Congressman Kehoe is showing
greater interest in Big Sandy
river improvement than has ever
been evidenced by any other Rep
rssentativs FROM this district. He
is going about it In that same thor
ongh, practical manner that char
acterlzes all his work. How could
he better prepare himself for the
effort than by going over the ground
and personally examining ourgreat
resources? The knowledge gained
in this way will be worth more
than all he can acquire by reading
and hearsay. The improvement
OF Big Sandy is no bunco game,
and the closer inspection We can
get from officials the more readily
they will appropriate funds.

UNIQUE LOVE TEST.

When u Big Sandlan goes away

hear from him, and we are rarely
disappointed. Regardless OF color
or sex, the fsculty for gaining dis.
tinCtion seems inherent The lat
est is the CAGE OF colored Kate,

America from Paris when Thomas JEFF
ferson was minister to France, by
Houdon, with the expectation of re-
ceiving an order from congress 10 have
it east in bronze. This was, however,
destroyed when the capitol was
burned, and this statuette is the only
survival. II was presented TO the
United States by the Rt. Hon. George
Young, of Edinburgh, Scotland. Many
relics of Washington are exhibited, in
GLIDING a quaint pair of eye glasses
given by him to Lafayette, and re-
turned to this country by the heirs of
Lafayette after his death, all of Wash
ington's letters TO congress, the sword
which Washington wore during the
war of the revolution and other souv-
enirs of the Father of His Country.
Many handsome swords were pre-
scented to the first president, but it was
this plain old blade which Washington
unsheathed when he took command of
the army, and with which he fought
throughout the long and unequal
struggle. The papers of Benjamin
Franklin, James Madison. James Mon
roe, Alexander Hamilton and many
others are also exhibited.
A curious specimen of state paper
from the emperor of China to the
president of the United States derives
special interest from the present
status of affairs in that country. This
letter, which nobody can read, was
brought over by Ii Hung Chang,
wrapped up in about two yards of yell
low silk most deliberately embroidered.
This envelope" is also exhibited.
A number of historic swords are dis
played, but after that of Washington
probably comes the sword of Gen. An
drew jackson, with which some good,
honest fighting was done. The SPLEEN
didly ieweled swords and presents re-
eeived by Gen. Grant cannot fail TO
command admiration. Another SUI
perb article exhibited is a medal pre-
scented by the sultan of Turkey 10 the
United States in commemoration of
the four hundredth anniversary of
the discovery of America. This medal
rests in a wreath of golden oak
leaves and acorns that glitter with
diamonds There is a fine display OF
other medals sent to this country by
foreign potentates, some of them be-
ing very artistic and costly. Another
object of interest is a large silken flag
woven in one piece, and given TO this
country by $4,000 weavers of Lyons,
France, as an expression of their SYM
pathy when President Lincoln was as
sassinated. There is fine collection
of foreign coins exhibited.
The walls of the section are orna-
mented with portraits of the secreta-
ries of state and photographs of the
buildings occupied by the department
of state, with some of the handsom-
est interiors. The diplomatic room
makes a fine picture. Portraits of all

was found among the ruins of theAc-
ropolis, and belongs to the age of Peri
cles. 1t is a treaty between the Athena
ans and Chalcideans. The translation,
made by Prof. Basil Gildersleeve,
Johns Hopkins university, accom-
panies it. 1t was sent TO the United
States department of state by Gen.
Merideth Read when he was minister
to Greece, but has never before been
permitted to leave the department.
building at Washington. Another
curious treaty" is in the form of the
tooth of sea monster, presumably
shark, sent to the president of the
United States by the chief of the Fiji
islands. There are many others, but
these two represent the extremes of
foreign diplomatic negotiations.
The workings of the diplomatic and
consular bureau, both of vast inn
portance to our country, are fully il
Illustrated by official documents, letters
and photographs. Autograph letters
from many of our most distinguished
ambassadors, ministers and consuls
general are displayed, also, the forms
and blanks used in conducting the dip
lomatic and consular work of the
United States in foreign countries.
There is a large collection of photo
graphs of the more important or
more picturesque towns to which this
government has sent consuls. Among
these is a photograph of Trebizond,
Alden and other out-of-the-way places,
of which the average tourist knows
very little.
Mai. William II. Michael, chief clerk
of the department of state, is here in
charge. He has arranged the exhibit
with great taste. He has just COM
pleted history of the department of
state, illustrated with portraits of the
men who have been secretaries of
state from the time of Thomas Jeffer-
son to the present incumbent, which
he will give away from his desk. Maj.
Michaels was made chief clerk of the
department of state when the late
Senator Sherman became secretary of
state. He enlisted at the age of 10 in
the federal army, was severely wound
ed in the battle of Shiloh, and refused
to be discharged from the service of
his country in spite of severe wounds,
from which he still suffers. He served
his country with distinguished gal
lantry in war. and has been no less
jealous in heE behalf in times of peace.
He wields trenchant pen, has edited
one or more party organs, has filed
high official positions in the city of
Washington, especially in connection
with the senate committee on printing.
and has rendered his party other dis
tinguished services. He is very much
interested in the exhibit he has gotten
together for the Pan-American expo
sition, and which was installed under
his immediate supervision.

a THE visitor 10 the Pan-Ameri-
~ can exposition enters the cen
trial door of the Government
building the first thing that strikes
the eye is a large scroll of red on which
is written in golden letters The State
Department" At all government ex-
hibits precedence is given this de-
partment, because il was first created
by George Washington when he was
chosen president of the United States.
For this reason the exhibit of the de-
partment of state occupies the most
conspicuous position in the Govern
ment building at all expositions.
Other objects which Immediately
arrest the attention are fine portraits
of the president of the United States
and the vice president. that of Mr..
Roosevelt being particularly good.
These hang on each side of a magnifi-
cent picture of the United States cap
itol. a building which compares IA
vorably with any in the world. Near
this group is what is known as the
Great Seal of State" painted on silk.
This seal, in miniature, of course, is
affixed TO all official correspondence
between the president and foreign rul-
ers. Among other and instructive ar
ticles in the state department is the
original draft Of the Declaration of
independence. written by Thomas JEFF
ferson, with interlineations in the
handwriting of John Adams and Ben
jamin Franklin. The old-fashioned
desk on which Jefferson wrote il is
also shown. There is a small bronze
equestrian statue of George Washing
ton by Baron Marchette. from the
original study and model of his mas
ter, NJ. Houdon. This was sent to
