with which Allan North started out,
after carefully noting the address Of the
Times building. what facile quill
he wieldsl / dare say he doesn't exag-
gerate Noll's popularity in the least.
Noll Is just the sort Of fellow to take
everyone by storm, and have already
had abundant evidence Of the devo-
tion that Is showered upon him here
In K; devotion Of which am
just now the unworthy recipient-the
lightning rod toward which run all tho
currents Of electricity with which the
political atmosphere is overcharged.
The bright sunlight Of popular favor Is
somewhat dazzling to my unaccus-
toned eyes; 20 wonder that 30 many
public men, after baslsing for a long
time In its rays, become no defective In
their visual organs that they cannot tell
black from white or right from wrongr
With these rambling reflections North
pursued his way TO the Times building,
a large and pretentious granite struc-
ture on one of the principal business
streets, aud but few blocks from the
Clement house.
AS North approached he saw group
Of gentlemen standing on the steps OF
the building, engaged In heated and
informal debate on some political ques-
ton. II was evident from their vehe-
ment and threatening gestures, their
reckless and extravagant expressions
and tho unceremonious freedom with
which contradictions and epithet were
passed TO and fro, that there were some
decided differences Of opinion in course
Of ventilation; and, as North passed
calmly through the excited crowd with
a gracious acknowledgement Of their
salutations, he said to himself; .f.

individual, whom he was with much
gracious hand-shaking and fraternal
patting on the shoulder dismissing
from his presence.
At sight of North these parting cour-
tesies were abruptly suspended
'Is that you, North2" came in tones
Of sonorous greeting from the tall,
portly gentleman, while the other
seized North's hand and wrung it vio-
lently. 'T've been wondering where
You were. Glad to see you. Come in"
"Well, good day, Clipper; I'll see you
again Tomorrow" said the departing
caller; and, while he made rush for the
elevator, Col. Clipper, having trans
ferred his hnnd-shalsing to North, drew
him into his private Office and closed

The Original Artificial waterfall.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
In a recent issue of The Star appeared an
article copied from the New York Herald
and headed "A Great Artificial Waterfall"
and claiming that the feat of making a
mountain stream run over and above a
railroad track-which feat is to be attempt
ed on the Southern Pacific railroad near
wright's station. Calls a novel and unique
piece of engineering.
Permit me to say that there is nothing
novel or unique about Il, inasmuch as the
same engineering feat was accomplished
in Switzerland in 1850. on the Swiss West

near the northeastern end of Lake I,eman
where the "Neveyse," a small but rapid
mountain stream, was encountered
The mountains there come quite dou-n
to the lake-their slopes being covered with
vineyards-and the ground is OF course
expensive. To raise the railroad track sniff
GENTLY to pass over the stream would have
required q long ernbankment and inyolyed
much expense. To tunnel under the stream
was out of the question. inasmuch as IL
would have brought the railroad track.
which is very near the lake. below the lat

being submerged in times of high water
The chief engineer, a Frenchman, whose

on the happy idea to raise the bed of the

before. and its inception and successful
completion brought much fame and a decor

Frank Baker. the manager Of the zoo. has
been notified by Mr.. McCaddon that he
might have the selection OF some nifty ami
mails for exhibition here during the

for the reception OF so large

cept quite q number Of them. and superin-
tendent Blackburn Is expected here today

necessary dens and cages for the reception
here OF many OF the animals. but work upon
them is already In progress and the major
ity of them will be safely housed In the ZOO
within a comparatively short time.
Owing TO the limited accommoda tons and
resources OF the zoo a herd Of
eleven elephants and a herd of

among the American animals which viii
be taken will be three or four panthers. two

admired at the zoo during the past summer
months, was also loaned to the roo by Mr..

handsome animal to the ZOO. During the

The -looked-for report of the judicial
committee on the Briggs case was present
ed Thursday to the New York Presbyt arian
Synod at Rochester.
The report was read by Rev. DR.. Miller
After case Of minor importance had been
disposed Of the committee struck at the
root of the matter by reporting five COM
plants signed by DR.. Briggs and others
in reference to occurrences on the two
trials of DIR. Briggs by the presbytery of
New York.
The committee in reporting the complaints
says:
THE merits of that case have all been
heard on appeal in two general assemblies
In the general assembly of 1889 the whole
case was heard at great length and a final
judgment was rendered at that time tv
that assembly covering the whole case
This. in our opinion. clearly and finally dis
poses Of all interlocutory questions in those
cases. no matter when those cases We're
pending"
DR.. Miller added: Il am glad to be able
to add that no minority report will be pre-
scented. The vote was harmonious. one of
the brethren asking to be excused from vot-
ing. and Of course his request was granted"
The report was accepted.
