Height Of the Tower Of Babel.

The reputed height Of tbs structure
has at times been greatly exaggerated,
some Jewish authorities fixing il at
twelve miles and Jerome quoting con-
temporary assertions for its being four
miles high. These estimates, how
ever, give way 10 the sober testimony
Of Strabo, who states the height at 600
feet which is the figure generally ac-
cepted. The distinction of forming the
remains of the tower Of Babel has been
claimed for three masses of ruins in or
near Babylon; but the majority Of
competent antiquarians have declared
in favor of Birs Nimroud, which stood
in Borsippa, a suburb Of Babylon,
eight miles distant from that city. Sir
X. X. Porter showed that the summit
had been exposed TO intense vitifying
heat which must have been the result
Of fire operating from above, probably
in the form Of lightning, thus con-
firming the tradition Of its destruction
by fire from heaven. Sir H. Il. Raw
linson discovered that il consisted OF
seven stages of brick work on an
eerthen platform, each stage being of
a different color. Its ruins still rise
l53 feet above the level Of the plain.
According 10 Herodotus the tower of
Babel was adorned by colossal images
and statues of solid gold, the value of
which he rated at twenty-one millions
sterling. probably as great an exaggera-
ton OF their worth as twelve miles
was of the height of the structure

Loffa Crabtree's AGE.

A prominent Federal office holder
was walking up Broadway some days
ago when he passed Miss Lotta Crab
tree. Isn't Il a pity" said be, shat
that clipper young woman, In whose
cheeks you see no wrinkles, whose
brown eyes, fresh with the light Of
genuine youth, and whose step is as
agile as a fawn's, should be saddled
WITH the stigma OF old age-for it is
stigma TO professional women-only
because she was an infant prodigy and
went on the stage in her early yearsf
The statements recently printed about
Lotta's owning up TO 40, and being in
reality 46, are amusing 10 people who
have known her nearly all her life, as
I have. knew her father for aquar-
ter of a century and was familiar with
the estate he left Mrs. Crabtree, in
government bonds, for Lotta. In 1879
/ was present at the transfer of these
bonds from Mrs. Crabtree TO Lotta, the
former stating 10 me then, as the rea-
son for the assignment: My daughter
is now OF lawful age Lotta's exact
words on that occasion were: i have
now become Of age, and / agree with
mamma that il is best / should
take control OF my estate That
makes Lotta exactly Bs years old now.
and TO that age / am willing to make

A Senator's Plant.
He Resigns Because He Can't
Keep up With the Procession
on His Salary.
TROUBLE AHEAD,
An Impending strike by L. S. Senators

An Impending strike by L. 5. Senators.
WASHINGTON, March lS.-The
resignation of Senator Chace upon the
threshold o. his second term has
aroused renewed interes. in q subject
that Is bound to receive early and ear
nest consideration in congress. Sena-
tor Chace, In private, gives 90 the r.s-
SOD why he can no longer serve as q
legislator that the compensation of a
senator Is not sufficient to warrant
him in longer neglecting his business.
He is one of the largest cotton manu-
facturers In New England. The
question of increasing the compeasa-
ton of congressman has been receiv-
ing the earnest attention OF senators,
especially, of late, and there seems to
be an overwhelming seLtiment among
them In favor of making the salary of
congressman $40, 900 year, instead of
81, 600 as at present. The members OF
the house Of Representatives, while
thoroughly in sympathy with the SEN
ators on this point are not YET ready to
go the full length desired by them,
fearing a repetition of the outbreak of
censure visited upon the congress of
1878 for It's action on the salary ques.
tlon, but it is argued by the advocates
of increased salary that wbst the peo-
pie were 20 indignant about then was
the back pay grab, and If an increase
were made to date from the end OF the
fifty.first congress, no serious opposi-
ton would be made TO it. There was
9 frank expression of views by sena.
tors on this topic in one Of the secret
legislative sessions last week, In the
discussion that ensued upon the intro
duction of resolution by Senator
Teller, authorizing the secretary of the
senate 10 pay to committee clerks serv-
ing on per diem basis during the
session Of the senate and the clerks to
senators during the coming recess. the
per diem allowed by law. Teller pre-
vious TO presenting the resolution,
which was referred to the committee
on contingent expenses, said In bis
experience as chairman Of O committee
he had been compelled at times to
employ two men to attend to the cor.
respondence devolving upon him, and
II was Q heavy burden upon him. He
believed the senators should have an.
nual clerks, because their duties did
not cease with the adjournment of the
senate.
