II tratlon Building Is prOnOunc-
- ed the gem and crown of the
Exposition palaces. 1t is
located at the west end of the great
court in the southern part of the site,
looking eastward, and at it's rear
are the transportation facilities and
| depots. The most conspicuous OBJ
ject which will attract the gaze of
visitors on reaching the grounds is
the gilded dome of this lofty build
ing. This imposing edifce cost
S550,000. The architect is Richard
M. Hunt, of New York, President
of the American Institute of Archi-
tects, to whose established reputa-
ton it is notable contribution.
1t covers an area of $50 feet square
and consists of four pavilions 81 #.
square, one at each of the four
angles of the square, and connected
by great central dome 120 fit. in
diameter and 220 feet in height,
leaving at the center of each facade
q recess 80 feet wide, within which
are the grand entrances to the
building. The general design is in
the style of the French renaissance.
The first great story is in the Doric
order, of heroic proportions, sur
rounded by a lofty buIustrade and
having the great tiers of the angle
of each pavilion crowned with
sculpture. The second story, with
it's lofty and spacious colonnade, is
of the Ionic order.
The four great entrances, one on
each side of the building, are so
feet wide and so feet high, deeply
recessed and covered by semi-cir-
cular arched vaults, richly coffered.
In the rear of these arches are the
entrance doors, and above them
great screens Of glass, giving light
to the central rotunda. Across the
face of these screens, at the level of
the office floor, are galleries of COM
munication between the different
Ipavilions.
The interior features of this great

Between every two of the grand
entrances, and connecting the in
tervening pavilion with the great
rotunda, is a hall 80 feet square,
giving access to the offices aud

Above the balcony is the second
story, 80 feet in height. From the
top of the cornice of this story
rises the interior dome, 200 feet
from. the floor, and in the center is
an opening 80 feet in diameter
transmitting a flow of light from the
exterior dome overhead. The under
side of the dome is enriched with
deep panelings, richly moulded, and
the panels are filled with sculpture
in low relief, and immense paintings
representing the arts and sciences
In size this rotunda rivals, if it does
not surpass, the most celebrated
domes of q similar character in the
world.
Each of the corner pavilions
which are four stories in height, is
divided into large and small offices
for the various Departments of the
Administration, and Hobbies and
toilet rooms. The ground floor
contains, in one pavilion, the Fire

Just as the train drew up Mt Caney Mt

At the whistling post the outlaws or
dcrcd the engineer to stop and made
the fireman %uncouplc the express car
from the rest of the train. All this was
done so quietly that no onc in the

in the meantime blown out his lights,
barred and barricadcd the doors, and
made ready for desperate resistance.

no response and the robbers began fir

Wholesalers. Maxwell answered the
shots with his revolver for q few min

his right arm, which disabled him and
he was fain to surrender.
The robbers ordered him TO light his
lamps and open the a door and rs soon
as he had done so they entered the car
with the engineer in front of them as n
shield. Maxwell was then forced TO
open his safe and deliver up his watch
and personal property. The men then
backed of the car and disappeared in
the darkness.
Messenger Maxwell, who is now here
nursing his wound which is not serious,
declares that the robbers secured less

The men engaged In the work were
probably the same ones who last week

COFFEyvILLE, Kan, Oct 14-Again
Is this town the scene Of great excite.
mcnt Another train robbery has oc-
Cured almost at its doors and all day
wild rumors OF n contemplated attack
upon the city by the reorganizcd Dalton
gang have been afioat.
Yesterday morning a telegram signed
by Detective Dodge, of the Wells.Fargo
Express Co., and dated Wharton, l. T.,
vas received here. 1t stated that n
large body Of dcsperadoes had left that
place for ~Coffeyville for the purpose of
avenging the death OF the Daltons,
Powers and Broadwell.
The town was at once In an uproar.
Informal meetings were held and tcle-
grams were sent to Parsons and Kansas
City asking that Winchesters be shipped
at once. Everything is comparatively
quiet to-day, and very few people
really expect an attack; but IL one Is
made the invaders will get a reception
fully as warm as that accorded the
Daltons October 8.
There Is every reason to believe from
the actions Of some Of the men who
have visited Coffeyville that IL Emmett
Dalton RECEIVERS some steps will be
taken to liberate him. The following
letter received by John Kloehr, the
man who has the credit of killing three
of the Dalton gang, shows at least that
all OF the gang are n OF dead:

tion. We did not know IL was coming
on so soon. We thought 1t was coming
of November 8, we shall have revenge
for your killing OF Bob and Graf and the rest OF
them. You people had no cause TO take arms
against the gang. The b ,nkers will not help the
widows OF the men that got killed there and you
thought you were playing - fire when you killed
three OF us. but your tims will soon c)m, when
you will soon go into the grave and pass in your
checks for tho killing OF Bob and Joe Evans and

If ever a man fell under the spell Of

The Tree of Luck.

Staten-Islanders in the vicinity of
Fort WadsWorth relate an odd story
about tree which has grown up on
dock extending into the water from a
cliff just above the quarantine sta
ton. The dock is constructed OF
piling and logs, and extends from the
shore distance of about fifty feet, of
which twenty-five feet are made up
Of earth deposits between the piles.
In the center Of this earth rises an
enormous willow tree, around which
a fence has been built. Outside of
the fence heavy benches are placed,
on which the fishermen and others
who use the dock can take their COM
fort. 1t is related that when the
dock was first started in a small way,
nearly twenty-five years ago, a small
sprout came floating down the water
and was drifted so that it took root
in the earth, where it has now be-
come a great tree. The fishermen of
that day discovered it taking root,
Strengthened it up, protected it with
environments and have ever since de-
Tended it, so that they will not per-
NIT a person even to cut a twig from
it. They say that the tree has been
lucky to the dock, and that any man
who despoils it brings bad luck to
them.-NeW York Press.

Cautious.

The Bank of England's doors are
now so finely balanced that the clerk,
by pressing a knob under his desk,
can close the outer doors instantly,
and they cannot be opened again ex-
cept by special process. This is done
to prevent the daring and ingenious
unemployed of the great metropolis
from robbing the famous institution.
The bullion department of this and
other great English banking estab-
lishments are nightly submerged in
several feet of water by the action Of
the machinery. In some of the Lon
don banks the bullion departments
are connected with the managers
sleeping rooms, and an entrance can
not be effected without setting off an
alarm near the persons head. If a
dishonest official during the day or
night should take even as much as
one from a pile Of one thousand
sovereigns the whole pile would in
stantly sink and pool of water take
its place, besides letting every person
in the establishment know Of the

Made a Difference.

An uptown dry goods store in New
York last summer tried the expert
ment of giving soda water to its
patrons free. An enormous fountain,
well equipped for service was placed
in the back part Of the store, and on
each hot day half a dozen attendants
were kept busy serving clamorous,
thirsty and never diminishing crowd.
One day upward Of 1000 glasses OF
soda water were drawn from that free
fountain. This year the firm charges
8 cents a glass for its soda water, and
as a result the patronage has fallen
of to a remarkable extent. On two
very hot days sometime ago, although
the store was well filed with Gus
TONERS, the soda fountain at no time
was oVerWOrked.

cat was doing and was awakened by
the fiuttering of the bird. Instantly
she rose and struck the reptile with
her paw. This was an enemy the
snake did not appreciate, but it was

very shelter of the cats head.
Like a flash the cat seized the
snake just back of the head and
killed 1T with one bite When the
farmer happened along in the after
noon he found the cat crouching in
the grass sheltering the bird, and ten
feet away was the dead snake. This
made it clear that the cat had car
ried the bird away from the snake,
and the young adventurer was soon
restored to its anxious parents.
