states.
A bill was introduced in Con-
gress a short time ago appropria-
ting money from the treasury in
aid of the st. Louis Exposition,
which it is proposed to hold in
1903, in celebration of the Centen-
NAL of the Louisiana Purchase,
and the special committee appoin-
ted to report on the measure will
give a final hearing to the Missou-
ri delegation next week. In view
of the fact that the Louisiana pur-
chase was one of the most fortu-
nate and important events in our
history it is fair to assume that
the country will approve the grant
of a substantial sum of money for
the Centennial.

BILE the entire North America.
The sun will begin to enter the
shadow about $50 in the morning;
by 7:3O it will be in total eclipse
and at $50 will emerge from the
shadow.
On the effects of a total eclipse
of the sun, the New York Journal
makes the following interesting
observations:
An unnatural chill comes into
the air.
People are nervous and excited,
while children cling to their mo-
theirs in fright.
Birds futter about in consterna-
ton and seek their nests.
/ Chickens 60 to roost as the dark
ness approaches.
Cows go home from pasture.
They stop chewing their cuds and
sniff the air as if fearing a storm.
Horses in harness are brighten
ed at familiar objects, and those
loose in the fields run about dis
tractedly.
Beasts of prey grow ferocious
and attack human beings boldly.
The sudden change of light and
heat make peculiar electrical con-
ditions, which are probably the
cause of excitability in all living
things.
The young of all creatures run
to their mothers in fear, while the
males among the animals seek
their mates to protect them.
While the darkness lasts there
is brooding dullness among all
living things except dogs and
wolves. These set up snappish
yelping quite different from the
ordinary bark or night howl.
Ignorant and superstitious peo-
pie have an abject fear of some
great calamity they know moi
what.
In the total eclipse of July 80
1878, in the United States, ne.
gro seized with frenzy killed his
wife and three children.
Just before the eclipse becomes

divided into seperate beams that
come down quivering and slanting

the direction of the Secretary OF
the Treasury, and the stipulation
is that no part of the money ap-
propriated shall be available until
the citizens of st. Louis and Mis-
souri, shall have raised and expen-
ded the sum of slO,OOO,0OO. The
expenditure of the money is in
this way wisely safeguarded and
gives assurance that. the Missou-
rians will do their share in fur
thering the great enterprise be-
fore money from the Federal tre-
asury is used.
Quite a number of the leading
newspapers in the East are urging
Congress to help the Centennial.
For instance, the Philadelphia
Ledger says if Congress cannot
see it's way to grant $5,OOO,OOO it
should appropriate at least gen.
erous sum to celebrate an event
which added to the territory OF
the United States such a large and
rich domain. The Ledger also
says:
"The Louisiana Purchase
brought under the Stars and Stri-
pes a vast empire, including the
then unknown and unexplored re-
gion west of the Mississippi river.
The statesmen who were response
BILE for the acquisition builded bet
ter than they knew, since to this
day much of the present limits of
the United States was included in
the great unknown land coded in
1903 to the United States by Ma
poleon.
The purchase included parts of
Alabama and Mississippi, the
whole of the present States of
Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri,
Iowa, Nebraska and the Dakotas;
Minnesota, west of the Mississip-
pi; nearly all CT Kansas; the whole
of the Indian Territory and the
parts of Colorado, Wyoming and
Montana lying east of the Rockies,
and some authorities hold that the
French rights, to which we sue
ceeded, gave us under the pur-
chase the domain extending to the
Pacific and including Idaho, Ore
gon and the States of Washington.
Our title to Oregon has been "de-
duced from other sources" how
ever, and the question as to its in
clusion within the territory of the
Louisiana purchase is disputed.
For this great empire, constitu-
ting half the United States and
now peopled by millions, where
only century ago the Indian and
the buffalo roamed at will, was
bought for the sum of $15,0OO,-
OOO'.
Senator Culberson, of Texas,
claims the right of his State to
participate in the celebration as a
part of the purchase. The Uni
ted States received the French
rights in 1903, and Texas was
French territory, though in oul
treaty of 1919 with Spain we c.
ded the territory which now inclu.
des Texas.

be great national event, marking
one of the grandest feasts Estates.

Farmers In this section OF tho country
find very little profit in raising cattle
for market nowadays, and Wilmington
il supplied almost entirely from the

Chester county, Pa, but the conditions
have charged.
Very few cattle are being wintered ia
Chester county this season, with the
exception Of the dairy herds, which are
kent all through the year, says the
West Chester Local News. Formerly
every farmer bought up herd in the
fall and kept them until spring, expect
| inc TO realize a nice profit on account
Of the increase In weight and possible
advance in price. With the coming Of
! tbe refrigerator car and the fast freight,
the Industry In Chester county has
wnned, and farmers can not compete
with their rivals in the West, who
handle immense herds and can afford
to sell at lower prices.
There was not drove OF sheep IN
Chester county last winter so far as I
know, held for fattening, and you could
not buy one anywhere in this section,
said Henry G. Meredith last evening.
at used to be that the farmers coulo
buy them up in the fall and sell In The
sprinp, at good advantage, but thu
Westerpers got to raising the prices b,
holding back their cattle in fall, ant
lowering the figures by pushing thu
stock upon the market in the spring
This discouraged the Eastern farmers
: who gave up trying.
"Speaking Of quality in beef," b
continued, II do not care much for tn
Jersey cattle. You take a Jersey AM
, groom and blanket her just as yo
: would horse. and she will give I'm
quality of milk, but Durham or Hol
stein will do about as well If given tn
same kind OF care. The Jersey calve
do not make such good veal. The large
. fieshier breeds will do better
: "The little Maryland cattle we use
4 to handle were good for beef. The
4 we're not much taller than good size
dog, but their flesh was nice. The
u would grow as fat as hogs and as tendt
