election IL maintained that position.
The Judge has his adherents and ad-
mirers in all parties. He has been
praised for his impartiality in all de-
cisions. Those who had been his
clients previous to his elevation to
the bench come before him with
some trepidation, because it is be-
lieved that, in his desire not to be
influenced by such considerations,
he is more likely to favor the other
side. though in reality he dissipates
from his mind all other considera-
tions, and administers even and ex-
act justice. For these and many
other reasons we consider that Hon.
4. O. Furst would be model candi-
date for the Supreme Court vacancy

The above editorial clearly sets
forth the sentiments of the people
in the interior of the State. Judge
Furst has served seven years as a
Common Pleas Judge, and has had
fewer reversals in the Supreme
Court than almost any other Judge
in commission. The Central portion
of the State has strong claims for
the nomination upon the question
of locality, as it has had no repre-
sentative upon the Supreme Bench
since the days since the days of
Judge Burnside and it would be be-
coming to Snyder county as a neigh

A BosToNlAN's UNIQUE TOWER.

Huge Roller Coaster Proposed for
the Worlds Fair.
The most unique design yet submitted
for tower for the Columbian Exposition
is that of Mr.. j. E. Hartman, Jr., of Bos-
ton, and of which we present sketch.
Mr.. Hartman has not only designed an
observatory tower, but has combined
with it the novel feature OF winding
slide all the way from the top to the bot
tom.
This scheme would give passengers the
opportunity of viewing the magnificent
scenery and beautiful buildings OF the
Fair from the different attitudes as they
come down, each time describing larger
circles and covering more space until they
reached the bottom.
1t will be seen that the proposed tower
consists Of four double main columns,
coming together at the top, on which
rests building to be used az an observa-
tory and for other purposes. Running
from the centre at the bottom, perpen-
dicularly to the top is a shaft, to be used
in carrying up the elevator cars and pas
sengaTs.
The Portland daily press., 1892-05-07

PROPOSED WORLDS FAIR TOWER.
1t is proposed that each car shall have
guide or conductor, and be arranged to
carry ten passengers. Starting from the
bottom OF the tower, the car would be
carried up to the top, where the party
alights, and party ready to descend
taken in.
The car then leaves the elevator we'll,
and enters upon the slide that is to carry
it back to the starting point.
This slide descends On about five per
cent. grade; the car to be controlled by
automatic brakes as well els by the con-
ductor. The sides OF the slide are pro-
tected by steel gratings, and it has water
and sun proof top.
When the car has almost reached the
ground the grade ascends again and
brings the car to standstill by the time
it reaches the starting point.
The architect has not affixed any defin-
lite height to the tower, which could vary
from that of Bunker Hill monument to
the height OF the famous Eiffel tower. II
the tower was 500 feet high the slide
would be about 1.9 miles long; If 1000 feet
high, the slide would be nearly four miles.
The cars would be kept a reasonable
distance apart, and not travel any faster
than the electric street cars.
The structure is designed to be made Of
steel and the slide is supported by wire
cables and rods. 1t would all be made in
sections, and bolted and rivetted together,
and could be eaaily transferred by taking
it apart.

The Cotton Picker.

The future of the Cotton Picker can be
judged by the results obtained from all
labor-saving inventions of the past. The
Grain Harvester is nearer parallel case
than any other. 1t was a recognized
want; SO is the Cotton Picker. Each
harvests a product that is daily used by
nearly every inhabitant of the globe.
he grain is eaten and the cotton worn.
as rule, the inventions pay best which
supply the needs of the largest number.
The Harvester gathers grain to feed
nearly every one on earth, and the colos-
sal fortunes of Mccormick, Wood, Deer
ing, and hundreds of others, are the result.
The Lone Star Cotton Picker will
gather cotton to clothe the entire inhab-
itants of the earth, with the exception of
the Eskimos, who wear furs, and the
Africans, who wear smiles, and greater
fortunes than McCormick's or behring's
will be built by it.
The relative saving is greater. An
able man, with a simple cradle, which
was in use before the harvester, can save
SIS worth of wheat each day on an
average. }
An able man, with his hands, the only
method employed before the advent of the
Lone Star Cotton Picker, can save only So
worth of cotton in day on the average.
And, as its saving over old methods is
greater, SO the relative demand for it is
greater. The grain harvester was built
by a half-dozen competing firms. The
Lone Star is the only Cotton Picker.
Each of the companies building grain
harvesters built colossal fortunes for
their shareholders. The company own
ing the exclusive right to build Lone Star
Cotton Pickers should make more money
than they all, and you can share in it by
purchasing stock, the money to be used
to build the machines so badly needed.
A full-sized machine can be seen, and its
operation learned, at 81 Milk Street, Bos-
ton, where stock can be purchased.

A Celebrated Cafe.

Most American tourists who have
visited Paris have partaken of the hospi-
tally of the Cafe Procope. This his
toric restaurant will soon he destroyed,
much to the regret of literary men whose
researches occasionally call them to
Paris. For over 200 years, or since the
time Of Louis XIV, the Cafe Procope has
been the favorite resort of authors, ac-
tors, scholars, poets and wits. Voltaire
and Rousseau were as familiar with it's
chairs and Its viands century ago as
Gamoetta and Rochefort have been in
recent tunes, and its successive keepers
have always been ready to point out the
tables occupied at various periods by the
celebrities of Paris. The Cafe Procope
Is to be demolished in order to give place
to more stylish edifee.

Building a Yacht and Selling Gems.
The king Of Siam has ordered yacht
of 1900 tons displacement to be built for
him at Leith. The vessel is to be con-
structed Of the best steel and will be
lighted by electricity. The cabin ar
rangements are to be on the most extern
sive and luxurious scale, but the yacht
will be practically very speedy armed
cruiser, as she is to carry fourteen heavy
guns. The king of Siam. by the way,
has sent quantity of splendid jewels to
Europe for sale, principally yellow dia-
monds and unset rubies. His agent has
recently arrived in Paris from Vienna,
where he is reported to have experienced
some unpleasant adventures, as the po-
lice suspected him of having stolen the
jewels and would not suffer him to pro-
coed on his journey until they had COM
municated with the Siamese minister at
Berlin. The king of Siam possesses one
of the largest and most valuable collec.
tions of precious stones in the world.

Oh, heart Of mine, we shouldn't
Worry SO!
What we've missed of calm we couldn't
Have you know.
What we've met of stormy pain
And OF sorrows driving rain,
We can better meet again,
If it blow.
We have erred in that dark hour,
We have known,
When the tears fell with the shower.

Were not shine and shower blent

Let US temper our content
With his own.

So, forgetting all the sorrow

Let US fold away our fears
And put by our foolish tears,
And through all the coming years
Just be glad.
