TO POSTPONE FAIR
Louisiana Purchase Exposition Won't
Be Held Until 1904.

Washington. Jan. H.-Ex-Governpr
Francis tonight. IN response to request
from the associated press. made the fol-
lowing statement regarding reports that
the Louisiana Purchase exposition would
be postponed from 1913 10 1891:
I was much surprised to learn that
statement had been printed to the effect
that I had virtually admitted that the
fair would be postponed from 1893 to 1894.
have never advocated nor contemppla-
ted such action. On behalf Of the local
company 7 desire TO say that it can be
ready for the exposition in 1893. and viii
be ready. When some newspaper men
asked me today If the fair would be
postponed and I made a negative reply.
was asked if We could not prepare
better fair for 1894 than for 1915. can
not say why this statement should be
construed as an admission that the Loui-
sisna exposition. would be postponed
from the date fixed by congress and an
nounced by the president in his proclama-
ton inviting foreign countries 10 partici-
pate. Some Of the European governments
have sent replies declining. and one Oh
ject OF my visit TO Washington is 10 ask
the state department and the administra-
ton TO bring additional pressure upon
such governments to reconsider their con-
clusion.
IF. however, they refuse 10 DO so. it
would mea nthat St Louis would not
have exhibits from those countries as
our commissioners would make appeals
to manufacturers ard other exhibitors
therein. One or more OF the foreign coun-
tries have given as reasons for their dec
larations that they have not time in
which to prepare. Whether the govern
ments so declining would participate IN
the event OF a postponement. has not
been ascertained.
If" continued Governor Francis, ,"the
state department Of the administration
or congress shouIa desire postponed their
fair il order to giTe foreign governments
longer time in wil.e.- 70 prepare, I have
no doubt the local corporation would
readily accede to such wishes"
DO you expect that such contingency
will arise?' the governor was asked.
mo. DO not expect. but firmly believe
that everything viii be in readiness and
the fair will open on time.

Fight Against Hepburn.

c. r. West. prominent Iowa Demo-
crat, in the lobby of the Ebbitt last even
ing. said the Democrats of the Eighth
Congressional district of Iowa would
make a desperate effort to defeat Repre-
sentative Hepburn this fall.
There is just one man we think can
defeat Mr.. Hepburn remarked Mr..
West. 'and he Is State Senator Claude
y. Porter, of Centerville. Senator Porter
is very popular not only with his own
party. but also with the governors wing
of the Republican party. Mr.. Hepburn
fought Cummings for the govcrnorship.
and the governors friends are naturally
sore at Hepburn.
IF the Democrats can induce Senator
Porter to make the race for Congress
against Hepburn 1t will mean many Re-
publican votes for Porter. with a very
strong chance for his election. The tariff
question has placed the Iowa Republi-
cans in pickle, and. in my judgment,
It will split the solid Republican
delegation in the House. and the Demo
Gratis on the tariff issue will make a gain

Longevity and
Personal Habits.

Those who live to an extreme old
age are probably the result of long
series of selected lives, further forti-
fed byexemplary personal habits, like
the Jews, who, for 1000 years, have
| been compelled to live in crowded
quarters of cities, with minimum
| of air and light, until natures Sc
lective processes, together with their
rigid adherence TO the admirable
sanitary code OF Moses, have pro-
duced a stock that can endure al
most anything, with little apparen,
injury. says the Century"
The Ghetto in Rome was the
healthiest quarter of the city, and at
the present day the Jewish quarter
of New York, the most crowded. and,
until recently. the dirtlest, part of
the town, has the lowest death rate.
Persons with such constitutions,
being. in a large measure, proof
against morbific influences, are gen.
orally injured only by their own ex-
cesses, and 1t will be found, as
rule. that centenarians have been
persons OF this class. who have sell
dom been i'll in their lives. who have
had the contagious diseases of child
hood lightly. If at all; who have al
ways been temperate in all things.
light eaters and drinkers, slow to
wrath. able to control their passions
and emotions. and usually leading a
placid, uneventful life.
Such conditions can be brought
about by sanitary laws only as a re-
suit of long continued teaching and
pressure extending over many gem
erations. and may not be perceptible
in the race for a hundred years TO
come. Our first parents were driven
from the Garden of Eden for fear
they would become immortal, and
their descendants have lost so much
ground that only one out of millions
is able to reach the physiological
limit of life. which certainly should
be 100 years. and possibly 12O.

Grape Myrtle.
By SAMUEL MINTURN PECK.

In the land where was born
Grows a flower that love;
And today,
II is blowing in the morn,
With Southland skies above
Blue and gay.
In Norland land afar
l am haunted by its spell.
Flower of love.
Like fair and distant star,
Like the murmur of she'll
Or dove.
'Tis garden quaint and old,
Where the rose and jasmine white
Interlace-
There it's plumes of pink unfold.
And its sweetness charms the night
Full OF grace.
The mock bird, builds his nest
In the fragrant gloom below.
Meath its CLEANS;
And he sings his mate to rest
can hear the music flow
In my dreams.
o those myrtle boughs OF pink
Swaying in the Southern calm.
Weary brains
Need of Lethe ne'er to drink,
For before their beauty's balm
Sorrow wanes.

Hobson and the Barber.

When Captain Hobson was at the
Chautauqua assembly he entered q
barber shop where he was not
known. He got into a chair and the
barber commenced to discourse.
"Of course it was a nervy thing
to do, and Hobson did it well
enough, but that little trick at San

told me he had come over here to
get shaved" persisted the man. Then
a great light broke into the mind
of the barber. His knees felt wab-
bly,. and he looked a trifle pale, but
screwing up his courage he grasped
the hair of the man in the chair
and turning his head looked into
his perfectly demure countenance.
Are you Hobson?" he asked.
Yes" came the reply in that
deep, full voice that belongs to the
hero of the Merrimac. I'm Hob

To make home sweet. bring heaven near,
To win 4 smile and wipe a tear,
And do her duty day by day.

Around her childish hearts are twined.
AS round some revered saint enshrined.

Are led to ideals true and sweet,
And find all purity and good
In her divinest motherhood.
She keeps her faith unshadoweI still
God rules the world in good anl ill:
Men in her creed are brave and true,
And women pure as pearls of dew.
and life for her is high and grand,
By work and glad endeavor spanned.

All for the sunshine of her face;
Her very smile a blessing throws.
