Stone, like lumber, requires sea-
soning. Stone is often spoken OF
as the synonym of solidity-"as
solid as q "~-k," we say, but as a
matter of fact, stone is very far
from being solid. A cubic foot OF
the most compact granite, for
instance, weighs about I64 pounds,
while a cubic foot of iron weighs
464 pounds. This plainly shows
that in between the atoms which
compose the mass of the most EN-
during stone there exists much
space for air, moisture, etc. This
seasoning Of stone prior 10 use for
building purposes has been well
understood by the architects Of all
ages, but in the modern rush OF
nineteenth century building too
little attention has been paid to it.
Now it enters into the calculations
Of every good architect.-Scientific

Judge Yost has subjected himself
to SO much unpleasant criticism fcr

to justify his conduct and says:
"In perfect keeping with the high

titled to give his professional services
in any case involving question of
right between one citizen and an
other, which is open to legal solution,
regardless of his clients politics, re-

origin in many instances. The other

bit of silver a corner, became highly
interested in play by one of the
boys to save his fve-spot. He sue
ceeded, and when he did so his part
ner exultantly yelled out: That's
the boy for Nelly"
Little attention was paid to 1t,
for it was a common and old-time
expression. Yet it had its origin
right here in Chicago-in Central
Music hall during the great 14-inch
balk line billiard tournament be-
tween Jake Schaefer, Maurice Vign'

archs OF the gentleman's game.
1t came about on the night when
Schaefer and Slosson were pitted
against each other. Both were
playing strong billiards, and the
spectators were worked up to the
highest pitch as they pulled for
their favorite. Among the ladies
occupying the boxes was Mrs. Slos-
son, a bright, rosy-cheeked little
woman, whose eyes were riveted on
the table watching every play closely.
Schaefer was at the moment manipu
lating the worries. Suddenly be

DupEs or AMERICAN RoovIs,


American sharpers seem to havs
found an especially productive field
in cultivating the speculative In
clinations of young Englishmen dur
ing the last few years. A case has
come to light recently in Kansas
Judge Horton not long ago entered
a decree In favor of young English.
man named Girard J. Riddell against
Francis W. Green, the latter having
induced the former to put up the
money for farming enterprise.
The facts as alleged in the bill filed
in the court are these:
Riddell was the son of an English
COUNTRY gentleman living near
Worksop, England. Green met Rid
dell in England, and, representing
to him and his parents that the farm
ing business was great business
for young Englishmen in this coun-
try, persuaded Riddeil's parents to
elbow him to come to this country
for the purpose OF going into farm
ing. Riddell's parents sent with
him or TO him after he came here in.
all something over $4,000, which
was placed in Green's sole care and
by Green placed in box Of the First
National Safety Deposit company.
Green transacted all Of Riddells
business, among other things buying
for him farm in Will county, which
he paid for out Of Riddells funds,
to Riddeil that the farm
cost $1,000 more than he actually |
paid for it, and appropriating this
81, 1000 to his own use. He after
wards paid back $500 of this. Sep
tember /, 1893, Riddell, being about
20 leave town for o few weeks, Green
,urned over to him in the vaults Of
he First National Deposit company
he balance of the money belonging
o Riddell, amounting TO $6,700.
When Riddell next had occasion to
70 to his box in the vault on his re-
urn to the city, on September %,
1913, he found only 800 there instead
# the Sc, 700 he had left there. The i
anne day that Green had turned
'ver to Riddell this balance in the
deposit vault Green hired in his own
lafne and without Riddell's knowl-
,dge another box in the vaults of
The Home Safety Deposit company.
On October 7, 1894, Attorney Robert
Mather filed for Riddell a bill for an
against Green, alleging
the Misrepresentation of the 81, 900
On the farm deal, and also the Sc, 900
that was missing from the vault box.
Sreen being on the point Of depar-
sure for England, writ was issued
by Judge Tuley, and Green was ar
rested. A day or two thereafter he
was released from arrest and re-
turned to England, promising his
5ondmen to be back here by the lst
Of January following, but he has
never returned to this country.
