WORLDS GREATEST BOILER.

pletely in the shade. This boiler was
built for the New York Steam COM
pany by the Edgar Boiler company,
limited, of Warren, Pa. 1t took six
months to complete it, and it cost S12,-
900. It is twenty-three feet six inches
high-being an upright boiler-and
something over 20 feet in circumfer-
ence. 1t weighs 5000 pounds, and has
u capacity of 1000 horsepower.
The boiler was shipped from Warren
to Jersey City on car used in trans
porting the heaviest guns. 1t reached
Jersey City the other day, and was
brought to the foot of West Eleventh
street by the Chapman Derrick and
Wrecking company on float built ex-
pressly for the job. The boiler was
transferred from the foot of West
Eleventh street to the boiler station OF
the steam company on track belong
ing to Thomas McLarnon. A team of 30
horses was required. The cost of trans
porting the boiler to Dey street from
Jersey City was $1,000.

TOM PAINE IN BRONZE
Large Bust Portrait to Be Erected
at Washington.
1t VIII BE Dynamite Proof and Patterned
After tho Bust Being Made for
the Monument OF Paine at
New Rochelle.

Thomas Paine, the revolutionar.
statesman and the great agnostic of his
time, is to be commemorated by the
largest bronze portrait bust ever made,
which is to be erected at the national
capital by the Paine Historical society
1t will be patterned after an heroic
bronze bust now being modelled by vii,
son Macdonald, the oldest living Ameri'
can sculptor, and the president of the
society.
The society intends to purchase II
small piece of land in Washington and or
it place the bust, which will be mounted
on heavy bronze pedestal, constructed
without crack or opening, so as to be
made as nearly dynamite proof as pos.
sible.
1--WE think this Is necessary" says
Mr.. Macdonald, whom a New Yorb
Herald man found in his Sixth avenue
studio working on the first clay mode
of the bust which he is to make. "No'
SO necessary at once, yet best in view OF
the treatment that has been received by
the Paine grave and monument at New
Rochelle. The head and foot stones OF
the grave were broken many years ago
and all that is left of them is this little
piece, no larger than your two hands,
which an old lady living by the grave
found and gave to Capt. George w
Lloyd, who gave it to me. See the shot

and corners, the inscriptions partially
defaced and almost ruined. With the

day, but we propose to make the bust
and pedestal of the monument so strong
and to anchor them so securely that
nothing short of very large charge OF
dynamite can destroy them"
The proposed colossal bust will be alb

of the most imposing works of the sort
in existence. 1t will be of gigantic pro.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness. and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infiamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube
When this tube gets infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an in1amed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

Crabs ForetelI PATRONAGE.

For some time previous to the day
upon which the great earthquake of
August, 1857, occurred, great swarms Of
crabs of an unknown variety were seen
in the Bay Of Payta, Chilli. They all
appeared to be greatly excited, and were
literally climbing over each other in
their efforts to escape the impending
calamity. How they knew that the
earthquake was collecting its strength
to desolate the coast is more than man
can say, but that they knew that sone-
thing unusual was about to happen
there is no doubt whatever. That there
were millions of them may be inferred
from the report of DR.. Forbes, who
says that "ten days after the earth
quake the dead crabs were thrown upon
the beach in q wall-like line, three to
four feet wide, along the whole extent
of the bay"

The curiousity of people to see the
new one and two dollar certificates
has doubtless already been noted by
the practical politicians.
Most Of our Presidential campaigns
have been fights between the Gins
and the "outs", but this one is being
fought by two "outs", with Gins
for onlookers.
The refusal of Mr.. Winslow to re-
main on the democratic gubernatorial
ticket in Maine seems to be shot in
Mr.. Sewall's rear.
Not for years has any important is
sue been so squarely presented to the
people as the silver question is in the
present campaign. Let us hope that
the victory will be overwhelming.
The old line politicians appear to
be doing an unusual lot of thinking
this year; the chasm is too wide to
be straddled.
Some people are apt to question
the benefit the world gets from o
"sanctified" evangelist, like Krump-
Ter, who is said to be driving North
Carolinians crazy by the scores.
Some men might find it dangerous
to follow the example of the Chica.
goan who mistook his father-in-law
for a burgler and shot him. The old
man might carry gun, too.
1t would be a joke on the demo
cratic party if Sewall should retire
in favor of Tom Watson.
Nobody will accuse the populists
of expecting large campaign contri
buttons from their candidate for Vice
President.
Mr.. Bryan appears to be enjoying
his present situation to the utmost
whatever he may think about hi:
chance for getting elected.
1t is to be presumed that the Jer
seyman who has sued for divorce be-
cause his wife wore red boomers il
not an admirer of that color.
Senator Sherman is to stump the
West and candidate Bryan the East
1t is 16 to / that Sherman makes the
most converts.
