THE CHICAGO EXPOSITION.
The Board of Directors Decides to Close
The Fair at 7 O'CDck Each
Evening-InSurance.

The Scotch Home Industries Associa-
ton proposes to reproduce the cottage of
Robert Burns ut the Worlds Fair.
Emilio CASTELAR,, the renowned atates-
man, orator and author Of Spain, is the
choice of the entire Worlds Fair man
agement for orator on the opening day
OF the Worlds Fair.
The insurance written upon the
Worlds Fair buildings now aggregates
"a 100000. When the fair opens next
spring it is thought the contents of the
buildings will reach the value of $780,
100000 at least.
The electricians who propose to have
exhibits at the Chicago Worlds Fair are
indignant because of the decision of the
Board of Directors to close the fair at 7
o'clock each evening, as it will not per-
NIT of good display of their products.
Chicago has more than fulfilled the
promise it made to the country with re.
gard to the Fair. That city has spent
100000 in providing home for it,
and it has spent them not only with
characteristic liberality, but with such
good taste, with such respect, reverence,
even, for art, as to command universal
admiration and commendation. The
promise Chicago made was to erect the
buildings by May l, 1898. They are al
ready erected, and they surpass in their
grandeur and beauty all possible ex-
pectation. The city having done SO
much, the country should not do less
proportionately. First of all, it should
cordially and gratefully recognize the
magnitude and the value of the great
work Chicago has done, and it should
then resolve, the preparation for the
Fair be- ng SO adequate, the completion
of it should be equally SO; that it should
be in deed and fact complete exposi-
ton of all the products and productions
OF the worlds arts and sciences, and es-
pecially of those of this hemisphere.

THE oARKY DUcKeo IN TIME.
IL Was a Trick He Learned During the
War, and IL Served Him Well.

War, and IL Served Him Well.
From where we sat on the tavern veranda
we could look right across the Mississippi
river, although at the edge Of the river on
our side there was bluff 40 feet high, with
q strong current below All along this bluff
were commons, and we had an unobstructed
view. We we're talking and smoking when
a goat came around the corner of an old
abandoned warehouse and began to feed
toward u.s. Five minutes later an old white
headed darky, using a cane TO help him
along, came out from behind the same ware
house and stood almost on the edge Of the
bluff, and appeared to gaze across the river.

We ought to have warned the old man,

but no warning was uttered. 1t was human
nature to want to see the fun. The goat shot
away like fash, and as be drew near be
made long jump to give full force to the liz
tended blow. Next instant both had disap-
peared, and we ran down expecting to SEQ
them struggling in the muddy waters. As
we reached the bluffs the old man rose up
from pit dug within two feet of the edge,
and grinned and lifted his hat and said:
"Mawnin', gem'len. 'Spected TO find me

He pointed to the goat, which was swine

down, and one Of the party replied;
"Yes, we certainly thought you were q

The Bad Boston Uncle.

Among the children of certain Sunday
school is bright little boy of four years. He
has an uncle who takes great pleasure in
teaching him nonsensical verses. A few
Sundays since his teacher was telling the
class about the busy bees, and asked if any
of the children could tell her anything about
them.
Waldo can" spoke up the little fellow
"Well, Waldo, you may stand in front and
tell US what you know"
And Waldo, rising proudly, steamed away
with these lines;
How doth the little busy bee
Delight to bark and bite,
To gather honey all the day
And eat 1t up at night"
Trying to suppress smile the teacher
asked:

He Was Getting 1t.

At one of the towns below Rochester wo-
man and her nurse and child got aboard, and
it wasn't long before the child who was boy
of 8, began to act up. The mother paid no
attention to him whatever, not even when he
began to kick and bite, strike and squall.
All the passengers soon agreed that the young
autocrat was in sore need of spanking, but
the mother had her nose in novel and the
nurse didn't want to take the responsibility.
By and by an old man, who had been suffer-
ing with headache, could stand it no longer,
and he leaned up and whispered to the nurse:
why don't you give that young'un good
poundingl"
"Kape shtill, yer honor" she replied with
wink. I've got four pins sticking into his
body already, and in minute or two I'll
have thray or four more. Detroit Free

Africa.

The next two centuries will have work
enough on their hands in civilizing
Africa and developing its marvellous re-
sources. Whether the dark continent
will be civilized for the use Of white
men or black is something no one can
foresee. If the white race is still to be
the all conquering, then the negro will
decline and disappear before the eau
casian's approach, just as the Indian of
America faded out of life. There are
parts of Africa where, it is said, white
men cannot live. But as the forests are
cut away and the land drained these
districts will become less in size. And
rich as even the Americas were in ma
terial resources, Africa is richer. This
fact will continue to draw white men
thither till not foot of the dark con-
tinent remains unexplored and unappro-
priated. The nations of Europe on one
pretext or another will parcel out the
whole among themselves, and it is by
no means impossible that there may be
fighting over the partition.
Meantime discoveries are adding con-
stantly to the resources of Africa. 1t
has been lately found by explorers that
two rivers of east Africa which were al
most unknown-the Tana and the Juba
are each navigable for more than $50
miles. This makes them superior for
trade purposes to any of the west Afri-
can rivers, even the Congo itself.
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1892-12-10

There is a good deal of talk
of protecting and encouraging
home enterprise, but it seems to
us that from the first day of the
street railway question to the
present it was bound down by
Double barred iron laws and
made to walk the razor blade of
compliance, with the death pen
atty hanging over its head all
the time. 1t certainly has had
a hard road to travel and has
been much discouraged by those
who pant for public encourage
ment of the enterprises in which
they have an interest. No other
concern in town has been so
strictly watched and so closely
pursued and so illiberally treated
by individual and community
right and authority. 1t cannot
be possible that men are influ-
enced against one franchise and
in favor of others just because
they have an interest in one and
not in another, or that their SOC
lal or political friends are inter
ested pro and con. Where do
the people come in? Where are
Pro Bono Publico and Mr.. Tax
payer? Deal fair, gentlemen ;
you are all in one boat, and your
nieces and uncles and aunts will
not save you if you kick the bot
tom out of your town. The peo-
pie should take more interest
and make their influence felt
more general in these vital en-
terprises.
