President Roosevelt directed that
General Wood be ordered to publish

MILLION DOLLARS IN GOLD BARS
VIII Form Part of the Colorado Min.
eral Exhibit at the Worlds Fair.

WORLDS FAIR GROUNDS, st. Louis,
June 24-One million dollars worth
of gold bars, just as they come from
the smelter, will form the apex Of the
beautiful pyramid of Colorado mineral
products which is to form the central
figure of the exhibit from that state
in the Mines and Metallurgy building
at the Worlds Fair ia 1904.
There will be more actual value In
this exhibit, says Capt. George w.
Thatcher, Commissioner IN chief OF
the Worlds Fair from Colorado, than
there was ever put into an exhibit at
any Exposition. This pyramid, the
plans for which have already been
drawn, will be built to show every
product of the state including gold,
silver coal, iron, clay, etc. 1t will
take some money to protect that mil
lion dollars in gold. 1t will have to
be guarded by strong, well armed
body of men, both day and night. 1t
is our purpose to have a large burglar
proof safe TO keep the gold bars 10 at
night, and trusty men will keep up
their vigil over them all the time.
The cost Of this exhibit will be enor-
nous. The interest on ST., 900, 900 for
six months at per cent will alone
amount to $l2, 500 which is almost as
much as the state of Massachusetts,
proposes to appropriate for her Worlds
Fair exhibit as a whole. Six special
guards to attend watch over the ex.
hibit at So each per day will cost for
the six months 81, 1876.

YOUNG NAN FOUND DEAD.

His Own Hand.

The little hamlet Of CASTLE, Greene

other members OF the household had
arisen from their slumbers young
Watson arose, dressed himself, took
a % calibre flobert rifle, and with the
family dog started for the woods, sup
posedly with the intention to hunt
squirrels. At the home it Was not
thought unusual for the young man
to stay out the entire day SO they did
not interest themselves in his absence
until about six in the evening. He
had not returned by that time and his
people at home became alarmed and
started on hunt for him and about
his father came across his body at the
edge of woods about 300 yards from
his home.
He was lying on his back with his
right arm and rifle lying across his
breast, and bullet hole through his
head, the ball having entered near
his right eye and penetrating the
brain, lodging somewhere at the back
of the skull. The body was cold and
rigid and probably had lain where it
was found since 7 in the morning,
when it is said some neighbors heard
two shots in the direction OF the
woods where the body was found.

OF Roosevelt not the Reciprocity OF
Blaine.
WASHINGTON, June Ex-senator
Elkins went TO West Virginia today
and before his departure he authorized
the following statement:
"fhere is no precedent for increas-
ing and lowering duties by legislation
only on a few articles. The tariff
schedules are always framed as a
whole and left to stand till another
session of congress. Reciprocity has
always been effected through treaties.
There are now II or IA reciprocity
treaties pending in the senate. Why
should Cuba be made an exception to
this rule?
1.-THE tariff should never for any
reason be changed by legislation ex
cept as a whole. The reciprocity
asked with Cuba now is not the reci-
proclty advocated by Blaine, Harrison
and Mckinley. These great states
men would never have advocated re-
ducing the tariff on few articles to
the injury of any American industry.
