THE IDAHO BUILDING.

che fairness of his fellow countrymen
ul1akes it hard for him to believe they will
not soon do so. As to common things, like
music and machinery, space and local
transportation, the naked figures are star
cling. One comparison will illustrate this.
The machinery at the Philadelphia Cen
stennial was really driven by little more
sShan 1000 horsepower, and quite recently
the company engaged in utilizing the force
OF Niagara rails estimated the combined
motive strength of all the mills and facto-
ries in Buffalo at only 40, 900 horsepower.
Well, the central plant at Chicago will
supply 25, 900 horsepower, with a 5000 re-
serve for water pressure. Boilers, forty in
number. will stand in one solid battery; a
vast furnace with twenty feet depth will
extend in sections under the plant, and
visitors can view the whole furnace and
boiler front operation from gallery above.
The great triumph of science in the mat
ter of applied power will be the e. p. Allis
engine of 1900 horsepower, which will
drive two Westinghouse incandescent
dynamos of 10000 lights each. Two other
engines will be Of 1000 horsepower each,
while fOrty-five more will range from 600
down to $50 horsepower.
The fact that every race of mankind, and
almost every tribe, no matter how small or
remote, will be represented is mere COM
'monplace; that has been done in Paris and
London. But it is now assured that the
vegetation of almost every section of the
searth's surface will be shown. Among the
botanic marvels already on the grounds are
sthe great ferns of Australia, the complete
set of native plants from southeastern Asia,
the dwarf trees and cultivated flowers
from Japan, and the long list of cacti and
'other curious growths from Mexico and
Central America. Such are few, and but
but few, Of the many wonders of the COM

DIR. HAMMoND's FAREWELL.
The Evangelist's Final Service In Sa
vannah Last Night.

Rev. E. p. Hammond conducted his
farewell service last nightat Wesley Mon
umental church.
DIR. Hammond has an inexhaustible
stock of stories, and never lacks one to
point moral. Last night he unburdened
himself of a number, and to each applied
a different lesson. He said that at one
time in Rochester, n. Y, he felt himself
at a loss for story, and
as he stood striving to remem Der
one the words of Tennyson's immortal
poem, THE Charge ofthe Light Brigade"
flashed across his mind. Half uncon-
sciOusly he commenced to recite it with
all the accompanying gestures, and at its
end he eXhorted his hearers to charge
forward in the cause Of Jesus, as the 800
charged at BalakIava.
II was afterward taken to task about
this incident" continued DR.. Hammond.
The pastor OF the church l was preach
ing in at the time, wanted to know why
grew so dramatic, and asked me
what religion there was in The
Charge of the Light Brigade ,
My other friends also expressed
themselves as much surprised at my &C
ton, and in the end | felt quite ashamed
at what had done, but my friends, did
not know what was coming. While at
my breakfast the next morning rap
came at the door, and when opened it
was confronted by as fine a specimen of
manhood as | had ever seen Sir he
said, Il am one of the men who were left
after that charge, and from the time
rode back to the lines unframed until
now l have never thanked God for sparing
my life. Your sermon of last night opened
my eyes to my wickedness and ingrati-
tude, and l now return thanks to the God
who brought me out of the Jaws of death
unscathed.n
"That mans name was Godfrey, and
soon after the night | related the story at
Rochester, said DR.. Hammond, the
matter came to Lord Tennyson's ears.
and have yet in my possession the letter
he wrote me, asking TO have the interest
| ing story published, which was soon after
done in an English paper"
In the course of his remarks DR.. Ham
mond said that at the time when Lon
don's population was about 100000 peo-
pie, clergyman friend of his figured out
that if 200 Christians saved one
soul each for one year, and the
next year 400 saved one each, and so
on for fourteen years, doubling every
year, at the end of that number of years
all London would be converted.
Nov take little savannah said the
reverend gentleman, land let every
Christian present here tonight do his
utmost toward converting his friends,
and let us see what the rensult will be.
At the conclusion of DR.. Hammond s
remarks there were short talks by Drs.
| Bowman, Dripps and Mr.. Robinson. DR..
Hammond goes from here to Jacksonville.

STRUCK BY A COTTON BALE.

Frank Barker Probably Fatally In
jured and Patrick Flanagan Slightly.
Frank Barker, longshoreman, about
45 years of age, was struck and fatally
hurt by the fall of cotton bale on the
river front yesterday morning.
Barker and a fellow longshoreman,
Patrick Flanagan, We're at work in the
hold of the British steamship Imperial
Prince, loading cotton at the Central
press. The steamship Gladiolus, which
lay outside the Prince was also loading
cotton across the latter's deck This is
done by hooking the bale, and swinging it
across on a gang plank. The bale that
hurt Barker slipped from the hook, and,
falling directly into the hold, hit him in
the back OF the head, and the other end
swinging around, struck Flanagan, max
ing an ugly cash in his head.
StevedOre Graham telephoned for the
police ambulance, and for Drs. Brandt
and Dunn. AS soon as the ambulance ar
rived Barker and Flanagan were taken
to St. Joseph lntirmary. An examina-
ton of Barker showed that his skull was
fractured. He was unconscious up to last
night, and breathing heavily. Very little
hopes are entertained of his recovery
Flanagans injuries are slight.
Barker boarded at No. 20 East Broad
street, and has been sixteen years in the
employ of the Central press. He was q
sober, steady man. and had many friends
He has no relatives in Savannah, but has

pire sometimes has TO punish the side not
in possession of the ball for interference,
and what is called of side play For
instance, if the side not in possession of
the ball wastes too much time in "scrap-
ping" so as to prevent the other from
putting the ball in play, the umpire sends
10 back five yards. When man is deli b.
erate'y thrown by an opponent after
making free catch the penalty also is
five yards.

announced by the umpire. When ofside
plays occur the ball is brought back to
where it started from on the last play.
