0T, LOUIS. Oct 8. -Chicago day was
ebaerved at the World's (air today by
throngs of resident of that city, reinforced
by thuunanda of St Loulsan. For threo
4sya ppeolul tralna aad regular trains, di
vided inte numerous sectlona, have tieen
bringing thousands of parsons to St. Loula
from Chicago, and no time was lost today
In reaching the World's fair grounds, where
labor ts preparations had been made to
ntertaln the visitors.
The first event on the program was the
official visit of Mayor Harrison of Chicago,
the Chicago day committee and the mem
bers of the mayor's official family to Pres
ident D. R. Francis and the officials of the
asoaltlon. After sn exchange of greet
ings and felicitations the procession was
formed and the visiting officials were es
corted to the Plasa St. Loula. where Pres
j tdent Francis delivered a parting address
' to the foreign hands that have been play
ing at the exposition.
The parade was then re-formed and
augmented by squadron of the First
Illinois cavalry and several other military
organisations, marched to the Illinois
World's fair pavilion, where the formal
axerclses of Chicago day were held.
One of the moat demonstrative crowds of
the exposition period gathered about the
0clala as they alighted from the carriages
and proceeded Into the Illinois pavtUon.
Cheer upon cheer for Chicago and her
mayor rent the air. Following closely upon
the official party came the "army of yel
low" button wearers whlohl filled the lobby,
crowded the galleries and blockaded Jh
terraces below. - State Benator J. p. Mu
ttony of Chicago presided at the exvrclaes
and Introduced State Commissioner C. J.
Xoyl of Greenville. Commissioner Puyle
, acted as Governor Tates' personal rcpresen
' tative. Coming, perhaps, as a surpirae tt
Chlcagouna, but loudly applauded by Bt.
lxulsans, was Mr. Doyle's statement that
the tt. Louis exposition was the greutest of
xpoaltlona.
I Mayor Harrleea's Sa.
I Following President FratK-ls' address of
i sjreloome to the visitors. Mayor Harrison
stm called upoa u respond ta the aaiuo U
r
the "White City." Cleverly evading the an
swer to the momentous question, "Does the
St. Louis exposition surpass the Colum
bian?" Mr. Harrison said: ,
With customary modesty we Chlcogoans
considered in 1903 our exposition the most
excellent up to date, and now we are oon
fldent that In this Louisiana Purchase ex-
fesltlon Bt. Louis has set a standard which
o equal will tux the energies of any clfy."
A response by Alderman J. E. Bennett, on
behalf, of "the committee of 400," concluded
the exercises.
But few hours intervened before the Pike
parade, headed by the great Chinese dragon
operated by 100 men, started down the
amusement stree. Distinctly oriental In Its
character, the feature was a treat for even
those so-called staid and sophisticated
dwellers of the grounds.
Closing the day's fete, the doors of the
Illinois building were thrown open for an
Informal reception. After a short visit to
pay courtesy to the Illinois hostesses, not
a few of the Chlcagoana strolled Pike ward
and spent the few remaining hours In gen
eral festivity.

CONTRASTS IN TWO STORIES
How the Cupper Mairnate Made a Pile
aad the Blacksmith a Modest
Fortune.
Thomas W. Lawson is telling In thrilling
words the marvelous "Story of Gold" tell
ing how certain men, nay, a certain man,
made $&,000,000 in one day's work. Ancient
tales of kingly treasure chests and the
vast riches plundered from caravans In a
single raid, pale into lcsimlflcaace beside
the revelation of Mr. Lawson. Thlrty-sUN
million dollars in one dayl
But interwoven with that golden story
there is another, which tells In plain, clear
and vigorous English what manner of man
tt is whose brain conceives and executes
the financial coups by which that vast
sum, and others even greater, have been
"made" by him and bis associates. And
If there Is such a thing as conscience, and
If Mr, Lawson speaks truth, tils story
makes unhappy reading for some one.
The news dispatches tell us another story
of money making. They tell us that for
forty-elx years, day In and day out, with
out Interruption, Blacksmith Swope of Des
Molnea, la., has been swinging bis ham
mer, blowing his bellows and making his
anvfl ring cheerfully and musically upon
the air.
Not a day did re remain away from his
forge, except during the three years that
ha laid down his apron and tools te don
the btue uniform and shoulder the musket
of a federal soldier, to battle for his coun
try. And when be had passed safely
through that awful struggle, he returned
to his smithy and again took up hl ham
mer. Hsceutly ho retired at tha rtpe old age
af II years, bat still kale and hearty, and
with a modest little fortune ef fSQM ta
gladden his last years.
And all bis townspeople) speak kindly te
him as thay pass, and smile at him. and
say good things of hlna ta ethers, and
revere him and honor him. He has only
151000 but tt 1 his, all ala, aooestiy earned;
and there's not another man can Justly
lay claim to a single dollar af It. His
anvil song never sang the requiem ever the
ew-raade grave of the suicide; the glow
of his forge never disclosed the vision of
wrecked homes and fortunes), and there is
none to heap curses upon bis Uttla old
shop, as there are thousand ta fling
anathema at WaQ street
The stury ef Wall street requires na aeat
snent. Ana tha tare strangest Calais ta tha lory
of the blacksmith ars that keeping ever
lastingly at it brings success; and that
$60,000 with peace and honor is Inestimably
better than as many millions without them.

Last night Detective Elsfelder arrested a
negro who gives bis name as John Kef

C, W. Hodgins at Twenty-fourth and Q
streets on the afternoon of August 20.
Hodgins, who was employed In one of the
packing houses st the time, was found on

The Injured man was removed to the South

Ths South Omaha police have worked

of the person who assaulted him. Several
arrests were made, but all of the men were

FOUNDLINGS v ARE NOT SOLD
Agent Who Took Children to Arlsona
Places Them with Poor Mexlcane
and ir Arrested.
PHOENIX, Aris., Oct. (.According to
the most reliable advices obtainable re
garding the troubles at Moreucl, Arlx., a
mining town in Graham county, over the
lleged attempt to sell foundlings from New
York City, the situation Is not as serious
as has been reported. Reliable advices
from Clifton, a town near Morencl, are
that forty children were sent out by the
New York Foundling and Orphan asylum.
Sixteen of these were placed in families in
Clifton and twenty-four were taken to
Morencl, where the majority of them were
placed with poor Mexican families. The
American residents of Morencl objected to
the children being placed with a class of
Mexicans, who they claimed, were entirely
unfitted for to have care of them. An in
dignation meeting was beld at C iftou and
resulted tn the arrest of G. W. Swayne,
the agent of the asylum and the local
priest. The people demanded that the chil
dren be put in the care of American fuml-
lies, but Swayne refused to do this, and
said he would take them back to New'
York. Objection was made to the giving
over of the children to Swayne'a chargn,
and It was feared by some that they might
be taken to old Mexico.
The latest authentic report Is that
Swayne is awaiting instructions from the
asylum officials in New York.
The purpose of Swayne and assistants
seems to have been to place the children
with Catholic families in this section, of
whom there are but few except Mexicans.
While charges have been made that the
children were being sold, there appear to
be nothing to substantiate this claim.
