startling about the suggestion OF a
surveying tower, you say Just wait
till you hear all. You will enter a
leaning cylindrical tower about 50 feet
high, and made of tempered steel. IL
looks like nothing more imposing than
metallic Tower of Pisa. You will
find a circular seat inside, capable OF
holding about 20 persons. You viii sit,

Sea-birds frequently spend weeks at
sea, and are believed to quench their
thirst partly from the falling rains and
partly from the fat and oil which they
devour ravenously when opportunity
puts it in their way. The keen eye
sight of birds is well known, and sea-
birds have been observed focking to-
wards the storm cloud, about to burst,
from all points Of the compass, and ap-
parently drinking in the water as it
descends from the skies.
Another opposition steamer has been
put on the Central American route,
On this occasion there will be no at
tempt to secure New York freight, but
everything in sight from Panama to
San Francisco, Cal, will be sought for
and cut rates will be the result. San
Diego, Cal, will be the principal port
of entry, and the trade of San Diego
and Los Angeles Counties will be cat
cred to. This means that San Diego
and Los Angeles are in combination
to take away the Central American
trade from San Francisco, and while
the Pacific Mail will suffer, the mer-
chants of that city will have to row in
the same boat.

New York, Dec o3.-Certain trusts uri-

were today declared invalid by the SUI
preme court. The suit in which the de-
cisior was rendered was brought by the
executors under the viii, who asked for
a construction of certain clauses in the

corded by the court Of appeals. by which
the res;duary trust was declared Illegal.

clauses 81 and 81 Of the will, which dealt
with the establishment of free Libraries

Both these trusts are declared to be
open to the fatal objection that they vio-
late the statute against perpetuation.

ter of Mrs. Pelton. the court says, is en-
titled TO receive the principal of the
trust fund which was created for her
grandmother, Of $4,000, while Adelaide
Buchanan is TO receive the principal Of
the trust fund of $4,000 created for the
benefit OF her mother, Lucy F. Tilden.

whether the trustees have the power to

at 100000, left by the testator 10 Miss

investment without the beneficiary 5

AS the scheme contemplated by the
testator to establish a library in TIL,

able for the whole of the residuary estate
