here are legion from the delicate fiberS

like a piece of rough crystal. A spec

The wellknown affection Of the Irish

in Il very substantial form by h crea-
ton of the Midway Plaisance of two
Irish villages or fac SMILES of noted
Irish castles with appropriate surrounds

il is said that the sharpest rivalry with

the lions share Of the public patronage.
The two castles represented are Blair

legend and story. The principal attrac-

Vast Power of the Atmosphere.

Somebody has made the calculation
that, taking the quantities roughly and
in round numbers, the atmosphere
weighs about n ton TO every square
foot Of the earth's surface, 25,00o,0OO
tons per spare mile, or 5000, GOO, 0OG,-
900, 900 tons on the total of 00,000,-
300 square miles; and its energy is that
due to the motion Of this inconcelvablc
mass, at velocities varying all the way
from the slightest zephyr to the hurri-
cane and the cyclone, rushing owe
the prairie or over the surface of the
sea at more than n hundred miles
per hour. Again, according to this au-
thority. a cubic mile Of air, weighing
about ten billion pounds, develops at
the rate of motion of the cyclone, some
1000. 900, OO0, 900 foot tons Of energy,
and If all were employed at such rate
for the performance Of work, useful
or destructive, this number of foot
pounds would be equivalent 10 more
than 2,O0O,O O0, 000, 100000 horse power.

America was scarcely considered.
What their surprise was when they
found more stylish and better made
fur garments of all kinds made here
than they could display can better be
imagined than described. The Ameri-
can fur display is far ahead Of that of
either France or Russia.
Russia has a lot of cheap goods, and,
with the exception of a few sables, does
not merit much consideration. France
sets the style in fur goods, and then,
just the same as in leather and shoe
goods, she is surpassed by the Yankees
In Following the patterns of that style
IN making stylish garments. America,
according to the display in the Liberal
Arts building, is away ahead in watches
and all kinds of jewelry. The French
and Germans are manufacturing styles
which went out of vogue here twenty
years ago. These are facts based upon
statements made in interviews with OK
pertS in these branches of business.

is quite generally known that the pclts

posed TO have Ill the dying done in this

cause the old Alaskan company were

1t is a pleasing weakness of human
nature to assume that every good thing
belongs in Il peculiar way to ones own
country or TO ones own special part
of it. A Frenchman who had been
spending a considerable time in Ger,
many exclaimed, Immediately after
crossing the frontier back into his own
country:
There are birds singing in the trees,

This story Is matched by a true one
Of u New England Oman who spent

yet Mr. Reds salary would not have

Poor men are out OF place as minis
tiers and ambassadors Of the United

bear the expense. The United States
pays a ridleulously small salary for this
purpose in comparison with the salaries
paid by other nations, and Uncle Sam

WILLIAM WALDORF AsToR set the pace
In matters Of entertained, which only
men Of wealth can follow and which
our minister must follow in order to
meet the expectations of the Italian
people and Americans residents in
Rome.
The experience Of Mr.. JOHN B. Stall
10, appointed during Mr.. CLEvELAND's
first term, was particularly unpleasant,
because he had no private means and
tried 10 live within his income. 1t is
no secret that Governor PORTER, Of H.
diana, suffered similar Inconvenience,
which were doubtless the real reason
Of his resignation. Mr.. PoTTRR, his
successor, also felt the lack of wealth
to maintain his position. Mr.. VAN
ALIEN will not suffer from a lack of
wealth. He is a liberal and talented
entertainer, and he will be a success, at
least, in Rome.
