The Review of ReUie,0s for the month
of June is a number which nobody who
intends to go to theWorld's Fair at any
time can we'll afford to be without How
ever attractive the other departments may
be, it will be true OF this Worlds Fair, as
1t was of the Centennial in 1876, that the
great majority of the visitors will derive
more pleasure from the pictures in the
Art Department than from anything else.
The ReUieao of Reviews sent as its special
representative to Chicago, in May, Mr..
Ernest Knaufft, well known art teacher
OF New York, who is also a writer upon
art subjects and who is known through
out the country as very successful and
sympathetic director of the art studies
at Chautauqua from summer te summer.
Mr.. Knaufft has prepared for the Reuie,O
of ReUieaCs an extended and discrimina-
ting article telling in straightforward
way whatsare the merits and striking fea-
lures OF each portion of the art exhibit,
and his article is illustrated with outline
pen sketches intended as memoranda OF
the principal pictures. The article serves
as an excellent general guide to the art
department ard as an auxiliary to the
more formal catalogue which gives the
names and numbers of the pictures
An especially timely feature of the
number is an article on transit facilities
in Chicago and on the fair grounds. l,
has been specially prepared for the Re,
vieao of Reviews by Mr.. Henry II. Wind.
sor, who is editor Of the Street Rdilt0as
Review, OF Chicago, and is thoroughly
convcrsant with the facts. The charac.
ter sketch OF this number of the Reuieu
ia of Sir Frederick Leighton, the president
of the Royal Academy and the 0flcla
head Of English art. 1t is illustrated
with fine reproductions of Sir Frederick g
most famous works. The article is by
one Of the editors of the Pail Mall Gaz
cite, who is an especially competent writ
err on art subjects. The Leading Articles
in this number of the ReuieW have a
wide range of interest, aud the editorial
department, the Progress of the World
will attract attention from its lucid dis
cusslen of the business and monetary sit
uaiion in the United States ami other
countries. This number Of the Review Is
illustrated with perhaps even more pict
urcs than usual, the number exceeding
one hundred. The ReuieaO Of Reviews
succeeds each month in securing the yer.
dict indispensable" from great num-
Der of its exchanges and from thousands
OF its readers, and this June number, so
entertaining on the one hand and SO full
of convenient refere.ce compilation on
the other, certainly merits that verdict of
indispensable" as well as any of its pre-
dccessors.

The creek road leading from this city
to Mt. Airy is one of the best country
roads in this vicinity and reflects much
credit on the overseer, Mr.. Philander Ii.
Hartwell, for the manner in which 1t Is
kept. Some parties however, are very
careless in depositing garbage in close
proximity to 1t, and in consequence, old
paper, broken boards and barrel hoops
with nails in, are scattered promiscuously
along the road, making it both unsighlly
and dangerous. People who deposit this
garbage sheuld be prosecuted.

Belgium,s FIRST Breach Of Promise

For the first time in the history of Bel
gium the principle of monetary COM
pensation for breach of promise of mar
riage has just been established. The
judges of the court of appeal were
grudging in their admission of the priD-
ciple, but there is no doubt as to the
meaning of their Judgment. The test
case was that of young woman who,
through her father, brought breach of
promise action against young Dutch
man residing in Brussels. The father
obtained verdict for $500 francs dam
ages, plus 5000 francs for what was
called moral prejudice" In their judg-
ment the judges said that either of the
two parties to an engagement might
back out Of it, although not at the last
moment In the case they had to con-
slider the wedding day had actually been
fixed.-London News.

Ex-President Harrison received his last

Iary Of the treasury and sent over TO the
White House by messenger. March

sued by the treasury department in the
same way, representing his pay for serv-
ice as president of the United States for
the first three days of March and closing
his account with the government.
Notwithstanding the fact that he was
president up to noon the 4th of March.
General Harrison received no pay what
ever for his services ON that day for the
reason that the federal accounting Off
GERS do not recognize divisions of day
In the settlement of accounts of salaries.
Each incumbent of the Office of president
is paid the salary of that Office beginning
with the day of his inauguration, so that
he gains in the beginning of his term
what he loses in the end.
This arrangement was followed at the
previous change of administration, and
at its predecessor, and is so fair and rea-
sonable that it is not likely to be changed
According to the treasury computation,
the presidential salary of $50, 600 a year
is at the rate of $13S.sSS a day.

gun used on warship or at military post
and see how it climbs up into the thou

fagships burns 80 pounds of powder, and
the guns used at land stations in firing
salutes range down the scale to as low as
two pounds. Taking it altogether and
considering the matter at a glance, it is
safe to say that more powder was con-

Renting Diamonds In Chicago.

A jeweler told me the other day that
he rented out thousands of dollars worth
of diamonds for the charity ball; that he
not only did it this year, but that he did
so every year, and for all other great oc-
casions; that many rich ladies preferred
to rent diamonds for certain times rather
than to own them and have the respon-
sibility Of them all the time; that others
could not afford to buy them. and by
renting them could make a fine appear
ance with not many being the wiser;
that his prices for renting varied accord
