Again the cry is revived that the
art exhibits at the Worlds Fair are
too much in accordance with old
Grecian ideas, that the Cupids, Ma
donnas, and other works Of art have
not enough clothes. No matter il
they are done in cold metal, there are
those whose modesty is shocked.

held ia Chicago on June 5 and 6 is at
tracing considerable attention, and
nearly all the states will be repre-
sented by delegates. Members Of all
political parties will be present and
while there will be much politics
there will he no partizauship. If
means can be devised to thwart some
of the big monopolies the meeting
will deserve the thanks of the
country.
The commanders of the new ships
in the United States navy are so
anxious for real test of the merits of
their boats that it takes but little to
make them talk war. The effort to
prevent further immigration from
China is used as a subject upon which
to construct a probable war between
these countries. If either country
wants to Danish residents who are not
citizens it will doubtless be able to do
so with no danger Of war.
Now it is claimed that Cleveland
proposes to make Gresham the
Democratic candidate for president in
1896. Five years ago many Re-
publicans wanted him for leader, and
last year the Populists insisted on his
accepting their nomination. If the
Probibitionists arc agreeable, perhaps
the affair can be made unanimous.
The Representative is still filled
with Donnelly's attacks on DR.. Fish

of Mr.. Donnelly attracting attention

and is liable to make his personality
more of an issue than the great Gre

had been injuring Baldwin's reputa-
ton with the interior officials. All
is lovely again. -

There IS keen remembrance lingering
ineradicably with the writer of a little girl

her turn came to recite her soul was full az
the CLEAN and glory of CGmelot She felt
as if she were unlocking treasure house.
and it was with unspeakable pleasure TO
herself that she gave. verse after verse, the
entire poem OF The Lady Of Shalott.

seemed to dritt away into the land OF fairv.
