OUR BOARD OF TRADE

The contemplated excursion of the
Board of Trade to the Philadelphia ex-
port exposition, which was talked of
earlier in the season, will not in all pro-
liability be made. Il was thought that
such an excursion would interest local
manufacturers and business men, and
the arrangements were only deferred
until the president and secretary of the
board returned from Philadelphia. Now
that both of them are back and have
made known their impressions, it does
not appear probable that such a pro-
ject will be undertaken. 1t is their
opinion that the exposition has been
greatly overestimated. Except for a
few large displays the exposition as a
whole does not compare favcrably with
the Atlanta exposition of 1895. The
most important feature of the Phila-
delphia exposition was the congresses
of commerce at which were present re-
representatives. of the various countries
with which we have or endeavor to
have commercial relations.
AS an exposition calculated to be of
benefit from a business standpoint TO
New England manufacturers it has not
been the success contemplated. The

THE BILL AT THE PARK.
A Program of Unusual Strength Offered
For the Week.


For the Week.
This is banner week at the Park
theatre with nine acts of the best sort
Two additions have been made to the
advertised bill, The Broadway Trio"
and Cyr and Hill in a singing act. The
show is opened with Prof. Sherman and
his trained goats, which not only go
through an interesting performance.
but even speak after a fashion. After
them comes the Broadway trio in new
song act, which is very good, and this
is followed by Mr.. and Mrs. Augustin
Melville in their burlesque. "A Rehear-
sal with Interruptions" which is moth
ing but nonsense of the funniest sort
and winds up with grand descent into
the internal regions by Mr.. Melville in
the character of Romeo. Veron. the
ventriloquist, is one of the best of his
sort ever seen in Worcester. He has a
number of figures which he makes
speak and sing. and especially good is
the trio consisting of a soprano, tenor
and baritone, which sings an old fash
Toned song with good effect
The three Dunbar sisters have a song
and dance act of a rather unusual ma
ture, and seem to have just stepped out
of the chorus of some Casino success in
New York and come to Worcester for
the week Joseph Newman, a young
Denver man, makes his first appearance
in Worcester with number of original
comic songs. He is full OF dry humor
and his songs take well, not only on
account of their merits but because of
the spirit he puts into them Lille Wes-
tern, the instrumentalist, is an artist in
the musical line. She plays on the CON
certina, bells, military drum and xylo-
phone with telling effect The shading
in her work on the xylophone is marvel
GUS for such an unresDonsive instru-
ment, and she is doing much to bring
the much abused concertina into favor
with the better class of performers. The
long bill is closed with the comedy ac-
robatic act of the three Sa Vans who
have improved much since they were
here last year. Cyr and HILL the chill
dren singers, who were also here last
season, have improved much, both in
action and voice, and give a most cred
liable performance.

THE NEW CAMPAIGN.

With the conclusion of the rainy sea-
son, Otis is beginning his first heavy
campaign. Gen. Wheaton, with a
formidable array of troops, has been
ordered to take Dagupan, the Filipi-
nos northern stronghold in Luzon. AS
it is through this city that Aguinaldo
and his followers derive their supply
of ammunition, all military authorities
have urged that this town be occupied
before. But the small force at Otis
disposal precluded military operations
except in the immediate vicinity of Ma
Mia.
To the unmilitary critic, the obvious
method of reducing the Filipinos to
submission is to cut off their supply of
arms and ammunition. When pow
der fails, the Filipinos' belligerent
spiritwill subside with remarkablequick-
ness. The difficulties in the way hither-
to have been the inadequate military
and naval forces in the Philippines.
But these drawbacks have been par
TALLY remedied, and whether or not
filibustering is entirely stopped in the
islands, it is almost certain that
enough ammunition will be seized to
cause the instruction to dwinde. AT
all events. the landing of so large a
force in a new portion of the island
cannot but have a salutary moral eff

THE ELECTION TODAY.

The state election today will not be
important so far as any change in policy
is concerned, but it will be important
from one standpoint, in the fact that it
will foretell in a measure the probable
strength of the two prominent parties
in the presidential contest, now almost
upon us.
The result of the contest today will
simply be question of the size of the
republican majority and the net re-
publican gains in the various sections
of the state. The campaign just closed
has been conducted along the lines of
issues, and the campaign has been ma
tional rather than local in its scope
There have been few senatorial and
representative contests, and in nearly
all of these the republican party is like
ly to come out victorious. Although
this is what is sometimes termed IAN
off year" in politics, it still remains the
solemn duty of every faithful republic
can voter to go to the polls today and
register his approval of the administra-
ton at Washington.

Capt. Oswald Ames the tallest officer
in the British army, whose six feet
eight of handsome humanity led the
great jubilee procession in 1897.
And the Duke of Roxburgh, the Duke
Of Manchester, the Earl of Shaftesbury
and the Viscount Crichton were all
suitors for the beautiful Americans
hand. Perhaps they saw even more
than her beauty-the $40, 600, 900 she will
inherit! However, nothing came of
their counting.
The Goelets gave up Wimborne
house, Park lane, London, in due time,
and now they are simply devoted to
Paris. Mrs. Goelet has told her friends
here that she intends living there al
of her youth. Her parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. r. T, Wilson, live here. Her sis
ter, Mrs, Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jr., lives
here. So does her brother, Orme Will
son, who married Miss Astor. And six
weeks before he died, her husband, SIM
pie American gentleman that he was,
said: II would rather see my daughter
in her grave than to have her marry
the Duke of Manchester. ! don't want
her to marry any foreigner
But Miss Goelet is of legal age, just
turned tweny-one, She enjoys the in
come of $4,000 900 now. And Prince
Henry hasn't a penny His father, the
Due de Charities, supports him.
THE PRINCES QUEER DEN.
He has a queer den at the top of the
Due de Charities mansion, which is
reached by a steep and winding stair
case. He is tall, straight and good
looking, with a fresh, boyish complex
ion. His chief claim to fame, outside
the fact that he would be king some
day if there were kings in France. is
derived from his duel with the. Italian
fire-eater, the Count of Turin, nephew
of the king of Italy.
1t was no French duel-the partici-
pants were both wounded The count
was slightly cut on the right hand but
the prince was severely wounded-once
in the abdomen and once in the breast.
At one time it was believed that he
would die, but medical skill, strength
and youth pulled him through. There
were five furious rounds with rapiers
at Vaucresson, 70 miles from Paris, at
a. m.
1t was because the young prince had
said that the Italians were towards and
fools in their Abyssinian fights, that
Turin challenged. He himself had made
three journeys to Abyssinia and
thought he knew something about that
remote land. Turin declared that all
Prince Henrys reported discoveries and
explorations were fakes After the
Duel, there was royalist talk of elect
ing Prince Henry president
In 1895 the princes father had to in
stitute proceedings to have his son de-
clared a bankrupt The young man had
squandered vast amount at cards
every French nobleman does that-and
his father was called on to pay the
shot, which he did, borrowing from
Baron Hirsch. But he made up his
mind not to do it again.
Prince Henry is not a brilliant con-
versationalist, nor much of a, scholar
but everybody in Paris likes him, His
best friends all say that he has the
making of fine man if he will onIy
settle down and marry some wife who
can pay the bills.
And some day he will be head of the
house of Orleans, which is the first
family in France.

The Board of Trade did not think that
cursion simply as a money making
scheme. 1t was created rather to in
tluence and stimulate local manufactur-

would naturally lead to an increase in

DIR. PERKINS, IDEA.

That was rather a radical statement
made by Rev. Dr. Perrin in Boston Sun
day, relative to the prize fight in New
York. He believed, he said, that every
spectator should be put in Jail and ev-
cry newspaper which spread out the de-
tails of the fight ought to be boycotted
for twelve months for reporting it.
That may be Dr. Perins view of it, but
it is to be doubted whether or not it's
policy as applied to an enterprising Am
erican newspaper of today would be
found. popular, to say nothing of the
profitable side of the proposition. And,
after all, profit is the prime motive of
the newspaper proprietor of today.
While, as we have already stated, we
detest the degrading and brutal fea-
lures of all such contests, it is as much
a matter of necessity to serve it up as
news as it is to report this sermon of
DR.. Perin's. Newspapers are printed
for all the people to read and not for
any particular class. Hence. the re-
ports of the prize fight.
