OPEN DOOR In CHINA.

WASHINGTON, November S.-The
United States government has taken a
firm stand for the open door" policy
in China, asking the governments of
Europe for definite assurances that
there is to be no interruption to the
access of American trade to the interior
of China through the open treaty ports.
A favorable response has already
been received from Germany. 1t is
said that Russia and France, with
some of the lesser nations, are likely to
be the only DIRECTORS to this policy.

on the north tract and where races will
be run at night. This Is to be one Of
the novel features OF the exposition.
Enough to say that the experience
Of last year has been utilized to the
full. that the dark places have been
touched as with the wand of wiz
ard, and that Electrical Superintend-
ent Rustin has prepared fairy scene
brilliant and gorgeous beyond compar-
ison.
In the mater Of exhibits the First
Greater America Colonial Exposition
has been most fortunate. When the
exposition was first talked Of some
doubt was expressed as to the POSSIBLE
ity Of securing sufficient number of
attractive exhibits to fill the immense
buildings. but that doubt has been OBJ
scured by the necessity of economlzing
space in order that all who applied
might be accommodated. The United
States government building contains
a special exhibit. The untlre 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 relics and trophies Of the late
war with Spain; the campaign in Gu
ba and Porto Rico. Frola the Philip
pine islands will come four car loads
Of curious and interesting exhibits,
relics of Dewey's famous victory, tro-
plies of the war in and about Manila,
and interesting objects collected from
various parts of the islands. In addi-
ton to all this will be the regular gov
eminent exhibit of life-saving appara-
tus, ETC., and in a corner of the build
ing the fisheries exhibit will be shown.

WONDERFUL EXHIBITION
Bone Of the Great Features Of the First
Greater America Exposition.
the SUPERB ELECTRICAL DISPLAY
From July to November the CITY Of
Omaha WIN Welcome Visitors to .
Magnificent Exhibition.

Since the institution Of the first
primitive fair for the exchange of
wares among ancient tradesmen, 1t
has been grander and more Interesting
than Its immediate predecessors. The
Greater America Exposition will be no
exception to this rule. In the variety
and novelty OF it's 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 proper
lions than those of any former EXPOSE
ton. The illuminations and pyrotech-
nical displays will be upon scale Of
magnificence heretofore not attempted,
and line Of special features and days
is contemplated of almost sensational
interest.
One OF the browning features Of
the exposition is the electrical illumi-
nation. The display of last year was
conceded to be the most effective ever

Not Ashamed to Pray Daily During the
Santiago Campaign.


General Wheeler is a religious man. He
was brought up in the Episcopal church,
with a great reverence for sacred things
ana faith in the efficacy of prayer One
of his former secretaries tells the story
that while the general was engaged In il
canvass for Congress some years ago he
spent the night at the plantation of a
constituent. His host accompanied him to
his room at bed time, and babe him good
night. but. being reminded that the gen.
eral might want a glass of cool water be-
fore retiring, he carried a pitcher to the
room and entered without knocking. He
was surprised to find General Wheeler
upon his knees before the bed engaged
IN his devotions. He waited reverently
until the general arose, and apologized
Tor the Interruption.
Don't mention it." said General Wheel
er. II think all of us ought to kneel be-
fore we retire, and thank our good Maker
for his mercies and blessings"
The members of General Wheeler's staff
say that during the Santiago campaign
no never lay down to sleep without offer
ing without thanking God for his protec-
ton and preservation.
It fs not generally known that General
Wheeler was educated in the North, and
appointed to West Point from the state
lof New York instead of Alabama. His
parents died when he was n child of 8
Year,. and he was sent to the care of rel
latlves at Cheshire. Connecticut. where he
spent his boyhood. His appointment to
West Point was given him by a congress-
man OF his own name, John Wheeler for :

The increase OF the traffic on the east

Of the Siberian railroad has surpassed all
appreciation. Its construction was orig.
lnAlly planned on economical lines, but
the pessimist forecasts of little or no
movement for some years to come are
being falsified by the facts. Everything
was calculated for not more than three
pairs of trains per twenty-four hours,
whereas there are already eight pairs,
besides the bi-weekly express from Mos
cow to Krasnovodsk. The last year,
tTaflc returns of the Western Siberia n
section show. $4,000 passengers. nearly
go. 900 tons Of freight, and 100000 peasant
em1grants. Last winter, although 600
pew trucks were added and LOGO old ones
borrowed, there was an accumulation of
1000 truck loads of goods for which no
means Of transport could be found. OF
the $50. 900 tons carried over the railway
IN 1855, more than $4,000 tons consisted OF
