Ored by the invitation which you have
extended to me to release the electric
current generated by the power OF the
great cataract at Niagara and IN ac-
cOrdance with your wishes, I now de
clare the exposition duly opened
The following telegram was received
from the mayor of San Francisco:
san Francisco recognizes the electri-
cal claiming of the Niagara as one su-
preme triumph of mind over matter
the result of undreamed of progress
and therefore commands our congrat-
ulations.
One of the most interesting of the
exhibits was the Edison apparatus
showing the telegraph and telephone
equipment, the earliest forms OF cleo
trio lighting, transmission motors and
models, together with four sets of ap-
paratus with which experts gave exh1-
billions of the ROentgen Rays, so ar
ranged that by using the Horoscope

Wen under Roadway. The flames were,
however, confined to the closet and
were soon extinguished by the depart
ment. The closet held much valuable
clothing and all this was destroyed.
The horses at the department head

places when there was a second alarm
from the same source and the run was
made a second time The second alarm

WISHED INGERSOLL DEAD.

buked in the Ministers Alliance.

Cause and Cure" was the subject dis
cussed by the Ministers alliance here.
The meeting was the first one held by
the alliance in the new quarters of the
Young Mems Christian association.
The Rev. James White read a. long
paper. He enumerated causes of sui
eide, among them Robert G. Ingersolls
fdea that when a man is tired of living
he has a right to quit if desired. The
speaker said he did not know that ne
would be sorry if Colonel Ingersou be
came tired.
This remark brought out a reply
from the Rev. Q. B. Mitchell Of Grand
Avenue Methodist church. who said he
did not believe that DR.. White or any
one else could rejoice over the death Of
IngersOll. All should rejoice did he
live long enough to repent He was
the last man who ought to die.

LARGEST CYCLE SALE.
A Chicago Manufacturing Company
Disposes of 465.

Chicago, May 5.-The largest retail
sale Of bicycles on record was made
last week in st. Paul by the agent Of
a Chicago mandatory. Four hundred
and si2ty-five high grade bicycles We're
sold to the Boston Carnival club in one
lot, going direct from the retail cycle
store to the riders.
The Boston Carnival club was origi-
nally formed as a winter organization,
patronizing the outdoor sports OF slkat-
ing, snow shoeing and tobogganing.
Since the departure Of ice and snow
the club has decided to turn itself into
a bicycling organization, and cOnse-
quently all the members wanted wheels
at once. The firm furnishing the BIZ
cycles believes this sale of 465 wheels
establishes a record mark for a retail
transaction which viii not be reached

GRANDJURY INDICTS.
J. B. Watkins Charged With Violat-
ing Interstate Commerce Law.

Kansas City, May 5.-COnsiderable
surprise was caused among local ship
pers here when it became known that
the federal grand jury. which was dis
charged Saturday, had indicted John
B. Watkins, formerly vice president
and superintendent of the Indian Rye
Milling company, for violating the in
uerstate commerce laws.
Watkins was arrested but released
upon furnishing a $1,000 bond. The
section of the law under which Wat
l1ins was indicted was the tenth, which
applies to the reporting of false weights
by shippers. Watkins arrest is due
to information furnished the grand
jury by George L. Carmen, secretary
of the Western Weighing association
at Chicago.
Other shippers are said to rest I'M
easy under the belief that three other
indictments returned by the same
grand jury also charged improper
weighing.
