CROSS SECTION.

quired to build it is a serious item. There are
but two years for this purpose, and we must
remember that it required ten years to build
causeway and inclined plane on which to
carry up the blocks for the great pyramid Of
Cheops and 100000 men were twenty years
building the pyramid. But the designer
thinks that his structure can be completed
within the time an opinion which reflects
upon the skill and energy of the builders Of
the Chcops affair. He admits, however, that
it must be built near granite quarry.
There is to be a special railroad running
nound the pile by which material will be
delivered to within $50 feet Of the top, after
which it will be raised by derricks. The road
will have more than one track, and viii be
inclosed in tunnel as fast as the structure
rises. When complete it will be between
fifteen and twenty miles long Doubtless it
is intended to serve for the ascent of visitors
after the fair has been opened. 1t is the
longest ride yet proposed A plan for tour
with a circular driveway three and half
mics was recently published, which seemed
to be a long distance. but the route over
which one will ascend to the apex OF this
great pyramid will be good days march for
soldiers in the field on q level road. Even in
a train, considering the incline, it win prob
ably require two hours TO make the ascent.
The estimated cost of this work is in pro-
portion to its immense size. 1t viii cost A175,-
000,0 Where the money is to come from
its originator does not indicate, except that
1t would necessarily be under government
control and consequently the government
would have to pay for it in order to control
it. New York has not been quick in raising
the guaranty fund of 5000, coo for the fair,
and if an effort is necessary to raise S. 0oo, 900
for this purpose in the metropolis, how prac-
ticable would be the raising of STE, O0O, 900,
or thirty five times the amount, for pyramid
which after the fair would be of no use ex-
cept for people to go up to get the views

BETTER THAN FAITH CURE.

A New Remedy for the Toothache Which
L. Warranted to Work.
There were five men Of US and three NO
men, besides the driver, who were staging it
between two towns in Kansas We set ont

| ride, and had not made over two miles when
| the oldest man in the crowd, who was from
| the nutmeg state, and built on Yankee prin-
ciples, suddenly exclaimed:
'By gosh to squashl"
"What's upf asked one Of the lot.
''The toothachei She's hit me in that ere
lower double tooth, and I'm in for bushel
of trouble"
"Just try and not think Of it," suggested
one of the women. keep your thoughts on
your family"
He tried it for two or three minutes, and
y smile of affection came to his face. 1t sud
denly died away, however, to be replaced by
look Of ferocity as he yelled out:
Hang my family, but it don't work. Has
anybody got any campborl"
Nobody had. One man had some tobacco,
but the Yankee couldn't go it. The ache,
once started, grew worse, and as he began
grooming secend woman suggested:
''I've heard say as Imagination has all to
are sound asleep and dreaming Of angels and
SUCH"
He tried it, and for a minute or two the
ache let up. Then it struck him with jump,
and he seized his jaw and yelled:
''Jsrusha jackson! but I'll be gaul burned
If hain't goin' to die right herel Driver,
stop the wagon"
1t was stopped, and he wanted to know
how far it was to a town. He was told that it
was twenty miles, and he fetched groan q
rod long and said:
''It's got to be donel Driver, come down
here!"
"What do you wantr'
"You've got to knock it out! You are the
biggest man in the lot, and guess you kin
hit purity fair blow. Give me litter right
here on the jaw"
'Do you mean itl"
"Sartain, and don't waste any more time.
Spit on yer hand, haul off, and sock me ono
right on that tooth. l want it Knocked into
cooked hat"
"But you will go with it."
''Cant help that. Now, imagine that l
have called you double barreied liar, and
whale away"
The driver drew back and then landed on
the exact spot, and the Yankee tumbled bead
over heels in the grass He was up in min
ute. however, and he put his thumb and fin
ger into his mouth and pulled out two teeth
and shouted:
"Whoopl it's one extra, but that's all

Pocket-Testimony Concluded.

CHICAGO, Ill, Nov. 29-At the afternoon
session of the Cronin trial number OF
keepers and frequenters OF saloons were
examined in regard to the opening OF
certain saloon on the night of the murder
Then the defense rested.
States Attorney Longnecker announced
that evidence of On important nature had
come to light during the morning and
asked to be allowed to present it. Mr..
Forrest objected, but the court decided to
admit the evidence.
Police Officer Flynn was then called to
the stand, and in response to questions
testified as follows: "When Daniel Cough
lin was arrested was ordered by Lieuten-
ant Elliott to take him to the Harrison
street station, which l did When we got
there searched him in Captain Bartram's
office. These two knives which L have in
my hand found in his possession. took
the knives and revolver from COughlin
and have had them in my possession ever
since"
L. T. Conkling, the man with whom DR..
Cronin lived, was then called to the stand.
He identified the knives as having been
carried by Dr. Cronin when alive. The
knives were then admitted in eyieence.
Two more witnesses were examined rs
to matters connected with the saloon open
ing on the night of May 4.
This ended the evidence and States At
torney Longenecker began his address to
the jury.
LONGENECKER BEGINS TO TALK.
Judge Longenecker said he would con-
fine himself to review of the evidence and
would leaves the arguments and speeches
to his associates. He started in on the
task of reviewing the testimony which had
been introduced to show that there was a
conspiracy to murder DIR. Cronin. He
cited the fact of the trial of the Clan-na-
Gael triangle by committee of which DR..
Cronin was a member. He referred fur
Their to the fact of Dr.. Cronin
having preserved a copy of
the evidence and of Coughlin's
motion for a new trial of the triangle. He
read the correspondence between Beggs,
one of the defendants, and Spellman Of
Peoria. The states attorney then rehears-
ed the facts concerning the renting of the
Clark street fat, the buying of the furni-
ture and carpet for the Carlson cottage, to
the meeting of FEBRUARY % when Coughlin
made the motion for committee to inves-
tigate Cronin's connection.
The regular recess till TO-
morrow morning was taken.

nately those who carried him off were band
OF italian railroad laborers, and they tied the
dog beside the tracks, and Jack was enabled
to hail his friends as they passed on the
trains by bowls with which they had been
long familiar. Finally he was noticed by
trainman on an express train, who tele-
graphed back to the boys aboard an accom-
mediation train which followed
When the slow train came to the laborers'
camp sally was made by Jacks admirers
and a rescue was effected Jack was the hap
piest dog in America. 1t is hoped that the
intelligent animal will learn to write some
day, when he can publish a novel based on his
own experience and make himself the hero.
Railroad Jack, or Trainmen to the Rescue"
would be a good title.
Jack has figured at quite number of dog
shows, but being accustomed to the road he
gets nervous when absent from it. After
these shows he usually takes long trip.
When the show at Toronto closed recently he
proceeded at once to the station, and instead
of taking an Albany train took a draw
ing room car for Chicago. There he
remained long enough to look over the pro-
posed sites for the Worlds fair and then
took a train for home. But Jack didn't wish
it to be known among bis friends in the bag
gage room at Albany that be was putting on
airs in drawing room cars, so he hoped into
q baggage car and contenced himself to re-
turn in the station in which he had been
brought up. During the ride a coffin with
weighty corpse inside dropped on his toe and
amputsted it without the aid of surgeon

ELEVATION.

dous" ana all the old words in the dictionary
which have served this purpose have become
tame. The designs have increased in size,
each succeeding one, over its predecessor,
till they are now so great that all previous
structures on the earth's surface, including
the Eiffel and the Babel towers and the pyra-
mids Of Egypt, have become mere pigmies in
comparison
Mr.. George W. Cooley, Of Minneapolis, is
the last candidate, with design which
ecipses all former ones He proposes mas
sive stone pyramid of granite, each side Of
whose base is to be 1890 feet long, 500 feet
wide, 1000 feet high and 100 feet square at
the summit, where is to stand q statue of
Liberty 200 feet high, giving a total elevation
Of 1900 feet.
"In the center of the pyramid" says Tho
Minneapolis Tribune, twill be circular
chamber 500 feet in diameter, the sides to be
Of polished granite and rising in the form Of
Gothic arch to the apex, which is 700 feet
from the pavement Leading to this central
chamber are four passageways or corridors,
with an arched roof, the keystone Of tho arch
being 100 feet above the surface level. The
entrances to these corridors will be on the
middle Of each side Of the pyramid, and will
be constructed with q Wow to ornament as
well as utility. About midway between the
extrenities Of each corridor will be an oc-
tagonal chamber somewhat higher than the
corridor itself. At each outer corner of the
pyramid is a square tower 100 feet in
height, to be surmounted by statue. Two
statues only have been decided upon by Mr..
Cooley, those Of Columbus and Washington
The others viii probably be those Of the
president Of the United States and some
other prominent character in the nations
