Medals For Every One at Chicago.

John Boyd Thacher has installed bis
bureau of awards. The principle which
will govern the giving of awards is the
merit of the exhibit as compared with a
fixed standard of excellence and not with
the exhibit of a competitor.
There is pleasant prospect ahead for
exhibitors, inasmuch as the number Of
medals will be in excess of 10000. The
chances, therefore, are that any man
who has good exhibit will get medal.
The medal will be of bronze only, and
not, as under the old system, of gold and
silver and bronze, representing three de-
grees of merit. Under the law the num-
ber was not to exceed $4,000. The di-
ameter, however, has been increased to
81 inches, which will probably cut the
number of medals down to about 30, 900.
Under the law it will be impossible to
counterfeit them without incurring a
heavy penalty.
August st. Gaudens has made the de-
sign, and the front of the medal has al
ready been made in the government
mint. The front represents Columbus
in the foreground. He is shown in full
figure, with outstretched hands, standing
in a reverential and awestruck attitude
One foot is on the shore and the other
on small boat. The diploma which
will accompany the medal has an elab-
crate allegorical design about the bor-
der, leaving space in the center for the
statement of excellence of the exhibit

there is to show for it. There appears
to be about as much red and black

had better be called off and expenses re-
duced. There are not now 60 many In

Two Views of the Nations Danger.

The Rev. DR.. Patton spoke sorrowfully
in his baccalaureate sermon before the
graduating class of Princeton university.
He thinks that religion is losing its power
over the people. Here is one Of his re-
marks: ,f,,i.,
"The danger to this nation is not i'm
migration, or the export of gold, or
wrong ideas of the tariff, or state social
ism. Our danger is that we are losing
sight of the great heritage Of the Puri-
tans-faith in manhood, allegiance to
conscience, belief in God"
We cannot back up this statement. 1t
does not agree with our own observa-
ton. There are yet faith and conscience
in the community, and these things are
not heritage of Puritanism alone. Re
igion has not been undermined. Moral
ity is a power in the life of mankind. It
seems to us that there are abundant hope
and full assurance for all those who are
themselves strong in the faith.-New
York Sun.

A Word About the Russet SHOES.


A fashion writer in a morning con-
.emporary asks:
What is the attraction which brown
leather boots seem 10 possess for both
men and women, young and old? This
year they have made their appearance
not only considerably earlier than usual,
but also in larger numbers than ever be-
fore. Some declare that they are more
comfortable, but experience hardly bears
out that impression. A brown boot can
never be SO pliable and so easy as one of
black leather, moreover. the brown boot
is distinctly less becoming than the
black"
The writer Of this must have had a
singular experience with brown leather.
The russell shoes are worn by most peo-
pie because they are softer and more
pliable, and above all because the pores
of the leather are not tightly closed as
they are in patent leather, and in all
black leather that is subjected to polish
backing. The difference in comfort in
hot weather between o ventilating russet
shoe and impervious patent leather is
quickly obvious when O change is made
from one to the other. The summer dress
of Americans has tended to comfort in
all respects during the last few years,
and no two innovations have added more
to mitigation Of hot weather discom-
fort than the brown shoe and the un-
starched fine cotton shirts for gentlemen.

Recoil of Mr. o,Brien,s Practical Jokes.

Thomas OBrien, a clerk in the grocery
store of Charles l.. Glover of Norwalk,
tried to play practical joke on his as
sociates, and it nearly resulted fatally to
himself. He went to the cellar, fastened
a rope about his neck and over rafter
and stood on hogshead. Loud groans
brought the people down stairs, when
O'Brien jumped off the hogshead. He
intended to alight on soapbox, but &C
cidentally kicked the box over, and his
body hung free from the rafter. He was
strangling to death when he was cut
down with an ak. His neck is cut by the
rope, and he is considerably injured, but
will recover.-Hartford Courant.
