The only way in which we can account
for the scarcity Of local news this week is
that everyone attended the Worlds Fair
last week and consequently had no time
to do anything that could be seized upon
and made an item OF news. We are, there
fore, forced to the conclusion that the
items which, in the ordinary course OF
events, would have been safely secured
and duly presented in this column, are
largely contained in this one short note Of
the fair.
