He says that MI. Lincoln would always
listen attentively to what he had to say
and then tell a funny story. On his way
back to the hotel he would think over
the story, and finally see that it landed
his candidate way out Of sight.

A ~sMoKEsTAcK PROBLEM.
Many Schemes hat Failed Before tn
High Chimney Was Painted.

Many Schemes That Failed Before the
High Chimney Was Painted.
At the cement works on the west
shore of Hampstead harbor there is Il
smokestack 1873 feet high and 8 feet in
diameter. which has long needed paint
ing. The manager thought the time had
come to dispose of the job. Two of the
foremen, the shovel engineer and u
young carpenter set their wits to work
to contrivc Il way of getting Il rope up
through the pipes interior and down Oh
the outside so that an apparatus could
be rugged - hoist the painter.
One Of the Italians suggested letting
a pigeon loose to fly up inside Of the
stack, but this solved only half the prob
lem. Another workman suggested a
small balloon. The first one to formu-
late what seemed a feasible plan was the
head foreman, who fastened 10 feet of
small brass chain to a rocket, and tc
thata cord, and then sent them skylark-
ing through the pipe. AS a spectacle it
was fine, but the heat from the powder
burned off the chain, and the string
was left at it's starting point. Then the
younger foreman tried. He had made a
kite having two strings, one Of which
went through q pulley attached near the
kite, which had a small iron weight
fastened to its upper end, the intention
being to fly the kite until it was direct
ly owe the smokestack, and then lower
the weight down into the interior.
The kite worked beautifully until it
was time for it to be useful, when it
turned a aomersault, tangling itself in
the pulley tackle, and the whole thing
came to grief. Then the carpenter began
to talk. He, too, remembered boyish
pastimes and believed they could be
turned to account. His idea was to as
cend the cable tower. 90 feet distant
and 1870 feet high, and from this posi-
ton throw into the smokestack a weight
tied to a string. The wind was blowing
q gale, but this did not discourage the
man, and he, with the two foremen, as
cended the tower for performance No. g..
To throw a two pound weight fasten-
ed to q string was nc easy matter, and
it vas exceedingly difficult to keep a
foothold on the tower. After three trials,

save that the string broke. Later the
carpenter tried again, casting the weight
four times before it entered the stack.
When the rigging to hoist the painter
was in order, there was a call for vol
unteers, but only Il man responded.
He was the shovel engineer, Will Sny-
der, from Chicago. He has had an ex-
perience in work in high places, for
whenever the steel cable, 140 feet above
the ground, needs tarring Snyder gets a
paint pot, swings himself astride the
framework Of the traveller and paints
the cable as the traveller goes back and
forth on its regular business.
Several of the men employed at the
cement works seem to be born acrobats,
and they work far up in the air as easily
as on the ground, SO that when repairs
are needed ON the towers or cables
and cool, level headed men must be had
there has lever been any necessity to go

Hammerins Sense Into Him.

"I'm cured, declared a young fellow
with good looks aud an abundance Of
animal spirits to several of his boon
companions the other evening. "You
know that my sister Lena clerks down
town and is frequently detained till
after dark. On such occasions she walks
home with a girl friend in the same es-
Enlistment. Lena has always said that
if any man ever tried to stop them she
would make it so hot for him that he
would try to find some honest employ
ment, and l thought I'd just test her
courage for the fun of the thing.
II did. When the girls were hurrying
along about two blocks from home, !
sprang out of an alley, stuck an empty
revolver in their fuces, ordered them to
throw up their hands and told them
that a scream from either Of them would
mean immediate death. The other girl
went to screeching, but Lena was loaded
for bear and swiped mo over the head
with an iron poker that had dangled
from her belt under her cloak. l tried
to explain, but she was too excited to
heed anything but the job she had un-
dertaken. l was knocked down, but she

City Hall Notes

Eliza C. Flores has petitioned the coun-
Gil to order the sale at auction of certain
lands occupied by her and upon which
the city has a claim that acts as cloud
to her title to the property. She has
erected improvements upon the lands
and the sale would give her clear title
to the whole provided she was the high
est bidder.
Charles Stimson and Oscar Macy have
filed in the clerks Office petitions asking
the council to deed to them the right Of
way to a zanja near their property on
Main street between Macy and Walters.
Similar action has been taken with ref
erence to the property of others there
and as the zanja has long been unused
they state that the right to it is of no
value to the city.
Property owners along Eighteenth
street between Griffith avenue and Es-
sex street have called the attention of
the council to the drainage along that
street. One side of the thoroughfare is
higher than the other and the water
collects and stays there. The proper re-
pairs are asked for.
The regular meeting of the supply
committee of the city council was held
yesterday. There was nothing before
the committee except the usual requisi-
tions.
The sewer committee will recommend
to the council the granting of the request
of A. d. Williamson to make sewer con-
nections at his property at Pico and
Wall streets.
Numerous applications have been
made during the past few weeks by tax
payers for the return of small amounts
alleged to have been enormously as
sessed against them, and in many cases
these demands have been discovered to
have been the result of double assess
ments. Whenever the claims are just
the finance committee has reported in
favor of their being allowed. The
great number of the claims will reduce
some of the funds as apportionments Of
all money to be received have been
made.
