300 houses destroyed and 2o0, 900 people with

It is located on Michigan boulevard and

Ite principal features is an immense ball
room, which includes a completely fitted
stage, complete barber shop, a music room.
which is divided by Mexican onyx columns
from a Conservatory, and ono of the finest
private Libraries in the country.
On the floor of the drawing room is q large
rug, woven in one piece, the cost of which
alone was $1,000
The floor of the large reception hall is Of
Italian marble mosaic, and one of its attrac-
tive features is an old Moorish fireplace. The
0ining-room walls are finished in OLD tapestry
of almost fabulous value. The bathrooms
are white marble and onyx, the main one hav-
ing an onyx wainscoting i've feet in height,

Gold sIu.t Coma Back.

New YoRx, November 26.-Tbe Post says:
October's export of merchandise from the
United States breaks the monthly record for
this country. The reports for November and
December will fall little, if at all. short of
Oc.ober's total, and the imports of the two
closing months of the year are almost inva-
riably less than those os October. Unless
there is an extraordinary artificial influence
to supervene. it would seem impossible that
a heavy westward movement of Eorope's
gold can long be held in check. In the
meantime, the foundation of great future
strength in railway values IL unquestionably
being laid by the revenue from the transpor-
tation of the bulk of this enormous export
from the vest to the seaboard.

tlcians have found the way to the "Red

white and cream colored neighbors. The
secretary has been accessible and cordial.
He has inquired closely of tie political con-

BUT be has not said one word OF his personal
intentions. Some who have visited hun say
he looks better than they had been led to ex-

his mind was never more vigorous and mas
terly. Will he lie a candidate? The CON-
mitteemen are seemingly as much IN the
dark as the public. All expressions of opin-
ions are preceded with an 'if." ''If his
health will permit, Blaine; if not, then Har-
r;son." That is the summing up OF the three
days visiting between the Arlington and the
"Red House."
So far a the committeeman will express

place was startled by the announcement OF
the bold kidnapping of the 2-year-old son of
David T. Beals, president of the Union Ma
tional bank and a millionaire capitalist Of
this CITY. well known also throughout the
west The abduction occurred under condi-
lions that make the tracing of the child and
his abductress extremely difficult, inasmuch
as they appear to have disappeared as COM
pletely as If they had been annihilated.
Mr.. Beals is an elderly man. and this being
his youngest child, is regarded by both par
ents with particular favor. They are nearly
heart broken over his mysterious disappear
ance. The kidnapping was done by the
waitress engage d in the Beals household
just as the family were finishing dinner.
the waitress remarked that she would go out
after the evening paper, which is always de-
hvered on the verauda of the house. She
had been gone but few moments when Mr..
Beals heard an outer door siam. This, while
not being unusual at all, somehow excited
Mr.: Beals suspicion. and going into the hall,
he found that his little son was not playing
about. The child had been playing in the
hall with two of Mr.. Beals' grandchildren.
Upon being questioned they said that Lizzie
had taken the child out of side entrance.
Search was Immediately made for the ser
want and child, but up to the present time no
trace whatever of them has been found.
Mr.. Beals at once put the case in the hands
of the city police and the Pinkertons, and
they are making every effort to find the
child. The waitress has been in the Beals
household only three weeks, having been
employed without reference. Very little is
known of her. Her description is as follows:
