THE FAMOUS AMERICAN EXHIB
IIOR.

Replying to a compliment paid him by
Caleb Cushing, PIT. Bdrnum said: No,
Mr. Gushing, am not famous. You are
famous, while am simply notorious. -
Undoubtedly, Mr.. Barnum was over.
modest in his distinction, but meant to
indicate that OF itself the show business
could confer no such thing as legitimate
fame, and in that conclusion he was right.
Today Col. w. F. Cody, the originator
of the Wild West show, is fully as widely
known and as popular as was the mighty
manager OF song and circus, while fairly
entitled to tame which Barnum did no t
claim This is not the result OF most ex-
traordinary success in the show business,
but both antecedent and incident thereto,
the publicity gained as an exhibitor at
home and abroad having served to direct
general attention to career and charac-
ter, the knowledge of which modesty
would have limited within the smaller
circle of brave and distinguished men,
with whom Col. Cody shared the dangers
and hardwon trlumphs OF border war
fare. He was hero by right of charac-
ter, presence and achievement, wearing
his laurels so unostentatiously that even
envy saluted him. When he conceived he
novel project of organlzlnga show which
would epitomlze upon large and accur
ate scale the romantic incidents, peculiar
tiles and unique pastlmes OF border life,
not only was he cordially seconded by his
hundreds otinhuentiallr friends in the army,
but was able to command the services of
representative and noted frontiersmen,
OF every class and calling, as well as that
OF the real Indian warriors, because one
and all knew and trusted him. The eX-
hibtion he perfected was an absolute
revelation 10 civilization and a pheno-
menal success in Europe and America,
and for months at the Worlds FAIR in
Chicago. The world found out what
manner Of man Col. Cody really was,
and from throne 10 cottage he was recog-
nized and welcomed; not as a Snowman,
but as representative American, with
record to be honored. Thisis not noto-
riety it is Fame.
1t is not the purpose of this article to
detail the attractions of Buffalo Bills
Wild West, which is announced to exhibit
here on Monday, July ODD; that may be
LETT to the advertisement. 1t may, how
ever, be remarked that the present season
its scope has been vastly enlarged, to ad-
NIT the introduction OF the best represen-
tative horsemen from the armies OF
Europe, the desert OF Arabia and the
plains of South America contrasted with
our own famous rough riders, and the
savage and reckless horsemen OF various
Indian tribes. Hundreds of such eques-
trians, splendidly mounted and costumed,
and simultaneously appearing in warike
maneuvers and illustrations OF individual
skill, forms splendidy thrilling and
picturesque innovation, impossible to
describe, and compared with which all
the combined features of the common
circus are but stalest burlesque.

THE IRISH CAUSE.

1t is reported that the New York branch
of the Irish National Alliance bitterly de-
nounces the call for convention in Dub
lin Of all Irish Nationalists. 1t is scarcely
possible that such can be the case, and the
statement will, perhaps. be entitled to
modification. The New York branch OF
the Alliance perhaps severely criticised
the effectiveness of such convention, but
as to the propriety of calling Ii certainly
no objection could be made.
Whatever the proposed Dublin conven-
tion may do can in no way disturb the
plans or lessen the energy of the Alliance.
So long as the two bodies do not prove an
tagonistic there is ample work for both to
do. The Alliance is working CHI admirable
lines lines that will conduce to unity OF
sentiment, adhesiveness of its members,
with common object and determination
and is accomplishing it's purpose without
noise or bluster, calmly but eagerly wait
ing for the hour when the final and the
telling blow can be struck that will show
to England that Irish patience and persist
ency in the sacred cause of freedom have
not been in vain.

HAYWARD'S FATE.

1t is thought that the date for the
hanging of Harry Hayward will be fixed
today by the governor and it is believed
that the time of the execution will be
about the middle of next week. Peti-
tons have been prepared asking that
Hayward's sentence be committed to the
penitentiary for life, because there ex-
lists an idea that he is not clothed with
discriminating intelligence. Other Pc
titions have been prepared urging upon
the governor to not disturb the due
course Of law but allow the sentence OF
the court to be carried into effect. These
petitions the governor has been consider
ing, and the general belief is that Hay
ward will be hanged.
One year ago on last Tuesday night
Catherine Cling met with an awful and
sudden death at the hands of Blixt, who
was the instrument used by Hayward in
taking the life of the girl. 1t had been
hoped by some that he might have ex-
plated his own life on the anniversary OF
her murder.

AN EDITORS GIFT.

Joseph Pulitzer, editor Of the New York
World, has presented to the city OF Paris
statues Of washington and Lafayette
which were modelled by Bartholdi, the
eminent French sculptor, who presented
to New York city the great statue OF
Liberty Enlightening~the World"
A striking idea must arise in the
minds Of all who will give this matter
thought. BarthDldi, a lover of liberty
and foreigner, comes to our shores and
erects a magnificent monument to the
liberty enjoyed under the stars and
stripes. Pulitzer, a foreigner in France.
erects two monuments in the capital Of
that nation-one to the father Of his
adopted country and another to the
Frenchman who loved liberty SO well
that he drew his sword in behalf Of the
sacred principle in our Revolutionary
war.
Pulitzer has more than a patriotic rea-
son for being grateful to this country.
He came here poor young man from
Bayaria-so poor in fact that he walked
Printing House square in New York all
night because he had not money enough
to buy a bed. Could he have been told
that in years to come he would own the
greatest newspaper in the world upon
one of the streets through which he so
lonesomely trudged, sleepy and hungry,

That man David Tice has broken out
again. He is now trying to prove that
the Catholic church was the cause OF the
Dark Ages. Tice has never been able to
get out of the Dark Ages. He is also CIV
ing his reason for not Joining the Catho-
lie church, the reason being that the
church, he says, is "anti-bible. Is it pos
sible that anybody has been trying to
make q convert of Tice? If SO, and he
had succeeded, it would have been loves
labor lost. 1t is not thought that any
body, except for brief period OF time,
could discuss with this man seriously, but
as an object of amusem he would af-
ford great deal of merriment. Like his
reverential namesake of old he is remark
able in the use he makes of the jawbone
of an ass.
