As the matter now stands, the
Worlds Fair must be closed on Sun
day, Congress having voted Two and a
half millions of dollars contingent on
Sunday c,O-ing. This was right and
proper; it would be uniting that
such fair, representative OF new
world progress in art, science and
mechanical and agricultural industry,
should fail to also represent TIL
sentiment of Sabbath keep
ing. Remember the Sabbath day
to keep it holy should be as strong
a sentiment in the American
breast as individual liberty itself.
1t has teen suggested, however, by
some, that instead OF an absolute
closing that all the machinery and
other apartments requiring work be
closed, but that religious and choral
and other musical entertainments be
held in the large buildings and audi
forums. This would give people q
chance to stroll through the Iarks
and through the halls viewing the
painting and sculpture and other
works OF art aud mechanical skill,

West VIRGINIA Horse FanoIers.

Hon. John II. McGraw has established
a stock farm at the new town Of Mar
lingtOn, Pocahontas county in which
Mr. Camden, Capt. Whitescarver, Mr..
Durbin, Mr.. McGraw and others are in
terested in building. Last summer Pat
Marley had one or two Of McGraw's
horses here, but he sent them down to
Warrington. Mr.. McGraw has quite
fine stable of horses there
now and is giving it considerable
attention. Speaking Of horsemen, ]. N.
Camden, Jr., is rapidly making his place
at Versailles, KY, one of the most nota-
BILE stock farms in all Kentucky. He is
giving his special attention to raising
thoroughbreds and not so much to
standardbreds. Mr.. Camden has been
a resident of Kentucky only short
time, but he is acquiring reputation
as horse-breeder, and his elegant home
and farms are equal to the finest in the
Blue Grass State.

= Kidnapped Boy Returned.

POUND RIDGE, n. Y, February g.
Eight-year-old Ward Waterbury, who was
kidnapped from the vicinity Of the school
house near Long Ridge Conn, Monday
afternoon, and for whom his parents ana
the entire neighborhood have been search
ing far and near ever since, was brought
homo at 3 O'Clock this morning by Jonn
Close, Of Stanwich, Conn.
MIR. Waterbury was home, having but
lust returned from his trip TO Miller
Bridge, where he had been summoned By
the letter signed ''River Boys" making an
appointment there with him. He had gone
alone to the spot in accordance with the de-
mands of the letter. After remaining there
until after 10 80 this morning be came to
conclusion that the the kidnappers had
been frightened away and did not come,
Then he drove homeward.
The boy told how he had been approach
ed by two tall, plainly dressed men about
4 O'Clock Monday afternoon, as he was play
ing near the school house. They asked
him 70 show them the way TO nearby
place and he consented. After he had gone
a short distance, and as soon as they were
out of sight of the school, they told him
roughly that he must go with them, and
picked him up and startad to the woods.
He did not know where or how far he went,
but only that long after dark that night ne
was taken to q small house, where he was
kept until last night, when he was taken
TO the gate TO Mr.. Closes place and left
there. The police are hard at work on the
case, but as yet no clue has been obtained.

LIVING ABOUT NH. WILSON.

Says the Washington correspondent
Of the esteemed IrtelligeRcer:
Congressman Wilson voted in committee
against Chairman Springer's plan OF az
lacking the tariff piecemeal.
He did. But his vote was not against
attacking the tariff 'piecemeal," so
much as it was in favor Of what Mr..
WILSON considered a better plan OF at
tack on the tariff monster.
When it was found that the majority
Of the committee did not beliye that a
general tariff bill was practicable, or
could possibly be passed at this session.
Mr.. WILSON promptly and heartily
Joined the majority in its plan Of firing
brief special bills at the Senate and Mr..
HARRIsox-bills attacking the worst
features Of the Mckinley iniquity, which
would admit OF little, il any, debate,
and would speedily give some re-
lief TO the American people, or, else,
place the blame for the lack Of it, pre-
clsely where it belonged.
The Iptelligencer's correspondent
chose to ignore Mr.. Wilson'S real
motive, however, in voting at first
against Mr.. SPRINGER's plan. He says:
He don't like a bit the idea Of facing his
district on a tariff scheme which provides
for free wool, lumber, salt and coal, and
leaves Dearly everything else taxable.
This comes directly under the head
Of what is colloquially termed dirty,
mean" partisanship. The correspond
ent is elther very ignorant Of the
part Mr.. WILSON took in framing the
Mills bill, or purposely ignores it for
the sake Of putting Mr.. WILSON in a
false position.
If he has not had sufficient expert
ence in Washington to have learned
that Mr.. WILSON has all the courage Of
his convictions, our neighbor should re-
call him and constitute him its cores
pendent at Weegee.

man who had in his possession, and used
as collateral on which 10 raise money,
one Of the bogus certificates OF stock

WILMINGTON, DEL, February 3-The
trial Of Walter Blackburn, young
married man on the charge OF murder
ing his brother-in-law, Edward ID.
Gardner, aged years, began this morn
ing. The case is in some respects, re-
markable. On October Il last, the BOY
Gardner was missed when night came
on and il was supposed he had followed
parade. The next day BLACKBURN
narrated an alleged dream that ne nad
had during an afternoon nap.
He said that he dreamed his little
brother-in-law was lying dead In
freight car which stood on siding at
the foot Of Fifth street. Blackburn told
this story to his wife among others, ana
then headed a searching party. They
went to some empty box cars on the sid
ing, and in one Of them was found the
boy dead with his neck broken.
The family was not satisfied, and
Biackburn's arrest followed. Some
months previous TO the death Of the boy
he was inveigled into freight car which
stood on the same siding where his BODY
was found and brutality treated by a
rufIian, who was sent 10 jail Tor six

Cold Water for Sores.

Every year the doctors find some new
way OF applying natures own remedies.
In the Veterinary Hospital of the Uni
versity OF Pennsylvania, water is very
extensively used. BY the aid OF rubber
tubing, cold water is kept running slow
ly through an open wound from two to
ten hours day, the antiseptic dressings
being put on only at night. By this
treatment the wound is kept clean, in
flammation and pain are allayed, and
healing is consequently very rapid. The
hospital has also brick tank, with hot
and cold water supply, in which a
dozen horses, suffering from corns or
other hoof diseases, can enjoy soci-
able daily foot bath. 1t seems strange,
with the modern interest in veterinary
medicine, that this should be the only
veterinary school and hospital occupy
ing buildings especially designed for it's
use.

CArsE OF TIE DELAY.

There is little reason in the criticism
passed by Republican organs upon the
delay Of the new Congress in getting
down to the solid work of legislation.
1t is true that two months have pass
ed, and the rules Of the House are still
under discussion, and that no measure
Of general Importance has yet been
presented in shape for considera-
ton.
But is must be borne In mind that the
new House has before it more arduous
task than has fallen to the lot OF any
previous Congress for many years. 1t is
the task Of restoring its character as a
deliberatlve body. In this it is opposed
at every step by the remnants of the
demOrallzed House Of the last Congress,
aud its progress is necessarily slow.
For.all this, however, 1t is time that
the new Congress was seriously at
work.
1t has a great work to do, and it
should waste no time in doing it.
