PRESIDENTS MESSAGES.


n
State Papers.
The advance sheets of one of the most
valuable publications ever issued by the
government have come from the public
printer, and the first volume will be ready
for delivery in short time. This publica-
ton is compilation of the messages and
state papers of the Presidents of the
United States from 1889 to 1897, published
by authority OF Congress. 1t will contain
historical matter of priceless value some
of which are not on record in the archives
of the government, together with the secret
proceedings of the Senate, now for the first
time disclosed.
1t is well known that Representative
Richardson of Tennessee, chairman Of the
House committee on printing of the last
Congress, has been engaged for more than
year in compiling the annual, special and
veto messages, inaugural addresses and
proclamations CT the Presidents from the
beginning of the government down to the
close of the present administra ton, under
resolution of the Fifty-third Congress-
He has the first volume now in the bndery
at the government printing office, and it
will be delivered the latter part of the pres
ent week. Volume l will include the first
twenty-eight years of our history as a ma
ton, that is, from $50 to 1911, Washington
Adams, Jefferson and Madison.
Mr.. Richardson has given great deal of
Tune, labor ana attention TO TINS work. 1t
has been purely labor of love on his part
as there is no provision for ccmpensa tion
He has devoted about year to its compila-
ton, and has the copy ready for the
printer covering the period to Grants ad-
ministration.
The Senate has recently removed the in
junction of secrecy from all executive mes
sages since Johnson's term closed, in order
that Mr.. Richardson might have access to
them for this work. These documents, Of
course, have never been published, and will
be read with interest by students of his
tory, and will disclose many highly inter-
estng matters in connection with that i'm
portant epoch of this government.
Mr.. Richardson has instituted new de-
parture in government publications by in
Serting illustrations of historic value. The
steel portrait of each President will appear
in it's proper place, together with bio
graphical sketch prepared by Mr.. Richard
son. The government printer has put forth
unusual efforts to make the work superior
in appearance and style to the ordinary
government publications.
The work will have especial value in tina t
it VIII contain all the proclamations Of the
Presidents. 1t is singular fact that the
government archives do not possess these
proclamatiOns. They are not in the State
Department, where they might be supposed
to be on file, and Mr.. Richardson has beer
compelled to get them from the statutes I
large from contemporaneouS newspaper
publications, and from historical works
such as Sparks Washington"

Proposed Removal of Gen. Gresham's
Remains From Chicago.

From the Chicago Tribune.
1t has been decided to change the place Of
burial Of Secretary Gresham from Oak
woods, in this city, to Arlington, at the ma
tional capital, and the necessary applica-
ton will be made at once to the Secretary of
War Some time before his death General
Gresham expressed to a number Of his
friends his earnest wish that he might rest
at last among his old and loved comrades
in arms in the beautiful national cemetery
at Arlington. The sentiment had taken a
strong hold upon his mind and heart, but
the end came without final arrangements
having been perfected according to his de-
sire. Mrs. Gresham, however, has not for
gotten her distinguished husbands wish to
make his last resting place among the ma
TONS honored dead, and has decided to
make the change. Otto Gresham her son,
agrees with his mother, and, in her illness.

"NIiss Philadelphia. E"

When Miss Philadelphia" was produced
as venture ON the tail end of last season i'm
the Quaker city, there was much speculation
as to the longth of its career, yet ON the very
first night it caught the popular fancy with
its light friyoites, pretty music aud really
clever dialogue In fact, it was the one big
hit Of all last season in that city, and for one
hundred nights crowded the theatre at every
performance. Now it comes to our town,
fresh from another triumph in that city, and
with all Baltimore and Washington where it
played to phenomenal receipts, singing its
praises 1t is the joint work Of Edgar Smith,
who wrote the book, and Herman Peret who
composed the music. These two gentlemen
have done much in this line before, but in
Miss Philadelphia are said to have struck
their happiest vein. The music has swing
and stir to it that is sure to impress one, and
make it popular in the street, while the lines
of the piece are said to be really bright clean
and witty, with popular sentiment inter
mingled with comedy to sustain popular in
terest. Miss Philadelphia will he pre-
sented in Shenandoah Oh Wednesday, Dec. ?.
