Keonomizing on Preaehers.

In Clark county, where hard times pre-. vail and crops failed this year, the relig- ious people of all denominations are get ting together and discharging all but one minister in the interest of economy. At Ashland. the county seat, seven denomi- nations combined and took a vote on the most popular of the seven ministers who should preach the gospel to the people, eschewing all doctrinal topics. The Rev. Milleck of the Methodist church was se- lected and the other six discharged. The unsuccessful were not soured, and accepted their fate, knowing that there was support but for one minister.

An Intnrnntionnlrnisode

An international incident of an m. usual and amusing sort has given inter- est to the news of the week from Cans ada. Admiral Magnaghi arrived at Montreal with his ship Etna, and,as he dropped anchor he fired a number of guns prescribed by naval etiquette as salute to the flag of friendly nation. But Montreal has mayor who does not recognize the kingdom of Italy, and by his orders the salute was not returned. It is understood that he bases his refusal to recognize King Humbert on the ground that Victor Emanuel wronged the head of the church of which he is faithful member and that the king of Italy is, therefore. in some way a usurper.
 The mayor of Montreal is evidently a long way behind the times. But Ad- miral Magnaghi is not, and he forthwith telegraphed the Ottawa government, de- mandipg that the prescribed amount of powder be burnedin honor of theItalian flag, and intimating that unless this were done without further offensive de- lay he should feel compelled to resent the indignity by sailing right away out of the St. Lawrence. So the premier at Ottawa ordered the mayor at Montreal to fire the salute, the admiral is ap- peased, and the international incident is closed,-Boston Commonwealth.

A startling Contrast.

Two chorus girls came out of the stage door of Palmer's theater one evening One was covered with satins and laces, and the diamonds which adorned her little pink ears made the electric lights ashamed of themselves. She slammed the old wooden door with naughty air and waved a pretty white gloved hand Her eoachman was quick to see his sig nal, and a private victoria was soon be- side the young woman The driver got his orders in a low tone, and the carriage was whirled away. The other chorus girl was pale, thln and actually looked hungry. A cheap dress, evidently de signed and made by its wearer. and a winter hat formed part of her costume, A bundle of sewing iii her hand proved that she wasted no time between the acts.
 While waiting for car she counted the few pennies in her possession. She looked at an approaching car and at her bit of money, then resolved to walk Manager |. E. Rice and a friend had been standing near the stage door What a remarkable contrast in the two picturesr' said the friend. "Bothreceiye the same salary" explained the man. ager as he shrugged his shoulders, but it's the old story--the first one saves her money and the other doesn't. New York Evening Sun.

A little Chicago 5-year-old (eYerything happens in Chicago this summer) was, according to raconteur on suburban piazza last week, at one time bidden by her mother to De very good on a certain evening when the pastor and his wife were to take tea with her parents.
 You must not speak unless you are spoken to; if you really want anything you must ask for it very prettily and properly" was the oft repeated injunc- tion of the mother, and the child sat down at the table with a crushing sense of the importance of the occasion.
 As the meal progressed she found her self in need of something The minister sat next her, and after due consideration she decided to appeal to him. "Mr A. ? she began, raising her grave blue eyes to his face, twill you please, for Christ's sake, to pass me the butter?"--New York limeg

Did hfr. Kelly Do nirhta

Did Mir. John Kelly do the right thing, or did he do the wrong thing. yet the only thing possible under the circum. stances; According to his story he was dining in restaurant with a woman when the latter complained of the too manifest admiration of two elderly men who sat at table near Kelly was about to femonstrate when, so he says, they got up and, on pretense of looking at a picture which hung over the table, one of them addressed a remark to his companion. Mir. Kelly smote the in- truder between the eyes, breaking his glasses, and was arrested. It is a repeti- tion of Guy de Maupassant's story of "The Coward" over again, except that Mir. Kelly was courageous. But what was he to do? A cat may look at a king, says the proyerb Yet if the way of looking was objectionable, what was Mir, Kelly to do?-New York Evening Sun

An 1ndu.frlous fython.

A Danbury (Conn.) man has large collection of snakes, including pair of African pythonsr a male and female. One day last week the female python commenced to lay, and up tothe present time has deposited over 100 eggs. They vary in size and shape, but on an aver age are larger than goose eggs. It is something unusual for pythons to lay when in captivity, It is generally re- puted that the only other instance re- corded was in t84f,. when a python in the Paris geological garden laid three dozen eggs.--Philadelphia Ledger.

Marrying In Hnrh Times.

Question Would The Sun advise an engaged couple 60 get married in these hard times.
 Answer--n there be no other bar to the marriage than the hardness of the times, it ought not to be forbidden. Of course the bachelor who desires to be- come a husband should be able to earn Q living or should otherwise have the means of life at his command, so that he shall be able to provide for the woman who is willing to become his wife, and that thus the twain may enjoy welded bliss without undue anxiety about the morrow. We notice by the municipal record of marriages that just about as many people get married here in hard times as in better times; when work is slack and money tight as when both are plentiful, We could not give advice iu an individual case like that which is pre- sented to us, because we know nothing about the parties, but we know that the love which laughs at locksiniths can of ten act very boldly without ever having cause to regret the action. We are not prepared to say that the engaged couple should shrink from serious duty or postpone the day of wedlock merely be- cause the times gre not so good as they have been or as they will be after awhile.

Cook & Whitby's English 3-Rihg Circus,
Menagerie and Hippodrome, which exhib-
ed here yesterday, gave the utmost salts
faction and delight to its swarm of Wis
itorS.
This show more nearly realizes the
highest ideal of all that circus can be
than any we have ever attended. The
riding was superb. the races created great
excitement. ELECTED tumultuous applause,
while every act out of the hundred given
at it, or. in other words, there was not a
poor feature in the performance, which Is
more than we can say OF any circus That
has ever visited Pit,sburg.
The parade made in the morning was a
revelation of wealth and splendor that
fairly dnZzled the beholders. The cost of
such display must be appalling, the dens
and wagons being covered " itb ivory aud
gliitering gold, every horse n thorough bred
and all animals richly c4parsoned IN silk
and satin-a solid mile Of them together.
The balloon ascensions took plack in the
afternoon, and, combined with the splendid
sharpshooting and other free exhibitions,
vastly pleased the people who were inst
looking around"
In fact, everything about this immense
organization seems perfect, the uniformly
courteous and quiet department of all en-
ployes was widely commented upon. and
created the most favorable impression.
We beg to acknowledge courtesies eX-
tended by Messrs. Cook g. Whitby aud
their representatives, and hope to again
have the pleasure of attending so great an
eXhibition.-Pittsburg Press.

the cost of visiting the fair. If you
cannot go for song it is also true
that it will cost considera bly, less than
fortune.
What will It cost?
Well, it depends good deal on what
part of the country you are living in, for
railroad fares are the big item to any
body living far from the Windy city.
There has been much sanguine talk as
to fares-as to cut rates, excursions,
specialties, etc. But it must be remem-
bered that these expectations are gen
orally too saEguine. Railways cannot
carry people for nothing, or for the ex-
element of having crowded cars. The
great lines have already been very
busy and it is estimated that many of
them will have all they can carry in
few weeks even should the rates re-
main unchanged. There will, hOwev-
err be reductions in rates everywhere,
not great reductions. but notifications
that will reduce the travelling expense
of visiting the fair about one-third. OF
course there will be special excursions
that will cut the figure still lower, but
these will be the exception.
Railway fares are an item of expense
that is quickly determinable. Every
one is in a position to find out what
they will amount to. What everybody
wants to know Just now is what must
I spend at Chicago?
The question is not easy to answer,
because you may spend as much as you
like at Chicago if not as little as you
like.
Let us look first at the matter of
lodgings. People who suppose that
there is any likelihood of scarcity OF
room in Chicago are greatly mistaken.
Chicago has about seven hundred and
fifty hotels. These are good. bad and
Indifferent, of course, like the hotels
of any other city, and are scattered
over the area of a city that sprawls
considerably. Many of these hotels
have recently increased their accom-
modations. It was sd id of the fremont
house, in ChicagO's earlier days. that
one of the amusements of its guests
was to sit in the doorway and shoot
wild ducks in the neighboring swamps.
This season the hotel loungers are
going. to sit in the doorway and watch
the worlds fair visitors wrestle for
rooms.
Unless rooms are engaged in adj
vance it is going to be precariOus
matter looking for quarters at the bet
ter class of Chicago hotels this sum-
mer. So far as rates go there will not
be much of any rise here; so that the
item of hotel expenses can easily be
figured up by estimating the conven-
tional rates-from two to ten dollars
day.
Very early in the game Chicago
awol1e to the possibilities of the
furnished room line of trade. The
South side in the vicinity Of Jackson
park was stormed by speculative rent
ers and boarding house keepers.
Thousands of people gave up their
houses in this part OF the city in order

pant. Small rooms in private houses
will sometimes cost less and sometimes
more than that; generally more in good
neighborhoods. The speculative dor

iacent to the fair grounds will give
small rooms for one dollar and two
dollars a day. With board the same
rooms viii cost two, three and
four dollars. If you can find
them there are boarding houses
in plenty that will give room
and board for eight dollars, ten dollars
and twelve dollars week. Those that
are most convenient to the grounds
will, on the average, be found poorer
in quality and higher in price than
those nearer the heart of the city; but
