Fair Will be Held in 1909.
Owing to a slight rumor that the
Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition is
going to be postponed caused by the
recent financial lluny, the executive '
committee of the 1000 fair has passed
the following resolution: "It is the
unanimous sense of the members of^
the executive committee that the Ala^- '
ka-Yukon-PaciHc Exposition be held
at the place and time hitherto planned
?Seattle, U. S. A., from June 1 to
October 13, 1000. '
The contract for another large ex
hibit palace, tho Agriculture building,
has been let for ?81,830. Six of tho
main buildings will soon be well under
way. The manufactures building is
progressing rapidly. t
The executive committee announces
I bat there is plenty of money on hand
with which to carry on the work and
that money for stock is coming in all
the time.
Word received from Washington, D.
C., from Vice President John II. Mc
GravsT, Director of Exploitation Henry
E. Eeed, indicates that Congress is
looking with favor on the exposition.
The appropriation hill will soon come r\
up for consideration. The government
has asked for more ground space than
was originally alloted to it.
The management of the Exposition
has secured the services of Col. Ilenry
E. Dosch, of Portland, Oregon, as
director of the division of exhibits.
The exhibits department is being
organized and prospective exhibitors
can now receive information in regard
to space by applying to Col. Dosch.
Already many large firms throughout
the country have applied for space.
Col. Dosch represented the State of
Oregon as commissioner at New
Orleans, Chicago, Omaha, Buffalo,
Charlestown and at the Fifth Inter
national Exhibition held at Osaka,
Japan, in 10u.">, he was commissioner
from tho State of Oregon and Lewis
and Clark Exposition. The directors
of the Japanese exposition recognized
Col. DOsch's ability as an "exposition
ist," and placed him in charge of all
foreign exhibits. His services were
recognized by tho emperor of Japan,
who decorated him with the medal of
the chevalier of the sacred treasure.
Col. Dosch was also given a diploma of
merit for bis services at tlj? Osaka
Exposition. It bears the signature of
the Mikado aud the royal seal. Col.
Dosch was also commissioner general
to the Louisaua Purchase Exposition
for the Lewis and Clark fair.
Both Dutch. ?;<
Faulenzer Fritz, with his mouth wide
open, stood looking at the animals iu a
meuagerie. "Want a job?" said the
manager to Fritz, "l*a,M answered
Fritz. "All riyht, our tiger died a
month ago and we want you to fix ufjj ^
iu his skin and take his place." The
trouble begun when tho attendant
wanted to put Fritz in the cage with1*
the lion. "Dormer and Blitzen" said
Fritz, mein arme frau uud der kleine
Fritz!" "Get iu there Bismark," yelled
the keeper in a loud Irish brogue "or I
thrust this spear through you." So>
poor Fritz was hustled iuto the cage
with the lion and when he saw the
lion's big ferocious eyes fixed upon
him Fritz uttered a pitiful wail and
begun to pray iu regular Dutch, "Got
mit-uns, etc." "Iloch dcr Kaiser," zwei
mal, whispered the king of beasts.
There was ouce a mule in a large
field that refused to bo caught by its
owner. Round and round the field the
mule galloped. The owner tore along
behind, red and angry, swinging a
halfer in his hand and swearing pas
sionately. The mule would let him
draw near enough to throw the halter
over his head; then it would kick up
its legs merrily and run away like the
wind. A boy, his face wreathed in
smiles, watched the unequal chase for
an hour or so. Then he entered the
field and said:
"I'll tell you how to catch that mule,
mister, if you give me a nickel."
"All right," panted the man; "here's '<
your nickefl. Now tell me."
"Get behind that thick hedge over
there,' said the boy, 'and make a noise
like a carrott."
Lilly. ? "Oh, I wish to goodness the
Lord had made me a man."
Milly.? "Maybe He has, but you
haven't found hini yet."
Hosey.? "What did you say when he
asked your age?"
Posey._-"l told him the truth."
Rosey. ? "What was that?"
Posey .?"That it was none of his
business."
She (showing him a photo of herself
as a baby on her mother's arm) ? Look,
this is me, eighteen years ago.
He? .Really and who is tha baby on
^our arm?? Meggendorfer Blatter.
