the White City that has sprung up in
Nashville during the past few weeks,
has now assumed an aspect that is beau
tiful beyond comparison. As winter
relaxes its grasp and vernal beauties are
apparent. the picture presented is like
a glimpse of fairy land. page from the
orient, though called into being by
the magic wand of the genii. The
stately buildings. incomparably grand
and majestic, of purest white, seem to
stand like silver baskets on Il base of
emerald, and the reflection of the spires
and tapering minarets in the pretty
lakes is most enhancing vision.
During the past week the colossal statue
of Pallas Athenae was placed in posi-
ton, and it stands, as it did in the
Athens of old, Immediately in front of

all that is great and good This wonder

chisel gave it life, is daughter of the
late DR.. Yandell, of Louisville, Ky, who
was Tennesseean. The figure is over
40 feet in height, and is magnificently

ing circulars to intending exhibitors
and others, relative to the exposition
In the circular at hand the statement is
made that the object of the exposition
is to make the people of the United
States better acquainted with the state
of Tennessee; it is not being pushed as
a money-making scheme for it's pro-
motors. Space is free to exhibitors and
power is furnished without extra charge
to those requiring it. Nearly all availa,
BILE spaces are taken, but there are a few
remaining which are being reserved for
especially attractive exhibits. The ex.
position will be held at Nashville, Tenn,
opening May 1 and closing October 81
1897. That it will surpass the Phila-
delphia centennial is an assured fact
and it will be very far ahead of Atlanta.

determination of Birds.

The Pallas cormorant, largest of all
known cormorants, used to be found
on Behring island, in the North Pacific;
it has disappeared and only four speci-
mems exist in museums. The Caracara
eagle, which bred on the island of
Guadaloupe, off the coast of California,
is gone. Only a few living specimens
of the California condor, the largest
bird of flight in the world, remain. This
gigantic vulture has been nearly exter-
minated. Two well-known Carolina
parroquets, the only parrots native to
the United States, are near to final ex-
tinction. Formerly they ranged all
over the eastern part of this country,
as far north as New York and west
ward to Texas. At present the few sur
vivors are confined to remote parts of
southern Florida and the Indian ter
ritory. These little birds sleep inside
of hollow stumps. hanging by their
beaks, which are stuck into crevices.
Awhile ago the so-called passenger
pigeon flew by millions in the Ohio
valley as far east as Massachusetts.

On Monday the 18th Harold Marquisee, of
Utica, n Y, was arrested in Syracuse, n.

cry. On the 18th of December Marquisee

Williams Medicine Co., and arranged for the
making of full set of plates for the direc-
t1on sheets labeis etc, Of the bo famous Dr.

was lost in arranging for his arrest when he
should return for the plates, He returned
On the 18th, and was accordingly arrested
and is now in Jail in Syracuse awaiting ex-
animation, which occurs on March ID.
This arrest proves to be an important
as medical books, typewriters, rugs, ETC.,
found in Marquisee's trunk when arrested,
the police also found counterfeit coin both
in the trunk and on his person; and in a
complete outfit for counterfeiting consist
ing of crucibles, bellows, nickel, lead,
bismuth, antimony, small blacksmith
ter-of-paris molds. The United States mar
shals want him just soon as DIR. Williams
Medicine Co. are through with him, and, no
doubt, he will be sentenced for a long pc
riod.
In selecting DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
his counterfeiting operations, he showed his
ness; for these pills are in such great demand
that they are easily sold at any drug store in
the United States. His scheme was to work
the country druggists and sell his imita-
tions at discount of from 2per cent. to per
cent, explaining the reduced price by the
fact that he had picked them up in small
lots and at discount from dealers who were
overstocked. By working fast and making
long jumps, he would have secured many
hundreds of dollars in short time. The
proprietors of DIR. Williams Pink Pills are
most fortunate to have caught the rogue, be-
fore he had fairly started, and to have thus
kept these spurious goods out of the market.

was afterward merged into the general
concern. Thus he began. one may say.
as a boy to make and save money for
himself, and he followed that plan ever
since. He married, at %. Miss Emile
de Loosely, a daughter of Sir Charles de
Loosely, and his wife bore him nine
children. Mr.. Havemeyer paid strict
attention to his sugar business, but did
not allow business to absorb all his
time, and he spent many years abroad.

left its mark upon him so distinctly
that he might have been taken for q
foreigner at any time. Twenty-six
years ago he was living in Europe and
paid q visit to Vienna There he was

was that he was offered a position Of
consul general for Austria at New
York. He accepted the position at once,
and held It, with great satisfaction to
his principals In Vienna, for more than
a score Of years. Mr.. Havemeyer made
many millions out OF the sugar busi-
ness, but he was a shrewd financier be-
side. The only man that ever got the
best OF him was crafty Claus Spreckles
