Southern ENTERPRISE,

The southern states are planning to
spend nearly two million dollars upon
the worlds fair. With this amount the
interests of the south can be well repre-
sented, and we are exceedingly glad to
note that interest is growing in the
matter throughout the south at such
rate that much larger amount of
money will probably be raised than is
now counted upon. There has been
much delay in commencing work, but
now that interest has been generally
awakened there is very gratifying
display Of activity on all sides. This
betokens much good to the south, for at
present there is nothing of such vital
Importance to the south as this great
exposition. We hope that the plans now
under consideration will be successfully
carried out, that much wider interest
will be awakened, and that much more
money will be available for worlds fair
purposes in the south.

WORLDS FAIR GUARDS.

stituted.

How the Columbian Guard Will Be Con.
stituted.
When visitors enter the worlds fair
grounds next year they will find a Co
lumbar guard of fifteen hundred men
to protect them in their wanderings
about the grounds and buildings The
guards will not have the appearance Of
the policemen who travel beats in the
city of Chicago, but each will be clothed
in a natty uniform of blue. consisting
of braided blouse and trousers, with
bright red stripes. They will wear
fatigue cap modelled somewhat after
an Austrian design, and carry ma
hogany mace and a short bayonet
sword.
These men will be under the diref-
ton of Col. Edmund Rice, U. S. A. Col.
Rice will be the commander Of the
guard and have general police super
vision over the grounds during the
period of the fair. In order to secure
his services special act of congress
was necessary, and it was passed, for
the colonel belongs to the department
of the Missouri, with headquarters at
"0~AA -~1~~-
Miles as acting judge advocate
Col. Rice is the hero OF more than
score of battles In which he participated
in the late war, and as a consequence OF
which he received a number OF wounds.
He entered the service at the age of
nineteen as captain of the Fourteenth
Massachusetts. In 1862 he was pro-
noted to major, and at the battle OF
Gettysburg was twice wounded in the
repulse of Pickett's charge. On that
occasion he plunged forward with his
command, and is credited with being
chiefly instrumental in repelling Pick
ett's assault. In reward for this service
he was last year given a medal by con-
gress, the inscription of which read:
''The congress to Lieut. Col. Edmund
Rice, Nineteenth Massachusetts Volun
teers, for conspicuous bravery on the
third day of the battle OF Gettysburg. :"
No sooner had the colonel taken hold
of the work several weeks ago than he
discharged number of men whom he
found lettering on their routes and gen.
orally inattentive to rules. He wasn't

WOMEN IN a JELLY PALACE.

California Lady Managers Novel Feature
for the Main Building.
The California woman's board has
decided to erect a jelly palace in one OF
the main buildings. The plan calls for
a quaint Gothic structure, and the
framework will be encircled by strings
Of crystal while stained glass will form
the structure proper. There will be
either separate adobe structure out
side or fanciful booth inside the Cali.
fornia state building for souvenir
stand.
Archaeology and ethnology will also
receive particular attention in the Cali
fornja exhibit. The states romantic
period ante-dates the discovery Of gold,
when the priests and cavaliers Of Spain
battled for supremacy over the descend
ants of the Aztecs, and the relics OF
that time have now been completely col
lected. In addition there will be q state
banquet under the special management
of Mrs. Frona Wait, Lady manager, who
originated the plan. It will be set in
the state building and composed entire
~ of California products; not only the
viands, but the silver, glass, porcelain
and the table itself. A concession for
the cafe is already under consideration,
thus insuring cooking facilities, and
the cold storage transit will provide
the arrival of California fruits and food
of every description perfectly fresh and
in admirable ordar. a special commit
tee of fifteen is appointed to carry out
each of the plans. The chairman Of
each committee is member of the
state board, but the remainder of the
several committees are made up of out
siders, with a view to enlisting the
general public in the work. A. fee of
one dollar will constitute membership,
and will contribute to the worlds fair
fund.

REGARDING ELEPHANTS.
They Don't Have the Story Book Kind Of
Love for Their Keepers.

They Don't Have the Story Book Kind OF
Love for Their Keepers.
Talking of elephants, you read a
good many fool stories about them" re-
marked Bill Newman, the veteran
trainer at the Madison Square garden,
to New York Commercial reporter;
''stories that don't go much on facts
and q heap on fancy.
"The principal one of them, the one
you always see in the children's picture
books, is that the elephant truly loves
his keeper and will defend him at any
cost. I've been training the beasts for
over twenty two years, and in all that
time I've met about five elephants that
would fight for the man who took care
of them.
kindness helps in a way, but the
only method to get and keep absolute
control over those animals is to use the
steel freely and for all it's worth.
s'Once you earn their respect you're
safe as long as you choose to stay with
them, but once let them doubt your abil
fly to control and punish them and
you'd better get your policy paid, for
you'll never know when you'll be sent
up the center pole by stamp or a blow.
Children are easy to bring up compared
with elephants. With the former you
can indulge in all sorts of moods, but
with the latter you must preserve one
tone at all times.
"a trainer who varies the treatment
of his charges, rewards them when they
ought to be punished, and vice versa,
won't live long. The beast, unable to
reason out what's expected of him, gets
worried, and generally ends matters by
laying out the gentleman who's annoy
ing him This you can lay down a
standard rule: If you ever let an ele-
phant get away with 3 bluff, no matter
how small it is, you're never safe with
him after that.
Really bad elephants are few and
the majority Of them have been made
so by dishonest trainers. These ruen
teach one particular animal in their care
to attack everyone but themselves, and
thus heighten their own value and win
regulations for their valor in bossing
an elephant that every body is afraid Of.
''Do think that will be killed in
harness? Well, haven't given much
thought to that. A dozen elephants
have tried to settle me SO far, but
fooled them all, and it'll take a pretty
smart one to corner me-"

The average layman has no concep-

times, and, in fact, usually, these at
ternpts are attended with the most
annoying ANNOUNCEMENTS. Of the
two great lenses, which, together, are
to form the forty-inch glass of the Lick
observatory, in California, the first one
is. safe in a Cambridge factory. The
second lens was in process Of construc-
