Must Go West or Starye.

Francis W. Breed, of Lynn, Mass,
one Of the largest shoe manufacturers
IN the country, having factories in
Lynn, Athol, Rochester, \. NJ, and
other places, takes an unfavorable view
Of the future Of the shoe industry in the
east, holding out that such cities as
Lynn, HaveThill, BTOcktOn, and other
famous. Centers, cannot much longer
hold their own against the competition
Of the west. He said: The west has
captured the shoe business formerly
held in New England, and that isn't
the worst Of il; it is going TO hold it..
Why? Because the western manufac-
turer can get labor SO much cheaper
than We can. have seen labor that in
this section would command 81 q day
work for $6 week in many western
factory. The manufacturer Of cheap
shoes in New England win have to move
west if he wants to continue in the busi-
ness"

HOME OF THE COLD WAVE.

said TO BE Its Starting Place.
It is frequently asked: Where do
cold waves originate? The coldest
! rtion of the North American conti-
nent, says the Washington Post. is, in
all probability, in the Saskatchewan
Valley, east of Mount Hooker and
Mount Hood, both Of which are stu
ated in the Rocky Mountain range that
divides British Columbia from the val
ley and the Alberta country. The
height Of this mountain range prevents
the eastern trend or flow of vapor from
the Pacific Ocean from crossing over
into the valley, as 1t would were II not
for the presence Of this high range Of
mountains. Yet it must not be sup
posed that extreme cold always pre-
walls here, because at certain intervals
Ae vapOr from the Pacific flows east
by way Of the Alaska peninsula
through the upper valley Of the Atha-
basca River into Alberta and the val
lev Of the Saskatchewan, and there
meeting with a more southern and
eastern flow of vapOr that flows
through the gap in the mountain range,
made by the Bay Of San Juan, it warns
and expands the atmosphere, crosses
the path of the cold wave, and a
warmth OF from ~ To 4U degrees Is the
result, as we often see graphically
marked on the weather map by red
dots here and there on its surface But
this does not satisfactorily answer why
1t is that the cold wave leaves its home
in the above mentioned valley to go
junkcting on a southern tour. To find
the cause of those successive cold waves
which we experienced from time to
time last winter We will have to look
in quite another direction, down to the
northern tropical latitude, where the
great evaporation OF those warm cur
rents and ocean surfaces is carried
westward from the Atlantic Ocean by
the trade winds, and is massed together
between the winds Of the eastern off
shore winds, blowing sometimes from
Florida, and at other times from Texas,
but in either case promoting Cyclonic
action, which has the effect of enlarg-
Ing the area Of the storm, and the i'm
mediate result is an enormous expan-
sion of atmosphere usually denominated
low AS this low moves across the
surface Of the middle or eastern states
1t peurs down large quantities of water
in the shape of rain, and IS constantly
receiving acCessions Of cloud matter to
replenish its energies; and thus in this
manner it creates more or less Of a
vacuum into wtich the air from the
northwest is drawn with more or less

Irpsi. lent lincoln.

The courtroom in which were tried
In May, 1855, the eight conspirators ar
raigned for being concerned in the plot
against the lives Of the heads Of the
government was q place of fascinating
and perhaps morbid interest. The trial
was arranged ~ be secret, but it was
finally opened te those who could pro-
cure passes from the president of the
court The room In which the trial was
held "a a part Of the great United States
arsenal establishment attached to

cOnspiratOrs We're confined It is on
the banks of the Potomac, in the sub
urbs of the city. Entering an old
fashioned brick building, one was
shown into a large, bare room on the
ground floor. where sat a couple Of
staff officers receiving the credentials
of those who applied for admission;
they Sent those up to the court, where
an officer inspected them, and re-
turned them, If satisfactory, with the
desired card of admission. The part
of the room which was not occupied by
the court was rallied off, and was taken
UP with few seats of reporters and
spectators generally, who were crowded
confusedly about, and rested as best
they could against the bare, white
washed walls of the room At the
farther end of the apartment was
wooden railing, behind which, on the
narrow, raised platform, sat the ac-
cused men, all in a solemn row, with
an armed soldier sitting between every
two persons. At the left-hand corner
behind them was a heavy iron door
opening into the corridor along which
We're the cells of the prisoners. Each
ore Of the accused was manacled hand
and foot, and sat gTimly against the
wall, facing the court and the wit
nesses, the witness stand being
raised box in tie center of the room.
The appearance and demeanor of the
court. it must be admitted, was neither
solemn nor impressive. The members
Of the commission sat about in various
negligent attitudes, and a general ap-
pe&runcc Of disorder was evident. Many
ladies We're present, and their IRE.
presSibie whispering was a continued

John Jacob and the shsnley Brothers
to Open a cafe on Upper Broadway.
John Jacob Astor restaurateur. It's
fact and the big block Of land at
Forty-yecond street ana Broadway is
soon to he the site Of a restaurant
which may vie with the best in this
country or Europe, says the New York
Sun.
For years Acker, Merrali & Condit
have occupied the corner. It is now in
that part Of the city which embraces
half dozen theaters and lots of hotels.
Some weeks ago Thomas ]. Stanley and
his two brothers who conduct chop
house opposite Days theater, got an
option on the property and then ap-
preached the owner John Jacob Astor.
They asked Mr.. Astor 10 build an up
to-date restaurant on the property.
where now stands ramshackIe two
story building. Thomas J. Shanley said
last night:
I'VE expect in a short irne to build
q restaurant that viii astonish tie
world. Before l went into this busi-
ness ! was buyer for q large dry goods
house. l went three times year TO Lon
don, Paris. Berlin, Vienna and lots of
other continental cities. l saw what we
needed in the restaurant line. Accord
ing to our plans. which Mr.. Astcr is to
follow, we Will have a building at least
three stories high. On the roof is to
be an open-air restaurant. Below We
are to have one room for men and
women where smoking is not allowed;
another for both sexes where smoking
Is permitted. There is also Ia be a cafe
FOR men and banquet hail for meetings
and big dinners. The roof restaurant
will, l think. appeal to those who like
to dine comfortably. and you know
what heat is to the average New Yorker
"One unique feature will be an Orches-
ira SO situated in a cOprt that the man
who chcose to spend seven-y-fiye cents
or whatever he cares to. will hear as
much as those who are in the other gal
leries. l have always considered what
people want, and when I say that our
business IN this small place amounts
to over a quarter Of a million Of dollars
year you can see what a larger place
in a better location. perhaps will
amount to. Mr.. Astor said that his
new hotel would take SO much money
It is to adjoin the Waldorf. you know
that he hadn't as much to spend on our
new place as ordinarily he would have
However, 5000 900, we understand IS the
amount to be used.
The place will be equipped with the
newest and best culinary arrangements
and I shall leave for Europe shortly
to get the best chef l can engage The
walters viii be English-speaking ones
I don't fancy foTeigners-and if there
is anything to eat to be had anywhere
we viii have It, and ii viii be properly
cooked, too. 1t will be a new departure
in a way, but We hope to make it a
success"
