LIVE STOCK EXHIBITS.
Completed Lists for the Horse and Cattle
Contest.

contest.
The lists for the horse and cattle con-
tests at the fair have now been made
up, and IL is settled that one OF the in
cidents of the Columbian exposition
will be the largest live stock exhibition
ever held. State fair shows will be in
significant in comparison, for the APP
proaching show at Jackson park will
be six times as big as the largest of
them.
All the famous breeds of Europe
and America will be represented. Amer
leans will take the lead in number. but
there will be notable exhibits under
the patronage OF the governments of
Russia and Germany. Sixty horses Sc
lected from various parts OF Germany
are now feeding on Iowa grass ard
grain. under the care OF experienced
horsemen. Tho stud of Grand Duke
Dmitry Constantinowich, of Russia. is
now on the way west from New York,
and will be acclimatized in Indiana
under the care of Russian farmers
This exhibit is under charge of Guard
Capt of Cavalry +. n. Ismailof, who
was detailed from the imperial army
for this duty.
In this stable are three mares and
eight stations, representing different
lines of Orloff trotters from two to
eighteen years old. four stations of
different kinds Of Orloff saddle horses
from three 20 eleven years of age, two
pure Arabian acclimatized stations
three and four years old, and a Russian
light draught stallion FIVE years old.
II is said that this display will attract
many Russians to the fair from all
parts Of America.
Among the other notable features
will be a stable of French trotters.
These will be the first horses of their
kind ever exhibited in America, aad
the Columbian exposition is the first
fair 70 recognize them as a class. The
French animals are peculiar in that
they are loug-distance racers, often
trotting two. three and four miles. IL
is urged that'cross breeding with them
will give the American trotter more
bottom.
The magnitude Of these live stock ex-
hibitions may be inferred from the
premiums offered. These will aQQre-
gate one hundred and fifty thousand
dollars, many times as much as ever Of
fered at any fair before. This will be
the first fair TO award cash premiums,
and the agricultural department is the
only one in this exposition 10 offer
money prizes.

A sImuitaneous Reply.

A six-year-old son of family living
on Seventy-second street was informed
the other morning that the rector was
expected TO call in the afternoon.
After luncheon his mother began TO
coach him in his catechism. his name,
age, etc.
"He will ask you your name she
said, land you must tell him frankie
Jones' Then he will ask YOU your age,
and you must say six years old in
June lie will ask you who made you,
and you must soy God; and thcAl il he
asks what He made you OF you must
say dirt"
The rector came, and, srrc enough,
he asked the little fellow his namc,
whereupon frankie shouted: FRANKIE
Jones, six years old in June, God, dirtl"
all in ono breath.-N. Y. Times

The solution III this problem Of ex-
cessivo housekeeping is perfectly OBJ
vioua What we want In our homes Il
n much simpler style Of housekeeping,
and we shall have IL when we learn the
great lesson-which Is the only remedy
for this matter--to live. more for COM
fort than for ostentation; 10 live less
for show and more for substance.
There is where the evil lies. We live
too much for others; too much for tho
world. We fix up our homes altogether
too much with the idea of either what
the outside world will say of them OF
10 outdo our neighbors When we
reach that point where we shall dismiss
n little Of that ostentation that is now
40 prevalent in many Of our homes, we
shall not only reach happier state for
ourselves, but we will remove one-half of
the nervous ailments from which our
women are now suffering. II is all
well enough 10 have a pretty home
with rooms filed with dainty bric-a-
bac, mirrors, cushions and ornaments
of every sort But some one must take
care of these things, and generally IL
is not the help we may employ. so far
as the ornamentation Of our homes is
concerned we arc overriding IL in the
majority Of cases anyway. A room
tasteful Ia its rich simplicity is the ex-
ception rather than the rule. The
greater part OF our drawing-rooms re-
semble museums moro than anything
else, and q man Is never so comfortable
as when he is out of them. Between
kicking something over, or knocking
something off, the average mans mind
is anything but a tranquil one in the
typical modern drawing-room.- Ladies'

COUNCIL LODGE OF THE SIX NATIONS

The Esquimnux, for instance, away
up in their little corner near the north
gate attract but small portion of the
crowd that enters the fair grounds
daily. True, the extra charge of twen-
ty-five cents for admission into their
inclosure deters many from visiting
these queer little people. but were
they more advantageously situated
their receipts would undoubtedly be
greatly increased.
Another somewhat isolated exhibit.
which is well worth the attention of
every visitor at the fair, is the Indian
colony on the lake shore near the For
estry building, in the southeastern por-
ton Of the grounds. Here. dwelling in
a state as nearly copied after the man
ner of their forefathers as circum-
stances and surroundings will permit,
are representatives Of the six tribes OF

Common interest naturally centers
in the main buildings of the fair and
these are constantly thronged with
eager sightseers. People get in among
the wonderful collections Of the arts

come upon the magnificent displays of
mans skill and ingenuity that their
time slips away, and they suddenly
awaken TO the consciousness that IL
they are TO see all OF the fair they

along from one point 10 another, and
this way lose much of superior interest.

exhibit in the same building. There is
seen an old cedar log that had fallen TO

grown a spruce tree. BY counting the
angular rings Of the spruce IL Is found
TO be over two hundred years old. and
the cedar trunk that lay dead under
this growing tree all these years IS still

"A Lack of Confidence"

The people have been told time and
again that the cause of the present f.
Enancial troubles is ga lack of conf
dence." Then eastern banks, after
they had raided the treasury gold, and
concluded to bring ON financial
squeeze by locking up their currency,
gave it out that the trouble was occas-
toned by ga lack of confidence" Then
the goldbug organs took it up, and
told the people that there was a great
s'lack of confidence" This was dinned
in the ears of the public until finally a
few people did lose confidence" and
drew their money out of the banks.
They drew it out, kept it a little while
and then put it back. But still the
Banks declared that there was .sa lack
of confidence"
And they keep up the cry. There is
a great ''lack of confidence and this
is the excuse the banks give for hoard
ing the money they have on deposit.
But where is the ..lack of conf
dence?" Is it with the people? We
think not. The deposits of the New
York bank are some $50, OOO. 900 in ex-
cess of the legal reserve of 25 per cent,
and the deposit accounts of all other
banks will show a proportionate in
crease. Would people put their money
in the banks if they lacked confidence?
To ask the question is to answer it.
They would withdraw their money and
hoard It.
Altogether, we think the people have
made it perfectly clear that there Is no
lack of confidence so far as they are
concerned. That is certain. But still
