Buildings Put Up Quickly.

What do I think of the rapidity
with which buildings are run up now,
as. compared with twenty years ago
you ask? Why, there is no compari.
mas far as the time consumed is con-
cerned."
Such was the remark of member of
one Of the largest building firms in
New York to a Ne,vs reporter the
other day.
"To what is the change due?"
well, there are several causes. To
commence with, the hod- carrier at
which you newspaper men were always
making jokes, has, for practical pur-
poses, become back number. Bricks
and all classes of building material are
now hoisted by derricks and steam
lifts and there is no longer any climb
up long ladders. Then again no time
is lost now, and every man that can be
utilized is put to work On building,
while the material is much easier to
handle, being better shaped.
81 might say that the era of rapid
and high building came in with the
craze for fire-proof structures. Hol-
low bricks, steel and iron castings have
enabled architects to accomplish Won
ders, and rapidly as buildings spring
up to-day they are fully as strong as
those which twenty-five years ago took
three times as much time to erect"

Justified in killing u Mule.

Perhaps the queerest lawsuit on
record-one that deserves place in
the legal records Of Georgia-was that
which was recently decided in Morgan
County, Ga. A drummer hired a mule
and buggy to go into the country. The
mule became contrary and backed the
buggy into the fence. The drummer
piled the whip and the mule kicked
back. The mud flew, but the drummer
held his own. When patience ceased to
be virtue, the commercial gentleman
drew a revolver from his pocket and
killed the long-eared source of danger.
The owner of the mule brought suit
against the drummer for the value of
his quadruped, whereby on the jury
brought in the following verdict: eve,
the jury, find the defendant not guilty,
and the killing a case OF justitiable
homicide."

Cats waae Comfortable in New York.

Marion Lotus, patron of the Home
for Cats, New York, says: There are
about sixty cats in the home now, and
you can't imagine the comfort the poor
little tabbies are to those who take an
interest in their welfare. The home is
attracting attention, and number of
persons have brought in little outcasts.
A number OF substantial contributions
have been received from friends of the
home, and think its success is as
sured. The cats are well taken care
of, provided with milk, little meat,
and warm places to sleep. The
"strays," as we call them, compose a
very happy family; they do not fight,
and make no noise at night. I don't
believe one complaint has been received
on account of the presence of the cats.
