ROS: SELL, Commissioners, D.C. myl-6t THE WORLD'S FAIR ON SUNDAY. President Higginbotham Says That It Will Be Closed. Notwithstanding the statement telegraphed to Tux Stan yesterday that the Columbian ex- position would be open Sunday it iv now stated that Jackson Park and all the buildings of the world’s fair will be closed to visitors, Presi- dent Higginbotham authorized the announce- ment that the fair would not be open. “Orders to open the exposition on Sunday,” he said, “have not been issued, and until they are the gates will not be opened on that day.” This formal announcement follows the action of the national commission, which yesterday unanimously rejected the petition against the Eibveck resolution providing for the Sunday opening of the gates. Mr. Hundley of Alabama introduced a reso- lution that when the commission adjourns it Le to meet on july 1. This was adopted. Then the Sunday opening question was callod up by Commissioner Massey. Chairman St. Chair of the judiciary committee read the re- port, which stated that there was a standing tule in force providing for the closing of the exposition on the first day of the week, and the committee pees unanimously against the adoption of the Eiboeck resolution unless the rule was modified by competent authority. A long debate followed. Just before the vote was taken three tele- grams to President Palmer from Cincinnati were read asking the commission to enjoin Sun- day closing. The messages were from. the Young Men's Christian Association, the Chris- tian Endeavor-Society and another Sabbatarian society of that city. The report was then adopted and Sunday closing is a fixed fact un- Jess some action is taken at the next meeting ot the commission. Before adjourning sine die yesterday after- noon the board of lady managers put itself on record as in favor of an open Sunday by an almost unanimous vote. At the opening of the session Miss Cunningham of South Carolina arose and addressed the board. She said that at Thursday's session Mra. John A. Logan had, without warrant, assailed her reputation as a member of the bourd and impugned her motives. ‘She stamped her foot and exclaimed that she aid not propose to per it the strictures made by Mra, Logan to go unheeded. ‘Miss Cunningham's remarks created some confusion, which was not allayed until Mrs. Logan arose and disclaimed any purpose to offend the representative from South Carolina. The restaurants on the grounds which have been charging extortionate prices for some time were severely sat upon by the council of administration. ‘The council adopted a resolu- tion bringing the restaurant keepers under the council's nore immediats charge.

From the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette ‘There isa little chap up on Price Hill who will make trouble in religious circles somo of these days if he isnot systematically trained in “the way he shonld go.” He was over at his grandfather's for dinner yesterday, and sat buckled in the old high chair ready for the onslaught. His grandfather, a reverent old gentleman, and one of the ‘worthiest of the world, bent his snowy head and began his usual lengthy grace. Sammy never relishes those famous graceq at best, and when, just in the middle of this extra long one for company, the old gentleman paused deliberately and yawned several tedious times, the infant could stand it no longer. | TLeanmg over, he tapped him on the arm with his big spoon and whis- pered energetically: “Det a move, dranpa—det a move for dracions sake—I’s hungy as a bear!” Grandpa “got a mov. ———+e2+—____ A Matter of Propriety.

When she got her breath again she flew to the managing editor's office, clutching the note in her trem- bling fingers. The door was closed and locked, “Where is Mr. Wil- son?” she demanded of Moses, the office boy. “Dunno. He lef’ right suddin dis yeah mornin’. Mebbe so de city ed't'r he knows,” was the exasperating response. Miss Roma had not often invaded that functionary’s domain. He had no use for a woman in a newspaper office, consequently women reporters had small use for him. “Mr. Stanton, do you know Mr. Wilson's whereabouts?” ‘She ad bearded the lion in his den and still lived. “Mr. Wilson was called suddenly to Las Vegas and left at 8:30.” responded the city editor, without looking up. ‘Miss Roma felt herself appronching a state of utter paralyzation, but managed to hold out the slip of paper on which Mr. Wilson's well- known fist danced ahornpipe. “Do you know anything about this order? ‘Mr. Stanton looked up m mild surpri even that was a concession on his part. re Wilson said that he would leave orders for some one to go to Gallup to investigate the truth of this morning's dispatches, but I think there has been a blunder. ‘This note wax never intended for you, I shall take the liberty of countermanding — “Pardon me, you will do no such thing.” broke in Mist Itoma hotly. “In the first place Tam not subject to your orders. In the second place Lean handle en Indian scrimmage quite as intelligently as you can do a reception.” ‘A HOT THAT TOLD, That shot told. In a moment of self abnega- tion Mr, Stanton had reported a swell function at the house of a friend, disdaining Miss Roma's proffered assistance. He fixed the women out in “corset bouquets.” Those so maligned had cut him dead, and the office had guyed him unmercifully.’ Miss Roma's ill- timed remarks made him furious. “You'll make a dead failare of it,” he re- torted angrily. “Then we will call it even,” said the plucky little woman as «he turned to the cashier's desk. “Here, Mr. Selby,” and she poked the order through the window. ‘On the strength of that I shall want transportation over the A. andP. and some expense morey.

He had theories re- garding woman's ability entirely at varian with those of his city editor, and to keep peace in the Miner office had been obliged to make Mixs Roma amenable to his orders only. She had proved herself efficient, accurate apd com- petent in city work from’ drawing room to criminal court, but, accustomed though she was to his erratic vagaries, she was unprepared for her last “assignment.” “I don't know his motive,” she muttered mentally asthe disposed of her “grip” and made herself as comfortable as possible for the tedious twelve hours’ trip, “but I have an idea he thonght I'd wilt.

She unlocked her grip and from among the handkerchiefs, hand glass and hair pins ex: tracted her pistols—two Smith & Wesson's, 22 caliber. They were in prime condition. Roma was not at all belligerent, but the tim might come when she would need them in her business and she felt it quite safe to go loaded forbear, ven though she trapped nothing but a coyote. She dropped one in each pocket of her cloth ulster and drawing the Daily Miner from her shawl strap began to hunt for the “special” which had mixed itself up with her destiny.

M., Sept. 21.—In a drunken row at this place this evening three railroad hands were wounded and two Navajoes and their ponies kilied. The Indians had filled up on whisky sold them contrary to law by the saloon men in the wake of the front boarding train. On demanding more it was refnsed them, asthe saloon men were already fright- ened at the quarrelsome, ugly disposition mani- fested by the redskins. The rofusal enraged them, and, mounting their ponies, they charged on the saloon tents, firing their Winchesters with reckless abandon. The row became genera!, with the above result. The Naajocs have been sullen and dissatisfied for some time and now a general outbreak is feared, aé thoy refuse so bury their dend and are preparing fora war dance. The troops at Fort Win have been ordered to hold themselves in readi- ness to move at any moment.” “Can it be possible that Mr. Wilson has eud- denly gone crazy and they are quietly seqnes- tering him in « private saylum2” queried Miss Roma of herself as the Miner dropped from her nerveless hands, ‘This affair li what might be called ‘draymatic’ ; Thope it won't ticularly relish being under the direction of a luratic. but under the circumstances £ presnme the world would look upou ux a pair of ‘em, so L'il just stay by this hand and play it for what there 1s in it. Besides,” she admitted sharne- facedly to herself, “I have a groveling ambition to get even with Mr. Stanton.” That seare bead kept her from seeing any- thing else in the Miner, a0 she dropped 1t and took in the lundscape, which was familiar to her. There were tiny valleys cultivated by the primitive Mexicans and Pueblos underasystem of irrigation as primitive as themselves, involving a very limited knowledge of en- gineering. Foaming little torrents splashed and sparkled in the sunshine as they cout through fertile intervals, their sources cool mountain springs hidden in the dark recesses of the towering ranges. A few scattering pinons cast their grateful shade over the bold clear level of the mesas, and far be- yond the scarred and verdureless Rockies loomed up grandly in tho beautifully serrated land- seape. Here and there in this wonderful pic- ture were small adobe villages standing high on commanding emminences of enduring rock, or fashioned in its very face, all swarming with human life, the posterity of that strange people, the A..tecs. A RUDE AWAKENING. These half-civilized creatures crowded about tho train at the various stopping places—towns where the telegraph operator and pumpman comprised the whole city directory and a box car filled tne building record. Miss Roma watched them curiously, wondering if in their weird and sad mythology these storm-beaten cliff had ever occupied a prominent place— been their Olympus or Parnassus, perhaps. Not far to the eastward, on the banks of the historic Pecos, were the ruins of Cecuye and the reputed birthplace of their hero, Monte- | zuma, that Christ of their faith for whose sacred coming the Pueblos look so hopefully with the rising of each morning’s sun, but some way the personality of the aun worshipers and | their legends were not in harmony in Miss | Roma’x mind,and she wax so immersed in elucidation of the incongruities shaded and iss Roma enjoyed at that time the reputa- | shaped by her surroundings that she forgot the dignity due her position as representati of the Daily Miner and gave an undeniable | scream, as a gruff voice at her elbow granted | in Navajo Spania | “Quanto dinaro?’ Shades of Parnassus! was this the creature whom she had ao recently pictured with the gods in their rites and revela about great Olympus? Big and brawny and bronzed, with hardly as much clothing as would wuffice for a bathing suit, plated with copper, overlaid with silver, strung with the debris of a glass bead factory, redolent with “red eye” and a walking arsenal, stood one of the descendants of the mighty Azteor, children of the sun, a Pueblo Indian! In his haud he held the pride of her heart, her’ handsome silk umbrella, with ite handle of virgin silver from the Alcontara mines, “Ugh! Jobn heap no talk! Quanto dinaro?” and he shook the umbrella under the frightened Light dawned upon her bewildered brain; the Indian wanted to buy her umbrella. don’t want to sell it,” she replied quickly. “Here, give it to me! He tried to elude her, but she was too rapid for him, and as ber hand closed on the heavy handle she brought it down with a sounding thwack on his turbaned head. He was sur- prised-—and so was she. He locked at her dis- | dainfully as she sank weak and trembling into her seat, then gathering his gabardine about him, turned to go. “Squaw John heap brave, much damfool," he muttered as he strode to the door, So far Miss Roma had been the soie occupant of the car, but as the Indian made his exit a tie chopper came stumbling in. He took in the situation at a glance. A VALIANT DEFENDER. “Now, miss, whatever has this yere red son of Belial been « doin’ of to you? Shail I shoot ‘im ‘up a whole lot as.a kind of warnin’ not to git too familiar an’ gay along of females he ain't bin interdoosed to all right an’ proper?” laying his hands caressingly on the big Colts in his hip pockets as he spoke. **My patience, no!” cried Miss Roma hurriedly. “He has done me no barm, and, anyway, I'm able to take care of myself. “I'm a kiote if I don't beleeve yer kin,” re- turned the tie chopper with a chuckle as he sub- sided and dropped into a seat. At this point her privacy was further invaded by a dozen or more miners, tie choppers and railroad hands, who are commonly ‘designated as chaws and terriers in that country. The shabby car, not hulf so comfortable as a tour- ists’ car, was divided into two compartments, one for smoking and the other half presumably for ladies, but as the road was being constructed through wild and. save for scattering ranch- men and Indians, uninhabited country, women travelers were few and far between. The men who came in at Grout’s siding were hilariously nosy, but they paid no attention to Miss Roma after the first Curious stare. in which they sat- ified themselves of her social position, A true woman is always perfectly safe in the company of this class of men. Z Just after sunset Miss Roma ate her lunch, and, overcome with wearinese, laid her head on her grip ‘and was soon asleep. She was suddenly awakened some time after dark by a deep-toned flow of langunge usually expressed in polite literature by dashes innumerable. She glanced over the back of her seat, whence came the sea of lurid invective, then suddenly sat up and clapped her bands on her ulster pockets. One of her guns was gon The chaw behind her had followed her exam- ple and gone tosleep. In her restless twisting ‘one of the pistols had shpped frcm her pocket down through the back of the slatted sent and made itself offensively familiar with the chaw's tenderest corn. In the semi-darkness he reached for the peace disturber as it caromed from his foot to the floor,and was holding it up toward the light trying to discover what family of freaks it belonged to, the while he aired his vocabulary of invective, A SURPRISE PARTY, “If you please. that is mine,” interjected Miss Homa, convulsed with laughter and yet half frightened. ‘The chaw pecred at her wildly. “Yours!” he snorted. ‘What in blimbity blazes is the durn- dinged thing? Whar do you wear it?” ‘Miss Roms humbly replied that she carried it in her pocket, and that she bad a pair of them to protect herself. “I'm sorry it hurt you,” she added. “[ shore, thought it were a toothpick or baz- zom pin,” said the mollified chaw. “It air a bloomin’ fine thing fer pertectin’ anybody, ain't it?” and he held it up gingerly between his fingers, By that time every man in the car was interested. Seeing this the chaw dropped the offending little 22 on the seat beside him. “Pards, if yere backs my play this yere female's pertected same ez if she'd climbed to glory.an’ pulled up the ladder, Yere’s my guns,” laying a pair of trusty old campaigners on the seat he had just vacated, “Now, you all matches ‘em straight through, no holdin’ back, an’ this female takes her pick of the lot, and the felier what git the honor of presentin’ his guns to her air paid a whole lot.” Miss Roma had the good sense not to object. She knew the temper of the men by whom she was surrounded, and she knew also that they were attempting todo her honor, Without a word each one of the occupants of the car walked up and deposited a gun on the seat, and | when this stand and deliver process was ‘over | Miss Roma counted by the light of the smoking | kerosene lamp seventeen guns, from 82's to 44°, | There were silver, nickel plated and rusty iron |and steel mountings, and one in silver and mother-of-pearl. They represented bulldogs, | long Toms, navys, latest improved hair trigger | and double action and one pair of ‘49ers, The motley collection, telling im mute eloquence tales of thrilling adventure, hairbreadth escapes and brutal crimes, possessed a horrid fascina- tion for Miss Roma, and her dainty little 22 looked like a trinket for awatch chain beside them, ‘Now miss,” said the chaw, pointing with a sweeping gesture to the engines of death, “TL don't know which to choose,” she said in desperation, feeling very confident that the murderous array would haunt her forever. TAKING HER PICK. “They'll any one of ‘em fetch yer game first popif yer pint right,” he said reassuringly, “but I reckon this here's about your size,” and he picked up a superbly mounted mother-of- pearl bull dog, the silver chasing picked out | with gold. “Too small to do much damage less yer aim at vitals, but it'll drop yer man, kill or no kill. ‘The beggar as owns this yere will come for- ward and present it proper.

OUT OF A SOUND SLEEP. ‘Miss Roma ¢ettled down on her blankets and slept soundly for an hour or more, Suddenly loud voices broke her sleep and she sat up, dimly conscious that the train had not been moving for some time. She pushed up the blind and looked out. About thirty yards away agroup of excited men, among ‘whom could distinguish Indians, were gathered about asaloon tent talking angrily, and occasionally a pistol shot rang out in the night air. She throw up the window and put out her head. ‘The headlight of the engine shone fall upon her thatthe row brewing was She felt for her guns. “They wore enfin ber poel Shoving a pad of paper in clongside of one of them she jabbed & pencil in ber “bait ‘and was ready for “scoops.” but unfortunately sho was locked in, Just then there’ wasa crackle of dead grass under her window and Peering down in the gloom she saw of the diamond studs ‘no common one.

GETTING DOWN TO BUSINESS. “Unlock this door at once,” ordered Miss Roma asehe found ber scoop was ripe for picking. The beggar obeyed, grumblingtunder his breath at “fool temales who never knowed enuf to keep their heads outen’ danger.” He guided her in silence to the saloon. The dying Indian rolled over in the last agony as she reached him, and his half-sobered companions dragged him away. A dozen men bent and knelt about another form, the white heat of any nd resentment burning the words on their lips into silence. As Miss Roma came up with ber strange escort they fell away aud lift- ing tneir hats formed a ring about the heap at their feet. There on the ground, dead the instant the stray bullet touched bis heart, was s youth in the first flush of manhood. His wide-open blue eyes and smiling red lips just shaded by a curling blonde mustache gave no sign that the heart had ceased to beat, and Miss Roma knelt quickly to lay ber fingers on the pulseless wrist. ‘He's gone over the divide,” said some one as she rose to her feet again. “Who is he?” asked Miss Roma with ber heart in her mouth as she thought of some mother’s sorrow. *Tencerfoot, just in,” was somebody's sen- tentious reply. “But does no one know his name?” she asked in surprise. No,” nobody knew anything about him. ‘Stranger" was the name he went by. Gener- ally when ‘“‘np-and-uppers” like him appeared in that God-forsaken kentry they ele their records behind them.

There were letters and cards, both. Miss Roma recognized the name at once. The dead man was the son of one of the richest men in CI cago. Only a few days before he had been in- terviewed at length for the Daily Miner on his vast mining interests in Arizonia. He had large cattle states and an orange farm in California, Mise Roma knew also that in afew weeks he was to have been married toa lovely girl in Santo Fe, the daughter of an old Spanish sally: It was late, but the chaw promised to “shoot the operator up a whole lot,” if be refused to vend her stuff, so dropping on a beer keg under the gasoline lamp at the saloon door, with “tit” ather feet and the dark sinister faces and uncouth farms standing silently around, Miss Roma dashed off page after page of the wierd, pathetic accident and the chaw rushed it off to ‘ap ear inthe morning Miner. Then the men moved the body to the bar in Houk’s saloon. “Can you keep the body until orders come for its removal?” asked Miss Roma, “I have wired the boy’s father in Chicago and you will doubtless get some word tomorrow. “That's whatever. It'll keep fastenough.

There should not be one rule for the white mau and another rule for the red man. When they come together in the middle they do not fit and there is trouble like now.” “And how will it end?” asked Miss Roma. The old chief raised his shoulders in a testing shrug. “Who can tell?

It was almost daylight when the final stopping of the train andafearfal din awakened Miss Roma from a fitfal slumber, in which Mr. Stanton was dancing a war dance, brandishing her scalp. An Indian yell breaking upon the dead of night with the startling flerceness of the savage voice is perhaps the most surprising taing in the world. It matters little whether it is the war whoop or the dismal pow wow which dissi- pates slumber, so far a4 the surprise is con- cerned, for either rouses every sense as thor- oughly asan earthquake shock. There was a sudden succession of shrieks and yells and screams and hoots which burst with blood- curdling distinctress upon the derd quiet of the morning hours. Miss Roma sprang up confused and terror stricken, unable for the in- stant to decide which was ‘dream and which reality. The terrible din rolled and leaped and sank like the wails of lost spirits and then sud- denl= died ont, but every dog in the camp took up the echo and such a gumut of howls and yelps never before silenced the covote and panther. Tho telegraph gong went tum- bling out of the other end of the car and Miss Roma threw up her shutter to ascertain if ossible the cause of the pandemonium. Framed in that window space wus a gruesome sight. ‘The car stood on the siding at Gallup. In a little clear space among the pinon trees a few fect away was a big fire of pinon logs, ing hande and gyrating about it were some fifty Indians in war paiut and feathers, Their loins were covered with skins of gray wolves and their legs. breasts and backs, all bare, were painted with red and yellow and white wrig- sling ines meant to represent snakes. ‘They were beating tom-toms aud skin drums and yowling in a perfectly demoniacal manner. Now and then amid the pauses, made for the purpose, perbeps, one of the number would step to the side of the dead bodies stretched out under a kind of canopy and make an impassioned speech, in which he referred often by gesture to the dead heroes. Then the horrible din would be- gin afresh. Just then the chaw paused under the window and Miss Roma opened it. INTERVIEWING THE BIO CHISF. “Dare we go and talk to them?” she asked tremulously. Just at thet moment she wished devoutly that Mr. Stanton had had it in his power to “tire” her before she started on such a trip. ell, I'll be dinged!” ejaculated the chaw. ‘Most females would be in jumpin’ high strikes after what you've been through tonight.” “I'd be, too, if 1 dared!” acknowledged Miss Roma, with a tearful little Inugh, “but I haven't | time: I'm safe to collapse in the regulation female style when the pressure is removed.

From the San Francisco Fxaminer. ‘There were two men lowering a heavy cask of wine into a cellar the other day, and one of them asked his comrade to stand by a moment. ‘The man stood by and the first speaker took an extra hitch in the belt that held up his overalia “That's queer,” said Perry Ingram, who was passing at the time. “I saw ten mon do that in the face of certain death and of the other 250 who were with us I guess nine in every ten did the came. I know I did. auyhow. Can't tell why, because I never thought the matter over, but I'll swear that if I ever get into another fix like that again I'll do the rame thing over. “It was during the Basutu war of 1880. I was a trooper there at the time and was one of the 500 and odd that composed the Kim- berly horse. If there ever was « set of not- care-a-continental scallawage in Queen Victo- ria's uniform it was that same gang of rough riders. We fought all right, of couzee,but that was all we were good for. Honestly, 1 think half the troop was made up of ex-convicts and the balance of that classof adventurers who had pioneered the road tothe south African dia- mond fields. “We were in fort on Thiotee Heights: the Basutus, about 5,000 strong, were amusing themselves potting at us from the other side of the Thlotse river, and one day they took it into their beads to send about 1,200 warriore across the stream, over fords above and below us, to do us up. “As it happened that morning, about 250 of us were detailed to escort a couple of six- pounders up the hill to the fort from below, ‘and on our return ip the Basutus got between, us and the encampmert. ‘We threw out in open fils, while they rode down on ts—they were well mounted, were ‘those asutus— and we had orders to bold fire until they were about 100 yards away. “Weil, when they came within the given dis- tance we fired, bat instead of scaring them by killing off a hundred or +0, the beggars still | came on. Dismounting from their horses they seized their assegais—the mill was biack with them —and they rushed on us like the houuds of hell. “It's all up now. boys,’ thought I, for when those chaps take it into their heads to go the whole hog and charge they Jo it. : “While I was thrasting another cartridge into my rifle I telt a bit queer about the throat, and romehow, [can’t tell how, it seemed as though | my stomach was empty. | is to be scared, but I was not frightened then.

As I did so I looked around at the fel- lows nearest me. Every one of them was cinch- ing up just the same as myself. “Just fora moment everything on our side was silence, and the Basutus were not seventy yards away. Then we all begun blazing away and yelling, as men do in battle. ‘The fire frightened the blacks, Thev came within fifty yards of us, then turned tail and fled. We kept blazing away at the beggars as long as they were in Tange, and then suddenly ceased. strain was gone, the peril of death over.

The dispiay included juite a number of attractive and truly artistic Gnished pictures, studies, and sketches, in both oils and water color, The most of them are figure pieces, in which the artist excels, and manifestly finds most enjorment. Her ‘range in this field is exceptionally wide, and her eub- jects, which represent several different coun- tries, are treated with remarkable vigor, being firm in drawing, strong in modeling, end rich and harmonious in color. Mie Nourse, who is « Cincinnatian by birth, bas epent several presen stated, however, that the authorities considered the price asked for it—€40.000.—too high, and declined to purchase it. so that it has cally been in the market ever since, who, though not recognized as sculptors of groat reputation, have nevertheless executed some spirited statues of the eame class, notably | that of William the Conqueror, at Falaise, lis | birth-place. apd one of Dom Pedro I, at Rio Janeiro, That of Chariemagus, now referred to, represents the Great Emperor holding aloft We embiem of imperial authority, and sented on bis favorite war steed, which is led by bie faithfal and famous paladins, Roland and | Oliver.
