Stages OF Architecture.

America is to-day in the second
stage of national architecture. In this
stage the general idea is in the fineness
Of the materials used. The nation still
wants big things, but they must be
made of the finest marbles and tho
most highly polished woods. The third
stage in which fineness Of material and
grandeur OF size are combined in har.
monious artistic beauty America has
not yet reached. All OF our public
buildings are like the works of q pauper
who has suddenly become millionaire.
Money is thrown around profusely and
extravagantly. more for the sake Of
showing that the man has money than
for the accomplishment Of any beauti-
ful end. Look at our public buildings

Playing With Fire.

A correspondent of the Cincinnati
cana, the center of one of the West
Virginia oil regions, gives this bit Of
curious local history:
Five or six years ago terrible cal
amity visited Volcano. OF course, in
place where large stores of the light
or grad of petroleum-whether crude
or retined-is kept in bulk, there is al.
ways great danger of fire, but long inn
munity from trouble of that kind lulled
the people into feeling of security.
An ingenious person. James M. Fry by
name, noticed this, and determined to
rouse the snorting citizens. as it We're,
So he kindled conilagration. This, by
active personal efforts, he succeeded in
extinguishing, and then posed as hero
the first discoverer of the fire and the
savior of the village. This little ruse
was successful, and, as reward for his
vigilance, Mr.. Fry was appointed Fire
Waterman, with apparently nothing to
do but loaf about, draw good salary,
and accept invitations to drink from
his numerous admirers. After while
these attentions began to wanc, and
Mr.. Fry proceeded to tread once more
his pleasing but perilous path to popu-
larity. This time his success in kind
ling the fire was marked, but not SO the
putting out thereof 1t 49, a calm
morning, not a breath of wind stirring,

fluids, crude light petroleum, were at

burning oil spread. spluttering and

In st. Louis new boulevard pave
ment of prepared gumwood is being
tried on Chestnut street. After the
roadbed is dug out and rolled layer
of concrete is put down and coated
with sand. This is glazed with coal
tar, on which tive-inch gumwood blocks
are set upright with an ordinary lath
between the rows at the bottom to sep
arate them. This space is filled part
way up with coal tar, and the balance
of the way with sand and gravel, and
is rammed in compactly. This pave
ment is firm, elastic, and comparatively
uoiseless, but costly.
