He Goes Out SEEMING aud Falls lnto the
River and is Drowned.
On Monday evening Samuel Wigger-
ton, who lived with his wife and one
child in Kirkwood, retired early, and
at about o'clock some friends called
and invited him to go with them on a
seining expedition in the Ohio river,
lie went with them, and this was the
last seem OF him except by the friends
he accompanied, From the best in
formation that could be obtained, 1t
was learned that the party went to the
river at u point just above the back
river wooden bridge, and Wiggerton
and companion went out in skih
with one end OF the seine. The seine
became fastened and, in trying to get it
loose, the skill was upset, throwing
Wiggerton and hla companion into the
river. The man who was in the skin
with Wiggerton swan ashore, and he
says the last he heard from Wiggerton
was when he called out, asking, do
you think you can make the shore?
Wlggerton sank and his companions
went home, and although it occurred
about two O'Clock Tuesday morning,
they said nothing about it until the
same morning at six o'clock, A force
OF men was ut once put to work drag
ging and SEEMING the river, but up to a
late hour last evening they had not
found the body,
For year and o half Wiggorton had
been freight conductor on the c., l..

LOCAL COUNCIL OF WOMEN.
Topics Considered and Acted Upon at
Yesterdays Meeting.

The regular quarterly meeting of the
Local Council was held yesterday afternoon
at the Propylaeum, and there large
attendance. Twenty-Five societies were rep
resented by the president a delegate. Aft
er the roll call the minutes of the June meet
ing were read by the secretary, Mrs. w. L.
Elder. Mrs. j. r. Nichols, president of the
Council. was in the chair. The question
of the payment of annual dues was decided
to be fixed for the annual meeting. A COM
mittee on wine rooms appointed at the last
meeting had done little, owing to the fact
that an election was at hand, and it was
thought to be useless to introduce it before
the retiring Council. One lady remarked
that she believed the election was to occur
to-day" Mrs. ]. l.. Ketcham was appointed
to succeed Mrs. E. G. Wiley on the commit
tee. The report in regard to holding a
congress in this city in November recon-
mended that the project be abandoned on
account of the season being too late to Sc
cure any OF the worlds fair celebrities to
take part. Mrs. May Wright Sewall made
the statement that women In this State
were eligible to any Office in the public
schools and, in accordance with this, a
committee, consisting of Mrs. j. s. Jenckes,
Mrs. j. L. Ketcham and Mrs. W. J. Hassel-
man, was appointed to post themselves
on when the school elections occur, the
qualifications, the school districts. popula-
ton, and what districts were the most open
TO the Introduction of women on the School
Board, and report at the next meeting
The cases OF States where women are on
boards were cited, and the fact that a larger
vote was polled in the district where wom-
an OF this city allowed her name to be used
as candidate for the position was consid-
cred favorable omen.
Mrs. Annie Buchanan, the police matron,
is anxious for house of detention, where
women who are arrested may be brought,
and not taken TO the police station, as they
now are, and she wishes committee APP
pointed to inspect the police station and ag
ftate the question. After discussion of
this question the meeting decided to APP
point standing committee to keep itself
and the Council posted on all legislative
and municipal matters of this kind Mrs.
Helen 3. Holman, Mrs. Grace Julian Clarke
and Mrs. Alexander Spruance were named
as this committee, with the former
chairman. a delegate from each society of
the Council will hereafter represent her So
ciety for the year, instead OF a different

What ..stan-, Is.

Great is ..staff." With staff at his
command Nero could have afforded to
fiddle at fire at least once year. One
of the wonders of staff as seen at Chicago
is its color. Grayish white is its natural
tone, and the basis of its success at Jack
son park, but it will take any tint that
one chooses to apply and maintain live
illness akin to the soft bloom of the human
skin. Staff is an expedient borrowed
from the Latin countries and much cul-
tivated in South America. Any child
skilled in the mechanism of mud pie
can make it, after being provided with
the gelatin molds and water mixture
of cement and plaster. How the work
man appeared to enjoy seizing handfuls
of excelsior or fiber, dipping them in the
mixture and then sloshing the fibrous
mush over the surface of the mold!
When the staff has hardened, the result
ant cast is definite. light and attractive.
A workman may walk to his job with
a square yard of the side of a marble
palace under each arm and a Corinthian
capital in each hand. While it is little
green, it may be easily sawed and chis-
eled, and nails are used as in pine. More
over, rough joints are no objection, since
a little wet plaster serves to weld the
pieces into a finished surface. In the
rough climate OF Lake Michigan staff is
expected to last about six years, which is
the average life of the ablest English
ministry. Great is staff!-C. c. Buel in
Century.

feet that there are people now living
who may travel by continuous rail from
Cape Horn to the Cape of Good Hope.
The plan OF 'pan-American" railway to
connect the South American systems,
through Central America, with the sys-
TENS of Mexico and the United States is
already well advanced.
There are to be roads from the Cana
dian Pacific away up to the Peace river
and Mackenzi evalleys. and it is not very
hard to believe that these may ultimate
ly be extended across the Rockies to the
Ukon valley III Alaska and continued
finally to the narrow and shallow Beh-
ring straits. across which connection
would be made with the Siberian road
Continuous rail travel from Siberia to
Constantinople will soon have become an
accomplished fact, and the link from
Constantinople to Egypt may be expect
ed quite confidently.
At the present rate of developments in
: Africa the construction of road from
Egypt to the cape ought to be realized
within 25 years. The channel tunnel
will of course have been built, and eloc-
tricity or some still more powerful mo-
tive force will have superseded steall, SO
that the Californians and Puget sound
denizens would naturally go to London
by fast Alaskan and Siberian express

The switchback. by means of which
the Great Northern railway crosses the
Cascade mountains in Washington, is
wonderful piece of engineering. When
Jim Fill. the president of the Great
Northern, decided to push his road from
Spokane to Puget sound. he had compar-
atively fair field at all points save one.
At that point he was confronted by
solid mass of granite which blocked his
line for about three miles, 1t was de-
termined to tunnel the mountain, but as
the excavation would be nearly three
miles in length and take three years to
complete it was decided to build tenn
porary road over the mountain in order
to open through connection with the
coast as soon as possible.
The temporary road crosses the crest
of the range through Stevens pass at an
elevation of 4.088 feet, and the different
attitudes are reached by system of
nine switchbacks. The road at one place
returns three times to within 500 feet Of
its former line, only little higher up
the mountain side, but it thus covers a
distance of four miles in curves. It
starts from Tunnel City on the east side
of the mountain and runs to Stevens
City on the west side. Both of these
places are the points which the tunnel
will connect when finished, and they
are 2e miles apart. yet to reach them
over the switchback distance Of 10
miles must be traversed.
There are five switches on the western
side Of the pass and four on the eastern
side. while the heaviest grade is 21l feet
to the mile. The survey was begun last
July. and when completed force of 700
men were put to work and the road rapid
ly pushed forward. The tracks were
connected Jan. ID, at which time the first
train went over the road. Two freight
trains a week are now being run over it,
but it will not be opened for passenger
traffic until April. San Francisco Chron.
