The Omaha Exposition.

When the Worlds Fair at Chicago ceased
to exist, 1t was supposed that we should
ne'er look upon its like again. However,
the Trans Mississippi Exposition at Omaha
has effectively reproduced in similarity all
of the buildings which made the White
City so attractive In 1898.
1t does not now take weeks to wander
through grounds and structures and then be
compelled to 60 away with a tumble OF
ideas, for the Omaha Exposition people
pave profted by past experience, and have
so improved the arrangement of exhibits
that no more than two or three days OF
time need be consumed i'm admiration and
inspection of the marvels of the West,
collected together In the chief city of Ne
braska.
Even the new Midway, is a reproduction
of the far. famed Street of All Nations OF
1898, with many improvements upon the
original.
The electric lighting of the buildings,
grounds and lagoon at night makes a scene
of enchanting beauty, alone worth travelling
thousand miles to see.
The means of communication between
the city and the grounds are ample, and
the distance to be tTaversed is short.
The ways Of reaching Omaha are innum'
cradle, but chief among them Is the direct
Chicago and Omaha short line of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee q st. Paul Railway, with
Its electric-lighted, vestibaled trains, leaving
Chicago every night at 6:15 p m, and
arriving at Omaha at $40 the next morning.

Foresee Trouble for Spain.

Madrid, Aug. 2S.-El Correo (minis-
terial organ) says: THE Cuban ques-
ton may yet occasion serious incidents.
AS also may the interior question,
which will raise difficulties it is hard
to foresee." The press, notably Ell
Heraldo, advises the government to
seek to save the economic situation by
means of Spanish funds instead of ap-
pealing for foreign capital which will
doubtless be offered. Such loans, how
ever, the papers assert, will be on m st
burdensome terms.

Charleston, w. Va, Aug. 24.-The in
dictment against Mrs. Myra Atkin-
son, wife of Governor Atkinson, for for
gerry has been quashed and the case
against her dismissed by Judge Biz
card on the ground that the indict-
ment failed to allege guilty intent and
further that the dismissal Of j. p.
Owens, principal, would necessarily ac-
quit Mrs. Atkinson, who was only
charged as accessory. This Is believed
to be the end of the prosecution OF
Mrs Atkinson.

Washington, May I've have a
man down in Arkansas that the
state has heretofore been proud Of,
knowing him to be the proprietor of
a level head and loyal heart, but
now we are prouder of him than
ever" said E. ". Wardell, of Little

Hon. Jeremiah @. South, lieuten-
ant governor of the state, whose
close friends allude to him as Jerry
He is one of the finest specimens of
young southern manhood that we
ever came across and his latest act
in regard to the war ought to be q
lesson to all self-seeking schemers,
who are besieging the war depart
ment and the President with requests
to be made colonels and generals
Instead of laying wires to get high
office, this man, like real Paladln,
is going to the front to do some
fighting. To that end he has laid
down the second highest Office in
his state and volunteered as private
in q company of the Arkansas militia
belonging to the town of Batesville
"He was not afraid his motives
would be misconstrued. He saw his
duty as clearly a. did Jim Bledsos
on the Prairie Belle and hesitated
no longer than did that hero. And
the conflict that is at hand will
give bond that Hon. Jerry South
will be found among the foremos

Mr.. South and the editor of th'

we have been watching his cours'
with much interest and take prid'
in the decided success he is making
in life. He was manly boy.

MANILA IS CERTAINLY DOOMED,
Anarchy and Riot Reigns and the Place viii
Be Sacked.

Shanghai, May 1-Famiae l prices
for food ere said to prevail in Manila,
and, it is claimed, the Spanish au-
thorities are maintaining order with
difficulty. They are burying their
valuables to prevent their seizure by
the insurgents or Americans. 5. The
military authorities are endeavorlng
to put e bold front on the situation,
but the Manila correspondent OF
the Shanghai Gazette asserts 1t Is
considered certain that the insur-
gents will sack the city when the
United States heet appears, not dis
eliminating between Spani9rds and
other foreigners.
The dispatches of the Gazette
alleges that the spauiards at Manila
are almost unprepsred to withstand
an attack upon the part Of the
United States fleet, claiming that no
defenses exist, in addition 10 the
recently laid hRrbor mines, except
obsolete artillery.
The natives are gathering en- the
Bulacan coast, expecting the arrival
of the insurgent leaders, Aguinalbo
and Alejandoro, who are expected
with American arms and supplies.
When these are distributed, it seems,
Manila will be attacked on the land
side.
