main entrance to the Exposition will
let the visitor into the centre of this
group. AS each building covers from
eight to fifteen acres and contains
several miles of aisles, lined on either
side by most interesting exhibits, the
visitor will see his time slipping away
with world of things yet remaining
to be seen.
The Government has spent more on
this Exposition than it has ever ex-
pended before. First, it gave $1,000, 900
to the general fund of the Exposition,
upon consideration that the city of St.
Louis would raise S10,000,000. This
of course was promptly done. Then,
the Government appropriated nearly
a million and . half more for buildings
and exhibits. and few weeks ago de-
cided to make a loan Of S4.600,000 to
the Exposition in order to have the
elaborate plans carried out to their
completeness. The Government can
not lose much on this investment at
st. Louis, for the reason that st. Louis
returns in internal revenue taxes for
the Eastern half Of Missouri alone
over $4,000, 900 year.

Chaplain Hale no longer asks Sena.
tors to join with him in repeating the
Lords prayer at the morning dcvo-
tions. This arises from the fact that
when he did make the request there
was no response. This circumstance
was the basis Of report, printed in
some newspapers, that none OF the
senators knew the prayer. The report
in turn became the source OF no little
anxiety to DIR. Hale.
"Can It be possible that such a de-
plorabie condition of affairs exists?"
he asked more than one senator, and
he was apparently much relieved by
the assurance given him that the
newspaper report was without founda
ton.

said Senator Tillman when he heard
the story. 81 fear they'd all be like
two fellows they tell about down In

of losing their lives by drowning,

should pray, Notwithstanding his com.

This Process Causes, Their Emission, as

That the of digestion, as
well rs Hcl =. uAu muscular activity,
seem to cause the emission of N-rays,
is the conclusion reached by NJ. Lam
bert, in France, after series Of inter
esting experiments. He believes that
these curious rays are produced by
ferments, especially by those con-
cerned in the digestion of albuminoid
matter. In his experiments on diges.

ly, NJ. Lambert placed a small quantity
Of hbrin in tubes containing in one
case activated pancreatic juice, and
in another artificial gastric juice made
by mixing five per cent. solution OF

of hydrochloric acid From these
tubes the Mays were emitted, and
were detected not only by producing
increased luminescence of a phos-
phorescent screen. but also photo.

jective element from the experiment.
As a result of these experiments, NJ.
