cinnati-A Unique
Feature.

IBERTYlBell is at last to have
r a rival. Not, indeed, in fame,
nor in the hearts Of the peo-
pie. In those respects IL
will ever stand unrivalled. But, in
size, at least, rival is now being
made ready for q massive belfry in the
suburbs Of Cincinnati, where IL is
soon to ring out the loudest peal that
has ever vibrated upon the free air of
America. The new bell is to weigh
nearly fifteen tons, aud the great bell
in the cathedral at Montreal, hitherto
the largest on the American continent,
weighs less than thirteen tons. The
largest in England, the Westminster
bell, weighs about the same, while one
in Vienna, the largest in actual use in
Europe, weighs about twenty ;tons.
The monster Of Moscow, which lies
broken and PROSTATE, weighed more
than 200 tons, but it was simply
a huge mistake, which having failed
as bell is now used as chapel. Ii
is stated, too, that there is a mon
stronsity somewhere in China that
weighs about sixty tons.
The great Chinese cat call is said to
be about fourteen feet in height and
shaped like o barrel The Cincinnati
bell, which is modelled after a bell in
Erfurt, Prussia, is accounted the
sweetest in the world, is seven feet
in height and nine in diameter at the
base. The clapper will weigh GAO
poudds. 1t is stipulated that the bell
shall be SO poised that one man can
ring it.

A Western Young Woman Whose Attire
Shocked Staid Old Chicago.

Here Is q lesson for the advanced woman
who has a soft spot for waistcoats, shirt
bosoms four-in-hand ties and such things.
| Miss Nettie Parker, q handsome Mime
apolis young person, Is in cell at the
| Harrison Street Police station in Chicago
because she chose to go about looking like
a boy. Miss Parker is decided brunette
and has strikingly handsome face. She
Is slender and below the medium height.
She wears her hair cut like mans and
the other day had on a sailor hat, a negli-
gee waist and q sort Of cutaway coat OF
blue The only thing about her that looked
like woman was her skirt and her feet
Even the latter were incased In square toed
shoes.
She arrived in Chicago on the 9:30
O'Clock train over the Wisconsin Central,
and she had not been off the train more
than five minutes before she was placed
under arrest by Officer Coleman, who Is
on duty at the Grand Central depot. The
officer saw her alight and Immediately sus-
pected that she was q boy In female attire.
He sought out the conductor of the train
and questioned him about his queer look
ing passenger.
why, she's q boy, for sure" said the
conductor "I've watched her all the way
from Minneapolis, and III stake a months
salary on It,"
"sis conductor having thus confirmed
the officers suspicious, he decided to have
the curious individual investigated and
placed her under arrest. Miss Parker re-
monstrated with the bluecoat, but he toted
her of to the armory, gripsack and all,
and turned her over to Captain Koch.
Captain Koch In turn handed the young
woman over to the matron, who took her
into the annex. There she was searched,
and a large revolver was found In her pos
session. Af.or plying the woman with
questions they extracted the following In
.ormation:
That the prisoner was Miss Nettie Par
ker and lived on Jackson street, north
east Minneapolis; that she was travelling
for washing machine firm, and that her
employer had advised her to carry Q re-
volver; that she had come to Chicago to
visit friends on Blue Island avenue and
that she dressed as she pleased.
For time the police were In q aquandary
what to do with her, but as she failed to
give the number at which her friends lived
on Blue Island avenue it was decided to
have matron accompany her and learn
whether or not che told the truth about
her friends. Chicago Mail.

Negotiations have been completed and
papers all executed in the largest dredging
contract ever let to one firm. The Bowers
Dredging company has been awarded a
contract which covers the dredging and

earth, by which three mile canal will be
constructed between Puget sound at Seat
tie and Lake Washington. The cost Of this
dredging viii be In the neighborhood OF
$6, 600, 900.
Two mammoth dredges will be en-
ployed In the work for the next five years.
The earth and other material taken from
the cut will be used in filling up the tide
lands OF Seattle, comprising some 3, 600
acres which will practically be reclaimed

done, there will be an area Of 1900 OF
more acres perfectly level, Offering the best
opportunity for the extension of the city.

this hill, and the material which comes
out Of the cut will be deposited hydraulic.

Experiments are in progress looking to

this popularity has made a market for

In one Of the new forms it is an i'm

proves to be the success it promises.
it is superior in quality to the ordinary
