DESTINY OF A BUILDING.

Exposition visitors often wonder
what becomes of the fine Exposition
building. That their days of useful
ness are not always ended with the
Exposition is shown by the fact that
Victoria House" the British govern
ment building at the Worlds Column
bian Exposition, Chicago, 1898, is still
in existence. 1t is in Kansas City, in
a knocked down" condition, wrapped
in cotton batting and burlap and the
Manufactures club of that thriving
Western Missouri city is negotiating
for its purchase to serve as a club
house. The structure is 70Xl2O feet
and two and one-half stories high. II
is a magnificent structure of brick and
stone, all finished in hand-carved Eng
fish oak, and is all in its original fine
condition. When this building is erect
ed in Kansas City that city will have
two of the Columbian Exposition build
ings within her limits, the other being
the beautiful Wisconsin State Build
ing, which is the home of the Kansas
City Elks Lodge and Club. and is said
TO be the finest Elk's club house in the
country.

Kalauokalani's faction attempted to

explained that this was a forward mea-

more power and enable then to meet

voters of his way of thinking. Hal

Markham stated that he did not under

OF Importance, iCt Edgar was unaware
that his mother had any acquaintance
with the sweet faced woman who had
lived over the way" He wrote his
discovery across the face of the note,
requesting permission to call upon one
who had been his mothers friend with
| out his knowledge and sent it to Es-
| Their. In return he received the de-
sired permission, but so coldly and
formally stated that he determined not
to accept it. 4 few days later Esther
received brief note from him that he
was suddenly called away and would
not be able to avail himself of her
kind permission. The writer had sail
ed for Europe.
When Edgar returned, he had made
resolve to find out the secret of his
mothers acquaintance with Esther
Barnes. He hunted through her pa
pers till he came upon note from
Esther to his mother, which read 40
follows:
Your note of thanks is received. You
must not consider yourself under obliga-
ton to me. 1t is l who am obliged to
you.
Edgar's curiosity now drove him to
ignore the unsatisfactory wording OF
Esther's invitation, and in half an
hour he entered the grounds he had
kept aloof from for SO many years.
Esther responded to his card. entering
the room with slight limp and with so
uninviting a manner that Edgar was
repealed. Esther gave a very unsatis-
factory explanation of the secret of
her acquaintance with his mother On
the whole, the call was a failure. All
he had learned WAS that the secret
acquaintance was made accidentally
during his absence from home.
A few days later Edgar met his un-
Gle in the street. Thinking that time
had absolved him from his promise, he
poured forth his heartfelt thanks. His
uncle denied having furnished him
with a dollar. Astonished, Edgar rush.
ed home, resolved to discover the
source of the loan, and dived into q
trunk where he had seen some old
checkbooks of his mother. After an
hours search he found the entry Of a
deposit years before:
Check Of Esther Barnes, $4,000
This is not love story. At least the
love in it is not set forth. 1t is given
to show the misfortune which may Oc-
cur in consequence of self undervalua-
ton. How Esther Barnes loved Edgar
Wharton. though only seeing him; how
she learned Of his necessity from his
mother and furnished the amount I'm.
der promise of secrecy; how Mrs.
Wharton before her death begged for
permission to tell her son and was re-
fused, are matters which would come
In in love story. This being for
special purpose, 1t is necessary to say
that Edgar made another call on Es-
Their and without word sank down on
his knees beside the sofa where she
sat and buried his face in his hands.
But that did not restore ten or dozen
years of happiness that they might
have had. though it gave them happi-
ness from that moment.

That portion of the report Of the regis
ter of the United States treasury which
shows that the government is practically
out of debt to foreigners presents a sig
nihcant fact that is worthy Of more
than passing attention. Ir appears that
u Of a total of some S1s3, GOO, 600 of
government bonds, all but about $780,
600 are held in this country, so that the
government can be said TO have no for
eign debt. The bonds issued during the
Spanish war were all at home and
largely by small investors. Indeed, the
great majority of bonds are owned by
small American investors, for the funds
of the insurance and banking compa-
niles which hold bonds belonging to their
depositors and policy holders.
1T is easily within memory" remarks
the Philadelphia Ledger, when the coun-
try was in constant tremOr concerning
the effect of current events upon the
foreign bond holder. 1t was not unusual
to accuse the administration Of subserv-
fence TO Lombard street and those who
~counseled an enlightened financial and
economic policy were thought TO be in
huenced by British gold. The foreign
bondholder has ceased to be a facter
in governmental affairs and the only
anxiety we have now about gold is to
prevent its excessive accumulation in
the United States treasury" 1t should
be needless to point out that this re
suit has been produced, within the brief
period OF a few years, by our unpar
alleled prosperity. Five or six years
ago hundreds OF millions of our govern
ment bonds were held by foreigners and
during that period they have been stead
lily flowing back 10 this country as the
financial ability OF our people to take
them grew. 1t is very striking evidenc'
Of the rapid and substantially prog
