Next morning Torpenhow found Dick
sunk in deepest repose OF tobacco.
"Well, madman, how d'you feel ?'
"I dop't know. I'm trying to find out. "
"You had much better do some work."
MAYBE; but I'm in no hurry. I've made
discovery. Torp, there's too much Ego in
my Cosmos"
"Not reallyi Is this revelation due to
my lectures, or the Nilghai's?"
SIT came to me suddenly, all on my own
own account. Much too much Ego; and
now I'm going to work"
He turned over a few half-fnished
sketches, drummed on new canvas, cleaned
three brushes, set Binkie to bite the toes of
the lay-fgure, ratified through his collection
OF arms and accouternents, and then went
out abruptly, declaring that he had done
enough for the day.
'This is positively indecent" said Tor
penhow, "and the first time that Dick has
ever broken up light morning. Perhaps
he mas found out that he has a soul, or an
artistic temperament, or something equally
valuable. That comes of leaving him alone
for month. Perhaps he has been going out
of evenings. Imust look to this" He rang
for the bald-headed old housekeeper, whom
nothing could astonish or annoy.
"Beeton, did Mr.. Heldar dine out at all

Falls, and to the site of the first Congo Free
state settlements, many years before Mr..
Stanley was there. The falls had indeed
been explored by Captain Tuckey's COM
panions SO long ago as 1916, and the naviga-
bllity of that great river for an unknown
distance beyond might have been tested by
some other expedition. Moreover, the best
geographers were of opinion that the
Lualaba, discovered by Livingstone, was
the Uppe- Congo before Mr.. Stanley de-
scended the river in 1877. Captain Burton
had abls set forth the arguments in favor of
that opinion.

I don't think we've much altered in any,

Maisie critically. The pale-blue haze Of
an autumn day crept between the tree
trunks of the park and made a background
for the gray dress, the black velvet toque
above the black hair, and the resolute pro-
file.
:" No, there's nothing changed. How
good it is ! D'you remember when fastened
your hair into the snap OF handbag ?"
Maisie nodded, with twinkle in her eyes.

wolves the crane. When the bucket poises
exactly over the car, the adjustable bottom
is released, and with loud report more
than ton of iron in embryo drops upon
the floor of the car.
One of these steam shuvefs will load q car
in less than ten minutes. The fastest work
ever done with the machine at Fairport was
to load six cars of $4,000 pounds capacity
each, in 81 minutes. The average work of
one Of the shovels is ten cars of the Pitts
burg and Western road per hour. The COM
pany operates two of these steam shovels
constantly, with five men to each shovel.

the Pittsburg and Western Railroad coal
trains are scattered, and it is safe state
ment to make that if you look out OF the
car windows at any point between Paines-

"What is your line then?"

Was this thing possible? He cast about for
some means of conviction. They were not
far from the Marble Arch. "Come up OK

A small knot OF people stood round

with suppressed triumph. Never had sue

A GREAT ENTERPRISR.

A GREAT ENTERPRISE.
These furnace proprietors sell and ship
ore from their docks to other furnaces not in
the company, and at the present time Fair
port docks supply iron furnaces in Pitts
burg, the Mahoning Valley and the Shen-
ango Valley. 1t took several million dol
lars to build the piers, which extend along
Grand river clear out to Lake Erie. The
river had to be dredged extensively to make
it navigable a mile inland for large lake
steamers. That was only one small item OF
the heavy character OF the work accom-
plished, however.
Fairport is about 136 miles from Pittsburg
by the Pittsburg and Western Railroad,
and two miles north OF Painesville, the
terminus of the Lake division of that road.
The Pittsburg and Western Railroad holds
the key to that entire section of lake front,
and the franchises have grown enormously
valuable within the last three years on ac-
count of tine ore and coal tonnage to and
from Pittsburg and the other manufactur-
ing districts OF Pennsylvania and Ohio.
DOCKS OVER A MILE LONG.
Prom the lake shore back the docks are
5000 feet long. Of the foored docks 3, 800
feet are 200 feet wide. The balance OF the
length has storage width Of $40 feet. In
this magnificent area is more storage capac-
ity than any other docks on Lake Erie, not
excepting Cleveland or .Ashtabula. When
lake navigation is at Its height 500 men are
employed at Fairport.
1t is interesting to watch the process of
unloading the ore from the vessels, transfer
ring it to the railroad cars, or else storing it
for future demand. The machinery operated
at Fairport for this purpose is ponderous
and powerfui instantaneous photographs
which took of this machinery while il was
in operation will help the reader to under
stand the system. The vessels are unloaded
by two methods.
One is by great travelling cranes-the Nc

horn that was once the property Of the
great Indian chieftain, Tecumseh. 1t
was tho gift of Henry Morris, Of Law
rcnceburg. He is the son Of William
Morris, better known to Ohio Valley
pioneers as "Indian Bill" who figured
in many savage and bloody encounters.
After the great fight seventJ-six years
ago sIndian Bilp found the body Of
the slain warrior. The powder horn,
still attached to the string around Te-
cumsch's neck, lay on his breast. The
scout removed it and preserved 1t ss
the most sacred Of his relics. At his
death few years ago he presented It
to his son Henry, who has now given
It to Huff Post, and 1t hangs on the
wall in that organizations hall. The

Sold Her Body for GIuser-Bresd.

Squire Smith Kennedy says that he
has attended several hangings in his
life. The most notable one was the
hanging of black woman, . slave,
near the Fair Grounds. She was
hanged for pois oning couple of her
masters children. She sold her body
to some medical students at Lexington
for all the ginge 'r-bread she could eat
while she was in Jail awaiting for the
execution. After the hanging the
students placed the body in coffin,
and swung it under wagon and drove
off to Lexington in hot haste-their
horses in fast tr trot-hoping TO arrive
there in time to resuscitate the body
with electricity. Just before arriving
there the rope broke and the corpse fell
to the pike and the coffin broke into
halves and the corpse rolled out. They
gathered it up ard carried it into Lex
ington by hand-Iower. As nothing
more was heard of the woman, it is
fair to presume that their experiment
was failure Bourbon (Ky.) News.
