NEW LEANING TOWER.
A Tall Building in Syracuse That is Out
of Plumb.

A Tall Building in Syracuse That is Out
of Plumb.
A rival to the famous leaning tower
of Pisa has been developed in America.
1t is located in Syracuse and is more
than 300 feet in height. The structure
is Is inches out of plumb and leans
threateningly over the heads of the
passersby, apparently ready to fall.
This seeming instability is the cause
Of a sharp strife now going on in syria
cuse. The more or less generally ok
pressed opinion is that the tower IN it's
present condition is q source of immi
nent danger, and the Syracuse common
council has declared it's existence a
menace to the public. But the owner
and the architect both deny that there
is the least danger of the structures
suffering eny further departure from
the perpendicular and are more than
certain that it is still in a condition to
resist any ST. ain likely to come upon it.
From the present outlook it seems more
than likely that the views of the archi
tect will be accepted as correct, and
the tower will be left, one Of the chief
curiosities of the town.
Il is only quite recently that the
tower has been Of the leaning variety.
II was thrown out of plumb by the
tornado which not long ago visited
Syracuse. The wind which demolished
less strongly built structures in the
neighborhood struck the tower on two
faces, but succeeded only in springing
the framework sufficiently to tip the
tower a little to one side, without, it is
claimed, seriously damaging it.-Chic.

OLD HOUSES.

Last week we wrote up ulolS
than forty of the new buildings
now going up, and the people
we're delighted with this subs
stancial evidence of midwinter
progress. But in going around
no:ing the scores of new build
ines we were panied to see SO
many old eye-sores in the way OF
old delapjdated, unoccupied ran
shackle buildings. These build
ings are only harboripg places
for vermin, thieves, tramps and
other dogs and cattle. They are
also fire traps, and greatly en-
danger occupied dwellings near
them. Only the other night one
of these old fire traps, near the
residence of Mr.. John P. Over
man, took FIRE, evidently from
the match of a tramp, and II the
wind had been right would, III
all probability, burned his hand
some residence These cid
rookeries are all over town and
On some of the very best lots.
They are a danger and a menace
The town council should con-
denim them and order the own
ers to remove them at ono.
These things are not only un-
slightly but expensive nulsances
Strangers get an unfavorable
impression of the town because
of them. Let the city council
order general old house clear
ing up, and every citizen of any
taste and enterprise will breath
easier and be profoundly thank
full
Most of these old buildings
are owned by the wealthiest citi
zens in the community. Ii these
old houses were photographed
and the faces of their owners
pictured i'll their glassless ana
doorless vacancies it would cause
the blush OF shame, and perhaps
surprise.
We do not want to be meddle-
some or eficious, but we are the
mouth-piece of our patrons and
they are crying for relief.
In several cases good new
buildings would be put up, but
for the fact that one Of these cid
eye-sores stands on an adjoining
lot and would discount the value
of the new building. No man
has a right to interfere with the
value of another's property and
plans in this way.
Let everybody take up the cry,
