The San Antonio Fair.

Of all the spectacles arranged for
the entertainment of the visitors to
the San Antonio International
Fair, none has aroused more inter
est in the public mind that the
collision between two big passen-
ger locomotives each weighing 90
tons.s 1t is a spectacle going to
cost the San Antonio Fair Ass0cia-
ton at least $40, 900 for one minute
of entertainment. The promoters
of the collision have guaranteed to
eliminate all responsibility, and to
further safeguard the public the
smash-up of the engines will take
place in the middle of the race
track enclosure, the public being at
least a thousand feet away from
the place where the engines will
meet.
This is one of the exciting things
the people of San Antonio have ar
ranged for their fair. Another is the
daily fight of an air ship, costing
$500 for each flight. These are two
expensive features, besides there
is the Iggorote village of seventy
FIVE inhabitants. In this village
the people of Texas can personally
meet and shake hands with their
fellow citizens of the far away
Philippines. When these Iggorotes
made their appearance at St. Louis
and made a demand for dog meat
to be included in their daily diet
the organizations devoted to the
! prevention of cruelty to animals in
the Mound City received a severe
jolt. However, when it was ex-
planned that canine flesh was es-
sential to the good health of the
Iggorotes the objections were
brushed aside and the little brown
men had their regulation diet.
These are simply some of the in
teresting features of the San An
tonic Fair which, with the passing
of years, has steadily expanded
and in the parlance of the circus
fraternity is better and greater thar
ever before. There is an unsu
passed line of exhibits il all de-
partmentS and the international
aspect of the Fair is thoroughly
preserved III the large and varied
exhibit Mexico is sending. Thai

by one of its finest fifty piece mil
ltary bands winch plays morning
and afternoon concerts throughout

A quiet home, vines OF our own

inspiration Of genius, few friends
worthy Of being loved and able to
love us in turn, hundred innocent
pleasures that bring no pain or

that Will never swerve. a simple
religion empty of all bigotry full
of trust and hope and love-and to
such philosophy the world will

JUDGE WELSH SAN ANTONIO
Plays Clam to Newspaper Reporters and
Says it is too Early to Talk Politics.

Hon. James B. Wells of Browns
vile was in San Antonio yesterday
on business. He left last night.
He did not say anything for pub
LEGATION in regard to his candidacy
for the Governorship. In fact, he
is not yet a candidate. But when
the time, comes he will be candi-
date all right, and the support that
South and West Texas is framing
up to give Jim" Wells will be
worth while in the convention that
is to nominate the next Governor
of Texas.
Judge Wells stopped at the Men
ger Hotel while in the city and
there he was visited by a great
many old friends and political
friends. He was not idle nor alone
a single moment while he was in
the building.
The callers who saw the states
man from the lower Rio Grande all
called him Jim. There was a
spontaneity about their affection
for the rather big man with the
square jaw what attracted attention
when then they greeted him.
There is no doubt that the COM
ing campaign was the subject of
discussion in the conversation be-
tween the political callers and the
man from Brownsville. But in re-
ply to questions asked by news
paper mel: for publication, Judge
Wells said it is too early in the
day to begin talking politics,
The people will be tired of it long
before election, even if the cam
paign begins much later than this, .

Rome don't rule the world a. little bit.
but she has got religion awful.
The Pope lives here. and he is the
DoSS OF more religious people than
anybody, and though you may belong
TO any other kind of church. and when
YOU are home you don't care "a CONT
mental for any religion except your
own, or your wife's religion, and you
act like an intidel, and scott at good
people, when you get Rome and see
the churches thicker than saloons in
Milwaukee, and everybody attending
church and looking pious you catch
the fever, and try to forget bad things
get chance TO see the Pope,
YOU may so TO his palace just cause
you want TO see everything that is
going on. and you think you don't care
whether school keeps or not, and you
feel Independent, as though this relig-
ion was something for weak people TO
indulge in and finally you come face
to face with the Pope, and see his
beautiful face, and his grand eyes. and
his every movement is full Of pious
meaning, you "penuk' right there,
and want to kncel down and let him
bless you, by gosh.
Say. ] never saw dad weaken like
he did when the Pope came in. We
got tickets TO go to his reception, but
dad said he had rather go TO the cata-
combs, or the lions show at the coll
scum. He said he didn't want to en-
courage popeS, because he didn't be-
.ieve they amounted TO any more than
presiding elders at home. He said he
had always been a Baptist, and they
didn't have any ropes in his church,
md he didn't believe in EN-, but some
Jthcr Americans were going TO see the
Pope. and dad consented to go, under
protest. il being understood that he
!idn't care two whoops. anyway.
Well. sir. we went. and it was the
yrandest thing YOU ever saw. There
we're guards by the thousand, beauti-
ful gardens that would make Central
park look like hay marsh. hundreds
Of people in the. church yeStmcntS,
and an air of Sanctity that we never
dreamed; jewels that are never seen
outside of the Pope's residence, anu
we lined up TO sec the holy father
pass.
Gee. but dad trembled like a dog
tied out in the snow. and the perSpir-
alton stood out on his face, and he
looked soriv for himself. Then came
the procession, all mobiles and great
people. and then there was a
party Of piouS men carrying the most
