MAYOR TALKS OF EXPOSITION Drclnre the Pnn-.tmericnn Minir Is Xnt Kittnl ( Omnlin'n Trnin. mllliil. "The Pan-American exposition Is grand. One could not wish for finer grounds and buildings and the electrical display Is beau tiful beyond belief,'' said Mavor Frank E. Moores, who has returned from Buffalo. "Tho exposition Is nit a success, however, as the Transmlsslsslppl Exposition was, The management lacks the vigor and push of tho men who mado our exposition pros per In the fate of awful odds. "Located as It Is In a country where the population Is very dense, the Huffalo expo sition should be having two or threo times the attendance It Is attracting at present, It Is thought that all the bonds Issued to build the exposition will be paid, but stockholders wilt not be paid back what they Invested In the big show. The In come was mortgaged to bankers, who have had control of expenses and have limited the advertising to such an extent that tho exposition has been greatly handicapped. "The electric tower Is the pride of the grounds nnd Omaha should be proud of Henry Rustln, who made such an electrical display possible. I do not believe that anything more beautiful than the Illumina tion of the grounds will he created during this century. With all the power of Ni agara behind the electricians, they were able to turn the grounds Into a fairyland. It Is a beautiful sight when the lights are turned on In the tower each evening. All the lights In the groundB arc extinguished for a moment. Then the tower and the buildings show a faint touch of red and In moment all nre ablate with brilliant lights, "Mrs. Dowser's sod house Is probably the most successful conccKslon on tho grounds, from n financial point of view.

She Is showing eastern people what good chicken pies and other homc-mado dishes Nebraska women can make. It Is estimated that Mrs. Dowser will clear about $25,000 on her sod house. "All the Omaha men who have conces sions at Huffalo are making money now, but are much disappointed In the size of the crowds. Tho largest attendance for any day so far was 127,000. This Included all per sons employed on the grounds and was no larger than the TransmlssisslpprR banner day. when 99,000 paid admissions were re corded. "If the management of the Huffalo show had had some Omaha push and get-up the show would have been a great financial suc cess. Thcro seems to havo been no well developed plans for rushing crowds In on special days. As soon as the exposition opened the management choked off adver tising, assuming that the exposition would advertise Itself." SURFEIT OF BUFFALO STAMPS Oin film I'ii a I Minuter Una So Many .Souvenir that Ilr Doesn't Know What In Do. Postmaster Crow Is not particularly pleased over the fact that his offlco now has on hand more than 3,000,000 stamps of tho Pan-American exposition Issue. Tho Hale of theso stamps concludes on October 31 next, and all surplus remaining In offices nt that time Is to be forwarded to the redemption division of the Postofllce department at Washington for credit. The postofllce authorities here would much prefer selling these stamps to returning them, so they wish published broadcast over this community the fact that they havo plenty on hand. There are some pcpple, es pecially stock yards business men, who for some unknown reason prefer the Pan- American stamps, and nil such will have the opportunity before October 31 of buying In a stock. They will be good for an In definite period, although the sale will be stopped. Postmaster Crow has 1,500,000 each of 1 and 2-cent stamps of this Issue, but It Is not those that are worrying him. They can bo easily sold out by tho end of the month. However, there Is also on hand nbout 25,000 each of tho 4, 5, S and 10-cent varieties, and It Is feared that somo of these will be loft over.

NEW YORK ROMANCE OF DEEP MYSTERY Indian Stories Doni-dlnR School Girl Tlliln Jnnr Mnrle llaaltklrtsrfr Western Outlaw Valnahle Works for Writers. Stewart Edward White has laid the set ting of "The Westerners" In tho Rlack Hills during the early rush to tho gold fields. Tho two central figures to the plot oro a young girl, Molly Iafond, growing to womanhood In a rough mining camp, and Michael Lafond, n scheming, revengeful halfbreed, her supposed father. In his younger days Lafond had been wronged, as he thought, and to repay the Injury he had caused the death of a young mother and had stolen her child during an Indian raid. "If you wish to harm a person tako away that which he loves best, but that Is not life," a white man had told htm. So the child was preserved and brought up on bd Indian reservation ns tho daughter of the halfbreed. Men asked few questions tn those days. When the girl, Molly, was almost a woman Lafond came for her and took her to tho mining camp of Copper Creek. To have her grow to womanhood coarse, hardened, disreputable, as were the women of the camp, that was his plan. Then he would tell her of her family and her birth. Her shame and remorse would be bis rovenge. Rut this end was never accomplished. A New England conscience asserts Itself at the right moment the love of Jack Graham, a young miner from the east, offered a refuge. The evolution of tho girl's character and the development of Michael Lafond's cunning and coolly laid schemes furnish the Interesting elements of tho plot. The Intermittent humor and the sketches of the western life of that picturesque period ore especially note worthy. McClure, Phillips & Co., New York. Price, $1.60.

George Dlrd Grlnnell. whose new book of Indian tales entitled "The Punishment of the Stingy and Other Indian Stories" Is Just published, has had a unique experience. He has been dignified by the title of War Chief by his friends nnd admirers, the Pawnee Indians, and during his association among them and with other tribes of the red men he gathered material for most ex cellent Indian stories. Sitting with them by the aides of their fires at night, he has had tho unusual privilege of listening to their legends and folk-lore, Just nt they have been passed on for many generations from slro to son. Such records are not only most entertaining In the form In which the author presents them, but they nre of last ing value In the history of tho native races of the American continent.

"Fighting Under the Southern Cross." bv Claude H. Wetmore, Is a story of the Chlll- Peruvian war, W. A. W'tlfle company, pub lishers, Roston nnd Chicago. Mr. Wet moro Is peculiarly fitted, by nature, train ing and circumstances for the telling of this story. A practical newspaper man, his stylo Is strikingly simple nnd direct, and to this he adds tho observations gathered in extensive travels. Ho was for Bome time city editor of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, nnd has been prominently Identified with other papers, but his best known pleco of newspaper work, perhaps, was his re port of tho Johnstown flood for the New York World, which was remarkable for its graphic descriptions nnd faithful portrayals of fact. Mr. Wetmore was In tho very vortex or the extraordinary struggle of which ho writes In the "Southern Cross." As a non combatant he mingled freely with both sides, and Is ns conversant with tho people and conditions of these South American republics as Is Kipling with the various phases of Indian life. Tho story Is full of sparkling Incident, charmingly told. There is not a dry page In it. Much his torical and descriptive material is Intro duced, but so cleverly Is It Interwoven with the thrilling situations of the narrative that It Is dominated by them, nnd tho reader absorjba unconsciously what would be otherwise rather dry facts. Threo Amer- can boys are Introduced during a regatta In Callno bay and are the medium through whom tho reader learns the facts of the controversy between the two countries. which later culminate In a declaration of war. The history of this war has been but Beldom touched upon and still less often In story form. The book has been so well re eclved that the author promises to follow It with another, dealing with the troublous reconstruction period after the war. "Caps and Capers," by Gabrlello E.
