The Largest in the World.

The New Orleans Custom House,
the largest in the world, was begun
in 1913; has cost 81, 10000, and is
not done yet. The massive walls
are of Quincy granite, and the in
terror is finished in marble. 1t has
one hundred rooms, with nearly
fifty miles of pipe all kinds, and is
supplied with water from four tanks
in the attic, each holding thirty-fve
thousand gallons. The height of
the structure from pavement to
cornice is eighty feet, but the plan
for it's completion contemplates a
mansard roof, which will, with the
added story, make the general ele-
walton ninty-seven feet. The pro-
posed dome, which is to be square
in form, will be fifty-nine by forty
nine feet on the sides, with height
of forty-one feet so that the total
outside elevation to the top of the
lantern on the dome will be one
hundred and eighty-seven feet

Curious and Lucky.

The Lexington Local Leader re-
lates a curious incident: On Mon
day of last week John Whitney, who
lives on the old McDougal place,
near the Livingston County line,
being out of wood, took his ak and
felled an old dead oak tree, which
stood in the road in front of the
house. The tree, which was hollow
to the fork, fell with a tremendous
crash, and from cut the top rolled a
closely knotted ball of snakes, of all
colors and sizes, and all in coma
tose state. But this was the least
remarkable thing which was discov-
cred by the falling of the tree. Mr..
Whitney, in removing the trunk dis
covered white lead can, the top of
which was closed with a piece of
sheet iron. He at once forced off
the cover and found the can to be
filled with specie-some gold pieces,
but mostly silver. Taking his
"fnd" tothe house he found that it
amounted to s415. In the bottom
of the can was found a folded page
of the Chicago Times bearing date
1861. 1t is not definitely known
how the money came there, but it is
supposed to have been placed there
by McDougals father.

THE SENAToRsHIP.-If the Avoca
correspondent to the Dodgeville
Chronicle who urges the nomination
of O. p. Underwood for State Sem
ator, represents that gentleman's
version of the subject of re-district-
ing we are opposed to him,
The correspondent says Sin any
case the plan Of re-districting will
probably be about the same as
the plan marked out by the last
legislature" To that plan, and to
the nomination Of any man favoring
it the TRIBUNE is unalterably OPP
posed, and we believe decided
majority of the people Of this coun-
ty share our sentiment. That plan
proposes Iowa county shall have but
l. members in the Assembly, where
as her population of 24.60O entities
her to two members according to
all rules suggested OF applied in re-
districtiug other parts of the state.
Being associated with Richland
county as a Senatorial district, Iowa
county having three-ffths of the
population is under-represented in
the Senate, to compensate which,
under the rule applied in redistrict-
ing, we should have correspond
ing credit if practicable, in the AS
sembly. For the information of
such as the Chronicle correspondent,
we will undertake to demonstrate
by figures this proposition:
In round numbers, the population
of the state is 100000. This pop
ulation is to be represented in the
Senate by 33 members, and in the
