TUESDAY ENDS TIME FOR APPLICATIONS Department 1'lniln < lic Space All Oc- ciiilvil by ( lie .Mont Dealrnlilc ClitflN of ISxIilliHcirn MnkliiB Out .Vccpptnncc * . March 1 Is tbo date fixed by the rules of Iho Department of Exhlblto as the last day of grace for the reception of appllcatlonn for space Ir the exposition. After that time the Indlvlduala , firms , municipalities or state * which have not filed their applications for enace will have a har.3 time convincing the nuthorltles that their applications for ad mission should bo accepted. Another rule provides that no article * Intended for exhibi tion will bo admitted after May 1 , and epace rot taken possession of by that tlmo will re vert to the cxpoeltlon authorities for rcas- Elgnment. Thceo dates arc being very rapidly approached preached and the Department of Exhibits la growing In Importance at a corresponding rate. Acceptances at applications are being Bent out na fast as the necessary surveil lance canbe had , and already 290 accept ances have been sent out. These represent a largo number of applications , many of them being for collective exhibits , such as ara to bo made by states and large concerns where exhibits nro made In several different buildings. Tlio policy of the department has been to proceed very deliberately In the matter of acceptances , and only those applications have been accepted which are regarded as particularly desirable. It was plainly ap parent several weeks ago that the applica tions for space would far exceed the capacity of the buildings and that It would be necce- sary to do a great deal of "weeding out" In order to select only the most desirable exhibits. Tlio acceptance of < in application Is fol lowed by the assignment of the exact space the exhibit Is to occupy and the plat of the building Is marked to show the exact locution end the amount of space thus disposed of. Thta allotting of space has occupied the time of Superintendent Hardt for several week. . . . lie has devoted his evenings to the work In order to bo free from Interruption , and the main floor plans of each of the main build ings show that there la little or no space re maining unoccupied. In one or two of the buildings there are two small spaces still un designed , but three will be occupied within a day or two. The galleries nro the only hope of those who have not yet been assigned epaco and the limited amount of space In these will not accommodate a. great many cxtlbltors. A largo omount of space In some of the galleries haa already b3en assigned. Superintendent Hardt say that In making these selection ; ! from the great mass of ap plications on hand ho has token the great est care to select exhibits which will make a complete and harmonious collection , cover ing the full range of the subject under con sideration. Ho says that his experience In such matters shows htm that the exhibition ! * which will ho made In each of the buildings will bo of the very highest grade of excel lence , and that an exposition Is assurci which will be , from an exhibit standpoint ono of the most complete and magnlflcenl affairs ever open In thh country.

W , Thomas receiver of the Midland bank , located on the third floor of the New York Life building yesterday afternoon , but all of the books am accounts relative 'to the bank's affairs were saved. The safe contained most of them ant those the clerks had In use were removet with but little damage. Receiver Thomas was In an office on the tenth floor of the building when the fire broke out. It originated from some unknown cause about 3 o'clock In the corner of the room where Mr. Thomas' private desk stood and even Victor Munnccke , ono ot the clerks , who was working at a table close by , did no ! notice the flames until after they had com pletely enveloped the desk. Ho gave the alarm and then sot about to save the books and papers that were lying about. When the department arrived on the scene confusion was In possession of the building from top to bottom. The tenants and their employes , together with all other persons who were Inside flocked Into the halls and swarmed the stairways in their mad rush to got Into the street. The elevators \\ero kept running nnd every trip down they were jammed with people until finally the shafts became so dense with smoke that It waa almost Impossible to breathe. Until the real nature ot the flro became known every moment threatened to precipitate a panic. Then the excitement subsided and the occu pants returned to their offices. By the time the flrcmen had laid two lines of hose to the burning office the room was a seething furnace. Water was turned on quickly , however , and in a short tlmo the flro was extinguished. ( Mr. Thomas' desk nnd all of hla-porsonal papers which It con tained were totally destroyed. The other turnlturo and the woodwork of the room were badly damaged. About $600 will cover the actual loss , against which there Is no Insur ance. "Wo are all at n loss as to the origin of the fire. " said Mr. Thomas , after ho had gene over the burned and water-soaked pa- pera to ascertain whether any of the bank's documents were among them. "All of the records and papers damaged or destroyed were my private property with the excep tion of copies of several reports relative to the Midland's affairs , the originals of which ore on file In the district court. A few of the bank's books received a wetting , but this has not affected their contents.

CONNECTIONS WITH BIG MAINS MADE Superintendent Hunt Moved Promptly to Cnrc for the Arrniinenientn General I'Inti of the Service. Water may bo turned Into the mains o the exposition grounds at any tlm now Mayor Moores attached his elgna turo at an early hour to the resolutlo passed by ihc city council ordering the pay ment of the bills of the Omaha Water com pony. Even before this was done order had been given to the workmen of the watc company and a force of men was on th grounds making preparations to connect th city mains with those on the cxposltto grounds. The exposition mains will bo connected with the city mains at five different point In order to give a complete system of clr dilation. The connection on which worl was first commenced was at Twenty-fourth and I'inckney streets. The big Twenty fourth street main of the water company was tapped at Plnckney street at the tlm work was commenced on the water system of the exposition , and a twelve-Inch pip wag laid to a point Just outside the expo sltlon fence. "A valve was put In atnl point and the pipe ' blocked" to proven damage. The twelve-Inch main of the ex position system extends to within about fit teen feet of this valve , but the trench be tween these twopolnts wasfllled In to proven accidents. All that remained to be done to make the connections with the exposition Hjstom was to put In the fifteen feet o pipe and a meter and open the valve heretofore toforo referred to. Superintendent Hun estimated that this work would require the greater part ot the day and ho went ou to the grounds early to personally ovcreeo the work and cxpcdlto It as much as pos slble. As soon as the work Is complete ! the water will bo turned on. Superintendent Hunt stated that as soon as the connection at Twenty-fourth am Plnckney Is completed , the cntlro exposltloi grounds will bo supplied with the regular flro pressure , but in order to make the sys tem moro complete and satisfactory con nectlons will be made with the exposition system at Twenty-fourth and ilanderson Sixteenth and Plnckney and on Twentletl street at some ppolnt to bo hereafter do termlned. Ho says thia will give complete circulation and would make the exposition system equal to any demand that may be ma do upon It.

"About two years after the assassination of Joseph Smith , the iMorman prophet , the Nauvoo settlement of Latter Day Saints headed by 'Brlgham ' Young , crossed the Mis souri river at this point on Its pilgrimage to the Salt Lake valley , " said C. A. Graham of Carthage , 111. , last night at the Mlllard "This was In 184G and while the 'Mormons ' were camped near Council 'Bluffs an Inci dent occurred which has been relegated to obscurity by the historians who have written about .Mormonlsm. The prophet and his brother , Hiram ISmtth , together with two other prominent Latter Day Saints , bad been arrested In Nauvoo on charges of murder and treason against the government , am : transferred to the county jail at Carthage [ or safekeeping. It was on June 27 , 1S44 , that the mob of enraged Bottlers stormed the Jail and shot the Smiths to death In the cell they occupied. Then the government ordered the Mormons to vacate their strong hold and under the leadership of Young they started across the country- for the west. Whllo they were settled near Council Bluffs ho Mexican war broke out and the United States 'was organizing Its Invading army. Hearing of the trouble Young Immediately sent an agent to the capital with a tender to the president of a battalion of soldiers from among the men of the Mormons. The offer vas accepted and In less than two months hereafter Young's soldiers departed for the Mexican country fully equipped for service and provisioned. They fought valiantly hroughout the war. " "One of the greatest colonization schemes over Inaugurated , " said Ora ' 13. IHunt of 'Balti more last night , "Is that In which John Jacob Astor is Interested. The scheme Is backed by what Is known ns the Valentino yndlcato , which will promote Its Interests n Honduras , to which country Mr. Astor and a party of stockholders are now enrouto. The syndicate has already started a national lank In iHonduras and made many other lin- irovements , as well as taken possession ot be custom house of the government under a guaranty to the latter of $1,000,000 a year * t Is building a railroad which will extend rent the Honduras line to the Pacific coast. The now road has already reached a great offeo belt and there will toe a colony formed here In which every man will have a chance or a fortune. Only steady , practical men vita families will bo taken. To them will > o given concessions as to land , Importation f Implements , etc. , and < beyond this a cer- aln financial aid will bo given , The details f the colonization scheme show a gigantic ilan to populate and develop 'Honduras ' , vhlch will require many years and an Im mense amount of money to carry It out , " "I was In Keddlng , Cal. , about ten ( lays ago , " said James E1. Scovlllo of Seattle , last light , "when the Graves brothers arrived rom their famous Blue Jay mine on Coffee creek with $16,000 In gold dust , U weighed Ixty-ono pounds avoirdupois and was In Its native state , just as it was taken out of the nine. This Is the second strike that has H'cti matlo In the Blue Jay , the first ono > CIIK | made last summer and amounting to IS.OOO.

" " "The Dunkard settlement at Lebanon , 0 , , s one of the most novel and Interesting olonlca in the United States , " eald Edward 3. Elder , of Columbus , yesterday afternoon. 'It numbers about 2,500 men , women and hlldren and la governed by a board ot ruateei selected from among the band.

" "Characteristics andihablts given by gen erations of savage ancestry cannot be eradi cated In a year or two , " said L. 0. Maxwell of Birmingham , Ala. , Inqt night. "No mat ter what Influences' ' govern them , and , not withstanding the teachings of religion and the trounclnga ot revengeful civilization , the natives In the far-off Islands In the moro remote parts of the South Pacific still hanker after the taste of human flesh , and occa sions will occur onceIn A while that cause the veneer of their newly acquired semi- civilization to crack and show the real can nibal that Is hidden beneath. To Illustrate what I mean , I was at one of the Islands of the Solomon Group a year ago for a chance to pick up a cargo of copra for a New York firm by which I waa theft employed. Quito a number of the natives were sitting around dlscuEfllng the proposed trade , when ono of the young men , who had been fooling with a sharp speir , accidentally cut himself with It. The wound was quite serious and bled profusely. Wo tried to bind It up so as to stop the flow of blood , but with poor suc cess. Finally one of the old fellows , speak ing In the native dialect , eald : 'He has stuck himself Hko a pig , now let us eat him like one , ' and we had to carry the unfortunate fellow aboard our schooner to prevent the Christianized fiends from doing It , That same Island Is reported by the missionaries to bo completely civilized and Its Inhabitants aTiTong the moat devout of the converts In that part of the world. " "A gentleman who has been In Cuba ex pressed the belief- shortly after the sinking of the Maine that a large proportion ot the Bailers had Immediately thereafter been swallowed up by sharks , " said Charles D. Pratt of Wheeling , W. Va. , last night. "I am not surprised that nothing happened to confirm his theory. The shark Is a creature made up largely ot appetite and not noted for mental development. Still , It Is not de void ot Intelligence , for It permitted the gen tleman In question to return to this country uneaten. While Its quickness of mental per ception may not 'bo strongly marked , the shark would certainly Intuitively grasp the knowledge that a loud explosion followed by a glare ot fire and a tumult ot waves sug gested the advisability of being somewhere clt'o. It is a safe bet that any sailor who will , to the accompaniment of a large re port , blow himself sky high , can come down with cntlro Impunity from the danger of being swallowed , and that every shark with in a mile will have a tall turned toward the scene and bo leaving a wake like a liner's.

How to prevent this will certainly Interest almost everyone , and especially 'those who have weak lungs. No one need feat- that their cold will result In pneumolna when Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Is used. It counteracts any tendency toward pneumonia and will cure a cold In less time than any other treatment. During the epidemfcs of la grippe a few years ago , many thousands of bottles of It were used , and In not one single Instance did any case result In pneumonia so far as we could learn.
