A Boon to High Buildings.

Fire escapes have hitherto, as rule,
been limited to ropes and ladders which
are often rendered useless either by the
fire or by the rush OF people and the
difficulty women and children have in
making use of them. A new fire escape
is said to have been invented which
seems to avoid many of the usual draw
backs. It consists Of form Of elevator
attached to the back Of . building, with
fireproof doors leading into it from the
end of each hallway on every floor.
The doors close automatically and the
person entering it is at once shut of
from the fire. He steps on q platform
in the elevator and his own weight will
take him to the bottom and land him
out Of doors. The elevator works auto
matically and cannot be put out of
order by hasty use. The weight Of a
child is sufficient TO send it to the bot
tom, the speed being regulated auto
matically by common governor at
tached to the top. Any number Of peo-
pie could be going down at the same
time without increasing the speed. The
platforms are attached to an endless
chain, folding as they pass up and fall
ing into place IS they come down.

BIsuor FITZGERALD, Of the Methodist
Episcopal church, south, says concern
ing the religious proclivities Of the
negroes: 81 have seen much ignorance
and many extravagances among negro
religionists, but have not yet seen q
negro atheist. Ihave known thousands
Of negroes who believed too much, but I
have never yet found one who belle we'd
too little. The race that has faith has

stition shall have been dug up cannot
doubt that every fair flower that blooms
in the garden of the Lord will flourish
in the rich soil of the negro's nature.

Many years ago, Richard Cole

young lawyer. was made Judge.
he was quiet nnassuming man,
and at the time of assuming his Of
fee had made little or no reputation.
Shortly after he went upon the
bench cruel murder was commits
ted in his district by a VIGOROUSLY
bad man. The murderer was tried
and convicted of murder in the first
degree.
In pronouncing the sentence of
the law upon the prisoner, Judge
Coleman spoke with so much feel
ing and cIoqunenee that many of
the listeners were moved to tears.
The murderer, on the other hand,
seemed TO be quite Indifferent, look
ing at the ceiling and apparently
paying no attention whatever to
what was being said. After he was
remanded to jail one OF the young
lawers went into the cell, curious to
know how the criminal had felt
when the judge was passing SEN
tence upon him.
