It Up Into Sacks.
Every farmer who cleans grain for
market has, no doubt, wished for some
plan to save the time and the back
bending labor of scooping it up into
sacks
farmer in this vicinity devised and con.
structed machine which he pro-
nounces decided success. After sey-
eral successive improvements it is sub
stantially as here described 1t is
shown in perspective at Fig. 1. The
elevator shaft is six feet long, raised
three feet above the floor at it's upper
end, and resting on two-inch board
at the lower. The sides of this ele.
vator are eight inches apart, inside
measure, and should be about the same

placed e5 feet apart longitudinally and
115 feet and 81 feet o inches trans
versely, thus leaving clear space in CEN
ter of building $50 feet long and 115
feet wide, with two side divisions, each
81 feet inches wide and $50 feet long,
leaving the central space incum mbered
with only 16 supporting steel posts.
The cantilevers are of pin connection
to facilitate erection. The inner and
higher ends of the cantilevers are 40
feet apart and the space between them
is spanned by riveted steel trusses with
an elliptical lower chord.
These trusses are designed so as to
form clerestory IL feet high, with
vertical sash extending the entire
length of central space-63O feet; said
space terminating at each end with a
great glass gable setting back go feet
from front ends of building. The wide
spacings of the cantilever necessitated
an extensive system of longitudinal
perlincs of the riveted lattice type. A
great portion of the roof is covered
with glass.
1t may be of interest to state that the
cantilever system as applied to roofs
has not been used heretofore on so
large scale and that the Mines build
ing is the only one of the exposition
group, excepting the large domes, that
has steel roof trusses. The foundation
of the building is built of wood laid be-
low frost in the sand. A layer of three
inch plank is first put down and then
crossed with heavy timbers which re-

being broadened to suit the load, adj
mitting not to exceed two tons pressure
per square foot on the earth. The ex-
terror of this building, like all the
others, will be made of 'staff," similar
to that used in facing the recent Paris
exposition buildings.

What Gains.

Senator Quay himself thinks it likely
he will resign the national chairman
ship next week. at is probable" that
he will do SO, he says, "but not certain"
Well there is nothing certain in poll
tics. But it really looks as if Mr.. Quay
intends to go.
Mr.. Quay, whatever he may pretend,
does not leave this position voluntarily.
He goes because he must. He is
scorned by the better men of his par
ty. He is despised by the filter men
who should be the party leaders, His
retirement has been demanded by
them and party unity can only be
maintained by his withdrawal. He
goes out at the back door. And he
goes out because he is kicked out.
No matter if Mr.. Quay did elect
Mr.. Harrison. No matter if John
Wanamaker did raise the money Quay
corruptly expended. There must be
scapegoat and Quay having already
assumed many burdens Of his own
must bear the ugly loads that belong
to others. The men who contributed
to the Quay corruption fund, the man
who gleefully bore it from Philadelphia
to Washington, they all may remain
without blushing. but the man who
spent it and won with it must go.
When he does 60 John S. Clarkson
is to succeed him. Does decency gain
thereby? Is political purity aided by
the changer Will honesty in public
place be more respected by Clarkson
than by Quay3 TO these several in
quiries a negative response must be
made, unless Clarkson reformed while
abroad.-Pdtriot.

The Farmer Judge.
HIS DECISION IN A MORTGAGE CASE MAY
GET HIM INTO TROUBLE.

A dispatch from Topeka, Kansas,
says: Judge G.. w. Nc Kay of Har-
per county, the Alliance Judge who
was to have gone to Ann Harbor to
study law after he was elected to office,
is interfering with the supreme court,
and may get himself into trouble. He
has issued orders which have set aside
the orders of the supreme court. Pro-
ceedings were commenced in mort
gagged foreclosure case in Harper coun-
ty last January against Albert Honey
well, person of unsound mind. b.
A. Burr was appointed receiver to take
charge of the property June IL. Hon
eywell, by his guardian, asked to have
the receiver removed, and the farmer
judge granted the petition. The mort
gagee appealed the case to the su-
preme court, and Judge Horton, on
filing of a good and sufficient bond,
ordered that the receiver again be
placed in charge of the property pend
ing the hearing of the case at the Sep
tember term.
Honeywell then again petitioned
Judge Mckay to oust the receiver.
and he issued an order to that effect
and turned it over to the sheriff. Re
clever Burr declined to obey it, and
he was brought before the judge on a
charge Of contempt, convicted, fined
$50 and sentenced TO Jail until the
fine was paid. He declined to pay
the fine and instituted habeas corpus
proceedings in the supreme court. A
temporary writ was granted and Burr
was released on $1,000 bond. The
case will be heard at the September
term.

The Drowning Achievement.
THE GRANDEsT SPECTACLE OF THE AGE

Never before has Scranton been
able to announce such an attraction as
will be presented within its gates for
the first time on Tuesday evening, Ju-
ly 28, continuing every Tuesday,
Thursday and Saturday evenings. The
arrangements were made so promptly
that comparatively few people knew
what was going on until they heard
that Paine's gorgeous historical pro.
duction of "The Last Days of Pompeii"
had been secured for a short season
1t is an important event to the people
within reasonable distance of Scran-
ton. They will now have an opportu-
nifty to witness at popular prices, the
grandest display human ingenuity has
devised. TO accomplish this required
a guarantee of $4,000 at the outset,
which amount was furnished by some
OF Scranton's well known business men.
BY this stroke of enterprise, residents
OF adjoining cities, and adjacent States
can enjoy this magnificent production
to show the ''Last Days of Pompeii"
only in the largest cities, but all the
railroads centering in Scranton will is
sue tickets at excursion rates one
fare for the round trip-while the ad-
mission fee has been fixed at the low
price of SO cents. This has been done
to place a visit to the great exhibition
within the reach of the humblest
And it is quite certain the immense
attendance will demonstrate the wis
dom of the act.
Tickets. 50 cents. Reserved seats,
IS cents. Seats in private boxes, 81.

Great Loss Of Life amd Damage To
property at Iquique--2OO Lives
Lost, All women and Children.
BuENos AyREs, Feb. 26.-Additional
advices received here from Chill state
that the bombardment of lquique by the
insurgents was productive of great loss
of life and heavy damage to property.
When the insurgents entered the city
hey attacked the stores and residences
on six OF the principal squares and cont
pletel, wrecked them. The buildings
had afforded shelter to large
number of women and children, but the
insurgents. needless of the rules govern
ing civilized warfare, gave them no
chance to escape and pursued their work
of destruction, regardless of the frantic
endeavors of the helpless esrrupants to
seek place of safety. 1t is known that
two hundred women and children per-
ished in the ruins of the sacked buildings.
The insurgents seized the custom house
and then pillaged all the principal houses
in the city. After General SGto, command
cr OF the government forces had surrender
ed the city, the insurgent leaders landed
more troops from their vessels for the
purpose of holding the place, and dis
patched force into the country with the
object of meeting and engaging the gov
crnment troops,
