ThebWorld’s Exposition.
The time draws near forthe re
ception for the exhibite that have
been prepared in this and other
countries for the World’s Industri
al Exposition. In less than ninety
days everything must be in readi
negs for the grand opening to take
place at New Orleans the first of
December. The Chief of Installa
tion with hig assistants is busy al
lotting space and trying to make
roow for the eleventh hour people,
whe scem to have come to a realizs
ation at last that this is really to
be a World's Exposition on a grand
seato, .
At first it was thought that the
main building, covering 33 acres
of space, would be sufficiently large
to accommodate all exhibitors who
might apply for space. In this cal
culation they were mistaken for it
| was soon found that a conservatory
|must be erceted. Consequently a
Horticulture Hall was put up, the
largest ever built, megsuring 600
by 194 feet. As applications came
in rapidly from nearly all the
States of the Union and the Terri
tories, it was thought best not to
have the Art Gallery in the main
| structure, but to etect a separate
building. This decision led to an i
ron building 80 by 200 teet, for the
proper display of paintings and
sculpture. The Government decid
ed to make an exhibit; and Con
gress voted the sum of $300,000 to
coraplete the undertaking, The
|management then decided to build
an enornous building 885 by space
for 565 feet. Then came Mexico as
king for a grand national display
of her peoducts, but space bemgi
limited, she wisely decided to erect
a huge iron building, costing in‘
connection with the expense of the
exhibit, $200,000, She also.obtained
TtMs&*a’ffi»\ ¢ atres groundy for a
garden devoted to tropical plants.
Still avplications came in for space
from England, France, Germany,
Spain, Itally, Holland, Russia, Chi
na and parts of India, Turkey and
last of all, Liberia announced its
mtention of sending an exhibit
These circumstarices have led the
management to enter into negotia
tion for an additional iren -build
ing 350 feet wide and 990 feet long.
This im connection with several
smaller buildings especially ereet
ed by States, tarvitories or cities
and stables for live stock, com
pletes the catalogue of the build
ings that have been found necessary
‘in order to Fouse the world’s goods
izmd chattles. The miagnitude of the
undertaking has had no parallel in
ithe history of any country, Shortly
}the people from the four corners of
the globe will assemble in one
‘grand congress to pass an opinion
on the word’s progress.—Paulding

Mesmerizing a €oon.
Some two or three weeks ago (as
we are complied to keep bachelor’s
hall for a week) we were lonely in
the highest serse of the word
So one day we closed up and strol
sed down my corn field, and acci
dentally ¥an upon a coon who was
helping himselt to my corn and he
being much indisposed to run and
much disposed to fight, we just
kicked him over and captured him.
We took him by the tail and car
ried him home and built a cage for
him, and ted and watered him un
til Mr«. Plowboy c¢ame home. She
warted him tamed, so she and the
little plowboys could play with
him, Well, now, that’s jtist what,
she wanted to do with him, but
how to do that thing was most per
plexing that we have ever heard.
But, having read a good deal of
mesmerism and zemembering how
one of His disciples entered the
cages of menagerie and subjecting
ofie“of the mostiferocious animals, |
making triein peifectly harmless
we thought eertainly that if (as he
said) every person pogsessed such
a pawer in a grehter or less degree,
BUCHANAN, (iEQRGIAQé?\ZI‘UR.I,)A Y, SEPTEMBER 20, 1884,
we had enough, to tame a little
coon. Sfitding over *@h% for
operating and, practicing npon
£olme inanimutefit our
mind in practice upon one thing
to operate with. Having donc this
for sgome time, indeed u~ntfiw,e had
it in personified perfection. But
the trouble is, we never kn i L what
it centered, but being arm;&- with
that most indispensible point, we
went around to the coon’s quarters
and began operations, first by at
tracting his atfention by a' erack
in the cage and then Ly dffering
shim a peach, which he togk from
our hand through the doss, We
‘next managed to get” hiigsg®. the
tail and he got us by -the tfunb
and then there was a little circus
aeting and slinging of hands ana
we think ourmind was centered on
one thing and that was we thsught
he would eat us up. We hollowed
to Mrs, P. to come and help -get
the thing loose. Meanwhile we
managed to get him to the ground
and put our foot upon his neek.for
getting that there was a holein the
shoe tbrough which our grest toe
protruded. No sooner had we mash
ed his neck than he let loose und
fastened his teeth in the the tdethat
stood out so inviting. Then ive ex
ecuted a series of jigs; but Mr.iCoon
held on like grim death to a} dead
negro. Now Mrs. P. enters mfl are
na, armed with the kitchen tongs,
but kept at a safe distauce, just
near enough to tip his tail with the
weapon, and we could see that she
was laughing-in spite herself. So
‘we told her to hit him on the head
with the tongs, kill him"an(};'stop
laughing. Well, she Dblazed :&sv:\y)
and as might have beeu expected
sne missed the coon’s head and hit
the other toe, then we were obliged
to hollow oh ! and in the tumatt: of
cavorting aros wed Mr. 0 Q%:*ll_l_
aged to make his escape Carnring,
with him about an inch oi skin
from our toc and and now we have
firmly resolvei! that the ndxt time
a coon if to be mesmerized e will
call in an expert. In the future
we'll practics on something that
can’t bite.—Marion Sentinel.

on Wedntscay he shot and killed
a water moccasin in Woodward’s
creek near H. B.Pope’s nearly four

the sr.ake outof the water it was
so large that hobegan to thoronghs

began to show themselves and dart
out their tongues and show ' fight,

Norrig, the hisband, was -a b‘c;

is a very strong woman, successful

trial for the henious offense. Teel
is considerad a vagrant, and has a
wife and children elsewhere, who
were forced to quit hini, his wife
going back to ber family. There
was congiderable excitement over
it here and some talk of lynching
Teel, but other counsels prevailed.
Teel will be recollected as the man
who wrote a letter to Goveruor Me-
Daniel a week ago asking him 1o
get a divorce from his wife, ag he
was in a “tarnal hurry.”

In pernsing the Basxer I finda
piece to girls for wearing = Langs.
1 do positively assert that every
girl show:d wear her hair just as
she pleages, You never hear us
saying anything about what the
gentlemen wear, for we don’t think
it is our basiness, and we don’t
think it is your business how we
comb our hair or how we dress.
You don’t have our bangs to wear,
and we don’t have your bottle and
cards to carry; =o I think it will
keep you busy if you will keep
your pockets darned up where the
bottles have cut them ; (or perhaps
your poot wife or sister has that
to do for you.) You will come
home drunk and whip your heart
broken wife, and pull her hair. If
she has no bangs you will make
sonte by pulling her hair—but
that is nothing (?)—the men do
that—but let a girl do as lLittle a
thing as banging her hair, aud you
will ind it ih unearly every paper

miles of North Platte and South
Platte rivers: 1t is six riles from

miles from North Platte to Tel

is very level, mostly botiom land.]
There is a range es hills between
the rivers, & valley being on each,
river from.l to 3 miles in. width.
This valley land is mostly hay
land, while the hills are covered in’
Buffalo grass, which is the best of
grazing for cattle in the fall and
winter. The hills are also of great
use for wind-bizaks and shelter,
for cattle in wiutcr. Thirty miles
weet of North Plate city is a beau
tiful table land covered in short
grass, which lies between the riv
ers, and gets wider s the rivers
get further apart. ‘ihe soil of this
divide, as it is usually called, is
generally of a dark I¢am and very
productive. This country 20 years
ago was covered - with huffalo, deer,

the railroads eanic through and.
opened up this great country, the
