Wednesday morning we first went
down to the Mecca and received our
final "courtesies" (good for ten days).
The Mecca has one peculiar feature,
which the unwary stranger in hasty
search of an important and necessary
adjunct to all hotels "tho' we never
mention it" is very apt to have forci
bly impressed upon his cranium. The
ceiling ayont the booblack's room
through which you hastily seek
entrance into the convenience is very
low, and traversed with metal pipes.
These make themselves evident to the
traveler's skull, an he be not the more
careful. Just why in a city of high
buildings of which the Mecca is one
there should be such anachronism, we
let the gentle reader ponder for himself.
While at the hotel we learned that
the "grand banquet" to the Association,
which had been advertised to take place
this day, had anticipated its set date
twenty-four hours, and was now a
thing of the past. With the memory
of another "banquet" gorging our
soul, we drew a breath of relief on our
own behalf and heaved a sigh of regret
for the Association. Then we boarded
the State street cable and, by way of
the Kenneth, where the feminine con
tingent was taken up, proceeded to the
Fair. We decided to take in the sev
eral State buildings this morning, and
proceeded at once to carry out the
work in hand.
The Day State building was first
visited. Various artcles of ancient
date are here exhibited; old tables,
uncomfortable-looking chairs, and a
colonial wardrobe or two, take the
mind back to the days of Indian mas
sacres, armed worship, steeple-crowned
hats and perforated Quaker tongues.
In glass cases about the rooms are
shown ancient legal documents, title
deeds, newspapers, etc. The most
noted of these is the original "informa
tion" against a wicked citizen charging
her with the practice of witchcraft
"against the peace and dignity of the
Commonwealth," upon which present
ment she was afterward tried, convict
ed and executp&V We read the docu
ment carefully, and found that the
legal verbiage of that day could hold a
pretty trood candle to the linerual in
tricacy of the profession of to-day: an
other proof that in many things the
sires wore worthy progenitors of thei
sons, and up to snuff in making a plain
statement obscure to the understanding
of the laity.
Vermont, Connecticut and New
Hampshire were visited, each in turn
and many objects of antiquity and in
terest inspected. Finally, we entered
the Mount Vernon building, an exact
eproduction of Washington's old home.
and Virginia's contingent to the great
Fair. It is filled with articles of "ye
olden time," of special interest to those
who love to poke anions; the ashes of
the dead past. With reverence we
looked upon objects at one time familiar
to him who was "first in war, first in
peace," and ever will be "first in the
hearts of his countrymen." A harp
sichord, once the property of Martha
Custis, is of the collection. Its strings
are hushed and tho fair hand that once
compelled them into sweet sounds are
dust; but in their presence are born of
love and reverence sweeter harmony
than ever waked the silence of old
Vernon's sacred halls.
This morning we are to meet by ap
pointment, at 11 o'clock, one of Iron
ton's "boys" in the happy days gone
by, and his better half Mr. and Mrs.
F. Scoville. As the hour now closely
approaches we repair to the Court of
Honor, and strictly on time we grasp
Frank's extended hand in cordial em
brace and renew the acquaintance of
her whom we had known as schoolgirl,
bride and matron. For a time even the
Fair was forgotten in question and re
sponse concerning friends and ac
quaintance, and in recalling the scenes
and incidents of the time "when we
were boys together " All this time
our ears were filled and our souls were
thrilled with sweet strains from
Thomas' famous orchestra, near by,
and realism winged its darkened flight
to other scenes.
Our party, now of eight, then cross
ed over to the Mines and Mining Build
ing. Our entrance was marked by an
agreeable sunrise, for almost the first

According to a dispatch from Leba

will pay no attention to the protest
against making religious services a
part of the exercises of the institute.
But why not? It is true that the
protest comes from a Catholic, but it
is just as possible for a Catholic to be
right occasionally as it is for the rest
of us. Besides, Catholic tax payers
who are citizens of Missouri have just
as many rights in the State as the rest
of us.
