CHICAGO, July 23-The worlds fair
was closed today. The whole aspect of
the white city was one of peaceful quiet
The people of the Midway Plaisance sat
around and told stories of their faraway
homes and slept and rested and had a
good time among themselves generally
Toward noon a man appeared at the
Sixty-fourth-st gate and offered ticket
for admission and was refused. He then
took the numbers of the gate men who
refused to let him in. 1t is supposed
he was securing evidence for prosecuting
the exposition officials for contempt of
court Judge Philip Stein having granted
an injunction to restrain the officials
from closing the fair Sundays.
From this on fireworks will not be
permitted on the fair grounds, or they
will have to be set off away from the
buildings. Last night a bomb was sent
up and before il had reached a great
hight it exploded and the shell, falling
on the manufactures building, crashed
through the skylight and set fire to the
curtain stretched below. Had it not
been for the prompt work of the fire de-
partment the building and perhaps
others would have been consumed. Two
firemen climbed 100 feet above the big
beams and tore down the burning cloth.

Good Showing for Indiana Butter.

CHICAGO, July -Special.-Owing to
lack Of money to afford refrigerator cans
in which to ship Indiana butter as other
states are shipping it, scores are not as
high as they would be in cooler weather.
Robert McBeth of Farmland creamery
was the highest in creamery for July,
score 81, and Mrs. Caroline Eggerston of
Spiceland, Henry county, the highest on
dairy, score 80, she receiving the second
prize of the four offered for the best
score for dairy butter. This prize en-
titles her to twenty-five days lodging in
the woman's dormitOry in September.
All exhibitors from Indiana in dairy
products, fifty in number, will be allowed
to exhibit, and in October a smaller ex-
hibit Of butter fifteen of the highest
scores, and the remainder of the 81, 900
appropriation to the dairy will be de-
voted to a cheese exhibit. All creamer-
les in the state making cheese are in
vited to exhibit in October. The freight
will be paid on all exhibits and after
exhibition the cheese sold and proceeds
returned to exhibitors.

a Miner'Sx,-nsatIonaI Speech.

WEIR CITY, Kas., July 23.-The Sab
bath passed quietly in this mining dis
trict. The mines We're of course all idle
and working miners kept strictly out of
the way OF the strikers. The mine
owners have decided to not accept the
protection of deputy sheriffs offered by
Sheriff Arnold. They say the deputy
sheriffs are all appointed from the ranks
of the strikers and their sympathizers
and that the protection they afford would
not meet the occasion. The owners are
arming all their men and the latter are
under orders to guard their lives and
the properties upon which they are at
work at all hazards.
The sensation of the day is the speech
made last night by President Walters
of the United mine workers western as
sociation. He had just returned from
Missouri where he had been working
for the cause of the strikers. He ad-
dressed a big mass meeting of the
strikers and in the course of his remarks
he praised the miners for the work they
had done at Clemens strip pit, where
they were fired on by the new men at
work. He regretted that he was absent
at the time for he would have been glad
to have led the men to the conflict.

SCRANTON, Pa, July 23-Yesterday
was pay day at the mines at Price
burg, a populous borough of this county,
and the Huns and Poles of the town,
'and there are hundreds of them there,
began to drink heavily. Last night a
Hun and a Pole engaged in a fight in
Bryan Fallon's saloon and their country
men took sides with them, and a free
fight resulted. The borough police ar
rested four Hungarians and lodged them
in the Priceburg jail. Later the Hun
garians held an Indignation meeting, and
then proceeded in a body to the Jail,
where they overpowered the keeper and
liberated the prisoners. This caused the
largest riot that has occurred in this
region in sixteen years. The Poles took
exception and a race war commenced,
lasting three hours, the town being
taken possession of and the officers
driven off. Over thirty men were in
jured, three fatally, and one Pole had
his ears cut off. Many windows were
broken with stones and clubs. Shortly
before midnight Deputy Sheriff Craig
arrived with a well armed posse and
overawed the rioters and restored peace.
Many arrests VIII follow.

CHAPTER II.
IIERRE DEPARTS,

When the village had settled down
after the unusual festivities, all seemed
10 90 mclrily as marriage bell Even
the lovelorn SWANS, now that their
chances had hopelessly gone, settled
down as men almost invariably do to
the acceptance of the inevitable. And
the village maidens, now that so danger
Gus rival was removed into the calmer
atmosphere of matrimony, could afford
to go back to their loving kindness to
their old companion.
Marie lived in a dream Of joy. She
adored her husband, and he returned her
love with young husbands plenitude of
caresses. lie was tender with her moth
er and each evening entertained her IA
Their with a host of "reminiscences. The
rottage became each evening a new So
rial center. One after another old friends

prison would have led q wiser audience
to infer that there must have been some
good reason for his 50 constantly getting
into prison, since he had SO many time
need to get out again,
Once he went 50 far as to show on his
ankles the chain marks which he bore
with him in his escape from the galleys.
This was an occasion Of festive nature,
the silver wedding of his parents-in-law
when the wine had flowed pretty freely
and the tongues of all had been loosened.
Marie did not like such thing spoken

nowadays that he had often seen young
men in different countries take the same
fancy to 30 to the wars, pnd went on to
say:

thought that Marie would make an ex-

not, | think, be uneasy about him, for he
probably will not send you word until
he has got his epaulets These young
men who run away on account OF love

that they knew better than their parents,
although they don't seem to care much
for them when they leave without d

Hero Marie came and put her hand
over his mouth tenderly, saying:
"Oh, hush, Robert Doyou not see that
you are torturing his poor mothers
heart"
"Torturing his mothers fiddlestick"
was the hesrtless RESPONSE, and the tears
rushed to poor Naric's eyes. She felt just
as if he had given her blow! AS for
Pierre's mother, she simply sat down on
the floor and threw her apron over her
head, rocking herself to and fro in an
ngony Of grief. Presently Nine. Lamar
raised her head and asked
when did this quarrel take place."
Robert answered gruffly:
The night before he went for SOL

The mother threw UP her arms with
despairing cry:
Il shall never see my boy again.
Robert drove his hands into his peck
cts and went out Of the room without d
word, whistling the "Carmagnole"
When Robert spoke the words ''The
night before he went for soldier, a
chill like knife went through his wife's
heart, and, why She knew not, there rose
to her mind the memory of the rapid
beating Of his heart as he lay that night
in such deep sleep that her whisper could
not wake him. Henceforth part of tbo

"You 1Cill .fnd that l am right"
There came a CHEEKY sound up the
pathway-that of a pleasant young voice
urging on a mule as it made a vigorous
effort to master the upgrade. When they
had got near the shelf of rock, the mule
stopped and refused to go on, despite the
remonstrance of its master. Pierre,
with encouraging words, dropped his
rein and went to the mules head to see
what might be the matter, for he had
never known the animal to refuse diff
ticult place before.
AS he stood on the narrow shelf there
was a sudden rush forward, the mule
SHE'D, Pierre received violent push,
which sent him off his balance, and man
and mule disappeared over the precipice
together.
About 3 o'clock Marie awoke suddenly.
There was some trouble ON her mind
which she did not understand, but her
husband lay sleeping beside her, and her
fear began to pass away. At first she
thought she would wake him, and even
mentioned his name III the hope that he
was sleeping but lightly and would east
ly awake, but he slept on soundlY, al
though, as she took notice, his heart was
beating very hard for a sleeping man.
However, he was there, and her wifely
concern was satisfied, SO with sigh she
sank to sleep again.
Tie next two days passed unevent-
fully Pierre Lamar did not return as
expected ON the third day but as he
might have been put to some trit1ing de-
lay his parents We're not uneasy, But
when a fourth, fifth and a sixth day
passed without any tidings Of him they
grew seriously uneasy and began to
make inquiries from all Some one told
them Of the quarrel with Robert Macaire
and of the prediction of the latter that
Pierre would go for soldier. Straight
way the mother, half distracted, sought
him out and implored him to tell her
why he had come to such conclusion.
He answered her with degree of kind

Bal the peace and prosperity were not

Of strangers troubled them not. Even
the tcrrors and troubles Of the revolu-

and now, when the hamlets Of France
were being drained of men to recruit the
wasted armies and to swell the "almy
IF England" which was gathering on

escaped unscathcd.
Such thing as a complete stranger
was unknown III the village Now and
again came an official on his way from
place to p.ace-a casual peddler or an
'tinerant musician on his rounds-and
a such times the curiosity which lay
