THE WALL FELL.
THE FRONT WALL OF MAJOR FUR
REY's STORE TUMBLEs.
A Startling Accldent Last tNight-Danger4
Gus Electric Light Wires.
No One Hurt. j

About $50 square feet of the front
wall above Furrey's hardware store, or
North Main street, fell to the sidewalk
last night at 10 O'Clock with tremen'
dous crash, carrying down with it part
of the heavy granite cornice. As this
large mass of material came down i,
struck two electric light wires, breaking
them, and the lights on the west side o.
the streets went out.
Even &C that late hour an old colored
man was standing on the roof picking
bricks asunder, and it is surprising that
he did not come down with the ma.
terial.
For time the broken wires presented
danger to those who went to examine
the damage, but a young man with
great presence of mind telephoned to
the Electric Light company to turn of
the current. There were not many
people on the street in consequence OF
the lateness of the hour and so FORUM
ately no one was hurt, although the
bricks and stonework few into the
street almost up to the rails of the cable
car track.

paving materials nt home must DO an

where. Its production at home would
give employment "a home labor, and as
many miles of payements must be laid
in this city from year toyear for all time
to come, it is important that material
that seems destined to come into gen
eral favor should be produced and laid
by Omaha labor. From the standpoint
OF local interest and economy the sub
ject is worthy OF consideration.

STREET PAVING AND HOME LABo

STREET PAVING AND HOME LABOR.
In an address at Chicago under tho
auspices of the department Of political
economy of the Northwestern univer-
sity Charles Il. Davis discussed the sub
ject OF public roads and street paw
ing. His remarks upon the latter di-
vision OF his subject were OF a practical
character and evinced considerable
familiarity with q problem that has a
deep interest for every city. One of the
most crushing burdens resting upon the
taxpayers of cities is that caused by the
necessities of street paving. 1t is one
of the burdens that cannot be shifted to
the shoulders OF future generation, nor
can it with any profit to the taxpayer
be lightened by the adoption OF tenn
porizing policy Experience has demon
strated in the city of Omaha and every
where else, that poor pavement is more
costly in the end than good one, and
the only question remaining is, what is
the cheapest good paving material?
After reciting the objections to as
phalt, granite and wood Mr.. Davis de-
clares that vitrifed brick is form of
paving material which fulfills all re-
quirements, provided that it is made of
the right kind OF clay and properly
burned and then laid upon solid foup-
dation of concrete. In the city of Chi
eago. in front OF the freight depot OF the
Chicago Burlington & Quincy railroad
Is brick pavement that has been in use
for three years, with an average OF A, 600
teams passing over it every day, and yet
it shows little or no signs OF wear, ac-
cording to the statements OF the
speaker referred TO. 1t is also
stated that Galesburg, Ill.,, has bricb
pavements that have been In use for
moro than nine years and have never
required the expenditure of single
dollar in repairs. Philadelphia has
over sixty miles of such pavements and
Columbus, o., has mora than fifty miles
Some 300 cities and towns in the United
States have turned to vitrifed brick as
the solution OF the paving problem.
For obvious reasons the production o.

FUEL IN ENGLAND AND AMERICA

1t is not impossible that the vast and
apparently ineXhaustible coal deposits
in the United States may yet play very
important part in the commercial com
petition between this country and Eng
land. 1t is we'll known that England
can produce only small part of the
food supply required by her people and
that the only way in which the people
can be fed is by exchanging the products
of the factories for the food products
of other countries. 1t is clear
enough that America must in
the future supply England with the
greater portion of her bread and meat,
and if reliance is to be placed upon re-
cent estimates OF the available English
coal supply, it is reasonable to expect
that in time, and perhaps before many
years, we shall have to supply England
with many products in the manufacture
OF which cheap fuel is necessary.
Observations recently made in Great
Britain by Edward Atkinson, the well
known statsticiun and economist, indi-
cate that the coal supply OF that country
is rapidly approaching state OF prac-
tical exhaustion; that is, that it is be-
coming enormously expensive to mine
on account OF the great depths reached
apd the small seams now worked. The
| increase in the cost of coal has amounted
to Sc, 500, 900 for that used by the British
railways in single year. 1t is stated
that in many mines the larger veins have
been driven so deem that they can be
worked no longer, so that the companies
are compelled to fall back upon thin
veins previously passed as being too in
significant to be worthy of notice.
The price of coal in London and
at all OF the factories using it has
greatly increased, and the supply of
cokiug Goals used in the manufacture of
steol is approaching exhaustion. The
Durham mines are 1000 feet deep and
even at that depth the veins are only
two feet in thickness. The price OF coke
for steel making is So ton against 81, 40
in Virginia and Sl,2o in Pennsylvania.
All kinds OF appliances for economizing
fuel have been adopted by British manu-
facturers, but the consumption OF the
supply that nature has planted under
English soil must necessarily continue
at an increased rate year by year unless
science shall provide some cheap sub
stitute for coal as fuel.
1t is not TO be supposed that the actual
quantity OF coal hidden in the depths o.

THE projectors of the canal by which
a portion of the Platte river is to be
brought to Omaha have already com
menced the work OF surveying the
route, which indicates that they mean
business and do not propose to lose any
time. The enterprise is an important
one and its completion may mark the
beginning of new era in the industrial
life of Omaha. Tho chief excuse given
by the business men OF this city for not
engaging more extensively in manufac-
turing is that fuel for power is too
costly. If this canal fulhlls expecta-
tions it will solve that problem in u

The railway postal clerks are sub
jected to greater peril in the perform
ance of their duties than any other
class of government employees. Post
master General Wanamaller has several
times recommended system OF pay
ments to the widows or minor children
of these hard worked public servants
who may meet death ir the line of duty,
the money for that purpose to be taken
from the funds arising from the fines of
negligent clerks. The matter has re-
ceived some attention from congress, but
without practical result. There can be
no sound objection TO the recommends
tion OF the postmaster general and the
men in whose behalf it is made are
worthy of such consideration.
