An Object-Lesson in Wealth.
Parisians had heard of the late Jay
Gould and his high-piled millions
of money, but for the past two years
they have beet receiving a special
object-lesson on the power of wealth
in new-world hands, iii the effort of
t.: ..l I...... ti n ,ll. ...... .1,. f w
elhine. to produce in Paris the palace
of the Grand Trianon, as built by
the French KingsatVarsailles more
than two centuries ago. Three
quarters of an acre of land was
I (ought :it the intersection of the
Avenue tin Bois de Boulogne and
the Avenue Malakoffj at the expense
of close to a million of dollars, this
being the most costly residential site
in Paris. Public interest has been
made keen by the announcement
that while the exterior would hold
true to the Fourteenth century, the
interior was to be a blending of the
Fourteenth and Fifteenth periods, if
the Gould millions and the cunning
of the French architects could com
pass this nnique desire. The revival
of two historic jieriods in French
architectural history was so remark
able an undertaking that from its
beginning the progress of this house
has been followed with such a wide
interest as has lieen given to few
purely private building projects. In
May the family was occupying the
central portion, but the interior de
coration of the two wings probably
cannot lie completed in less than two
years more. When it became known
such a mattofl was to 1m? attempted
many of the French said it would
take twenty years to build and fur
nish with art treasures; but Western
enterprise and local ingenuity pro
mise its completion in a fifth of the
time. The property will then have
cost thirty millions of francs, or six
millions of dollars. Roth theCount
and Countess are collectors of rare
art works and bric-a-brac, and in a
single year,it is said, they expended a
mil lion of dollars in purchases for
their new residence. When the mat
ter of ceilings was being arranged for
the Castellanes went to Italy and
sought the splendid iMlace of Veraa.
They 'did not waut tire palace, but
coveted the eleven ceilingsit contain
ed from the brush of Tiepolo, and
these could be secured only by the
purchase of the old structure.

Editorial Correspondence.
Lincoln, Neb., Aug. 2r, '99.
We arrived m tms c'l' Wednes
day afternoon at 4:20, having made
brief stops in Chicago and Omaha.
Our trip west was an uneventful
one, but it will no doubt intcrestthe
readers oi the Post to note our ob
servations. We left home Monday, Aug. 21st,
at 10:151 in an atmosphere of a very
high temperature. There was no
relief untii we reached the top of
the Allegheny Mountains. At Cres
sonand the beautiful horseshoe bend
we were visited by a very welcome
shower. It seems the Pennsylvania
showers this year are all local. Re
tween Altoona and Pittsburg, we
observed no less than six changes re
presenting rain and no rain for that
afternoon.
At Pittsburg we bid adieu to
Mrs. H. W.Smith and her daughter,
Alice, who went to their home at
New Kensington. Here we boarded
a train for Chicago on the Pittsburg,
Fort Wayne and Chicago Railway.
AN UNEXPECTED visit TO CANTON.
When bedtime approached, we iu
quired for a sleeping car and we
were informed that owing to the
large amount of mail and heavy
traffic, the train was cut into two
sections and that all the sleeping
ears were in the second section, This
was by no means pleasant news for
us, but having wired to the conduct
or of the second section, we learned
that there would lie a lierth at our
disposal. The next stop whs at
Canton, Ohio, the home of President
McKinlev. Here we got of! antl
waited 16 minutes for the arrival of
the second section the Pullman
sleepers. Hence we had an unex
pected visit to the home of the
honored president of the United
States.
A VISIT TO CHICAGO.
We awoke the next morning at
Valparaiso, lnd. We managed to
see about 35 miles of Indiana and
Illinoisand wem compelled tobeliove
that land was not very precious in
that reirion. A remarkable differ
ence, however, was observed in an
other respect. Before leaving the
state of Pennsylvania the old fami
liar hills and mountains were the
familiar figures, but in this sketch
of country, not only the mountains
were missing, but even the hills, the
land seemed to lie as level as the great
oceans that surround our continent.
We finally reached Chicago and after
having reached the limits, it requir
ed almost an hour's ride on one of
the Pennsylvania's fastest trains to
reach the Union Depot. Chicago is
a large city, but it is like au over
grown Iwy with his first pair of
(Wilts on. He does not know how
to conduct himself. Chicago is call
ed the "Windy City" anil the name
seems appropriately applied. When
near Lake Michigan, there is a most
welcome breeze during the hottest
weather and makes that part of the
city, the most desirable of cities in
summer time. W e are told, how
ever, by a native of Illinois now
siding in Nebraska that Chicago was
called the "Windv City" on account
of their bragging qualities. I must
confess that my expectations of the
great city of Chicago were far from
realized. It showed no signs of be
ing a busy city on their busiest
streets. Even our own city of
Brotherly Love on Market, Chestnut
or Arch streets represents more ac
tivity at any time of the day than
we were able to sec during our stay
in Chicago. We visited Lincoln
Park, a Mecca for pleasure seekers
worthy ot a visit.
THE TRIP TO OMAHA.
At 0:15, Tuesday evening, we
boarded the fast train on theChicago,
Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway
bound for Omaha, having tempor
arily abandoned our plans to stop at
Des Moine.-, Iowa. Haviugsecured
tickets for the sleeping car, we were
put on a train fitted up with all the
beauty and grandeur of a modern
railroad train. Seated in a car sur
rounded with all the pomp and lux
uriance of the finest parlor, where
in ease and elegance we beheld the
passing landscapes of the state of
Illinois. It whs indeed a revelation
to behold a stretch of land for 35
miles and not see a field where there
was an elevation exceeding ten feet

Occasionally one sees some lieantilul

presence of sonic Eastern thrift.
There is plenty ot energy in the
West and when properly directed,
shows a nice balance on the credit

At 8 o'clock we reached the Mis

landed in Omaha, Neb.
OMAHA WOHTII VISITING.
At Omaha and Council Blufts we
observed some large iron frame tow
ers shape! like a wind pump frame,
but 200 to 300 feet high and on the
top were displayed S to 10 large arc
electric lights for the purpose of il
luminating the city. Thjs is a new
theory in street lighting, but one that
seems to be a perfect , success. We
Stopped at Omaha to see some friends,
but strolling about the city, we were
deeply impressed with the contrast
of Omaha and Chicago. Omaha is
much cleaner, so much better re
gulate, and more nicely laid out
that our attachment for the Nebraska
city was very strong at first sight.
Pennsylvanians are favorites at Oma
ha anl we naturally have a warm
spit for Omaha. The Tenth Penn
sylvania lioys will be in Omaha on
Saturday and nothing in that great
city will be too good for our own
dear fighting lnjy.s. of the famous
Tenth.
The gates of Omaha's great fair
will be thrown open to the boys, the
citizens will tender to "our boys"
one of the grandest receptions that
one state can tender to the sons of a
sister state. Excursion trains will
be run for a radius of 50 miles to
Omaha and "our lioys" will be the
heroes of the hour. The great Am
erican Kxposition now going on at
Omaha, we were told before reach
ing Nebraska, tlid not amount to
re-in"""", but to our surprise we learn
cu mat mis was a great mistake.
The exposition is represented by
those who saw it to be grander and
more magnificent in electrical dis
plays and illuminatioits than the re
sults of the keenest genius whose
product was displayed at the great
World's Fair at Chicago. As Lin
coln is only 55 miles from Omaha,
we expect to Spend a day or two at
the Exposition lx;fore we return
home.
At Omaha we were introducfd to
a representative of the C. B. and Q.
Railroad who extended us the useot
their road from Omaha to Denver,
a place we propose to visit before re
turning to Pennsylvania.
THE TKIP TO LINCOLN
At 2:45 Wednesday afternoon we
boarded the Rurlington train for
Lincoln, the capital of Nebraska.
But before leaving Omaha, I must
refer to the grandest depot I have
ever seen in all my travels. It is
the C. 1?. it Q. depot at Omaha

year Nebraska had the largest crop
of corn, ft leads al! other states.
We pasted fields ot corn that extend
ed as lar as the eye could reach. 1
am told that a farmer plants an en
tire section of 640 acres in corn.
This, land produces heavy crops of
corn, a stalk bearing two and three
ears of corn much larger than is
grown in Pennsylvania. I cut the
following from the Xebraxka SUUr
JourMtf: "The corn crop this year
in Nebraska is so large that all the
lumber in the state wouldn't make
cribs enough with those already con
structed to shelter it all." 1 laugh
ed when I read it ami accepted it as
a huge joke. I am, however, assur
ed that there is a great deal of truth
in the statement. Ot course, lumber
is iiuMrted to make cribs and the
balance of corn is piled up in the
fields and hauled to the markets
whenever the price is acceptable.
This statement will seem "fishy" to
a Pennsylvania farmer, because if
