manner ia which II was rendered.
There we're visitors from Pocate!lo,

Japanese Fireworks.

A feature OF the Tennessee centen-
NAL fair which excites great interest
and universal attention is the Japanese
daylight fireworks, which are set of in
the afternoon on the shore of Lake
Wataura. AS the crowd stands watch
ing there comes a boom, and a dark
sphere about as big as a six-pound can
non ball mounts straight up in the air
about 300 feet, and Is 1t curves, ex-
plodes, releasing another body, which
mounts still higher, and quickly ex-
pands into the shape Of some queer OBJ
iect-a camel, a deer, a darcing-girl. u
priest, q man on an elephant, a flying
cock, a hare or a tortoise, a vulture, or
one OF a score OF other ~shapes--all in
brilliant colors. The baloon.like OBJ
iec,s hover for some time In the air,
rising and sinking, and iostling n an
other In their wavering poises, until
finally their buoyancy gives out, n II
they have not been blown away, they
fall, and are fallen upon by the chill
dren. The figures are, OF course, very
big. SO that they make u good showing
at a high altitude. They are made ol
tough paper, and ingeniously folded
into their she'll. Within each one is
fuse, which, lighted by the first ex'
plosion, produces gas enough to distene
and support the figure to which 1t II
attached. On Mckinley day at tbs
fair there was an illumination, and tn,
show OF these fascinating fireworks wa

This company is qualified by the laws

There Is room for a large increase Of
this surety business when its advan-
cages are fully presented and under
stood. Personal suretyship. with its un-
pleasant incidents and demoralizng in
fluences. will soon be a thing of the
past. The proposed principal of a bond
need not now be put to the embarrass-
ment of asking a friend to go on his
bond. and the friend should now be re-
lieved of either assuming the risk or re-
fusing to do so. either of which is a
very disagreeable thing to do. II is be-
coming a common thing in many parts

eect himself from possible loss by in
