Fireworks Out West.

Many years ago when Denver didn't
have any Opera House, and the Rocky
Mountain country was terra incOgnito
of the world, there wandered ont to the
region of Fort Benton man named
EXbeadle, who made himself unpopular
among the Shoshcnes hv killing some
of the most prominent men whenever
he could catch item away from home.
As a result of this course of proceed
ure, Mr.. Exheadle had large private
cemetery, and hostilitics were declared
10y tie tribe.
Mr.. Exbeadle was a specUlator. and
one day fortune threw in his way a lot
of fireworks that didn't meet with q
ready sale and he purchased them. more
for his own amusement than anything
else. These he put to one side, and
didn't think of them again until one
day there was q council of war III the
ShoshOne tribe, at which it was resolved
to eXtinguish the light of Mr.. EXbeadle,
and send him across the mysterious
river.
They notified him that the intention
was to make hin climb the golden stair

and he didn't know exactly what to do,
not having time to consult counsel
1t was dark night in autumn, and
Mr.. Exbeadle felt that the morrow
would be of very little interest to him.
Like an inspiration, however, came
the recollection of his fireworks. He
rose and said:

Sunday.
CmcAGo, ILL.,, May 2S.-The first sun
day at the Worlds Fair has passed, a
success from financial standpoint at
least. Jackson Park was filled
1t is estimated that over 250, 900 peo-
pie visited the fair. 1t was a cold, raw
day, too, and for time it looked as
though it would rain. The day dawned
bright and clear, but towards noon the
clouds gathered and the atmosphere
became damp and chilly. As conse-
quence many persons who had intend
ed to 90 to the fair remained at home.
However this may be, thousands of ar
tisans and laborers of all kinds were
there, and a great many of them took
their families. The crowd rcsembled
that which collects in public parks on
sundays during the hot weather when
the tenement districts become Oppres-
SIVe.
Any kind of an estimate upon the at
tendance to-day may be had. Supt.
Tucker is III sea. BY comparison with
the opening day crowd, when there
were about $4,000 people in attend
ancc, it would seem a perfectly reason

A WORLDS FAIR ROMANCE.
How the Fair Typewriter Made sad the
Heart of Sheik Iii.

CHICNGo, Ill, May 27->hcik Ali,
mucZzin of the Cairo street, was sad
to-day when everyone in the street was
rejoicing. His voice, wont to call in
clear tones from the top of the bcauti-
ful minaret the faithful to their devo-
tions, was husky with grief. The
Egyptian clergyman had lost his
heart to an American girl, Miss
Blanche Wilson, a pretty type
writer, darkhaired and petite, who
came from Columbus, O., to accept
the position of secretary To one of the
managers of the street Whether or not
the priests love was rcCiprOCated is
unknown Ia everybody EXCEPT the two
chief parties in the little romance which
developed or rather was shattered yes
tcrday. Miss Wilson has been repeated
" lmpOrtuncd since her advent into the
Village, by the Mohammcdan priest. 1t
was necessary for the good of the show
that the priest should remain, and ac-
CorGingiy, late Thursday night Miss
Wilson's employer informed her hat it
would be better for her to return To- her
home in Ohio and thus be free from the
attentions of Sheik Ali. Miss Wilson
rather objected to this and soon after
she was informed of the determination
of her employers she fell into a swoon
"f some KIND which Il physician who
Vas called from the city was unable to
diagnose. She became chilled and il
was with great difficulty that warmth
was restored Even after that was ac-
complished she still remained uncon-
Scious and did not recover until late
Friday morning Whether or not she
had been subjected to some hypnotic
cor mc~meric influence bV the priest
could not be told, but the physician felt
sure that she had taken no drug or
medicine.
Miss Wilson finally agreed To return

circumstances ar thuS" which forced
her 10 do 81. II was determined to
take her quietly to the train at the
f.u@lcWuod station and to keep the
muyZZin away from her, but he had his
friends watching developments and he
managed to get ont of the grounds and
To- speak Il word To the object IF his
alteration before she took passage on
the train which bore her back to Co

Of the managers of the street. "that Xii :

but her faithful JaqueS proved the best
educator she could have. He directed her
enthusiasm Alright: he fed her magma
tion with truth; at once encouraging
and restraining it; hours together she
spent with him reading the books he
chose for her In vain the conventional
governess appealed to Mrs. Lowell against
this; she would not listen. She saw that
there was necessary craving in Dita's
eXiStanCe for the great and ChiValrOuS
and beautiful things, and the wonderful
tact and sympathy with which nature
had endowed the uncOuth Jaques taught
this also to him: this want must be fed,
or Dita would look round her for what
she wanted, and in her nearest and dear
est would learn and mark its absence
Her character developed slowly; she
was generous and unscliish, full of
sweetness and high religious tone: and
though the time came land Jacques
alone knew that it must Gomez when she
awoke to the fact that the parents whom
she loved so very dearly were not such
as she was never by word or gesture,
never even by admitting it to herself,
did She betray it. She loved them per
haps all the more that the feeling reused
up a feeling of protection of them from
the whole world.
Dita grew and shot up; her long golden
hair was woven into piaits, and she wore
a pinafore. Each time that Edward
Norton came home from school, he saw
less or her. and pronounced her quite
spoilt, and no fun; finally he never saw
her at all, and she passed on through
the last stages of her school-rOOm life

Humsne british Gir,hood.

A stag hunt was in progress the Other
day at Exmoor in England, and the ter
rifed animal finally became very haro
pressed. He tore over hill. dale and
common, and finally, in very headlong
fashion, took refuge in the dining-room
of one DR.. Budd. Two young feminine
Budds were being served with dinner at
the moment the stag plunged in. Their
unexpected visitor backed up against
the sideboard and faced the pack OF
hounds, who had promptly followed
him in. The hunters came up In mo-
ment, called off their dogs, secured the
deer by q rope and dragged him out to
receive his coup de grace outside. The
Misses Budd, instead of fainting or hav-
ing Mysteries, prOfessed themselves de-
lighted with the adventure and insisted
on the hunters staying TO dinner, which
they did.
