A WiDE-AWAKE AND HAND
SOME PAPER.

The New York Tribune mas produced
in its daily edition newspaper which
is certainly attracting the attention of
intelligent readers far and wide.
Within the past 10 or Is years pictures
have gained a large place among the
contents of many newspapers. In
some cases they are inserted merely to
amuse. The Tribune employs pictures
in a sound and sensible (althouph
most enteltaining) way, as Legitimacy
illustrations of the news, by means
OF which it gives vivid idea of many
things which could not be described
in words The Tribune also prints
spirited cartoons many OF which are
capital hits on politics and politicians.
We doubt if there is better or hand
somer general news and family paper
in the United States than the New
York TT bune. and it is of interest to
remark that that newspaper has i'm
creased its cirC ulation within the past
year. The Tiibune has consistent
record as the Particular champion of
thriving 10 ne industries, settlement
Of the public lands and protection to
American business interests, and is
always an interesting. and readable
No printed matter Of
any kind can ba taken into the family,

HIS PERSISTENCE WON OUT.
4 Chicago Policeman Builds House
OF Bricks Picked Up In the
Streets,

r = + .
In the northwestern part of Chicago
there is q neat little cottage; in it
lives Chicago policeman, When it is
known how the. policeman secured the
bricks for the foundation of his cozy
home it will be understood that he
has the patience of Job and uncom-
mon perseverance, says the Chronicle.
In the. first place, the foundation
bricks represent no money outlay.
All they cost was effort. When the
officer made up his mind to build a
house for liza small family heconceived
the idea of picking up stray bricks
on the street and taking them home.
Every day of his life he kept a look
out for bricks that fell from passing
wagons. Not night passed but he
took home a, sackful of bricks. Some
times only two or three; occasionally
ten or a dozen would represent his
labor of q day. Oftentimes when at
leisure he, visited railroad yards and
there always found rich field and
increased the rapidly growing pile.
His strange idea became Joke among
his associates many months before
the house was built. He is often
spoken OF to-day as "the policeman
who bought a brick house q brick at q
time. 3 5ss5 Isl

GERMANS IN UNITED STATES.
Milwaukee Has the Largest Teutonic
Population OF Any City In
This Country. Il

Milwaukee, famous for it's beer, may
now claim distinction as being the
"German city" Of the United States.
There are more>G Germans in Milwaukee
in proportion to it's population than
in any other city, says the Chicago
Chronicle. The percentage of popula-
ton is &C and Hoboken is a close sec
ond, with 81 per cent. New York has
only 80 per cent. and Chicago 81 per
cent. Boston is at the bottom of the
hist, with a German population of only
seven per cent of the total. Detroit,
Buffalo, Cleveland, Newark, Cincinnati
and Jersey City have larger percent
ages OF Germans in their populations
than either New York or Chicago.
/ Among the states, Wisconsin leads
in proportion of residents born in Ger.
many. It is estimated that 2sS, 900 ma
tiveaborn Germans are now located
there, or II per cent. Of the total popu-
lation. New York. however, has the
largest number of native-born Ger
mans 900, but this is only nine per
cent OF the population Illinois has
$4,000, or ten per cent. Minnesota,
with 12e, 900, is equal to Illinois in per-
centage. Iowa has $4,000 Germans,
but percentage Of only eight, while
Massachusetts stands about at the
bottom of the list, with 1000 Germans
and percentage of one. The United
States are credited altogether with
2,993,000 German-born residents,
