full grown in an hour; it is also like
that keen-eyed, shrewd, business giant,
Victor F. Lawson.
Mr.. Lawson believes in newspapers
and he believes in Chicago. 81 used to
have other interests" he said. 81 was
devoted to music, but the Record and
the News have absorbed me. AS to the
city. if | live out my days shall see it
the grandest on the continent. Of
course, we have outgrown our jackets
and breeches now. We have built miles
upon miles of streets. too fast to keep
them cleaned and paved But that is in
cidental to our unprecedented growth.
Everything is coming our way.
Has Chicago gotten over the fair?"
There never was anything to get
over. A good many lines of business
were better the year before the fair
than while it was in operation. The
only drop since the exposition not di-
rectly attributable to hard times has
been in the rents of medium-priced
groundsthe enormous number of board
ing houses that were run up have been
turned into apartment houses, and they
have brought down rents for houses of
the same grade all over the city. But
that is not ap unmiXed evil, except to
landlords. No, the east is mistaken
when it thinks we have had gap to
bridge"
Mr.. Lawson has no children and part
ly perhaps because of that, Mrs. Lawson
is almost as much devoted to the News
as is her husband. There are casts
from Greek shields, busts and bits Of
statuary-her gifts-that make the art
room of the establishment very different
from what the art room of newspaper
office is apt to be. When good cut APP
pears in the paper Mrs. Lawson sends
in a request for the pen and ink draw
ing and she has unique portfolio col
lections Of these sketches of everyday
happenings. ELIZA PUTNAM HEAToN.
The Fence Problem Again.
Farm fences, aside from turning
stock, are an evil, as they harbor all
manner of vermin which spread on all
sides. The fence occupies valuable
land and prevents close blowing to the
edge of the field. Remove what fences
are not necessary. Set 6 by 6 by 30
inch stone at each corner boundary of
the farm. Then cultivate the field
often and drive all vegetable and ami.
mai vermin from the farm. If fencing
is necessary, none will surDass the
modevn strand wire fence. FOR cat
tie, use barbed wire; for horses, twist
ed; for poultry, netting. Netting is
made of nearly all widths aud for all
purposes. \ maVunc is now on the
market which woU,es wires of to ~
strands, and crosses wires To add

Men who can plan, men who have
the nerves of steel to carry TO success
great newspaper enterprises are as
one in millions; and when they arise
the fruit of their genius is too
often turned to ashes by the refusal
of the body to carry the strain; by
physical collapse, breakdown. 1t takes
81 sane man and strong, wholesome
man to endure the tension of the most
eXacting of professions, a profession
which makes men old, while they love
it, and brings the line of care while
they cannot escape the fascination of
the rattle of its machinery. But MIR.
Lawson is as vigorous, as even of tenn
per- as steady of hand as if he were not
one of the great generals of newspaper
dom, going into tight twice every day.
He has seen long sieges and hard bat
ties, but you would never guess it from
| that smooth forehead and those smil-
ing blue gray eyes.
Mr.. Lawson was born in Chicago
IL years ago. He was educated at Har-
, ward. but did not finish his course; his
health would not allow graduation. 1t
was just before the fire that he returned
20 Chicago and began work as clerk in
he post office. In no long time his
ather died and left as part of his es-
, tie a silent interest in small Scandi-

To see what could be saved of the

Office of the Scandinavian paper The
plant did general printing business,
and at the end of December, 1875 there
came to him young Englishman who
had little money-Percy Il. Meggy-
and two men who had newspaper ex-
Ierience, Melville L. Stone and William
L. Dougherty. These three wanted Of
fee room and printing facilities; they
started the Daily News.
Everybody who has tried it knows
that next to the fastest way yet devised
to get rid of money is to buy a steam
yacht, and the fastest way is to found

The recommendation of the counci' F,

the communication of City Clerk Lucken-

Police Commissioner Pirtle move uneasily
in his seat and as quickly as it could br

the. new committee of inquiry consist OF
two members of the police comm ission
and the matron. Pirtle wanted to know
rather sarcastically whether Mrs. Gray

Commissioner Webber seconded the
Pirtle amendment, and the Field motion
having no support besides that of its au.
thor, il was allowed to strangle itself to
death of its own heavy weight. The
Pirtle motion was then unanimously
adopted.
Commissioner Field s opinion was that
the proposed new quarters for the tempo
rary female jail would entail an expense
upon the city besides which their keep
lag at the Hollenbeck hotel would be Il
very inexpensive matter indeed. In holy
horror Mr.. Field spoke of the cost OF two
extra men to guard the women in the
new prison so as to prevent their escape
while in custody. ''uniess,' remarked
the soldier member OF the commi ssion,
I'VE put the women in the chain gang.
The best solution OF this matter would
be the escape Of all the female prisoners,
was the comment of the mayor.
Chief of Police Glass thought thai in
short time there would be no women in
the city Jail. and then the puzzle of the
present black hole scandal would be
solved until such time as the proposed
new central station has been built.
