FERRIS WHEEL SOLD.
Tho Famous Chicago Fair Attraction
Brings Only 81 500 At Auction.

CHICAGO, June 2.-The Ferris wheel
had rather an ignominious fate in Judge
Chytraus's court to-day when nobody
could be found who was willing to pay
more than 81, 800 for it-eng mes and build
ngs, boilers and all. Attorney H. NJ.
Segman, who represents firm of junk
dealers, bid 81 800 for the wheel and as the
only other offer was $500, it was accepted.
The Ferris wheel cost 1882 900 and was
one of the wonders OF the Worlds Fair
There are 100000 in bonds outstanding
against it and an Indebtedness approximat-
ing 500 900, which the 1900 bid to-day
will help to lquidate. The wheel is now
standing in Ferris Wheel Park on the North
Side

ers OF China to the st. Louis EXPOSE
ton, Prince Pao LuD, Taotai Wong kai
and Francis A. Carl, have met in Pek-
ing for their first conference. The two
first named have had audiences with
the Empress Dowager and secured a
liberal appropriation of 100000 taels
equivalent to about $4OO,OOOJ for the
Chinese exhibit.
Plans for the Chinese exhibit are not
matured, but It is proposed to have an
deliberately furnished and decorated
Chinese building or buildings. The
Dowager, as "A token Of appreciation of
the protection afforded by the Ameri-
can commanders, unknown to their col.
leagues, of the vast money and art
treasures of the forbidden city, has
promised loan exhibit of some OF the
rare porcelains. bronzes and pictures

noiseurs. Recently she gave MIR. Con-
ger two paintings from her brush for
the collection of the Iowa Historical

luctant to place her work in competi-

Germany" says the writer, must
pass laws making emigration anywhere

Let us permit as much self-govern-

most favored nation tariff treatment
and organize colonial army, wherein
every man can serve his time without

witness on the other side of the At

colonial empire. which, perhaps, will
become the most lasting colony old
