which is new departure from the style OF
building that has 10 long prevailed in our
city. In il general features il j. similar To
many handsome residences that are now
being erected in the principal cities
throughout the country. The most at
trac.iye point OF this style is in the
handling OF the roof, which is most pie
turesque. and j. made to be seen and ad
mired. and not H. in the Hat roof-a thing
of conjecture.
These ,tccp-pitch roofs are covered with
slate, the most durable covering, and the
neutral tint of which aids materially in
toning down the red glare OF the brick
walls. This style has the great beauty Of
individuality and admits OF infinite variety
in design; certainly q most desirable char
acteristic, when we remember the seeming
intermnable long line Of blocks for which
some Of our larger cities are noted.
We can but welcome this departure i'm

induced 10 follow the example. The de-
Sign referred 10 above il from the pencil OF

AN AFFECTING INCIDENT.-Last week,
while Capt. John S. Wise was stopping in
SLaunton, for brief time, he visited the Deaf
and Dumb and Blind Institution. While there
he learned of the sad accident which befel the
two little deaf mutes. Akers brothers, one of
whom was killed and the other had his leg
broken, and otherwise injured. The living
child is in the Institution under the treatment
of DR.. Shelton, the physician to the Instltu-
ton. Hearing the little sufferer spoken of,
Capt. Wise said he would like to see him.
When he entered the room, where the boy lay,
he was so moved by sympathy for the pros
trate and helpless child, that he kissed him,
and after conversing few moments with him
in the sign language, passed into his hand
a piece of money, and again kissing him, left
with the warm, tender leY'qAsq tions of the heart
swelling INTO his countenance. Such is the
man. John Sargent Wise, whatever may be
thought Of him by his opponents as a politi-
clan.
