Department Clerks Pay Days.
TIM Editor Of Tho Evap;pu

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
1 was glad to read in Saturday evenings
Star that the treasury official who inau-
gurated the plan to pay the clerks four
times month has awakened to the fact
that his scheme was bad one and now
trust that he will use his influence toward
a return to the old system of paying but
twice a month. l am heartily in favor of
the semi-monthly plan and l believe the
majority of the clerks in the treasury will
favor it. Now, if Secretary Gage will push
the button the disbursing clerks will do the
rest TREASURY CLERK

It is given to few people to under- stand the workings of the child minu, and it is only by the exercise of pa- tienee and the utmost sincerity that one can get to know the ideas and de- sires that are formed in the ever busy little brains. A pretty story was once told by Sir Edwin Arnold of three children of his acquaintance. whom he asked at their he'd time. when about to say their prayers, if they would pray for what they wanted most After the two eldest had made their requests, the youngest, little girl, knelt down and, putting her hands together, said: Dear God. love me when am naugh- ty. like mamma"

Austrian Court Customs.

Tn the Austrian court it is contrary to custom for perishable articles to ap- pear twice on the imperial table. The result is large perquisites for the at tendants To one man fall all nn- eorked bottles, to another the wine left in the glasses, to another the joints. and to still another the game or the sweets. Every morning a sort of mar I5et $ held in the basement of the pal ace, where the Viennese come to pur- chase the remains.-New York Post.

GERMANS STRANGE rIMEpiEcE
Took Him Years to Make His a4o.ooo
 Clock


 A remarkable clock is to be placed on exhibition here in the near future 1t has taken Is years for the inventor, Carl Julius Speath, native of Baden, Germany. to build it. Not until 1884 did he start to build this clock. It is what the inventor calls an astro- nomical art clock. All parts of it were made by Speath himself out of raw material. The smaller parts are plated with gold or silver, the larger parts gre of nickel. The case is r feet high I feet wlde. and ? feet deep, and is made out of oak wood, waxed and pol. ishea the top, at the left hand. staH s poster, which crows three ti before the clock strikes F. The , crow immediately brings Out a zekoo, which chirps if the seq son picture beneath the roof shows spring; a quail appears and shrieks if it is summer; in autumn a bull jumps out and bellows, and in winter lion rushes forth and roars. At the top, on the right hand, stands the angel Gabriel. who blows his horn after the striking of each hour In the gallery beneath the roof stand the four eyangelists, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Two statues stand in another apartment and strike the quarter hours. Near the first quarter-hour stroke stands a child, near the second 8 young man, near the third a man fully developed and near the fourth an old man. These figures are sup posed to illustrate the four stages of human existence. In the center of the gallery is the Savior, seated upon the clouds, holding book and a cross and showing his wounds. The astronomical part of the clock is very elaborate. The eclipses Of the sun and moon are shown distinctly and predicted accu- rately. The position of the stars and their movements are also shown very beautifully. The milky way, equator, zodiac, and meridians are painted on Q globe. At the lower right-hand cor ner is an extra indication of the date. weekday, and month, with the illus trations after which the week days are named. The whole clock weighs only 335 pounds, but it's appraised value in Germany is S400OO-New York Jour nal.

The Highest Tower.

The highest tower ii the world IS presently to be built as one Of the great attractions of Buffalo during the Pan, American exposition. which is to be held in that city in 1901. It is to be 1,152 feet nigh, and 400 feet square at the base. and will be a much more or uamental building than the Eiffel tower. It will be served by no fewer than g electric elevators, sixteen of which will run only to The first landing, 225 feet above the level Of the ground. The whole journey from the bottom to the top will necessitate four changes of elevators, and will take about six minutes, while the elevators will have carrying capacity of 10000 an hour The estimated cost of this tower, which will be built of steel, is S8G0. 900, or about twice as much as that of the Eiffel tower.
