Salt Lake, Utah, May 5.-A special to
the Deseret News from Scofield says that
five additional bodies We're brought out
of the No. mine this morning.
They are Richard 7. Reese, Alfred
Warile, l.. Kilenclo j. Lundgren and
Clyde Law.
The bodies We're horribly mutilated and
burned SO that identification was diff
cult. The bodies of Thomas Padfield, Ed.
Street, j. c. Hunter and John Pitman
are still in the mine.
These with the unidentified Fins taken
out bring the total up to exactly $50.
No others are known to be missing and
it is believed that all the men have now
been accounted for.

JUST FOR
Chicagos Ballots Would Reach from That
City to Kansas.

Chicagos Ballots WouId Reach from That
City to Kansas.
About LIPS, 900 ballots, each twenty
four by thirty inches, will be printed
by the election commissioners for Chi
cago at the fall election. Although
there will be no more than 400, 900 reg
istered voters, if anywhere near that
many, the excess is required by statute
so that no voter, owing to the acct
dental Or designed loss of a package,
need be deprived of his ~prerogative as
a free man, to mark and deposit his
ballot.
Stacked one upon another in a tow
erlike pile, without wrappers, the L.
$4,000 ballots would reach 528 feet
in the air, al altitude loftier thar the
topmost peak of the pyramids and al
most as great as that OF the Washing
ton monument. The ballots are fold
ed in half when placed in the pack
ages prepared for the judges and
clerks. Each package will have 100
ballots in it, and the II, ESQ packages
stacked one Upon another would ex-
tend 1900 feet high.
That does not include about 100,-
600 women's ballots, which must be
printed. For an ~untraveled Chicagoan
to conceive what a sheer height of
1900 feet is like, there being no such
height between the Alleghanies and
the Rockies, he would have to mag
inc what a shaft five times as high as
the Masonic Temple would look like.
Two carloads of paper, weighing in
all forty-two tons, will be needed for
the ballots. If the paper were cut in
one enormous sheet that sheet would
cover an area as large as the down
town district between the river, the
lake and Van Buren, street. The bal
lots laid together lengthwise would ex-
tend a distance of 542 miles, or con-
siderably further than from Chicago to
Kansas City, Memphis or Buffalo. A
strip Of paper wide enough to cover a
railway track and long enough to ex-
tend from Chicago to st. Paul could
be cut from the huge sheet. Something
like 1000 or $500 ballot boxes will be
needed at the LIPS polling places with
in the Chicago election district. Each
ballot box fills about six cubic feet of
space. If stacked in one pile the bal
lot boxes would fill a room forty feet
wide, forty feet long and forty feet
high. AS it is they cannot be put in
any one o but have to be divided
among several floors of a warehouse.
Several barrels of mucilage are re-
quired to seal the various packages
which are delivered duly stamped to

Death. 81
On the brow of a hill in Central
park, opposite West Eighty-fourth
street, stands a. pedestal without a
statue. On it once rested the eques-
trian statue of Gen. Simon Bolivar,
liberator of Colombia. 1t is not likely
that it will ever hold another. AS it
stands now it is a monument to a
sculptor who died of a broken heart.
He was Giovanni Turini, who expired
suddenly n morning in August or
last year in the midst of his labor on
the Dewey arch. The statue of Boil
var was calculated to startle man n
peast, and for that reason, presumably,
IL was almost completely hidden by
foliage. The Venezuelan government
offered to replace it with one of the
same subject that would be more i n
keeping with the surroundings. The
park commissioners accepted the offer
without hesitation. They saw in 1t a
chance to get rid of an Objectionable
monument without giving offense to
its donors, and SO great was their zeal
to do away with the statue that they
did not wait to tear it down until it's
successor was completed. Turin was
selected by Venezuela to make the new
monument. At the same time that
government commissioned him to exc
cute a gigantic statue of Liberty and
bronze memorials to Gen. Paez, all OF
which were to be erected in the CITY OF
Caracas. The sculptor took UP the
work with all the enthusiasm of his,
race. He was an Italian, and he was
sure that both fame and fortune were
now within his grasp. He used up all
his ready money and when that was
gone he mortgaged his house. Finally
the clay model OF the Bolivar statue
was completed, and Turini eagerly
sought the judgment of the commit
tee of the National Sculpture society.
which acted as an advisory body to
the park board in all matters pertain
Ing to public art. To him there could
be but n decision. The visit of the
committee to his studio was simply
a matter of form, he thought, and the
artists who composed it would not
only pass favorable judgment on the
statue, but would congratulate him on
his splendid treatment of the design.
He had chosen as his model the eques-
trlan monument of Bolivar which
Tadolini executed for Caracas. He
sought not originality, being content
to produce a replica of what he con-
sidered a great work of art. But alas!
for all his fine hopes. The committee
studied his model with the character
istically cold precision of the Ameri-
can expert and straightway reported
against it's acceptance by the park
authorities. The members said that
the model failed to- reach the standard
of artistic excellence that it should
have in order to- entit1e it to a place
in any of the public grounds or parks
of the city. This blow crushed the
sculptor. 1t came as a bolt from a.
clear sky Anger succeeded profound
grief. 1T was all a conspiracy to cheat

plus from the weekly earnings, So
Rausch started to carry out an idea
that had come to him.
Last Decoration day a load of pack
ing cases and lumber was placed on
the vacant lot. The next day Rausch
went to the lot. chose a great walnut
tree four feet through, the largest tree
for miles around. and built around il
with his own hands the house in which
his family is now living. The frame.
OF the house is square. No cellar was
dug. and the family does not seem to
need any.

From the lower room the second
floor with its sleeping rooms is reach
ed by a ladder stairway. Here the
climber finds himself actually among
the branches of the tree and on a most
uneven though apparently secure floor.
Beds and all necessary furniture are
slowed away here, and there seems to
be plenty of room for them. A very
convenient closet has been cut out Of
the trunk of the tree and is entered by
a most cleverly contrived door.
The house is. to be sure, not the
stablest of dwellings, for when the
wind blows it rocks and sways like a
hammock, and when it rains the fam
lily has to leave the upper floor and
seek shelter on the ground. Neverthe-
less it is a happy family, and even the
prospect of winter SHOWS and frosts
has not frightened the ~resourceful
Daniel Rausch as yet.
