RARE COMBINATION,
The Floral and Electrical Display at
the Pan-A Exposition.


There is saying that Flowers are
the poetry OF earth, as stars are the
poetry OF heaven" If this be true. the
beauty Of the floral effects 10 be seen
at the Pan American Exposition will be
pronounced as a rare combination OF
Doth, Tor never yet at an exposition
have such magnificent effects been
seen as will be visible in some Of the
fountain basins at the American.
There beautiful plants and flowers,
kissed 10 n state OF dewy dazZlement
by the falling spray and the glow Of
concealed incandescent lamps. will de.
light the visitor
vt the exposition in Omaha some
little success was obtained in thus
lighting up the flowers and the foliage
or plants in the water basins. and this
has led Henry +. Rustin. chief Of the
mechanical and electrical bureau. 10 at.
tempt To enlarge upon what he accom-
pllshed In Omaha. When thus lighted.
the flowers and plants take upon them
selves new colors, each one seemingly
more beautiful than the color displayed
under full sunlight. Then the little
mystery Of where the illumination
comes from Is delightful, and. knowing
this the skilled electrician Is most care
full to conceal his lamps where least
likely TO attract the eve. Perhaps an
artificial leaf, an artificial flower. is
used to hide the lamp, but its full bril-
Iancy Is allowed to beam upon the
plant and flowers, making a picture !
that Is lasting. 1t is when such effects |
are obtained that the full appreciation !
OF enjoyment is expressed in the single |
word beautiful" II was so at Omaha.
and 1t will be more so at the Pan
American.

Editor UNION,
Dear sir
Not many years ago spicer was
about twenty miles from Walden;
Now we are about twenty-five miles.
Coming from Hebron to Spicer we
travel short distance then turn due
west, then east and so on, each turn
bringing us in view of our neighbors'
ranches.
The firm of Hanson 6, Rich has
announced its intentions to the people
Of Spicer, OF farther lengthing the
road, commencing at point near the
Mellen gate, and running Que mile
south thence to Spicer school house,
thence to a point opposite Mr. West
holm's. What hardship the herds
man may experience by having two
miles farther to drive his cattle to the
ranges, will be fully Offset by the
pleasant view he will receive Of the
neat little Spicer school house with
it's pleasant Surroundings.

FRIDAY. MARCH as. 1901.

TIE UNION had a scrap on its own
premises Thursday. The matter was
made the subject Of judicial investi-
CATION the same day, and the UNION
came out second best.
At this result We are not surprised,
bo much As disappointed. 1t is nat
tral for man to place confidence in
his fellow men of almost any grade;
and when that confidence, for good
reasons, is lost, there necessarily re-
suits a shock.
The UNION was prompted to the
proceeding To vindicate justice; but
was defeated In the effort. Law and
order, 1t must he admitted, receive q
different interpretation here in Wal
den, to almost any other place in the
civilized world. We have labored to
bring aboht different results, but so
Tar have failed. We have said-and
we repeat it--that the people Of North
Park, and Walden especially, are a
Law unto themselves. There is m
absence Of any regulation Of mems
conduct by officers or courts.
The UNION has no apology to make
for It's effort to vindicate the right,
and makes no appeal from the YER
dict, except to the good sense and
JUSTICE Of the people among whom we
live. The verdict Of jury in petty
case is one thing. Public opinion on
the same subject may be quite diff
lerent
TO the opinion quite generally ex.
pressed we must, rest the rectitude
Of our conduct in the past, and the
hope Of the future. \.
