NEW YORK, July 10.-Who would

sackcloth. The ashes they get as a free
gift from the ash cart man as they pass

unregenerate ash cart drivers enjoy
scattering the ashes promiscuously
whenever they see a person coming

never seem to raise such clouds of the

TRIBUTE
To Memory of Founder
of Chautauqua.
H. H. Moore Urges That His Work be
Kept In Mind.

II. H. Moore. in a letter to the
Cleveland Leader eulogizes the work
of the late Lewis Miller in. organiz-
ing and prosecuting the work of the
Chautauqua. He pays a glowing
tribute to the memory of the depart
ed. In part he says:
H'Again the proceedings of the
Chautauqua Assembly are affording
columns of matter for the public
press, and for the thousandth time
historic sketches of this movement
are given, but, strange to say, not in
a single instance that we have
noticed has the name of Lewis Miller
been mentioned-a case of Hamlet
with Hamlet left out. 1t was only
last January that Mr.. Miller passed
away, and so soon forgotten!
The undisputed fact is that the
local Chautauqua idea originated and
was initiated by Lewis Miller, of
Akron, o. For the time spent and
the labor performed he received no
compensation except the conscious
ness of doing good and seeing reared
his own monument. We must not
forget him, but keep his work in
mind and his name fresh and green
for years and years to come"

ought to gather at the ankles, but
somehow the vicious and sinful things

ing them together at the bottom. The
waist portion should be high in the
neck, with yoke. gathered waist, belt
and half long sleeves. This last is a
concession impossible to imagine as
having come from the deeply religious
authorities at Asbury and Ocean Grove
II is curious circumstance that while
Asbury is bright, snappy, up to date

lors and drug stores, the laws regarding
bathing dresses and public decorum in
general are far more stringent there
than in Ocean Grove, which lives and
has its being almost on purpose to draw
together the most religious of all the
country. This is place where you
couldn't fire peashooter without hit

to me the most charming spot on this
side the continent. OF course ii does
not count with Monterey, Santa Cruz
and dozen other of our California sea-
side places, but for the Atlantic it does
the best it can, and it is good best.
Well, at Ocean Grove women wear
whatever they like without restriction;
but, like all things where one has per-
feet liberty, there is no abuse Of the
privileges. The bathing suits are mod
est, but are made in a snugger and
much safer style. All that great weight
CT flannel is enough to hamper the pow
ers of the strongest swimmer. So, dear
ladies, if you go to Asbury to spend the
summer arrange to do your bathing at
Ocean Grove do not wish to ridicule
Asbury Park, for if its founder had not
fought doughtily as he has fer years it
might have degenerated into a place
entirely unfit for families. AS it is
now, it is really an ideal spot for them,
especially children. Children are made
welcome here. and it seems as if Mr.
Bradley had never wearied Of devisipg
amusements for them.

rows of dark blue ribbon shirred on

two rows. The lawn was in two shades
of blue. The skirt and waist were lined
with red, which gave elusive purple
shades as the folds were displaced
Over this was tunic of the new shade
called violac china Grape. This came to

OMAHA. July 1.-THE Greater
America exposition is now on in all its
flory, and judged By the opening
days. it will be a tremendous success
The gates which were thrown open
on July /. will remain open until Nov
/, and through them will swarm mui-
titudes of spectators They will find no
dearth Of entertainment. The 1000
acres which compose the exposition
grounds are crowded with things TO see
and richly worth seeing-not too
crowded, however fox convenience and
pleasing artistic effect.
This exposition is in measure the
outgrowth of last wears Transmissis-
sippi exposition, though cast in some
what larger mold and with nlnch
wider scope. 1t is no parochial fair.
but as big as its name implies. BY vir-
tue of the magnitude and wide range
of its exhibits it has right to call it
self the Greater America exposition.
The present company acquired by pur-
chase the grounds and the twenty or
more large buildings of the exposition
of 1898, which represent an expendi
ture of about 81, 0O0, 900 The build
ings have been pat in thorough repair
and frightened up generally, so that
they are as attractive and artistic as
ever. There has been much new con-
struction, enlargement OF facilities and
improvement Of grounds.
The war with Spain was doubtless a
0etriment to the exposition of 1893, as
it engrossed the attention of thousands
of intending visitors and prospective
exhibitors as well as lessened the local
interest. But there are compensations.
The war which hurt the fair last year,
will help to make it a great success this
year 1.-The fiHits of the war" is made
the great card of the exposition,
though in no sense to the disparage-
ment of other exhibits. While 'the
colonial exhibit will be big feature
and d nlarvelonsly attractive and in
structive one it is only one of the
many features which will cause the
exposition here in this thriving inland
city to rank among the worlds great

IN BEHALF OF TRUTH.

Several weeks ago, MIR. keiiey'
member of the Board of Education
from the Third ward, presented the
following unique resolution to the
Board:
s.Resolved, That committee OF
five members of the Board De
Instructed to inquire into the con-
ducting and management OF the pup
lie schools. That said committee
use al possible means to ascertain
the true condition and make report
will: recommendations as soon as
possibie. The committee to be ap-
pointed by the chair"
Believing perhaps that aresolutioh
of that kind needed some eXplana-
ton, Mr.. Kelley said:
"In view of the misunderstanding.
the rumors and the accusations made
against the conduct of our schools.
and having in mind the fair iame OF
ourschools, [ believe an investigation
should be made and truth again
placed on its pedestal. "
So the people took the investlga-
ton for what it was worth-as an at
tempt to have truth again placed on
its pedestal
The Investigation has been fin
ished. If the people are to conclude
anything from what Mr.. Kelley and
certain of his associate members
upon the Board are saying in private,
it is that Truth has not been placed
upon her pedestal.
Here is subiect-matter for another
resolution. VIII fallen Truth find
another worthy champion? Time
may tell.
