PARIsExPosITIoN THE GREAT TELESCOPE

the descent will become more gradual,
for a plunge beneath the seas is con
templated. An arrangement of aquari-
ums which will fill up nearly the whole
space not needed for the passage of the
balloon will give the travellers the i'm
preston that their dive is a real one.
Live fishes from the sea will be in these
aquariums, and it Is also designed to
have marine fora Of every obtainable
kind growing in them. The wreck of a
ship covered with weeds will be one Of
the curiosities at the bottom of this
mimic ocean. Down into the sea will 20
the balloon. 1t will not stop when the
bottom is reached, but will continue on
through Veritable hole in the ground
This portion of the tube will be SO
arranged as to Illustrate the varied
strata Of the earth under Paris. Mines
Will also be shown, the balloon passing
galleries of coal mines, apparently in
full operation.
When the balloon reaches the sea
level, the moonlight effect will be dis
continued and an artificial sun turned
on. This light will be made to fail
gradually as the lower depths of the
sea Will be reached. The journey to the
center Of the earth will be made bright
by means of bunch of electric in
candescent lights made fast to the car
Oh the balloon. The air in this sub
terranean journey will be made to feel
as heavy and oppressive as It is to be
found in excavations of the genuine
kind. AS the car will reach the bot
tom OF the shaft, it's occupants will
become conscious Of great heat. This

And here is an equally surprising en-
terprlse, which the inventors have
called The Telescope"
This telescope" idea is the invention
of two French architects, Arthur Feron
and NJ. Megs, Of No. 40 West Twenty
fourth street, this city, says a World
writer. They have sent paintings,
plans and other data to the exposition
commission and expect to hear Of def
mite action any day. A company with
sufficient capital to build the ''tele-
scope" has already been formed, and
as soon as practicable work will be
begun to make the scheme a reality.
The building proper will be about
eight stories high, built of marble, with
facings Of stone not yet selected. There
will be one entrance on each of the
four sides, under immense archways.
In each of the four corners, on the first
and second floors, or landings, will be
restaurants. Offices for the use Of the
men and women required to keep the
place in order, reception rooms and
toilet rooms will take up the remainder
Of the available space. The building
will cover 400 square feet of ground.
From the ground to the foot of the
central column, it will measure 1876
feet. Rising from the roof will be a
column of tube sos feet high, or 700
from the ground. This is the telescope
proper. 1t will measure los feet in
diamafar Wisitorc will he carriad 70
the roof in an elevator made in the
shape of balloon, and as it will not
be guided by the iron Orders common
in elevators, the basket will of neces-
sity swing little, thus making the
ascension more realistic. This balloon
earth, water and air. Those who wish
to make the trip will enter the basket
at the level of the sea. Daylight will
fade, electric lights being so arranged
that upon the shutting off of the natur-
al light the interior of the tube will
appear to be flooded by moonlight.
Slowly the balloon will arise and pass
through the clouds. Above these the
aeronauts will pass the planets Mars,
Jupiter and Saturn. At the top of the
column the air, mechanically exhaust
ed, will give those in the balloon some
idea Of what genuine aeronauts suffer
when they rise in high attitudes, owing
to the absence of a breathable atmos-
phere. Cold will also be felt. A stop
of few seconds will be made at the
top Of the tube, and then the car will
drop to the surface of the sea little
quicker than it went up. At this point

MONEY IN THE BANKS.

Cities OF the Unlted states.

what the Deposits Are in the Leading
Cities OF the United States.
Inasmuch as Washington Is not gem
orally regarded as a city OF great BUSH
ness activities, and as there are not
many citizens OF great wealth, II will
probably surprise most readers TO learn
that the individual deposits in our ma
tional banks are exceeded by those Of
only twelve other cities in the union
OF course, New York stands first In the
list. with 1902 900 900 on deposit; Bos-
ton comes next with Sl0l 900, 900; Phila-
delphia ranks third. with sS9,0O0OOO,
while Chicago has s66 900, 600. Curious
ly enough. Pittsburg, with considerable
less population, outranks Baltimore by
$1,000 900, the former city having $751;
100000, while the latter has only s24.-
100000. Cincinnati and Cleveland, the
two leading Ohio cities, tie each other,
with Sl9 100000 apiece. ST. Louis. that
used to fondly talk of herself as the
rival OF Chicago. falls below both the
Ohio cities. having only $4,000. 900.
Milwaukee and New Orleans have Sl7.-
100000 and $4,000. 900 respectively.
Brooklyn comes next with Sl4. OOO, 900.
Washington shows a deposit OF $40
100000, which is equaled by that OF
Detroit and Kansas City. Omaha and
st. Paul are a tie at S. 900 900. while
Minneapolis, which claims TO be much
more enterprislng and prosperous than
her next door neighbor, has but $1,000
600. But, even more surprising than
the credible showing OF Washington.
is the poor exhibit made by San Fran
cisco. the commercial and manufac-
turing emporium OF the Pacific coast,
whose national banks are credited with
only $4,000. 600. None OF the other cities
on the Pacific coast Is reported as hay-
ing so much as 81. 900 600. which leads
TO the Inference that they play a pretty
strong blum financial game out in those
regions.

A Brooklyn man who was Convicted
OF burglary he did not commit. and
"pardoned" after he had served nearly
two years in Sing Sing, has sued the
state of New York for $1O1 1886. 2S dam
ages. OF this amount 5000 is claimed
for injury to reputation and mental
and physical suffering while in prison;
the rest is his computation of the
amount he lost in business by this false
Imprisonment, with his attorneys fees
added. Since the state authorities adj
NIT that he was innocent of the crime
for which he was convicted, and his
pardon" was granted because of his
innocence, they have very interesting
case on their hands to defend. They
may set up the claim that he is the
victim of misfortune rather than
wrong, but the state is responsible for
its part in the denial of liberty that
caused his suffering and loss.

George NJ. Pullman has confided to
an interested public his slowly formed
conviction that he was much happier
when he was a poor boy earning his
living by his daily labor than now when
ne is worried with his millions and
burdened with the weight of vast in
terests and business cares. Wealth, he
says, does not bring happiness. Mr..
Pullman is evidently getting ready to
buy happiness for the rest Of his days
by unloading his surplus and with
drawing from the Millionaire club.

The old foolishness that women Of
learning, or eloquence, or brain, are
never pretty, or even good looking, is
extinct, and has been put on the upper
shelf among the dead scarabs of old
Egypt. In this generation we have
women professors, lecturers, scholars,
authors, politicians, and philosophers,
who are beautiful indeed-far more
beautiful than those brainless women
OF old who left nothing better than their
pictures for our instruction.

The instruction in the republic of
Colombia has ended less pleasantly
than that in the republic of Ecuador.
There was good deal of bloodshed in
the one, but little if any in the other.
The Colombian rebels are tired of trea-
son, the Ecquadorian rebels are amnes-
tied; Colombia was disturbed for
months, Ecuador for only a few days.
President Caro- is a reyengeful man:
President Cordero is the most forgiving
OF rulers. For the fun of the thing,
the warlike ways of Ecuador are much
preferable to those of Colombia.

There is nothing in the cruelty of a
man-governed world more cruel than
the deception complained of by Miss
Willard and Mrs. Somerset in securing
their signatures as members Of the com
mittee on the new woman's Bible. They
signed without knowing just what they
were subscribing to, and in that they
were just like the man who signed the
petition to have himself hanged. The
new woman movement ought to be
more careful about making such old
masculine mistakes in getting out
a woman's Bible.

THE GIRL AT CHURCH,
Some of Her Shortcomings Mirrored by
Ruth Ashmore.

You pride yourself a Well-mannered
girl and would be very indignant if you
were told you we're lacking in ordi-
nary politeness. When you are invited
out you are careful not only to be
prompt, but to be cOnsiderate Of your
hostess. What consideration do you
show God when you go into His house?
Too often you come in late, seat yourself
with a little noise and do not hesitate to
turn and twist until you feel that your
skirt is arranged exactly right and you
are quite comfortable. Then you give a
sigh as you look at the preacher. He is
one whose sermons you do not admire,
so while is trying to do his duty you
coolly read your prayer book or hymnal
or look around the congregation, and
catching the eye of friend, give a
shrug of disgust. When the sermon is
over you give vent to sigh of thank
fullness and you never seem to realize
that this bad behavior on your part is
bad behavior not only to the clergy
man, but to that God whose representa-
tive he is.
When the collection is taken up you
look here and there and everywhere to
see who is depositing bank note. Be-
fore the benediction is said you crane
yourself like bird with its plumage SO
/ that you will be ready to start out the
very minute it is ended. do not sup
pose you realize for a moment how
dreadful this is. How it is giving an
opportunity to an unbliever to say,
What can these christians think of
their God when they are SO impolite to
Him." Then you do something else.
In your church the pews are rented.
When you enteryou close the door and
give no poor sinner an opportunity to
side beside you, and yet, in the sight of
God Won are all alike, aud before Him
the rich and peor stlnG ogether to be
! Judged.
