A Toy Industry Festival. ; A remarkable token of tho importance 'of the toy industry in the ancient city of Nuremburg is afforded by the great gathering in one of the public hails at a banquet in celebration of the completion of the threc-hundred-thousandth model steam engine by a well kuown maker. Among the guests were the heads of the municipality and of several industrial and commercial corporations. The little model which marks this stage in the toy making industry of the Nuremberg firm was constructed with the latest improvments. It was adorned with a laurel wreath, and exhibited in Jhe hall aide by side, in order to show the progress in construction, with a model of the date 1815. It is said that this faotory alone has also turned out more than 325,000 m>Wif> lanterns.?London Qptiniaa.

Thou, and to bis relief, ho saw it was a girl, and the revolver he had drawn for defence was slid back uuobscrved into his pocket. A chance dash of the sinking sun fell upou her, and his mental photograph was correct, if almost instantaneous. Her age, he decided, was under twenty years, her figuro remarkable for litheuess, her face for its sallow-whitenesS and large eyes (the color he could not determine), as luminous as those of some feline animal. Her bonnetless head was covered with a profusion of dark, short curls, tangled and untrained and but little cared for. Her feet, were bare and brown, as were hands and complexion. | Her dress was fashioned without regard to taste, fitting, becomingness?to any.; tbing but the decency of life. It was of the yellow-brown homespun common in the locality. There was shrinking timidity ir her voice?one so sweetly modulated and musical as to instantly find its way attractively to the ears of Everleigh when, with a sigh of relief, she said "I am glad you have come, have waited since noon for you, and my uuclc will be very angry at my staying so long." ' Been waiting for me?" he repeated questioningly and in amazement. "Yes, but I was told not to talk. Dismount. You will have to lead yo ir hor6e. I will show the way." "The way? Wliat wav? Where aro you going to take me?" "To those with whom you appointed a meeting." With the spirit of adventure strong, and believing himself able to cope with any danger that might arise, Everleigh followed his strange guide along dubious paths. But vainly he endeavored to gatn any information as to where she was leading. "You know more than I can tell," she replied when urged until she could no longer remain silent, "and it is a shame that one so young and?" she hesitated for a moment and then added, "so handsome, should engage in so dangerous and disgraceful business." "'As what?" Her lips remained sealed. He briefly related the object of his journey, lnsisteu that she judged him wiougly and urged her to turn back and put him upon the right road to cross the mountains. "It is too late," she answered, and he fancied the words were regretfully uttered and the pressure of her hand more warm aud strong. "We have already passed two of the lookouts, though you saw them not, and I daro not go back." "But what," ho questioned a trifle anxiously, "will be my fate if I stumble upon any dangerous secrets and am looked upon as a spy?" "Unless you can prove true the story you have told me you may never look upon home or those you love again." "Death! Aud what will become of you?" "I know not, care not, and I would welcome death as the greatest of blessings." "Then those you live with are?" "Hush!" and she whispered impressively: "I have often thought tho very rocks listened. But those I live with are only distantly related to me. The war left me without father or brother, as 1 had loug been motherlcsss.

To all appearances it nas uninhabited, was far from any habitation and when Everleigh first looked upon it he fancied only by win^s could ! its depths be reached. Rude steps, hall | nature, half art, however, eased the way. The girl traversed them rapidly, but | <>nce pausing and then to whisper in the J ear of Everleigh as he questioned with regard that dashed out as from a solid ledge of rocks. ' Not a word, not a whi*par. Men whoee rifles never miss their aim are watching, and the wild cats of the/ mountains have not keener hearing oi sight." "A nest of robbers I And you were -cut out a beautiful temptation to lead me directly into their power. May ooa forgiveyou if any harm comes tome, for my innocent blood will be upon your soul," he answered, end then the hand she preesed upon his lips stifled speech. A moment later he wee surrounded by half a dozen savage looking armed men, and he who acted as leader sternly demanded: '"What brought you "here!" It needed no explanation for Everlelgh (o understand that they were engaged in illicit distilling; were of the worst and most revengeful class of "moonshiners." There was sufficient evidence around and he knew how desperate they were and how little they scrupled at taking life when discovered; how every stranger was looked upon as an internal revenue officer and a spy. In as few words as possible he told hie situation; that his coming was the result of accident and mistake; that he had no deoire to Jearn anvthintr of their secret* and regretted as much as (hey COtfRI nil oeing among mem. Then the leader turned fiercely upoq the girl, who stood pale and trembling, and brutally cursed her for her stupidity. "1 did just as I was told," she answered sullently and avoiding a blow aimed at her head. The man sprang toward her with angry face and clenched fists. But Everleign was before him, shielded the girl with his own bcdy and exclaimed. "For shame to strike a girl, and one innocent of any wrong." "Better look to yourself," was growled. "When I have settled with her we will attend to you." "You will do her no harm while 1 live," answered the prisoner firmly, and the glittering barrel and sharp click of a revolver emphasized his words. It was a brave action, but of little avail. The men behind seized, disarmed, threw him to the ground and laughed at his unavailing struggles. Ha saw, how ever, and gladly, that tho girl had escaped and was standing upon the rocki high above thorn. With their ever violent tempers inflamed by deep draughts of their own unlawful distilling and the appearance of a stranger, they again turned upoq Everlcigli and questioned him closely. His words bore the stamp of truth; he disavowed any iaclidation to visit them, to learn aught of their secrets; protested against being looked upon as an official' spy. His hold front staggered them. They hesitated about doing violence,consulted together, and his release was almost assured when one more suspicion mooay-mmaeu man nis companions came to tho front with "Dead men tell no tales. He has learned the way here,could guide others, would recognize us and?" "I will promise, will swear never to say a word ot what I have seen and heard," interrupted the prisonor, realizing how absolutely he was in theii power. "Humph! A roan will promise anything when a rope is around his ucck. The law is death to spies." "That a vote must decide," said the leader, and he motioned to one of the youngest of the band. The ballot was final, if primitive. An old straw hat,containing white and black beans,was passed around, each taking a couple. Then an empty hat received their votes?for life or against it?and the counting showed that the dark ones far outnumbered the white. "That meaus death!" said the leader to Everloigh. "I am sorry, for I believe you innocent, but?" "When am I to bo butchered in cold blood?" questioned the prisoner, determined to meet his fate a9 became a man. "Now!" vaiucijr uau m? uiuiuciuui num ucou spoken before a peculiar whistle floated down on the hills. It was instantly followed by a flash of bright red flame. "Tho bloodhounds of the law an upon us!" shouted the leader. "Tak< care of yourselves. No, nol" as rifle were pointed at the prisoner, "that will never do. Out with the fire I Out witl the torches! Let them break their neck in the darkness. "We know the way. Silence, and every man to his home as quickly as possible." Almost instantly upon their departure . the girl was at the side of Everlelgh, cut away the ropes that fastened him and whispered; ' There is no enemy coming. The] little thought I knew the signal. Now we must run for our lives. The trutl will quickly be found out, and if found you will be murdered." 'And you?" 'No matter about me. I was tbi cause of your trouble and will save yoi or?"

FARMERS AT TflE FAIR. ??? le THE AQRICU^TUBAX EXHIBIT AT C THE a BEAT SHOW IN OKXOAOk). ti ???? w It Will Far Exceed All Previous DU- 01 play*, and Will Teaoti Lewou* of P: Inoalonlable Value. It THE Agricultural exhibit at the World's Fair in Ohioago, it it , believed, will be studied with P greater interest and by more u. peoplo than will almost any other division ^ bf the great Exposition. Millions are . engaged in raising or dealing in agricultural products, and every one is a con- ? turner of them. Recognising this, the . Exposition management has provided 11 accommodations and facilities for tnls exhibit which dwarf suoh provision made at any world's fair. * The Agricultural building, an impos- * ing and beautiful structure,, situated across the main lagoon, southward from 04 the great Manufactures building, is 01 rapidly approaching completion, and 11 will be finished even to all details of *) ornamentation, before October 1st. It " measures 500 by 800 feet, and has an h 'Annex 300 by 550 feet, and a connected c< Assembly Hall, which has a seating '? capacity of 1500. Close by on the south is the Dairy building, measuring 100 by 18 200 feet. - * The northern portion of the main D floor of the building will be occupied ' Jy the agricultural and other food ex- ^ ibits of foreign Nations, which, it is already assured, will be extensive. Occupying nearly all of the remainder I of the main floor will be the exhibit of cereals and other farm products from the States of the Union. Every State and n Territory, it is expected, will be repro- 11 seated by its products. Thus, upon this r< one vast floor, covering nearly ten acres, will be displayed in all their variety and = "perfection the pick of the farm productq fof the world. It is believed that the exJhibit made by this country, naturally exceeding that of any other in extent, wil) attract great attention, also, by reason of Jits exceptional merit, and the comprehensive information that will accompany <" I This great exhibit, or rather array of 'exhibits, will be made and arranged iq such a systematic manner that tho visitor, almost at a glance, can tell not oniy the 'appearance of each object, but what it Jis, where it enme from, and "all aboul It." For undor tho regulations adopted for the department, Chief Buchanan requires that each exhibit shall be accompanied with the following data Name of object, name of producer, where grown, character of soil, date of planting, quality of seed planted per acre, mothod of cultivation,date of harvesting, yield per acre, weight, price of product {at | nearest market, average teulpcmture land rain or snow fall by months between planting and harvesting, and whether of not irrigation was employed. On the six acres of flooring in the Annex, which is virtually an extension of that of the main building, will be shown every description of agricultural machinery, including sot only the be3t an<| most improved now in use, but such as will illustrate the progress of the industry from primitive times to the pveseut. In the great galleries of the building, which are most novel in construction and perfect in point of availability, will be located on the north front the wool exhibit; on the west ond the apiary diswhich will include working ?Monies of bees; on the south Tront the airy implements, and on the great central sections tho exhibit of the brewing and tobacco industries, and the wealth of magnificent exhibits of flours, meals, bread, pastry, sugars, confectionery, canned goods, oils, soaps, chocolates, etc. One of the most novel, instructive and elaborate exhibits, and one that will undoubtedly attract the attention of every scientific person and scholar interested in any phase of agricultural life, will ba that made by the Association of American Agricultural College and Experiment Btations. This exhibit will occupy nearlv 8000 sniiarn fw>t of ??? ! j - 1 ? - ?UV I will be located in the southwest corner* of the building on the first floor. It will represent the entire work of a model Agricultural Experiment Station, covering entirely the field of experiment and research in crops, botany, horticulture, entomology, feeding stutls, animal nutrition, dairy solids, milk testing and veterinary science, and will include an f elaborato and complete botanical biologi- n cal and chemical laboratory. o > In addition to this, the agricultural ' 'colleges of the United States will have, in this space, a combined exhibit graphically illustrating the work and special field covered by each college. This entire exhibit is not only unique, but is something that has never been accomplished or attempted at any previous exposition. Outside the building will be shown eeveral magnificent exhibits, put up at n great cost, 01 me irrigation systems 01 the great West, On the lagoon just south of the Annex to the Agricultural building will be installed traction and portable engines and a wonderfully interesting exhibit of wind-mill machinery. Connected with the Agricultu J An nex by a short walk will be the Dairy building in which will be shown dairy products, and in which will be conducted during the entire period of the Exposition the Dairy School. Here will be conducted practical dairy tests for determining the relative value of different breeds of cattle as milk and butter producers, and of methods of feeding. The records end nunlU of fhia nr-knol nn. questionably, will bo of lasting benefit to tho dairy interests of the United States and of the world.

A particularly bad counterfeit waa deleted at the Sub-Treasury, in New York ity, the other day. It is the produoon of a pen-and-ink artist, who did his ork so well that tho bill passed through iii of the city bauks without any suaIclon arising as to its genuineness. At to Sub-Treasury its character was at acc discovered. The counterfeit is of $50 greenback. The operator first hotographed a genuine bill, getting a ght picture but sufficiently distinct to id him in subsequent proceedings, hen he went over the photograph, with ik, turning out a marvelously fine piece t work. The coloring is excellent, the' ettign clearly reproduced, and the letterig far more accurate than is usually the iso. The paper is good and has almost le right "feel."
