Architect George H. Miller Of WASHINGTON
Is Dead.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-The builder
Of the capitol dome is dead. He has
left behind one of the most conspicuous
monuments Of this continent and an
example of architectural skill famous
the world vel.
This man, Notwithstanding his
achievement, vas little known. His
name was George H., Miller. He
entered the Office Of the archi.
tect Of the capitol in 1859 and
continued there until his death. Sew.
eral other architectural feats are to be
credited to him, notably the construc.
ton Of the beautiful marble terrace on
the north, west and south fronts of the
Capitol, an undertaking which practi.
cally reversed the frontage of the great
building and d%ovetailed it into practical
connection with the City of Washing.

rather than the east Of the building, as
its original designer expected would be
the case.

The Track at Louisville Expected
to Show Some Great
Spurts.
Not Surprising If Several New

LOUISVILLE, Aug. 13.-The weather
is all that the visiting wheelmen could
desire and they are enjoying them
selves to the full extent. A heavy
thunder storm during the night caused
the thermometer to take a tumble and
all day a good breeze has been blowing
which has had the effect of cooling off
the atmosphere to such an extent as to
make a ride on the wheel thoroughly
enjoyable. All the preparations for the
races have been completed and every.
thing is in fine shape, the track being
lightning fast. Some good sport is
anticipated and it will not be surprising
if old records are lowered and new
ones hung up.
Greatest Bicycle Races.
In this connection Mr.. w. G. Pelot Of
Chicago says:
There will be the greatest races in
the history of the bicycle. They will
be the greatest for the reason hat the
fastest men in this country and more
Of them will take part in the contests
than ever before gathered at a track.

cellent condition and eager for the lau.

these splendid contests. If these condi.
tions no not insure great races, l don't
know what would"
The grand parade started at 3 80 p.
M, and after going over the principal
streets of the city, wound up at Jacobs
park, where a watermelon feast was
held.
In the evening from = to ~ O'Clock a
reception was given the visitors at the

southern parkway, half way between
Jacobs park and the city.

ELECTRIC SHOCK VICTIMS.
A French Authority Proscribes = Form.

A French Authority Proscribes = Form
ula Of Treatment.
One Of the contingencies of modern
civilization which is almost new and is
wholly dependent upon the develop
ment of modern industry is the treat
ment of accidents from electric shocks,
says the Medical Record. The matter
has been discussed quite thoroughly by
physicians in this country, but it has
been worked out, perhaps, more sys-
tematically by DR.. D'Arsonval of Paris,
who has recently made a report to the
Academic de Medicine of Paris upon
the method Of treating persons injured
by electric shocks. D'Arsonval states
that electricity causes death sometimes
directly by the descriptive and electro
lyt1c effects of the charge on the It's
sues. This death is final. 1t sometimes,
however, causes death indirectly by ar
rest of respiration and syncope, caused
by stimulation Of the nerve centers.
Under these circumstances a person
may be revived If proper measures are
applied. The formula for reviving the
victim of electric shock is this: The
person SO disabled should be treated
like one drowned; in other words, he
should be laid upon the back and arti-
fetal respiration performed in the way
that is ordinarily prescribed. Some
further practical advice, however, is
given to those who are called at once
to the scene Of accident and at the time
when the person is perhaps still in con
tact with the wires. OF course the first
thing to be done is to stop the current
or break the contact. In doing the
latter one should not touch the victim
on the face or hands Or any naked part
OF the body. 1t is better to lift him by
the coat-tails or to throw a blanket owe
him and pull him by this. Nothing
that is wet should be thrown upon him,
n if his clothes are wet the hands
should not be put in contact with them.
A piece of dry wood can be placed IN
der the body and he can then be lifted.
The further treatment of the case is the
familiar one applied in attempting to
restore the drowned. The arms are
worked and the tongue is kept drawn
out; the body may sometimes be rubbed
thoroughly with a cloth or brush in
order to increase the circulation of the
blood. Oxygen and perhaps a slim
ulant may be employed.

A Cautious Financier.

During a winter visit to Florida An
drew Carnegie attended service in a lit
tie negro church. When the contribu-
ton plate came around Mr.. Carnegie
dropped a S. bill upon it. After the
contents of the plate had been counted
the clergyman arose and announced:
Bretheren and sisteren, the collection
this evening seems to figure up $6.44
and if the S. bill contributed by the
gentleman from the north is genuine
the repairs on the sanctuary will begip
acknowledgements.

The Ola Man Knew TIC Town.

A grizzled old man who registered
at a Cincinnati hotel the other day
had apparently read the stories of res
taurant cxtortion at the worlds fair.
While he was registering the handy
porter took his valise and was about
to store it away in the check room.
Here, there" called out the stranger,
"give that back to me. My grub is in
that" And SO it was, for inquiry
elected the fact that the old man had
started out for the worlds fair with two
weeks grub in his valise. He had
q whole ham, two whole beef tongues,
cakes, crackers, a jar of butter and
his farm in Tennessee.

ENGLISH SERVANTS GRIEVANCE

Object to Sitting Up Late and Cleaning
Bicycles.
A demonstration of domestic serv-
ants, male and female, was held in
Hyde Park this week, in the vicinity of
~Serpentine, for the purpose of de
handing immediate redress of manifold
grievances" says the London News.
There was a fairly good attendance, the
majority of those present being females,
and the chairman, who said that he
reasons the names of the speakers
would not be given. Among those who
spoke were a coachman, groom, house
maid, two footmen and a page boy.
From their utterances it would appear
that they labor under a great many
evils, which the page boy said "cried
aloud for redress" One Of the most
important is the character system, and
this the c~onveners of the demonstration
thought to be scandalous as it now ex-
listed. The meeting wished the legis-
lature to make it compulsory for a mas
ter or mistress to give an honest en-
ploye a good character, and the next
grievance in Importance was said to be
sleeping accommodations. Frequently,
the speaker asserted, servants were
compelled to sleep in most unhealthy
places-for instance, in tiny rooms built
underneath stairs, from which light was
excluded. Again, the domestic servant
complains bitterly of the callousness
of many an employer who returns home
from his club during~tu e early hours of
the morning, and though he has caused
his domestic to sit up for him. he or
she is expected to rise at the usual time.
The gentleman engaged as a footman
had a special grievance. Why should
he clean a bicycle? Wasn't it the duty
Of the groom? More money and less
work the meeting demanded in the res
o%lution, which was carried mem CON-,
also more friendly relations between
employers and employed.

Tcmperature Of tho Room.

81 look upon it as an absolute Inn
pertinence for one adult person to die
tate to another the proper temperature
of a room,' a woman of sense remarked
not long since. The people who do
such things are, for the most part, in
tolerably selfish and interested only in
their own comfort. They have no
more right to regulate the State of the
mercury for me, than to order the
amount of sugar in my coffee. or if I
shall have my beef rare or we'll done.
Because some medical authority
has declared that 74e to 76o is a medi-
UNI temperature, these themometric
cranks fling doors and windows open
and shut up heaters to suit them
selves. New York Ledger.

"Character revealed in a face is a
familiar enough phrase, but 'face re-

often hear of. A telegraph operator
who works the New York end of a line
between that city and Philadelphia

he asked the writer whether he '1new

answer in the affirmative, he went on
to say that he had been telegraphing

he continued, Il have never seen him,
nor have l seen his picture; yet I have
