From the New York Press
Charles Broadway Rouss, the blind mer-
chant is building a mausoleum IN Win
chester. Va, which, for cost and elegance,
viii surpass anything in the United States
When completed this beautiful resting
place for the dead win have cost in the
neighborhood of 10000. It was designed.
by c. E. Tayntor & Co., OF this city, who
also have the contract for erecting il. II
win take a year TO compete it.
This structure is of Grecian-Doric arch
itecture, and is a perfect model of the
Theseum in Athens, which was built about
400 b. c. TO receive the bones of the Athen-
ian hero, Theseus, brought home from
Scyros. II is TO be built of the best Barre,
Vt. granite, and the interior will be finish
ed in coloyed marbles.
The building will be 26 feet long and 25
feet wide and 10 feet high. with solid pod-
ments in the front and rear. The roof win
be composed of three stones, each three
feet long and nine feet wide, Weighing %
IONS each Each pedlment stone wiz weigh
% tons. Around The mausoleum are thirty
six fluted columns, each column and cap
cut from solid granite. Ii also is ornament
ed with frieZe trolygphs, each freze on
stone.
Inside there will be twelve inches built
in the wall, with sliding marble panels
to cover them Stained glass windows
viii give the building the appearance of
a chapel.
The inches are built one above each
other, and facing the east win be two sar-
cophagi, which are to hold the bodies or
Mr.. Rouss and his wife. Immediately
above them Is a beautiful stained glass
window, designed by one of the foremost
artists in New York These sarcophagi are

The floor of the mausoeum will he one
piece Of solid polished granite. and the
doors viii be huge affairs of solid bronze
Underneath the mausoleum there is to be
a crypt with twelve more inches 1t win
be entered by "a blind staircase from the
outside. This staircase will be hidden
from view by a solid bluestone. which viii
be covered with sod, as it is not intended
to use the crypt until the upper part or
the mausoleum is filed.
Altogether this tomb will contain more
than 800 tons of granite. In the eleganl
simplicity of its design it will have no
equal outside of Genoa, Athens or Flor
cnce.
Several years ago Mr. Rouss erected in
Winchester to the memory Of his son
what Is still considered the finest monu-
meut in the South. It is on lot adtoin-
ing that on which the mausoleum Is to

giuoer on the Western ana Atlantic Rail-

From the Kansas city Times.
A new disease has made Its appearance
10 Philadelphia. 1t has been christened by
the medical profession dog palsy. Its vic
Tins are mostly women who are IN the
habit of leading dogs on the streets. The
continual frohcing Of the CANNES causes
an affection Of the nerves and the hand
usually the right, which swings and
shakes just as if it were holding a cord
or chain to which risky dog was at
tached
Dog palsy is the result of the change
within the past few years in the fashion
IN canine pets. When the pug dog was
the proper thing for a woman 10 nurse
and coddie while her offspring was tucked
away in the nursery with
maid there was no danger Of
the disease. Pug dogs were
not led; they were carried. They We're too
fat, TOO short of limb and too indolent to
walk. 10 say nothing about gamboing at
the end of a chain like a lamb on a hili
side on sunny spring day
But styles changed. The pug dog has
had mis- day and the fox terrier is now the
reigning favorite of the swell set. Fox
terriers are too restless to admit of their
being carried, hence the fashion is to lead
them. They are led in name only, how
ever for they insist upon running ahead
OF their mistresses and lodging about I'M
der vehicles, street cars and horses hoofs.
They are decidedly biustry and, fully
aware that their owners will not allow
them 10 engage in a rough-and- tumble
street fight insist upon challenging every
cur they get sight of 10 mortal combat.
This excessive activity on their part keeps
their mistresses in a high state of nerv-
Gus excitement all the time and eventual
~ brings on dog palsy.
