Invention of n CbicagOnn to Shut
out Noises Night and Day.

From the Chicago Tribune.

pIication of a novel invention 10 his res
dence as a protection 20 himself and his
family against the street dins that per-
sist, in violation of the anu-noise ordi-

The doctor has thrown his house open
for inspection. suggesting that many PEG

intolerable noises might remain where
they are by emulatng his plan.
The apparatus which admits air into
the Doctors house but which. he says,
excludes noises, is an invention of his

find means to procure quiet in his home.
The plan, as described by DR.. Jones, is
merely the stuffing up of all cracks and
apertures in me house which might admit
sound with material so constructed as
10 afford access of air while shutting Qua
noise The material which DR.. Jones says
discriminates between noise and air is in
the form of stripe of rubber perforated
with zg-zag holes. Through this the air
is admitted while the noise, II is said, Is
softened or completely deadened, the
sound waves dying QUE in repeated refec-
tions in the crooked passages. These
strips of rubber DR.. Jones has placed
over all cracks around the doors and win
dows of his house, and two months ex-
perience with the plan has convinced him,
he says, of It's practicabiity.

How the Germs Are Nurtured and the
Disease Is Spread.
1t would seem that people win never
learn to be careful. The recent alarm
ing spread of that dire epidemic, small
pox, throughout different sections Of
the country has been traced by physi-
clans and sanitarians in many instances
directly to the moldy and rotting layers
OF paper and paste which cover the
walls of many houses. The practice of
laying layer after layer of paper on a
wall, using common -four paste, is espe-
cially calculated to create homes for
disease germs. People could not do
Kore to effect such a result ii they
tried. The rotting vegetable matter
affords caves from which are ready to
dart forth the infection at every oppor-
tunity. There is no excuse for this
practice, as walls and ceilings can be
coated with a pure, cleanly and sani-
tary material like Alabastine, for in
stance, at no greater expense. AlabaS-
tine is rock-base cement. which in
corporates itself with the wall or cell
ing. 1t is easily applied, comes ready
TO mix with cold water, requires no
washing or scraping before renewing
or letinting, is beautiful, long-iasting
and safe.
For walls that have been infected.
nothing is equal to Alabastine as
disinfectant to render them pure and
clean and the rooms once more habit

Men have made queer wagers in the
past and present. One man afflicted
with the gambling spirit was Mark
Sykes. He offered to pay any one a
guinea day for each day Napoleon
lived, provided the taker would pay
100 guineas down. A clergy man ac-
cepted the offer aud made fine profit,
as Napoleon lived three years.
A nobleman of England made wa
ger of $500 100 years ago that a man
could live twelve hours under water.
A man who was reckless of life offered
TO so down and was sunk in an old
ship. Neither the man nor the ship
was recovered.
Sir John Slade, a very small man,
bet $4,000 that he could carry a friend
who weighed about five times as much

The day came and a large assembly

He has been in office almost steadily for
the last thirty years, his highest post pre-

that of governor general of India from
1883 TO 1893. Previols to that he was

WIPED OUT BY FIRE.
Historical Theater Francois at Paris Is
WHOLLY DESTROYED.


Wholly Destroyed.
The Theater Francais, in Paris, has
been destroyed by fire, in which Mile.
Henriot lost her life and seven firemen
were injured. The fire originated in the
foyer of the theater. At 1870 o'clock
p. m. Thursday a huge column of fame
burst forth, and in short time the
whole building was cnveloped in fire and
smoke. Shortly afterward the historical
playhouse of Paris and the home of the
world-famed Coincide FRANCHISE was a
mass of ruins. The burning of the the
alter will come as a loss to lovers of the
art of Corneille, Racine, Moliere and
Shakespeare. while to visitors to the expo
sition one of the notable sights" of Paris
will be missing.
The Theater Francais was founded in
1000, but the edifice which was destroyed
by fire Thursday dates back only to
1882, though its facades ON the Rue st.
Honore and the Place were renewed in
recent years. The famous playhouse had
also recently undergone renovation in
view of the crowds expected during the
exposition, which is to open Easter Sun
day. Happily the fire broke out an hour
or so before the matinee performance of
Dumas fils' drama, diane de Lys," or
the theater might have witnessed at its
close the greatest tragedy of its his
tory.
But little seems to have been saved of
the many artistic treasures and dramatic
memorials of this temple of tragedy. The
famous statue of Voltaire by Houdon
may have been saved intact, but for the
most part the ornaments of this historic
theater persisted with the building itself.
