ADM. MCCAIN publishes defense of
Minister Egan and says he joined with
the representatives of other powers in
warning Balmaceda not to deal with
the congressionalists as he proposed.
Minister Egan helped get Montt and
his associates safely out of the country.
His assertion that Balmaceda was too
strong to be overthrown was private,
unofficial remark. and Mr.. McCann
blames himself for allowing it to be-
come published.

Tencnent House Horror.

CHICAGO, Sept 1s.-one of the most
disastrous fires that has visited the city
for some time occurred at about 1880 this
morning in four-story tenement house
at $40 and 551 Sedgwick street. AL
though the blaze lasted but fifty min
utes FIVE people are dead and another
will undoubtedly die. The basement
and lower floor of the building was
used by William Kafitz for a
bakery and it was in the rear OF
his oven room that the fire originated.
When discovered the flames had al
ready gained considerable headway.
The alarm was at once given, quickly
followed by second.

physical science, says Goldthwaite's Geo
graphical Magazine. Some eminent physic-
lists, tUr instance, like Sir William Tn0mp-
son, have believed that the crust OF tho
earth IS al least 100 miles thick The
majority adduce good reasons for believing
that the crust is only twenty-five 10 fifty
miles thick. All agree that the tenpcra.
ture within the earth continues TO increase
as It does near the Surface-at the rate of
one degree, Fahrenheit, for about every
fifty-fve feet of descent. All igneous rocks
must be fused at no great depth
In fact. at this rate of increase the TEN
perature Al 200 miles is 5000 degrees Fab
renhelt. which IS Professor Rosetti's csti-
mate of the probable temperature Of the
sun. 1t is improbable, however. that this
rate Of increase Is maintained for n great
distance, and many physicists believe hat

BARN AND OPEN SHED.

Aliberal supply of pure fresh air is neces-
sary to the comfort and health of the ami
NAL, and the allowance should be not less
than two cubic feet Of air space to every
pound of live weight The ventilation

The floor on which the horse stands
should be nearly level; otherwise, when
raised toward the horses head, it has been
found toput the back sinews on the stretch,
and thus to fatigue the animal when it
ought to have rest With regard to the
proper dimensions of the stalls for horses
there is difference of opinion, some horse
men claiming that the width of stall
should not exceed four feet; others say
that it should be fully five feet in width.
From careful measurements the writer has
found that horse of average size may be
considered as forming a wedge s feet long,
61S feet high, Q feet broad at one end and
IL feet broad at the other. In extreme
cases it may be considered that the largest
horse will form wedge feet broad at one
end and 2111 feet at the other. The horse is
capable of lying down and rising up in q
space Of 1 foot all around, which would
give a stall II feet long, feet broad at one
end and 81 feet broad at the other, on an
average. The extreme case would be in ex-
cess of this-41H feet broad at one end and
feet at the other.

FIRST STORY PLAN.

In practice, however, the wedge shaped
stall is rarely used, the best horsemen
choosing the parallelogram stall, varying
from to feet in width. for single stalls,
with not less than 10 feet square for box
stalls.
The disposal of the liquids from the
stable is best done by an open gutter formed
in concrete floor in which an iron graf
ing or strainer is set to conduct the same
to the cesspool or sewer. If concrete
floor is used over the entire stall the space
where the horse stands should have q
wooden slat floor upon which the horse
may stand. The liquids will thus pass be-
tween the Stats to the gutter, and the bed
ding for the horse will be kept dry and
clean.
The rick from which hay is fed to the
horse should be Of wrought iron, the feed
bin of cast iron, with tho top smaller than
the base, so as to prevent the horse from
wasting his feed.
In tying horse the halter strap should
be weighted and run in tube behind the
manger, to prevent his feet becoming en-
tangled in it, The practice of having a
chute over the hayrick, through which
hay from the storage loft may be thrown,
is common method employed, but should
be condemned, as it is liable to fill the
horses eyes, ears and nostrils with fine
dust, which is likely to give the animal a
cough. The most sensible way, according
to some authorities, is to throw the hay
upon the floor at the head of the stall, and
omit the hayrick altogether.

Ready for Death,

In every important newspaper office
in the United States is department de.
voted to the preparation and preservation
of biographies of prominent people,
where they are ready for immediate use
when the fatal moment arrives. To a
great part of the public this information
will be news, and will serve to explain
to them how two or three column obit
uary of some public man appears in the
daily papers with the announcement of
his sudden death. 1t frequently occurs
that the biographies are written for
many years before the death of the per-
son whose posthumous praises are
to be sounded. From time to time
these sketches are added to and brought
down to date for the purpose of
avoiding confusion or delay in case
they are to be used on brief no
tice. Gen. U. s. Grants biography
was written for more than twenty
years before his death, and that Of the
late Earl Russell, of England, wasa SINH
lar case.

GEMS OF THOUGHT.

THE surest remedy for evil consists in
forgetting it
ONLY. great men have any business
with great defects
IL order to love mankind, we must not
expect too much from them.
WHAT is celebrityP The ADVANTAGE of
being known to people who don't know
you.
To BE really cosmopolitan a man
must be at home even in his own coun.
try.
ONLY, one mover cap tell whether
poet poetic existence and feeling has
any true rotation to his own real life.
FOR the deadiest Of all wet blankets,
give me a m'ddle-aged man, who has
been most of visionary in his youth
The pillow 4 dumb sibyl. To sleep
upon thing that is to be done is better
than TO be wakcned up by one already
done.
ALL confidence is dangerous unless 1t
is complete; there are few circumstances
in which it is not best, either to hide ali,
or to tell all.
A TRUE conviction, anything thor
oughly believed, is personal. 1t becomes
part of the believers character as well
as a possession of his brain; it makes
him another and deeper man.
REALLY great men have curious
undersense OF powerlessness, feeling
that the greatness is not in them, but
through them; that they could not do or
be anything else than God made them.
A DIVINE person is the prophecy of
the mind; a friend is the hope of the
heart Our beatitude waits for the full
fllmcnt of these two in one. Aces are
opening this moral force All force is
the shadow or symbol of that
