For each has a soft spot In hts heart

Their tcudorcr feelings center In

AN ESQUIMAU ILLUMINATION.

Esquimau often has to wait three or four
weeks before 1t is fit for building. As
II gets too cold in their summer seal

natives generally build preliminary
houses of ice. which, singularly MS it
may seem, are much warmer than tho
tents, but not rs comfortable rs the
houses Of snow. When tho leo has
formed to about six inches in thickness
on somo lake close by, they cut out
their big slabs of leo for the sides OF tho
house Imagine an ordinary-sized
house.door to be slab of ice about six
inches thick; then take half.dozen to
a dozen Of these doors, and place them
in circle. joining them edge TO edge,
but leaning in slightly. and You will

Over this circular pen of icc-which

A Terrible Nuisance,

The city authorities are now eng aged
in cleaning out Stallcup Run, run
ming down the rear of the lots on the
west side of Poplar street between Sec
ond and Third streets. Instead of hav.
ing the refuse matter carted away it
was thrown upon the bank, where 1t
festered in the hot sun onTuesday until
it fl lied the whole atmosphere with q
noxious and unpleasant efiiuvia. Some
idea may be Obtained of the nuisance
from the fact that the blood and offa
from Hart's slaughter houses, at Fifth
and Poplar streets are dumped into this
sewer. The stuff ought to be carted
away inclose wagons without delay
and not left fostering on the bank.

Personal Memoirs of Gen. Grant


The most notable and interesting
book of the day. This is the first book
ever written by any of the World q
great military chieftains. General Grant
was the foremost figure in the greatest
military struggle of modern times, and
will go into history as one of the or at
est warriors of any age. He, beyond
any other living person, can accurately
describe the circumstances of the great
four years struggle for the preservation
o. the Union. Every soldier now living
and every citizen is deeply interested To
read General Grants own book, and
therefore the book is calculated to have
a SAFE unprecedented in the history of
books.
There is an intense public sympathy
felt for General Grant, because of the
greatness of his services and his present
critical condition, and this sympathy
and feeling is likely to be greatly i'll
| tensitied by his becoming suddenly
worse. Rarely il ever has any man
had such hold as he now has upon IL q
public heart, and the sale made under
| these circumstances must inevitably
exceed anything ever known in the
book business.
The Importance of General Grants
uOoh anu iJS pidco III tHe llterature Ol
the world may be Judged by the esti-
mate OF General Grant personally, as
shown by his receptions, and the ova
lions heaped upon him by all the great
generals, statesmen, kings and rulers
of the other nations of the earth at the
time of his trip around the world. 1t
is book that should have very much
larger sale than any work ever before

have uniforms made fer the men whom
he would appoint on hts police force
The witness asked him il he had been
10 see any other clothier, and he said
he had not, as he wished him to make
the uniforms.
The witness told him that az he had
placed that much confidence in him he
would make them much cheaper, and
after showing him some cloth, agreed
to make them at $15 each. The men
came in and were measured, and took
their suits away. One man alone paid
for his suit, and Chief Hawkins after
wards paid the witness $462 80, leaving
a balance of $l37.5 This first pay
ment was made in October, 1888.
The witnesses produced a small book
containing the account with j. 2. w ales
VIII ch he claimed was book of origi.
nal entry, but as 1t only contained the
charges for these uniforms, Mr. Bird
claimed that it was not book of origi.
nal entry and could not 60 to the jury
as such. Tae Court, however, ruled
different, and decided tn 1t it was ad.
missable.
The witness then continued, and said
that he had written to, and also called
upon DR.. Wales in reference to this
balance, and he said he did not hold
himself responsible for the uniforms,
that he city allowed a certain amount
for this purpose, and that each man
must pay for his own. Mr.. Macallister
read two letters that had been sent to
the witness by DR.. Wa es, in which he
spoke about the money being in bank,
and that he could draw it as far as it
would go by calling on the Chief OF
Police.
On cross-examination by Mr.. Bird,
he said that some of the men had offer.
ed to pay, if he would give them in.
dividual receipts, which he refused to
do, as he considered that If he should
do that, 1t would release DR.. Wales
He however told those who applied in
that way, that if they would bring a
note from Mayor Wales, he would give
a receipt, stating that the man had paid
for a uniform onMayor Wales account.
One day while the witness was in Phil
adelphia one of the officers came in and
paid the clerk for his uniform, but If he
had been there himself he would not
have received it. At6 o'clock Court
took recess until 10 O'Clock this morn,
