A REAL CASTLE IN THE AIR.
One Of the Queer Features of the Paris
Exposition in 1900.

"A castle in the air" is no longer q
mere saying. Ii is an accomplished
fact, or will be within three years.
Paris is preparing to electrify the
world during the Exposition of 1900
with something far more wonderful
han her Eiffel Tower of the past or
Chicago's Ferris wheel of 1898, and
sven more wonderful than the great
sphere, representing the earth, OF
which so much has been written
lately, and which is also to be ex-
nibited in Paris in 1900.
The greatest feature of this grand
Exposition will be this aerial castle,
the first of the kind in the world.
1t has just been designed and the
manufacture of some of the parts OF
this wonderful building has already
been begun. A conception so unique,
and, from an architectural stand
point, so daring, could not have
originated anywhere save in the fer
tile brain of Partisan architect
The architect is NJ. Henri Gaillard
of the Rue de Rivoli, a young fellow
whose daring conception has start
led the older and less original mem
bers of his profession more than
any design which has been attempt
ed in years.
This air castle is new in every
J particular, in material as well al
design. Aluminium. the "younges
metal" as it as been aptly termed
will! be the chief metal used in thu
construction of the castle itself, a.
we'll as in that of the bands holding
the balloon to the earth.
| One of the extraordinary feature
will be the balloon from which th
aluminium castle is to be suspended
1t will be the largest in the world
having a capacity of 100000 gal
Ions. II will be inflated with by
drogen gas, which latter will b
manufactured in a building espt
cially constructed for the purpose
The bottom of the castle will b
$50 feet from the earth, and the to
. of the castle itself, which is to b
Just 80 feet in height, $50 feet fror
the ground.-New York Journal.

BEN R. TowNDRow A FRAUD.
The Manager Of the independence
Mine Arrested While Trying
to Skip the Country.
He Pocketed Nearly Two Thousand
Dollars Due lis Creditors.

Ketchum is all stirred up over
sensational episode that transpired
at HALEY, Thursday, in which Ben
r. Towndrow. manager Of the In
dependence mine, was o conspicu-
Gus figure.
Mr.. Towndrow, IL seems, went
down to Haley Wednesday night,
and parties here whom he was owing
feeling little suspicious Of the
gentleman's movements just on the
eve Of promised payday, followed
Thursday for the purpose Of keep
ing an eye on the willy manager.
About the time the outgoing train
was due, it was discovered that
Towndrow intended boarding the
train to skip the country.
H. C. Lewis, who happened to be
in Haley at the time and being one
of Towndrow's creditors, had him
arrested as he was preparing to
skip.
There has been no payday at the
Independence mine for about three
months, Towndrow putting off his
creditors, both at the mine and 9th
ers, from time to time with the
promise Of speedy settlement.
During the last two weeks he has
resorted to desperate means in ordel
to pacify his anxious creditors. HI
went so far as to exhibit dispatches
which he claimed to have received
from q party who would arrive a
an appointed time with capita
of 5000 to furnish him for thu
purpose of liquidating his debts
It is apparent now that these dis
patches were only delusion and I
snare. and that the party with tn
