The organ made by the Roosevelts for
the cathedral built by the widow of A. +.
Stewart at Garden City, l.. l., is the most
extensive instrument of the kind in the
world 1t has 10 stops and 20! pipes.
and st 100000 Most of it is set in AN
ocla"onal chamber made by the angle
where the transept and chanccl walls Join
fifteen feet in diameter and extending
from the basement floor upward to dis.
lance of forty feet. y remarkable feature
is lis construction so as to distribute the
sounds in four different parts of the
cathedral at once, all remaining under
control OF the player at the main organ.
The four divisions are classified as fol.
lows: hanCcL nftyfour stops tower.
thirty eight stops; chapel, fifteen stops,
echo, eight stops.
Steam power is employed in initiating
the bellows T!.cre are double engines of
ten horsepower beneath the chanccl Iii
vision TO supply it with compressed ar.
and the speed is go erned, as far as pos
sble, by the rise aud fail of the bellows
In the room beneath the vc.tibule, di,
rectly under the tower division, is sin
gle engine of ten horsepower. The
greatest novelty is the electric chime
action, by which thirteen bells in the or
gan tower are played from the solo man.
uaL The bells are rung with the same
force and precision as though struck in
usual manner, and may be rung in con.
nection with the music that is played on
the organ. The organ cases, made in
Philadelphia, are magnificent specimens
of carving in decorated English Gothic
protusely enriched.

The Power OF Abstraction.

According TO one of his friends,
Victor Hugo wrote "Notre Dame" dur
ing the Revolution of 1880, while bullets
were whistling across his garden and
barricades were being erected almost
at his door. ale shut himself up in
one room, locking up his clothes lest
they should tempt him to go into the
streets, and spent the whole OF that
Winter wrapped up in ing gray COM
forter writing against time to complete
his work by the 1st of February, 1881"
The author of n work on French politi-
cal leaders tells us that Victor Hugo
wrote that terribly pathetic drama lie
Roi S'Amuse," during the resurrection.
The first act was written in four days.
AS he lived near the Tuileries Garden,
he was accustomed to walk there under
the trees, and to compose his verses as
he walked. One day when hard at
work on monologue, he was inter-
rupted by a riot, whose angry waves
penetrated almost to his peaceful re-
treat and compelled him to take refuge
in neighboring arcade. The tide of
battle followed him, and the poet, for
getting his verses, had to get behind
some columns for protection. Mrs.
Somerville had, to some extent, the
same power of concentration, and be-
came so absorbed in her task as to be
unconscious of what was going on
around her. DR.. Somerville told Har-
riet Martineau that he once laid a
wager with friend that he would
abuse Mrs. Somerville In loud voice
to her face and she would take no
notices, and he did so. Sitting close to
her he confided to his friend the most
injurious things-that she rouged, That
she wore wig, and other such non
sense, uttered in a very loud voice.
Her daughters were in roar of laugh
ter, while the slandered lady sat placid
ly writing. At last her husband made
dead pause after her name, on which
she looked up with an innocent, "Did
you speak to mep"-AH the Year

Crocker's Fence.

Crocker's fence is one of the sights
of San Francisco. When Charles Crock
er, the partner of Stanford, Hopkins,
and Huntington, of the Central Pacific
Railroad and man worth many mil
lions, bought his residence on Califor-
MIA street he met with considerable OPP
position from property-holder on
Sacramento street. Croker had &C.
auired the entire block, with the.e
ception of a single lot on the Sacra-
mento street side. The owner OF this
lot demanded an extra price for it,
which Croker agreed to give. Then
the price was doubled, and Croker &C
cepted the raise. Again and again was
the avaricious seller satisfied, until pa
thence ceased to be virtue. The rail-
road magnate got his mad up and sent
word: "Tell him to -" Croker
built his house, laid out the grounds
with rare good taste, and then 'fenced
in" his co-tenant on the block. He
built fence fifty feet high on three
sides of the house on Sacramento street
Only the front view remained unim
paired, and, as Sacramento street II
very narrow, the front view Is not {
matter to care much for. The owner
of the house soon sickened Of his bar

Incrense OF Cancers.


From reliable data it is estimated that

deaths from cancer in this city, and In
1879, 572 deaths from the same cause
In 1880 the deaths by cancer had increas-

two deaths daily. During these fourteen
New York city. All'the other large cit.
les in the United States exhibit the same
startling progress Of the disease, while
the report Of the registrar general in
Great Britain shows an increasing prev.
alence Of malady in that country. Ac.
cording to tho statistics of the health
department of tho city of Baltimore,
there we're seven deaths from cancer In
that city in 1880, and 172 from the same
cause, in 1864A During this period the
population had increased five fold, and
che deaths from cancer twenty six fold.
The association Of skin disease and
cancer in the same institution is based
upon the reascA chat in many instances
cancor attaci the skin alone, or appears
on or beneath the skin and afterward
affects the organs, and that by th- 'nion
OF skin diseases and cancer many sons
may be led to seek relief long before the
case would be recognized as cancer either
by the patient or by many physicians.
A further reason is found in the hope
thai something may yet be done for can.

tion. To aid thfsys,a prize fund has
already been established to stimulate
research in this direction. The cause Of
the disease Is not known. The accepted
theory in England attributes it to maIa-
ria. The most that can be said respect.
Ing this hypothesis Is that 1t is not prov
