Count Leo Tolstoi died last Sat urday at the age of 82 years. H was a reformer of Russia and has had much to do with modifying the laws of that monarchy in his life time. He was a great writer and reader and his works have been read by the people of all na tions. In 1895 he was threatened with exile into Siberia because of his radical views , utterances and writ ings and was expelled from his home at Moscow and- went tc dwell among the peasants , where he continued to write. Several publishers have been sent to prison for publishing Tel stoi's works , and last year one was sentenced-'to serve six months for publishing several articles from : n the great Russian who invited the courts to send , him in place of the publisher to. prison ; also writing to the , czar , and has defied further prosecution. HiSfbody was-.taken bySspecial train -back to his -home , where thousands of .all classes congre gated , going by special train to at tend the funeral. Czar Nicholas writes this no tation upon his official notice of Tolstoi's death : "I heartilydeplore the death of the great writer who embodied the golden age of his talent in his creations of types of the father land , .constituting/one of the most glorious periods of "Russian life , May lie find in God a merciful judgeV- ' -.Thanksgiving turkey or crow and -rejoice that the coun try is safe by the people's ma jority vote at the recent election.

New Orleans Opposed as Pan ama Exposition'City ; TEXAS FAVORS SAN FRANCISCO Decided Falling Off In Enthusiasts In Lone Star State as Evidenced by Articles Appearing In Papers of Ei Paso and San Antonio Swing In Line For the California City as the Logical Site. While New Orleans Is industrious ly claiming the endorsement of the Mississippi valley region and the middle west it is allowing the "solid south" to waver in its supposed al- lagiance and slip away. A few days ago word came from Ban Antonio , Tex. , that there was a decided falling off of New Orleans exposition enthusiasts in that city owing to the greed of the Crescent City in attempting to secure the Na tional Bankers' convention for next year , after San Antonio had "put in a bid for their entertainment. Such action was not considered neighborly , especially after the Texas city .had been -aske'd to support New Orleans iii its , struggle for exposition honors. Now El Paso , Tex. , has apparently swung into line for San Francisco as against New Orleans as the log ical site for the Panama exposition , judging by the following in the El Paso Herald of Oct. 12 : ' "El Pasc's Interest as to the loca- , tiqn of the Panama exposition of 1915 all lies with San Francisco as against New Orleans. As one commentator says : 'There never was an exposi tion so successful as that at Seattle , and there never was one so forlorn a failure as that at Jamestown , Va. , notwithstanding the fact that half the population of the country is with in & day's or a night's ride of- James town. ' An exposition at San Fran- cisoo will promote the development of the west and that is what we are after. " Sometime ago New Orleans secured en endorsement in St. Louis and that Buccess appears to have induced the belief among the Crescent City boost ers that the entire middle west was only waiting for an invitation to climb on the New Orleans band wagon. ( Next New Orleans announced that Omaha was for it , but the announce ment was -premature. In jts hurry to report result the New Orleans bu reau at "Omaha sent broadcast over , the country that New Orleans had been endorsed as the expouition city by the Commercial club , the largest and most , influential organization of business men there. Immediately the Commercial club held -a meeting , repudiated the alleg ed endorsement of New Orleans and endorsed San Francisco by an over whelming vote. The city council cf Omaha , by unanimous vote , passed a resolution also endorsing San Fran cisco. Still asserting title to the sympathy and influence of the entire middle west section , the New Orleans boost ers descended upon Chicago and re quested an endorsement. The re- .quest was politely but firmly refused , but New Orleans , nothing daunted , continued to "claim" Chicago's sup port , confident in the belief that the endorsement would come later. But on Oct. 7 Chicago showed unmistak ably where she stood in the exposi tion fight when the National Business .League of America adopted a resolu tion , which after setting forth the ad vantages of San Francisco , conclud ed , "That San Francisco be , and hereby is , strongly recommended as the projier site for the proposed ex position. " New Orleans suffered another re buff when she sought the endorse ment of Washington , D. C. Washing ton refused , whereupon the New Or leans promoters dismissed the sub ject with the remark that Washing ton did not count anyway. New Orleans -topes" to raise about $8,000,000 for her proposed exposi tion , which will be entirely Inade quate for so great an undertaking , tut Senator Foster of Louisiana seeks to minimize the Importance of having sufficient funds to insure the success of the enterprise. Admitting that San Francisco will have more than twice as much money for expo sition purposes as New Orleans , he pleads that "it would be mean and unfair for congress to take that fact into consideration. " California Solid For Exposition. Supporters of. San Francisco's claim to the Panama exposition in 1915 are confident that an overwhelming dis play of exposition funds will win/ gov ernment , recognition to the fair it Is proposed to hold on the Pacific coast. If California Is as solidly united on this project as the utterances of Cali fornia editors would Indicate the rep resentatives of that state wll ! appear before congress this winter with a fund of ? 17,500,000 raised through private subscription , city bonds and a state tax. It/may be that New Orleans will make some announcement of a heavy raise at the" last mome.nt , but the Pa cific coast Is disposed to believe that Its showing will overshadow anything New Orleans can , do .in. the. way of tie sinews Qfcgnrar and eXr/ All Leading , . * ' ; ' Brands * Bottled ; < - v- / " , .
