On last Tuesday morning the word was passed from one to an- other that Uncle Mack was gone, referring to c. F. McDonough, the blind tiger who recently re- ceived a pardon. In his hurried departure he forgot to settle
 little bill with the Echo which was contracted sometime since. but then as he is classed with the individual to whom an account was presented a few days since, and who promptly replied, if we got it we would have to take it out of his hide," we guess we will lose it, for we have examined the quotations on skunk and dog hides and find they are not worth the skinning, and for the present we will let them go, and it al- most makes our heart bleed to think that when such worthless fellows shuff1e off this mortal coil that no flowers will bloom above their grave, for there will

FAIR JAPAN"

For the past few days number of enthusiastic boomers of the Worlds Fair in St. Louis have been in this section chanting the glories of the pike, as the mid- way there is termed. It is a strange fact, however, that there is not one among them but who admits that from a standpoint of educational value and artistic beauty there is not a spot along the Pike which can compare with Flair Japan, the little garden spot which the we'll known Jap- anese firm of Kushibiki & Arai has constructed in the very heart of the turmoil and glare of this amusement addenda to the expo sition.
 The exterior of Fair Japan, ; with it's imposing entrance, pro- bably is the most ornate and picturesque place within the en- tire grounds. One enters Flair Japan" through the columns and beneath the towering roof of a replica of the famous Nikko gate way. Once inside one can almost imagine himself in far away Japan. The atmosphere, the architectural scheme and the landscape gardening are typical in every detail of the country of which Sir Edwin Arnold has written so graphically.
 There are booths in which one may purchase almost anything from a penny whistle to a $500 kimono, tea houses in which beauties selected from the most popular resorts of Yokohama an other great cities of Japan serve tea to he thirsty multitude. A Japanese theatre, the only one of its kind ever erected in Amerca, in which fifty-four real (Geisha girls sing their native songs and reproduce the dances of their far away home, a tea garden and a hundred other attractions which to be appreciated must be seen.
 From the reports which have reached this city it might be well for those residents contemplat- ing a visit to this ffty-million dollar show to paste within their hats the brief memoranda, Flair Japan on the Pike

Messrs. George R. Mclean and Chas. s. Stifft are among those most actively interested in the raising of the bonus, and report very satisfactory progress.
 A surveying party in charge of G. w. Dalgarn arrived yes terday from the south, having finished the locating survey be- tween here and Sheridan, the first forty miles of the road. They went out to run another line of three or four miles near Ironton, in order to make a choice of the most desirable route.
