SHORT OF FUNDS.
More Money Needed by the
Worlds Fair Management.
Congress May be Asked for a
$5,OOO,OOO Loan.

Congress Will Also BE Asked to Pay for
All Medals and the Expenses of the
Jury of Award-Scheme to Draw 1OO,-
900 MiIitiamen to Chicago During the
Fair-Other Fair News.
CHICAGO, Sept. 3.-The national board
of commissioners of the worlds fair
and the lady managers met in this city.
One of the matters which came before
the commissioners is the question of
how to avoid the deficit in its appropria-
tion for the year of about $23, 900. 1t is
probable that this will be accomplished
by cutting down salaries. President
Palmer has already agreed to give up
his 5000 and Director General Davis
submits voluntarily to cut of $3, 900 on
his, and $l2, 900 to be saved by dispens-
ing with the April appropriation.
The afternoon papers say that the
commission has considered with favor a
proposition to ask congress to make the
fair management loan of $5,0O0,000,
taking a mortgage on the receipts for its
repayment, but that it has not been de-
cided upon. In any event, as the gov
ernment has provided for the giving of
medals and jury afterward, it is un-
derstood that congress will be asked to
appropriate enough money to pay for
the medals and the expenses of the jury
of ofaward-between $500, 900 and 800, ,000
Scheme to Draw NIilitiamen to the Fair.
A plan is on foot by which it is expect
ed to bring 100000 militiamen from the
various states to this city during the
worlds fair, The enterprise is to be
backed to the extent of $3.50, 900. A
camp is to be laid out contiguous to the
worlds fair grounds capable of accom-
modating 5000 to 5000 troops at time,
and the intention is to give the different
states in turn the use of the camp for
one week. There will be tents for mill
tiamen, barracks for families, large
parade ground, etc. 1t is intended, in
addition, to use the grounds when not
occupied by the military for athletic
contests of various descriptions, in which
it is proposed to have all the most noted
athletes of the world compete.
The board of lady managers of the
worlds Columbian exposition have
elected Mrs. Susan Gale Cook, of Ten
nessee, secretary of the board.

Perhaps S7,OOO,OOO.

WASHINGTON, Sept 3.-Congress is
asked to loan the worlds Columbian ex-
position s., 100000 at least, and perhaps
$1,000, 900. That is the decision of the
national commissioners in session at Chi
cago, and the Chicago directors are Civ
ing them strong moral support. For two
days a special committee has been hold
ing sessions, discussing the best policy
to pursue in getting the loan. The com
mittee is composed of General st. Clair,
of West Virginia, and Governor Massey,
of Delaware, both influential members
of the national commission; Director
General Davis and Directors Gage,
Baker and Jeffery.
All are agreed that congress ought to
make the loan, but how to get it is the
question now under discussion. Many
of the members declare that congress
should make an outright appropriation
of at least SO, 100000. They argue that
the United States has more at stake
than the city of Chicago, and should be
liberal and magnanimous. Six million
dollars have already been secured by
popular subscription, and the city of
Chicago has issued bonds for $1,000 900

CHEYENNE, Wy, Sept. 8.-Melbourne's

suddenly broke forth, contrary to all
expectations, and two hours after there
was heavy rain in accordance with
Melbourne's predictions, The rain fall
extended over radius of fifteen to

official measurement was one-half inch.

convinced that there Is something in

There is general desire, however, to
have further tests under the supervision

ton is far less, it being in this particu-
lar at the other extreme among Span
ISL American states; but even here the
Indian admixture is not only notice,
able, but sufficient to influence national
traits.
1t may not be said that the Indians
have been thoroughly Christianized by
the Roman Catholic church in the
Spanish Americas, but though many
were slaughtered the race has been
perpetuated, and has received religious
ideas in advance of the former heather
rites. The Anglo-Saxon has dispos.
sessed and destroyed the Indians with
out protest from either the Protestant
or Roman Catholic church, and the re-
ligious work in their behalf has been
shmnefully puerile compared with the
Chrstlike missionary work in behalf of

Pacific Rural Spirit: 1t is not an
uncommon thing to hear men say
"the time will come when the wool
| business will be oyerdone.r Going
back to about the year 1860, we find
| that about lbs of wool was then
used to the person. The same cal
culation now reckons lbs. to the
person. We have a population of
over G0,000,000. This number there
fore, demands 100000 lbs. of
wool. Society is not stationary, but
is increasing faster than at most any
other time in the history of our
country. Those who figure from
the past now claim that at the end
of 30 years the population of the
United States will be at least 100,
100000. Supposing that 6lbs. of
wool will be required for each per-
son they will need 60O,000,000 lbs,
or double the amount now used.
The bright prospect for the wool
grower as producer of wool is not
without other advantages. 70 meet
the increased demand for wool
there must be an increase of flOcks,
and when the fact is studied that "a
good grade will produce almost
double the amount Of wool that
native yields, it will be seen at a
glance that there will be still IA good
demand tor pure-breds. As to do
main for profitable sheep husbandry,
we are for a long time to come not
limited. Again when the amount
of wool that is produced within the
thickest settled portions of the
country referred to is calculated, 1t
will be found that the people are
producing but a few tleeces when
they should be producing tons,
With all this fine prospect before us,
let no man think for moment that
! the business is IA chance one, or one
that will take care of itself, or one
that requires no intelligence, The
man who reads and keeps himself
Informed as to fashions, which make
demand, will, if he be Informed as
to how to properly breed so as to
produce that which will be wanted,
be the one lhnt will reMn the rnMnrd.
