GOING TO THE WORLDS FAIR
Now is the Time and the Readings "scenic
Route the Way.

NOW is the Time and the Readings "Scenic
Route" the Way,
Stories of Chicagoan rapacity, added to the
admitted incompleteness of many of the ex'
hibits, detracted greatly from the success of
the Worlds Fair during the initial month,
and the attendance, while enormous fell
far short of anticipations. Now, however,
no one need be deferred from visiting the Ex-
position by fears of extortion, or by misgiv-
isvs as to seeing the great show in its en-
tirety The Chicagoese have regained their
senses, and reasonable prices again prevail.
The buildings are finished, the exhibits all in
place, and the wonderful aggregation of the
worlds greatest achievements can be seen to
vastly better advantage lust at present than
at later period when the rush shall have
set in.
A favorite route to Chicago from the
Eastern and Middle states is over the Scenic
Lehigh Valley" division of the Reading rail
road system, by way of Niagara Falls or
Buffalo This liue traverses a region exceed
ingly rich in picturesque scenery. Indeed,
It may be questioned whether in all America
journey of the same extent will afford to
the lover of the beautiful so many and so
diverse and charming views of nature in her
loveliest forms.
The traveller from East to West by the
Scenic Lehigh Valley Route" passes through
the sublimely beautiful scenery Of the Le-
high Valley, past Mauch Chunk, the "switz-
erland of America" into and over vast
ranges of sky-towering mountains, through
the song-famed and romantic Vale Of
Wyoming, the smiling Susquehanna Valley,
and on through the famous lake region OF
New York state to Buffalo or Niagara Falls,
whence any one of several diverging lines
will convey him to the Worlds Fair City on
Lake Michigan. Aside from the scenic
beauties of the Reading Valley
route, the line is perfect in construction and
equipment, the trains being composed of
magnificent coaches and parlor and sleeping
cars and supplied with all conveniences and
every approved appliance for safety and
comfort
From New York and from Philadelphia,
with connections from every direction at
numerous junction points, Pullman parlor
and sleeping cars are run through, without
change, to Chicago, those going by way Of
Niagara Falls, passing through Canada oveI
the Grand Trunk and Chicago Grand
Trunk Railways, while the cars going via
Buffalo reach Chicago over the Nickel Plate
line.
Passengers taking the Reading Route have
the choice Of a number of lines in addition
to these, either going or returning. The
fares offered by the Reading are as low as by
any other route-indeed, in most instances
they are lower. There are now four through
trains, in either direction, every day, and full
details respecting routes, rates and trains can
be had at Reading Railroad ticket offices.

Travels.

AEhNNAhs
Times have been hard in this district and
the prospects are but little brighter, yet the
prices Of real estate keep at high notch and
give no indication Of breaking. By personal |
inquiry at reliable sources have found that
prices offered and asked for some properties
in town are really eye openers. A party
recently made an offer for Main street
property and drove his stakes in at 100000.
The owner promptly rejected the offer The
owner claims that the property is now paying
10 per cent, clear of all taxes and other
expenses on a figure above the Offer Another
property, not as extensive as the one just re.
ferred, but located only a short distance from
| it, is holding out for $4,000. There has been
an offer of Sl2, 900 standing for some time
| On another street there is property 30 feet
| front and go feet deep with a building forty
feet deep on it. An offer for this is standing
at $4,000. Another Main street property
with buildings somewhat inferior to those on
the properties above mentioned can go to-
morrow for S6,50O, but the owner holds out
for 1900. 1t is really surprising. Numerous
properties are on the market and bids are in
for all Of them, but the owners are holding
off for stiff prices and in almost every case il
looks as if they will get them by waiting

LANDLORD AND TENANT.


A Dispute About Possession Leads to
Law suits.
Michael Curley is First ward landlord.
Among his possessions is a piece Of property
which has saloon license. John August, a
Pole. ran the place, but on Monday the
license was transferred to another Pole.
August refused to give up possession and the
new man appealed to Landlord Curley, who
got into an argument with August and his
wife and was knocked through a window
sash. Curley and August continued the
quarrel out on the street, when Chief Burgess
Burns and High Constable Flynn nterfered
and arrested both men. They were taken
before Squire Monaghan, who imposed 8
fine and costs on August amounting to So
Curley's penalty was SO. August paid th'
most because he tried to escape from thu
officers. The landlord then entered suit TO
assault and battery and August was put unde
$500 bail.

To change the subject l will revert to
theme that was discussed in a Main street
store yesterday afternoon. 1t is remarked as
singular, and possibly an indication of lack
of patriotism, that the average American
always excepting school children, cannot tell
off-hand how many stars there are now in his
country's flag. If any reader of this desires
to try the question on 10 of his friends he
will probably find that only three or four can
give the correct number, even after minute
of hard thought The ordinary reply will
range from 40 to AZ stars instead of the cor
rect "A. The admission within four years of
North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana,
Washington, Idaho and Wyoming has
brought the list up to the last mentioned
number. The shape of the union has been
changed from a "a 'uie 10 u Ivctangle, and the
stars are arranged in SIX Straight lines, the
upper and lower ones containing eight stars
and the remaining four having seven stars.

The experience Deputy Coroner Manley
had in VIM. Penn yesterday in his efforts to
locate a supposed brother of the Hungarian
who was found hanging on tree on the
mountain was sufficient to convince one of
the great difficulty tax collector must have
in securing payments from some of the
foreign classes we have in our midst and the
tedious work the assessors must cope with in
making up their lists. The Deputy called at
three houses, but none of the Hungarian
occupants knew John Shanno3k, John
Shamrock, or John Kwalic. At one of the
houses the door was found locked and
Hungarian neighbor frankly admitted that
the occupant had locked herself in because
she was afraid the visitor was policeman or
tax collector. At one of the houses a
woman professed entire Ignorance of the
name mentioned. At another the name was
recognized and a Hungarian accompanied the
Deputy Coroner back to the other house.
"Tell her there is a dead man in Shenandoah
named Shamrock and we found lot of
money in his pockets" said the Deputy
laughin gly. The woman who had protessed
entire ignorance of the name made spring
for her shawl, chattering at 2:4O gait
" What does she say?" asked the Deputy
Coroner of the interpreter. "She say dead
man brooder work in breaker and she tell
him" And thus it is the same old story
If some of these poor foreigners are killed in
the mines and there is any money coming
! from the beneficial fund on account of the
/ death, little trouble is experienced in finding
the relatives; but if the deceased is penniless
aud his death brings no coin the verdict
invariably is dead man no good" and even
his own brother will frequently refuse
recognition.
