LOSING FINANCIALLY.
Parkersburg Club Proves Unprofitable and
May be Disbanded.

The Parkersburg Journal of Friday
evening says: The prospects are very
ripe that lovers of base ball in this city
will have to go elsewhere to see the
great national game, as it is very like
ly that Manager Marcus will give up
his franchise in the O.-W Va. league
and disband his club.
The cause of this is the poor support
the team is receiving. Yesterdays re-
ceipts were $50 despite the fact that
the GAINESVILLE team, the best in the
league, opened up series with the To-
cal club, and also in the face of the
fact that the Killers won Wednesday, S
game from Marietta That was a
pretty poor showing. Each game
played on the local grounds costs Mar
Gus $3.50 and it is easy to see that he
cannot afford to lose on every game.
Marietta is supporting its team, al
though it has been playing losing ball.

the work Of ordinary Indians. Through

The original Lincoln cabin had been

Mr.. A. w. bennett, New York gen.

er much difficulty restored the cabin
exactly ms it was originally, using the
very same timbers, door, window and
frames. 1t occupies the former site,
and is in much the same condition as 1t
was when the Lincolns left 1t. The
cabin is 1S feet long, 16 feet wide, and
about 12 feet high, counting from the
floor to the ridge-pole. There is only
one door and one window-the latter an
opening 20 inches square. A large
open fireplace, built in the most primi-

one end of the cabin. The chimney
is made of small logs, placed together
just as log houses are built. Inside
of it, fiat stones placed on the ground

A NOVEL FOUNDATION.
pyramids of Cement Resting on he'd
rock,

rock.
The new $4,000,000 federal building
in Chicago will stand on series Of
points instead of resting on founda-
tion extending evenly along the entire
wall line. The weight of the huge
structure will be so adjusted that it
will rest on cement columns 80 feet
apart, these columns going down tn
bed rock 72 feet below the surface Of
the earth. This is the plan adopted in
modern bridge building and represents
the most advanced progress in that
field of construction. The mode of eX-
cavating for the foundation is very in.
teresting and simplicity itself A Sec
tion of wrought-iron tube of the de-
sired diameter is set upon the ground
on its rim and as the earth within the
circle is removed the tube sinks. When
the top of the first section settles down
to the level of the earth's surface
second section is placed above it and
the digging process is continued. One
section after another disappears and
bed rock is eventually reached without
the slightest disturbance to the sur
rounding material occurring. There is
no settling Of neighboring foundations,
no tottering walls, no alarm or disquiet
of any sort.
When the excavation is completed
there is a clean iron-walled hole into
which the cement is poured and sub
jected to the sscessary pressure. When
the iron tut E is filled the job is fin.
Ished, the iron casing being allowed
to remain. The columns which will
constitute the foundation for the Chi.
cago building will vary in diameter
from 12 to IS feet. Through the wear
and tear of ages they will support all
the weight that they will be called
upon to bear.
BY this plan it will not be necessary
to drive piling down to bed rock or to
resort to any of the methods for max
ing broad bases for foundations to rest
upon, so familiar 10 Chicago builders

will be entirely eliminated. Cement
columns have been tried in the con
struction of all the great iron and stee
bridges built in recent years and found
to be wholly satisfactory. There il
no guesswork, no speculation as to tht
precise weight cement column of GER

will sustain. 1t is simple mathemat
