AND A FEW OF THE THINGS TO BE SEEN WHILE THERE. The Pain-American Exhibition about which so much has been said and written is a task too big for us to un- dertake to describe. but having Spent a couple of days there we must say something for the benefit. of our readers. ”no person who Visited the grounds for the first time at night, Said it. re- minded him of Heaven The chances are there is quite a difl'erence in the two places. but for all that the scenic magnificence wnll force a supernatur- al comparison. l'lvez'ythiug there is gotten up to take the eye (and we might say the money too) but with exception of the: electric tower, and the New York State buildings the constructions are flail. awl the frosts of a single win- n~r woulil give the whole place a most tlllflpllliliell appearance. A few weeks more and the_,purposee for which this hxautiful city was put. tlwx'e. will he at an end and nearly everything will be torn downnand removed. We underStand the elec- [l'lti tower is to be taken to St. Louis to (lo duty there in the exhibit. of 11°05}, and the New York State build- ing. a beautiful structure of solid marble will be retained by the city for some purpose of which we are not prepared to give information ly the first of May next the whole work is to he demolished and every thing, cleared away and left as it was before the commencement of Opera- tions over a year ago. The following description of the tower, copied from a little guide hook, will give an idea of the size of things. It saysz-While you are here (meaning the plaza) the ascent of the tower should be made. The two great elevators have been thor- oughlv tested and are absolutely safe. The tower is 3315 feet high and the elevators take you up ‘278 feet. You can walk the rest of the way if you want to. but from the big bal- eony surroumling the tower at this height you can get a splended view, on a clear day, of the country for thirty mill-s around, and unless your eyesight is very poor you can see the spray rising from the Niagara Falls. uXuCtly north-west from where you Stand. The trip up the elevator costs twenty-live cents, and you can get a field glass for ten cents at the top of the tower and use it as long as you stay up there. Elevators run from 9 a. n). to 10 p. m. The .res- taurant, half way up the tower, is high-~in location and price. The electric tower is certainly a marvel of beauty before which the 5 spectator must feel a grant! reverence for the achievements of his fellow beings in the accomplishment of such Imtgtntivence. But we cannot dwell on the electric lights. the waterfalls. the fountains, the statuary, the var- ious styles of architecture, the an i- titziul lulu-s. the subterranean water- ways, am! the thousand and one oth- er transfonmuions necessary in converting plum, t'ottgh ground into all the appearances of a splendid city. The Stadium, ”80 ft. by 450 feet, is of classical architecture and copied from the Stadium at Athens. It has a mating capacity for 12,000, and the Sports and live stock exhibitions are lwld here. The sculpture consists of classical figures and groups around the main entrance. It is said to he the largest and most beautiful arena ever erected in this country. l‘he Horse shows. Automobile tourna- ments aml Athletic games and Sports take place here. All admissions free. In the outer part may be seen a large and very interesting exhibit of agricultural machinery of all kinds. including sugar and plantation tnachinery. Our first glimpse of the big show was at-night. When the illuminations were all on. and viewing the hund- reds of thousands of electric lamps illuminating and beautifying that temporary city causes a very peculiar sensation to the observer. The opin- ions expressed regarding the illumin- ations particularly have not been exarvgerateil. They were fairly astoundinur to most people and even Edison himself who has Spent his life amorwst electrical devices felt. that this "land illuminating spectacle had surpassml his most sanguine ex~ pectations. l‘he Canada building is quite near the stadium, and the sight of the Union Jack is an invitation to every lover of Canada to pay it a visit. A large bison in the centre of the build ing is the first attraction and an in- troduction to a remarkably fine collection of stuffed animals. The internal decorations are beautiful and artistic in their arrangement, and will well repay the visitor for a half days inspection. The Temple of Music. 150x150 feet, is a beautiful structnro of Classical Renaissance Architecture. Height. of dome 180 feet, cost $85,000, seats 2200. This is the building in which President McKinley was assassinated ‘ and it. is needless to say is visited by thousands every day. The exact Spot. where the Assassin committed the fell deed is now surrounded by a railing, and a constant stream of spectators is viewing it incessantly. At [our o’clock each day a ”and or- gan recital takes place. The organ cost 818.000. . On the Midway there no about fifty dilutem shows running in price from 10c to 50:. Anyone within; to THURSDAY. To Emma or DURHAM CHRONICLE, DEAR Sm :â€"It has been raining here every day for about two weeks, I am tired doing nothing so have de- cided to write a short letter to you and the readers of the Chronicle. spend money has ample opportunity to do so. but apart from these alto- gether there is suficient attraction to engage the attention entirely free. The exhibition outside of the Midway attractions cannot be at- tempted in a day or two. In that time, only a mere taste can be taken. In our opinion a whole month could be spent there, and it would be a month of educational advancement. Each visitor to the show has no doubt a special fancy for some par- ticular department and it is hardly necessary to say that we found much to see and much to learn in the Graphic arts workshop where every- thingin the printing line could be seen in actu‘al Operation on the best machinery that it is possible to pro. cure. The regular work of printing in its various departments is going on all the time and crowds are seen around the cages. some of them wit- nessing for the first time, perhaps, the printing press at work. This is a very pretty country around here and the crops are yield- ing very well; wheat will average over 2.3 and oats about 50. The machines are all fitted with self-feed- ers and cyclone stackers or blowers. 'l‘hey thresh from 1000 to 1500 of wheat and from 2000 to 3000 of oats per day. Small farmers here have from4days to a week’s threshing and manv of the large farmers from 3 weeks to a mouth. Prospects were very bright for the Manitoba farmer till the rain started, but now some of them feel very gloomy indeed. The majority of the people around here intend to Stook- thresh and some of them have not stacked at all. There are thousands of acres around here standing in the stook. This grain is all bleached and will not bring within Go. a bushel of the stacked grain. Stock threSh- ing is one of the curses of the Mani- toba farmer. 'l‘here isa great tempt- ation to thresh out of the stock and be done with it and once stook- threshing starts and the machines get their men the farmers can get no men to stack. These last two or three weeks when the grain was dry enaugh to stack farmers were ofler- ing 82.00 and 82.25 per day and could not get men. They would be thous- ands of dollars in pocket if they would club together and not let a man start to thresh till stacking is about all done. It costs 2c. a bushel more to thresh from the stock, takes more men and teams, and makes greater expense in every way besides the risk at having the grain bleached as it is this year. I have never seen better crops of potatoes than are here this year. 'l‘hey are all free from scab and look like our new-land potatoes. Cabbage. canliflowers, tomatoes. cucumbers and all garden vegetables cannot be beaten by the best Ontario gardens. In the Mines Building the exhibits of minerals in the Canadian depart- ment is highly gratifying. each spec- imen being labeled giving full par. ticulars regarding the locality from which it was taken as well as other information. Tiffany’s exhibit of precious stones contains a $15000 gold nugget. The Arizona petrified wood is worth considering. Here we find whole sections of trees pol- ished like granite, but much harder and showing the grain of the natural wood. Gold bricks {or the mint, weigh 100 lbs. and are valued at 825000. There is also to be found here a twenty ton display of copper at an estimated value of $7000. The weather has been beautiful up till the time this rain started, and it seems to be settled again to-day and we expect another month of fine weather. I was glad to hear that your cem- ent works are progressing so rapidly. [here will be a great demand here for cement in the near future. I noticed that the city of Winnipeg were to close tenders for 2,500 bbls. of cement on the 23rd. Winnipeg is the only place I have seen cement sidewalks since I came out. There are none in Brandon or the Portage. The farmers who are putting up new stables are all putting in cement floors, and good outbuildings like these are just starting here. The Western farmers are erecting a larce hinder-twine factory in the city of Brandon this (all the Company has 8100.000 capital taken by the farmers in 820 shares; it is in con- nection with this undertaking that I am employed at present. The West will never move ahead as it should till they are able to do more manu- facturing. The C. P. R. and the middleman put their machinery, hinder-twine, etc., at scandalous prices. Here are some of the prices: Binder twine 12 to Ho. per lh., hind- ers 8150 to 8160, seeders 8145 to 8185, snlkey plows 875 to 885 and all other gimplements in the same proportion. more ebout Monitobt but.

The Jubilee Singers that rendered such an excellent concert a year ago have been engaged to sing in the Toun Hall, Durham, eally in Oct. This will be one of the musical treats of the season. They will be accom- panied by a full orchestra. Full particulars later. The Rev. Wray R. Smith preached at the Varney Harvest Home service on Sunday evening. The Rev.

Passionate denunciation of the murder of William McKinley and impotent anger at it are out of place, however natural. This act at viol- ence strikes the nation hard, but it is only one of the many acts of violence which are Staining the American name, violence which can. not be foisted upon one wretched Pole. The spirit of violence in word and action, contempt of law, con- tempt of the rights of others, is common and wide-spread. A country in which lynchings and burnings at the stake are frequent, in the name of labor, men and women seeking to work are assaulted. maimed. killed, or driven to insanity or suicide by organized moral torture. is acountry in which assassination, call it what you will, is not an unusual but a frequent occurrence. Wherever in the United States law is defied and fut" its processes the will of individua's is substituted there the spirit of assassination reigns. By the bier of William McKinley thoughts of vengeance on his mur- derer are out of place. This supreme triumph of lawlessness should make every man and woman resolve to up- hold the law always and in every- thing. and to put far away from them that thirst for private ven- geance which survives from savagery. and that heat and hysteria ol' the mind which prompt to intemperate speech and doetl.â€"â€"New York Sun. The assistant commissioner of crown lands, Mr. Aubrey White. has written in reply to a letter from Lieut. Col.

The right of the claimant to a grant. must first be decided, then all forms applied for must be distributed and all applica- tions tiled here. Until this has been done no authority will be granted to anyone to locate ” The above refers to the land grants to veterans of the Fenian raid. Those who have not yet filed their claims should do so at once through the senior officer of the company to which they belonged, and facilitate the work of making the grants and the location of the lands.
