There is much of unusual and enticing
interest in the studios of the Columbian
Celebration Company in Chicago, say
those who have been allowed to inspect
the interior OF this building. In this
building is being prepared all the novel
scenery to be used in the production
which will be given in the "Chicago
Spectacular" The building itself oc-
cupies over 400, 900 square feet of ground
and inside its wall can be seen, nearly
complete reproductions OF the three car
avels that left Palos in August 1892 for
the New World. Also miniature for.

OF La Rabida and many other sights ol

is progressing very rapidly and this de.
partment will be ready even before the
building itself is completed.

A Glenville, w. Va, paper says the
committee of two Glenville Normal
School societies, in seeking speaker
for Confederate Memorial Day, "invited
Blaine, Cleveland, Golf and Kenna.
The gentlemen all answered unfavora-
bly,, except Mr.. Kenna, from whom they
have not heard. The boys think they
must all be confounded busy not to
accept" There is either zeal without
knowledge, or zeal with more know ledge
than we can account for. We can easily
understand how they reached Cleveland
and Goff, but by what species of man
agement this committee got the address
OF James G. Blaine, and managed to
hold him up for reply is mystery.
Senator Kenna has not given them an
answer. Senator Kenna was a master
spirit among the Democrats OF the South,
and having recently passed into immor.
tality, may ne TOO inach engrossed in
the enjoyment of Southern hospitali
ties to care about earthly honors. The
boys ought to invite JEFF Davis, the
recent distinguished visitor to the Old
Dominion. JEFF was noted speaker in
his day, and they have probably heard
of him. Alter the occasion has been
properly hlnored, the authorities OF the
Glenvilie Normal School should invite

Our friend of the Wilmington Journal
is anxious for Chicago.prices to drop a
little bit below the twenty.story house
tops before his free railroad ticket eX-
pires. We suggest that the newspaper
men should return to army style, visit
the fair with loaded haversacks and
canteens well filed. They might also
carry blanket or crazy quilt properly
strapped to their manly shoulders. The
Journal man says mournfully:
If man has a hundred acre farm and
is willing to sell it he may take IN the
sights of the Worlds Fair for week or
two, for if all the reports are true it
would require just as much money as
such farm would bring to remain in
Chicago that length of time. With
coffee at twenty-five cents a cup, beef
one dollar slice, ten cents for the use
OF plate, and other things in proper
ton. none but the millionaires can afford
to see the show. The thing to do is to
boycott the fair until the managers
take hold OF the robbers and force them
to make reasonable rates.

Judge Stone is to be commended for
refusing new trial in the case OF Muir
derer Moran. The evidence was clear
in the case, and there was no just ground
for questioning the finding OF the jury.
1t would have been an uncalled for and
indefensible reflection upon the Prose"
cutting Attorney whose able and con.
scientious work secured Moran's con-
viction, and just cause for public indig.
nation had the motion of the prisoner g

Ledder.
The position OF the Leader on this
matter is correct on general principles.
There is entirely too much uncertainty
attached to the outcome of criminal pro-
ceedings. The people demand protec'
ton, and the failure to attain and enforce
the promises of the law in that direction
certainly lessons confidence in it as an
avenue to Justice.
