colors of dress and scarf aud hair-rlb-

aud swift muttcring lips with the gurish

knew II the thing was true, but Julie,
the mlllers wife, seemed rather TO plume
herself that she had made a stir i'm her
little world. Yet the curious habitantS

young man went he lost not one Of his

The inhabitants Of Pontiac used TO say

was strange scene. The mother of

FAVOR THESCHEME
To Keep the Fair Open Next
Summer.
WHAT Is SAID AT WASHINGTON.

The buildings too Beautiful to BE Torn
Down So Soon, But Chicago Must De-
eide What It Wants, When Little Trouble
Is Looked for in Congress-New Enter
tainments at the White City Worlds
Fair Notes.
WASHINGTON, Aug S.-The proposition 10
keep open the Columbian Worlds Exposi-
! tion throughout the summer of 1894 found
its way to Washington previous to the
| opening of congress- but it had not been
suggested to any members of the Illinois
| delegation. Senator Palmer said he could
not talk intelligently upon proposition
concerning which he knew absolutely
| nothing. Senator Culom said he had
heard such a suggestion made in Chicago,
but had nothing to say beyond the fact
| that ne would support any measure, with
! in reason, which the various boards of the
| fair and the people OF Chicago might de-
| sire.
| Depends on the Chicago People.
Gen. Black, representative-at-larg said
| that if the people of Chicago, especially
| those charged with the management of
the fair, believed it could be made legal
and financial success he would be in favor
of continuing its existence for another
year. But only, of course, upon the re-
quest of the people of Chicago Repre-
sentative Aldrch, in whose district the
| fair ground Is located. said it was for the
| local directors and the commissioners to
determine that they want the fair kept
| open. Upon the expression of that request
| he had no doubt congress would act favor
| ably, and the Chicago representatives
| would do all they could.
Too beautiful to Tear Dcwn.
"We all feel, :" he added, that too much
| money has been expended on the buildings:
| that they are too beautiful in detail and
magnificent whole to be destroyed in
| six mont November is not bad month
| in Chicago, and independent of the ques-
tion OF continuing the fair next year,
| think it would be good thing to keep
| it open until Dec. l." Representative Dur
borrow thought the extension of the fair
| would be good thing. 1t would help out
| financially and allow greater number of
| persons to visit it.
| Has Confidence in the Managers.
Representative Hit, of the district ad-
| joining Chicago on the west, said enthusi-
astically that whatever the people of Cnl-
cago desired to have done, after a full
| study of the situation, ought to be done,
| and he would aid in accomplishing it.
"The matter, however" he said, should
not be hastily determined. Philadelphia
discussed continuance of the Centennial
but finally concluded not to attempt it..
But have confidence in the managers of
| the Columbian Exposition and know that
if they believe the opening next year can
| be successful they will make it so''

OPENING OF The BIKE RACES.
Sanger Gets a Fall That Lays Him or fo1
Few Days.


Few Days.
CHICAGO. Aug. S-Walter Sanger's bad
tumble, a number of surprises and a good
series of events marked the opening of the
l.. A. WIS international meet. Sanger's
fall and inability to participate in the
races for two or three days gave the enthu-
siasts reason TO feel disappointed, but it is
thought that by Friday the Milwaukee
crack will again be in form and ready to
try conclusions with Zimmerman and the
foreign racers in competition for the Sal
tonstall trophy and the worlds honors
The day was cool but not unpleasant, and
about 5000 persons attended the finals of
the days events in the afternoon.
The fore wheel of one of the riders
caught Sanger's pedal during a race and
when Sanger went down about dozen
others piled on top of him. He is only
skinned and bruised up pretty badly-no
bones broken. In the pile of wheelmen
were six of the best cyclers on earth. No
one except Sanger was hurt enough to re-
quire assistance Zimmerman cut two
more motel $ in his victorious stick by
winning both the oren aCes-the third-mile
and one mile, the former in 0:43 As and
the other in 2:3S Is. +. H. Tuttle won the
half mile state championship in lei, with
Citizens second and Knisely third.

nois championship in 5:302$ Zimmer-
man, II. Smith and McDuffee the scratch

Lumsden's best on record. The two-mile

winning in 5:l6. The races were splendidly
managed, delays being avoided, and aside
from some loafng in the distance races
the sport was excellent Tyler gave Zim-

RECRUITING EXTRAORDINARY.
Uncle sam Seeking soldiers in British
Possessions.


Possessions.
OTTAWA, Ont, Aug. S.-A large poster
in a store window here causes much com.
ment 1t is IA notice signed by Recruiting
Officer Lie "enant Archer Yates, second
lieutenant OF the Ninth infantry, of Og-
densburg, y. Y. holding out strong in
ducements for recruits to join the United
States infantry and cavalry. The placard
is of recent issue, quotes the new military
law of Feb gary last, and mentions the
increased raue of pay.
\ Conservative paper, referring to the
matter, says: That such poster should
be displayed in Canadian city is most ex.
traordinary. BY some citizens its exhibi-
ton in public in Ottawa is regarded as a
brazen piece of effrontery, and by others
as an indication that the United States
army is so unpopular on the other side Of
the line that enough recruits cannot be
obtained there. Anyway the poster ought
to be hauled down."

dance on II . yeat float in the south pond,
and the dance will be frequently repeated
during the fair, all the aboriginal Ameri-

Later in the week the Indians will have a
boat race in their own boats.
Another entertainment will be series
of concerts given in Festival hall by the
different tribes in turn, including the Jaw
anese, Turks, and others in the Plaisance
and the red Indian of this continent. 1t
is also under consideration to have the va
rious bands parade through the grounds
playing stirring airs, instead of confining
them to the band stands-iu other words
to scatter the music all over the park
There will be a novel ball given in the Ma
tatorium building Aug l6, in which all
the Plaisance dancers will appear-not in

eral Davis will lead the grand march with
