II the half Of what is promised Is de.
veloped by the electrical department of
the, worlds fair the Columbian exposi-
ton will be recognized by later genera
lions rs the first great exposition OF the
new science that has already done SO
much, and promises SO much more for
the industrial world. A revelation is
promised even to those who attribute
almost miraculous powersto this force.
The artistic possibilities of electric
ity, says the Sioux City Journal, will be
demonstrated by the wonderful lxaleido-
scopic scene that the grounds will pre-
sent at night. A hundred thousand
incahdescent lamps, ten Thousand arc
lights, electric. fountains and great
electric reflectuB that, turning their
brilliant rays toward the zenith, will
drive the stars from sight, will be some
of the general electrical features.
Then the mechanical exhibit will be
collection Of wonders. The electrical
building is to be one of the finest of che
exposition. Everything Imaginable in
the way of applications of electricity
wAl be seen, from railway down to a
dish washing machine. tits said shat
some entirely. new and wonderful In
ventions will be seen at the fair for the
first time.
It is proper that the great new SCI
ence should be made a grand feature OF
the American festival, forit is to large
extent an American sciepce. It was an
American who first proved that the
force of lightning was the same as the
chemical forceof electricity, and whose
Investigations gave the first practical
start to the efforts to deal with the new
force. 1t was an American. who gave
to the world the electric telegraph; an
American discovered the principle of
the electromagnetic and demonstrated
its practicsl uses; an American laid the
Hrst ocean cable; Americans developed
the telephone and electric light and
made them economically practicable;
the electric fRotor in practical form is
an American development; and not to
mention n legion Of Americans who are
engaged in solri1g electrical problems,
the greatest electrician of the world,
Thomas A, Edison, is an American.
Electricity Is practical if it is any
thing, and its development along prac.
teal lines is largely due to the efforts
of Americans If the American expo
sition can be made to emphasize these
facts, If it shall be remembered rs
marking an era in the history of Ameri-
cah science that is one of thegrcutest of
sciences, it will have done good work.

TREES FOR THE WORLDS FAIR.

Wher" They AFRO rrocursd--A Ouesr Pro.
ceSsion from Lnko View.
Every night queer procession moves
down Dearborn avenue. This process
sion consists OF number Of timber
wagons loaded with great trees. These
trees have been moving down Dearborn
avenue, across the river. and along the
South side bou-eVards for number Of
weeks, All have one objective point
the worlds fair grounds. 1
, To be sure, says the Chicago Tribune,
there are trees on the South side, but
they could not be spared to dec rate
the fair grounds. South "i'..' SEEDS
do not furnish a respectable stock,
either. The contemplated wooded island
needed many trees, and it was found
thai Lake View residents were willing
to dispose Of such objects at mere
song-would give them to the worlds
fair people even for nothing If they
would do the digging. Real estate
''city lots'--i3, perhaps more valuable
without timber than with il. Besides,
1t is On obvious advantage when one
purchases lot near Evanston to find
all trees removed and q cellar we'll
started,
So, with this liberal offor of the real
estate owners, the fair people began
the transportation Of trees, q distance
of over dozen miles. The trees are
big ones, and when yanked out Of the
;tronnd their roots are swatbed in straw
nnd begging. Long after respectable
North side residents have retired.--after
The vehicles that frequent Dearborn
avenue have boon locked behind stable
doors-the trees begin to move on their
long journey,
They start in ths neighborhood Of
Buena Park. In the center Of the long,
low wagon rests the roots Of u tree, some
times reaching high III the air. The
tree inclines on the heavy tail.board OF
the wagon, but the angle Is not sufficient
to prevent large part of the foliage
from sweeping the street. AS the
wagons, one by one, pass over the street
each one leaves behind swath OF clean.

TIE smoNest Is the best
in pills, other things being equal.
But, with DR.. Pieroe's Pleasant Pei
lets, nothing else is equal. They're
the best, not only because they're
the smallest, and the easiest to take
but because they do more good.
They cleanse and regulate the liver,
stomach and bowels in q way the
huge, old fashioned pill doesn't
dream of. Think Of trying to regu-
late the system with the ordinary pill.
It's only good for upsetting it.
These are mild and gentle-but
thorough and effective, no pain-no
gripping. One little pellet for laxa-
tive three for cathartic. The
best Liver Pill known. Sick Head
ache, Bilious Headache, Constipa-
tion, Indigestion, Bilious Attacks
and all arrangements of the liver,
stomach and bowels are prevented,
relieved and cured.
Put up IN sealed vials-a perfect
vest-pocket remedy, always conven-
lent, fresh and reliable.
They're the cheapest pill you can
buy for they're guaranteed to give
satisfaction, or your money is re.
turned. It's a plan peculiar to DR..
Pierce's medicines.
You pay only for the good you
get. Can you ask more?

MashonaIa,,tl.

Mt. =. K. Maund, one Of the British
pioneer settlers OF Mashonaland, de-
clares that II this rich region had been
accessible to Americans they would long
ere this have bought or fought their
way to q railroad from the coast to it.
He reproached Englishmen with their
slowness and apathy in regard to it.
In truth. Mashonaland, Just north Of
the Transvaal, in southeast Africa,
promises to be the California Of the dark
continent. Mr.. Maund believes it Is
destined to be one Of England's greatest
possessions. It is aboundingly rich in
gold. and Of course that point Of view
obscures every other at present. But
we are told also that on its great sweep
Of tablelands white men can live Is
comfortably as at home, that it is well
watered and covered with rich pasture
grounds as well as farming lands. Boer
farmers understand it's advantages 90
we'll that they begin to desert the Trans
vaal for the richer agricultural prospects
Of Mashonaland.
+ Transportation is difficult thither at
present and will be until the 400 miles
Of railway from the coast is finished.
The capital of the new country is Fort
Salisbury. Mashonaland belongs to the
British South Africa company, which is
ready to make advantageous terms with
any one wanting to buy either corner
lots or quarter sections For man who
wants to make his fortune quickly there
seems no finer region than Mashonaland.
