HOW TO DO THE FAIR.
CHICAGO, June 3, 1898.

CHICAGO, June 3, 1898.
20 the Editor OF the Eagle.
| In my last letter l believe that l left
you on the roof of the manufactures
and liberal arts building, fixing The loca-
ton OF the buildings and grounds Of the
fair. Descending, we will then walk
through this building, taking a general
view of the exhibits, and over TO the
electricity building and through to the
mining building; then north through
the transportation, horticultural hall
and woman's buildings to the Fifty
seventh street entrance, where we will
take the cable or Illinois Central rail-
| road back to the city, well tired out for
one days trip.
The next day take the Illinois Central
railroads fast train at Van Buren,
street and enter the gate at Sixty-Thi-d
street and go through the Administra-
ton building, Machinery hall. Agricul-
tural, forestry--Casino and Music halls,
then a walk along the lake front will
bring you to the government and fish.
and fisheries building, to the art gallery.
All of these will have to be passed
through qaickly so as to visit ali the
state buildings. On this day, not for
getting to register at the Kansas build
ing, your name and stopping place in
the city, so that all Kansas may know
you are in the city. By this time you
will be ready to leave the grounds.
The third day take the Cottage Grove
Cable railroad to the Midway
Plaisance entrance on Cottage
Grove avenue. and spend the
day there. After these three day trips
you will then be ready to study the fair

selecting certain buildings for each day
and go through them thoroughly, giving
as much time as possible to each one of
them. 1t will take 4 month to see it as
it ought to be ard then person will not
be entirely satisfied that they have seen
it as they would like to. There is so
much to be seen and the grounds are
so extensive that much time is lost in 60

better for a person TO have some well
defined plan of going through the
grounds and exhibits than otherwise. IL

A Threat is Sufficient,

From the Lawrence journal.
The people down at Larned borrowed
cannon from the state, shot at the
clouds a few times, and heavy rain fell.
The people up in northwestern Kansas
engaged the cannon for the same pur-
pose, but the clouds evidently got wind
of it, and sailed from Larned up to the
other point where bombardment was
threatened, and poured down bounti-
full supply of water. 1t seems that bonn
bardment is no longer absolutely
necessary.

HIS SUMNER GIRL.

Oh. Of all the sweet girls of the town.
The one that love is the best;
On !, list While sing her renown,
But first let me pull down my vest.
Only little birls Az like thee;
Sweetest flowers alone may rhyme
BY their dew drops and their fragrance
Discourse from thy lips divine.
Angels in their lowering mission
OFT mistake my love for them,
And like circling doves returning,
Ask my love TO go with them.
Sweet one, tell me what detains thee,
Heavenly are all thy movements;
Each dear grace from the effulgent.
Conjures Heaven to thy presence.
Wand-like Heaven about thee spreads,
Space where thee alone may tread;
Abeyant powers of darkness learn
From thee fell outlines to spGrn.
Those cleaning facets of the sky,
The brightest OF them all bring nigh,
Compare the lusture with her eye:
"Oh, its not ia it, you will cry.
Bootless then it were to seek
In damask rose to match her cheek,
Oh, ruthless compare of sweet flower,
10 set it 'gainst her beauty's dover.
As useless still, and crueler too,
To rhyme the violet with the blue,
That in my true loves eye doth reign
The pretty flower would drowned been.

For many years the states of Virginia
and Tennessee have been engaged in Il
legal controversy as to which holds the
town of Bristol. The state line is sup
posed to run along the main street of the
town, and settlement of the disputed
point is as far off as ever. There are in
Bristol two city councils. two mayors
and two sets of police. There are two
towns situate on the line between Ken
lucky and ennessee-tiuthrie aad Full
ton-precisely similar to Bristol. To
thus locate town is an act of supreme
stupidity.

Pop Patriotism.

From the E-1poria keoHbl4cAn.
Governor Leweliing appointed a lot of
populists as delegates TO the antitrust
convention at Chicago, and, true TO their
populist instincts. when they got ready
to go they called at the state house for
their mileage and per diem" When
informed that they would have to pay
their own expenses if they attended the
convention, they announced their inten-
ton of leaving the work OF smashing
the trusts to someone else. A populjst
who would undertake Job. Of reform
where there was no mileage and per
diem attachment would be excon.-
municated.

From the topeka Capital.
There never was a time when the
banks in Kansas were III such sound
condition. While failures have been re-
ported all over the country for several
weeks Kansas has been entirely free
from catastrophe or suspicion. Deposits
were never so large; the people of the
state have more money Of their own

of the state. It is safe to say that if it

The threat of the Missouri, Kansas
and Texas railway managers to remove
the shops and division headquarters
away from Parsons to some other point
in the state if the company is required
TO re-establish its headquarters and gen
eral offices, recently removed to St.
Louis, in the state, is simply a bluff: it
is like ones cutting OFF his nose to spite
his face. The charter of the railroad
requires that its headquarters and gem
eral offices shall be set up and main
tanned within the state: to remove these
from the state is TO forfeit the charter
granted by the state, and Parsons inter
est in the matter, aside from its local
business concern, is no greater than that
of any other city or town In the COM
monwealth. To carry OUT the threat
would cost the railroad as much and
Inconvenience it no less than it would

called the railroad, and it wants to re-
