One Was Planned by = Student Thirty
Years ago.
An old graduate of the Troy Poly
technic institute was looking at the
high Neave building few days ago,
reports the Cincinnati Commercial Tri-
bune, and said:
That high building makes me think
of a graduate of my class who was
marvel. We thought he was crazy, and
his mysterious end only deepens the
conviction that our suTmise was cor
rect. He was everlastingly speculat-
ing upon the seemingly improbable
AT one time he said that the day would
come when they would build houses
100 stories high, and to show how it
would be done he made u drawing of a
bridge, as we called it. standing on end
Then he said all you have to do to finish
spaces, put in the joists and raft ~, and
there you are. And that was more than
30 years ago, before the high buildings
had been thought of by any architect.
And the plans of the present are prac-
tically the same as proposed by Fay
when he was but boy. He graduated,
and was looked upon as the brightest
man of the class, though everyone
thought him peculiar. He went to the
west Colorado. I think-and disap-
peared as mysteriously as if he had gone
to another planet. think he was never
heard Of-at least I have never heard
of him from that day to this. Surely
genius and madness arc near allied"

FOREST CITY.

Thomas j. Pentecost a prominent
business man of Forest City, met with
an accident Wednesday afternoon that
will probably lay him up for several
weeks. He was driving down Main
street in his delivery wagon, when the
springs broke, allowing the front of the
wagon to drop down. The horse be-
came frightened and dashed along at
a furious rate. When at the corner of
Main and Center streets the animal
turned up the latter thOroughfare and
Mr.. Pentecost was thrown from his
seat to the ground, striking heavily
on his left elbow. The arm is so
badly swollen that it can not yet be
determined how serious the injury is,
but it seems probable that a severe
fracture has been sustained. Mr. Pen
tecost will probably go to a hospital
for treatment.
Little Ray Allen, who was so serious
ly injured on Tuesday, remains in about
the same condition.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York May 2O.-New Jersey Central
engrossed the largest share of attention
on the Stock Exchange today and regis
tered another sensational decline in a long
progress downward. The depression of
such weight on the market affected the
whole list. The general list from the
opening of the market showed the effect
OF the more serious phase assumed by the
Cuban question at Washington. Ameri-
cans were depressed in London and this
was said to be due in part to early sales
there on New York orders. New York
opened down to about the London parity.
But there were not lacking evidences of
recuperative power in the market during
the day, especially in the Grangers and
the railway list generally.
Total sales of stocks today were 15l ,90l
