the majesty and power Of
the republic; him she landed on The shore a
few miles away. In all this proceeding did
the stranger craft commit an outrage upon
the sovereignty Of the United States, or
a material injury which warrants our navy
in ndicting punishment on her outside of
our own territorial waters? Ii she did the
Charleston or the Omaha may properly take
her wherever she is found on the high seas
and bring her into San Francisco to be tried
before the Unied States court. But if she
committed no injury nor outrage of which
the nation can justly complain an American
naval captain who made prize Of her might
find the biggest kind of elephant on his
hands And yet foreign vessels must be
made to respect the port regulations of cur

Eradication of the Dread Disease by a
Very Simple Remedy.
This information" said a well-known
physician to me, " may save many lives; at
any rate it will prove an Invaluable boon to
people suffering from rheumatism in any
shape or form. Rheumatism, as probably
nearly everybody knows. is caused by
acdity of the blood. 1t should never be
neglected. This remedy, as l know by long
practice, is very efficaciouS and it is as SIM
pie as it is powerful.

matte twinge is experienced tie patient
should proceed to a drugstore and buy Is

dissolve slowly and swallow it. This should
be repeated at intervals of two hours until
the last yestige Of the malady has disap-
peaTed. In the meantime take a dose or
two of Rochelle salts.
"That." said the physician, Sis all there
is to it, but if taken as l have prescribed, it
