position as 1t Is In this 1904 Worlds
Fair. Already the governments IN
vestmeRt has reached the 81, 000, 900
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
airy lines between the states are
gravel walks and the Worlds Fair

states, and receive simultaneously a
lesson In geography and agriculture.
The largest tlmepiece in the world
Is at the Worlds Fair, and may be
seen on 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,

Young Lawyer Sharp Enough to Make

A prominent judge and young
lawyer were taking holiday jaunt
together, and having very jolly time
Of 1t. One day the younger man said
to his companion:
Judge, wish you would tell me
what it is to which you attribute your
very unusual success in the law"
well, I don't mind doing SO; but
1t must be on one condition, and that
is, that you agree to pay the rest Of
my travelling expenses on this trip"
To an ambitious young fellow Of
considerable inherited fortune that
was not too much to do, and 80 he
agreed.
1T is simply this" said the Judge;
II always make 1t rule to deny
everything and insist upon proof"
His friend acknowledged the re-
mark with a simple thank YOU" and
nothing further was said about the
matter
The Judge did not limit himself in
his wines and other expenses, and
was running up pretty bill. When
their stay at that hotel was ended,
and they went to the desk for their
accounts, the Judge received his, and
passed it to the younger man with
a twinkle in his eye.
"Why, what does this mean?" he
asked.

Could he have been listening to

rate, the interloper met with no bet

a ball In the city, and they had be-
