The Great Event

A touch from the hand Of General
Grant. then President Grant, started all
the machinery and opened the Centen-
NAL exposition at Philadelphia in 1875.
President Grants hand set in motion the
huge Corliss engine, 1,40O horsepower,
weight 700 tons, which furnished power
to practically all the machinery at the
worlds fair Of 1876 The difference be-
tween the exposition of 1876 and that
which opened at Chicago May /, 1898, is
shown by nothing more wildly than by
the fact that in Machinery hall at the
Columbian exposition 60 huge engines
are required to afford the necessary pow
er. The Columbian exposition is not 60
times as large as that of 1876, though it
is indeed several times as extensive as
that was, The great addition to the
steam power is required on account Of
the electric lighting apparatus. How
far we have advanced since 1876 may be
understood from the fact that there was
not an electric light used for general il
Elimination at the Centennial exposition.
Men were in doubt at that time whether
the electric light could ever be generally
utilized on account of its cost. At the
Columbian fair there will be 5000 cleo
trio arc lights and 100000 incandescent
lights. For the incandescent lights alone
II engines will be necessary. The largest
one will give power for 10000 incandes-
cent lights and is of 1000 horsepower,
nearly half as large again as the 1876
Corliss, which furnished power to the
whole exposition.
The scene at the opening of the fair
was as magnificent as the eye ever be-
held in town or city. All that the skill
Of man could do to make the occasion
imposing had been done. The great
Theodore Thomas waved his baton, and
an orchestra of 100 instruments, a chorus
Of $50 voices, filled the air with volume
of sound that rippled even the waters Of
the lake. That lake itself was grandest
of all in the vista which spread before the
eye at the ceremonial exercises. This
will be the greatest worlds fair that
ever was--in the greatest country upon
the globe. No worlds exposition has
had before the advantage of so magnif-
cent site; so much room; none has had
that glorious inland sea to refresh the
weary visitor with it's breath after his
sightseeing
The great fair is open. Go and see it.

THE NEW sUPERINTENDENT

Mr.. c. Z. Reyes, the gentleman who
was elected at the board meeting last
evening to have charge OF the Guy
schools for the coming year, is thor
oughly qualified instructor, having had
a long experience in teaching and being
an enthusiastic student of his chosen
profession. 1t would be difficult for
any one to receive higher recommended
tons as an instructor than Mr.. Keyes,
among whose papers were letters Of
recommendation from the entire faculty
of Marietta college. Ohio, Of which he
is q graduate, aud which has conferred
upon him the degree of master OF arts,
also from Governor Foraker, General
Eaton and other prominent men in
Ohio, as we'll as from the directors and
superintendent Of the schools of Port
land, Or, where he is at present en-
gagged in teaching. Mr. Reyes election
TO the position Of superintendent OF the
Fairhaven schools is matter of con-
graduation to the residents of this city
and speaks well for the members of the
board, who have shown commendable
zeal in securing the services of such a
competent and qualified officer. Mr.
Keyes was in the city during a part of
last week and made a most favorable
impression upon those who had the
pleasure of meeting him.
OF the teachers elected to assist the
new Superintendent some are already
known to the residents of the city as
being in every respect competent for
the discharge of the duties of this posi-
ton, having been in the city's employ
for the past year, while those who have
been chosen from other cities come 50

belief that the important interests in

ously cared for by the board. Miss
Mcclure, who succeeds Miss Alexander
in the principalship of the Fourteenth
street school, is well known to a num-
Der Of the residents Of Fairhaven, who
speak in high praise Of her ability as a
teacher and qualifications for the posi-
ton to which she has been elected. II
is no disparagement to the other teach
ers of the city to say that Miss Nc
CURE succeeds one of the most popular
instructors ever employed in the Fair
haven schooIs and who would have
been gladly retained in her present po-
sition had her health permitted a
further continuance Of school life. Miss
Alexander has shown a loyal devotion
to the welfare Of her pupils and the in
terests entrusted to her. and in return

those with whom she has been assO-
ciated during her residence in Fair

SANITARY Day"

The fine old state Of Pennsylvania oc-
casionally presents to the public new
idea worthy of all consideration. OF this
sort is the proposal for an annual "Sani-
tary day." which has been laid before
her legislature The bill which has been
presented asks that the first Thursday in
May every year be designated as Sani-
tary day, and that it be devoted to Civ
ing the public instructions in hygenic
science and observances.
There might well be a sanitary day in
every state once a year at least, on the
principle of the man who always took a
bath once a year whether he needed it or
not. Such a holiday would go well with
Arbor day. 1t ought to come with the
beginning of hot weather so that all our
people in country and city might be i'm
pressed with the necessity Of thoroughly
disinfecting and cleaning up all their
premises inside and out. The school
children are the ones among whom the
glorious tree planting and tree preserv-
ing movement began. II should be the
same with Sanitary day. The school
children are the hope Of this nation.
Once they are thoroughly aroused TO the
benefits of sanitary science they will do
the rest in their homes and in their out
side surroundings. They will teach their
parents how air and drinking water may
spread death.
Rollo Russell in his book on epidemic
plaques and fevers complains Of the in
ttruction in our public schools. He says
we compel children to 20 to school and
learn the history of worthless old kings
about whom nobody cares in the least,
while we neglect to instruct them in
matters that pertain vitality to their own
present and future His complaint is
just. The public schools ought to be
the great disseminators Of sanitary and
hygienic science. Ancient history. even
curious and abstruse mathematical puz-
zles, might well give way TO practical in
struction in how 10 keep clean, moral
and healthy. All this is part Of the
chad's education, and the most impor-
tant part. Once a child gets broken in
to the knowledge Of how delightful a
clean skin, fresh air and well brushed
teeth are, he will never again be willing

Now that the Infanta Eulalie has
definitely assured herself that, her SEN
sibilities are not likely to be wounded
in the course Of a tour in America, it is
to be supposed that every one will
breathe more freely, says the Pioneer
Press. Everyone, that is, excepting
the givers of the ball in New York,
which is to take place in her honor the
next week. 1t is just possible that
rumor has exaggerated the predica-
ment in which these hospitable people
found themselves, and that some
way will be found to evade
the necessity of giving the
Infanta and her suite a separate supper
room from that occupied by her hosts
at the ball. And even il evasion be
impossible, and it be actually necessary
that this distinction of rank be scrupu-
lousy preserved, why need It trouble
the American entertainers? 1t is a

How completely anybody in this coun-
try can become anything he or she
chooses is shiningly illustrated in the
case of Lucy Larcom. For 10 years of her
early life she worked as an ordinary fac
tory girl in cotton mill. Nothing in the
way of humble labor in city or country
was unfamiliar to her, from milking
COWS TO home dressmaking. Born and
reared thus in the school of poverty and
toll, Lucy Larcom nevertheless lived to
become thoroughly educated, refined,
cultivated woman and one Of the most
famous feminine poets of her country in
the nineteenth century. The verses en-
titled. Hannah Binding Shoes" will
live as long as anything Whittier OF Rus
sell Lowell ever wrote Miss Larcom
accomplished so much simply by making
the most Of the time she had and wait
ing, It is a lesson that all may well take
TO heart. All have not Lucy Larcom's ex.
ceptional gifts. but all can make noble
success of their lives in some direction.
The worlds gates are wide open before
us all. We have only to choose our path
and follow it,

Depression In Australasia.

1t is to be hoped that many year will
elapse before such a season Of financial
depression overtakes the United States
as that from which the British Australia
sian colonies are now suffering. 1t is I'M
paralleled in the history of Australasia.
The cause Of the hard times is twofold,
according to Mr.. Matthew Marshall in
the New York Sun. It is given in the
paragraph below, and labor organiza-
tons may be interested to know that he
attributes the depression partly to work
ingmen's strikes. He says:
The failure Of the English, Scottish and Aus
tralian bank, announced here on Wednesday.
affects US only indirectly through London,
where It is likely to intensity the existing feel
Ing Of depression and thus to delay the revival
OF commercial and financial activity In Great
Britain for which many enterprises on this side
Of the Atlantic are waiting. The failure Ike
that Of the Commercial Bank Of Australia week
before last, IS one Of a series of similar catas-
trophies which began with the collapse OF the
great land speculations throughout the Austria
tasian federation IN 1850 and which have been
more or less the consequence Of that collapse
and Of the accompanying strikes Of 1890 and
1891.
These strikes started in Queensland among
the union sheep shearers and were taken mp
by the union dock laborers and union seamen
Of Sydney. with the result Of completely para
lying the shipping business Of that port. The
union bakers. union bootmakers and union
brickmakers in Victoria next struck on their
own account and after them the workmen OF
I the various building trades. The result was
almost a complete suspension Of business
everywhere Ia Australasia for nearly year
and the federation has evidently not yet re-
covered from the injury thus caused TO its pros
perity. The shipping strikes at Hull and othei
British ports now in progress are ominous Of
similar disaster 20 Great Britain and cannot
but have an unfavorable effect upon thai
country's trade.

The Nelson Tribune thinks that the
press of Canada is never fair when
dealing with matters political of the
United States. Conservative papers
and reform papers alike vie in I'M
friendly criticism Of every act Of the
Republican party, and no leading
member of that party was ever given a
word of praise for a political act. On
the other hand, the Democratic party
is always highly eulogized, and its
leaders do nothing wrong, even when
they fail to keep their pledges to the
country.

The fact that the John Bull, the first
locomotive engine ever brought to Amer
lea, can still make 30 miles an hour is
conclusive that there have not been such
great improvements in railroad engines
after all. The John Bull can still draw
train as fast as the average of trains in
this country travel, although half CEN
fury has elapsed since it made its first
trip. The improvement has been mainly
in roadbeds and cars and in the increased
size and power Of the engines, not their
speed

The staying qualities Of the rainy
weather, besides being commendable
on general principles, are giving added
emphasis to the road question. The

flood tide of evaporation will soon

The Saturday HalfHoIiday,

The movement in favor of Saturday
afternoon as a half holiday is growing
in the older states, although it would be
hard for it to get foothold as yet in
the new states of the west where day
light is not long enough to do the work
that must be done. and that quickly.
New York, New Jersey and few other
states have laws which name half holi-
days The Saturday half holiday is,
however, left partly discretionary. In
the largest cities of the older states it is
becoming a common practice now vol
unfairly to close dry goods stores and
many other business houses at noon Of
Saturday from the middle of June to the
middle of September. Sometimes this
is the case only during the months of
July and August. 1t can be done very
well in the great cities, for midsummer
is the duIlest business time of year with
them.
The Saturday half holiday gives clerks
and all who work long hours time to get
a breath Of fresh air and get themselves
in good order for Sunday. Employers
are really encouraging it wherever it is
at all practicable, and the considerable
among them are the last ones to oppose
the Saturday half holiday. What is lost
in time is more than gained in the phys
ical and mental vigor given by the little
breathing spell.
