The Highest Clock in the
World,

The minute hand of the City Hall
clock will finish its first years journey
by completing 110-mile trip on New
Years Day. 1t is expected that this
minute hand will travel 10 miles an
nually for many years to come. The
clock is strong, and the minute hand
is phosphor bronze, and weighs $50
pounds.
This is one of the interesting state
ments CLEANED from the lecture deliv-
cred by Warren S. Johnson, designer
of the clock, at the meeting of the
Franklin Institute last night From
noon on October 25 to noon on Deem
Der goth the astronomical clock, which
runs the main tower clock, gained four
seconds. The error is corrected each
day by the clock in the Washington
observatory.
This clock is the highest in the
world. 1t has the largest dials. If
the dials were out of the way and
tracks were laid two trains could pass
each other running through the holes.
The glass in the four faces is fastened

The Money Disappeared.

The grocery establishment of e. NJ
Mozlnter on Green street, was. film
flammed out of 81 in very peculiar
way last evening. Four young men,
two tall and two short, were in the
store during the evening and bought
some stuff. One of the boys bought a
dimes worth of candy and gave a sill
yer dollar to young Mozinter who
waited on him, and who put the money
in the drawer and gave the fellow
back ninety cents in change; another
of the boys bought a ten cent toy Of
Mrs. Mozinter and gave her a paper
dollar, which she placed in the draw
er and gave him ninety cents in
change.
The boys went out and soon after
ward the paper dollar and the silver
dollar were both missing from the
drawer, much to the mystification of
the shopkeepers. The police were no.
tified of the loss, and searched the
town over for the suspected parties,
but failed to find them.

PROGRAMME
Of the Speeches at the Pencil Push
ers' Banquet,

The final arrangements for the ban
quet to be given the newspaper men
at the Bellevue Christmas night have
been made and all is now in readiness
for the grand affair.
The program of speeches as arrang-
ed by special committee self-appoint-
ed for the purpose, appears below.
uncle John" Lansley will act as
toast master, and with his wit and elo-
quence and the gestures that he learn
ed years ago in the public schools of
Beverly, there is no doubt that the Sc
lection was wise one. But IL II
proves not so, the quill pushers will
have to grin and bear it. The pro-
gram of speeches as arranged is as fol-
lows:
A. d. Alderman-How to get the
nomination for Secretary of State.
Geo. M. Cooke-The Scissors Might
erer than the Sword.
Jacob Mueller-The Difficulties of
Translating English as she is writ by
Will Richardson.
B. ]. McKlnney-How to boss the
Ohio Centennial at Toledo. and the
Pleasure of being the Whole Push.
Jesse Mercer-The Thirst OF a
Quaker"
Chas. w. Rife-The Ninth Com
mandment
Frank McKinney-How to Write a
Theatrical Notice to make Lou Luchs
Warm.
James F. Hovey-Views Afoot-
Sioux City to Marietta.
None of these speeches will be print
ed in the newspapers and it is indeed
lamented fact for the gems OF
thought that will glitter there that
night must fade away and disappear
forever from the sight of mortal men.
