NO VAGRANT BEER-BOTTLES.
A Combination of Nine Local Bee


A Combination of Nine Local Beer
Men.
Nine of the large beer-bottling firms of
this city have combined to form corpora
ton for their mutual defense and protec-
ton. The corporation has no capital
stock, and what expenses are incurred will
be borne by the dues of its membership.
For its object the new corporation has
the interchange of all property belonging
to any of its members, such as bottles,
siphons, ETC., the protection of all the
trademarks of its members and their
bottles and whatever else may tend to
throw safeguards around their property
and bring the various firms closer to-
gether and prevent a clash of their interests.
The beer-bottle is a thing easily enptied
and easily filled again; easily broken and
easily lost, and the fact that one firm
alone considers an annual disappearance
of 10000 bottles only an average item,
shows how prone these useful articles are
to go wrong. AT present yagrant beer
bottle is sought out by It's owner only,
but under the rules of the new corporation
every heer-bottle found astray will be at
once taken charge of and sent back to It's
proper owner. Any bottle found filled
with the wrong brand will be promptly
emptied and made to disgorge, and it will
be returned to and kept within the limits
of its own brand of beer.
There are nine directors in the corpora
ton representing firms as follows: A. j.
Lang, the Fredericksburg Company;
George Brown, George Brown & Co.; John
Rapp, Rapp & De Barry; Daniel Tweedie,
Tweedie & Co.. John Fauser, John Fauser
& Co; G. Gelaret, the California Bottling
Company; Max Moeller, the Enterprise
Bottling Company; A. H. Lochbaum, A.
H. Lochbaum Il Co. Other firms having in
terests similar to those of the charter mem
bers will be allowed to Join.

The construction of the new City Hall
dome, yesterday put larger force of men
than has been employed for some time on
the iron and brick work. The heavy rains
have delayed the construction considera-
completed for six months yet. The extern
sion of time granted to the contractors will
expire on February 10, OF course they will
have to ask for another extension, or they
would soon cease to have any profits in
sight, as the penalty for default is $3.50
a day.

A MTsER's HOARD.
William Larkin's Estate Not So Large
As EXnacted.

The estate of William Larkin, the miser,
who died some time ago in squalid little
room scarcely big enough to hold himself
and bed, has been appraised at value of
$71,743 60. 1t consisted of stocks, bonds,
real estate in city and country, mortgages
and nearly $4,000 in bank. Larkin was
known to be rich man when he died, in
spite of his apparent poverty, but popular
opinion placed its estimate OF his wealth
higher than the actual figures. Mrs Eliza
beth Kavanaugh was made his sole legatee,
but distant relatives in various parts of the
world are contesting the will.

No special reason could be assigned for
this evidence of returning prosperity
other than that the demand for suitable

Concerning Giants.

There are hardly any truthful recnrda
Of the giants Of tho past, thoagh liteEa-
tura Is full Of wendrous tales about them.
A French academlcian, n. Henriop, oncs
estimated the height Of Adam to b 12s
fest and that Of Eve lie, proportions that
must have appeared most formidable t.
the serpent, and made tho proposition for
apples seem somewhat trivial thing.
The Same authority brings Abraham
down 70 - fest, and makes Moses only
-. Goliaths recorded height il, how.
ever, only . feet . inches. wsich i within
the bounds Of possibility.
Pliny speaks Of seeing giantess 10
feet inches in height, and skeleton
70 feet long. There are weird stories Of
the Emperor Macmillan, Who VA reputed
to DO feet high, and to have eaten forty
pounds Of meat day.
Nearly every race has contributed to
giantism, but the English has furnished
far the larger proportion, partly, perhaps
because the English have always been
fond Of seeing giants and paying for the
privilege, thereby drawing the merit Of
PHYSICAL bignesa, which has always been
modest, out of ito undeserved obscurity.
Next to the English, the Irish have sup
piled the largest number, but the Irisl,
giant il rarely grown nowadays, since
that stock has been drawn upon 20 beav.
lily BY America. Germany and the United
States have supplied, each eight or nine
men who have won publicity and fame,
by their exuberant physique. It seems
to 10 the Central and Western States that
supply the American giants, and our VA
records show that in these regions, to-
gether with Maine and Vermont, the Az
srage stature is the highest There have
been French and Italian. negro and Arab
giants. but the number 10 few, and it is
evident that the temperate zones and the
large races supply the mcst cases Of giant
ism. It 10 curious fact that since Bibli
cal days there have been no giants among

Of these ofEenses, the convictions OBJ

these cases tho criminals found no
property which they thought worth

at less than 81, and IN II cases only did

were obtained in 100 cases, but in 81
