ST. LOUIS FAIR POSTPONED.
Officially Announced that II Will Not Be
Opened Until 1902.

St. Louis, May 1.-The following
statement was given ont this evening
by President DAVID r. Francis, of
the Louisiana Purchase Exposition
Company:
"The sundry bill, which passed
the House several weeks ago, and is
now before the Senate, contains an
appropriation of $l,O48,OOO to pro
vide for a Government exhibit, a
special Indian exhibit and the addi
tional cost of the Government build
ing at the Louisiana Purchase Ex-
position. 1t was deemed advisable
to have the date of the fair definitely
fixed in that bill, in the event any
change from 1903 should
be decided upon. For many months
past the fair virtually ha been post
poned for one year. A decided maj
ority of the directors prefer l9O4
and have for six months or more.
The repeated request of both dom~s
tic and foreign exhibitors for post
ponement, advices from foreign Gov,
| ernments that they had not sufficient
| time in which to make preparation
for representative exhibit in 1903,
and the fact that the general public
have for months past considered
postponement foregone conclusion,
were some of the reasons that moved
the executive committee to authorize
me to inform the national commits
sion that any action of Congress
| changing the time of the Exposition
I from 1903 to 1904 would be accept
able"

AMOS J. CUMMINGS Is DEAD.
Was Democratic Congressman from Ne"
York-Oncr Noted Newspsprr Cores
pundeur.

Baltimore, May, 2.-Congressman
Amos J. Cummings of New York,
died at 1915 o'clock tonight at
Christ's Church Home in this city.
The cause Of death was pneumonia,
incident to an operation.
The congressman's wife aud
cousin, Charles H. Cummings, were
at his bedside when death came.
Congressman Cummings came to
Baltimore on April II to undergo
treatment for kidney trouble. -Four
days later an operation was per
formed by DR.. Hugh H. Young and
Mr.. Cummings seemed to hH on Il
fair way to recovery. A week later,
however, pleurisy developed and OH
April 25th it was announced that
Mr.. Cummings was suffering from
pneumonia in one lung Last Tues
day it was announced that the NAL
adv had extended to both lungs,
since which time Mr. Cummings has
been lowering between life and
death.

have you any mail for our COM
pany?" Everybody in hearing ex-
ploded with laughter. Spence's re-
ply was: "Cally Boyd, this is no
time for such foolishness." The
effect of this good humored rail-
lery was not lost amid these dan
gers, and when in few minutes
afterwards the regiment made its
charge it carried those coveted en-
trenchments.
When the end came, he was the
same cheerful spirit as of yore: be
bowed to the inevitable and began
building his fortunes anew. His
conduct in private life was just as
! illustrative of true manhood as it
| was as a soldier. No man who was
not true soldier can conceive the
heart agony of the southern SOL
diers at their defeat. Too manly to
make public display of their NOR
tifcation that the autonomy of
their statehood had been destroyed,
their wounds bled internally. Hav-
ing been taught from their infancy
to love their state, this dire failure
was almost beyond endurance.
The policy of the reigning powers
in the north soon developed a bru-
tai malignity towards our state
which can never be forgiven. Our
soldiers had surrendered at Apo
mattox and at Greensboro and, on
receiving paroles, were in honor as
well as in duty bound to raise no
hands of violence or opposition to
the United States government.
And the world is challenged to pro-
duce another instance of such an
adherence to duty amid defeat as
is furnished by the soldiers of the
south. They sought no swamps;
they immured themselves in no
caves, nor did they flee to the
mountains to continue the strug-
gle. They saw the path of honor
and duty and they steadily walked
in that path until, by peaceful
means, they wrought out their
political and social salvation.
Calhoun F. Boyd was always at
the post of duty. His life was a
beautiful tribute to the manhood
of his state. fit is desired to learn
from what sources he drew his love
Of liberty and religion, it will be
found by tracing his origin on his
fathers side. He was the grandson
of soldier in the War of the Revo-
luton waged by the colonies in
America against the mother coun-
try for seven years. Besides, that
grandfather was a Covenanter.
Heredity and environment do a
most important work in the forma-
ton of character. At any rate, our
comrade was patriot and Chris
tian; but it is deemed unwise to re-
fer to Lis private life since the war,
as we'll as his Christian life, for
tributes-beautiful tributes-have
been paid by others to these sides

the main feature of the evening. The

broke out in the house occupied by
Mr.. L. d. Ballie, and owing to the in
ability of the fire company to get a
stream of water on it on account of
the hose being frozen, the house with
it's contents, with the exception of tt e
piano, were destroyed. The house
next door, occupied by Mr.. W. A. Bar :
nett, was destroyed, but the furniture
was saved. At one time it was thought
that the next house, which was occu
pied by Mr.. J. W. Silling, would be
burned. but heroic work on the part
of the firemen saved it. Mr.. Sllling s
furniture was removed to one OF the
adjoining houses. All three houses
