The Proper Date to Open tho Worlds Fair.
Some Condolences.
NEw YoRK, August John Boyd
Thatcher, commissioner from New York
state to the Worlds Columbian exposi-
ton, said tonight that he thought a
tribute might be appropriately paid to
the memory of Americas yespucius by
opening the exposition on the 9th day
OF May, 1898. The law now provides
that tho buildings Of the exposition
shall be formally dedicated on the 2lst
day Of October, 1892, thus commem-
Grating the discovery OF the new world
by Columbus on the exact occurrence
OF its four hundredth anniversary. This
day, October q, may be called the
birthday Of America.
On the 9th day OF May, in the year
1907, there was printed a little book in
st. Die Lorraine, which first suggested
that the newly discovered quarta pars
orbis should be given the name Of Amer
ica, and thereupon deliberately and
formally baptized the fourth party Of
the world "America," alter the Floren-
tine dlscoverer, Americus Vespucius.
This book was printed on the 7th Of the
Kalends OF May, 1907, april 25), which
is equivalent to the 9th day OF May. as
corrected by the Gregorian calendar.
This day, the 9th Of May, is the chris
ening or baptismal day Of America.
Historical research has acquitted
Amerieus Yespucius of the charge OF
himself giving his name to the new
world.
The best historians Of to-day believe
in the voyage which Americus Nespu-
cius claimed TO have made in 1897 when
he discovered the continent, thus justi-
lying somewhat II not entirely, the
name Which the st Die book bestowed
uponit.
Congress does not fix any exact date
for the opening of the Exposition. II
is simply provided that the Exposition
shall be open to visitors not later than
the first day Of May" Congress at the
December session can provide for this
opening. Tho fifth day Of May also
falls on Friday, which is another singu-
lar coincidence, as it was Friday Column
bus set sail from Palos, Friday he first
cav tho land Of the new world, Friday
he first reached Palos on his return and
as the 400 anniversary Of the discovery
falls on Friday.
