A correspondent of the American
Architect describes tho successful work
ing of Il novel Gre Escape. If the invcn-
ton is what it appear, to be It is very
ingenious, and likely TO prove of great
benefit TO mankind. A public trial of
It was made from the top Of the new
Masonic temple at Chicago.
The pocket fire escape consists of q
metallic tape ono-quarter of an inch
wide and thirty,sccond of an inch
thick. running on steel reel which is
fastened to q web belt passing about
the waist
The reel is provided with brake by
means of which the person can control
the speed of his descent There Is also
an automatic brake to keep a required
tension on the tcpe, and thus prevent q
sudden drop. Tho end of the tape Is
provided with thumb screw which
can be fastened TO the window sill or
any object II the room. In appearance
the machine is like fis.erm In's reel.
and is about twice tho size of spool of
thread
The beginning OF the experiment
seemed perilous in the extreme. The
inventor fixed the thumbscrcw. fast
ened the web bolt about his waist and
stepped of apparently into space from
the twentieth story.
At FIRST he descended slowly, then
faster.and faster, till 1t seemed he must
have lost control over the little ma
chine, the slender tapc Of which could
scarcely be seen. and at any time looked
NO larger than an ordinary cord.
At the tcnth story he stopped sudden
ly, md then descended again, rapidly
and slowly by turns. until he came to
the scaffolding where were several
workmen. There hes took three men
on the escape" with him, and thus
dropped to the ground

STRIKE DjAEOLiScj,
An Alleged Plot to Blow Up a Factory
With Dynamite.

An Alleged Plot to Blow Up Factory
With Dynamite.
CuICAo 90, June 4.-The Times Friday
morning contained startling story to
the effect that striking workmen have
been frustrated in their attempt to blow
up the McGregor boiler factory by q
mine Of dynamite. The plan which the
police say they have discovered shows
as great disregard for human life as
that displayed by the anarchists OF
Paris. According to the report wires
have been. found connecting the plant
with an electric battery and quantity
cf the deadly explosive. The plot seems
to have been deeply laid, from the in
formation which has come into the
hands OF the authorities
Three weeks ago three men took ROOMS
in the house at the opposite corner of
the street intersection from that occu-
pied by the boiler works Early Thurs
day morning similar trio were found
in the vacant lot adjoining the factory
by an officer Though suspicious looking
they were permitted to depart unmo-
Tested, but further investigation show
ed the existence of twin copper wires
run along the curbstone OF the
sidewalks and up telegraph
pole at its end. A large coil
of wire was also found lying
near the pole and box containing a
battery Of twenty-one cells In the rooms
occupied by them at 102 Francisco
street. Until the discovery OF dynamite
in the house later in the day IL was
supposed the tenants had intended to
make money by procuring early infor-
nation ON the racing ut Garfield park
track. But the find Of the explosive
recalled the fact that second telegraph
pole stands immediately behind the fac
tory and that nothing was more simple
when the fusewas once connected with
that on the pole than 10 explode. q
charge against the wall Of the boiler
works
The three men, the landlady OF the
house they occupied says, brought with
them large packing case which they
declared contained dishes. An examin-
alton OF It's contents by the detectives
revealed twenty-one jars Of electric bat
terry, while in remote closet OF the
mems bedroom was found a large pack
age Of dynamite.
Mr.. VIM. McGregr, the head Of
the factory Arm. says his nom
union men have been threatened with
violence since the strike Of May l. No
arrests have been made, but sensational
developments are promised

MISS r MONROE.

been before invoked for commemora-
tive deeds. A little over a year ago,
when the Auditorium of Chicago was
completed, to Miss Monroe was assigned
the writing of the "Dedicatory Ode"
President Harrison, Vice President Nor
ton, Chauncey Depew and many celeb
rites notable in civic and military life
honored the occasion with their pres
ence. The aid of that peerless song
bird, Patti, was invoked also. The ode
written by Miss Monroe was appropri-
ately and successfully set to music and
was rendered on that evening by the
Apollo club, a chorus Of mixed voices
second to none, and it was received
with enthusiastic applause.
In appearance Miss Monroe is rather
below medium height and is of slender,
fragile build. Her features are all good;
her mouth and chin are delicate and
finely cut. Her face is earnest and in
teresting; her coloring is pale and she
has beautiful chestnut hair and soft,
dark, hazel eyes. She is by birth a Chi
cagoan and received her education at
home and in the convent at Georgetown,
d. q. Her studies were supplemented

cities and during periods of foreign
travel. Friends, observing the enthusi-
asm aroused by her beauty, sweet grace
and bright mind, fondly predicted o
brilliant social career. Though yielding
at times to their persuasions, she never
became at all absorbed in n gay life,
choosing rather a students joys and the
companionship of q congenial few who
entered into close intimacy and sym.
pathy with her high ideals and worthy
ambitions.
A paper on shelley as Poet and Phi
losopher" first drew public attention to
Miss Monroe's literary efforts. This
essay was read and praised by Richard
Watson Glider, Edmund Clarence Sted-
man and Robert Louis Stevenson. Miss
Monroe has very cleverly dramatized
one of Mr.. Stevenson's New Arabian
Nights" stories, and her version has
been given by amateur players many
times. Miss Monroe has been numbered
among the poetical contributors to The
Century and for some time she was one
of the critics and literary reviewers Of
the Chicago Tribune.
There has recently been issued from
the De Winnie press, of New York, a book
from the pen of this fair poet containing
a tragedy entitled ''Valeria," and other
poems. The tragedy is written in blank
verse and comprises the major part of
the volume. The book is for private
circulation only, and is an edition de
luxe. Its exterior possesses a dainty
charm. 1t is dedicated to the late John

les and logic, aud IN intelligent enthu-
siast in music. In repartee she is quick
and keen, though never unkind. She
has remarkable social tact, which, with
her other gifts, has secured for her an
acknowledged position as n of the
most successful of the younger leaders of
society in the Worlds Fair City. Dame
Nature has dealt generously with her.
She is above medium height, and has
wide open, dark blue eyes and fair
brown hair. The features of her face
are regular, yet their beauty of form is
wholly subordinate to the bravery, in
dividuality, intellectually and gentle
ness of her countenance.
She plays no irregular or mongrel
game, but follows u system of play
founded upon law. She recognizes whist
as skill an~tagonizing or economizing
chance, and takes great mental satisfac-
ton in the game as a game of calcula-
ton. Indeed, this fair player regards
whist as a science rather than a game.
She thinks the student Of whist the stu
dent of combinations, their detail and
management. Mrs. Foltz plays her
cards las if the cards were couriers or
heralds or even statisticians," telling
their own tales and being the bearers of
exact and intelligent information

Miss Virginia Penny began her labors
for her sex at Il period when there were
but six occupations open to women and
has seen the number enlarged to be-
tween 300 and 400. Born and reared in
Kentucky, much of her original work
was done with special reference to the
women of the south, but she increased
the scope of her work until it embraced
women everywhere. She was a teacher
for many years until her health failed,
and made personal Investigations of the
opportunities for women anxious to Sc
cur employment. Her books, Employ
ment of Women" Five Hundred Occu-
pations Adapted to Women" How
Women Can Make Money" and Think

capacitated herfor work at the most in
opportune times, and her struggles for
woman in general were carried on at
the cost of all comfort for herself. Pow
erty compelled her to surrender her
rights in her literary productions for
very small returns, and now that she is
advanced in years and feeble she is
