From an Authority on Rocks.

Said well-known book lover and au-
thority on art works: " / have seen eight
or 10 different Worlds Fair books and
the NEWS Magic City, is the hand
soonest, most accurate and with the best
selection OF views of any of them. Take
one little point for instance. Most OF the
publications print a photograph
the Fine Arts Building with the
statue of Victory on top. The statue OF
Victory was i'm the original model, but it
was never put on the actual building. That
shows that the photographs were not taken
from the building as finally completed.
Other books show staging about some OF
the buildings, demonstrating that the pic
lures were taken before the completion
of the buildings. The pictures i'm
the Magic City are absolutely correct,
just as the buildings actually were built
and taken at time and from point OF
view that makes them most picturesque
and effective

FIRE STATION NEWS.
Old Houses to be Enlarged and New
One Built.

Captain Horace Griswald was in Con-
C Ird, N. ii, last week.
Joseph Golden of chemical engine No.
has been suspended, the cause being that
he did not awake when the alarm from
box ii came nor did he when the recall
was sounded.
Some time ago Chief Leisure and the
committee on fire department OF Spring
field, visited this city for tie purpose of
inspecting the Champion water tower.
They also visited other cities for the same
purpose. 1t has been decided to procure
a tower of the same make as the one in
commission in this city.
Robert Hopkins, former resident OF
this city, on his way from Wyoming tc
this city called upon Tom Monahan,
another Providence boy, who is now
located at st. Louis, Mo. Tom was found
in charge of q handsome team of horses,
consisting of two pairs which he drives to
fire with "jerk line" or in other words
one line, which would be something of
novelty TO most of the residents of this
city. Monahan was formerly in the en-
ploy of the Union Railroad Company.
The members OF the city government
who reside at Washington Park are not in
favor OF the "dog trot" fate that is now
in vogue In the department.
Preparations are being made to enlarge
the quarters of Hose Company No. 3 on
IOuu stISel. 1nis company RESPONDS 10
the largest number of alarms during the
year and the house is the least adapted to
fire service ofany in the city. Only one
horse can come to the pole at time. The
house will be built out i'm the street.
Newport has adopted the Gleason and
Baily Aerial Life car services.
Hosernan John L. Little of Hose No. 13,
who has been at the Rhode Island Hospital
for number OF months, was able to spend
Sunday with his family.
Nearly all OF the steamer and ladder
companies are equipped with four horses
and two drivers.
The house OF Hose No. IL on Oakland
street is being painted and whitewasbed.
There will be good time in Veteran
Firemens' Hall, Thursday, March 1st, as
the few members of the department and
the captains of the different companies
are to celebrate the 10th anniversary of
the paid department.
The committee has about decided to
build handsome brick fire station on
Broad street near the entrance to Roger
Williams Park. The residents of Auburn
dale have applied for apparatus and il is
thought by the committee that a station
in this locality will answer for Washing
ton Park and Auburndale.
The house OF Co. No. in Benevolent
street is to be enlarged.
Those who ought to know say that
nothing will be done in the Legislature
IN reference to the fire commission bill.

A COOL MOTORMAN
Prevents Serious Disaster TO Sleigh
load OF Prisoners.

Thirty-six prisoners and four deputy
sheriffs are profuse in their praise of
the motorman who drove Pawtucket
car No. 231 last Saturday. A sleigh drawn
by six horses and containing a load of
prisoners who had been to the county
court To take part In the criminals ar
raignment was coming down Waterman
street at 2:10 p. m. when the combination
OF steep hill andheavy load proved to much
for the horses, and the sleigh, i'm technical
parlsnce, iran away" AS IL coasted down
the hill toward Main street track, car 23i
came bowling along. Motorman and sleig b
driver became mutually aware of each
others presence when scarcely $50 ieet
apart. The GOODNESS of the motorman
alone prevented a serious accident. He
reversed bis car and slid back out of the
way OF the approaching sleigh, missing il
by scarcely two feet. The prisoners were
chained together in quartets and a col
lision would have resulted most seriously.

JOHN QUINN's CONDITION.
A Rumor That He Had Recovered
Consciousness Untrue.

A rumor was current this morning that
John Quinn who was so brutally assaulted
last Monday had recovered sciousness.
A visit TO the hospital, however, disclosed
the fact that while Quinn had moments
when he appeared to be perfectly rational
be had not been able TO relate connected
story Of the assault.
While he was rational for a longer time
than usual yesterday, he relapsed into un-
consciousness again this morning, and
when he was seen he spoke only I'm the
most disconnected manner.
"How are you this morning, Mr..
Quinn % was asked.
"Oh, I'm all right" was the reply. az

EVER THE SAME.
Egypt Not Much Different Than It Was
Centuries Ago.

Centuries Ago.
The characters in ssThe Thousand
and One Nights may be almost i'm
agined to step out of their setting Of
words and to take form and glow with
the generous warmth Of life before
ones very eyes. The natives still
drink the same coffee and out of the
same cups; they smoke the same pipes;
they wear generally the same dress;
they play the same primitive instru-
ments that whisper the same strange
and plaintive tones; the funeral pro-
cessions wend their way along the
streets as of old; the popular festi-
walls or moolids are still observed with
the same untiring capacity for enjoy
ment: the public reciters still prac-
tice their profession before admiring
crowds: the water carriers still carry
their burdens so welcome to thirsty
lips: except in the houses of the rich
and thoroughly Europeanized food is
same manner, and the hands are
washed with the same basins and
ewers; the mosque of El-Azhar still,
says the Gentleman's Magazine, at
tracts its crowds of students.
Even the old wooden locks and keys
ARE still in use. and the water jars are
still kept cool in the lattice work of
the overhanging mushrabiyeh win
dow frames. Instances of this sort
might be multiplied a hundred fold.
1t is indeed wonderful change and
contrast that is presented to the eye
when you leave the European and
enter the native quarter. And the
mind and feelings turn in unison and
become attuned to the changed scene.
The sense of taking part in a new
and different life steals over you, and
you temporarily throw off your affinity
with the west and the nineteenth cen
,tury. The clock of time is for the mo-
'ment put back for you.

Orphans in Australta-

According to the Medical Times Of
Philadelphia Australia is country
without an orphan asylum. Every
where local committees keep record of
families with which destitute child
may be placed, and the children's COM
tmittee of the destitute board selects a
home suitable for each child that comes
under its care. On an average one dol
lar and twenty-five cents week is al
lowed for beard and clothing, but in
no case are foster parents selected who
are so poor that the adopted child will
suffer hardship. 1t must be sent to
school regularly until the age of four
teen years, when it is put to work
The local committee watches over each
adopted child and sees that the condi-
'tions are all fulfilled. The earnings OF
4 boy of that class from fourteen to
eighteen are put in the postal savings
bank, and at the latter age he can be-
gin his career with little ready
money. AS result the state has
raised citizen at a cost of seventy
dollars year and saved no end of
outlay for courts, prisons and reforma-
tories.
