Paris, France, July End, 1900.
Paris and the Chicago Exposition.
American visitors at Paris this sum-
mer are engaged in more or less con-
slant process Of comparing the EXPOSE
ton of 1900 with that Of 1898. 1t is
not easy to grasp SO great and complex
a subject as a worlds fair and in max
ing comparisons good many superficial
things have been written and IA good
many partial things.
In the architecture Of the Paris ex-
position, the contrast with Chicago is
marked. The white City" revealed
to the astonished visitor a harmony cx-
tending throughout It's every portion
The architecture was simple, and yet
inexpressibly digniiied and beautiful.
The architecture at Paris is more biz

than at Chicago, but less dignity. The
deep and lasting joy Of the harmony OF
all things within the white City" is
not felt here.
While at Chicago the gardener and
road builder art were in evidence in
the perfection of the grounds, there are
few things which detract more from the
success Of the PARIS exposition than the
condition of the walks. At about the
time OF the opening of the exposition,
the natural earth walks which had en-
veloped the workmen in clouds Of dust
were covered by a layer of pebbles the
size of hickory nut. 1t has been left
to the visitors 10 plod through this
gravel pit and slowly and painfully
tread it into smooth walks. The smooth
walk has so far only emerged in a few
places and there in dry weather clouds
of dust have their origin, in wet wealth.

that a pedestrian, at the close of day 3
journey about the grounds is covered
with dust. The dust is carried into
the buildings and settles everywhere,

protected in glass cases.
Turning to the exhibits one has first
to observe that the present exposition
is more truly international than at

The President made it plain that the

for his speedy return to Washington,
We're bad guessers, when he telegraphed
for Gov. Allen, Of Porto Rice, who was
in Washington tor several days, to come
to Canton to talk over Porto Rican
matters. Gov. Allen will spend a week
or two with his family, in Massachu-
sets, before returning to Porto Rico.
He reports the new civil government to
be moving smoothly, and the Porto Ri
cans to be gradually falling into the
ways of living in keeping with the new
conditions, and thinks the island
destined to become very prosperous.

Somehow the Secretary of War has
been pretty generally credited with tav,
oring the ultimate annexation of Cuba
and with believing it to be inevitable,
although there is no record Of his hay
ing publicly said as much. He said a
day or two ago that he did not think
the question of annexation would be
considered by the Constitutional Con-
vention soon to be held in Cuba; that
he believed the Cubans wanted indie
pendence and not annexation; and that
in any event the question of annexation
should not be considered, much less set
tied, until they had the absolute indie
pendence which this government is
pledged to give them, and that they
would be wise to ascertain whether their
request would be fayorably acted upon,
before they asked for annexation. Those
who ought TO know most about the sub
iect, express the opinion that it will re.
quire year or two of Cuban indepen-
dent government to crystallze the an
nexation sentiment, on the island as
we'll as in the United States, and that
it will be business and not sentiment
that will force the matter to the front.

what has occurred in Pekin for fear OF
its effect upon the nations whose cltl-
zens have been murdered. There is
much criticism Of the slowness of Japan
