DECLINES
REELECTION.

Senator Dietrich, of Nebraska, will
not be a candidate for reelection tIhe
formal announcement last night OF his
withdrawal from the Senatorial race
is believed to insure the election to
the Senate of Representative Elmer
Jacob Burllett, of the First Nebraska
District.
In a letter announcing that he will
not bea candidate to succeed him.
S self. Senator Dietrich congratulates
3 the Republicans Of Southern Nebras-
ka on having two such worthy candi-
dates for the Senate as Mr.. Burkett
and William E. Andrews Auditor fer
the Treasury Department, who was
formerly a member of the Nebraska
delegation in Congress.
Split by the Platte.
Nebraska is split in two political di-,
visions by the Platte River. The
country north Of the river is always
spoken Of as the North Platte, and the
country South. the South Platte
Each division is conceded a Senator
and Senator Dietrich represents the
South Platte. Both Mr.. Andrews and
Mr.. Burkett are from that section,
and consequently have none OF the po-
litica1 traditions of the State to over
/, come in their candidacy
NO man ever came into political
prominence in Nebraska as rapidly as
Senator Dietrich. He had not hg-
ured in politics until 1890, when he
was nominated for Governor, and car
RED the State into the Republican
ranks after it had been submerged in
Poprlism for years. In the first few
month of his term as governor, the
Nebraska legislature had its famous
deadlock.
Two United States Senators We're to
be named D. E. Thompson, the pres
ent United States minister to Brazil
and e. Rosewater, the editor of the
"Omaha Bee" were the two most
prominent candidates. George w:
Meilllejohn, who was then Assistant
Secretary of War; R., B. Schneider,
member of the Republican National
Committee from Nebraska; Lorenzo
Grouse, former Governor of Nebraska,
and many other weli-known Repub-
Hcans were also in the race.
Compromise Candidate.
Governor Dietrich received a few
stray mplimentary votes from time
3 to time, but was not considered Sen
atorial possibility. Finally the Ieg1s-
Iature tired of the deadlock. Mr.
Rosewater3 and Mr. Thompson with
drew from the race and Senator Diet
rich was chosen as the compromise
candidate.
Entering upon his duties as cover
nor after years of Populistic rule in
Nebraska, Senator Dietrich had to ap-
point SO many new officers that he in
CURED the, ill-wilI of scores of prom
inent Republican officeseekers. SEN
atorial honors brought him more en-
emies, for he had to name postmaS-
tiers in two Populist districts in his
section of the State, and dlsappolnt-
ed Office seekers inspired the sensa-
ton charges against him which were
exploded by the Senate committee re-
port, made public few days ago.

The landscape of the Worlds Fair
is feature of diversified beauty. 1t
embraces hill and valley, plateau and
lowland. In the Cascade region alone
more than 100000 brilliantly colored
towering and foliage plants are used
in the creation of the Rainbow Gar
dens. More than 30,000,000 plants are
used in beautifying other sections of
the grounds. All of the main avenues
are delightfully."- shaded with rows OF
silver naples. and in several sections
there are great groups of forest
trees that ever afford a delightful
shade.
The largest engine in the world is
an exhibit in the Palace of Machinery.
This monster with a power equal to
that of 5000 horses, occupies a space
in the center of the great structure
and towers So feet in the air. 1t is
as large as an ordinary three-story
hodse. Altogether the engines devel.
op a power of $4,000 horses. At the

They are quite a different race from

is in the front rank of nations at the
great Worlds Fair. The site selected
by Japan for her group OF buildings
is one of the choicest allotted to for

Japanese have made the most OF their
advantages. On high hill overlook

More than thousand native Filipi
nos are living in the 40-acre Philip
pine tract at the Worlds Fair. Their
homes have been reproduced in ST.
Louis and they are counterparts of
those left behind in the Pacific archi-
pelago. The Filipino colony en-
braces representatives from many
tribes, and Americans and Europeans
will be interested in seeing the sub
jects that Uncle Sam acquired with
the Philippine islands, and in learn
ing of their lives and habits.
Besides the native villages, the
Philippine commission. which has ex-
pended nearly 81 100000 on the exhi-
bit, has erected replicas of many of
the most famous buildings on the is
lands. Several bits of old Spanish
architecture are sure to delight all
visitors.

Never was the United States gov
errment so deeply interested in an ex-
position as it is in this 1904 Worlds
Fair. Already the governments In
vestment has reached the $11 100000
mark, and this does not include the
Philippine expenditures, which were
paid out of the insular treasury. The
result is the greatest exhibit ever
made by Uncle Sam.
One of the interesting government
exhibits is the great map of the
United States, worked out in growing
crops, each state being represented
by crops chiefly grown in that state.
This map covers six acres of ground.
One who has not seen the map may
have an idea of its immense size
when he is told that Illinois on this
crop map is rs feet long. The bound
ary lines between the states are
gravel walks and the Worlds Fair
visitors stroll at will through the
states, and receive simultaneously a
lesson in geography and agriculture.
The largest timepiece in the world
is at the Worlds Fair, and may be
seen on a slope on the north side of
Agriculture Hill. The dial of this
great clock is 112 feet in diameter
The frame work is steel, of course,
but it is so covered with flowers that
it appears to have been built entirely
of flowers, and for that reason it is
popularly known as the floral clock -

She was a dear little girl, and had
spent most Of her life in country
rectory. 1t was not surprising, there
fore, that her knowledge of things
maritime and warlike was not ex-
tensive.
The young gunnery officer Of H. M.
S. = had been showing her round
the battleship. 1t was the very first
warship of any kind she had ever
visited, and her mind was full of the
wonderful sights presented.
Being an industrious and thor
ough young man, the gunnery lieu
tenant had explained very fully the
mechanism and the use of the tor
pedo in warfare.
She examined the long, deadly, CT
gar-shaped engine of war critically
and fearfully.
Then she tapped it with the point
of her parasol and let her glove run
over its FURNISHED side, and finally
paralyzed the gunnery officer with
the question:
