Tho strange Case Of seymour,

Seymour has been known to tho
country for u few weeks more or loss as
the man who desired to add to the
Worlds Fair the most attractive OF its
exhibits. His idea was akin to tho
Philadelphia lawyers definition OF
transCendentalism: Two holes in the
sand; the waves come and wash away
tho sand and leave the holes standing,
There was to be a hole big enough to
hold Seymour; he was to get in and BIO
covered up, and that was to be the ex-
hibit until tho end of forty days, when
seymour's friends would make another
hole where the old hole was and sey-
mour would step out just as though he
had been sweetly sleeping.
They claim to do these things in
India, and Seymour was fired with a
patriotic ambition to bring his country
up with the most advanced. II it be
possible to be dead for a few weeks, say
in very hot weather, or at times in very
cold, Seymour wanted to show that it
can DO done in this country as we'll as
any other.
The strange feature in tho strange
case of Seymour is that he is having
trouble to find q place for his burial.
Since he can't do the trick in jackson
Park he would appreciate an opportuu-
ity to do 1t near there. Instead of
meeting with sympathetic cooperation
Seymour Is being Swallowed and hunt
cd, as though a man has not a right to
bury himself if he prefers that way OF
living.
II Seymour can't succeed in any other
way no might join Governor Waite's
silver party. But when that goes
under it will DO for more than thirty
days.

IN ~,
A DIFFERENCE.
There was, 1t is true, the aftermath
of the panic OF '7S still in the land. but,
nevertheless, the finances OF tho cOun.
try were in a normal condition and peo-
pie could got all the money they
wanted ii they had anything to sell or
pledge. The case is very different to-
day. Those who have credit cannot,
except to q very limited extent get
money, and those who have little credit
and nc money are hopelessly barred
from coming here. Tens Of thousands
OF wage earners who would have been
here in good times will not be here this
year, The immediate future, as re-
spects employment, was never in the
history OF this country more uncertain
than just at this time, This is what
hurts the fairs prospects SO seriously
and Is also the explanation of the alarm
that is voiced in the newspapers here,
Chicago does not want to be hit any
harder than possible by the results. She
will be hit hard enough in all probable
ity, She therefore demands such an
extent OF retrenchment as will saye the
bonds and II possible the stock, Even
then the city and the people stand to
lose q great deal.

A GUESSING CONTEST.

There is a place on the fair grounds
where people record their guesses as
respects theI attendance for the six
months. The "0ld Times Distillery
Company" of Kentucky, have u log
still there, one OF ye olden time, sure
enough, wherein the modus operandi OF
converting corn and rye into vapor and
condensing vapor into spirit is shown,
and there you are expected to record
your name and address and your
guess as to the number OF admissions
between May and November. The pre-
MUM to be paid to the nearest euesser
TO tho actual number OF admissions Ia
fifteen barrels OF old rye, and to the
next nearest guesser ten barrels, and to
the third nearest five barrels. II ia in
teresting to look over tho estimates Of
the multitude who have recorded them
selves. They vary from eighteen to
thirty millions. A Wheeling man has
a guess there Of 1871 1898, Col. Exley
is busily engaged in looking ovor the
situation and will file his guess at a
later day. At present he has a good
deal to attend to. 1t will take a ratio Of
nearly three toCone to swell the 6,485,-
12l OF May, June and July to Is, 76l,523
in August, September and. October.
This in turn will probably require
brighter financial skies and cheaper
railroad rates.

FUTURE FAIRS.

The new three months started of
yesterday with only about $4,000 "ThO
more's tho pity" that this should DO the
case, for this generation, and quito pos
sibly succeeding generations, may not
SEQ another such fair. The Chicago
Herald OF this morning expresses the
opinion that considering the great OK
pense and great trouble OF getting to-
gether such an aggregation OF exhibits,
with the non-paying record OF interna-
tional fairs, Chicago included, the fairs
Of the future will be more OF specialties
than of universal exhibits. At all
events, that their scope will DO much
moro restricted than this ono. This
va~ticination OF the Herald, not unreason-
able in itself, ia OF course subject to
what may happen in the way Of an ex-
traordinary attendance. Suppose, dear
Herald, that the sun should shine out
at last, after all, and that Chicago should
get her money back, what then2 She
might want to do this thing over, as I
said some time ago, in 1916. A. VIC.
