The Largest "Stand Pima

According to C. w. Hawkes., the
veteran builder of the great iron
water towers which grace nearly
every city in the United States, the
largest stand pipe in the world is
that at the corner of Seventeenth
and Croker streets, Des Moines. II
was built during the early months
Of 1891 and is situated on the highest
ground in that portion of Iowa's
capital. The tower is twenty odd
feet across and is 1876 feet in height,
made of 20 courses of great iron
plates, the bottom tier being an inch
in thickness, gradually thinning
out" until TIE last course is scarcely
the fourth of an inch through. The
pipe" has capacity of $50, 900 gal
Ions and is provided with a winding
stair fron1 bottom to top.-St. Louis

No Trouble Getting Zoo In Calcutta.

No Trouble Getting Zoo In Calcutta.
In our Calcutta committee it was
my principal duty to look after the
collection of the animals At first the
natives did not seem to understand
our object. They brought to us
calves with two heads or goats with
five legs and such other monstrosi-
ties. One native lady was much dis
appointed that we would not accept
from her a cat which had been beau
tifully dyed magenta color. This
cat had been one of the principals in
famous cats wedding, conducted
according to Hindoo ceremonial, on
which this lady and some of her
friends had spent upward of 81 900.
There were of course many ami
mails that we did not want, such as
Brahminy bulls, OF zebus as they are
called in England, or tame buffaloes,
or jackals, or Indian dogs. And we
soon had a surplus of monkeys and
young leopards.
Any one who kept a pet monkey
or young leopard was ready to send
it as a present to the zoo as soon as
it had done some mischief or shown
itself dangerous to the children of
the family So also as regards the
little black bears, which are plentiful
in lower Bengal.-Longman's Maya

The Advice of a Butler.

Fashionable methods do not always
commend themselves to the common
sense of everyday people, who are
apt to think more of comfort than of
mere aesthetic considerations. At an
"at home" of Genesee valley gen.
tleman's wife, the footman was call
ed upon to do duty as a butler. He
was much taken aback by the ex-
IRENE thinness of the slices of bread
and butter with which he had to
serve the guests. Finally, as he was
passing the plate to an old dowager
for the third time, he remarked i'm a
very audible whisper, IF you slap
three or four slices together, mum,
maybe you can get bite. Buffalo

of the Routine and Habits Of
the Government Employees.

Something of the Routine and habits Of
the Government Employees.
A great many young men secure
places in the departments merely for
the purpose of supporting themselves
while they are studying in the great
schools of law and medicine here.
Matters are SO arranged at these in
situations that a clerk who stops
work at p. N. can get dinner and
be on hand for the evening lectures
which begin at 6.
The annual vacation of the clerks
is Is days, in addition to which they
are allowed 30 days sick leave in each
year.
Whenever there is legal holiday,
there is usuallya half holiday on the
day previous. The clerk takes the
working part of that half day off.
This gives him two days clear. But
on the day before the half holiday
he goes to the chief of his bureau
and asks permission to leave at 2:30
p. m, SO as to catch train.
Thus the single day'Sholiday is ex-
banded into two days and a half.
The ingenuity with which such af-
fairs are managed is said to be won
derful However, it should be ex-
planned that two-thirds of the en-
ployees rarely take day of the sick
leave allowed them.
If clerk is absent on account of
illness over 20 days in any year, he
or she must pay a substitute The
civil service commission provides all
the substitutes that are wanted. It
is provided that the clerks shall give
to the substitute q neutrality-suspicious.
of the pay, usually amounting to
about per cent.
By thus hiring substitute clerk
! might retain his place in the service
of tne government for years, though
! himself blind, paralyzed and confined
to his bed; In all cases of sickness q
physicians certificate is required.
Not long ago the treasury depart
ment made rule to the effect that
such certificates must always state
the nature Of the complaint. But the
local medical society resolved in for
NAL council that such thing was out
of the question, and so the regulation
fell to the ground,
Any secretary can by a simple or
der increase the working hours of
the clerks in his department to any
extent which he thinks Desirable
