ToBoGGANED DOWN A MOUNTAIN.
The Daring Slide on Historic lookout
Taken by an Unknown Coaster.

A short. compactly built man with q
heavy blonde mustache took a tohoSgan
slide down Lookout mountain the other
afternoon. He went via The iacline and
made the trip from the Point Hotel TO The
engine house, a distance OF 1870 feet, in
three and one-half minutes. which is just
one-third the time that Il takes a car 20

Fully 100 people saw him make the light
ning-like descent, and all were greatly ex-
cited. The nervy coaster. however. WAS as
cool as the proverbial cucumber. and upon
reaching the foot Of the mountain. walked
away as coolly as though 4 had taken
him an hour TO descend. About O'Clock
the coaster appeared at the Point Hotel
with what appeared to be a block Cf wood
ABOUT eight inches square under his arm.
On one Side OF the block was a steel horse
shoe. In the curve Of which was a small
hanged wheel. The other side OF the block
was slightly concave. The block WIS nut

next and are preserved in the innaria /

princes, valued at four or five million
marks. The collection was catalogued and
Value estimated twenty-six years ago. an
operation which took six days to accom-

Is necklace of three rows of pearls which
the empress received from the emperor
after the birth of the Crown Prince Rudolf
These were at that time estimated at
seNenty-hve thousand Sulden Now they
are worth three hundred thousand sulden,
as the pearl fisheries in Ceylon and Nala-

Elizabeth no longer possesses all the Jew
els she had in 1866. Many of them have
been presented to her daughters and

books labeled Speeches in Congress-"
There are a score and more of these and
each of the books is as large as family
Bible, or the largest ledger you have ever
seen. These are scrap books in which are
pasted the speeches and addresses which
Senator Sherman has delivered during the
last thfrty-eight years. They are bound IN
green leather, and are made Of heavy ma
nilla paper. The speeches are pasted only on
one side Of the page, and they include, in

newspaper comments, stories and inter-

them you find hundreds Of editorials. some

three columns on every page, and the Lagos

these newspaper clippings have been illus

John Sherman's Duels.
In one volume find number of ci.rri1gs
about Sherman and the bloody shirt. and, in
1850, there was great talk of a duel be-
tween Sherman and Wade Hampton. Sher-
man had charged Hampton with being con-
nected with the ku klux and had given evil
dence to show that he was correct. Wade
HAMPTON did not try to controvert the evil
dencs. but he satisfied himself by sending
the following letter which he thought would
bring Sherman to a duel:

In reply to this Sherman reiterated his
statements and published Hampton's let

laughed at all over the country.

IN and out, affecting the leading events of
our history from that time to this. They

Senator Sherman's New House.
II is interesting to study the intellectual
Bfe of public man. 1t is more interest
ing when the man has for thirty-eight
years been at the head of affairs Of great
nation. and it is most interesting when the
man has so decided mental individuality
as John Sherman of Ohio. You can get
some idea of him by a peep into his
workshop. He lives, you know, in his new,
white stone mansion facing Franklin
Square. His house stands on the site of
the old, brick which he built when this
famous park was little more than a cow
pasture. and when he was still poor mem
Der of Congress. His present house is
about fifty feet front, and IL is massive and
beautiful. Its walls thick enough to
outlast the ages GU could drive wagon
lead of hay up the wide stone steps which
lead to it's front door without brushing the
ratings at the sides. and the hall in which
you enter is so wide that the wagon could
almost turn around in IL. The vestibule
with it's tiled floor, is seen through long
doors of thick plate glass, the solid panes
of which reach. with only a narrow bind
ing Of wood, from floor to ceiling, and by
pressing an. electric button the inner doors
open and you find yourself in one of the
most handsome and most characteristic of
the new houses of Washington. You are
struck with the genuinness of everything.
All about you is solid, massive, beautiful
and real There is no varnish or veneertnS.
The wood work. selected from the finest of
Ohio trees, is beautifully carved, and it
has the polish OF a piano. The brass fix
lures which furnish the light are strong
end firm, and great globes Of opalescent
glass the size of a wash basin filter the
electric rays, so that they meet your eyes
with soft mellow light. At the right OF
you is the Senator's library. At the left
is a great parIOr. and back Of these is one
OF the finest dining rooms in Washington.

buy books when he was boy Of fourteen,

ing. ard his books embrace nearly every
branch of literature. All OF the famous
novelisCs have places on his shelves, and he
finds a part Of his intellectual rest in novel
reading. He is fond Of Dickens and
Scott, and ne keeps himself thoroughly
versed in the magazine literature of the
day. He is a scientific student as well.
and a large part of his cases are filed with
scientific works. He is up in biology and
astronomy. and one Of the last books he
has read IS the New Astronomy" by
Prof. Langley. the head Of the Smithsonian
Institution. He is reader of French and
German as we'll as English, and among his
volumes / noted the Had and many of the
classics. His library of financial authori-
tfes is large. ana he has everything worth
owning which relates 10 the history Of
this country In the back Of the library
there is great vault. where his private
papers are Kept. and here IS now packed
away the correspondence of his lifetime
He has been keeping his letters since he
was fifteen. and everything of value has
been saved This vault is packed full of
unwritten history, and there is scarcely
prominent man in the world today who
has not written something that is
treasured In its collection. Among others
there are about a score of volumes Of
autographs. each rs big as a dictionary
and these contain personal letters from ell
sorts Of distinguished people. The Senator's
acquaintance has been very wide. and his
friendships embrace the prominent men of
nearly every country. and they have ex-
tended over more than a generation. The
most OF these letters will never be pub
lished. A number Of them are personal
and private, and some Of the most interest
ing relate to the Senator and his family
Those between him and his brother have
been partially published. They covered
you know. the time from Gen. Sherman's
entrance TO West Point to that Of his death
and they were given by the Senator to the
generals family shortly after that They
tor1n a most valuable addition to the his
tory OF this country. and have added to the
reputation Of Sherman the statesman as
we'll as sherman the general
