lew weeks, all danger Is past that the Cotton
States and International Exposition at Atlanta,
Ga., wiJl not oper. its gates on the
date originally fixed, the 18th of September.
A dispatch to the New York Post says: The
Agricultural, Electricity. Fine Arts, Fire and
jPolice, Negro, Woman's, Transportation.
Minerals and Forestry, and United States
(Government Buildings ?re complete; the
(Manufactures anl Liberal Arts Building i9
tnearly done; the Machinery Building would
have been entirely finished but for a delay
caused by the discovery of a quicksand
tinder the site of the reservoir which is to
contain the water to bo used for running the
machinery; the Administration Building,
which serves the purpose also of a grand
entrance, has its frame pretty well up: and
the Auditorium Building is under roof and
having its sides closed in. As the buildings
still incomplete?except the Machinery
Building?are not essential to the opening,
and as thenecessarv work ontht reservoir
In the Machinery Building is well under
way, the status of the fair as a whole is
highly satisfactory.
Besides the main exhibition buildings already
named there are several others which
are tributary to the general effect, but not
necessary parts of the system, and whose
tardy preparation does no serious harm.
These include the buildings of several of
the States whi^h are to make separate
exhibits, and those of the South American

building finished, except for a few touches
of adornment on the inside. Alabama
la making progress with hers. California
has her lumber drawn to the ground.
New York, Illinois. Connecticut, Massachusetts
and Pennsylvania have their sites assigned
them. Arkansas, Colorado, Florida,
Louisiana, New Jersey, and North and
South Carolina have given up all idea of
separate buildings, and will divide their exhibits
among the several departments of the
lair. In compensation for the absence of
, ?ome small buildings which have been
abandoned, preparations are making for
Borne which were not at first expected.
Notable among these is a very dainty octagonal
building with a spherical dome, now
well advanced towards completion, which is
to contain the exhibit of the Southern Railway
Company, including a collection of
. Elaborate pen-and-ink drawings illustrative
of the world's progress in permanent railway
Architecture.
Ot prime importance, from the point of
view of the exhibitor, is the good fortune of
the Exposition management in securing the
Services of Dr. D. C. Oilman, President of
Johns Hopkins University, to act as Chief of
the Department of Awards. In this case, as
in many others, the management has followed
the wise couise of choosing a chief
whose name will be a guarantee to the
Whole country of the character of his work,
and then investing him with absolute authority
to do what he pleases.
Certain things should be remembered by
everybody who is turning over in his mind
the question of visiting Atlanta during the
coming fair. Often there will be a dlsr\r\oifir?r?

between tbe Cotton States Exposition
and that held at Chicago two years ago.
Six months of steady work failed to exhaust
the treasures at the World's Fair: six
days or even six weeks, left only the impression
of a thirst unslacked. The Atlanta
Exposition is a ten-day show. It will be
complete in all its details, but the details
Will be within the grasp of any one who has
the common American holiday at his disposal.
And as for scenic effect, if it lacks the
arrandeur of the Columbian pageant, it at
least makes no ignoble attempt at an imitation.
It has an individuality and a character
of its own.

THE ELEVENTH CENSUS.
Commissioner Wright Thinks It Can Be
! Completed by the End of the Year.
United States Commissioner of Labor Carroll
D. Wright, who succeeded the Hon.
Bobert ?. Porter as Superintendent of the
Eleventh Census, submitted to the Secretary
pf the Interior the report of the operations
of the census for the fiscal year 1894-5. It
Bhows that the total expense of the census up
to date has been $10,531,142. The force has

neared completion, until now only ninety
persons are employed, and- they form a division
recently made a part of the Interior
Department. All the work can be finished
with the appropriation now available, except
the final printing and binding. The uncompleted
work comprises the population
schedule, vital statistics, a part of the compendium
and the second addition to the abstract
and the statistical atlas.
Mr. Wright is of the opinion that the work
can be completed and placed before the public
by the end of this calendar year. A portion
of the work was turned over to the Pension
Office, which will beof valueto soldiers
in their claims for pensions. Several volumes
containing the names of veterans of
the late war, their services, and present addresses,
will be on file at the Pension Bureau,
where old soldiers can obtain Information
that may aid them in proving their claims.
The Seal# Practically Gone.
Reports received at the State Department,

Jcaily exterminated. The only satisfaction
jthat the State Department gets from this
melancholy intelligence is that it sustains
the contention of successive Secretaries of
State that more stringent regulations than
those which have been in force were necessary
to prevent the entire destruction of seal
. life In Bering Sea.

New Form of Theft Discovered at the Unimlfl_

species of crime which is peouliar to educam
0f tional institutions and particularly to the
king University of Chicago. This is the theft of
rthe an education. The students this summer
nS9? are nearly all transients. Most of them are
l di- gohool teachers who come to acquire new
atoms of knowledge and a general polishing
up in pedagogical methods. The university
charges a tuition fee of $30 a quarter for a
regular course of three majors. For each
additional major subject an additional fee of
;on- $10 is assessed. No student is allowed to
register for more than four and usually not
more than three.
has It has been discovered, however, that many
in- ambitious students have been acquiring
u. h knowledge on an extravagant range of sub?
jects by registering In only one or two
wret courses and taking in a great many more as
visitors. The result was that professors,
) six who had few regularly registered students,
one have been surprised by the spasmodic popu?
the larlty of their courses. In several classes
