be more than realized. The restaurants

good condition before.
So great has been the demand for space
in the exhibition hall that it has beer
found necessary to give up the space
heretofore used for public meetings and
those will be held in the Swan hotel
The exhibition of the Maine industries
will be large The exhibit down town
in City hall will be fine, especially in
the needle work line, and the art de
partment, too, bids fair to be above the
usual standard.
Every stable will be filled before Mon
day night ready for the opening of the
fair on Tuesday. The 185 entries in the
racing department represent 155 indi-
vidual animals. The action of the
society in demanding straight entries has
met with a hearty endorsement. There
are 19 races scheduled for the fair in
which some of Names best horses will
compete.
Probably the best sport will be wit
messed from the grand stand when the
three and four year olds trotting stakes,
the three and four year o]ds pacing stakes
and the 2.35 pacing stakes come off.
The greatest interest will be centered in
the latter. At any rate it is being more
talked about than any of the events.
Among the contestants for these stakes
are number of we'll known horses, in

"THE GENTLEMAN FROM MAINE"
Mr.. Tucker Wants to Know why Demo
Gratis Desire Reed Rules.

Washington, september 2.--After
routine business the House resumed the
consideration of the new code of rules.
Mr.. Kyle, Dem, of Mississippi, offered
an amendment striking out the clause
which makes 100 quorum in committee
of the whole. He believes that quorum
in committee should be the same as that
in the House. The great business bills
were considered in committee of the
! whole and every member should be
present, This clause had been an inno-
vation of the 51st Congress, and the
people had spoken out against it. He
| believed it to be fraught with danger to
the country.
Mr.. Catchings argued in support of the
code as reported and upheld the consitu-
tionality of the 100 quorum clause.
Mr.. McMillin, Dem., of Tennessee, in
quired why it was that. if this rule had
worked as well as the gentleman said it
had in the 51st Congress, it had not been
adopted in the SD Congress.
Mr.. Catchings replied that the gentle
man from Tennessee was the last gentle
it not been for the gentleman many
amendments could have been made to the
rules.
Mr.. .McMillin retorted that this rule

WILL BE SECRETARY OF WAR
While Lamont Serves as Clevelands Polit-
ical Premier.
Washington, September 3.-Secrtary
Lamont has decided not to recommend
the appointment for the present of any
applicant for the Office of assistant
secretary of war, now filed by Gen.
Lewis A. Grant The unusual care taken
in making the selection arises from the
fact that the new assistant secretary will
be practically installed as secretary of
war so far as the administration of the
executive business i concerned and
relieve Secretary Lamont of the onerous
duty of transacting routine affairs and
give him time to attend to the confiden-
tial public and political affairs of the
President.

ramid stone monument was erect
ed, on which was engraved.
"Here 100 men, women and
children were massacred in blood
carly in September, 1857. They
were from Arkansas"
This report was also made to the
United States government by
Lieut.. Carleton. But Brigham
Young, as governor OF the terrific
ry of Utah, made no report to the
United States government of this
massacre.
Shortly after it's erection the
cross was torn down, the words

substituted: "Vengeance is Mine,
and l have had it, saith Brigham

1t was charged that this was
done by the orders of Brigham
Young, but it was never proven.
