WORLDS FAIR LETTER.

Probably nothing in the management of the Columbian Exposition will be more heartily endorsed by the citizen and stranger than the department of Public Comfort. Only recently organ ized, 1t is hard at work. Its chief is already making a list of real estate owners, householders and landlords in the city and suburbs who expect to fur nish lodgings to visitors. Such public and private providers are urged to fur nish full report of the accommoda- tions which they are able to offer, giv- ing prices. These reports are to be listed and will be safeguard and a convenience to all parties concerned. This is, of course, only one of the plans of this bureau which is acting under the authority and control of the Ways and Means Committee of the Exposi- ton Board. May it fourish

THE action of the Democratic con- yention of Coconino. in trading the candidates of the people. fer those named by the bosses. has created a great deal of dissatisfaction among the better class of democrats, and who de- cline to be brought into the ranks at the crack of the whip in the hands of a would-be leader and dictator.

You Democrats.

For twelve years you have been con. demning the characterization of silver, and have promised that the moment you hada majority in congress you would thus put yourselves on record as favoring the free coinage of silver into full legal tender money,
 You have iu all parts of the country declared that the act of 1873 demonet- izing silver was the greatest crime of the age.
 Now look at your record and see for yourselves, as others see. what con temptable liars you are.
 You had the last congress by an inn mense majority, and you defeated the bill calling for the remonetization of silver.
 Meanwhile tho republican senate passed the free coinage bill, to make silver legal tender, and but for the ac- ton of you lying democrats in the house, the bill would ere now have become a law.
 It is because you are such dirty, cowardly. contemptable liars, lick-spit- ties and dough-faces that the people are refusing longer to vote for your candidates or to believe your promises.
 Look at your record and confess that your party is party of liars, and that your leaders are robbers in whom no confidence can be placed.
 Sooner death than vote for any of you again.-Pomeroy's Advance

NIishans of a Rrldegroom.

One of the fashionable weddings
witnessed reversal of the usual
order of things. Instead of the brides
usual trepidation the bridegroom
elect, while essaying to assist IN the
decorations during the early part of
the day. was so overcome with nerv-
business that by noon physician was
summoned and remained for some
time with the young fellow before
the remedies applied had the slight
est effect. According to the doctors
orders, he was then put to bed, the
room darkened and strict orders Civ
en- that no one should be allowed to
enter until the time arrived when it
would be necessary to dress for the
ceremony. Should these orders be
disregarded, the doctor stated that
the prospective bridegroom would
not only be unable to go through the
ordeal of the ceremony and reception.
but would be unable even to stand up.

4 Clever Parrot.

An aunt of mine was paying us Il
visit, and noticing that Polly had
splashed his bath water over a win
dow near which he happened to be,
said in a severe tone: Look what a
mess you've made, you dirty bird.
I've a good a mind to throw you out
Of the window" to which the culprit
replied in the most contrite tone,
Poor Polly, scratch Polly" But a
moment afterward, as the lady and
left the rooms together, he Missed
out in the most vindictive tones i'm
aginable, You wretch. My aunt
returned and asked him, What's
that you said"
Poor Polly, poor Polly" came the
reply humbly and beseechingly from
this mendacious rd.-Cor. st. Louis

,Ir. habhnro aud His Mother.

Mr.. Babbage was always reticent
about his eark life, solnuch so that
an impression got about that he was
of humble birth. This was not the
case. He was born in 17924at Tones,
in a good old ninsion insthe town:
Twenty years ago it was known as
1.-THE Castle Inn" and perhaps it Is
still so called. His father, well to
do, banker, was nicknamed by his
townsfolk "OlG Five Per Cents, he
talked so constantly about money
matters. The eminent nathema-
ticians mother lived to great age,
and have heard from those who re-
membered earlier times that she was
occasionally to be seen at the bril-
liant receptions Babbage used to give
in the forties in this same dreary,
ghost haunted room where we then
sat. with its faded hangings and tar
nished gliding In the old days 1t
was the sons greatest pleasure to
bring up his most distinguished
guests to be introduced to his mother,
the homely old lady seated on the
stiff backed sofa, the place of honor.

pre.ents for Mt. GIadstonc.

Some Of the golden wedding pres
ents in Hawarden castle are curious.
There are half dozen golden m,nia-
ture axes, with various inscriptions
on the blades. One AK in silver,
made to serve as n pencil case,
caught my fancy. 1t was a present
from the Princess of Wales. and had
on the blade the facetious observa-
ton, For axing questions. There
is a close intimacy between her royal
highness and Mr.. Gladstone.
There are some wonderful presents
of iewelry from the shah of Persia
and others. On prominent table
rests a large solid gold double ink
stand from the Prince of Wales, but
perhaps the little gold model of an
afternoon tea service from n few
workingmen is testimony as strong
of a desire that this political king
may 'live for ever
Mr.. Drew says that the illumina-
ton and labor put into the addresses
which Mr.. Gladstone has had in his
life. and which are now scattered all
over Hawarden castle, must repre-

Carroe, Of Brick on Boats.

Cargoes of brick have to be slowed
in the most careful manner, or else
the vessels carrying them will foun-
der in the mildest weather, owing to
the strong tendency of the brick to
absorb the water eau 1 by the leak
age which necessarily occurs on all
wooden vessels. The brick will alb
sorb the water as fast as it runs in
from an ordinary leak, and the in
creased weight of the brick causes
the vessel to settle until she makes
the final plunge, and the crew are
frequently at a loss to know the
cause. To new shoals, defective work
in the vessels construction and other
causes are attributed the disasters. -

THE FAvoRITEs.

Why Is sweet Phyllis. far and wide.
The favorite OF the town?
Why does she meet, on every side,
A smile and not frown?
Wis not that this fair maid the most
OF wealth or fame possesses.
But this-that she can letters post
And not read the addresses.
Why is this plain Priscilla sought
BY many ardent lovers,
Who hitherto have not been caught
BY charm so far above hers!
sTis not her eyes-a common brown,
Albeit, bright and sunny
But not another girl in town
So careful is OF money.
And every one likes Phoebe, though
She wears nor silk nor satin.
And all her cultured lovers know
She knows nor Greek no- Latin.
But though sosinp!e and demurc,
'Tis ne'ertLeless conceded.
That though she's weak in literature
The bread she baScs is splendid.
Another maiden much admired
Is Ruth, the farmers daughter.
And men by other girls desired
In marriage oft have sought her,
For though they like 30 flirt with Kate,
Her prettier, wittier neighbor,
They much prefer one for mate
Well used 10 honest labor.

ARTIFICIAL PRODUCTION OF LIFE.
VIII the Chemist Ever BE Able to Do
What Nature Has Donee

VIII the Chemist Ever BE Able to Dc
What Nature Has Done:
Will chemistry ever be able to pro
duce living albumen capable of &C
lively performing the part OF a
leaven, and endowed with sufficient
instability to go through all tho
notifications that permit the COM
bustions, splittings and demolitons
that lead to assassination and OK
cretion! II seems to me that we are
permitted to hope for it. But with
in what limits will this power of the
chemist be included.
Will he ever be able to make liv-
ing beingl Will he succeed in max
ing even a simple cell, a grain of
starch, a muscular fiber, or any
shapely and differentiated element.
In order to answer these questions
we mSist dissipate some confusion
and present all the elements of the
problem.
To ask the chemist to make direct
" a differentiated being, or even
muscular fiber, nervous cell, a
grain of starch, is to ask him to do
what nature herself has pH1bably
never been able to do, and what it is
probably impossible to realize. Can
one in good faith exact so muchf Is
it not enough 70 ask the chemist to
be aB pofaerful as nature' The ques-
don is then reduced to, Will the
chemist be able to do what nature
has done Let us see what. nature
has done, looking from the. evolu-
tionisSs point of view s3y
II the living form of matter was
eyef born by virtue of the action of
natural forces, the event must have
taken place in medium the con-
ditions of which differed from the
4xisting conditions of our globe, for
such formation of natural matter
does not seem TO be realized among
us. Under these special conditions
of the medium living matter must
have appeared in the most simple,
the most rudimentary condition, for
beginnings are always humble and
little differentiated.
We can conceive nothing Of this
kind more simple than droplets,
more or less minute, of a substance
comparable with albumen or pro
toplasm-that is, rent of vital ex-
changes to be established within 1t.

snnrreon and the Madman.

Years ago the great preacher lay
i'll in the Hotel des Anglais at Men
tone, but one day he insisted that his
devoted attendants go out for little
exercise. Hardly had they disap-
peared when a mailman, who had
eluded the vigilance of his keepers,
rushed in and said, Il want you to
save my soul" With great presence
of mind the sufferer bade the poor
fellow kneel down by the side of the
bed. and prayed for him as best he
could under the circumstances.
Mr.. Spurgeon then told the man to
go away and return in half an hour.
Providentially, says the narrator, he
obeyed, and as soon as he was gone
the doctor and servants were sum
moned, but they were not able to
overtake the mailman before he had
stabbed some one in the street.
