There is one thing that I have not yet iken alsmt that interests a great many ssiplc, viz, the art department. This is the Mecca for a great many people. I think more ts-ople visit it than any other de partment. To thH who visit it I would say get a catalogue the first thing. It will pay you as you w ill get a great deal more out of it, as you will understand what is meant by the pict ures so much Is'tter. Some pictures show at a glume what they meun, while other do not. If I were making rule to govern an ai t gallery, one of the first would lie, that u the bottom of every picture thut wus exhibited there should I lie printed in the Fnglish language, the name of the artist and the picture and a brief description of w hat w as intended by the picture. In the Swccdish department there is one nsiin tilled with pictures by Kruno Lillgefors. They are all animal pictures and some of them are us line or liner than any thing, of the kind, I ever saw . The limits of this article will not t- mit me to attempt a description of them, but will only indicute what they are, so that any one w ho sec this may look for them. One is a pheasant sitting in a tree. Another is a fox iu the snow on the top f a mountain. A third is a rabbit ls- ing pursinsl by an eagle. These will all repay a careful examination. Passing on you come into the (Senium depart ment. There are some historical paint ings here that are very interesting. "The Congress of Berlin," The death of William the First uud The Kaiser con gratulating Yon Mm-lke on Ins With birthday. There is also a picture of a lot of Tyrolere mountaineer coming out f church. In studying these pictures one is struck with the immense amount letail that is put into each picture. There will Is.' fifty or more faces' 111 one picture and every one ja-rfevt. The lothing, down to the very smallest de tail, is js-rfect. If you stand back and look at the slns's in one of the large pictures you are almost w illing to swear that they are real slus-s. "The Con gress of IVrlin" is also attractive for the reason that it contains the fncca of the most celebrated men in Fitros includ ing such men as IJisiiiiuk, faiisnury, Disrath. Gortschakoff and others. The historical painting are all by Von Wer ner. Some of them are thirty feet long hv alsmt twelve or fourteen feet high. The British, liclgitiu, Holland and Can adian departments contain many nice paintings, but nothing that particularly attracted my attention. The French de partment had some very la-autiful pit tures, most of them, however, are pic tures of ladies who bad evidently gone away from home and left their wardrol? or had gotten ut) early to have their ..ictures taken and hadn't time to dress. There is a picture of Eve giving the a) pie to Adam. Now while I am very fond of apples, particularly if they hapK'ii to lie of the Northern Spy variety, I have always hail it in for Adam a little alstut his conduct on thut occasion. hen I reflected that if he had only restrained himself for a little while, we would not only not have had to work, but would not ever have to die. I have felt "pretty sore" towards the ol.l man and the only thing that bus kept me from tulkinu pretty hard alsmt him was the fact thut lie was young and incxKriciifcd and the further fact that he was a relative of mine, lsjing my grout, great grandfather. Hut if this picture is a correct representation of the circum stances, and Eve was as pretty as she is represented to la; I am ready not only to forgive the old man, but asilogi.e. I would have eaten anything she would have asked me to, even if it had ls-en arsenic. I would have done anything she asked me to, even if it was to jump into the river. I am already to testify that Adam was not ressinsiblc for his actions and that w hatever he did was justifiable. It is when you come to the Japanese . partincnt, however, that you see some things that are very wonderful. I do not know .that it would Is; correct to all them paintings for they are not painted at all. They are pictures, but they are not painted. Most of them are embroidered and they are far ahead of any istinting. Suite ( them are made 011 cut velvet. The pr.s'ess was ex plained to me, but I ant not quite sure that I understand it. I will say, how ever, that the pictures are made by a loom: small copis-r wires used as filling and are woven into a Isaly of velvet an.l then the threads of velvet are cut in certain place where the picture is to Is' produced. Instead of one man making the picture there may le a half a doxen working at it at once. How the editing of the threads pr.slnees the effect thut it does I cannot understand, but it is certainly marvelous. The more I see of the Japanese and of their pr.sliiclioiis the more of a "Jap" I am. The Ameri can Art department was not yet ojam Isn't that a sham to on this country to think that it art exhibit should Is-the hist one to ls nut in nlace. I was dis- aplxiinted because I was not able to see it. I came awav feclina that while there are some fine paintings here yet on the whole, it Is at h ast no lmprov- ment on the Art exhibit at Chicago, am certain that I saw no pictures that will leave the impression tion me that was left bv some of the pictures at Chicairo. particularly by Breaking Home ties and Watts "biveand Life an.l "Love and Death." Go to the art tcimrtmeiit in the morning while vott are fresh, and stay until yon get tired Then quit and look at something else It will do you no g.ssl to hsik at pic tures when you are tired; you mis the j beauty that i i in them. If they do not Go To The Delta Drug Store install electric fans it is going to is? ter ribly hot in the art buildings this sum mer a there are a great muiiy inside rooms with a very sair chance to get any fresh air. There ia another subject w hich I do not like to ss-ak alsuit in connection with the fairs, but 011 account of our Is'wis and Clark fair, I feel thut I shoul.L It is presistently stated thut certain of the head otliciuls of the fair are interested in certain concessions in side the grounds and are usiii their otliciul swition to fill their iss kets. To la- more explicit. There is a restaurant inside the grounds known as the Na tional restaurant. It is one of the plac es thut are very high in their prices. There are a lurge nuinU r of young men in uniform inside the grounds, whose lutv it is to act as guards, preserve order, answer questions etc. They are given their positions bv the fair com mission. 1 hey are resigning everyday, sometimes two at a time. 1 hev say that they are ordered to eat at that res taurant and at no other und arc threat ened with discharge if thev do not ols'y. Yesterduy a young man recommended bv Governor iH-ubin, of Indiana, wus discharged and he says that he was dis charged la-cause he refused to eat at thut restaurant and pay the extortion ate prices. It is not two or three only w ho make these charges, but dozens of them, so that one is coniiellcd to I' lieve them to la' true. Every cars'ii ter or contractor w ho takes a contract to build a building adds a la rue sum to his bid on account, us he savs, of the st.M'k w hich he is coiiiS'lled to buy Irom the ollicials in order to get the contract. When the Oregon commission wanted to have the Oregon building put up, the contractor asked fiMtXI for it. On lieing remonstrated with, he frankly admitted tliat $:t(NH) was enough, but he said he had figured $H00 for worthless fairst.s k which he would have to buy if he took the contract. lie offered to do it for $:tHI0 if they would protect him itguinst the st.s'k deul. Of course the head men say there is nothing iu it, thut they don't cure whether lie buysst.s'k or not, but all the same the contractors insist that it is true and their offer is evidence that there is something in it. Many of the "big men" in the management, sul- scrils-d considerable to st.sk up the the fair. It is now evident that the sUs'k is worthless and that if the govern ment nets back its tt.lUMI.IKHJ loan with out trouble, it will l luckv. Therefore if they can conijs'l all the con'ractors to take a lot of this st.s k off their hands, thev are that much ahead.

This created a feeling of distrust und it is to be hoMsl that 110 feeling of this kind will ever have any grounds to support it. A telegram yesterday, from Sir Ibiw- mun, advised ine 01 me ieam 01 .or. M or nun, the substitution of MrG.slitian and the election of the entire republi can ticket. I was very sorry, indeed, to hear of Mr. Morgan s death. lie will lie, urreatlv missed. The committee certainly did a w ise thing in putting Mr. Gislman on the ticket. I am certain that it strengthened the whole ticket and now that the whole ticket is elected, I see no reason why the unfor tunate differences w Inch have nerciorore interfered with republican success in Washington county should not disap- is'ttr. 1 isBlieve ine party win oc p.i.n.h- er now than ever la-fore an.l thut we will give Roosevelt from 00 to iikki ma jority this full. This isthe Is-st news I have had for a long time. rite republican here were much interested and very much pleased over the results of the Oregon election. They think it showed which way public senti ment is running. I he feeling is almost universal thut Roosevelt w ill Is- elected. Iu fact I have not talked with tint a . t al..... very few itein.s-rats who mum mn have a show. A few of the Hearst democrat are claiming thut he will Is elected if nominated. But I can find nothing to bear out that statement. Everv dent. s-rat thut optsistsi uryun, is ipx.e I to Hearst and a few that sup- tsu-ted iiryan are against nun. . - ineiit detnis rat here yesterday, (a phy sician w ho is a son of one of the senator. ial governor of Oregon) said, "I don't . . .. .1... .1... know whether Ihev can prove nun ine union miner blew up the Indeis'iidence mine in Colorado and killed the twelve non-union miners or not, but if they do prove it, Hearst and his newspaH-rs will approve of it and defend the unions for doing it." We left St. Louis and came to Matt.s.n, VI.. ron nlc Illinois, the early homo of Abraham Lincoln, and remained there four day. Lincoln' father is buried on the old farm, but the house is gone. It was taken to Chicago in INM. W hen I realiacd that I was tramping over the same ground that Lincoln did lit Ins youthful days; the place where he split the rails that were mentioned so often during his canvas for the presidency, it seemed to me that the soil was almost sacred. The eople who live near there however, do not seem to take much in terest in the matter, with the exception of a few sis-aking of the cabin, reminds me that the original cabin built by Gen. Grant when he lived near St. bulls, is on exhibition at the fair. It is a won derful commentary on the opM.rtunities offered in this country that men of tin low ly origin and surrounding as these should have Is-en among the most hon ored presidents of our country.
