Laborers without trades get 81 and
$3.50 per week, possibly some may
get as low as So. Educated labor in
the various trades get from Sl2 a

who get the latter and there may be
some who get as low as $40. These

for educated labor the prices are only
on the average OF 80 per cent. Of whu

facts that are beyond successful con

Why is there such difference be
tween wages in Great Britain and in
Wilmington? Simply because the in
dustries of Wilmington are protected
by tariff, not for revenue only" hut
for the sake Of protection. while Gre a
Britain has tariff for revenue only
that is, merely enough to bear the ex
penses OF the government, but not
cent for protection.
The Democratic party In its plat
form has declared this protection by
which the industries of Wilmington
are protected to be q Republican
fraud" and has declared In favor OF {
tariff the same as England, for ''reve

He must be blind who cannot Sc,

work of cabling the It'll street road was begun
Mt once and soon completed. When the law
was enacted requiring a change of motive power
on the avenue line the company was ready to go
ahead with the great work of cabling that line.
The work has been done, Mr.. Hurt says
without missing trip. The old road has been
taken away and new one of most expensive
character substituted without any interruption
OF travel over the line. While the planning and
construction of the road have constituted q
great work there is another thing quite as re-
markable that helped to bring about this trans
formation, and that is the financiering. The
expenditures involved in the change amount,
as stated, to 80, 5000 Quite large sum of
money to raise a capitalization of $500. 900.
In this matter Mr.. Glover's financial ability
of Invaluable use to the company. Such
vas the confidence of the stockholders and
public in the management and future of the
road that provision was made without trouble
for the great outlay. and all quietly done
that the general public was scarcely aware that
a big financial operation was going on. After
the plans had been settled upon for the avenue
line, Mr.. Glover. believing that he accomplished
what he had promised when he assumed part
in the management Of the road years ago, and
that was to make it the best road in the coun-
try. resigned from the directory in order to
give his attention to other interests.

The power house is probably the most expen-
sive structure of the kind ever erected. The
ground upon which it stands cost over half
million of dollars and the company expect to
spend fully that sum in erecting the six-story
structure. The area OF the building is perhaps
greater than any structure erected by private
enterprise in this city. The frontage one way
is PAL feet and the other 1876 feet Owing to
decided to erect a larger and more imposing
structure than was actually needed. The
principal front has been designed with
considerable attention to architectural beauty.
The main entrance. on the north front, is en-
rlched by stone arch ornamented with cary
ing and marble columns. The company will

the intention being to lease this portion of the
building for light manufacturing The problem
OF how to secure light and air in all
parts OF the building of this great size
has been solved by providing in the center
a court 63x10O feet. The rooms in each story
will be arranged in two tiers one opening on
the street front and the other on the court.
There will be no dark rooms or corners.

WILLARD HALL FIRST A CHURCH.
The building fronting on street and known
as Willard Hall was originally erected ss a
church and for a number OF wears was occupied
by the leading congregation Of Presbyterian in
this city. People who are not very old recall
the name Of Rev. DIR. laurie He served rs
pastor of this church from lsOS until his death in
1858. The church organized bv a number
OF persons who were connected with the As-o-
ciate Reformed Church in Philadelphia and
who came 20 this city when the seat Of govern
men; was removed here in 1900. Many OF them
were in the service OF the government. Joseph

concealed beneath the surface Of the ground.
This underground power house. however, ms il
may be termed, has been devised with q great
deal Of ability. The problem it has helped to
solve is the transmission Of power to the Balti-
more and Ohio loop, but the method by which
it is done represents high degree Of engineer
ing skill on the part Of Mr.. Upton.
HOW IT Is DONE.
In general it may be said that the B. and o.
cable is run by power received from tho navy
yard cable The latter, a. the Peace monu-
ment, passes under the B. and o. loop in
the same method o. that adopted at the
It'll street crossing, and instead Of passing
around the curve and continuing up
the avenue is carried in straight
line to a vault, when it passes around
wheel and then continues in a straight
line directly east to a vault, which is in
front of the Peace monument. In this vault
the cable passes around a wheel which gives
motion to the winding drums of the Balti-
more and Ohio cable, and then leav-
ing it continues in straight line up
the avenue. The movement given to the
winding drums Is about two-thirds the speed
which the main cable has. If the cable
is moving at the rate Of nine miles an hour the
drum is given a speed of six miles per hour.
The Baltimore and Ohio cable is passed around
wheel in the first vault is carried to the drums.
where it acquires its motion, and is then
pTouSut up INC oNeIuc W INC HuISc eHsiOH
vault and is returned on the loop. The STARS
artist has endeavored to show how this is done
and the accompanying cut will assist to make
clear the above explanation.
THE AVENUE POWER HOUSE.
All this engineering work is under
ground and must be taken in faith
by the public. But in the big power
house occupying the square fronting on the
south side of Pennsylvania avenue between 1917
and 14th streets it is possible to see the wheels
go around and to look upon the gigantic ma
chinery which furnishes the motive power for
the entire road. The location of the power
house was chosen because it is about the center
Of the road. From this power house, on the
l4th street side, will come three cables, one
going to Georgetown. the other to the navy
yard and the third to Mount Pleasant. Both
Of the west-bound cables will run through the
'ame conduit to the corner Of New York avenue

never spared in battle. 1t was organized in
1776. soon after the siege of Boston. while the
American army was in camp near the city of
New York. Care taken TO have all the
states from which the continental army was
supplied with troops represented in this corps.
FINALLY FIXED BY LAW.
Saturday, June IA, 1777, nearly a year after
the Declaration of Independence, the American
Congress resolved ''That the flag of the thirteen
United States be thirteen stripes. alternate red
and white; that the Union be thirteen stars.
white in blue field, representing a new con-
stellation." No record OF the discussion which
must have preceded the adoption of the stars
and stripes has been preserved and we do not
know to whom We are indebted for them. 1t
has been said that both the stars and stripes
have been suggested by the coat-of-arrns Of
Washington, which, by a singular coincidence,
contained both. The deeds Of valor and glory
performed under this banner Of thirteen stars
and thirteen stripes are too well known to need
to be recounted here. even if space would adj

On March 4, 1871, Vermont was admitted to

have been laid twenty-five miles of single
track. This means that for the entire dis
lance a trench between three and four feet
deep has been dug and a conduit con-
structed of concrete has been built in the
trench. supported by iron yokes. Upon this
iron framework are laid the rails of English
grooved girder pattern weighing eighty pounds
per yard and the slot rails weighing sixty-three
pounds per yard. When it is considered that
there have been some fifteen miles of this sort
of construction completed during the past year
it ia possible to obtain some idea Of the mag
nitude of the undertaking and the rapidity with
which il has been done.
