DR.. TUPPER'S UNIQUE PRAYER.

Philadelphia. Sept. 19.-The prayer
offered up by Rev. DR.. Upper at the
inaugural ceremonies was unique in
its brevity, and when he had COM
pleted the single sentence of the in
vocation and retired the audience was
somewhat uncertain as to whether that
was all OF II. The prayer complete was
as follows:
Lord! we ask Thee to let Thy face
shine upon this glorious day. Amen"
This has only been surpassed In
brevity by the prayer of the late Ly-
man BeecheI at Boston dinner, when
he invoked the Divine blessing in the
following laconic words: Lord, bless
the victuals." and sat down. But Mr..
Beecher had been compelled TO wait a
long time for the beginning OF the re-
past. DR.. Upper did not have this
incentive

WONDERFUL EXHIBITION
Some Of the Great Features Of tho First
Greater America Exposition.
thE SUPERB ELECTRICAL DISPLAY
From July TO November tho City Of
Omaha WIN Welcome visitors to n
Magnificent Exhibition,

Since the institution OF the first
primitive fair for the exchange Of
wares among ancient tradesmen, II
has been grander and more interesting
than Jts immediate predecessors. The
Greater America Exposition will be no
exception to this rule. In the variety
and novelty of Its educational and
amusement features 1t will without
question surpass the exposition Of 1898.
Its exhibits are not only more numer-
Gus, but more novel and instructive
than were those of year ago. The
amusement concessions, also more nu-
merous, present many novelties and
all are grander In design and propor-
tions than those OF any former exposi-
tion. The illumlnations and pyrotech-
nical displays will be upon a scale of
magnihcence heretofore not attempted,
and line Of special features and days
is contemplated Of almost sensational
interest.
One Of the crownlng features OF
the exposition is the electrical illuml-
nation, The display OF last year was
conceded to be the most effective ever

Of three coaches and n caboose, con.

Of about thirty miles per hour, on Its

mile race track which has been built
on the north tract aud where races will
be run at night. This Is 10 be one Of
the novel features OF the exposition.
Enough to say that the experience
OF last year has been utilized TO tho
full, that tho dark places have been
touched as with the wand OF wiz
ard, and that Electrical SuDerln.end-
ent Rustln has prepared a fairy scene
brilliant and gorgeous beyond compar-
ison.
In the mater OF exhibits the First
Greater America Colonial Exposition
has been most fortunate. When tho
exposition was first talked OF some
doubt was expressed as to the possible
ity Of securing a sufficient number OF
attractive exhibits to flll the immense
buildings but that doubt has been OBJ
scured by the necessity of economlzlhg
space In order that all who applied
might be accommodated. The United
States government building contains
q special exhibit, The Vntre contents
Of the famous Libby Prison War Mu-
scum are displayed. 1t Is composed Of
the relics OF the wars OF this nation,
and is of great historical importance
and value. In one part OF the building
will be shown an immense collection
Of the relies and trophies of the late
war with Spain; the campaign In Gu
ba and Porto Rico, Frold the Philip
pine islands will come four car loads
of curious and interesting exhibits,
relies OF Dewey's famous victory, tro-
phles Of the war in and about Manila,
and interesting objects collected from
various parts of the islands. In addl-
ton to all this will be the regular gov
ernment exhibit of life-saving appara-
tus, ETC., and In corner Of the build
ing the fisheries exhibit will be shown.
The display in all the principal
buildings gives promise of far surpass-

there Is demand for more space than
can be found. In the way of live ex-

1T is probable that this exposition
will surpass, in extent and variety, all
previous efforts. Machinery Hall will
be filled with this exhibit, Silk weav-
Ing from the beginning with the raw
silk to the completion of the cloth;
the manufacture OF hats, from the raw
material to the finished article; in
short, hundred different articles of

Brilliant Kansas Lawyer and Politician
No More.
ARKANSAS CITY, Kan, July III.
V. Beekman, politician and lawyer,
died last night under circumstances
which will lead to an investigation.
At about half past 10 o'clock last night
a woman giving her name as May Mil.
Ter notified tho police that Judge
Beekman was dead at her house. The
police found the body in the woman's
room, but have not decided whether
he died from natural causes or COM
mitted suicide
J. v Beekman's besetting sin was
whisky, and It pursued him all
through life. Originally n lawyer OF
fine promise and attainments, he
abandoned that profession and fled to
the pulpit in the hope of overcoming
his sin, But still it pursued him,
until finally he was expelled from the
ministry and to retrieve his fallen
fortunes he came to Kansas, settling
In the practice OF law in Chautauqua
county. Ho soon attracted attention
In Kansas by his power Of oratory
and kindly nature, but the evil drink
threw him down again, and his career
in the state has been marked by re-
peated dissipation.
