The Handsome Studebaker Mansion Goes
Up in Smoke.

up IN Smoke.
SOUTH BEND (Ind.), October 9th.-The
magnificent stone house of Glenn Stude-
baker, which cost about $500, 900, was
almost entirely destroyed by fire this morn
ing. The residence was one of the largest
and costliest in the West. rhe interior
was finished in the costliest of native and
foreign woods, while it was furnished in
the richest style throughout, and the art
gallery was filled with rare works of art,
and these were all destroyed.
Studebaker is absent as a member of the
International Congress, and was to have
entertained that body at his home on the
10Th instant. The rest of the family, ex-
cept Mrs. Studebaker and her grand
children, are also away.
Mrs. Studebaker discovered the fire this
morning in closet under the rear stair
way. 1t was by spontaneous combustion
of some old rags the painters had been
using and thrown in there. The flames
spread all over the building in an incred-
ib!e short time. The servants had a mar
row escape and Mrs. Studebaker herself
was found on the terrace barely sensible,
dangerously burned and clasping her grand
children in her arms. Owing to the care
ful manner in which the structure was
built, in was supposed to be secure from
fire. Studebaker carried but $20, 600 in
sur6nce.

CRUISER BALTIMORE.
amp s. sons Want Second Trial of
Her Horse-noMer.

Cramp & sons Want a Second Trial of
Her Horsepower.
WASHINGTON, October 9th-Wm Cramp,
of the Philadelphia ship-building firm,
had conference with Secretary Tracy to.
day, concerning the proposed second trial
of the cruiser Baltimore. At the first trial
her engines failed to develop the horse
power required in the contract by very
small amount, and it is said that the con-
tractors desire another trial on that point
alone, the speed of the vessel having been
satisfactory. Mr.. Cramp believes that on
the next attempt they can show an excess
over the contract horsepower. No conelu-
sion has yet been reached by the Secretary.

TIE LITTLE HIGH CHAIR.
II Touched just the Right spot In the
Auctloneer's Heart.

II Touched just the Right spot In the
Auctioneer's Heart.
From the Detroit Free Press.
There was an auction at one of the down
town auction houses recently. A pale sad
faced woman, in a plain calico gown, stood
IN crowd. The loud voiced auctioneer
came To a lot of plain and somewhat worn
furniture. II had belonged To the pale
woman and was being sold to satisfy the
mortgage on il.
One by one the articles were sold, the old
bureau to one, the easy rocker Ia another
and Il bedstead 10 third. Finally the
auctioneer hauled out IA childs chair. Ii
was old and rickety, and as the auctioneer
held II up everybody laughed body
excepting. the pale faced woman. tear
trickled down her cheek.
The auctioneer saw ii, and somehow a
lump seemed to come up In his throat and
his gruii voice grew soit. He remembered
little high chair at home, and how il had
once filled his life with sunshine.
Ii was empty now.
The baby laugh, the two little hands that
We're once held out to greet papa" from
that high chair Were gone forever. lie
saw the pale faced woman's piteous look
and knew what ii meant-knew that in
her eye The little rickety high chair was
more precious than il il had been made of
gold and studded with diamonds.
In imagination he could see the little
cherub which ii once held, could see the
little chubby fist graspng the tin rattlebox
and pounding the chair full of nick s-could
see the little feet which had rubbed the
paint OF the legs could hear the Growing
and laughing in glee-and now the little
high chair was empty. lie knew there was
an aching void In the pale faced woman's
heart there Was in his own.
Somehow the days may come and 90
and you never get over il. There is no one
10 dress in the morning, no one To- put To
bed al night
" Don't taught" said the auctioneer
softly as some one iacctously offered ten
cents "many ofyotL may have little empty
high chairs at home which money would
not tempt You To pam, with. Then he
handed his CLERK bill out of his own
pocket and remarked: "Sold To the lady
over there" and as the pale faced woman
walked out with the little high chair
ciasped in her arms and tears streaming
down her cheeks, the crowd stood back
respectfully and there was suspicious
moisture in the eyes of the man who bid
ten cents.
