]. F. Knapp. special commissioner of
the South Carolina Interstate and West
Indian Exposition. is in the City for the
purpose of securing the transference OF
the educa tional exhibit from Buffalo at
the close of the Pan-American Exposi-
tion TO Charleston. An attempt will also
be made through the Chamber of Com
merce to secure the late exhibit at the
Paris Exposition now on its way back
to Hawaii. Mr.. Knapp has further in
terviewed the Chamber with regard to
the possibility of securing an agricul-
tural exhibit. A formal request will be
sent in and a special meeting called to
take up the matter.
Mr.. Knapp has seen Mr.. Atkinson, who
is favorable to the sending on of the ed
ucational exhibit and will today meet
endeavor to persuade them to add a suffi-
cient amount to the appropriation for the
expense of packing and unpacking the
Buffalo exhibit the Exposition being
tation to Charleston.
Space win be provided and the exhibit
set up to the best advantage, free of
charge. There will, of course, be a ne
cessity for the continuance of the SER
vices of Miss Dawson or some other
available person as explanatory exhibit

The Exposition at Charleston opens on
December 1st continuing until the 1st of
June, 1902 The buildings and grounds
are to be ready by October 1st. Four of
the most important buildings, the Cotton
Palace, the Palace of Agriculture, Com
merce and Administration buildings are
already rooted, while promises of State
buildings are coming in rapidly.
Mr.. Knapp's territory embraces the
States and Territories west of the Mis-
sissippi and out of fourteen requests for
exhibits but two States have shown any
hesitancy In promising to participate
sums having been already voted in sew
eral Instances for that purpose.

conducting series OF evangelistic
meetings. He is now the guest OF Rev.
Mr.. Kincaid, and will deliver sermon
at the Central Union Church on Sun
day morning at II o'clock, in place OF
Rev. Mr., Kincaid's regular sermon.
The evangelist's fame as an orator,
and his success in the evangelistic field
is widespread, and it is probable that
his meetings will give new impetus
to the religious and moral reform
movement that is now being conducted
by local enthusiasts.

School Superintendent Atkinson says
that there viii be no difficulty about
the language question with the Porto
Rican pupils and that if the teachers
have managed to get on speaking
terms with Hawaiian, Japanese and
Chinese speaking juveniles there ought
not to be any trouble about the Span
ish speaking little ones.

cincts Policemen who become too officious
in taking up misdemeanants Of a certain
class are reprimanded and fined According
to the disclosures of the various reform
agents who have been seeking a way out
of the morass of official corruption, there
is practically no honesty whatever in the
police handling of the criminal and vicious
classes. If arrests are made, 1t is because
the blood money has been refused. The
fragrant presence of notorious violators of
the laws testifes to the rottenness of the
system of public guardianship.

lice force thus indicted by the actual facts,
It Is reasonable to describe New York as
IN serious danger of thug domination,
though the statement that frontier lawless-
ness threatening life Is now in daily evil
dence in the metropolis is undoubtedly an
eXaggeration. On the other hand the par
allel between it under such conditions and
the mining town is unfair to the latter in
some respects. The old-time mining town
had at least the excuse of lack of organi-
zation. New York suffers today from too
much organization and too little public
spirit. If there were a more general reali-
zation Of the danger in continued Tam
