The Greatest Worlds Fair the world has ever seen will be held at St. Louis in 1904. To keep in touch with the work of prepara- ton for this great Worlds Fair and to get all the news of all the Earth, every reading person should at once subscribe for the great newspaper of St. Louis, the GLOBE DEMOCRAT. It stands pre- eminent and alone among American newspapers, and ac- knowledges no equal or rival. It's circulation extends to every state and territory of the Union, to Canada and Mexico, and to every part of the World where there are readers of the English language. It ought to be in your home dur ing the coming year. See ad- vertisement elsewhere in this issue.

A special train load of construction supplies went down to the front Wednes- day.
 Wash Tanning has been employed by the town council as special street commissioner to superintend the mac- adamizing of South Springfield street. and Ninth street to the depot, and the work was commenced in earnest last Tuesday. MT. Tanning expects to cover distance of 500 feet this week. The dump from the Drought mining shaft is being utilized and MT. Tanning estimates Shat it will furnish more than 1000 loads of small rock, or nearly enough to complete the work from the Star Hotel to the depot. Citizens are readily donating work and it now ap- pears that MT. Tanning will be able to do about 5000 worth of work on these two streets without a single cent of cost to the town for labor or material, except his own pay. Indications are that the work will now move right along until this absolutely necessary improvement is made, Our citizens ought not wait to be solicited to donate a few days work, but should at once signify their readiness to take hold and give this enterprise a lift. MT. Fan ming is keeping an account of all labor and material donated and will furnish THE TRIBUNE list for publication shortly.
