THE PRESS.

Soul of the world.l ie Press! the Press.
What wonders hast thou wrought!
Thou rainbow realm of mental bliss:
Thou starry sky of thought!
As dew unto the thirsty flowers:
AS the blessed light of heaven:
And widely as the summer showers,
Thy silent aid is given.
Yet canst thou flame upon the earth
Like the dread volcanoes glow;
And tyrants tremble at thy birth
AS at an earthquakes throe.
Thy nod can lop the proudest head;
The world thy scepter owns;
The path thou dost to glory tread,
The path is paved with thrones.
Yet thou art gentle as the breeze
The latest breath of day,
But chainless as the mighty seas,
In thy resistless sway.
at thy command the seals were broke
That bound the mighty deep,
And liberty and truth awoke
From centuries of sleep.
Then first on every sinful shore,
That man in darkness trod,
Thy bright and speeding pinions bore
The beacon word of God.
The sage's lamp, the muses. Tyre,
Thou brought'st DER oceans foam:
The steller light of vestal fire.
The eloquence of Rome.
Thou flag of truth thy folds have
streamed
Ger many field of blood.
And DER the wreck of empires cleaned
Like the rainbow DER the flood;
The patriots eye still turns to thee,
And halls thee from afar,
AS the wanderer of the trackless sea
Hath hailed his guiding star.
While on the hearth-stone of the hall.
And to the cottage hearth,
Thou bring'st daily festiva.
OF nameless, priceless worth.
Thou lightest up the pallid cheek
Of the deserted poor,
And to the captive, worn and weak,
Openest the prison door.
Oh! ever in thy columns bright,
Let the truth and virtue blend!
Be ever, ever in the right!
Be it ever labor's friend.
His strong and honest arm shall be
Thy bulwark in distress;
God bless the land of liberty!
God save our countr's press!

OUTcASTS FROM SOCIETY.

Queer People That Live on the Rivers o
China.
The origin of the Chinese river
population is shrOuded in mystery.
According to one version it originated
from people who were convicted of
treason, and who were declared un-
worthy Of residence on terra flrma.
The people that live on the Canton
river are said to be descendants of a
certain Lu-Tsun, who was chief of a
tribe and lived in the village of
Namku, on the island of Homan,
1000 years before our era. Lu-Tsun
was said to have been general in
the Chinese army, and to have re-
belled after acquiring power and
authority. After many combats with
the imperial troops he conquered
Canton. where he maintained him.
self as an absolute ruler for 30 years.
After his death his children were
prosecuted, and all Of his descendants
were considered accursed and soon
compelled to take refuge on river
boats.
Under the Yang dynasty the river
people were prosecuted and had to
pay a per capita tax. During the
reign of Hunguins, the founder of
the Ming dynasty, all boatmen be-
tween the ages Of Is and As years of
age were forced to enter the army.
The Emperor Jungtshin, on the con-
trary, took a great interest in the
river population, and issued procIa-
nation in their favor in 1870, grant
ing them protection in every respect.
In spite Of this proclamation, how
ever, the river folk were, and are
still, looked upon as pariahs. They
are prohibited from .intermarrying
with the people living on land, and
their sons are excluded from literary
examinations. Their wives are con-
temptuously called water birds" by
landsmen, although they greatly ex-
Gel the spouses and daughters Of the
latter in beauty.

Worlds Fair Board,

Secretary Smith, of the worlds fair
board, reports that he has received let
tiers from 1O1 members elect Of the leg
islature regarding their position on an
appropriation being made by the state.
OF these letters, twenty-sev are from
senator's, twenty-six of whom are favor
able and one is undecided. Sixty-four
members of the house are favorable, six
are undecided and three opposed.
These figures, together with the fact
that the governor heartily favors the
appropriation, show that the state will
undoubtedly take charge of the Kansas
display at the worlds fair. The board,
however, will not go out of business
yet. The work will be prosecuted
with vigor, and if by any chance the
state should not take hold of the scheme
the state will be represented just the
same.
The board made an appropriation of
$4,000, which nearly completes the pay
ments on the state building in jackson
park.
The board passed resolution on the

State Fair.

After several years experience in the
matter, the State Fair association has
decided that the plan of carrying on an
enterprise Of such magnitude as the
state fair under the direction OF a large
number of individuals acting as board
of directors is not the best one. They
have therefore decided to secure the
services Of L. NJ. Crawford and charge
him with the duty of taking complete
control Of the fair. 1t will fall to Mr.
Crawford's part to not only direct the
policy OF the fair but to attend to all of
the details Of its management.
The scheme was first preached at the
regular annual meeting OF the board Of
directors two weeks ago, but was not
finally decided upon until some time
later. The plan Of focusing the con-
