WORLDS FAIR BUILDINGS.
THREE PLANNED BY NEw-YoRKERs.

TIE ADMIRABLE WORK OF RICHARD N. HUNT
GEORGE Il. POST AND CHARLES +. M'KIN.
The managers Of the Worlds Columbian EXpo-
stion in their desire to give it as National
character as possible, at first decided to have the
,lars for all the buildings drawn by architects
who lived in other parts of the United States than
chicago This resolution naturally caused IA
,rcat outcry in the city where the Fair is 10 he
held 1t was vigorously urged that the directors
had overstepped the bounds Of reason and Justice
in their anxiety to avoid making the Fair merely
local in its nature. Chicago one of the great
centres of population as well the seat Of the
enterprise and her people felt hurt that OF
the buildings should be planned by home talent.
Before long the Board Of Directors saw the
force of this objection and arranged to distribute
part of the work among Chicago architects. The
big buildings around the great central plaza, how
ever were assigned TO from other cities.
The large number of structucrs needed left lot
for the home architects TO do, every one
is pleased.
ARCHITECTS FROM NETWORK.
Three of the most important halls fell 10 the
lot of architects of this city. Richard NJ. Hunt
designed the Administration Building, Charles

OFFICES FOR VARIOUS DEPARTMENTS.
The corner pavions are four stories in height
and are fitted up with Offices for the DircctorIi
cral and Others. In one pavilion the ground
floor is TO be used by the police and fire depart
mcnts. and will have prison cells On the same
floor. in another pavilion is the medical service,
includin. an ambulance corps, a physician and a
druggist, the foreign department and the Informal
ton bureau: in another pavilion postoiiice and
a bank, and in the fourth the offices of Public
Comfort and restaurant. In the upper stories
are the board and committee rooms and the offices
of the Director General the Department of Pub
Lefty and Promotion, and the United States
Columbian Commission.
II NAV he added that work on the building is
already pretty we'll advanced. The greatest diff
Guilty was in drawing the plans. as the temporary
character Of the structure made the task of the
architect one full of hard problems The founda-
ton is all laid, however, and all the window and
door frames have been delivered. Several weeks
ago 100, 900 feet of lumber had been put in place
and $3.50 pounds of iron were in position Inc
framing for the first story was nearly finished the
columns of that story and the basement being

Captain De LANAI is cutting a
wide swath in Washington. He
recently gave a banquet to some of
the upper ten" which cost $4,000,
and he is now numbered among
the "four hundred" at Washington,
He was recently on the highway of
distinction and honor as the
Worlds fair commissioner from
Idaho, but coming to where the
road forks, he took the wrong path,
and pursued the one which leads to
vanity and frivolty, if not worse.
He is now the shattered idol of
Idaho, and will have uphill work
to retrieve his fallen state. He has
made himself mark for society
small talk, and is even a subject of
newspaper gossip, as shown by a
snob sheet in Washington, entitled
Town Topics, which beslobbers
him in this manner:
Who will succeed in carrying of
the De Lamar matrimonial prize,
valued, believe, at some 100000!
The daughters of the cabinet minis
tiers stand a good chance, am told,
for the Idaho miner has political
aspirations, aud has nvowed his in
tention of backing his wealth by
marrying into high oilicialdom. In
the meantime, Mr.. De Lamar is
lavishly entertaining everybody
and has in consequence, been
elected to fill the post Of society's
darling. Tho gentleman claims to
be Of French extraction, and his
name certainly supports his theory,
though heard jealous rival de-
clare the other day that he was as
Dutch as krout," and appearances
are, again, much in favor of the
rivals assertion. One thing, how
ever, remains-that the Idaho
CrGsus is thoroughly good SORT
of a fellow, and wide awake enough
to achieve, not only Washington
popularity, but things much moro
difficult to accomplish.

HANG HIM.
A PlucLy Do Lamar Woman Gets Away With q
Would.bo Robcer.

De Lamar Nugget.
At 3 o'clock last Wednesday
while Mrs. Morgan, who lives at
the Garfield mine, was hanging out
some washing, she saw a strange
man near the house, no one but her
and her two children being at home.
She went into the house and the
man followed, when she discovered
that he had a mask on. He de-
manded something to eat, which
she refused to give him, asking him
what he meant by wearing mask.
He made motion as if to pull
pistol out of his hip pocket, and
said "throw up your hands," In
stead of doing so she grabbed an
axe which happened to be standing
by the wood box, and struck at
him, hitting him on the knee, but
rot hurting him badly. He caught
her by the arm, and in a struggle
which ensued, a wash tub full of
suds and clothes was upset. He
slipped on the floor and fell and she
shouted to an imaginary woman in
the other room to bring a gun and
gave the villain a kick which
made him grunt and let go his hold
other arm. He then jumped to his
feet, hit her a blow which left a
lump on the side of her head, then
ran. Her two little children were
in an adjoining room.
She can only describe the man
80 far as to note that he wore a
long overcoat which was split up
in the back, and that he was a
short heavy set man. After her
plucky fight, her nerves were so
badly unstrung that she only no.
ticed that he followed the trail
down the mountain toward Jones'
mill. He took off his overcoat
after leaving the house and was
running when last she noticed him.
This is the first instance of attempt.
ed robbery ever occurring in the
camp, and l am sorry there is so
little chance Of finding the scound.
rel. I only weigh $50 pounds, but
would prove heavy weight pulling
rope over limb if the rascal's
neck was in moose at the Other
end. Hurrah for the plucky
woman!

ACCURACY OF NEWSPAPERS.

A singular point to me is the
skepticisn which exists in the
minds OF many rs in the accuracy
EMPLOYED 10y the literary worker.
Now, will venture the assertion
that the conscientious literary man
or woman of today is as painstak-
ing in securing the information
which he embodies in his article,
story or novel as is either the law
yer in preparing his brief or the
minister in preparing his sermon,
with the advantage very often in
favor of the author. The hidden
power which lies behind many
statement embodied in the modern
newspaper or magazine article is
unrecognized and unknown by one
tenth of the public today. l hav,
repeatedly marveled at the infinite
pains taken by authors in verifying
certain incident, illustration or
statistical figure employed in their
work. The writer of repute is far
more conscientious in this respect
than is credited. There is no rule
more infexible in the modern
editorial office than is that
which exacts accuracy, and no rule
lis so little violated. No writer
would dare make such an assertion
as that which I heard in a promi-
nent New York pulpit some time
ago, when a ministerial friend of
mine used as an illustration the
figure of Oliver Cromwell singing
the doxology as he led his army to
victory, when the fact is that
Bishop Ken never wrote the famous
lines until Cromwell had been
dead number of years. And yet
it was this same clergymen who,
two or three weeks ago, asked me
whether certain figures which I had
published in regard to the sale of
the modern novel were really au-
thentic," remarking, after my ex-
PLANTATION, that he thought it was
'only newspaper story" This
readiness of referring to articles
which some people read in the
newspapers as "a newspaper story
is always an exhibition of ignorance
1t would be far better if all other
agencies Of public education were
as thorough in their work as is the
newspaper of today. The fact
must never be overlooked that the
newspaper more often corrects
errors than makes them. No jour
nal and no writer is infallible; mis-
takes are often unavoidable, but
there is no profession in the world
today which has stronger regard
for accuracy than the profession o.
letters-and no profession which
gets so little credit for it.

AT LEICESTER.
one Hundred and Forty Mounted
EEen Meet Crawford

LEICESTER, y. c., Oct. 19.-This has
been a great day for the solid Democracy
of Leicester township. The Oldest men
OF this ncighborhood say that they haye
never known such crowd of people
present rs greeted Crawford here this
morning.
Three miles out Of the town one hun
dred and forty one mounted Democrats,
by actual count met Crawford with
flags and shouts, and escorted him to
the town. Such staunch Democrats as
Uncle Pleas Israel, DR.. J. NJ, Stevens, J.
Frank Wells and other leading Democrats
headed the procession.
Forty-One mounted men, by actual
count, met Mai. Rollins, who was to do
the speaking for pritchard.
Brother Brown did not put in an ap-
pcarance today, and Crawford and Rol-
Inns had great time. Maj Rollins led
off, and declared that the people
OF the United States did not pay
one cent tax toward the support of
the federal government. This is a
fair sample of all the statements
made by the Major, who really deals in
fewer facts, if possible, than Pritchard.
Crawford literally tore the statements
OF Rollins to shreds.
There is no doubt about Leicester
township giving an increased Demo-
cratic vo;c over two wears ago on the
Sth day OF November.
Every Democrat i'll this township
seems to be thoroughly alive AID hard
at work, and they arc pushing the fight
along all lines OF work !, Z. X.

MACVEAGH IN NEW YORK.
ae TaII:s FOintedIy On the Force
Bill Last Night.

NEW YoHT, October 2O.-Coopcr
Union was crowded last night with
people anxious to hear Waync
MacNeagh. The meeting was held un-
der the auspices Of the Democratic club
of New York City.
On the force bill Mr. MacVcagh said
"Thc bill would provide that the Circuit
court judges of the United States, only
eighteen in number, should take away
from the people the right of conduct
ing their own elections. 1t
is not only that such meas
ure involves vast expense to
the tax payers; but it is that it de-
stroys at one fell blow the very princi-
pie on which we must rely if we are to
continue to be Republic; that is, trust
ing the people in their different election
districts to conduct their own elections,
and, ii there is not sufficient virtue to be
found there, it is not likely to be found
i'll the appointees of a political party,
whether held i'll judicial office, or any
other.
"And the deadly blow thus dealt at
the popular confidence in our national
Judiciary would result in irremediabe
injury. All respect for the elections
would he DESTROYED all confidence in the
pretended results reached at the polls
would disappear, and the Presidential
election must result in a very brief time
in the resort to force by one party or the
other, believing itself to have been de
iraudGd Of its rights"
