Try Respectfully, Harper Verret. It To the Settlers, BUT found it to go before congress -and secure its sanction for tli extension. A meeting of tlie directory tvn held Monday to iImimis the method of approaching congress, well as to consider whether the suggested d.ttenf closing is the best possible. Ferd. V.

Feck, chairman of the committee, has leen the chief mover in the new plan. He is enthusiastic over the possibilities of the scheme and believes it can be made profitable as well as of value to the people. According to Mr. Feck, ho beneves that the'eailv fall and winter months could be made as enjoyable tor visitors as air-of the summer months. The people who have been abroad and returned from their vacations; the school children with their Saturday holidays, a great number of Chicagoans and a great number of the residents of the territory adjacent to Chicago all these, Mr.

Feck believes, would be glad of the opportunity to attend time and again during November and December. In addition. Mr. Feck believes it good business policy to utilize the exposition plant as long as possible without destroying it. IIu argues that it will cost comparatively little more to carry on the fair for two extra mouth3 than it would to maintain it ith closed gates.

Figured on this basis, the receipts f.r November and December would be almost clear gain and would furnish that much more time for the final disposition of the buildings. The exhibitors who have been consulted at all say it would be to their advantage to remain through to the end so loug as it does not interfere with engagements they may have elsewhere. Last week as another week of state celebrations. Kansas and Uhio. Mexico.

Costa Iliea, Maryland, New Mexico and Texas, have each enjoyed their special day at the fair. Kansas, indeed, made a whole week of it, and thousands of sunflower state patriots came over to celebrate. A big celebration was that of Ohio Thurs day when Gov. McKiuley and regimen ts of the Ohio national guard came to Chicago to houor the dav. Attendance on that day aggregated nearly 225,000.

The leather men also celebrate on Tuesday and the railroad boys were given another chance on Saturday. The three caravels were formally presented by Capt. Concas of the Span ish navy to the United States government. The ceremony of transfer took place in the court of honor outside the administration building on a platform, at the ends of which drooped the flags of the two nations. On the raised seats were Spanish aud American nayal and army officers in uniform, President Palmer, of the National conitnision; Senor Dupuy de Lome, Spanish com missioner general; Capt.

Concas, who brought the caravels across the ocean; Capt Berry, of the United states navy exhibit, and W. JL McAdoo, assistant secretary of the navy. All these offi cial representatives spoke to the large assemblage of people, which included the national commissioners and lady managers. An exhibitor in the gallery of elec tricity building has a patent door mat which opens the door when anybody steps on the mat Some 3.000 or 4,000 people walk over the mat every day to see it work. The exhibitor savs he will make affidavit that 999 out of every 1,000 stop to say as they are leaving: ureat scheme for the man who can't find the keyhole." More over, the exhibitor says every one thinks his comment funny and original.

About the most interesting of the many pleasing exhibits in the Japanese section is that shown in raw silks. This material is exhibited in quaint, pretty packages, just at it is maile lor export. According to Imperial Com- missioner legima, one of the best au-' thorities in the empire, about CO pr I cent of the raw silk used in American factories comes from Japan. Its ex-I iloitatioi. at the fair has been delegated by the commissioner to the Kioto Exhibitors'1 association.

The iiesigns in clude beautiful illustrations of the Yu- zen designs patterns made after a process peculiar to Kioto and taking their name from a Buddhist piiest, who revived it and fostered the manufacture of silks after the people had bioi-t abandoned it. The peculiarity! ot the process may be inferred from the steps described by the association. As a preliminary the cloth is boiled and prepared for the artist Then the design is traced with a blue vegetable ink. The blue outline is covered with a rice starch, colored dark and red, and the reverse side of the cloth is dampened to make the starch adhere. Then all of the cloth surface, except that already touched by the figures, is covered with rice starch to prevent the dyes from spreading.

A dark red paste is added to the sketched outline, this is applied with a sharp-pointed bam boo stick or a paper tube with a hollow metal point working on much the same principle as the modern fountain pen. Then the parts to be dyed are covered with paste of powdered beans dissolved in water. Finally, as a last touch, the design is painted in with water colors. The cloth is steamed, which removes the starch, leaying the design as clear as an etching. When this process is finished the colors are fixed so firmly there is no possibility of fading or running.

The daintiest of all the silks shown are made for summer wear. They are almost as light as cobweb, with shimmering irridescence when held to the light that is the despair of the manufacturer who seeks to imitate with machinery. Then there is a collection of uncut velvets with etched designs in colors and woven patterns of peacock's feathers. A series ot window-panels made of dyed silk looks as though the work might have been done in oils, while another series, showing the fashion of Japanese women, is as fine as if it were meant for an art exhibition. The most pretentious of all the designs are two large patterns in brocades, resembling in effect the gobelin tapestries f.

Click of Atchison has V-on appointed pension aent at Topeka. Every American boy hopes to be president some day, and his chance is as rood as his neighbor's.

President Cleveland named his ne' daughter "Esther." Does the president imagine his daughter can ever be a king's wife? This is a big country, but it is getting full enough for men to scramble and light over allotments in every new strip of land vpened to settlement. Tuesday was the hundredth anniversary of the laying of the Corner stone of the capitol building at Washington, D. and it was appropriately celebrated by the president and members of 'ongress. This opening of the Cherokee strip will turn a large trade into Kansas cities. One undred thou -sand people will soon be plowing iind building liomes upon the rich acres of this now wild section.

Inter-Ocean. The Kansas City Journal, by an editorial item Tuesday, puts it this way: "The senator who makes a speech on oui side of the silver question is a levelheaded statesman and a splendid orator. Those who speak on the other side are selfish dem agogues and windbags." And another item in the same issue says "there are a good many mi llion people in this country who believe that the silver dollar circulates at par, not because it is "on a gold basis," but because the government makes it a legal tender and honors it at the custom houses. Whether this belief is right or wrong, these people will never be satisfied until their theory is substantiated or exploded oy actual experiment." The eastern part of Kansas is the only corn country this year that has had enough rain to fully mature ihe corn crop. The other corn states are suffering terribly for rain and it is estimated that corn crop for the years '92-3 will oid7 be 3,242 millions of bushels.

The average two years' crop for five years have been over 400 millions greater than for '92-3 and the crops of "92-3 were smaller than for any other two years in a decade, excepting 1886-7. May corn in Chicago, Clapp Co. predict, says the Topeka Capital, will not be below 00 cents. This will give Kansas farmers the best price in history for a crop of 130 million bushels. The crops of 1894 will come on the 'market to fill an absolute vacuum, at the rate the reserves have been disappearing, and an era of high prices will be on.

As an illustration of how crops are prospering in other states we quote the following from the St. Joseph Gazette: "Central Illinois hasn't had a rain for 100 j.ays. The late crops are burned up, the pasture lands are bare, and water is very scarce, so much so that in Champaign they have called upon the public schools to use as economically as possible, and cattle are being driven long distances to find water." World's Fair Doings, Regular Correspondence. There is very Beriou9 talk of prolonging theOilumbian exposition to Jan.l it least. The heavy receipts of ihe past few weefcs and the sudden in- crease of the regular aauy crowu nas civen tlie directors encouragement to ustttv the serious consideration ot the I KtVA proet.

Watermelons contain about ninety-five per cent of the purest water and a trace of the purest sugar, aud nothing has yet been discovered that furnishes so perfect and speed- a cure for summer complaint as watermelon.

The juice of the watermelon lias long been known among Southern girls a beauti-fier of the complexion. It is said that after a long drive or summer outing few things are more soothing to the face and hands then the water from both pulp aud rind. The first, crushed by dainty hands and rubbed on the face, takes off the sunburn, while the application of the cool white pulp next to the red meat removes the stickings aud giyes a softness to skin of the melon bather that can be obtained by nothing else. This is nature's own cosmetic. All we charge for the above medical advise is a few sample pack ages from those who may be fortunate enough to raise a supply of this valuable remedv.
