Governor Turney, of Tennessee, tells
a good story and has keen appreciation

a religious revival was started in camp.
An officer told him one day that twelve
of the Georgians had been converted.
How many of our men professed
Christianity" he asked.

The exhibits in the mines and min
ing building are rapidly being placed.
Michigan contributes copper in its
crude as we'll as in its finished state.
Pennsylvania is bound to be seen,
with its obelisk of coal, shooting fifty
feet heavenward. Kentucky nearly
has its home finished, and exhibits
some fine specimens of her black dia-
monds. These are only snap shots
taken here and there, in passing, as
the exhibits in many instances are far
from being complete.
If one were to judge by the pyramid
of oranges from California as seen in
horticultural hall, as being a sample
of the number they can raise in that
State, he would say, that Florida was
not in it. In this building there is a
very large display of small fruits from
home and foreign chimes. Many are
in glass jars, others being in their
natural state. Who would think of
finding here apples from New South
Wales, and yet the specimens looked
very tempting. One end of this hall
is given to the fsrmented and infer
mented products of the vineyard, and
each exhibitor seems to vie vie with
his neighbor in having his exhibit
the best.
We had almost forgotten to mention
the dedication Of Canada's beautiful
building. Prominent among the dis
tinguished personages there were the
recently appointed governor-general
and his wife and the count and count
ess of Aberdeen.
Then last but not least came the
dedication of old Vienna, and the
theater of our brothers with almond
eyes, and where plays like stories in
weekly papers are Continued in our

months.
The weather has been all that one
could wish for, cool and pleasant and
the large attendance (about 100000

pie took advantage of it.
Mrs. Rover has done good service
for womankind, with her daily cook
ing lectures. If women would follow
her teachings, our tempers and dispo-
sitions would be more even.
In talking with some of the natives
from lands where "United States" is

they express themselves, in broken
English, as being delighted with
America, and in many cases, do not
intend returning to their own coun-
tries, but will settle among us.

master of vessel whose face is horri-
bly, distorted by a shock from the

ships no one is allowed to sleep on
deck, and the lunar rays, therefore,
cannot reach them, but on merchant
vessels, where there is less discipline,
especially in hot weather, tars sleep
