Every time a misbap occurs to a
Russian warship in the far east, some
thing new is sent out in regard to the
movement of the Baltic fleet. The
date of its departure has been fixed a
number of times but the feet still re-
mains at anchor sereneIy in the Baltic
sea. Another feature of the war news
for the past several days has been the
immineuce of a decisive battle, which
has been expected daily. The fact is
that newspaper correspondents have
to depend largely upon guess work
for the alleged news they send out.
as they do not see m to have been
taken into the confidence of either
the Russians orJapanese who are con-
Quoting tie naval and military move
ments of the war.

Recently a Representative from
Iowa called upon the President to in
duce him to promote one Col. Din
widdie, a native of that state, from
being a Colonel in the Signal Corps
to the grade of Brigadier General.
The President listened to the argu-
ment with an unusual sense of amuse-
ment. 1t wasn't even limited that
Dinwiddie had never smelt powder,
or been under arms, or done anything
else emitting him to a promotion.
"Iowa has never had Brigadier Gen
eral, >" was the plea, land she wants
one awfully bad" The President re-
piled that promotions in the army dc
not go by states.

will cause q loss of 81, 600, 600. Potato
blight in New York has caused loss

A Jersey City church provides free

KEEPING PACE WITH DEMANDS.
This VIII BE Truly a Greater State
Fair-It Begins on October 25th-
Ample Arrangements.

The State Agricultural and Mechani-
cal Society purchased one hundred
acres of level land in the southern
part Of Columbia last spring on which
to hold Its annual South Carolina State
Fairs. This change was made neGes-
cary because the old grounds were too
small to accommodate the large num-
ber OF exhibitors and visitors who an
nually attended the great fairs, and
the buildings were no longer suitable
for the purposes for which they were
built. On the new grounds there Is
room for everything and for every
body, and they are more conveniently
situated to the transportation lines
than the old grounds were. The dis
tance is less than a half mile from the
new union depot, and the grounds are
reached by several fine roads and by
the street car lines, and no trouble will
be experienced in hCndling the large
crowds that are sure to visit Columbia.
Visitors will find everything brand new
this year. The buildings are all modern
in construction, large, airy, and COM
Portable, all one story, with numerous
exits and wide aisles. One building is
devoted entirely to the handiwork of
women, and is set apart from the other
buildings so that the fair sex may en-
joy themselves without interruption.
Another building is devoted to the agri-
cultural exhibits and implements, and
another to the commercial exhibits.
Then, the poultry building oc ;upies a
very prominent locallOn ana Is very
large and roomy. e. The live stock Yarns
are so arranged chat all visitors can
safely and conveniently pass through
all OF them and see all the stock at any
time, and the management specially
requests that visitors avail themselves
of this opportunity.
The regulation mile race track is To-
Gated in the southern part OF the
grounds, and is a beauty. The races
may be viewed from the Fair grounds
IL it be preferred to do so, but large,
comfortable grand stand is located at
the finish of the home stretch, where
the races can be viewed to much better
advantage and with more comfort. The
quarter stretch is not separated from
the grand stand, as was the case on
the old track, but all are combined
under one inclosure, thus increasing
the social part OF the meet.
The Midway or Pike is located near
the main entrances, and will be filled
with all the modern shows and attrac-
tions, with wares from very part Of
the world, and with people from every
part of the world. The athletic
grounds are located just opposite the
Midway, on the other side of the
entrance. Here will be played two
excellent games OF football during
Fair week.
The ra lroads have offered very
cheap rates on account OF the first
Greater state Fair, and they will run
most convenient schedules from all
sections OF the State. In view of all
the attractions that have been ar
that the large crowd of last year will
he doubled this fall, and that this
great gathering will be more easily ac-
commOdItcd than in any former year.
Every one ought to attend the only
big fair and social event in the stats.
