PREPARING FOR
THE DEDICATION
today will be given to the dedica
tory ceremonies of what promises to
bo the greatest of all fairs, and at
which a cardinal will offer the de
dicatory prayer, and the President of
the United States will deliver the
opening address.
These services are but preparatory,
tor the fair—the Louisiana Purchase
Exposition —will not open until this
time next year, aud there will be
ample foretaste of what is in store for
us.
St. Louis is fortunate in the favor
ing and distinguished circumstances
under which its enterprise will have
its oftioial emergence. The country
is looking towards the hanks of the
Mississippi. Thither many of its Gov
ernors with their escorts of national
guardsmen are bound ; thither regular
soldiers and general officers aud ships
of the navy have already gone. Strang
ers by the hundreds of thousands are
expected to be at the fair grounds to
day. The picturesque and inevitably
spectacular tour of the President
through the Northwest may be con
sidered as merely a prologue to the de
dication. The public interest that
followed him into the Yellowstone is
trailing on behind him as he moves to
ward St. Louis.
ST. LOUIS, April 29.—The final
day before the dedication ceremonies
shows the World's Fair city 111 a state
of bustle and hurry. On every street
decorators are working like mad. The
streets are packed with visitors and
■pecial trains are drawing thousands
more into the Union station every
hour.
The World's Fair resembles a mili
tary camp. Miles upon miles of white
tents stretched out over hills and dowu
dales,glistening in the morning light.
Men in blue, iu khaki aud in olive
green, march here and there about
their duties. Great siege guns stand
grim and forbidding in the shadow of
the Industries building, their sentries
like pygmies beneath their frowning
mouths. Special trains are unloading
regiment after regiment. At 10 o'clock
this morning 14,000 soldiers were en
camped aud 10,000 more will have
been added to the tented city before
midnight.
St. Louis is filled with government
officials.
The arrivals began iu earnest early
this morning. All regular trains are
literally packed and they are followed
by exprses train after express train, i
Bunting of red, white and blue aud j
yellow, the exposition colors, make j
the decorations.
Governors aud their staffs and State
boards of World's Fair commissioners
are coming in every hour
President Roosevelt and party will
arrive at 1 46 today on a special train.
He will be driven to the Good Roads
convention, where he will make a
speech.
After the exercises at the uuiversity
President Roosevelt will be driven to
the home of President David Francis,
and 111 the evening lie will address the
Frauz Segil Monument Association.
Tomorrow will be an equally stren
uous day for the President. Mayor
Wells will extend to him the freedom
of the city at the St. Louis Club at 10
a. in.and at 1.-30 he will lead the de
dication parade for the fair grounds.
There the parade will pass 111 review
before him.
President Roosevelt and other dis
tinguished visitors will then eat
luncheon and at 2 :15 p. 111. the presi
dent will formally dedicate the Louis
iana Purchase Exposition. Then will
come dinner in the Hall ol Congress
aud ttie tire works display on the Ex
position grounds. At 10:30 p. m the
Presidential special will depart for
Kansas City.
The President will witness 111 the
Liberal Arts building, where the de
dication ceremonies are conducted,the
largest audience ev« r assembled under
oue roof iu the history ot America
Seventeen thousand chairs have been
placed in the parquette -section and
when the raised sections, or amphi
theatre, on which there are several
thousand benches, are filled, the exact
seating capacity w ill be 08,660. Tests

By common consent Count Leo
Tolstoi is cue ul the greatest thinkers
and social reformers that the* world
has ever produced.
He wn< born at Vasnaya Polayna.in
the Krapiviin-ki district of the Gov
ernment ot J"ula,Russia. September 9,
1828. His father, Count Nikolai
Ilyitch, served in the campaign of
1812. His mother was a Princess Vol
konskaya, of a Montenegrin family.
In youth In' was given the advan
tage of a complete and finished educa
tion, graduating from the University
of Kazan at the age of eighteen He
took part in the Crimean War, and
was the author of the famous "Sevas
topol, " which cave him rank among
thii famous literary lights of St.
Petersburg.
The dissipated life at the capital,
however soon palled upon him, and
was the primaiy cause of his becom
ing interested in education and social
reforms not only hi Russia, but in
other countries All through his
novels are scattered the "idea germs"
which finally developed into his elab
orate system of life and reforms.
The keynote of all his books in
volves the abolition of courts, armies,
navies and wars, as well as of prison
ers aud punishments.
i
Melodrama will hold the boards at
the Opera House on Saturday night
when Edward Weitzel's New York
production if "The Tide of l.ife"
will be given, with all its original
effects and scenery. The production
in this city will be exactly as it was
in New York, not a detail being omit
ted. The critics ol the metropolis all
agreed that "The Tide of Life" was
one of the most striking melodramas
that has been seen in this city for
years, and the public endorse the
opinions of the critics by packing the
house at evi rv performance. The old
fashioned "effects" in melodrama
have been avoided in this one, and the
audience sees something that has
never hern thought of before. At the
end of the fourth act, lor instance, a
ra=cal jumps from the upper window
of a big office building, and clutches
at a wire in his descent. Instantly
there bursts forth, from his bauds,
arms and apparently every other part
of his body, blue tiames and electric
sparks. He is holding, in a death
clutch, a heavily charged electric
wire, which will not release him until
the curtain lias fallen The s- nsation
created by this si ene is simply in
describable.
SEVERE ATTACK OT GRIP.

When 1 hai an attack of grip last

Shortsville, N. Y. "This is the honest
truth. lat all tini"- kept from cough
ing myself to pieces by taking a tea
spoonful of this remedy and when the
coughing spell would come on at night
1 would take a dose and ir seemed
that in the briefest interval the cough
would pass oIT aud I would goto
sleep perfectly free from cough and
its accompanying pains To say that
the remedy acted a> a most agreeable
surprise is putting it very mildly. 1
had no idea that ir would or could
knock out the grip, simply because 1
had never tried it for such a purpose,
but it did, and ir seemtd with the
second attack of coughing the remedy
caused it to not only be of less dura

MANY fIINERS OWN
THEIR OWN HOnES
Chief James M. Clark, of the Bu
reau of Industrial Statistics, Harris
bnrg, has completed some very inter
esting comparative statistics concern
ing the work of the anthracite and
bituminous miners during the 173
days immediately preceeding the great
coal strike ol' last summer.
"Approximately twenty to twenty
five per cent, of the anthracite u iners
own their own homes," says Captain
Clark, "and homes are practically
owned by oue-eighth of the bitumi
nous miners."
During the ten months ending Juue
30, 1902, the figures show that an av
erage of 35,842 anthracite miners were
employed with average earnings of
#195.97. or $2.83 a day, less powder
and other mine supplies.
Fifty eight thousand five hundred
and ninety two other inside people,
including miners' laborers, had 173
days of employment and average earn
ings of $363.47, or #2.10 a day.
Forty seven thousand three hundred
aud forty-six outside people were em
ployed 177 days with average earnings
of $306.87, or $1.73 a day. Practically
one-half of these outside people were
slate-pickers, boys under 15, with a
range of fifty cents to sl.lO a day.
The total employment in the anthra
cite field for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1902, was 141,730, exclusive
of washeries.
The production tor that time was
43,807,802 tons and the t. o b. value
$93,680,586, or an average of $2.11 per
ton.
In the bituminous field 79.121 miners
were employed for 232 days with aver
age earnings of $503.87,0r $2.16 a day ;
18,853 other inside people were em
ployed for 243 days with average earn
ings of $546.67, or $2.24 a day, and
13,253 outside people were employed
for 243 days with average earnings of
$153.93, or #1.67 a day.a total employ
ment iu the bituminous field of 11,229.
The production in this field was 93,-
174,295 tons, and the to. b. value
#93, 725,939, or $1.06 per tou
It will be observed that the bitu
minous miners averaged five tons a day,
while the anthracite miners averaged
seven tons per day.
The very marked difference in con
ditions surrounding these two fields is
shown by the large increase of other
employment than those classified un
der the head of miners in the anthra
cite from that of the bituminous mines
as against 35,842 miners, while iu the
bituminous field only 18,853 inside peo
ple were employed as against 79,121
miners. A more marked difference is
found in the relative proportions of
the outside people 111 the anthracite
fie1d.47,346 being employed as relative
to the 35,842 miners,while 111 the bitu
minous field there weie only 13,225
outside people as relative to 79,121
miners

Mrs. Rick's Monologue Play.
Can you imagine one person play
ing an entire play,and a play contain
ing seven acts at I hat - This is really
what Mrs. Hick does, only that you
will forget there is only out* actor
The acts are called tableaux, and
play from ten to twenty minutes each.
Tableau one, opens in the nursery
of the Livingston family. Emily, the
pet, the darling, is but I<J years of age
and playing yet with her (lolls. Sev
eral serious interruptions break the
harmony and the act ends iu a social
catastrophe.
The second tableau,occurs five years
later, and Emily Livingstou is a stu
dent at Vassar. She has absorlied the
whole "New Woman" idea; rides
astride, golf- and explodes her radi
cal fancies on all who come in con
tact with her, with all the gusto be
fitting a girl of the 2<)th century who
imagines that wisdom will die with
her. Through it all, however, one
easily detects the reai woman that
underlies all these masculine foibles
and the audience is at last delighted
when an accident causes the 1111-k to
drop.
Tableau three, a lew years later,
and the scene is a ball room Emily
is making her how to society this even
ing,and wondrous is the change I lie
"New Woman ' 1- 110 more, as she is
understood. So, this is a creature,all
smiles, daintily supercilious perhaps,
but preferable much preferable—to
the Vassar girl. Alas! for the girl
would not stoop to marry! She chang
es her mind that very night!
And so each tableau brings its suc
ceeding change, even as the years do
111 real life, each tableau holding its
[relation to the last, yet acting it- own
entire story.

Danger of Colds and Grip.
The greatest danger from cold and
griy is thare resulting in pneumonia. If
reasonable fare is used, however, and
Chamberlain 's Cough Remedy taken.all
danger will be avoided. Among the
tens of thousands who have used this
remedy for these diseases we have yet
to learn of a single case having resulted
in pneumonia,which shows conclusively
that it is a certain preventive of that
dangerous disease. It will cure a cold
or an attack of the grip in less time
than any other other treatment. It is
pleasant and safe to take. For sale by

THE WHEAT
LOOKS BAD
The wheat crop, which seamed ho
promising a month ago, has received
quite a setback as a result of the cold
and unfavorable Weather of April and
the indications are, speaking at least
for this section, that at many places
the crop will little more than half a
one.
The fine growing weather of March
hurried the wheat along at a rapid !
rate. During April there were at j
least three weeks when the cloudy j
weather, law winds aud occasionally
freezing temperature held back vegeta
tion in all forms.
The wheat was no exception; it
stopped growing and except at spots
where the land is exceedingly fertile '
and sheltered it assumed a sickly yel
lowisii appearance which is not at all
promising. No one can take a drive
over the country without noticing this
peculiarity of the wheat fields.
Several farmers were interviewed
yesterday and none seemed very hope

For many years It has been supposed that
Catarrh of the Stomach caused indigestion

opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Ro

the juices of natural digestion. This Is
called Catarrh of the Stomach.
