known until recently that the meeting would
really be held here Omaha was designated
as the place at the last session , but lately
an effort was made by several other cities ,
Including Chicago , to have the meeting place
changed , and It was only by the hardest
kind of work that those efforts were made

LITTLE GIRL AT THE |
EXPOSITION. S
Dear Mr. Editor- The last time my
friend and I went to the exposition we had
such a good time we thought wo would go
again and then I didn't know if you had
got back from Washington or not , and , as
another excursion of children was expected ,
I thought I had bettec be on hand.
I don't think there V7as quite as many
children came this time as before , but there
were enough to make things lively , and
say , Mr. Editor , did vou ever notice that
when vou nre In a crowd that jou meet
the same party nearly everywhere you go'
My friend and I had a whole lot of fun
jesterday over a party that seemed to be
Sagging us everywhere we went. This
party , a man and his wife and three chil
dren , were enjoying themselves In their
way , which greatly amused us. Say , did
you ever stop to think how many dlffcrei.t
wajs there are to enjoy yourself at the
exposition ? The mother Eeemed to be
afraid that the children would starve and
Insisted upon feeding them every few
minutes from a basket she carried with
icr , and I Just wish you could have seen
.lie things that came out of that basket.
[ know jou would have been surprised , for
I was. My friend giggled and I thought It
was time to move on , so we started to the
Agriculture building and here I found the
sweetest place I was ever In In my life and
I -will tell jou right where to find it , so
when jou go out jou can go and see It for
joureelt. You will find It In the Agri
culture building , in Nebraska's exhibit.
Here I became acquainted with a bee
that was not an Omaha Bee and It must
lava been a verj' busy bee Hero we
'ound a big flour mill , constructed out of
lonejcomb , and I am sure you will agree
with me when I say it was sweet. The
mill and the house on the hill were made
of honejcomb and besides this there was
the tiny miniature railway with the engine
and cars on the track. This was sweet
also , but was not made out of honeycomb ,
and if the flour made In this mill is as
sweet as the mill Is I should think that
all the bread would turn out cake
This Is only one of the many of Ne
braska's beautiful exhibits. I was just
wondering bow much flour a mill like this
could turn out in a day when "our party"
with the lunch basket hove In sight , and I
was so afraid my friend would giggle again
.bat I concluded I would wait until some
other time to make inquiries.
So wo passed on and what attracted our
attention most was that wonderful exhibit
rom Montana. I think Montana must be
one of the most beautiful states In the
west , with Its lofty mountains with animals
running wild all over them , and the cutest
Ittle waterfall comes dashing down the
Bide of the mountain , and I wondered if
he noted California , trees could be any
more beautiful than those I found here.
And I made up my mind that If I ever got
Ircd of Nebraska I would go to Montana to
IveWe
We finally started for home and had just
got seated In the car going home when our
rlends with the lunch basket got aboard
be ccr , and , would you believe U , Mr.
Mltor , that basket was not empty jet.

MANAGER ROSEWATER TELLS OF HIS TRIP

Interent In the Imposition null
Lend Much AnnlHlnncc to
Mnkc It a Succcmi.
Edward Rosewatcr returned yesterday
from Washington , whither he went at the
behest of the managers of the exposition
to invite President McKlnley to attend the
Peace Jubilee early in October.
In an Interview Mr. Hosowater said : "I
have been out nine days and have had a
very successful tour. Before starting for
Washington I labored under the impression
that Chicago had given up Its proposed
peace jubilee , but upon my arrival , there
eastbound I found that they had reconsid
ered and decided to make an effort to get
the president to attend their demonstration.
In order to avoid any conflict with Chicago ,
which has a representative In the cabinet
In Secretary Gage , I communicated with
their committee of arrangements and was
invited to a conference with President
Revell of the Union League club and Fer
dinand Peck They expressed themselves as
very anxious to co-operate and I promised
to report to them what disposition the
president seemed to evince regarding his
proposed western tour.
"Arriving at Washington on Saturday
morning I succeeded In securing an Inter
view by appointment at 3 p. m. I was ac
companied by Assistant Secretary of War
Melklejobn. The president appeared to be
very favorably Inclined He paid a high
compliment to the pluck and energy of the
exposition management vhtch had carried
out Its plans in the face of war. The presi
dent was also highly pleased -with the
painting of the Grand Court -which I pre
sented on behalf of the exposition. That
picture Is now hung up In the White House
nid will bo a reminder there for years to
come of the great achievement at Omaha.
Get I'oiiltlve ANNUI-IIIICC.
"When I read the report sent out by the
Associated Press to the New York papers ,
which seemed to Indicate that the president
had not vet made up his mind with refer
ence to a western tour , I decided to have
a second Interview and to make sure that
nothing had happened to cause the presi
dent to change his mind. As I had at the
first Interview secured a promise from the
president of a signed photograph to bo
hung up In The Bee building , I had a good
excuse for returning to the White House.
At the second Interview the president was
very positive that he fully intended to visit
Omaha , there being no question except as
to the time and possible complications that
no ono could foresee.
"All the cabinet officers were out of the
city on-my arrival , attending the New York
naval review. On their return last Monday
I succeeded In Interviewing five of them
and each promised to participate In our cele
bration on Cabinet day. The fact that they
all seemed to have fallen In with the idea
Indicated clearly that the president had al
ready mentioned the matter to them
"Just before closing my first Interview
with the president I broached th& Chicago
matter and the president waved his hand ,
stating that Chicago was quite able to take
care of Itself , and I thereupon dropped the
subject. While In New York I received
the following telegram from Postmaster
Gordon of Chicago
" 'Anxious to communicate with reference
to the prcaident's visit to Omaha. Chicago
people want to co-operate with you' This
telegram Indicates that Secretary Gage him
self had not been able to get the president
to commit himself to a promise to stop over
in Chicago , coming or going , but In all
probability he will do soj >
"On my arrival in Chicago on the return
trip the Times-Herald had this to say
"President McKinley has accepted the In
vitation to attend the Peace Jubilee in Oc
tober He will possibly be accompanied by
Lymen J. Gage , secretary of the treasury ,
and John D Long , secretary of the navy.
"The Jubilee executive committee rejoiced
jesterday over the receipt of this news
from Washington. Edward Rotewater of
Omaha , who went east to see the presi
dent , verified the news or the president's
contemplated attendance at the Jubilee In
a telegram announcing that the president
had given positive assurance that he would
visit Chicago while enrouto to the Trans-
mlsslsslppl Exposition at Omaha.
"Mr Rosewater , representing the Omaha
Exposition , conferred with the Jubilee com
mittee before he went to Washington and
agreed upon a date which would give the
president an opportunity to attend both
cities without personal inconvenience. The
formal Invitation to the president has also
been tendered by W R Harper , chalrmau of
the Invitation committee Much depended
on Mr. Rosewater's visit. Formal accept-
once is expected by mall within a few days.
"The nevvs of the president's decision
created great enthusiasm.
Will Hiivo the War llnllooui.
"As to the war balloons and war relics ,
the exposition IK under great obligations to
Assistant Sec-etary Melklejohn , who has
taken special pains to extend all the favors
possible. It was chiefly through his co-
jperation that we succeeded In getting the
balloon * , although General Greeley IB a. per-
Watching Their Watches
When General Shatter had completed the
Investment of Santiago , word went along
the five-mile line of battle , "The attack on
the Intrenchments will be made at 4'15"
At 4 15 every American soldier's hand
went to his American watch , and ever )
American patriot on the field said : "NOW ! "
History tells the result.
A good watch Is needful In war as in
peace. Modern life , whether on the field of
battle or In the quiet home , is measured
by fractions of minutes. "Pretty near
the right time" will not do , In these stirr
ing times. Get ono of my American
Watches and go by It.

the exposition was manufactured for the
War department at Frankfort , N. Y. , o
pongee silk. Its capacity Is 21,000 cubic
feet , sufficient to carry four persons. This
balloon is equipped with complete tele
phonic and telegraphic apparatus. Commu
nication Is established by means of Insulatec
wire , paid out as the balloon ascends. A
complete photographic outfit Is also part ol
the equipment The hjdrogen gas Is gen
erated by means of an apparatus consisting
of gas generator , gasometer , gas compressor ,
steam engine and several hundred gas tubes
These tubes arc eight Inches In diameter
and fifty Inches long. They arc seamless ,
each tube being tested to a pressure of 4.00C
pounds to the square Inch. By means of the
gas compressor the tubes are filled with
hydrogen gas , practically In liquified state.
When the balloon Is to be Inflated the tubes
are connected by means of valves and fit
tings to the gas chamber In the balloon
and Inflation Is made. At Santiago this
monster balloon was used by the United
States signal corps in making observations
In conjunction with a number of small bal
loons of various colors placed so as to indi
cate the position of each brigade or division.
"Another thing that I succeeded in bring
ing about was the enlargement of the Indian
encampment. The Indians now here are to
bo reinforced by several hundred red men
from the southwest. Prof. James Mooney
of the Smithsonian Institution , who has been
delegated for ethnological work , Is here now
and will proceed to the reservations of the
Klowas , Commanches , Wichltas and asso
ciated trlbee , Arapahos , Cheyennes and
Apaches , under Chief Geronlmo , now held
as prisoners of war at Fort Sill , Oklahoma.
The professor will return with these Indians
In about two weeks. "
FUTURE OF THE CURRENCY
Mr. Cornwell of the American Bank-
era' Axiioclntlon Expremieii Hlm-
oU on the Question.
William C. Cornwell of Buffalo , N. Y. , ex-
president of the New York State Bankers'
association , a member of the executive com
mittee of the Indianapolis convention , vlco
president for New York of the National
Sound Money league and chairman of the
committee on education of the American
Bankers' association , is in < the city on his
way homo from the Denver convention.
Mr. Cornwell , in conversation with a Bee
man , said :
"The Bee's editorial yesterday morning
on the 'Future of the Currency' was timely
and sound and the splendid work of The
Omaha Bee In the fight for sound money
during the trvlng > ear just past has given
It an enviable reputation in the east and
has done jeoman service in bringing about
a change of Ideas In the northwest , where
the people have simply needed education to
bring them to a just conclusion on the great
question of the monetary standard. The
editorial touches upon the ill adaptation of
our currency for the growing hold we are
getting on the commerce of the world. The
United States has demonstrated Its naval
and military supremacy and these depart
ments will bo speedily brought to first-class
conditions If lacking at any point. In Mc
Klnley we have developed a war president
and a statesman of the first clasa. His
conduct throughout 005 excited admiration
and profound respect abroad and veneration
and Intense loyalty on the part of the Amer
ican people. Our currency department Is ,
however , lamentably deficient for the pur
poses of our own great buslnesi , to say
nothing about what may come to us through
recently acquired or to be acquired control.
"The business men of the United States
thoroughly appreciate this need and through
the Indianapolis convention , the grand and
Inestimably valuable work of the monetary
commission and the McCleary bill , which
Is the outcome of these forces , the business
men have shown that they propose to bave
this matter settled right and settled soon.
"I have Just returned from the Bankers'
convention at Denver. It was one of the
most Interesting conventions we have ever
held. The Denver people were royal In
their hospitality and we are all In love with
them. I was prepared by the bankers who
itopped at Omaha on the way out to ex
pect a rare treat In viewing the exposition.
I am not only not disappointed , but flnd H
tar beyond tny expectation ! . The icene at
