A visit is not thing to be forgotten,
but it is pleasant to have something tam
glble and beautiful in memoriam of the
wonderful objects which are shown in
the various exhibits.
Judging by the supply of such articles
that are placed on sale, the most popu
lar people are Baby Ruth, Columbus
and Mrs. Potter Palmer Columbus has
to share his story with Queen Isabella,
who gave him the money to go forth
and discover America, but Baby Ruth
and Mrs. Potter Palmer hold undis-
puted sway in their own respective
spheres.
The most sought-for souvenir of Mrs
raised head upon it. The cheaper med
ais have the head merely stamped upon
them, and are sold for 81. But the
finer ones are either moulded or cut,
and sell for S. Or more.
The Baby Ruth souvenirs are so nu-
merous as to be funny.
The Sunshine League, of which James
G. Blaine, grandson of the late illustri-
GUS statesman, and the Marquis LAMA
are officers, gets out q number OF these
souvenirs which are sold for a child s
| home, which the Sunshine League is to
| to found. None of the members of the
league is over II years of age, and none
of the articles which they offer for sale
in their very attractive little booth is
larger than a big orange, so that the
booth, the baby sales-people, the sou
venir articles and all, are as cunning as
any dolls house that has ever been
! fashioned.
A very popular Baby Ruth souvenir
is lettering done in gold from the gold
mines Of California. You buy q small
hand bag OF portemonnaie, and then
you take it to one Of the booths where
they are writing Baby Ruth's name and
YOU let them put the letters on it in
gold. It costs so cents. If the satchel
is to be carried during the fair, the
name of Baby Ruth will be put on the
! inside along with the date, SO that the
Inscription will not be unpleasantly con-
| spicuous. There is no special sig
niticance in souvenir of this kind.

PHILADELPHIA LEPERS.
Progress of the Terrible Disease in Three
Patients at the City Hospital.

Patients at the City Hospital.
Dr. WEIGH, the physician in charge Of
the Municipal Hospital, exhibited
photographs of the three lepers now at
that institution, showing the progress
of the disease since their admission, to
Health Officer Veale and Chief Medical
Inspector Taylor, yesterday. All pre-
sented horrible pictures of the ravages
of the disease, particularly that of the
Chinaman who was removed from a
hotel while acting as cook. 1t shows a
shrunken and shrivelled resemblance to
the human form. Rapid development
of the disease is also shown in the pho
tograph of the female leper, who was
removed to the hospital from the
northern section of the city less than a
wear ago At the time she was admitted
there were four discOlored patches on
the unfortunate creatures body, while
the photograph shows that her entire
back, arms, and portions of her limbs
are now covered with leprous blotches
Of what is known as dry leprosy.
The case of the poor woman, who is
now about 20 years old, is a very sad
one. About thirty five years ago she
nursed a Mexican who boarded at her
home, who was ill with what was then
supposed to be elephantiasis. Some
colored patch on her arm, which event
ually disappeared. She gave the mat
ter no further thought until several
wears afterward, when biotches began
to appear on her body. The horrible
suspicion that she had leprosy forced
itself upon her, and she secluded her
self rigidly in an upper room of the
house in which she lived Some time
later she went to hospital but was re-
fused admission.
She then secluded herself more strict
ly than before, if that were possible,
and last summer called upon Chief
Medical Inspector Taylor. She re-
quested that an examination be made
in order that she might know
the worst, without the POSSIBLE
ity Of q mistake, i'll order that
she might be relieved from her haunt
ing fears, which were as hard to bear
as the reality. An examination by DR..
TAYLOR, assisted by DR.. Ford, president
of the Board of Health, and DR.. Welch,
of the Municipal Hospital, left no
doubt in their minds that the poor
woman was a leper They informed
her of this fact as gently as possible.
She was removed Immediately to the
Municipal Hospital, where the disease
has been gradually asserting itself I'M
til, as shown by the photograph, it has
covered the greater part of her body:
Dr. Taylor said yesterday that he had
no doubt she would die of old age
rather than the ravages of the disease,
being now over 20 years old.
Health Officer Neale said yesterday
that he had recommended to the Board
of Health that it strongly urge upon the
United States government the adv1Sa-
bility of establishing a leper colony at
some isolated point, to which all lepers
should be removed as soon as they are
discovered, and there kept under a
strict guard until they die. In this way
only, it is his opinion, can this dread
disease be prevented from spreading
and be eventually eradicated.-Phila-
delphid Press.

When done it will be a very valuable
relic of the fair, and will probably be
placed upon exhibition in the Metro
politan Museum of Art in New York

of salt from a salt mine in Massa-
chusetts The image represents wom-

Some Idea of the extent to which the
silver baIons have been robbing the
people under the operation of the Sher-
man law may be gained from the state
ment made by Senator MCPHERSON.
He declared that investigation showed
that it cost the mine owners only TWEEN
ty-six cents to produce the silver in a
silver dollar, for which the government
pays them siXty-four cents. There is
probably no other industry in the world
that pays so high a profit, But it must
be remembered that it owes these pro-
fits 10 the protection afforded by the
government, which is obliged by law 10
purchase the product. Were it not for
this fact the price Of silver would long
ago have fallen under the natural law
of supply and demand, to something
like its actual value, MS compared with
other products. The enormily of, the
business is found in the fact that the
people of the United States have been
mulct to the tune OF about S400, 0O0, 900
for the sole benefit of the private own
ers of the mines. II such "a law had
been passed in the interests of The own
ers of iron or lead mines, or of the pro
ducers of cotton OF corn, there would
have come up "A cry from all :ections of
the country that would have forced Its
immediate repeal. and the question nat
urally arises, why should "a eompara-
