baud are t!ire,
tbe Exposition
of 16 92 was
thrown open to
the public this
evening; at eipiit
o'clock. It can be said without the
sl'phtest fear of contradiction that Pitts
burgh has never had an Exposition so
brilliant; even at the first glance the Im
provement in the buildings themselves
and in the exhibits is apparent. There
is practically nothing in the Exposition
that was seen here last year; the main
ball itself has been preatly beautified by
the painting of the raftered roof In bright
tones of white and red. As the crowd
circulated anions the booths they found
a multitude of thins to admire, and the
decorations and lighting of the great
halls came in for a great deal of praise.
The accomodation for all who want to
ret and watch the endless procession of
ti:i:LUers is larger than ever this year,
but to-night every seat was taken. It
was an enthusiastic crowd; not one
among the thousands present but was
astonished and delimited.
The iew gallery opposite the band
stand will evidently be greatly appreciat
ed, as it was crowded to-night, while
everv teat uiin the ground floor was aNo
occupied. Jul Levy's Hind Is a superb
onrauiiatiou. and the initial concert of tle
f-eason delighted the immense sudieucu.
The Levy iiaiid will remain here till
Octolier ist, when Miss Kavmond and
Ellis Brooks with their famous organiza
tion will arrive to supply the music for
the balance of the Exposition season.
Mr. Levy is as wonderful a performer
Ujon the cornet as ever. Iiis smIus to
night electrified the ix-ople. He seems
to be one of the few men who can pet
sweetness and poetic feeling out of the
cornet as well as martial clangor and
Mirring appeal. It is said that Miss
Ilaymond who Bill apK'ar at the exposi
tion later cu, In addition to being a re
markably fine figure of a womin, as the
accompanying portrait indicates, is a
feniiuiiie Levy in the mastery of the cor
net. She has been creating a sensation
at the eastern summer resorts, ami much
is expected of her visit to Pittsburgh in
October.
There was indeed music enough in and
about the Exposition to-night, for in ad
dition to Levy's liand inside the main
ball, a steam organ pumped melody of
the latrct and most popular brand all
over the young people who mounted the
horses, lions, zebras, deer, and other
animals upon the monster merry-go-round,
which has been erected at the ex
treme western end of the Exposition
grounds. From to-night's experience it
is plain that the mcrry-go-roand, will be
immensely popular. The comely pagoda
iu which this big playihinz is housed is
su roomy that hundreds can sit and look
on hile the troop of animals, including
a handsome rooster by the way, with its
laughing riders swiftly revolves. Com
fortable seals h-vc been provided lor
sectators, and mothers wilh lare fam
ilies will appreciate the privilege of be
ing aide to rest and still keep an eye on
the venturesome small boy.
Hut lalkiiis of comfortable scats it
riiUst be acknowledged that those to
be found In the new concert hall which
lias lieen added to the main building are
pimply perfef tiou lu tlnir way. The hall
iiself is a inot.t cheery place,, with lofty
walls waiiiM-otted from floor to ceiiii;
with polished yellow pine, and brilliantly
lit with electric lichts. The seats, of
which there are 8' i, are of hard bent
vj; -1 . v
wood, nicely carved as to bak and scat,
so as to accomodate the fattest man,
while the space between the rows is so
wide that Goliath himself wonld have
lots of room there to stretch out his legs,
heated in one of these chairs the visitor
to the Exposition may travel anywhere
mil everywhere. This sounds strange,
but the explanation is that Prof. C'rora-wt-11
will occupy the stai;e in this pretty
little hail, and by the magic of his stere
opticon and his eloquence, transport the
audience this minute to the sun-lit
palaces of the l'liaroahs, the next to
loggy London cr the banks of the Heine
la tiiat city to which some Americans
liopi to go when they die. Professor
Cromwell says that he never found a hall
that sui.cd bis purpose so weli as thia
one: the electric lighting apparatus tit
ling in so well with the lecturer's stereo
scopic arrange met: ts. and making cast
those startling transitions from one scene
to another, which are a part of the charm
of Professors Croiun ell'6 entertainments.
Some idea of the range and character of
these personally conducted world tours
Hay be gleaned from the itinerary which
Mr. Cromwell announces. It Includes
visits to Paris, London, Chicago and the
wild West, Rome, Berlin, Sweden and
Norway, Italy, Jerusalem and the Holy
Land, Ireland. Switzerland, and a host of
other inierestiug cities and lands. All
these places are brought leforc the an
dieurc through the medium of immense
photo graphic views. Professor Crom
well's stereopticon is a superb instru
ment and the pictures he produces with
it are realistic to a degree. Nor dix s he
deal with cold bricks and mortar, or in
animate nature mlusivtlv; when be
takes you into England he shows voa the
home-life of its people, and his lectures
on Paris include such interesting excur
sions from ttie beaten track as glimpses
of t'.ie great World's Fair held tUere re
cently, which it is Chicago's ambition to
rcllp-c. In every journey there are stops
for refreshments is it were, when lro
f eMr Cromwell exhibits masterpieces of
painting and sculpture from the art gal
leries of Enrojie, or some notable allegory
such as - The Hock of Ages." But good
as the pictures are Mr. Cromwell' dis
criptivc lowers are better still, and
foreign land, are brought vividly before
the Se tator.
The machinery hall, as well as the floor
and gallery of the luaiu building, is filled
with iutcreting exhibits, aud the only
complaint heard among the visitors u
uight is that there is really more in the
Exposition this year than can be comfor
tably wen or heard iu one visit. The
rivalry lietweeu the great Ciry poods
bouses of the two cities has resulted in a
niagnillcient display of those things that
tire the feminine heart; dreams of lace
and silk, furs that would bankrupt a
Croesus to buy, ducks of bonnet i and
more woudcrful devices for euchantiug
our better half's charms than a tnaa
could find names for. The array of
ncf il and bcaut-Iid manufacture b u-
Ijl
osnailv riched and varied, and such
specialties as the great bicycle exhibit,
which has a house all to itsta outside the
Exposition proper, will be found of great
Interest. In short it only seems fair to
the Exposition management to congratu
late them npon their ingenuity and enter
prise in improving so much npon their
former efforts.
The immense throngs that visited the
Exposition to-night and their evident de
light, indicate that from the very start
the attendance will be larger than ever
before.

A Kentucky Mule.
Sam Parson's gray mule Zeke is old
and gray, but he possesses great strength ,
both of understanding and of body.
Saturday old Sam concluded that he
wouldn't work, and accordingly he
shouldered his muzzle loading rifle and
went hunting. Eat before departing he
turned Zcke cut to graze.
Finding the grass around the parson's
cabin rather scanty, Zeke wandered
down the edge of the creek next to the
mountain 6ide. There within the shad
ow of the woods hestrucka nice, tender
clump of grass and immediately began
to eat it with great delight. While en
gaged in this congenial task a large black
bear came down the mountain side and
approached Zeke. Zeke had probably
never seen a bear before, as the ursina
trilte has long been scarce in those moun
tains. Nor is it likely that the bear had
ever on any previous occasion looked
upon a mule. But this bear was huncry
and, while Zeke was bi?ger game than
he had bargained for, be evidently
thought it worth while to take ,a look at
him, for he came a little nearer.
Zeke was not a bit afraid. He had
never stood in awe of manhosd, not even
Old Sam, his master, and it was not like
ly that at this late period of his life he
would be afraid of any four footed creat
ure that walked the earth. Zeke calmly
went on with his pleasant task of eating
grass. The bear edged up another yard.
Zeke switched Lis tail and cleverly
knocked a fly oT his back, and being re
lieved of the burden of the insect still
munched the grass.
The bear began to grow inquisitive.
He evidently did not understand what
kind of an animal Zeke was, his studies
in zoology being limited. He stood upon
Lis Launches and growled, notasathnat
but as a kind of friendly ealule. Zeke
did not raiue his head, but still munched
the grass. The bear stopped growling
and walked in a respectful circle around
Z;-ke, studying him from every corner.
Hs miht have been a hundred miles
away for all the notice Zeke took. Tbe
bear was puzzled and uttered another
growl of interrogation. Again finding
himself unnoticed be began to grow an-
TLe bear went around behind Zeke
and came very close, evidently determin
ed to try by tocch to arous? the stracge
aniniaL Suddenly Zeke doubled hiuit-elf
up in a knot and leaped high in the air.
Two legs flew out of the bunch like piston
rJs and caught the bear in the side,
whirling him over a complete somersault.
When he struck the ground be righted
himself and rushed away with a grow l
of ruiru Bat Zeke was hot after him,
and tbe bear, seeing that he would be
overtaken, scrambled np a hickory tree,
b-irely missing a terrible drive of Zeke'a
hind heels.
Nxm came and still Zeke was nnder
the tree. The afternoon passed. It was
almost sundown, but still Zeke was
there. The bear could stand it no long
er. Zeke was about twenty feet away
from the tree, apparently Ukirg no
notice, and accordingly he crawled down
the trunk as quietly as possible, intend
ing to slip away in the forest. Barely had
he touched the ground w hen Zeke turn
ed with a snort and leaped npon him.
Sj fast did his hind legs flash back
and forth that they looked like the dry
ing rods of an engine. In a minute the
bear was dead, every bone in his bc'y
broken. Mrs. Parsons, who saw it all
from the door of her cabin, says that the
b3ar didn't even have time to growL
When asked w by she hadn't taken the
gun from the house and shot the bear in
the tree for she is a girl woodsman and
bold as a man she replied :
"I knowed Zeke riidnl need no help,
and besides I didn't want to spile the
fun."-.Y. )'. Sun.
Harrison's lefier cf Acceptance.
(Onfinuf from Firtt Ptry.)
al flag are hopeful indications that the
coming generation will direct public
affairs w ith increased prudence and patri
otism. riBLICSHOOI.
Our interest in free public schools open
to all children of suitable age is supreme
and our care for them will be jealous and
constant. The public school system,
however, was not intended to restrain
the natural right of the parent, after con
tributing to the public school fund, to
choose other educational agencies for bia
children..
I favored aid by the general govern
ment to tie public schools, with a special
view to the necessities of some of the
Southern States. But it is gratifying to
notice that many of these States are with
commendable liberality, developing their
school systems and increasing their
school revenues to the great advantage o
the children of both races.
FACTS FOR FARMERS.
The considerate attention of the farm
ers of the whole country is invited to
the work done through the State and
Agricultural Departments in the interest
agriculture. Our pork products bad for
ten years been not only excluded by the
great continental nations of Lurope, but
their value discredited by the reasons
given for this exclusion.
All previous efforts to secure the re
moval of these restrictions had failed,
but the wise legislation of the Fifty-first
Congress, providing for the inspection
and oilicial certification of our meats, and
g ivirg to the President power to forbid
the introduction into this country of se
lected product of such countries as
ehould continue to refuse our inspected
meals, enabled us to open all the mark
ets of Europe to our products. The re
sult has been not only to sustain prices
by providing new markets for our surplus
but to add fifty cents per hundred pounds
to the market value of the inspected
meats. Under the reciprocity agree
ments special favors have been secured
lor agricultural products, and our exports
of such products have been greatly in
creased, with a sure prcsnect of a further
and rapid increase.
The Agricultural Department has main
tained in Europe an airent whose special
duty it is to introduce there the various
preparations of corn as articles of food,
and his work has leen very Buccessful.
The department has also sent skilled
veterinarians to Liverpool to examine,
in connection with the British veterina
rians, the live cattle from the United
States landed at that port, and the result
in connection with the sanitary methods
adopted at Lome, has been that we bear
no more about our cattle being infected
with pleuro-pnenmonia. A judicious
system of quarantine lines has prevented
the infection of Northern cattle w ith the
Texas fever.
The tariff bill of 1S;H) gives better pro
tection to farm products subject to for
eign competition than they ever had be
fore, and the home markets for such pro
ducts have been enlarged by the estab
ment of new industries and the develop
ment of others. We may confidently
submit to the intelligent and candid
judgment of the American farmer wheth
er in any corresponding period bo much
has been done to promote his interests(
and whether, in a continuance and ex
tension of these methods, there is not a
better prospect offered to him than in
the invitation of the Democratic party to
give our home market to foreign manu
facturers and to abandon the reciprocity
policy ; and better also than the radical
and untried methods of relief projKsed
by other parties which are soliciting his
support.
inE NICARAGUA CANAL.
I have often expressed my strong con
viction of the value of the Nicraua ship
canal to our commerce and to" our navy.
The project is not one of convenience but
of necessity. It is quite possible, I be
lieve, if the United Stales will support
the enterprise, to secure the speedy com
pletion of the canal without taxing the
Treasury for any direct contribution, and
at the same time to secure to the United
States that influence in iU managment
which is imperative.
OI B FOKEKiX POLICT.
It has been the purposeof the adminis
tration to make its foreign policy not a
matter of partisan politics, but of patriot
em and national honor; and I have very
great gratification in beinz able to state
that the Democratic members of the
Committees of Foreign Affairs responded
in a true American spirit. I have not
hesitated to consult freely with them
about the most delicate affairs, and here
frankly confess mv obligation for needed
cooperation.
They did not believa, as some seem to
believe, that to be a Democrat, one must
take the foreign sideof every international
question, if a Uepablican administration
js conducting the American fide. 1 do
not believe that a tame submission to
ineuit and outrage by any nation at the
hands of another can ever form the basis
of a lasting friendship the necessary
element of mutual respect will be want
ing. TtTAT t niLEAN ISCIDEST.
The Chilean incident, now so happily
and honorably adjusted, will, I do not
doubt, place oar relations with that brave
people upon a mare friendly basis than
ever before. This already appears in the
agreement since negotiated by Mr. Fgan
for the settlement by a coramissio n o
the long unsettled claims between the
two governments. The work of Mr. Egan
has been highly advantageous to the
United States. The confidence which I
refused to withdraw from him haa been
abundantly justified.
eelatjoss wrrn erRora.
In our relations with the great Euro
pean powers, the rights of the United
States and of our citizens have been in
sisted upon with firmness. The stxei gth
of our cause and not the strength of our
adversary has given tone to our corre
spondence. The Samoan question and
the Bering Sea question, which came
over from the preceding administration,
have been, the one settle-1 and the other
submitted to arbitration npon a fair
basis.
Never before, I think, in a like period
have so many important treaties and com
mercial agreements been concluded, and
never before, I am eure, have the honor
and influence, national and commercial,
of the United States been held in higher
estimation oa both hemispheres.
THE ;KAVD ARMY ENCAMPMENT.
The Union soldiers tnd sailors are now
veterans of time as well as of war. The
parallels cf age havearproached close to
the citadels of life and the end, for each,
of a brave and honorable struggle, is not
remote. Increasing infirmity and years
give the minor tones of sadness and
pathos in the mighty appeal of service
and suffering. The ear that does not
listen with sympathy and the heart that
does not respond with generosity are the
ear and heart of an alien and not of an
American.
Now soon agoin the surviving veterans
are to parade upon the great avenue of
the National Capitol, and every tribute
of honor and love should attend the I
march. A comrade in the column of the '
victor'a parade in l?C5t I am not less a
comrade now.
LA LESS HOBS.
- I have used every suitable occasion to
urge npon the people of all sections the
consideration that no good cause can be
promoted npon the lines of lawlessness.
Mobs do not discriminate and the punish
ment inflicted by them have no repressive
or salutary influence. On the contrary,
they beget revenges and perpetuate feuds.
It is especially the duty of the educated
and influential to see that the weak and
ignorant when accused of crime are fairly
tried before lawful tribunals. The moral
sentiment of the country should be
aroused and brought to bear for the sup
pression of these offenses against the law
and social order.
The necssity for a careful discrimina
tion among the emigrants seeking our
shores becomes every day more apparent
We do not want and should not receive
those who by reason of bad character or
habits are not wanted at home. Tbe in
dustrious and self-respecting, the lovers
of law and liberty should be discriminat
ed from the pauper, the criminal and
Anarchist, who come only to burden or
disturb our communities. Every effort
has been made to enforce the laws and
some convictions have been secured un
der the contract labor law.
TDK COl'STBT PROSrEKOfS,
The general condition of our country
is one of great prosperity. The blessing
of God has rested npon onr fields and
npon our people.
The annnal value of onr foreign com
merce has increased more than f 100,000,
000 over the average for the preceding
ten years and moie than $210,000,000
over 1S90 the last year unaffected by
the new tariff. Our exports in 18!2 ex
ceeded those of 1S30 by more than f 172,
000, 000, and the annual average for ten
yaars by $205,000,000. Our exports of
breadstuffs increased over those of 18fH)
more than $144,000,000; of provisions,
over $4,000,000, and of manufactures,
over $8,000,000. The merchandise balance
of trade in our favor in 1302 was $202,944,
342. Noother nation can match the commer
cial progress which those figures disclose.
Our compassion may well go out to those
whose party necessities and habits still
compel them to declare that our people
are oppressed and our trade restricted by
a protective tariff.
TIM CHICAGO PLATFORM.
It is not possible for me to refer even
in the briefest way to many of the topics
presented in the resolutions adopted by
the convention. Upon all that have not
been diseussed. I have before publicly
expressed my views. A change in the
personnel of a national administration is
of comparatively little moment. If those
exercising public functious are able,
honest, diligent and faithful, ethers
possessing all these qualities may be
found to take their places. But changes
in tbe laws and in administrative polices
are of great moment.
When public a flairs have been given a
direction and business has adjusted itself
to those lines, any sudden change in
volves a stoppage and new business
adjustments. If the changes of direction
are so radical as to bring the commercial
turn-table into use, the business changes
involved are not readjustments, but
reconstructions.
The Democratic party offers a program
of demolition. The protective policy to
which all business, even that of the im
porter, is now adjusted the reciprocity
policy, the new merchant marin e, are all
to be demolished not gradually, not
taken down, but blown up. To this
program, of destruction it has added one
constructive feature, the re-establishment
of State banks of issue.
The policy of the Republican party is
on the other hand distinctively a policy
of safe progression and development c f
new factories, new markets and new
ships. It will subject business to no
perilous changes, but offers attractive
opportunities for expansion upon familitr
lines.
Very respectfully yours,

A Man's Lit o Changed by a Fall.
A case recorded by Plutarch would
seem to support the theory that during
periods of protracted insensibility the
spiritof the sleeper, freed from the body,
wanders away to realms and scenes not
conceivable by the ordinary senses . A
man named Thespiu, he tells us, file
from a great height and was picked up
t all appearances dead. There were no
external wounds about him, but the phy
sicians were satisfied of the fact of the
decease.
Arrangements were made for his buri
al but on the third day Jter hia fall he
revived, much to the consternation of
his friends. In a short time it became
quite evident that the whole tenor of the
man's life had changed. Previously his
character was that of a reprobate and a
vicious man, but after insensibility be
ever followed after virtue. On being ask
ed the reason of the change, Thespius re
lated thtt during his long sleep hid spir
it had soared away to a strange land,
where it had joined a whole company of
other spirits.
His pact life was disclosed to him in
all its hideousness, and the glorious ca
pabilities whijh were before him were
revealed ia such a manner as to make
him ambitious of att aining them. in

A cold of unusual severity developed
into a diftjeuity decidedly catarrhal in
all its characteristics, threatening a re
turn of my old chronic malady, catarrh.
One bottle of Ely's Cream Balm com
pletely eradicated every symptom of that
painful and prevailing disorder. E. W
Warner, Rochester, X. Y.
When I began usinq Ely's Cream Balm
my catarrh was so bad I had headache
the whole time and discharged a large
amount of filthy matter. That haa al
most entirely disappeared and I have
not had headache si nee, J. II. Sonimers,
