The exhibits which form the feature
of the ninth annual exposition are now
in perfect order for the opening next
Wednesday, when Gilmore's band with
100 pieces will give a grand concert,
which will be attended not only by
thousands of visitors. but also by the
governors of Missouri and other states,
each accompanied by a large suite. As
Gilmore's New York engagement does
not terminate until Tuesday morning, it
has been necessary to charter a special
train to bring him here in time for the
opening on the evening of September
Z. The train will bring the largest as
well as the finest band ever heard in
the west, and it is safe to say that the
playing of one hundred skilled must

stances were very different from what

]ected the bread of dependence offered

SIT proved to be harder work than /

starvation. One dreadful night, of
which this is the twentieth anniver-
sary. / was half crazed with poverty
and despair. For two days l had not
tasted food, MOI did 1 see the slightest
prospect Of obtaining any.
"As l crouched shivering in the gar
ret which served me for a lodging l
must have gone q little mad"
WELL" said the surgeon, who had
been listening with much interest
"Have you ever heard of ccmpacts
with the evil one?" demanded the
stranger.

piled the surgeon, on whose spirits the
occasion and the visitor were begin

ly. 'Since then everything has pros
percd with me. I married the woman
l loved. We have a large family. l
have kept my secret to myself. To
night at twelve my time expires"
Mostyn rose, and, taking great care
not to %extinguish the flames, snuffed
the candles.
"As l supposed my death would be
strictly a natural one." continued the
stranger. II thought l would consult a
surgeon, in order to see whether my
heart was sound, or whether l was to
die, as / have said, in a perfectly natur-
al manner, owing to its disease. A
Waterman whom / met directed me to
your door"
Half an hour passed and 4 neighboring
eleven. One hour more. The surgeon,
CHANGING at his companion, to see what
effect the sound had upon him, saw
his eyes were closed and that he
breathed heavily.
Rising cautiously to his feet he felt
the pulse Of the strong, sinewy wrist
which hung over the side of the chair,
and then, returning to his seat, sat
closely regarding him, not without
casting certain uneasy glances into the
dark corners of the room.
For a few seconds, it seemed, his
eyes closed. When he opened them the
fire was ont, and the figure in front of
him still sat in the chair, though its
head had now fallen on its breast.
Full OF a horrible fear he glanced
hurriedly at the clock and saw hat it
was just upon the stroke of four; then
he sprang to the side of his guest and
seized the wrist nearest him. As he

with contrary winds, high seas and ter
rife storms, he reluctantly consented to
give up his efforts after a struggle OF
sixty-two days, and returned to Ameri.
ca on q bark which kindly consented to
take him and his sea beaten boat back
to New York.
The captain is very interesting char
acter. He is a man of fixed purposes,
very hard to turn from the object which
he has in view. He has made the sub
ject of small boat sailing such n study
that he is prepared to meet every argu-
ment against the risks which spring to
the minds of his critics, yet the New
York Herald put the case in a nutshell
when it said: THE fact that Capt. An
drews can cross the ocean in n cocklo
shell merely proves that small boats are
safe when a Capt. Andrews sails them.
Amateurs should remember this when
the wind begins to sing"
The captain himself says that "half
the people who are drowned lose their
lives because they do not realize that a
boat cannot sink. An iron vessel might,
or q ship loaded with a heavy cargo,
but q row boat, sail boat or ordinary
wooden vessel may capsizc, but will,
nevertheless, float. The passengers on
the great cea steamers run some risk
when they go 10 sea, but all around the
deck they see wooden boats hung up on
which they arc taught to depend for
their lives if the big steamer goes down.
These boats are often crushed against
the great vessel or are capsized in
lowering. / am alone in a wooden boat
entirely under my own control, and, in
opinion, far safer than others" An
ingenious theory but hardly a fair one.
Capt. Andrews is by trade a piano
maker. He built the ''Sapolio" at At

of people, and exhibited it on the Long
Pier for several weeks. 1t is a canvas

When Marshal Macnfahon was presi-

dent occurred which illustrates the
F~renchman's love of what is dramatic.
A French soldier sat on the summit of
a hill overlooking a garrison town; his
horse was picketed close by; the man
was smoking leisurely, and from time
to time he glanced from the esplanade
to a big official envelope he held in his
hand. A comrade passed by and asked:
"What are you doing here?"
Il am bearing the pre- sident's pardon
for our friend Flinchmann, who is to be
shot this morning" replied the smoker
calmly, without changing his comforta-
BILE attitude.

comrade.
"Ah, MOI" exclaimed the other, in
