custom to be clothed, which at most is
very sparingly, in the stars and stripes,
and presented a very gorgeous appear
ance. They, like most of the other ma
tionalities on the Plaisance, gave spe-
cial performances in honor of the occa-
sion, and they seemed to partake fully
of the prevailing spirit of revelry.
The outpour from the city was some
thing enormous and must have been in
the aggregate very near a half million.
The admissions footed up considerably
over a third of d million. But the vast
number who daily come and go by the
underground route would in all prob
ability greatly augment the receipts
were they to have paid their passage.
At the conclusion of the exercises,
which lasted far into the night, a
strange sight was presented in the out
pouring Of the multitude toward the
gates. All the venue were black
with the slowly-moving masses of hu-
mainly. AS far as the eye could reach
in every direction they came swarming
and surging through every opening.
From all quarters to the exits the
stream flowed on until the railway
platforms We're choked to a standstill.
AS fast as the trains could load and
leave they Topped off the crowd, but
others quickly took the places of the
departed ones. Thus the exodus con-
tinued until far into the night, and
many of the Fourth of July visitors did
not reach their homes in distant parts
of the city rntiI we'll on toward morn
ing.
Thus Chicago has seer her Columbian
Fourth of July, and it is safe to say
that those who participated in the eel
ebration thereof will not soon forget
the day. Altogether it was a grand
day and surprisingly free from acct
dents. There were a few minor mis-
fortunes, but nothing of a very serious
nature occurred at the grounds.

June Receipts.

Nearly two and three-fourths million
people paid to pass through the gates
at the fair during the month of June.
Of this number over two and one-half
million were adults, and the others
were children. During May the paid
admissions numbered 1,050,03 %, S25
being children. This is an increase of
over 100 per cent. for the month. The
average daily attendance during May
was a little over 81, 500. For June it
was nearly 10000. The gate receipts

they amounted to nearly 81 0 900.

A Relic.

In the last month of her life Mary
Queen of Scots amused herself making
a bed quilt. Upon a background Of
red, green and black silk she worked
various designs with silk thread of
bright colors. In several places she at
tempted embroidered portraits of noted
characters of her time. The resem-
blances, however, are striking. This
quilt was the gift of the queen to a
maid of honor who remained with her
through loss of power and friends.
The quilt has been carefully treasured
by the descendants of the one to whom
it was given. 1t was brought by them
to this country. and one of them, Sem
ator John Bidlake, of South Dakota,
SEM it to the fair.

Breveted Major General. While still in
the field he was nominated for Congress
from the Second Ohio District. When
written to with request to come home to
conduct his canvass, he replied that he
had other business on hand and that a
man who would ''leave the army at such
time to electioneer for Congress, ought
to be scalped." He was elected, how
ever, and took his seat December 4th,
1866. A private of his regiment writes Of
Col. Hayes, "a drawer or better man was
not in the army. He had an abundance
Of grit. II he had fault it was that In

There 10 curious muddle 10 the school
money Of Huuterdon this year. The law
demands that the money shall be return
ed to the counties, at least ninety pei cent.
Of all they raise, and be ready for the pay
ment OF teachers by the tenth Of February.
This year 1t didn't come, and nobody
knows when Il will
Hunterdon has always been one OF the
counties that pay out more money than
they receive. The extra amount this year
is, II we are correctly informed, about
$1,700. By some unaccounta5le blunder
the amount that was to be returned to the
county was handed over TO the Board OF
Assessors, instead OF the amount that was
to be raised In the county. Consequently
we did not raise or pay into the State
Treasury as much as we should have done
by 81. TOO.
Now as we learn, the Comptroller re-
fuses to pay out the money due TO Hun
terdon, because her share OF the tax is not
10 hand, and he has no assurance when 1t
will be. Nobody can blame him for that;
but the situation is not pleasant for a
good many people. From the first of
September to the tenth OF February seems
long enough to work without receiving
any pay. With five months wages back,
the teachers naturally fee; little sore tina.
they must walt even beyond that unreason-
able time.
The county Is responsible for the coun-
TVS blunder. There must be legal way
to set the matter right, and it should be
done without delay. The Board OF Free
holders certainly have, or ought to have,
power to borrow the necessary funds.
