Ayoung working man in Dubuque,
Ia, bought a colored shirt. In tearing
off the tag he discovered q note therein
requesting the purchaser to correspond
with the maker Of the shirt in a New
Jersey manufacturing town. She said
she was working for starvation wages
and hoped to find home and husband
where she would be happy. He wrote
to her, was pleased with her replies,
went to New Jersey and married her.
Three weeks after they were united for
life she received a letter from England
the home of her ancestors containing 4
draft for 81 900 and notification Of the
fact that she was sole heir to fortune
of over Sl50,000. Now every man who
buys a shirt will search for a concealed
epistle.
The great element of danger with wo-
mans progress before the public lies III
this fact: that it takes women away
from home who ought to be there and
nowhere else. The public platform is
no place for Il mother who has either
sons OF daughters to educate II wom-
ans progress is going to tend in that di
rection, the sooner that advancement
stops the better. The first thought of
a wife OF mother should be her home.
all things, no matter how important,
are secondary to that. No matter how
rampant may become certgin public
evils, let her see to it that she keeps
the evils out of her home, and she per-
forms her greatest duty to her God, her
family and mankind.-Edward W. Box
in Ladies' Home Journal.

RAoHse OF VSVenty Million Nails.
The largest grain elevator in the
world was built at Minneapolis June
ton in 1886. The building is 336
feet long 90 feet wide, and 175 feet
high. 1t has storage capacity for
1000, 600 bushels of grain within it's
walls. During its construction the
carpenters and joiners used over
$500, 900 feet of lumber of all kinds,
besides thirty-two car loads of nails,
which, if packed, would make the
enormous amount of 10000 common
kegs; the best calculators say that
the actual number OF nails used in
the mighty building will fall but few,
ii any. under 10000. 900. The engine
used is capable of handling IT'S, 900
to ECO, 900 bushels of grain per day,
or enough 10 equal the combined pro-
ducts of the State of Minnesota and
the two Dakotas. Two hundred and
fifty cars have often been loaded at
this elevator in ten hours.

Where Is Columbus, Grave!

Where are the veritable bones of
Christopher Columbus-at Cuba or
St. Domingo? AS every reader of
history and biography knows, they
were removed from the cathedral of
Valladolid and sent cruising, like their
venerated owner, on the high seas,
till they found resting place at St.
Domingo, but it is averred that the
French, during their temporary pos
session of the latter island, transport
ed them to Cuba, If an anecdote re-
lated by Mr.. Arthur Monteaore in
Temple Bar may be trusted, 'cute
American showmen, who when they
have to pay prefer the genuine arti-
Gle, incline to the ST. Domingo relics.
Not long ago. so runs the story. a
speculator of this class, fortified by
recommendation from the American
consul, applied to the Dominican gov
eminent for permission to lease for q
term Of years the bones of 1.-The great,

Comfortable Rooms in the Electric Light
Block, East Side.
The rooms selected for the senate and
house were in tho hands of workmen all
day yesterday getting everything in readi-
ness for the meeting of the legislative as
sembly to-day at noon. The hall for the
use of the house is on the top floor of the
wedge shaped Electric light block at the
corner of Park and Sixth avenues on the
east side of town. There are several small
Ter rooms connecting with the main room
which are well arranged for committee and
cloak rooms. Just back of the speakers
desk in the north end of the room is a
good sized apartment which will be
used by the speaker as his private
office. TIL desks of the member have
been arranged somewhat in the form of a
semicircle, the aisles and passage-ways
being wide and roomy. There are no pill
lars III the main body of the room, and
consequently no obstruction to vision.
The floor has been covered with suitable
carpe.ing and strips of mating which har-
monte with the black walnut desks and
stained pine finish of the walls and lofty
ceiling. There will not be much room for
spectators and at present there ID no diyid-

The senate chamber, which is two floors
beloww here entrance is gained from the
Park avenue side of the building, is not so
we'll adapted for legislative purposes. 1t
is situated just above the ponderous ma
chinery of the electric light plant in the
basement of tie building which begins to
rumble and fill the room with a whirring,
humIning noise III the afternoon. There
are q number of pillars which obstruct
the view somewhat although the
sixteen desks of t~hesenators are SO placed
that each will have a chance to look the pre-
siding officer full in the face. Like the room
upstairs there is not much space for on
lockers. There is ample provision in the
way of committee and cloak rooms and al
together it il a very comfortable looking
place.
Both halls will be heated by steam and
lighted by electricity from the plant in the
basement of the building. The only modern
improvement lacking about the structure il
an elevator. One would be a great con
veTIence to the men who will have to climb
the two flights OF stairs starting on Park
avenue to reach the hall on the top door.
While the building cannot be said to be
centrally located, yet it Is but a few min
utes walk from the leading hotels and is
close to the motor lines, by which all parts
OF the city may be reached III Il short
time.
