Tlie side-show feature of the St. Louis Exposition is a great amusement
enterprise in itself, as it means an investment of more than $5,000,000. The
Pike is a thoroughfare 90 feet wide, paved with brick; in" the center of the
pavement is a row of ornamental posts, surmounted with decorative electric
lamps. The street is about a mile long, with picturesque and unique features
on cither side. There are about forty-five entertainment concessions. All of
the most striking features to be found on this great "Highway of Nations"
have been photographer by the official photographer, and these photo
graphs are reproduced in The Forest City series of World's Fair views, with
authentic and interesting descriptions by Secretary Stevens of the Exposi
tion. In its pages you will find Japanese, Chinese, Patagonians, Alaskans,
Esquimos, Cliff Dwellers, Lascars, Indians, Russians, Tyroleans, Swiss,
Moors, and representatives of many other quaint and curious tribes from
the furthermost parts of the earth. The regular price of these portfolios Is
25 cents each, but if you will clip one of the little coupons printed in our dis
play announcements from time to time, and bring or send it to this office
with ten cents, to pay the cost of handling, wrapping, addressing and mail
ing, any part issued will be mailed or delivered at once.

It was in prosecuting the conspirators who assassinated Alexander III
that Von Plehve first came into prominence. He was public prosecutor of
Warsaw in the seventies, and showed so much ability that he was sent up
to St. Petersburg. He soon became a
Alexander's assassination he devoted himself to stamping out nihilism. He
made the most perfect organization for the detection and punishment of
crime that Russia has ever known. And he never showed mercy. Nihilism
wilted before him, and in three years he has hunted down and punished 1
every member of the gigantic band that made czar-killing a possibility at
St. Petersburg.
It was during this campaign that he formed his close association with M.
Pobedonosteff, Procurator of the Holy Synod, the Czar's personal representa
tive in matters of religion and the government of the Russian church. These
two men laid their reactionary campaign together. They plied their trade
as extirpators of everything liberal and enlightening with the abilities of
trained statesmen and the devotion of fanatics. Old Russia became their
idol and their model. De Witte and his program for improvements and
education, his enlightened system of administration, became the bane of
their existence. Already the seeds qf discord between the two mighty

age and be happy all the time. Some
people probably read these instructions and may possibly try to live up to
them, but the main thing wrong is that they consist of hard and fast rules
which most people could not begin to live up to for any length of tim.e One
set of experts sets out to prove that the secret of health and happiness lies
in dietary matters and the weird menus which are sometimes printed are
the result of their cogitations. Others have the physical culture idea in such
bad form that the wonderful pictures' in the big Sunday supplements are to
be found. They depict young women and old women doing all sorts of circus
"stunts" in order to become or to remain beautiful. It is bad enough to
lose beauty, but if a middle aged matron has to preserve herself by donning
bloomers and doing the splits perhaps it would be well to let beauty go.
But the worst of these unauthorized advisers are those who lay down
a time for every particular thing that unfortunate readers must do. In all
of these cases the advisor seems to have based views on his or 'er own
case and to have remained blissfully unconscious of the fact that there are
others- What is the use of telling people who have to rush away to work
at an early hour that they must not hurry over their meals or in advising
the hard-worked head of an interesting but expensive family that "worry"
is the cause of unlinppiness?
It seems unfortunate, but the fact remains, that there are just as many
unhappy people in the world as there were before the Sunday papers started
to print rules for happiness, and there
fore the same papers began to give instructions on how to iron out wrinkles.
Perhaps there were more.

wonderful prize, and that Alaska is an
t"e same period, $1S,058,0SC. Hawaii's
foreign trade In these eleven months
was $3S,717; Alaska's was $2,001,276. In
Hawaii industrial conditions are almost
stagnant; in Alaska they are booming
all the time."
Just why two-thirds of Hawaii's com
merce should be "taken out" of the
reckoning does not appear. Even
though it is sugar it Is commerce. The
fact remains that tho federal govern
ment paid a big price for Alaska and
has got nothing out of it for years,
while Hawaii was acquired without tho
expenditure of anything and kept up
the immense commerce she had had for
years before tho acquisition. No nation
ever made a better bargain than the
United States by annexation of Hawaii,
considering the matter from a financial
point of view. A comparison of the
revenue per capita which Hawaii pays
into the national treasury with that of
Alaska places Alaska, as It places ev
ery other part of the country, far be
hind Hawaii.

The conditions in Colorado continue
to be most extraordinary. Here Is a
happening of July 29: "Cripple Creek,
Colo., July 29. Patrick McCarvel, ono
tf the men who were deported to Kan
sas by the military early in June, re
turned to Victoria, where he owns
property, Including a large hall and
business block valued at $25,000. When
McCarvel disembarked from the train
he was taken In charge by Major H. A.
Naylor, acting city marshal. McCarvel
was allowed to attend to some business
affairs and was then placed on board
the first outgoing train, with an order
that In future police protection would
not be afforded him should he again re
: jrn. McCarvel was originally deport
ed for openly expressing sympathy with
the miners' union and denouncing acts
of Governor Poabody and his military
subordinates." This seems more like
Russia than the United States. It Is to
be presumed that such measures are a
necessity to restore order In the strike
region. But It Is no wonder that Gov
ernor Peabody, who is responsible for
the drastic scheme, 1s the center of a
hot controversy.
