TWO AANosoMe srRuo1uaes.

The Federal Building and the Home
of the Equitable Guarantee aud Trust
Company.
The Federal bnilding foundations are
completed with the exception Of a por-
tion of them on the Orange street side
This delay was probably occasioned by
the strike Of the brioklayers The foun.
dations are very heavy and
are well calculated to uphold the massive
structure to be erected thereon. Work
upon Che walls has begun and the stone
masons will push their work as rapidly
as possible. Czar Reed only has six
bricklayers at work, but it is not thought
that this will delay the general work
very much.
Less than half a square away Is the
scene Of operations on the new building
for the Equitable Guarantee and Trust
Company. 1t is claimed that the founds-
tions Of this building are the
deepest and heaviest ever built In
this city. They are now completed and
the walls are going up. Work upon this
building has attracted much more stten-
tion than that on the Federal building.

ment's rest and about their 25th year men
and women dropped dead of total exhsus-
tion. Pereeiving the increasing coldness Of
the planet and the approach of eternal winter,
they had early maintained about them-
selves a warm and oxygenized atmosphere,
milder and more exciting than the old
breezes from the woods and prairies, had
lived more rapidly and rushed more rashly
to the inevitable end. The elegance of cos-
TUNES, the beauty of forms had gradually
risen to an unexpected perfection in eonse-
quence Of a passional selection, which
seemed to have no other object than imme-
diate happiness. Wives no longer became
mothers unless by accident. Besides, some
OF the lower classes alone remained in condi-
tion to undertake the duties of motherhood,
fashion having for some time been able to
suppress the necessity in the upper social
spheres.
Then 1t was seen that the women of ths
lower classes were the first to feel the deadly
effects OF invading cold, and the DAY came
when 1t was recognized that amid the blind
enjoyment of pleasure no woman was q
mother or could become one, They no
longer desired the inconyeniences of mater.
nifty, which had so long been left to the in
ferior women, and they reigned in all the
sPlendor OF their unblemished beauty. It
was only when law was passed that the en-
tire fortune of the republic would be given
to the hrst woman who would give birth to q
child that they understood the irreparsble
extent OF the misfortune that had befal!en
the last Inhabitants of the earth.
Doubtless the end would not have long

COURT NEWS OF A DAY.

True Bills Found Against Henry W. Hart
man and Charles Wylie for Misrepre-
senting weights-IndIctment Quashed
in the Greevy-Scuil Congressional Con-
test.
In the United States Court yesterday the
grand jury completed its work. The last
two indictments upon which true bills were
returned are in the cases of the Government
against Henry w. Hartman and Charles
Wylie, OF the Hartman Manufacturing
Company, of Beaver Falls. They were in
dicted on the charge Of willfully and know
ingly. fraudulently misrepresenting the
weight of two shipments of wire doormats
to New York. The offenses are indictable
under the interstate commerce act
An argument was made on motion to
quash the indictment against james M.
Cover and Samuel s. Forney for refusing to
appear before the magistrates and testify
and produce the ballot boxes in the Greevy-
Scull Congressional contest in the Blair and
Somerset district The motion set forth that
the bill of indictment was defective as not
showing that the defendants had been sum-
moned to appear before a magistrate, and
that the bill did not charge the defendants
with o crime against the United States.
Judge Reed in the afternoon sustained
the motion quashing the indictments.
The following cases were continued until
the next term of court: Thomas G. Spencer
a postmaster of Clarion county, charged
with opening letter belonging to another;
A. E. Sutherland, of Hazelton, charged
with writing indecent letters; Nelson Van
derpool, charged with asking excessive COM
pensation as pension agent
Before the grand jury adjourned it passed
a vote of thanks to w. b. McCleary, fore
man, and f. X. Burns, clerk. During the
present term 81 true bills were returned and
four ignored
