To sge the multitude of trucks, busses, carryalls and wagons arranged for the oceasion, that are already crowding up and down the streets, would all go to in- dicate that the means of transportation between the eity and grounds will be ample. Bvery streot car line is especially equipped for extra work fair week and the B. & M. will run special tifteen min ute traina betwean their eity depot and their station inside the grounds. Th trains will be equipped to carry thous- ands each day, and visitors arriving at the depotin #he city can change cars for the grounds direct. A year ago the im mense attendance at the faiv was handled rauch better than usunl, and this year better preparations than ever heretofore have beem made. AOW THINGS LOOK A glanee at the grounds last evening showed that all that has been predicted concern- ing a great show may be expected and fair weather will leave one of the best race tracks of the state in prime condi- tion for the raees that commence to-mor row unid eomtinue each day thereafter Notable korseflesh will be shown in to T and the action of the citizens in making the free-for-all a $1.500 purse in- sures o fine race in thatcontest.

A petition signed by 103 business men and citizens of Sutton has been received by the railway commission asking th tiiey use their endeavors with the B. & M. company to secure a new depot at t place. The pention recites that the pres- ent depot buitding there is wholly inade- quate for its requirements; that it been built fordourteen years, since which tune the town has grown rapidly, but the depot has remained the same; therefore, Mr. Henry trosshans and the 103 others ask fora new and more commodious building.

The case of the state against the mem- bers of the Lincoln base ball club for playing on Sunday came up for hearing under adjournment yesterday and the Case wis tried as a prelimi y examina- tion.

It is not so many years ago that Tony B——, the at- tache of a central lowa paper, now de- funct. rode out from a southern Iowa city one bright morning, perched ing- of a ly on the brake of a tlat car that was at- tached to a “wild freight” and loaded with iron rails. He was, like other reporters, made up of vices and virtues—only the first seen by the world, the latter best known by his intimate friends. He had been in newspaper work for about six years, was thoroughly eapable, and scored more oops’’ than were ever recor him. This, in the eyes of the c insared his entrance into pa To make the s short, 'S out from 1ts starting point, the “‘wild freight,” a terrible crash, went through a bridge, down sixty feet, and Tony sitting on the brake besm.

How Dublin ana Cork Have Fallen O in Size—Irish Banks and Their Business, BELFAST, Augu [Correspondence | of the cland Leader.} have now visited the three gre cities of Ireland I'hey are strikingly different in character Cork, the metropolis of the south, has 1t 80,000 people. 1t has a slow popu lation, and its buildings are old and | dirty. It has grown but little for years. Its people are poor, and its begears numerous. There are some fine stores in St. Patrick street, Its cathedral cost $500,000, and it has a promenade known as tho Mardyke, which gives a mile walk under wide-spreading elins. Cork i3 the greatest butter market of Ireland, and Cork butter is quoted in ail the wmarket reports of England. The butter sold is unsalted, and 1s as a rule sweet and good » far I have not found any salted butter in Ireland, and at the hotels each salts is own, Cork is about the size of Columbus, Dublin is as big as Cincinnati, and Belfast is just about the size of Cleveland or Washington oity, Belfast is the only progressive city of the lot, and it may be called the American city of Ireland. Cork had in 1851 just six less population than it had in 1361, and Dub- lin had lost 5,800 in 1881 from its census of twwenty years before Belfast, on $he_other hand, has nearly doubled since 1861, and between 1871 and 1881 it ned m 000. It had in 1831 a population of 208, and it now has about 220,000 Cork past. Be, the d man are Irish cities of the great Irish city of Its buildings are new and massive. [ts stores are as fine as those of Broadw nd its people mspire with ali the vigor of modern go-uahe tiveness. They understand how to ad vertise and display their goods, and they nd Dubli ast is th are ready to make money inany w: possible.” I saw but few beggars in Bel- fast. There was much poverty andsome | rags, but there was nothing of the begging of the south of Ireland. The streets of Belfast are wide and well paved, and 1ts tram ears run outinto the suburbs, where you find conntry houses not far different from tnose of America. I drove out the Auntrim road in a jaunting car, and passed block after block of pretty eight or ten-room villas, made of brick, with little bay windows in their fronts and with a steip of grass between them and the street. They looked for all the world like a slice of Washington city planted in Ircland Belfast is the great manufacturing ci of Ireland. Cork used to make som woolens, but its factorics are now in a large part going to ruin, Dublin makes whisky and porter in quantities, but it manufacturers nothing else Dub- lin whisky is noted for its zood qualities, and Guinness’ stout is sold all over the world. The two noted catedrals of Dub- wift and Stella & in A. D. 1109, was restore ! in by this big porter manufacturer at a cost of about seven hundred thousand dollars. Guinness, the portermaker, wus too rich aman to zo-without a title, so he w made a lord or a baronet. When he d his business was so great that there was no man in Ireland who could purchase it. It is now run by the family, all the mem- bers of which are se Al times million- aires. Porter costs, by the “.(), about six cents a bottle here, and good whisky #1a gallon and upwards. The tax on whisky is heavy, and a good article comes high. The big whisky man who restored Christ’s church cathedral, was Henry Roe, who spent $500,000 upon it. His family are still in the whisky business, but_their money has left them, I am told, and one of the sons gets $5,000 a ar for acting as manager of the big business his father built up. Belfast has many factories of many kinds. Itis the center of the linen man- ufacture of the world, and in its ship yards the White ar ships are built Linen and flax mills e scattere throughout the eity, and I went through the great York street mills, thetwo fa. tories of which cover ecight acres of ground, and which is the Jargest linen mill in the world. 1saw thousands of workmen of the all workmen of all « boys and girls, men and women noted the flax into and othe factory h able clothes, prints, curt kinds of linen goods. wls did not compare in pros- perity with those of a great American shop. ority of the girls and wome all of the boys were bar footed, and their wages were not half a.

A battery and instrument were pisced at eithor end of the lead pipe, but there was no cur- rent, and it was soon ascertained that the carront all passed from the wire to the pipe and from the pipe to the best known conductor—mother earth, Mr, George Wood, a clerk to the patente said afterward that for several days it was thought Professor Morse would lose his reason in consequence of this disap- pointment After a lengthy consultation ¥.
