Tribute to Dr. J. W. Long.
Below we print a clipping from
the Christian Advocute wrtiqh pays
nice tribute to Or J W Long, of
Greensboro, who has many friends
in Randolph county, the countr in
which he was born and in which he
practiced forJ years. Dr Long is
now recognized not only as one of
tbe best physicians aim Burgeons in
North Carolina, but one of the best
in the South:
A PERSONAL W0KU.
On account of the illness of my
kwife, beginning tho last week in
June, my work bait been greatly in
terfered witn. xnis explains my
failure to meet several of the Dis
trict Conferences and my very brief
stay at others, as well as some editor
ial short-comings which I know
have been quite apparent. I am
thankful to be able to announce that
Mrs Blair has passed through the
very delicate operation which was
found necessary and is now on the
road to what is believed to be a per
manent recovery. We are thankful
to God for his mercy, to Dr J W
Long for his skillful surgery, to Dr
Stanley, the consecrated physician in
charge, and a corps of faithful
nurses. Our people, 1 am sure, will
continue to be tolerant of my short
comings and give me their sympathy,
I regret that, for some weeks yet, no
promise of service outside of Greens
boro can be relied upon. But there
is good hope of all being well soon.
This note of explanation I feel to be
duo the readers of the Advocate as
well as myself. - II. M. Bi.aiij.

The Lewis and Clark Centen -
ial and American Pacific Ex
position and Oriental Fair.
''he Lewis und Clark Exposition
commemorates the one hundredth
anniversary ofjthe exploration of the
Oregon country, by an expedition
planned by President Jefferson and
commanded by Captains Meriwether
I At wis and William (Mark. On June
1st 1905 President Hoosevelt pressed
an electric mil ton, in WasuiUL'ton
tlie city from which Ixiwis and Clark
set out, which started the chimes on
the Government building at the
Exposition to playing "America,"
and unfurled the Hugs which pro
claimed the opening of the Centen
nial ruir which celebrates the com
pletion of our march from the
eastern sea to the western. The
Territory then called the Oregon
couotry now includes Oregon, Wash
ington, Idaho and a part of both
Wyoming and Montana, in all more
than three hundred thousand square
miles of good country. It is histor
ically appropriate that their Fair
should come so soon after the
Louisana Purchase Exposition
Thomas Jefferson planned the Lewis
and Ulitrk Expedition before be be
gun negotiations which resulted in
the transferor the Lou isuna territory
from France; and when thut transfer
took place Lewis and Clark were in
St Louis making preparations to
start out to explore the Oregon

Tl'K KX POSITION-.
Our Editorial party arrived
Portland about twilve o'clock. We
found street ears waiting to take
to the Fair grounds which are olIv
about twenty minutes ride fimn the
business part of the city. Arrange
ments had been made fur the party
at thu American Inn the only hotel
inside thu grounds it is on the plan
of the Inside Inn at St Louis. The
exposition grounds occupy 4U2 acres
of land and water, about' equally
divided. Other expositions have been
larger but none have had a more
beautiful eetting. Guild's lake, a
body of fresh water 220 acres in ex
tent, forms about halt the urea, the
peninsular upon which the U S
Government building stands com
prises about sixty acres. Beyond the
peninsula and the lake lies the Will
amette (pronounced in Oregon Will-
um-ette, with accent on the middle
syllable) river and in the distance
four snow covered peaks, Mood,
Helens, Adams and ltanier seem to
rise to the skv line. On the western
side, the verdure clad foot hills of
the Cascades reach down to the fence
which encloses the Fair grounds.
THE (lOVEK.V.MENT llt'I bill Ml.
The United States Government
building as I said is located on the
lenmsula in the center of Guild s
akc. Besides the main Government
building there are several minor
tructures, among them tbe lisbery,
which is off ut one end connected
with the main building by a curved
peristyle. On a tablet in the entrance
from tbe fishery building wits this
inpressive inscription.
To the tieoplo of the great West:
Jefferson Gave You the Country.
Lewis and Clark Showed You the
Way. The Best is Your Own Course
of Empire.
Honor the urave Men wno tore-
saw Your Wost, May the Memory
of Their Glorious Achievements be
Your Glorious Heritage.
The exhibits in tbe Government
building are about the Bame as those
that are usually seen at fairs; the
progress thut has been made in mail
service during the last century is
wonderful. At tho other end or the
Government building are the Irriga
tion and Phillipine and Alaskan
buildings, connected us the lishery
by the colonnades. The Irrigation
mestion an out in tnewest is a very
interesting one and as the Govern
ment has done a great deal along
those lines it seems especially suita
ble thut these is one buildine devot
ed exclusively to Irrigation. Here one
sees representatives of the different
states with the mountains, rivers, de
serts and plains and illustrations of
w but irrigation has done and is still
doing for lands that heretofore have
been worthless.
The Alaskan mid Phillipine Ex
hibits aro combined in one buildiug.
Both have splendid exhibits. The
Government peninsula is connected
with the main exposition grounds by
th "Bridgo of all nations" hulf a
mile long.
THE FOKEBTKY BTILDINH.
All of the main Fair buildings are
in the old Spanish renaissance style
except the Forestry building which
is a true American type and one that
is thoroughly in keeping with the
country in which it stands, being
constructed of huge logs, some six
feet in diameter and 34 feet in
length. These logs were eut from
Orogou forests, rafted down the Col
umbia and Willamette rivers into
Guild's lake and then taken out und
nut in place by machinery. Some of

the logs were brought 75 miles. In
I the construction of this log palace
! primitive met hoits were adhered to as
;eurly as possibly, instead of nails
large wooden pins were used. The
structure is 20ti feet in length by
102 feet in width und its extreme
height is 70 feet, it is the largest
log house in the wold except the one
in lellowstone I'ark, Old raittuul

loirs, It is an exhibit within itself
j but in it are the fihary; game and
forestry exhibits of Oregon. Knstio
stairways and inside balconies run

display of the native woods and the
other products of the forest.
COLUMBIA COt'KT WITH STATUE OF

The uiuin group of exhibit palaces
stand on a plateau overlooking
Guild's lake. They are devoted to
Agriculture, Foreign exhibits, Orien

This group of bit tidings is reached

FINE A UTS lll'ILDINU.
Near the Forestry buildinc is a
small lire proof building containing
exhibits of fine ar's. A friend
kindly gave me a book with numbers
of pictures and I went through the !
palace and Knew what l was seeing, i
The picture that impressed me more I
thau any was Millet's "Man with i
the Hoe," which inspired Markham
to write the poem "The Man With
the Hoc." Millet, in his own words,
tried to depict "tho fundamental
side of men and things" in this
picture. lie certainly succeeded.
Tbe picture is about 18x00 inches;
The man, un European peasant, was
leaning upon his hoe, looking like
the burdens of the world were upon
him; his hair was disheveled, clothes
rugged, suspenders hanging, mouth
open, eyes staring and, better than I
can express "The emptiness of ages
in his face.
Another picture was "Waiting, a

TUB 8ISTINE UADONNA.
Every one admits that Raphael's
painting of the Madonna is the. most
wonderful painting in the world;
from this painting a German girl, i
Fraulein Clara Ripbcrger has em-;
broidered the "Sistine Madonna,";
It is a picture, 21x3 yards and is a
most wonderful reproduction. ;
Raphael's painting is enclosed ia a
glues cabinet in the ttoyul Picture,
Gallery in Dresden. This German :
girl visited the Oallery, looked at the!
picture carried the colors and shad-1
ings in her mind went home and
worked on the piece. This process
was kept up during the time it took
her to do the work which was about
seven years. Clara Ripberger, was
twenty years old when she completed i
this masterpiece. She had never
taken drawing, but has created a!
masterpiece which has won the ad- i
miration of every one who has sees :
it, and has been awarded the Gold :
msdttl at the World's Fair in Pa'ia j
an I the Grand prm at the St Louis ;
Fair. This picture it exhibited in ,
the north west corner of the Foreign
Exhibit building. In this building
are found exhibits frem the foreign
nations. A great many of the ex
hibits are for sale, some being tin
ones- used at St Louis.
The Portland Fair will be con

NOTES AND COMMENTS.
The carrying of concealed weapons
is as a rule a token of cowardioe and
a degraded manhood.
Bulls and bull dogs know ho other
way to obtain mastery over eacn
other ihuu fighting. Some men and
boys aie tho same way.
The charge ia sometimes made
that oflicerg of the luw ure some
times bad men and wink at viola
tions. V here officers ure diligent,
faithful and brave, they can find out
and break up violations of the law.
It is true thut some officers of the
luw do not try to find out or run
down violators of luw; others ure in
different; others are afraid of per
sonal violence, in other words, they
are cowards.
An effort was made to increase the
penalty for carrying concealed weap
ons. It tailed. Thousands carry
concealed weapons and the courts do
not us a rule impose severe enough
puuibhment. It is only now and
then thut anyone is indicted for
currying concealed weapons. Officers
and grand juries need to sec there
are more indictments for this offense.
In the future revenue officers will
dislike Joe Duniels more th-m ever.
The government investigatiou which
is now going on in Western North
Carolina was called for more than a
year ago in both long and short
articles, day in ami day out ranging
over a perind of peverul mouths.
While there ore grounds for com
plaint uguiust some public officials,
yet the majority are honest and up
right, and all they need, is the strong
moral support of good jK-ople in
their efforts to run down evil doers,

Some one made an attempt to enter
the residence of Mr W T Dorsett
last Friday night, but being met
with a bullet from a 32 culibre pis
tol he made a hasty retreut. There
was no one in the house at the time
except Miss Myrtie Gilbert, who is

14 year old son, Alfred. Miss Gil
bert, who wus in the dinning room,
noticed a head pierced through un
open pane in the cook room window.
She immediately informed AUreU ot
what she had seen, at the sane time
leaving the room. Alfred went into
another room, secured a pistol and
made his way slowly to the window
where the alleged man was seen.

The following is from the pen of
a Kentucky editor, a Kentucky
woman being his subject.
Figure it out on a rose leaf aud
write with the brew of a lily that
nowhere under the great, blue dome
is there a creature half bo pretty as
a Kentucky woman. She's prettier
than an evening star in the shadow
of a summer sunset, more inspiring
than a thousand songs, and as be
witching as a fawn tangled in the
vines of a wilderness of rotes. She's
our hont,, our romance, our vine and
fig tree the light which enables us
to see a millioa miles beyond the
North Star.
