The Appeal

THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE: 1-It aims to publish all the news possible. 2-It does so impartially, wasting no words. 3- Its correspondents are able and energetic. THE ACTRESS AND HER ACCENT THE LADY OF THE MIDDLE-STREETS One of the most brilliant comic opera singers of her day—Her success has been somewhat impaired by her imperfect control of English. THE ACTRESS A Success for Foreigner on A Her Ability to Sp Success for the foreign actress who essays to play in English in the United States hinges entirely on the outcome of her battle with her accent. In comic opera, in tragedy, in the polite drama of evening clothes or in comedy, the public demands to understand what is being said, and no genius can reconcile them to actor or actress who speaks in sounds that none can make out. The great tragic geniuses, like Bernhardt or Duse, have not needed to master the English. Their great fame saved them. The divine Sarah could play in French, and the public that knew nothing of the tongue either pretended to, or frankly admitting its ignorance, applauded and professed to get sufficient satisfaction out of the pantomime of the most notable performer of her day. In lesser degree the same was true of Duse, though she could expect a still smaller clientele, as Italian is much less known than French. But actresses who fall only a trifle short of the altitude of these eminent tragediennes have learned that the open sesame to success in Uncle Sam's realm is to study the tongue of the country, hence there is a lengthening line of actresses and singers, who come here ignorant of English, and study in order to act and sing in it. Only lately Mesdames Kalich and Nazimova joined the number. Of all the actresses who mastered English after first acting here in a foreign tongue, none equalled the success of Helena Modjeska. This superb woman, a Pole, first acted here in her native tongue, but found that her achievements in this country were hopelessly barred while she spoke a language that only one person in a thousand understood. With remarkable industry she applied herself to a study of English, and soon mastered it so thoroughly that she not only succeeded, but ranked for a long time as the foremost actress of the day. Fanny Janauschek, an actress of mighty tragic power, who was for a long time Modjeska's greatest rival, was not a German, though her early acting in the United States was done in the tongue of the Fatherland. She was a Bohemian, and there is a world of difference between the two. Janauscheck never became as complete a mistress of English as Modjeska, but she spoke it well enough to earn a great reputation when her powers were in their full. But in later years, after she had gone back some, the new public that had grown up since the first triumphs of the noted "Mary Stuart" and "Meg Merrillies" declined to accept an actress who talked English with an accent. She descended to the cheapest *meidromatic roles*, was for long an object of charity and died in poverty. Hortense Rhea spoke almost unintelligible English, and was never able to gain permanent public recognition. What has been true of actresses has also applied to singers. On the grand opera stage, and singing in German, the celebrated contralto, Madame Schumann-Heink, was one FRITZI One of the most brilliant comic opera been somewhat impaired by h Dought to be satisfied. "I declare, John," exclaimed Mrs. Gabs. "I don't believe you are listening to a word I say!" "Well, I'm letting you do all the talking," rejoined her husband. "What more do you want?"—Chicago News. Too Heavy. "But my good fellow," said the divine, "did you ever take a bath?" "No, sir," the tramp answered, humbly. "I never took nothin' bigger'n a teaspoon." THE MARRIAGE OF THE WESTERN WOMAN Who has been most successful of actresses to overcome accent and master English. of the greatest favorites, and her art was admired by the entire country, but when the ambition to make more money seized this mother of a family big enough to delight President Roosevelt, and sent her out in comic opera, public appreciation somewhat changed. Schumann-Helnk could still sing, but her English in the speaking sections of her operas was enough to make the judicious grieve. Critics and public were polite as befitted the reputation of the foremost contrato of the world, but they never warmed up, and in spite of her great reputation, the singer quit the operatic boards after two seasons and returned to her proper field of serious singing, where she could use her own tongue and escape the perplexities of English. Fritzi Scheff, one of the most charming of singers and actresses, has not had the success to which her great abilities entitle her, and undoubtedly it is the accent that interferes. American and English singers who have not a title of her brains or voice, go along and make huge hits because they can speak English dialogue with a flash and clearness that is impossible to the Austrian. Georgiene von Januschowsky had the same experience when she left the Germania and tried to make good in light opera-sung in English. MADAME Who has been most successful of actress Eng.

She began by acting in the Yiddish tongue and is still having trouble to talk intelligibly. MODJESKA, presses to overcome accent and master english. Madame Ristori, was not able to succeed in English. There is no royal road to success on the American stage for the foreign actress. Hard work is the prescription, and mastery of English the goal. BERLIN POSTAL TUBES. Connect the Central Office With the Principal Stations. The Berlin postal authorities are revolutionizing the conveyance of letters and parcels. The idea on which they are experimenting, says the Chicago Tribune, is to have an underground tube with a large enough circumference to admit a man in a stooping posture. These tubes are to connect the central postoffice with the principal stations and with the district offices. Two sets of rails are built in this tube or tunnel, one over the other, not side by side. The upper set of rails is supported on the sides of the tube, thus practically dividing it in two. Small carriages, running on two wheels, are automatically driven by electricity along these rails. No locomotive is used nor is there any attendant with the carriage. As many as six of these carriages can be run together for conveying letters and parcels from the arrival station to the central postoffice and thence to the various districts, or vice versa. By this means letters can be delivered in any part of the city in less than a fourth of the time formerly required. So far the scheme is not beyond the experimental stages, but it promises to be a success and to banish from the streets the mall van, with all its poetry and romance. Fans for Italian Legislators. In accordance with established tradition the Italian parliamentary reporters have presented Signor Marcora, president of the chamber of deputies, with a large and handsome white Japanese fan covered with journalistic designs and autographs.

In searching for the causes of the remarkable progress Japan has made—especially her uplift from the mediaeval past to the front rank of modern nations, and all within the short period of forty years—it is impossible to overestimate the great services rendered by the handful of really great men who have throughout the entire period of development ruled this nation from the top. What, is often asked, is to become of Japan when her elder statesmen pass away? Speaking broadly, the affairs of this country are still in the hands of the men who began the great work of national reformation at the time of the overthrow of the Shogunate and the restoration of real imperial power to the mikado. In the intervening forty years the great majority of the men who took active part in Japan's great revolution have passed away, but those who to-day stand as the representatives of those statesmen and warriors exercise ust as great an inuence as when the young emperor first turned to them and their fellows for the guidance which he voluntarily pledged himself to follow. Intrusted with the full powers and man's sponsibilities of absolutism, should have turned to others for advice and counsel; but to have retained the counselors during all the years of his rule, to have been guided by their dom, is in itself an evidence of real greatness in a man around whom he been thrown all the temptations of which monarchs fall heir. Of the personality and mental attainments of His Imperial Majesty Mutsu-Hito, few Japanese are qualified to speak, and these do not. No son of Japan looks upon the emperor as mere man. In this democratic age the peculiarly reverential attitude of Japanese toward the head of their nation may be sneered at and condemned as a relic of the past, but there is a gaisaysing the existence of this reverence. As all the old court formalities are still preserved in their medieval strictness, it is doubtful is ever men of the imperial family known much about the personality of him. Indeed, instead of diminishing with the passing years, which have brought many developments and changes in the externals of government, the influence of these elder statesmen has grown steadily greater as every crisis has demonstrated the wisdom of their council and as their association with the emperor has grown more and more personal. Under the constitutional form of government full opportunity is given for the play of politics, for party strife and personal aspirations, but above and beyond this strife, on a higher plane, the emperor and his chosen counselors of the Genro, sit, calm and serene, to render final decision in any issue involving grave national policy, whether this be internal or international in character. Japan knows no such office as elder statesmen, yet all Japan reveres these elder statesmen and bows to the wisdom of their decisions, which find expression in the imperial will. The national veneration of the emperor as direct descendant of defied ancestors does not prevent universal tribute to the elder statesmen in the embodiment of all that is wise and good. It is perhaps natural that, viewing the record of the last forty years, and recognizing the part these men have played in the creation of the new Japan, foreign observers should give to these elder statesmen the entire credit for the transformation. But the tendency of such generalization is to lose sight of one to whom, it seems to me, first credit should be given. This is the emperor himself. It is not at all remarkable that the boy prince who at fifteen found himself not the mere figurehead which so many of his ancestors had been, but EMPEROR Markings of the Palate. Dr. Paul Prager, an army surgeon in Vienna, recommends that prisoners should be identified by the shape of their palates. He says that the system would be much more exact than that of finger prints. He has taken thousands of molds of the interior of the human mouth, but has so far failed to find two which even slightly resemble each other. He says that though the teeth change with time, the markings of the palate remain unchanged through life.

Of the personality and mental attainments of His Imperial Majesty Mutsu-Hito, few Japanese are guilded to speak, and these do not. No son of Japan looks upon the emperor as a mere man. In this democratic age the peculiarly reverential attitude of all Japanese toward the head of their nation may be sneered at and condemned as a relic of the past, but there is no gainsaying the existence of this reverence. As all the old court formalities are still preserved in their medieval strictness, it is doubtful is ever members of the imperial family know very much about the personality of him to To Observe Sea Gardens. A glass tower resting on the bottom of the ocean thirty feet below the surface and extending up into the open air is to be built at Long Beach, Cal.

This will give visitors an opportunity to observe the wonderful sea gardens. Chasing dirty linen up and down a washboard is hard on wedding rings. whose will they all bow. Probably of all the people of this nation only the elders statesmen have had the real opportunity to judge his capacity as a man. First and foremost of these stands Marquis Ito.

UIS ITO. is the institution of a constitutional form of government due. He founded the present Seiyukal or constitutional party, and although now out of active politics is still the most influential of all politicians, the only man who can fairly claim a division of his honor with him being Marshal Marquis Yamagata. If Ito is first of the elder statesmen in the eyes of the world, Yamagata is a very close second in the eyes of Japan. As Ito may in a sense be regarded Japan's Jefferson, so Yamagata may be pictured a combination of von Moltke and Bismarck. Yamagata is both soldier and statesman. Inouye, Mutsukata, Oyama—these three, with Ito and Yamagata, make up the Genro. These five men, with the emperor at their head, form the real directing force of this empire. They are getting old now—all of them. When these have gone there will be no elder statesmen. What, then, of Japan? The question can be asked without necessarily joining with the pessimists who predict that when the present emperor and his old associates pass away things will go to smash. As a matter of fact, there are so many able men among the younger statesmen — safe men as well as brilliant. But will a new emperor have the wisdom to rely upon his councilors, and will it be possible for him to find such advisors as those who helped Mutsu-Hito keep the right path? "To-night will be the night of my life, old man, I am going to propose to Katharine." "That so? Parlor going to be dark?" "Oh, yes." "Better strike a light." "Why?" "Because negatives are always developed in a dark room." Wants Snakes Protected. At a meeting of the Melon Growers' Association it was decided to adopt resolutions for the preservation of all snakes of the chicken and spreadhead variety in the melon belt, and the sense of the meeting was that the increase of the reptiles should be welcomed. The chicken and the spreadhead snakes are the natural enemies of the field mice, and destroy scores of them each day. THING OF THE PAST Wherever he goes, the instinct of the sightseer is to get at least a glimpse of everything beautiful or interesting. In the throng that visits Washington the prevailing idea seems to be: "Let no government institution escape." The eager scrutiny begins before the city is reached, and many a traveler who learns that the burying ground passed by the trains just before the entrance to the Washington tunnel is called the "congressional cemetery," feels a thrill of interest, and adds one more item to the list headed "Don't miss this." For no matter how strong-minded an individual may be a cemetery appeals to the soul bent on improving leisure hours, and a "Congressional" cemetery seems well-nigh irresistible. But the tourists meet with disappointment. They look in vain through the congressional directory for facts concerning the great men buried there; the place is not mentioned. It is not pictured in the guide books, and the "rubberneck wagons" do not pass that way. The megaphone vocalist who dispenses his ready made information has nothing to say about it, and in the jolting, jarring round of seeing the capitol, the library, the department buildings, the homes of famous men, the residences of diplomats, and the other attractions of "our beautiful city," the old burying ground that was once deemed the only fit and proper resting place for the illustrious dead of the nation is forgotten. The oversight is unjust and underserved, for in the process of its growth, acquirement of quasi-official prestige, the gradual loss of distinction as a national charge in everything but name, the Congressional cemetery has all the interest and dignity that age and history give to an institution. Established in 1807, and becoming the property of its present owner, the vestry of Christ church, a few years later, it was by that body formally offered as the burial ground for deceased government officials. In 1817 the vestry set aside 100 burial sites for that purpose, and later, in 1823, 300 more sites were donated to the United States for similar use. For more than 50 years thereafter it was the recognized burying ground for all government officials who died while holding office, as well as for other famous men whose careers justified the placing of their bodies in the graves set aside for public use. Until March of the present year the United States owned no less than 5,000 burial sites in the Congressional cemetery, and the officials who have been buried there or who have monuments erected in their memory include two vice presidents of the United States, one secretary of war, one secretary of state, one associate justime to the supreme court, one secretary to the president (Tobias Lear, secretary to Washington), one secretary of the senate, 142 representatives, one territorial delegate, 26 senators, ten army officers, three navy officers, one foreign minister from Prussia, one Choctaw Indian chief, called Push-Ma-Ta-Ha, one wife of a member of the French legation in 1824 (Catherine Bresson), and one unknown page in the house of representatives. But this was years ago. The last appropriation of government funds for the benefit of the Congressional cemetery was made in 1873. The custom of burying government officials there was practically abandoned shortly after the civil war, and about the only attention given to it by congress since that time has been to refuse to relinquish to the cemetery authorities the valuable government reservations. Congress relented at its last session, however, and turned over to the cemetery most of the public ground. Improvement at the Capital. "The old Seventeenth street canal of malodorous memory" remarked one of the oldest inhabitants of Washington, "will soon be a thing of the pest. Under the systematic march of improvements inaugurated by Col. Bromwell and Maj. Crosby, the army engineers having dual jurisdiction over Potomac park, the canal is being filled up and a causeway built across its mouth. The canal is about half a mile in length and runs from a point near the intersection of Seventeenth and B streets in a southwesterly direction to the river. In the old days it was an important auxiliary to the sewer system of the District, but it is no longer used for that or any other useful purpose. Although ugly in itself, being covered with slime, its shores are lined with beautiful willow trees, which will probably be utilized in the permanent improvement of the reclaimed area. One of the objects of filling up the canal is to permit the construction of a macadamized driveway along the entire river front from the west side of the inlet to the tidal basin to the extreme western end of Potomac park at Twenty-six street, near the old observatory grounds. Persons who have not visited this section of the reclaimed area of the old Potomac fats can scarcely realize how completely transformed it has been into a beautiful park, with driveways, footpaths, gardens and splendid trees."

Distrust all who would have any one class placed before any other. Other republics have fallen because the unscrupulous have substituted loyalty to class for loyalty to the people as a whole. —President Roosevelt's speech at Little Rock, Ark. SATURDAY, AUG, 31, 1907. A NORTH CAROLINA DECISION. A strange incident recently occurred in North Carolina—a procession of 600 persons of all sexes and ages parading before a jury, in order for that jury to determine whether or not they were "tainted" by Negro blood and admissible to attend the white schools or not. The test was by order of the judge and the decision was in favor of the applicants. The case arose as follows: A certain girl, on account of somebody's prejudice, was accused of having the "taint" in question, and, accordingly, barred from the schools. Her parents, thereupon, resorted to law, with the result as stated. It was proved that the girl belonged to two of the most prominent families in the state, including some prominent confederate veterans, and it was claimed that some of the ancestors were Portuguese, which accounted for the dark complexion. And anybody can readily see that at attempt to Afro-Americanize 600 of the most prominent residents of a county was a very hazardous undertaking. The jury seems to have decided the case by mere inspection of the parties in question, which, as everybody G95 Canton, Ohio.—Announcement is made by the citizen's committee having charge of the final arrangements for the dedication of the McKinley monument that the ceremonies positively will be held September 30, and that the President will be here. Owing to the fact that a portion of the marble work prepared for the mausoleum was damaged by fire in Buffalo a short time ago, there was doubt expressed that the monument could be finished in time for dedication. There are assurances, however, that everything will be ready or time. M. B. "THE WHITE HOUSE, Washington, D. C., Feb. 18, 1907.

Sincerely yours. knows is evidence of the filmsim character, and the story of Portuguese ancestry is decidedly fishy. The correct interpretation of the incident is that quite a large number of white people have a strain of African blood. WORSE THAN RUSSIA. The autocrats of Russia are working just as busily as those of our south to perpetuate their own power at the expense of the masses. But the Russian autocrats are by no means as unscrupulous as ours; for we are told that the new law deprives no one who had the right to vote of the privilege of doing so; while the new Georgia dischischishment law wrests that right from thousands. Here is the way the thing is fixed in Georgia: In order to vote, a man must own or pay taxes on $500 worth of property, or be able to read and write a paragraph of the constitution of the State or nation. If he cannot comply with these provisions he is entitled to register and vote if he is descended from any man who fought in any of the wars in which the United States or Confederate States participated. Lastly, he is entitled to register and vote if he has a proper conception of his duty to his State and the nation. Under the last-named provison, every white man in Georgia will register; and once registered, he will have a life certificate, and will then have only to pay his taxes to enjoy the right of suffrage. THE MISSISSIPPI ELECTION. Commenting upon the Mississippi election, the Evening Star says: "It must be admitted that in the campaign Mr. Williams descended at times to the plane of his opponent. He did not keep to the key of a high-class discussion. On occasions he was quite as noisy a bidder for the votes of the 'hill-bilies' and the 'red necks' as Gov. Vardman himself. He showed a surprising capacity for matching bluff with bluff and guff with guff. Some of his deliverances were shocking in a man of his education, travel, uprightness and large experience." If the above is admitted, it simply shows that Mr. Williams understood his fellow citizens far better than the Evening Star does. "High-class discussion" don't count in many districts in Mississippi, and a mere glance at his audience, no doubt, at once manifested to Mr. Williams's practiced eye when to resort to bluff and guff. No doubt but that his "surprising capacity" is the result of much previous and strenuous training. Gen. Luke Wright has resigned his position as ambassador to Japan, a very sensible and commendable action upon his part and very satisfactory, it is said, to the President. Gen. Wright was entirely unfitted for the position, being a genuine, old Bourbon, hide-full of prejudice to the dark-skinned races. This pedigree just oozed from every one of his porcs like perspiration, and at once became manifest to the Japanese, who are just at this time, on the lookout for it when dealing with a man from the United States. So Gen. Wright can now betake himself to Memphis and indulge in jincrowism to his heart's content. Col. Somebody, one of Gov. Vardaman's chief officers was recently accused of a criminal assault upon his lady stenographer. His friends and acquaintances very promptly made arrangement to lynch the colonel, whereupon the colonel skipped and turned up in Memphis. The Governor was probably too much engrossed in his efforts to eliminate the 15th Amendment to pay proper attention to, the morals of his official family. Gov. Vardaman is an engineer foist with his own petard. He has conducted a superheated campaign, in which he has reved and roared like a bull of Bashan over the "nigger" and he winds it up by having to meet the insinuation, made by a prominent Mississippiian in Collier's Weekly, that he"is touched with the tar-brush. "Skidoo." Fifty years ago, the Maoris of New Zealand were cannibals, but today their women vote, and several men of the race are members of the Parliament. The children attend schools and are worthy rivals of the white children. M. B. HON. GEORGE B. CORTELYOU, Secretary of the Treasury, Evolves Plan for Relieving Money Stringency.

Keep It Wrapped in Newspapers for Months, Says a Southern Woman. No what real lace is the rage and and, comparatively few women the lucky enough to own any there is a demand for a process by which modern laces may be made to have the real "old" color. Out of the South come all sorts of old fashioned ideas. An elderly Southern woman, hearing the complaint of a Northernner that hardly any of her "old" lace really looked the part gave a recipe for making new lace look old which she says has never failed in producing the right color. "The whole secret," said she, "lies in a newspaper. We Southern women used to put away our fine laces at the beginning of the summer to keep them nice for the social campaign of the following winter. "We would cut strips of newspaper a trifle wider than the lace to be tinted and carefully sew the edges of the lace to the paper. Then we would make a roll of newspaper about as thick as an ordinary mailing tube and rolled our lace trimmed newspaper strips around this with perfect smoothness. "Next we would wrap the whole in blue paper and seal up the ends. In B. CORTELYOU, Plan for Relieving Money Stringency. Treasury Department will make each five weeks, deposits in national banks, the security required to be approved acceptable under the existing require-understanding that if called for such day 1 next in installments to be fixed the course of two or three months our lace would have the most perfect 'old' look you ever saw. A hundred, years couldn't bring about any better results than a newspaper properly put on. "I know all about the coffee tint and tea tint and dyes, but nothing can ever equal newspaper as coloring material for lace where one wants to wear 'heirloom' lace bought about two months ago." Just now the deer are all down in the foothills, following their usual custom, and reports from the outlying districts show them to be in greater number than usual, says the Anaconda (Mont.) Standard. Almost invariably the deer get out of the snow as early in the spring as possible and come to the lower lands to fawn, following the green grass and the snow line back into the mountains as the summer progresses. This was also the 'habit of the Rocky Mountain sheep when that animal was found in abundance in some of the Montana valleys, but of late years few have been seen in the lowlands, although it is an undisputed fact that the number in Southern Montana has greatly increased during recent years. Smoked in Church. Although the present universal habit of smoking is of comparatively recent date, the use of tobacco was carried to a great excess when it was first introduced. Our ancestors smoked even in church, says the London Chronicle. All such offender were solemnly excommunicated by Urban VIII. in 1624, and again by Innocent XII. in 1690, when the practice seems to have extended to Rome itself. There was William Breedon, too, vicar of Thornton, "a profound divine, and absolutely the most polite person for nativities in that age," of whom the astrologer Lilly says that "when he had no tobacco he would cut the hell ropes and smoke them."

Scene from "Young Buffalo" in "King of the Wild West"—Grand, Fair Week. The Grand will offer its patrons Mr. Chas. E. Blaney's great melodramatic effort, "Young Buffalo," "King of the Wild West," during Fair week, commencing Sunday matinee, Sept. I, and including extra matinee Labor Day. Young Buffalo, until last year was a reality, and the story of the play is his own experience on the Arizona plains. It is an unusually interesting and wonderful story, wonderfully told. Mr. Blaney used exceptional and selective of the company to portray the various roles, as well as to make a selection of the characters in every detail. The third set scene, showing Young Buffalo's rescue of his sweetheart from a railroad tower-house, is thrilling in the extreme, and will surely cause much comment. The comedy element is very strong, and there are many laughable situations. The company numbers thirty people and a band of real Sioux Indians, who have ample opportunities to display their many picturesque actions which make them the most interesting characters on the American stage.

Alexander have returned from their sad mission to Big Falls, Minn., where they went to investigate the murder of Mr. C. H. Williams, father of Mrs. Alexander. They found that he had been brutally murdered by a man named Godette, who was in his employ and who, doubtless, thought if he could get Mr. Williams out of the way, he could obtain possession of Mr. Williams' claim. He was 99 years old, of the murderer has a very unenviable reputation and was greatly feared by the people in that neighborhood. He claimed he killed Williams in self-defense, but circumstances tend to make the claim is unfounded. Mr. Williams was the officer of the Methodist church, and the pastor of the same testifies to his excellent Christian conduct. Besides his timber claim, he was the possessor of some property in Bir-Falls County, where he was durable. During their trip Mr. Mrs. Alexander were the recipients of every courtesy of the people of that country could give. Mr. Williams had been nicely buried the morning after the suspect had had the respect and esteem of all the zens. The murderer has been taken to Benidji for safe keeping.

"The Mesaba Ore." the leading paper of the iron range, says: "The four games played with the St. Paul Gophers were, beyond question, the best exhibitions of ball playing ever witnessed by the Hibbing team, a lot of young men, and during their stay in Hibbing conducted themselves as such. Manager Reid is to be congratulated upon getting together such an aggregation of good ball play, and he gave them the Gophers he wanted for themselves a high place in the opinion of the people of Hibbing and are a living example of what the Afro-American can and will do if given an opportunity. Manager Reid expressed himself as such, saying that a memorized received here and says that Hibbing has the best independent ball team he has met during his travels this season. Should the Gophers ever return to Hibbing they may rest that they will receive the best that the people of this city have to offer." 2 DR. D. FANTLEROY.

A stirring letter has been written by CM Cringe hist vice netsldent of the Minnesota State Fair, to the people of St. Paul; in which he urges theit active co-operation. in making the state fair of 1907 a success, The state fair’ opens on Monday, Sept. 2, and Mr, Griggs believes that St. Paul can do enough to make the great event surely the greatest in the long list of Minnesota fairs. Mr. Griggs says in his letter: “Your co-operation in. the work of the great Minnesota Stite Fair is wanted. The date is Sept. 2-7 inclu- sive. For a number of years, this has been the best attended and. greates: state fair in. the country. ‘The high standard of the past in exhibits and amusements will be maintained this year, and more than the usual at- tendance can be secured if every one will help. It reauites a general and aggressive interest on the part of the People and the newspapers to secure results, “Iniportant | ant costly improve- ments are being made... Forty acres have been added to the grounds. A new dairy” hall and’ a new poultry building are being constructed, each of which will cost $25,000, A ‘sewer ‘system is being constructed which, with the necessary connections and accessories, will cost $50,000. A new and complete lighting plant. is being planned, the cost of which will be $25,000. The grand stand is being thoroughly repaired. The. half-mile has been reconstrircted. Much grad- ing has been done and accommoda- tions for vistors have been. vastly improved. The old buildings’ are be- ing repaired, much painting is being done and " everything ‘about the grounds, whether. new or old. will be bright and attractive when the great fair opens. The fair of 1907 will be much larger, much more comprehen- sive and much more interesting than any of its predecessors, “A rich program of high-class amusements has-been prepared. For harness horses alone $27,000 is of- fered in purses. The racing will equal if not excel the grand circuit racing of the East. Gregory’s spectac- ular fireworks will be seen each night; an airship will make daily flights. Dan Patch will attempt. to again lower his record on Monday, and Sweet Marie will try for a lower mark on Thursday. There will be an automobile program Saturday, and each afternoon and evening will be seen a splendid list of special attrac- Hong. iste tee 1 “St. Paul should be well represent- éd among the exhibitors. It pays to display goods before such crowds as attend this fair, ~ “Help to advertise the fair. Write about it and talk about it. This fair will continue to be the big event of the country so long as everybody boosts. Each man, woman and child in St. Paul should be seen at the fair at some time during the week and the attendance should be especially large on Friday, Sept. 6, which will be St. Paul day.” SAFE DEPOSIT AND STORAGE VAULTS.—We invite your inspection.
