his mind he went 10 bed. Sleep came
but the thought still remained He be-
gan TO dream that he had received orders
to go to Tacoma on board the whalebsck.
The orders were imperative and dare moi
be disobeyed. He loved the ocean voyage
but dreaded the ship on which he was 10

things and went on board the dreaded

MASSEY IN CHICAGO.
Delaware Knows What She Wants an,
VIII Rave IL or Nothing


VIII Rave IL or Nothing
For several weeks there has been
trouble in Worlds Columbian Exposition
circles concerning the Delaware exhi
bition building as it is proposed to be
erected
1t will be remembered that Delaware
has one OF the finest sites on the
grounds IL is between the sites chosen
by New York and Pennsylvania. This
was because the little Diamond State had
first choice Of ground.
This does not suit some Of the larger
states, and Chief Of Construction Bura-
ham has evidently become the willing
champion of the great objectors.
For several weeks he has been cores
ponding with the commissioners Of this
state. He implied that a 81, 500 building
would be out Of place between the pre-
tentious edi6ces to be erected by New
York and Pennsylvania. He wrote a
great deal about towers, domes, nimarets.
etc, that were "cleRr out of sight" Of
Delaware's appropriation.
Commissioner George v Massey has
gone to Chicago Before he went he
said that Delaware knew what she
wanted, and she would have it or have
nothing
Chairman Smith Of the State Board of
Commissioners said day or two ago that
those were the sentiments of every
Delaware commissioner so far as he knew.
