Tho fair 70 be successful must be .
national undertaking throughout, other
wise il is very apt To drop into a Sec
tional matter and be too much of
Chicago mutual sdmiration enterprise.
which will be most fatal 10 the worlds
fair. Representatives judiciously Sc
lected from all states shoeld be select
ed by the managernen mt and should be put
on an equal footing of Importance with
those of the state of Illinois. The num-
Der of these representatives from each
state should be- determined by the num-
Der Of inhabitants, the same as gov
ems tho election of state senators
these positions 10 be entirely honorary.
The semiannual meeting Of these
representatives sholsd take place in
Chicago for fall and thorough deliber-
alton of al matters connected with the
national fair. l regret TO see that this
fair is too much called the Chicago fair;
this appellation should be dropped and
the term national should be substituted,
especially by the newspapers when re-
ferring TO tin that way il will soon
work up a more general and public
spirit instead of an antagonistic one,
which will be the result if it is placed
in the position of . sectional under
taking.
OF course it is all important to enlist
all foreign nations, and every induce
ment possible should be made to elicit
their interest therein so as to make 1t,
as was originally intended-a worlds
fair. So far AS it is possible, the ma
tional and state governments should
contribute their support, and impart
thereby as much prestige and aid as it
is possible to give to it. All the various
states should vie with each other in the
ambition to make it proud American
success. 1t is especially important to
make the fair financially successful as
well as otherwise. Nothing will con-
tribute so much to produce general sue
cess as success financially; that covers
in all departments.
l believe that the best method to
make q grand if not magnificent result
of the worlds fair at Chicago is for the
people of the entire country all to work
together in unison for such a happy re-
suit. BY all giving long pull, strong
pull and pull all together, we will
make the American worlds fair (al-
though held at Chicago) brilliant sue
cess, not even second to the French ex-
position.

The exhibition will not be national

y n DE YoUy0 prscUssEs THE ATTITUDE or
xraoPrAx NATIONS TOWARD TIE FAIR
In my opinion there isn't any ques-
ton about the success Of the worlds
fair. Interest Will increase as the
buildings begin TO be erected and when
the enormous scope IF the exposition Is
developed by ocular demonstration.
Ny intimate knowledge Of the
forthcoming exposition and my expert
ence at the Paris exposition Of 1899,
which up 70 that time was the most sue
cessful one that the world had ever
witnessed. convince me that this ex-
position win excel il In every particular.
First Of all. the main buildings of the
exposition viii bc larger. The aggre-
gate frontage win be placed In line
nearly two miles; there viii not be less
than two hundred buildings on the
ground. and then a wonderful layout Of
canals, fountains and basins which
mingle and pass through and around all
of the main buildings on the ground,
giving a waterway of nearly six miles.
on which will be placed thousands Of
boats. showing the popularity of all the

all OF which will b. manned by men.
who. for a consideration, will carry
visitors by water from one building to
another
Second. Financially the exposition
starts out with cash on hand Of 30 per
cent. more than the total expenditures
of the Paris exposition. The total cx-
penditures of the Paris exposition were
$500. 900 This included the money
raised By an advanced sale Of the total
admission recsipts. Now our great ex-
position startsin with a cash appropria-
from the city OF Chicago of SIC. 900. 600.
81 500. 600 from the national govern
rnent. 81. soc. 900 already appropriated
by the variops states, and s.. 400. 600.

Rabies and sapphircs In All the Dig gingS
How They Are Mined.
The gem mines of Siam are at Krung,
Krat and Phailin. points or districts de-
pendent on the seaport of Chantabun.
They are shortly to be leased; Dat at
present the only condition required for
entering the mines is the payment Of
a small fee to the head man Of the dis
trict.
The digger's first object is TO discover
a layer OF soft, yS.lowish sand, in which
both rubies and sapphires are deposited
This stratum lies at depths varying
from few inches 70 twenty feet, on a
bed Of subsoil in which no precious
stones are found. A pit is dug, and the
soil removed is taken To a neighboring
canal or stream, where it is mixed with
water and passed through an ordinary
hand-sicvc. In his search for this pc
culiar alluvial deposit, which is gener-
ally free from any admixture of clsyey
earth. the digger has often to penetrate
into the jungle that grows thickly
around, and combines the work Of
clearing with the occupation of gem
digger.
No sapphire has yet been extracted Of
higher value than about fourteen hun
dred dollars, or ruby of higher price
than forty-eight hundred dollars. No
artificial or mechanical processes for
washing the soil have so far been in
troiuced.
Rubies and sapphires are found at all
the diggings, often deposited side by
side in the same layer or stratum of
sand. The rubies are usually of a dull.
light-red hue. The sapphire IS of q
dark. dull blue. without any Of the
sillzen gloss distinctive Of the Burmsh
and Ceylon stones

ALEXANDRIA.
A WARD QUESTION.


The residents Of the lower wards Of the city,
the first and second wards, have, many of them
say, just cause of complaint in the fact that
of late years nearly all the street and sewer
improvements have been made in the upper
wards. and while the value of real
estate in the upper wards has constantly in
creased that of the lower wards has In
most cases either stood still or decreased
The third ward, which has had the larger
far, the most prosperous of the wards. Al
though it has in the city council a representa-
ton fractional less in number than that of
any other ward it has been the recipient of
larger appropriations. The advance of values in
the third ward has, however, evidently been
owing to the fact that it is the northwest ward
and is more a suburb of Washington than any
other portion OF this city, being the entrepot
Of the Washington and Alexandria railroad,
where Alexandria people doing business in
Washington naturally locate. Movements for
more extended improvements in the lower
wards are now being considered.
NOTES.
Among the suits recently instituted in the
Alexandria county court is one in relation to
a tract of "glebe' land on which the late
Caleb Cushing held a mortgage. Among the
parties to the suit are H. W. Garnett, Austin
Herr. c. C. Duncanson, John Keyworth, NJ F.
Morris, j. p. Willett and others of Washington.
The Mount Vernon Mutual Aid Society has
been organized here and has become incorpor-
ated with Il. l.. Cook as president and John l..
Hammond as secretary. Mr.. John Critcher is
its agent.
A hearing in chambers by Judge Keith in the
Shipman-Fletcher case took place here yester-
day and was attended by a number of WASH
ingtonians.

Mr.. Chas. Harding, took place from 800 N.

A Colored Domestic Who Blew Out the

has resided here a short time at the house Of
her uncle. No. Is Mccullough street, and yester-
day she found employment as q domestic at
No. Is X street northwest. Before retiring
for the night the girl was asked if she
understood how to extinguish the gas,
and she replied in the affirmative. As
she seemed to understand all about the
gas fixtures no further attention was paid to
her until this morning, when the smell Of gas
aroused the suspicious Of her employers, and
upon going to the room it was ascertained that
Mary had blown out the gas and had died dur
ing the night. The coroner was notified. To-
day her body was turned over to her relatives,
and she will probably be buried at the home OF
her parents in the country.

Fined for Assaultiur His Father.

A young man named Albert Eichelberger
stood before the Police Court today accused Of
having assaulted his father. The latter, when
called, told the judge that his son was good
boy when he was sober, but when under the
influence Of hquSf he was quarrelsome and in
clined to fight. He charged that the boy as
saulted him when he was asleep, and the nature
of the assault was such that the court imposed
. fine Of SIS or sixty days on the son.
