The MOrId's Fair.

1t will undoubtedly be the grandest
one ever held anywhere. The popula-
ton of the earth grows larger and richer
every year, and every year new discov-
cries and inventions are made which
throw into the shade the things that
went before. So each worlds fair is
greater than its predecessor.
Chicago has accomplished marvels.
Even New Workers are surprised and
pleased with the size and beauty of the
mighty structures which Chicago has
prepared 10 house the worlds exhibits.
The Chicago Tribune calls on the engi-
neers to use only down draft furnaces
for producing steam. With these The
Tribune declares that any coal, however
cheap and nasty, may be used and the
smudge will not be troublesome. Other
wise the furnaces must be fed with an
thracite coal, and that costs seven dol
lars ton in Chicago. The Tribune in
forms us besides that the down draft
furnace will furnish an object lesson to
all the world in the matter of consuming
soft coal without making any SCOT OF
smoke. By all means let us have the
down draft furnace then. Such an object
lesson alone would be worth a trip to
the Worlds fair from any of the smoke
infested cities of the west.
The exposition will not be in running
order before June /, though there may
be ceremony of opening it before then
But there will be a mighty task to bt
done to get the exhibits from every

REV. JOSEPH osGooD. was closely pack
ed. He took for his text Leviticus XIV,
Q. "A Jubilee shall the fiftieth year be
unto you," and preached a sermon that
interested all New England and now at
tracts some attention elsewhere.
1t was such a wholesome, hopeful ser
mon. He declares tina everything and
almost everybody is getting better, and
especially that there never was so much
progress made in pure Christianity as in
the past century. Men are making dog
ma and ecclesiastical forms subordinate
to the great central idea of holy living.
In all the great denominations of Chris
tendon this great central idea is advanc-
ing-that. after whatever a man may
think and whatever forms he may adopt,
character, good living, a life Of hon
esty, justice, love, life devoted to the
highest and noblest ideals, is the essen
tial thing in practical Christianity"
He was born in Kensington, N. H.,
Sept. %, 1916, and was graduated from
Harvard divinity school with the high
est honors of his class in 1912. He went
TO Cohasset TO teach and was called to
preach. In 1874 he married Ellen Dew
ereux Sewell, who is still with him, and
they have living nine children and sew
enteen grandchildren. Among other
"reminiscences he gave these:
When / came here to preach there
never had been a carpet on these aisles.
We had no organ; an orchestra assisted
the choir. There were people who could
distinctly remember the Revolutionary
war. Last spring couple came to me
to be married. The groom belonged to
family for whom had performed pas
toral duties for either funerals or wed
dings in six generations, and the bride
also belonged to family in which had
had the same experience, and performed
parochial duties for six generations.
There was no important business
then except fishing, about fifty vessels 60
ing out in the spring to fish. This gave
employment TO great many, including
coopers and sailmakers, while many
others, by rigid economy and hard work
made respectable living on their farms,
In those times the Congregational soci'
cites were state societies. Men were
compelled to pay for support of minis
try, and to pay their taxes for support OF
preaching, as they were for all othel
needs Of the town.

Woman's Gain in Physique.

the opinions OF DIR. Is. w. Richardson,
the eminent London specialist, are al
ways entitled Ia respect. He has written
lately for an English monthly notable
article on the gains women have made
physically in the past twenty years. The
change began longer ago than that, IN
America at least, but perhaps DIR. Rich
nrdson was so busy writing about the
benefits of total abstinence that he did
not observe it.
DR.. Richardson says that no changes
h the past twenty years in anything are
more remarkable than those which have
occurred in the education and physical
training of women. Mankind have al
ready learned that women can practice
physical exercises with as much benefit
as men can. He lays the credit for this
discovery at the door of the fashionable
outdoor society games. Croquet began
the revolution; lawn tennis, cricket and
swimming continued it, It'll now there
is hardly an athletic sport or exercise Of
any kind in which the young woman
does not take her share as well as the
young man."
Swimming, however, DR.. Richardson
regards as the best of all exercises for
both men and women. Nothing brings
into play more muscles at the same time.
There is also another point in favor of
the swimming exercise which the doc
tor mentions that of course has no bear
ing on ladies, for they are already the
pink of perfection in that respect. 1t is
the habit of personal cleanliness which
the practice Of swimming develops.
Lawn tennis is good exercise for wom-
en-. Cycling is good and would be bet
ter if women only wore decent clothes"
The learned hygienist is utterly against
the long skirts and corsets worn by
women. But even with the bad cloth
ing the sex wears DR.. Richardson does
not know a woman who has tried cycling
in moderation that has not been bene-
flied thereby. Fifty miles day is as
much as woman ought to attempt, he
believes, but then that would probably
depend much on the woman.
1t is encouraging to read DR.. Richard
sons summing up of the results of the
recent development of athletic culture
among women:
The health Of woman generally is improving
under the change. There is among women gen.
orally less bloodleesness. less Of what the old
fiction writers called swooning. less Of LASH
tude, less Of nervousness, less Of hysteria and
much less Of that general debility to which,
for want of a better term, the words "malaise''
and "languorn have been applied. Woman,
in a word, is stronger than she was in olden
time. With this increase Of strength woman
has gained in development Of body and OF
! limb. She has become less distortiOned. The
curved back, the pigeon shaped chest, the dis
| proportioned limb, the narrow, feeble trunk,
/ the small and often distorted eyeball, the my
/ opic eye and puny i'll shaped external ear-an
/ these parts are becoming Of better and more
/ natural contour. The muscles are also becom-
| ing more equally and more fully developed
and with these improvements there are grow
| ing up among women models who may in due
time vie with the best models that old Greeh
| culture has left for us to study In its undyinl
| Art.

The location Of Bellingham Bay as a
desirable place of residence was very
happily illustrated last evening by the
beauty Of the sunset, which flooded the
western skies with an indescribable
halo of glory, and reflected thousand
pictures Of infinite splendor upon the
unrufiied waters of the bay. The faces
Of all who had the pleasure of viewing
the matches and delicate interlacings

with enthusiasm and joy, and renewed
professions Of loyalty to the charming
city Of Fairhsven, the ne plus ultra Of
natural beauty, were heard on every
hand.

The Long and Short of 10.

The emperor of Germany, as every
body knows, is a soldier from the crown
of his head TO the soles of his feet. Any
thing appertaining to the army interests
him. He has just placed upon the wall
of his study large photograph Of which
he is very proud 1t is portrait, half
life size, Of the biggest and the smallest
soldier of the Prussian army standing
side by side. The former is Private
Pritzchan, Of the First regiment of the
Prussian guard. He stands 8 feet "a
inches in hin boots, and when he pre-
sented himself at Dusseldorf for exami-
nation a special apparatus had to be pro
vided with which TO take his waist
measure. His breadth is in proper pro
portion TO his height. The smallest
soldier is the hereditary prince. The
picture is a unique one, showing YER
table giant, quite equal to any that fig
ure in "Grimm's Tales" or other books
of fables, and by his side soldierly
illiputian.

Anotable congress is that Of the Saliva
ton Army in New York city. From all
quarters of the United States and Canada
came the delegates-2,000 strong. Their
grand banquet seated 1000 persons. In
the United States and Canada are "a, 900
officers. The commanding general Of
this unique army, Darlington Booth, says
1t is composed chiefly Of American citi-
gems, either native or naturalized. A
large proportion is of the naturalized
order. The native American citizen
does not take kindly to street demon
strations, although the Salvation Army
has gradually gained the respectful sym
pathy of perhaps majority Of our PEG
pie. Some of the questions the Saliva
ton congress considered were how tc
lessen the number Of drunkards and
how to better the condition of the pool
in crowded tenement districts.

A Distinguished French Statesman.

The newspapers have had very little
to say of Edouard Valery Gressier, who
died recently, and yet he was one Of
Frances most able statesmen. He was
born in 1915, was educated in the law
and in science, and became early in life
counselor and advocate of the ministry
of finance. Afterward he was elected a
member of the council general for the
canton of Corbie. He became a govern
ment deputy in the corps legislstif In
1884, and served on several important
committees of that body, notably those
having charge of the budget and Of the
law Of military organization. M. Ores
sier was called to the ministry Of agri-
culture, commerce and public works in
1853, and in that Office gave especial at
tention to the organization Of higher in
struction in agriculture and reform Of
farm schools. He was named a senator
by decree on Dec. %, 1869. After the
fall of the empire he resumed his place
at the bar of Paris.

The death of Henry l.. Yesler in
Seattle yesterday removes another plo-
neer from the state and robs Seattle OF
one of its most prominent and aggres-
sive citizens. Mr.. Yesler landed at
Seattle in the year 1852, since which
time he has heen intimately Unidentified
with the history of the city, bearing
relationship to its growth and develop
ment similar to that of the late Captain
Eldridge in connection with the Bell
ingham Bay cities. That Mr.. Yesler
has gone does not lessen the work to be
done in placing the state of Washing
ton in its proper rank among the sister,
hood Of the Union, but intensifies
the demand that those upon whose
shoulders his mantle has fallen shall
all the more stand to the front with
manly strength and devotion in the
discharge of the responsibilities de-
volving upon them. The pioneers who
came to this state in territorial times
and by their heroic struggles made pos
sible the splendid achievements of
today are well worthy the respect and
admiration due to sturdy manhood.
They were men worthy Of their day,
and the few yet remaining with us
should realize in the veneration and
courtesies of the present generation
that full reward of affection to which
they are 50 Justly entitled.

There is no possibility whatever of
any contagion of small pox spreading
in the city from the recent presence of
the Umatilla in the bay, and any fear
on this point by the residents of the
city is entirely groundless and without
foundation. No one stopped in the
city from the infected ship, all COM
munication between it and the shore
having been promptly shut off. The
freight which was landed was dis
charged from the forward hold Of the
vessel, far removed from the quarters
OF the patient, and besides being placed
in quarantine was thoroughly and per-
sistently fumigated. Small pox germs
are not communicated in the early de-
velopment of the disease, but in its de-
cline, so that the probabilities Of conta-
gion, even to those on board of the
Umatilla, are reduced to a minimum,
and pass almost beyond the range of
possibility to the residents Of the Bay
cities.
