COST OF SEEING
THE WORLDS FAIR.
For tho Majority Of Visitors It Will Be
Loss Than Railroad Transportation {.
to St. Louis and Return Would
Cost In Any Other Year. !

From any point within 300 miles Of
st. Louis person may travel to the
Worlds Fair this year, view the Won
ders Of the Exposition for three days
and expend, less money than in any
other year he would pay for train fare
alone.
This may seem an astonishing state
ment, but it is a fact.
Railroad men have practically deter
mined that lone fare for the round
trip" will be the rate during the seven
important months Of 1904. Public an
nouncement of this only waits the pas
sage Of certain legislation concerning
"scalpers' tickets and formal indorse-
ment by the various passenger agents
associations.
With this fact In mind a. clear dem
onstration Of the statement in the open
ing paragraph can be made.
The fare from Chicago is $3.50, or
SIS the round trip. So under the new
schedule $3.50 will be put down as the
railroad fare from that city to st,
Louis and return. If you are econom-
ical, your per- diem expenses in the
Worlds Fair City need not exceed those
given In this table:

LONDON IN 100.
When Traitors Heads Adorned Lon-
don Bridge and Temple Bar,

When Traitors' Heads Adorned Lon.
don Bridge and Temple Bar.
London in 100 was comparatively
mall city Of about COO, 900 inhabitants,
the rough and i'll kept main roads to
which had been but slightly improved
Jince Tudor times. The ghastly specta-
Gle Of many of the trees on the South
wark road bending under their burden
of hanged men had indeed been slight
ly modified, but none the less the de-
composing heads of traitors" still
filed the atmosphere about London
bridge and Temple Bar with myriads
Of baneful microbes.
Our immediate forbears were evident
ly not overparticular about sights and
smells. They were accustomed to see
men sitting in the pillory pelted with
rotten eggs and possibly included among
their immediate circle not few who
had been deprived Of their noses and
ears for expressing too freely their
opinions, political and religious.
The drains were in an appalling con-
dition. The innumerable churchyards
were so full of collins that they often
projected through the turf. Bear and
bull batting, dog fights and boxing
matches were attended even by royalty
2 AZ late as 1920, and five years later all
/, the sdandies" in London were paying
high prices to stand in the carts round
Tyburn to behold twenty-five Of their
fellow creatures hanged for misdemean-
ors Which in our time would be pun
ished with few days Imprisonment

FEATURES OF EDUCATION.
Now tho Exhibit at St. Louis Will Bs
Distinctive From That at Any
Other Centennial.
By CLAUDE H. WETMORB.

Education finds more recognition In
he Louisiana Purchase Exposition than
In any previous centennial celebration.
It is the keynote Of the great enter
prise, permeating every display. More
over. the idea in its abstract has home
Of its own, in that for the first time in
history the appliances Of school life are
shown in building constructed ex-
clusively for this purpose.
At Chicago and at Paris this exhibit
was made a department Of something
else. At St. Louis it is seen alone,
housed in palace which many con-
slider the most perfect architecturally
Of any on the grounds.
Besides, in the classification Of ex-
hbits education leads all others, taking
rank over fine arts, manufacture and
all the industries.
In remarhng these facts visitors have

Perished In Pursuit OF Prey,

Among the curiosities Of the North
ampton (England museum there is
none more interesting than glass
case containing smoked cat. In her
lifetime puss was respected resi-
dent In q hotel in the town and GER
tainly paid for her keep by proficiency
IN mousing. One day, however, she
disappeared-was searched for, lament
ed, forgotten-till years after a work
man repairing a chimney in the hotel
threw a sudden light on the mystery of
her fate. She was discovered stand
Ing in an angle Of the brickwork Just
as she now appears in the glass case,
and clinched in each front paw was
q smoked, dried mouse. Flying for
their lives up the broad chimney, the
mouse had led the way not only to
death, but to unexpected Immortality.

slight effort upon the part of their
teachers in visiting the Government
building and examining the precious
documents to be shown there. Here
also the science Of civil government
may be taught to much better advan-
tage than from text books, for each de-
partment Of the National Government
will have Its separate exhibit, showing
the workings of the departments, its
methods and aims.
To afford the pupils general idea
Of the nations of the world it will be
necessary merely to make tour Of the
foreign government buildings, the teach
ers taking the pains to describe the
habits, industries and arts Of the re-
spective peoples represented.
Suggestions as to how to study the
Exposition to best advantage will be
prepared by competent persons and fur
nished to those In charge of school
children.

Valuable School Book.

The American Book Company has
just issued highly interesting little
volume by James Baldwin, entitled 1.-THE
discovery Of the Old Northwest" 1t is a
we'll told story of the way the French
explorers, Hennepin, Nicolet, La Sale,
Marquette and others whose names are
permanently engrafted on the history of
the nation, came to the northwest, and
amidst untold hardships, travelled among
lakes, and rivers, over plains and
mountains, in search of the gerat sea
that they believed would take them to
China. 1t is we'll told in easy language,
and is admirably adapted for school
work.

When Charles Dickens was boy at
Wellington House academy it was the
secret pride Of the students there that
they owned more white mice, red polls
and linnets than any other set of boys
within their ken. These were kept in
hat boxes, drawers and even in the
school desks. A small but very accom-
plished mouse which lived in the corner
of Latin dictionary in Dickens desk
and could draw Roman chariots, fire
paper muskets and scale pasteboard
ladders fell at last into an overfull ink
pot and lost both its white coat and its
life. Dickens nevertheless won a prize
for his Latin.

which are supplemented by displays
from technical institutions.
Both interesting and novel will be
the exhibits made by the Agricultural
department of the Federal government
In the Education building, for which
congress made special appropriation
Of 100000. These will be in the ma
ture of experiment stations such as
have been established at various places
throughout the country for the practi-
cal education of those who desire to
study the scientific questions Of agri-
culture and horticulture. Here will be
demonstrated the best system of fer
hlizing the soil, of sowing the seeds, of
caring for the crops, of harvesting
them, and then for handling the same
In barns and storehouses. Visitors to
the Exposition will be given the op-
portunity for instruction in the
diseases which infest the realm of
Flora and the medicines or surgery
that must be employed to combat the
dangerous inroads.
Located on the Grand basin and COM
manding a view Of the Cascades. the
Terrace Of States and the Hall Of Fes-
tivals. the Palace Of Education, itself
q portion Of the main picture, can be
reached by either the broad boulevards
or by transit over the crystal waters Of
the Lagoon. It's visitors may reach its
doors in roller chairs, on foot or In gon-
dola or electric launch.
In this building, as in the others, es-
pecial arrangements have been made
for the comfort of the sightseers. Null
dtudinous windows permit of free cur
rents of air constantly circulating, and
withdrawal rooms are at every hand
where one can sit down after becom-
Ing fatgued from too much exploration.

before, and they are loud in their praise
Of those who have carried the idea so
prominently to the front.
In st. Louis the revealment of process
will be carried out in the Palace of Edu-
cation as well as in the other palaces.
Formerly it was deemed sufficient to
arrange, in booths samples Of text books
and Of apparatus of the laboratory and
observatory. Appliances used in the
schoolroom were displayed convention
ally, and visitors could pass through
aisle after aisle and view only the
technlcalities of the world of instruc-
ton. As result the pedagogue only
was interested.
In st. Louis, however, there is to be
actual demonstration of the use made
Of all such appliances, and the multi
tude will find itself entertained. Thus
the model training school will be
creature Of life-boys to be seen using
the tools Of the various trades. Pupils
Of school for the blind will demon.
strate the methods in vogue where the
sense of touch is made to supply that
Of sight, and those who are deaf and
dumb will also be given opportunity
to display their method of instruction.
College professors ut work in labora-
tories promise entertainment for the
layman, and likewise there will be
demonstration Of the methods en-
ployed in using the modern telescope
and taking photographs of the sun,
moon and stars.
Supplemen eating these active exhibits
will be others quite as interesting that
have been secured from oil over the
world by means of the camera. Enter
one booth and turn the swinging doors
of movable cabinet. You will see
picture after picture illustrating school
life, the children entering class room,
the pupils at recitation, in fire drill,
during the recess hour-in fact,
through all the stages from the hour
when they assemble for their studies
until time comes for dismissal
As illustrations Of public school life
in large cities, New York, st. Louis,
Cleveland and other municipalities
have planned to make extensive dis
plays, while cities Of the old world will
bring their systems into comparison.

ling uf interested citizens and the as
sistance of U. S. Commissioner I. n.
Robnett we secured $210 CT the ap-
preparation made by the government.
The community made up an amount
sufficient to maintain a six months
free school, all of which our commun-
ity is very proud of.
The school began today under the
supervision of Prof. Johnson, who was
employed by the government to con-
duct the present term of six months
The attendance will reach so pupils.
Pleasant Hill is four ana a half
miles southwest of ArdmOre at the
Downard asphalt mines.
The health of our community is fair
ly good at present.
One of the men employed at the
mines happened to the misfortune of
being struck on the head by falling
stone, which rendered him unconscious
for "a hours. We are glad to state
however that he is rapidly recovering.
