will be marine transportation leading to the army and navy buildings, in which ships of all kinds can be seen. This will be extremely interesting in the light of recent naval exploits. It is hoped and intended that models of our famous battleships will be placed upon the water here.
 There is to be a Midway Plaisanee in which America will have its own ssthibit but by far the biggest space is gives ss the streets of Cairo and Bagdad, and the Ghin- csc village and the old Spanish town. Siam has court and Japan, as seen in feudal times is there. One of the queer features of the plaisance will be the moon as it would look to a person only three feet away.
 It must be confessed that Americans will take great part in the freaklsh exhibits of the exposition. The revolving tower. which gives view of the country for miles around and which takes an hour to re- volve. has It's back ground in American money and American industry. '
 The crystal palace, lighted by electricity, will be a novelty. not only in beauty. but in electrical workmanship. %4
 It may seem little early to begin the shipping of products to the exposition, but it Is fact that several houses are already securig cases in which to pack the valuable goods that are to appear at the exposition. Transportation will be slow, and. after their arrival, the great cases of goods must be unpacled, which alone takes as long US the erection of modern building.

privilege was secured by special conn mission headed by Thomas w. Cridler, who vent over in the interest o the Amer ican display Edisons wonderful e1ectri- cal show which created such sensation in 1889 will be represented, with the addition of his later triumphs.
 American artists are to be represented in play at the exposition. Germany and Rus sia have each appropriated $1,250,000 and England 2100,000, but this country, while 1t has not yet appropriated its full sum, will give it's check for an amount far in ad- vance of any of these.
 American artists areto be represented in the building of painting and statuary; and the processes of mechanical electricity and civil engineering there will be also well rep- resented. The products of the earth, agri- culture, horticulture, forestry, the chase, fisheries, placer mining, food stuff, and metallurgy have all received attention from American exhibitors, and exhibits of deco rations and furnishings, including textile fabrics chemical industry, threads, yarns and tissues will also be shown. We will have an immense department of hygiene and one of public and organized charities. It will be in all ways magnificent exhibit.
 At the Worlds Fair all of Jackson park and the Midway Plaisance, TAO acres in all, were devoted to the exhibit; but Paris can give only one-half of this space. Unfortu- nately it is decided to erect the exposition buildings in the very heart of the city, and therefore it cannot be spread out as in the Worlds Fair.
 The Paris commissioners, on being urged to hold the exposition on the outskirts of the city. replied that the facilities for ur- ban traffic were so limited that it would be impossible to transport the people to the fair. It would be absolutely necessary to erect it in the heart of Paris.
 It can be imagined how great is the need of space from the fact that two and half acres of ground have been made by filling in along the banks of the Seine. The gar dens and terraces on both sides of the river will be utilized, and there will be exhibits each side.
 Spanning the Seine. and commanding view of the exposition. will be new bridge to be known as the Poine d'Alexan- dre IT. The cornerstone of this bridge was laid by the Czar Nicholas on October 19 1885 Each end of this bridge will be made a dream of lovliness. Pavilions, where will be received the kings of the earth, are to be erected along here; and the republic of France will hold royal court.
 Several of the palaces have begun to rear their heads and others are being rapidly constructed. The two most imposing build ings will be the two fine art palaces which are now being built on the site of the old Palais PIndustrie. These are to be known as the Grand Palais des Beaux Art and the Palais des Petit Art The sum of $5000.00 is being spent upon their construction. The grand palais holds the finest productions of

theater and roof garden to be called the American theater. This is to be given over to American vaudeville, drama and opera by American artists of the first rank. Ne gotiations have been opened with Richard Mansfield, actor; Nat Goodwin, comedian; Lillian Russell, comic opera prima donna. and Nordica, opera singer, for perform ances. It is proposed that the attractions, the operas, the actors, the scenes and the costumes shall all be thoroughly American. John Philip Sousa has been asked to con- duct the roof promenade concerts.tI J

 On the north side of the Seine, and in the Cours La Reine, will be laid the agricul- tural and horticultural buildings. The gar- dens will lie far around the buildings. The colonies will have their exhibits adjacent to these buildings.
 By far the larger number of buildings will be south of the Seine, and here all ma chinery and mechanical works will be dis played. The Palais des Machines will be somewhat smaller than it was at the Co., lumbian exposition, because it is the intention of the authorities to show the machines at the side of their products. As

 It is understood that all articles must pass through the customs in the regular way, but that all amounts paid will be re- funded when the goods are brought. out of the country. But on this point there is not yet a definite decision.
 The rules require that the Paris exposi- tion shall be considered bonded ware house. Each sender forwards statement, and the department receiving them is re- sponsble for the goods.

To Measure an Acre.

rev farmers know the actual size of
their fields or how many acres they
contain. \ field of the writer's. be-
fore it came into his possession, had
been plowed and reaped by contract of
10 acres. On measuring it, it was
found &c have ba. - acres. i; is
desirable, in fact, indispensable for
good work, that farmer should know
how many acres each field contains.
for otherwise he cannot apportion
seed or manure for it, nor can he tell
how much time it should require to be
plowed. A measuring cord should be
part of the furniture on every farm.
TO make one, procure G7 feet of strong
rope, one inch around; make loop or
fastcn Il ring or bar at each end, and
make these precisely 6G feet apart.
This is four rods. Then tie piece of
red rag in the centre. One acre of
ground will be piece four Of these
cords tchains) long and two and one
hall wide. equal to IL by 10 rods,
making 100 square rods 10 one acre.
The advantages Of the ring or loop is
that one person can measure alone by
driving Il stake in the ground to hold
the rope while he stretches it out.
The rope should be soaked in tar and
dried which will prevent it from
shrinking when wet

KEY WEST, April 26.-Accorling TO
statements Of the family Of Arthur
Arosteguy. the British vice consul at
Havana, who arrived on the British
ship Ny rtlelene, great excitement pre-
walls in Has ana, and at the time the
Myrtledene left port, the people were
leaving for the open country in all
directions
At Mariana, just oatside of Havana,
a train was held up by an excited crowd
eager to escape. The alarm was caused
by the firing fsom the Santa Clara bat
terry.
Wheat jumped in price from "a to so

OK BOARD THE FLAGSHIP New YORK.
OFF HAVANA, April 26.-The early morn
ing hours yesterday were taken up by;
vigorous chasing of moving lights. II
only vessel spoken was the Britt!
schooner Iolanthe of Windsor, N.
She was allowed to proceed. She wa
just out of Matanzas
No shots have been fired since Mon
day morning on either side.
The Dolphin and the converted yacht
Eagle arrived from Key West. The
Dolphin carried the officers and prize
crews that had been placed on the
steamer Pedro and the schooner Antonio.
All were glad to get back, although
they said they had had no trouble with
their prizes.
The torpedoboat Porter made dar-
ing trip into the shore under cover of
darkness, and Lieutenant Fremont, her
commander, landed with small party
and obtained valuable information. The
blockade continues under beautiful
weather conditions.
The flagship returned to the blockade
line after an uneyentful trip. Nothing
of Importance apparently had occurred
during her absence. When darkness
came on Moro castle showed a power
full searchlight and flashed it nervously
around the horizon.
Another short searchlight also was
seen. 1t looked to from the direction
of the Santa Clara batteries to the west
ward of II Moro. The searchlight
itself could not be distinguished, only
its rays being visible. Thisis due either
to the extremely low position of the
light or to its distance from the block
ade line. The MORO light is placed

was the first time these searchlights
have been used. What benefit they
will be to the Spaniards no one knows.
They may possibly induce the batteries
to expend some more ammunition in
futile shots at the fighting squadron,
but the blockade continues as before,
searchlights or no searchlights, as of
course, they do not reach far enough to
show our ship.
If any ships run the blockade they
will have to run gauntlet of vigilance
that has never been surpassed. The
alertness of the officers and men con-
tinues at the same place as was exhibited
the first night the squadron arrived.
Admiral Sampson is more handicapped
in his blockade than were the naval
commanders during the Civil war. In
many cases they were unable to anchor,
while Admiral SIMPSONS feet drifts
around in two-knot current, with no
stationary shore light for guide. 1t is
believed that every steamer which has
attempted to enter Havana since the
blockade began has been captured.

The Troops of this State viii Rem

CHARLESTON. w. Va, April H.
Orders TO mobolize the National
Guard will probably be sent out to-
morrow, and by Tuesday Or Wednes-
day the several companies of the State
militia will be moving toward Kan
awha City, four miles east Of Charles
ton, where they will go into camp and
be made ready for fighting. Kanawha
City is the place where the National
Guard held an eneampment in 1893.
The quota OF men To be furnished
from this State will be 1889, under
the Presidents cal FOL l25, 900 This
Will take one full regiment Of 1000
men and Il battalion Of 400. The
first regiment win probably he recruit
ed to its maximum strength of a
thousand men, and the Second regi-
ment, which at present contains
about 500 men, will probably go as a
DdUldllOu.
There will be no trouble in recruit
ing the several companies to their
maximum numbers. The only trouble
will be in resisting the appeals of
those who are anxious to go to war;
Gov. Atkinson says that no less than
fifty men have applied to him for per-
mission to raise regiments and each
one wants TO be first on the list of
those who are to get that permission.
The applications from men who want
to form companies OF volunteers run
up into the hundreds. Applications
to enlist as privates come from all
classes and conditions of men. Whole
lodges Of American Mechanics Knights
of Pythias and others want to form
themselves into military companies
to fight the Spaniards. 1t is believed
that the two Virg Mas alone could
furnish enough soldiers to whip Spain
If all were permitted to go to war who
want to go.
