TO HOLD THE DOORS
Fireman J. N. Steed Invented d De-
vice Very Useful To theSDepdrt-

An important improvement has re-
Gently been made at the fire depart
ment. There are four entrances in
front for the wagons and each are two
heavy wooden doors which in case of an
alarm are opened by the drivers pull
ing string when ready to go out.
Hitherto when the doors swung open
there was nothing to catch them and
they would frequently swing back and
impede or strike the horses and wag-
ons as they shot by.
An apparatus has now been fitted
up to prevent this. 1t Is an Invention
of ]. M. Steed, driver of the chemical
engine, who, perceiving the disad-
vantages existing, Immediately set to
work to find a remedy for them and
has now applied for a patent on the
result of his labors.
The apparatus consists OF an iron
device with q spring which catches
the door as 1t swings back and holds 1t
firmly. A wooden framework acts as q
projection TO the doors. There are
six OF these devices for the eight
doors. The doors at the entrance for
the engine swing open inwardly and
are differently provided for in this re-
gard. The invention is conceded by
all who have examined it to be q most
excellent and useful device.
Mr.. Steed is a natural mechanic and
has made q number Of other inventions.
Among these is an improved car
coupler similar to the Janney now in
general use. The latter came out just
as Mr.. Steed was perfecting his inven.
ton and he found himself debarred
from realizing any benefit from his
idea. Another invention is an auto

he growled softly as though ne were
chuckling to himself
Almost daily after that he furnished
new evidence of his pious hypocrisy.
He would stink meekly into a group Of
dogs standing in the middle of the
street, sniff around them in little ter
rOr-strickeR shifts, jump away when
any Of them deigned to notice him,
and finally, from the sheer disgust and
| contempt he inspired he would induce
one or all of them to chase him down
the block. And that was just what his
Irish soul hungered for. It always
ended as it had with the cat I never
saw him whipped but once, and that
was by his cousin, an English bull
terrier.
"The Eenglishman was too thorough
a Sportsman even to notice him. They
used to meet nearly every day, and the
Irishman, disguised ~ his Dutch make
up, tried every trick in his repertoire
to get the other into a fight He would
, slide 10 to him and sniff timidly. and
when that failed utterly he took to
grOveling when he saw the bull terrier
approaching. But all his tricks failed:
the terrier disdained to notice him. and
finally one morning the little buff-cOI-
ored hypOcrite forgot himself. Enraged
beyond endurance at the continued
Sights and the insulting disregard Of
his presence, he swelled out his chest
and staggered up to the terrier and
called him all the names in his cOmbi-
nation Dutch and Irish vocabulary at
once. For a second the sporting ter
Tier looked down at my friend in
voiceless astonishment. Then he closed
his long, slim Jaws over the halfway
mark in the dachshund's spine, and as
pretty dog fight as l have ever seen
was on. The Dutchman never hOIIered
or cried quits. and finally managed to
/ get a half Nelson on the terriers hind
| leg. 1 thought he was going to break
| 1t III two. and 1 think he would have
IN time, but the Englishman had the
best of the weights, and with a sudden
| jerk he swung the long. low DUtchman
clear over his head. And that ended the
fight. A policeman and the same old
janitOr counted my friend out, and
when he hObbled past my window / no.
ticed he wasn't ehuckling any"

riety on the Stage.

Paris, June 10. - The golden har-
vest of the exposition has at last
begun. Twice this week the num-
Der of visitors exceeded half a
million, which surpasses the figures of
the 1889 exposition at a similar period
1t is estimated that over 5000. 900 per-
sons have now passed the turnstiles
The greatest difficulty now is expert
enced in getting from the grounds 1T
night, the street car and omnibus faeili-
ties being utterly inadequate to cone
with the immense crowds; and the
cabmen are having high times, de-
handing and getting fancy prices for
short trips home. 1t is nothing I'M
usual for them to ask 81 for a trip for
which the legal fare is 80 cents.
The electrical arrangements at the
Chateau d Eau have been repaired and
the Examinations during the evening
are now very brilliant and effective.
American Pavilion Improved.
The American pavilion was closed
four days this week for the improve
ment of its internal decorations. A
large piece of Statuary representing
three wild brOnchOs forms a very
striking center piece and about il are
palms and flowers and a circular sofa.
The walls have been reprinted q softer
color, relieving the former glare of
white, and a number of paintings have
been hung. Further improvements are
contemplated
The juries have begun their tasks

each group are hard at work seeking

PEACHES" HAD NERVE.
How One Young Man Managed to Get
His Lunch.

Peaches is the name by which a GER
tain young man is Familiarity known in
billiard rooms and other places where
young men cOngregate at night, says the
Indianapolis Press. There Is nothing
specially remarkable about Peaches. -
except his unlimited self-assurance.
Wright 5. Jordan, travelling passenger
agent of the Big Four was present at tha
most gigantic exhibition of this nerve"
that Peaches has probably ever made.
II was nearly four years ago, shortly
after the nomination of the two national
tickets. Excursions were being run from
all parts of the United States into Canton.
One of the excursions from Indianapolis
had with it no less a parsonage than
teaches" He tells the story of how he
ate luncheon with Mark Hanna and Mrs.
Mckinley as follows;
THE crowd was something fierce and it
was a shame the way that bunch Of
HOOsiers made wreck of what remained
OF the Mckinley fences and OutbutldingS-
Every guy thought he had to carry away
something as souvenir, II ne could get
nothing more appropriate than hair
from the family s:Orse's tail or a feather
from the big rooster, which was finally
glad to escape with his life. Why, those
people even fought among themselves for
broken dishes. old barrel hoops and refuse
from the house They tore UP the grape
vines by the roots, and carried away
blades Of grass from the lawn.
while this was going on outside 7 went
on a fOraging expedition into the house L
thought 1 would get a souvenir worth my

and finally reached the library, where L
thought ] certainly ought to make a Sc
lection. ! was very much interested IN
several pieces of statuafy1- and was de-
batting with myself which would be the
best revenue producer, when the butler
came in and announced that luncheon was
ready.
81 was hungry enough to have eaten the
butler. I saw he took me for an invited
guest, and L thought l would carry out
the deception and see how far 1t would
work. The servant found me seat at the
table at the left Of Senator Hanna and
opposite Mrs. Mckinley. I do not re-
member much about the conversation, 1
was terribly hungry and wanted to put
in my time to advantage, and then l was
afraid the deception might be discovered,
and that would have spoiled my appetite
The fact is. | think both Mrs Mckinley
and her guest understood the situation,
but did not suspect that the other dds

embarrassment that my exposure would

next December We hope to be able to
make complete revision of this inter-
nal revenue taxation, and to make a
considerable reduction in the amount
of taxes levied. We do not want to go
at it piecemeal That would satisfy
few or none, and disappoint many. We
want TO so at it intelligently. and with
justice to all the people, and thus pro-
duce some good results for the coun-
try"
Thinks Pledge Should Be Kept
Another prominent member Of the
committee says: Il feel that congress
owes It to the country to redeem the
pledge made that these extraordinary
taxes would not be levied a single mo-
ment after they ceased to be required.
From the present outlook it would
seem as though at least so per cent
might come off, and probably more, but
the surplus for the present year will
hardly exceed $50, 600 600, while the war
revenue act brings us in over 500 000,-
600.
When l speak Of a reduction of so
per cent l do not mean that it viii be
a horizontal cut, such as was suggested
in the motion of Mr.. Richardson, the
Democratic leader. Tkere will be con-
siderable revision, and it is quite pos
sible that some industries will be en-
tirely relieved. while other taxes viii
either be retained or merely reduced.
l cannot speak for the entire commit
tee, but l know the disposition Of sew
eral Republican members is toward the
repeal of these taxes which are borne
by manufacturers and dealers, and, If
1T is necessary to keep any part of the
act on the statute books, to retain tho
taxes that are evenly distributed over
the people at large. Until we can estt-
mate more accurately the probable cur
rent monthly surplus, it will not be
possible to see whether any tariff
questions will be considered by our
committee, except the duty on tea"

WHISKY In THE COOLER.
Old Railroad Conductor Tells How
Temperance Orator Was Trapped
(Pittsburg Post.)

'One of the queerest characters that
ever met said the old conductor, was
big Jake Wilson, who kept hotel at L.
Jake had barrels of the finest whisky and
ne liked nothing better than a joke. One
day we had an excursion and l was in
charge or the train 1t was a warm day,
ana the passengers were all thirsty, and
we noticed that one of the water coolers
IN the train was being well patronized.
thought the water in the cooler was pref
" good the way they were drinking it,
so ! went down the aisle and took drink
myself. But maybe that drink didn't as
tonish me. Why, it was fine whisky
pure and unauthorized, and / knew it
was some of old Jake's liquor. One old
maid with temperance tract in her
hand walked down and took a. good sWig
and you ought to have seen her pucker up
her mouth and then spit it out. An old
man who looked like a preacher went
down ana took a lineup fun, and he hap
pened TO look at the peculiar color of the
stuff, and thought il was the reflection
from the stained glass window, and he
swallowed half of il before he tumbed,
and then he wiped his lips, looked wise
and took his seat. An ITiShman got on to
the racket early in the start and was hors
de combat before long. Although il was
against the rules of the road to drink on
duty, the trainmen patroniZed the cooler
and / took few drinks myself, and then
a wise thought struck me and / went in
TO where there was a valve and shut off
the supply, When we got to NJ. we eX-
amined the cooler and found that il con-
tanned about two quarts OF the precious
stuff, which we carried away with US. 1t
seems that old Jake had taken three gal
Ions of his best, drained the water out
OF the cooler and replaced II with the
whisky, and by so doing he won a bet of
$40 that he could make Deborah Simpson,
the temperance lecturer drink whisky,
AID there was proof that Deborah had
taken a good swig. so Bill Adams paid
the bet, and we had some good liquor for
the next few days"
