Compelled by artificial demands the
treasury threw out feelers for gold.
Offers Of large amounts of the yellow

course these offers came from bankers,
and bankers are essentially gold bugs as
"A rule. but if each and every one of these

TO DEFEND EVE.

The ladies who have the matter in
charge have not yet decided upon an
emblem to decorate the main entrance
of the Woman's Building at the worlds
fair. Ideas have been asked for, and a
writer signing herself "Mary Belle Free
ley" advocates the apple as the best ard
most appropriate emblem that could be
selected. Her reasons are pungent and
interesting. She says:
What shall the emblem be, what shall
the emblem be-" is the question that is
agitaling the minds of the dear girls,
and ] would say,
The apple, the apples the thing,
Now is the time to indorse, applaud
and glorify Eve. the first brave and reck-
less champion of intelligence; the woman
who scorned sloth and Incidence, naked
ness and deadening inactivity; whose
heart was thrilled with the ambition TO
''be as gods. knowing good and evil;'
whose eyes were attracted by the beauty
Of the apple, blushing and swinging
gayly in the sunshine and the breezes,
and whose innate and divine desire to
"tind out all about it, even tho hell
yawned at her feet led her to pluck the
apple and defy a command that was "a
menace TO intelligence and IA resistless
temptation TO all the fine and high attri.
butes Of her nature.
But for Eve the mon would be t. this
day, ! suppose, idle. naked. suuburned

rescued the world from sloth, inditfer-
cnce and stupidity. and lifted the human
race TO a level a little lower than the
angels 1T is time that the good and
bright women of this age rescued the
name of Eve from the mirc Of contempt.
scorn and ridicule, and the Worlds fair
is the place to PIT her on the pinnacle
of admiration. cOmmendation and APP
proval. So let us openly and above
board indorse Eve and take the apple as
the emblem of tbe Woman's building,
for it means something. it means every
thing.
This lady is an innoyator, to say the
least, and there are really good grounds
for her findings. There is no telling
what the Creator had in store for Eve
and her successors in the event Of total
abstinence from the fruit of the tree of
knowledge, bat the results Of partaking
the fruit are before us-at least some
Of them-and there can be no question
that these are, in the main, decidedly
creditable. Many great queens, great
writers, great authors, dazzling beauties
and plragons Of goodness are of EYES
descendants, while thousands of millions
Of them have been the perfect wives and
Of men throughout the ages, If
Eve was curious aud frivolous il is not
strange that some Of her daughters
should be 50. They all possess enough
virtues 70 more than offset their faults.
On tie whole. however, it is not likely
Mary Belle Erccloy's emblem will
be adopted. The men might not like it.

MONTANA At THE FAIR.

They will certainly be looking for us
at the fair if many Of our people are
giving them such glowing accounts OF
our cash as the following. quoted from
the Chicago Inter Ocean by the New
York Evening Post:
Judge James Barnes of Great Falls,
Mont, said yesterday: "All Montana is
coming to the fair. Rich and poor. high
and low, will be there. | live in Great
Falls. Near there is the small mining
town of Neihart. with about 100 inhabi-
tants: 300 of them are mining hands.
They generally spend their money as
fast as they make it, and trust to luck
that no rainy day will befall them. But
they wanted to come to the fair. They
could not do this if thy continued
spending their money as usual. One of
the leading wOrkmcn made the PROPOSE
ton that all the miners who wished to
come to The fair lay apart a certain portion
of their weekly wages to he deposited in
the First National bank of Ncihart until
such time as il was required to be used
to come 30 the exposition.

the boys are saving up in this style, and
the Chicago crooks are going 20 be on

ter, .ure. But perhaps Judge Barnes
was Just talking up the country?
