dull on the political outlook and in sympathy
with the Paris bourse, which was unsettled
owing 10 the Dreyfus agitation and the
threatening position of the ministry. Chi
nese securities were a shade higher, and Jap
anese a shade lower. American railway Sc
curities were mostly lower, In sympathy with
Wall street, but the feeling was hopeful.
The chief decreases were in Southern Pacific

HISTORIC HALL CRASHES.
Wind Causes Destruction of part OF
State House at PhtIadeIphia.

State House at Philadelphia.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Jan. %
With a deafening crash that was heard
for squares a portion of the east wing
Of the old state house fell tonight No
harm was done to the historic build
ing, as the arches which collapsed
were not connected with it, section
Of the wing next to the east wall of
Independence hall having been torn
out under the restoration plans now
being carried out.
The accident was due to the exposed
state Of the buildings. The two wings
had been torn down, with the excep-
ton of the arches on either side. The
east wall Of the east wing and the
west wall Of the west wing were left
standing to their full height, about
thirty feet.
1t was the opinion Of the contract
ors, men who were there, that the
mortar had been softened by the
heavy rain of Saturday night, and the
strong wind of tonight did the rest AT
the time Of the collapse the wind was
blowing almost a gale across Inde-
pendence square. A large area Of tin
roofing, very heavy, which had been
taken from the building, was lying
upon a pile of bricks. 1t was tossed
about by the wind almost like so much
paper.

STILL WATER NEWS,
Prominent Lumberman Bereaved-
Work in Pfneries Progresses.

Mrs. Fred Pennington, wife of welI-known
saltwater lumberman, died Saturday even
Ing of cancer. Deceased was 46 years old and
is survived by a husband and five children
She was an estimable lady and foremost in
charitable undertakings. The funeral will oc-
cur Tuesday afternoon.
During the past week work in the pineries
has progressed very favorably, and much
hauling has been done, regardless of the fact
that there is almost total absence of snow
in some localities The supposition now is that
loggers will get fully as many logs as they
went AFTER the season having been particu-
larly favorable for skidding operations. Many
skidding crews will have finished their work
by the early part of next week, but there is
hauling enough to do to keep the crews busy
until spring arrives.
The Saltwater Gun club will meet this
evening to discuss the proposed trap shoot
ing tournament to be given here early in the
coming summer.
A special term of the district court will
be held here tomorrow. 1t is expected Judge
