A striking novelty, which will
doubtless interests the lady theatre
goers. is n glass dress worn in the
last of BY Wits Outwitted by that
beautiful actress Miss Lottie Wade
1t was especially made for this talen-
ted lady by the Iobbey Glass works
at their worlds fair exhibit. The
gown is a marvel of beauty and
would bear inspection as one of
Worth's celebrated productions.
The pattern is singularly fetching.
while the colors are many but blended
with exquisite taste. In style this
unique dress is an exact duplicate OF
the one presented by this company
20 the Spanish Infanta on her visit
TO Chicago last summer. The cos
tunes which will be worn by the
ladies OF the BY Wits Outwitted next
Tuesday niggt Feb. Goth are said to
he the most superb ever seen in a

How the Copy Came.

Sometimes young woman would enter the shop in the morning, while was busy sweeping or dusting, and throwing down a roll of paper with an exclamation of "Therep' would rush off as as abruptly as she had entered. On examining the roll I would find it addressed in De Quincey's neatest handwriting to William Tait, Esquire" On more than one occasion night policeman arrived early in the after noon with similar packet, for which he demanded and received shilling-a coin destined to be divided into three parts, the packet having passed through as many pairs of hands.
 ''Who gave you this9" once heard Mir, Tait ask. Ut was my neighbor sir, at the North Bridge" And who gave it to him2" "It was his neighbor, sir" 'And where did he get itp" "Oh, he got it from the little man, sir, that makes the fine speeches and lives down yonder, sir," was the reply.-"Some Memories of Books, Authors, Events," J.

When a Penholder Is Wanted.

The postal system of the country, or ganized in 17S9, when the population was about 5000, GOO, is still conducted on the same general principle-that is to say, postmasters at the largest offices are charg- ed with maximum responsibilities and 8 minimum of power, even to the expendi- ture of cents for penholder or a bottle of mucilage, unless by written direction of the department at Washington.
 To illustrate, it is desirable or necessa- " to change or establish a branch station. The postmaster must communicate that fact to the department. The department refers it to postoffice inspector, who in- vestigates without any obligation to con- suit the postmaster; the place is selected on the recommendation of the postoffice inspector, and the postmaster receives word that the postoffice inspector will be sent to see that the station is properly fit- ted up. This postoffice inspector may be one appointed from New Mexico, while the selection of a site and the fitting up of a station in any large city should be based upon intimate knowledge of the postal needs of that city.-Charles w.

The Army of Employees Required to Keep
 Them In Repair.
 Of the many large office buildings in New York some 35 are up to date' in every respect and represent the highest de- yelopment of modern architectural skill, while now towerlike buildings are rearing their heads every month, each surpassing its predecessor in splendor and modern Improvements Comparatively few peo- pie, even among the tenants themselves, have any right senso of the enormous cost and labor devoted to "caretaking" in these structures and supplying the occupants with all the conveniences they enjoy in common.
 The highest of these buildings has 26 floors on 22 stories. It contains enough brick to build 250 ordinary brick houses and sufficient iron to construct 29 miles of railroad. It has more than 40, 900 feet of floor space and 1000, 900 feet of wood- work.
 Another of these buildings, which GOV CTS an area of nearly an acre. contains over 500 rooms and over 1000 windows, for which three miles of sash chain are requir- ed. This is the largest office building in existence.
 The head janitor here has 15 assistants to help him keep the structure in order. This is no small undertaking, for, in ad- dition to the regular routine work, great number of odd jobs requiring attention is sure to crop up every day in the year.
 In addition to these men force of 80 women is required to clean out the offices, sweep the corridors and wash down the stairs daily. They work from 6 until 9 in the morning and after o'clock in the evening. This cleaning, sorubbing and furnishing runs in regularly appointed grooves or it would never be ended.
 Most large office buildings have special corps of plumbers, steam filters, carpen- ters and painters among their employees. In the building of which I am speaking there are no less than 50 men on the staff of the chief engineer. These include as- sistant engineers, electricians, oilers and coal passers.
 Their wages run from $25 a week, the salary of an assistants engineer, to $10 a week. paid to the coal passers. The cleo tricians and oilers receive from $12 to SIS week each. By a new method the ex- haust steam from the engine is used in heating the building. g.-Boston Herald.

Mir. Wilson was born in the north of Scotland in 1858 and was educated at the public schools of Aberdeen and the High school at Edinburg. He passed an exami- nation in the scientific elementary course at South Kensington (London) examina- tions. He served his apprenticeship in a small marine shop in the north and at the completion of his time went to sea as sixth engineer on the Somersetshire from Lon don, Eng, to Sydney, New South Wales. He made seven voyages in her and then went to China in the Tehearn of P. and O. service for eighteen months. He then went down the Red sea carrying pilgrims to Mahop'et's Tomb, or rather, to the nearest point that could be got to it, viz: Djeddah, on the west coast of Arabia, from thence to China once more, then to Rio Ja- neiro, South America, then to Russia and from Russia to the East Indies, Malay Archipelago, and the Straits settlements. He was shipwrecked three times, which compelled him to make three starts in life for himself. MT. Wilson came to America seven years ago and has lived in Birming- ham three or four years.
