terday. "I am very much interested
in the schools Of the city, and for that
reason had sometimes thought that |
might accept the office, but Just now
my personal interests will not allow OF
my running, and | intend contenting
myself with helping some one secure

strolled into the Free Reading Room
and indeed il is with pleasure that ne
congratulates the public on the accom-

in this room. Besides the library, the
standard periodicals and the magazines
there are on file the Chicago Daily
Tribune. On the staff of this paper
are special artists and correspondents
whose sole duties are to turn loose their
talents and genius and describe our
$50, 900, 900 exposition for those who are
unable to visit it. Others who can
spare the time 10 read it will be bene-
flied by saving money and knowing
the ropes when they arrive at Chicago.
There Is also the Louisville Courier
Journal, the pride of the Southern
Democracy The classical mugwump
organ, the Springfield Republican, Of
Massachusetts; the Globe Democrat of
st. Louis, the Toledo Blade, the pride
Of American journalism, the New York
Sun, and that vigorous monument to
American patriotism, the New York
Tribune. Where public spirit supplies
such papers as these there il no excuse
for the citizens Of Fairhaven who are
not enlightened on the questions of the
day.

astically exclaimed Mr.. Applepate,
"seventeen parishes in this district,
over twice as many as last year, and
they are all occupied by able ministers.
In a few weeks we expect that some
arrangement will be made whereby
the orthodox Episcopalians of your
city will be addressed at least once on
Sunday
Colonel N. w. Christopher returned
Monday night from trip to British
Columbia, which place Of late has alb
sorbed much of his attention. There

character Of the colonel, but neyerthe-
