CLOSED ON SUNDAYS.
Directors Decide That the Seven-Day
Fair Doesn't Paw.

By vote of twenty-four to four the
Worlds Fair directors after three hours
ession, decided to close the Exposition
gates on Sundays after July 16, known as
Heroes" day. The belief was gen.
Tal that the seven-day Fair was un-
wise in view of past experience, and most OF
he directors went to the meeting with the
Intention of voting to abolish the Sunday
Exhibition vice-President Peck had reso-
ution, which was approved by President
diginbotham, which explained the failure OF
Sunday Fair and contained motion that
N order be issued providing for closing the
,ates every Sunday after July 16. In the dis
ussion which followed attention was called
the many closed exhibits on Sunday and
the fact that workingmen, whose chief
interest in the Exposition would be in the
machinery, could not enjoy that exhibit in
is entirety because the machines are not
un Sunday.
The closing on Sunday extends to Midway
1aisance, and a mighty howl went up from
hat Oriental thoroughfare. The Sunday
rowds have made the day profitable for the
didway concessionaries. and they are hot.
The directors expected a kick from that
iuarter, but could see no way of consistently
losing the Exposition grounds proper and
pening the side shows and beer gardens.

Terrible Explosion in a Williams
burgh On. Y.) Factory.

An explosion in George W. Campbelfs rub.
ber, cement and hatters' materials factory in
the rear of 211 Walworth street, Williams.
burgh. N. Y. resulted in the death of the
proprietor. his fourteen-y -year-old son, Charles
Joseph Knee, the engineer, and John D..
McCutcheon, laborer. The factory was a
one-and-a-half-story frame building stand
ing back of a two-story frame house in
which Campbell lived with his wife and
three children Hannah, Charles and John,
aged respectively sixteen, fourteen, and nine
years. The factory was on the first floor,
where were located the engine and boiler,
the varnish room and several machines. Al
though the making of ruober cement is a
dangerous operation the neighoors never OBJ
iected. for they had become used to the fac
tory and also because Campbell had been Id
the business for many years. Campbell had
McCutcheon helping him in the place While
Knee looked after the machinery.
His eldest boy, Charles, had assisted him
in his labor since his school vacation began.
1t was few minutes after o'clock, while
Mrs. Campbell was sitting at window I'D
the rear of her house overlooking the fac.
tory when Charles, her steps, son. came from
the building The boy had been engaged
all the afternoon with a machine in which he
ground rubber, moistened with benzine, into
jelly.
ssI've been helping papa all day said the
boy. but the smell of the benzine makes
me very sick
Mrs. Campbell told the boy to stop work,
but he replied that they would be through
in fifteen minutes. He then went back into
the factory and closed the door.
Fifteen minutes later Mrs. Campbell, who
was sewing at her machine, heard her hus
bands voice exclaiming; Joe. what's the
matter? The machinery is stopped"
His voice had hardly died away when the
explosion occurred. Mrs. Campbell was
thrown from the chair on which she was sit
ting against the bed. $500 f*
It is estimated that property and glass to
the value of $4,000 were destroyed by the
explosion. The damage by the fire will moi
exceed $2500. What caused the catastrophe
no one could say positively, but 1t is be
ieyed that an explosion of naphtha did it.

other forage comes from all parts of Europe.
France, Germany and Belgium will take the
largest quantities. We are making an enork
in the Agricultural Department to secure
some statistics as to the amount OF beef con-
sumed in this country. 1t is difficult
thing to do because of the absence OF any
figures on the subject. Tbs, farmers have
suffered greater losses on beef in the last ten
years than on any other product. and still
the strange fact remains that beef is the only
product OF consequence which does not figure
