President McKlnlcy placed tho tip of
hla right forefinger on n tiny electric
button In his ofllcc at tho white house
at noon on Saturday. Then ho prosscd
It lightly and a thousand mllCB away
In tho Southland tho massive machin
ery of tho TcnnesBoo Centennial Ex
position was sot In motion. Flags of
all nations leaped from a hundred pin
nacles and "Old Glory" floated out over
tho scene from tho top of tho giant
flagstaff, whllo tho BonB and daughters
of TcnncBsco and of all states, gath
ered In thousands to hear recited tho
slmplo story of why tho exposition Ib,
mingled their shouts with reverbera
tions of saluting guns.
Thcso opening exorcises were Blmplo
and dignified, befitting tho character of
tho men who have made Nnshvlllo's bu
pcrb white city. In brlof addresses tho
governor of tho state and tho chlof
ofilcorH of tho exposition celebrated tho
history of Tennessee Interpreted tho
spirit of tho occasion, narrated briefly
what has been done and then Invited
tho wltolo nation to partlclpato In tho
bcnoflta.
I Triumph of NhhIivIHo.
No word of boastfulncss, no syllable
of Bclf-glorlflcatlon was heard. There
has been erected hcao tho greatest, tho
broadest, tho most beautiful and tho
most complcto exposition over built
without government aid. It Is big
enough to represent tho wholo nation,
from tho Atlantic to tho Pacific, from
Canada to tho gulf moro than 200
acres of park land, with all tho con
comitants of shady walks, groves,
lakes and flowers enough to deck tho
garden of a fairy queen. Its scope, lit
erally and figuratively, Is broader than
any Btate, any section, over-reaching
even national boundaries nnd bringing
togethor tho products of nil civilized
peoples. Tho arts and sciences, edu
cation and commerce, history ami pro
ductive possibility, tho skill of handi
craft which transmutes tho coarso ma
terial of mother earth Into tho dainti
est possessions of carth'fl Inhabitants
nnd tho genius which preserves tho
drenms of tho poet and artist for the
delight of humbler beings 111 aro rep
resented within tho walls of thcso
white palaces. In Its parts and In Its
entirety it has all tht completeness of
tho mastor workman's llnlBlicd prod
uct, ill tho beauty of tho artist's con
ception. From end to end It is tho work of
Nashville of Nashville, tho modest
capital of a modest Btate, n city which
Is outclassed by a score of American
cities in numerical strength and in
'ilustrlal Importance, a city where less
than 100,000 pcoplo live. Nashvlllo men
conceived tho Idea. Nashville men gavo
"the trains which has glvon that Idea
form in Iandscapo nnd architecture.
Nashvlllo dollars havo paid tho bills
to tho laBt cent. Tho last spadeful of
earth has been turned, tho last brick
laid, the last nail driven and paid for
and tho result is offered to tho people
of the wholo country with tho slmplo
Invitation, "Como and seo." Tho mon
of Nashvlllo who havo done nil this
look for their reward only In tho per
sonal consciousness of work well done
nnd In tho admiration of their follows
for tno fabric thoy havo reared. Ab
one looks at this exposition with tho
mlnd'B eye, taking In tho associations
which cluster around tho landmarks,
old and now, aboriginal and transplant
ed from other lands and other ages,
ono wonders ftt tho 'audacity of tho or
iginal conception nnd ''marvels that so
much of this gray old world's llfo story
can bo told on bo small a pago.
In tho beginning, this exposition was
planned to celebrate tho ono hundredth
birthday of tho "volunteer state." Pi
oneers of the samo blood as thoso who
laid tho foundations of this nation and
cemented tho stones with their blood,
carved a Btato out of the .wilderness
embracing tho rivers of "tho big bond."
June 1, 1790, tho star of Tennessee
waa admitted to constellation of states,
and these ploncors took upon them
selves all tho responsibilities of tho
new distinction, For n hundred years
thoso responsibilities havo been borno
how well tho history of tho wholo
country tells. Tho namo "volunteer"

Artificial liable.
In a recent lecture Prof. A. P. Brown
of Philadelphia described tho methods
now practised for making artificial
gems. Although minute diamonds can
bo made, with tho aid of the electric
furnace, none large enough to be em
ployed In Jewelry havo yet been pro
duced. But rubles of large size, and as
fine in color nnd appearance as the best
natural gerat, huve been made. Tho
ruby Is composed of oxldo of aluminum.
A certain method of detecting, artifi
cial rubles Is by examination with a
microscope. Tho natural gem Is al
ways filled with minute crncks.lnvislblu
to tho naked eyo, but perfectly discern
ible with a high magnifying power. The
utlilclal ruby has no cracks, but, on
the other hand, is filled with minute
bubbles, or gas-holes. This tost, ac
cording to Prof. Brown, Is tho only one
by which tho best artificial rubles can
be distinguished from the samo gems
as nature makes them.

COCAINE INEBRIETY,
ptclalUU
T.nrcely Illumed
for th
Spread of the Corse.
Tho medical press comments on the
gravity of the Incrcaso In many parts
of tho world of cocaine inebriety. Much
of the onus Is placed on druggists,
dentists, rhlnologlsts and Laryngolo
gists, on tho part of whom, It is main
tained, tho frcp prescription of the drug
should bo checked, says tho Pittsburg
Dispatch. Remembering that overy
Individual may live some special
Idiosyncrasy against some particular
drug tho first application of cocaine
should bo made very carefully, as, in
deed, should every subsequent one.
There can bo no doubt that many Bpc
clallsts nre responsible for establishing
tho cocaine habit with n great many
of their patients In having treated cory
zas, hay fevers nnd othor local discom
forts of tho nasal passages with solu
tions of cocaine. Tho constitutional ef
fect is pronounced nnd alluring. A
medical may says ho has now In mind
almost a score of such victims, who
would hnvo dono far better to havo
worried along with their liny fevers
and other nasal annoyances than to bo
afflicted with tho cocaine habit, which
is a hundred times worse than tho dis
ease for which It Is used. Tho great
est number of victims is to bo found
nmong Bocicty women and among wom
en who havo adopted Iltcraturo as a
profession; nnd there Is no doubt that
a considerable proportion of chronic
cocalnists have fallen under tho do
Inlon of the drug from a desire to stim
ulate their powers of Imagination. Oth
ers have acquired tho habit quite Inno
cently from taking coca wines fortified
with salts of tbo alkaloid in solution.
Both coca Wines mado from cocaine
nnd cocaine lozenges and tablets should
be supplied with the utmost caution
and prescriptions containing cocalno
should not bo dispensed a second tlmo
without being relnltlalod by tho pre
scribes The symptoms experienced by
tho victims of the cocalno habit aro
Illusions of sight and hearing, neuro
muscular Irritability and localizing an
aesthesia. After a tlmo Insomnia su
pervenes and tho patient displays a
curious hesitancy and nn Inability to
arrive at a decision on even tho most
trivial mnttor. One drug habit speed
ily engenders another nnd tho victim
of chronic cocnlnlBm Is usually addict
ed to overindulgence In alcohol, be
sides being a confirmed cigarette
smoker.
Warning.
When your dear girl gazes at you,
With a glanco to melt you through,
Don't Imagine, Ilko a stupid,
That her thoughts aro all of you.
'l'en to one her dainty musing
Is constricted on this wise:
"When we're married, won't I break
him
Of his horrid taste in ties."
