A FINANCIAL SUCCESS.
The Attendance at the Wotld's Fair VIII
Reach twenty-five Millions.

The Attendance ut the WOtld's' Fair VIII
Reach twenty-five Millions,
Esv Yo's EreRtl0 Post
In spite OF the reports Of light Sunday
attendance, it ia stoutly asserted that
the Worlds Fair will be financial sue
cess. The average daily attendance in
May was 10000 and in June s9,0S6, or
$4,000 in round numbers, Not until
August 20 did the paid admissions at
the Centennial Exposition reach 10000
This total became commonplace at Chi
cago long before the fair was two months
old. During May and June the attend
aaee at Philadelphia was l,074.848; at
Chicago it was 8, 72l, l40. within striking
distance Of 100000 The prediction 10
made by friends Of the fair that the
paid admissions will reach %, 000, 900 by
the time the gates close. At Paris the
900. The difference in the drawing
powers Of the Philadelphia and Chicago
expeditions Ia indicated by the Fourth
OF July attendance. At Philadelphia II
was $4,000; at Chicago about $4,000.
An expert in tigureswh has been max
ing calculations says; "The average
daily attendance at Jackson Park dur
ing this month should, according to the
laws Of probabilities, 90 as high as
10000 or q little higher, and give q
grand total for the month Of about
S,500OQO. II this result be reached,
there will be nothing in the way Of
realizing the coveted twenty-five
millions during the summer" He
says further; 1.-THE last three
months will be the greatest nonths
in the history OF the exposition, as
they have been in every exposition yet
held. These are the three months
which mark the mighty outpourings Of
ali classes OF people, at Chicago 90 far
we have had an attendance from this
city, probably about one.halt the total,
and the remainder has been made up
chiefly by the visitors who have come
from towns and citiesround about or from
the East, These are the trades, bust
ness, manufacturing, professional peo-
pie OF the country. This class will con-
tinue coming all the year. To their
numbers will be added, in August and
September, thousands upon thousands
OF the people who are on the farm or
near 1t, and whocannot get away in this
harvest time. Then the boom will be-
gin. Then the railroads will run fifty
excursion trains where they now run

seuEes without increasing its equip
msnt.
The fair management was confident
that on Sundays there would be a
mighty rush to the fair and that the
Golfers would swell accordingly, Nor
was it thought that any considerable
number OF persona would cut the show
entirely because OF Sunday opening
The management is now seen to have
misiudged the question on both sides.
Attendance on Sunday is the smallest
of any day in the week, smaller than
the most determined opponent Of Sun
day opening would have dared to pre-
dict. It may be said thst the closing
OF many exhibits on Sunday has much
to do with the small attendance. This
is hardly probable; but be it as 1t may,
this is q feature Of Sunday opening
which cannot DO changed. Exhibitors
cannot be compelled to expose their
exhibits on Sunday,
The IntsrOcean'S two points are we'll
taken. II the railroads will raise their
embargo on travel, and II the fair man
agement will acknowledge its error by
confirming the fair to a weekday show
there is every reason to believe that the
results will be gratifying to the car
riers, to the fair management and to
all who take pride in the success Of the
greatest achievement of international
expeditions.

Trouble in Jericho.

A youth who had tarried too long in
the tap-room sailed into church in
Jericho, Long Island, threw down the
sexton and danced on him, rushed to
the pulpit and pounded tho preacher,
broke the face Of deacon who came up
as re,inforcements, and pounded the con-
gregation with the Bible, the hymn
books and such other things us he could
find about the pulpit
1t is possible that this talented youth
may tarry in tho Jail of Jericho until his
beard be grownand his church manners
improved. His parents are. leading
lights OF the congregation. 1t may be
that in earlier days they spared the rod
and allowed the youngstor to set his
own pace.

A Jersey Divorce Case.

Something rather odd has just came
to pass in New Jersey, Goaded by a
mischief, maker, a husband sued for
divorce Then his eyes were opened
and he advised his attorney to let the
matter drop. Once more it was hap

comfortably until Fourth of July
bomb dropped, The decree Of divorce
had been granted.
The husband, being man Of rssour-
ces, sought minister and had the old
knot tied again, as it was twenty years
before whom they were young lovers.

heavy villain caught SO as to be photo

The Railroad from Over tho River
\ IL

The Railroad from Over tho River.
Under objection the ordinance for the
admission Of the electrical railway from
overthe river goes over until next Tues
day night. Even this will not give time
enough to got the matter in such shape
as 1t should be in before the council
will be justified in taking favorable ac-
ton.
DESTROYS as the people Of Wheeling
arc for all tho local transit facilities
they can get, there are features Of this
proposition which tho public does not
understand and on which council should
demand moro light.
The original proposition included
line tor the accommodation Of East
Wheeling and those having occasion to
20 to that section. The tracks were 10
run out Fifteenth street to Mcoolloch
andthenceto point opposite Eleventh.
For some reason this feature has been
dropped, and SO far as this side of the
river is concerned there is to be another
road crossing the Island, where there Is
already Communication; and another
loop in the city proper running around
the present Fourteenth street loop and
occupying streets for the most part hav-
ing the additional incambraace Of Bal.
timore & Ohio tracks.
AS the proposition now stands the
gain to Wheeling 10 not apparent. on
the other hand it is hard to believe
that capital serioualy contemplates
such an investment. With East Wheel.
ing included there would probably be
profit in the venture, That populous
locality cut of, the business PROPOSE
ton for investors takes on different
aspect and tits reasonable to suppose
that investors will take into considera.
ton the whole possible field OF opera
ton aud theprobable results.
II there is to be no substantial gain
to Wheeling by giving over important
highways to railroad company, and il
this public sacrifice is not likely in the
end to be attractive to capitalists, Coun-
Gil may we'll consider whether there is
not something back of it all which de-
mands better understanding before
tho city is committed to any arrange.
ment. The contract with the Wheeling
4 Belmont Bridge Company is con.
ditional and therefore is not to be con-
atrued as earnest Of intention to build
the road.
While council is considering tho pro.
ject 1t should weigh carefully the mat
ter OF the life Of the grant. On the
other side OF the river this company
has twenty-five year grant Here it
insists on at least fifty years and wanted
it in perpetuity. II twenty-five years
were accepted in Ohio, why not in West
Virginia? Because council unwisely
gave too much to one company II does
not follow that 1t should repeat the
same or any folly in favor OF the next
conner and OF all other corners.
Wheeling is SO peculiar in ita phys.
ical characteristics that its highways
need to be guarded with more than
ordinary care, and this duty falls on
council.

AN INJURED ORATOR.
His Ardor Cooled With a Brick on
the Sand Lot

William j. Rispin is an orator. That is
admitted literally by his friends. To
emulate Denis Kearney is dearer to him
than tobacco itself. But then William is
perhaps trile too radical in his views,
and the worst of it all is he sees no harm
In giving expression to them.
Thet is Williams really weak point
weaker by far than his head, as develop
ments will show.
1t is the rock on which he is wrecked,
so to speak, provided there are no bricks
around.
When RisDin has pet idea to evolve he
must find an audience. and the sand lot at
Seventh and Mission streets being con-
veDieDt he drifts in behind the fence to
talk. Last evening the epiri, moved him.
He struck an attitude on a box and spoke
to the unemployed without injuring the
box. Something In his speech was often
sive, which was made known in very
forrible fashion by ore of the army.
whats that?" asked a voice in the
crowd.
Rispin stoutly reiterated his words, when
stars suddenly appeared. He came to
consciousness in the Receiving Hospital
when DR.. Coffman treated him for a
laeerated head. the result of violent con-
tact with brick
