It is asserted that the Pan American
exposition next year at Buffalo is already
assuming such proportions as to promise
to fairly rival if not surpass the Worlds
Fair at Chicago. This show will bring
together an exhibit Of the resources and
methods and progress of North. Central
and South America and the islands Of the
sea. It viii be very attractive and Is so
central ir location that a big attendance
is assured from New York. Pennsylvania,
New Jersey, Ohio and further south,
while Ontario will be within easy reach.
Low rates will be made from all points,
SO that for the matter of Szs one can
spend some days at fine great exposition.
In many respects this will be even better
than costly trip requiring many months
to get an equally good idea of all parts of
the United States and Canada, as well as
Central and South America.

The first title Frank r. Stockton chose
for his recently published novel, "A Bicy-
Gle of Cathay, was "A Cycle of Cathay.'
Before sending the book to the press,
however, he learned that DR. w A Mar
tin had published an historical work on
China, called "a Cycle of cathay, now
in its seventh thousand. The two books
were utterly dissimilar, and it is an odd.
coincidence that Identical titles should
have been chosen aud that Mr. Stockton's
book should have made its appearance
simultaneously with DIR Martins arrival
from Pelsin. AS soon as Mr. Stockton
learned OF DIR Martins book he changed
the title to its present one.

Surgeon Lippitt a Brave Fighter.

Capt John T. Myers, who commanded
the marines of the American Legation at
Pekin during the critical period of the
seige, in his official report to the Navy
Departmental Washington makes special
mention OF the conduct of Surgeon Lip
Pitt, and speaks in warm praise of his
services. He says he did not hesitate to
expose himself to the severe fire of the
Chinese when the necessity arose. and
that he received his wound July 10Th
while crossing the courtyard of the lega-
ton. He further states:
:" respectfully commend to the con-
sideraticn of the Commandments Chief the
conduct Of Asst. Surg. T. u. Lippitt, who
not only performed all his professional
duties thoroughly, but upon two occasions
took a purely military part. The first of
these occurred when the captain of the
Colt gun crew, having misunderstood
orders, was taking his piece TO the wrong
position DR. Lippitt followed under a
heavy fire, and assisted IN bringing the
piece back and guiding it to the place
originally assigned the second, when he
helped to take the Austrian one FOUNDER
on the wall and place it in position"
