New York. March io.-The World
says editorially:
St Louis wears the flush of a great
and deserved triumph. She has won

tion of $1,000. .00o-the only one made

tced home fund of SO 900. goo. aud her
Worlds fair planned for 1893 is now
an assured success.
The fight for an appropriation ut
Washington was a hard one. In a less
important and impressive cause il
might easily have been unavaiIing.
When congress finally decided the
matter il was purely on the bass of
national utility. The peruasion coming
from the arguments of straightfor-
ward citizens committee, with no re-
sort to the methods of lobby. Ex-
Gov. Francis, Mr.. Corwin Spencer and
Mr. Seth W. Cobb were the reprcsen-
tatiye members Of that committee at
the capital, and results fitly crown
their labors-
st Louis Is now done with Wash
ington. The rest of the exposition
work she must do and will do within
herself. She has busy two years
ahead. with every reason to expect
her greater triumph at the end of
that period The nominal object ot
the fair-to celebrate the centennial
Of the Louisiana Purchase-gives the
enterprise a broad national siynifi-
caEee. The magnitude of the show
will interest the wrole world"

After Stonewall Jaeksou's death at
Chancellorsville, n story became current
in the Confederate army which the sol
diers loved to repeat over their eirosac
fires: That on account of his extreme
piety, when their famous chieftain fell.
q detachment left the heavenly gates tn
visit the battlefield and escort the
hero's soul into paradise. The celestial
squadron searched the close-s.rewn
fields. but without effect He whom
they sought could not be found. and
they retired mournfully TO report their
want of success But 10! on their re-
turn they found the spirit of the i'm
mortal warrior already there. Stone
wall Jackson had made flank march
and got TO heaven before them"
