NOTES FROM EUROPE

There is clock in Brussels which
has never been wound up by human
hands. 1t is kept going by the wind.
A confederation of hotel proprietors
in Italy have sent a petition to tht
government asking for better protec
ton and encouragement OF foreign
travellers in the kingdom.
Switzerland now has about 60 maca
roni and noodle factories, which sup
ply the whole demand of the country
although the Swiss come next to the
Italians as macaroni eaters.
In Russia it is not considered gooo
form for a girl to dance whole waltz
or polka with one partner. Three or
four men dance round or two each
with the same lady, returning her tc
her original partner at the end of the
dance.
In Coburg-Gotha there are 5,455 chill

Another Big Irritation Scheme.

1t is said that 5000 acres OF railroad
land lying along the Columbia river,
opposite White Bluffs, have been sold to
syndicate represented bye. B. Waring,
an Eastern capitalist, and G. b. Liver
more, prominent citizen OF Seattle
The land is about forty miles from North
Yakima, and Mr.. Livermore, with en-
gineers, has made several surveys of the
district during the past year. An at
tempt will soon be made to secure artesian
water, and if the first well is success a
a system OF them will be bored. Should
the artesian plans fail the projectors
will fall back upon scheme to raise the
water from the river by means OF pumps
or wheels. Messrs. Waring and Liver
more will soon be in Yakima to figure
with local well-borers regarding the
Inauguration of the work.

cIe.Elum Woman Kicked to Death.

The deputy sheriff at Cle-Elum got
into row with some Dagos on Thurs
day of last week, says the Ellensburg
Localizer, which had very serious end
ing. 1t appears that some Dagoes got
in to a drunken quarrel and when the
officer went to quiet the trouble, the
wife of one Of the disturbers made an
attack on him with large knife. In
self defense, he kicked at her, striking
her on the stomach, causing her death
almost instantly, she being in cricti-
cal condition.

BRUIN TAKES A RIDE.
Fer = Distance of Ten Miles He Hung
On to the Cowcatcher and Then
Trotted on Contentedly.

Not long ago train was passing
through Wilder's Cut, near Olcut Run,
Pa. The speed of the engine was not
more than 20 miles an hour. Coming
around the curve the engineer was sur
prised to see big black bear on the
track.
Unfortunately for the bear the cut
is so narrow there was hardly room for
the train and his bruinship. AS the
train approached the bear-as a bear
will do when cornered-raised up on his
launches and showed fight. The engi-
neer put on an extra pressure. The cow
catcher slid under the hind legs of the
bear and caught him fast. He leaned
over and clutched the wood of the cow
catcher and hung on for dear life.
The engineer and the fireman were
wondering where was the bear. To sat
isfy his curiosity the fireman walked
along the guard rail to see if they were
in possession of bear without a bill
of lading to show his destination. He
was there, and scared, if bear can be
scared. His body barely, no pun, es-
capped rubbing the ground, and his head
was just under the headlight.
He knew his business, and fully real
lied that to let 60 was to be hurled to
bear-kingdom come. So he stayed with
the engine.
Visions of bear meat and bear robes
foated through the minds Of the
knights of the engine. The next sta
ton was ten miles distant, and it was
doubtful if old Bruin could stand the
strain. But he did. and when the train
pulled in the station agent was sur
prised to see so much bear, and real
live bear at that. He was to be more
surprised in a minute, for when the
train pulled up Mr.. Bear made spring
for the platform and got there. Then
he had grudge against the station
agent and made for him, but he missed
him.
Evidently he thought it good time
to escape from the engine, which was
snorting in a mad way. So he turned
to the hill and made for the woods in a
hasty and self-satisfied way without
even paying his fare.

A bill was introduced in the House of
Representatives which provides for an
increase in the salary of the vice
president from 5000 to $25, 000 and for
advancing the salaries of members of
the cabinet from $1,000 to $4,000. The
argument advanced is the social de-
mands upon the holders of the offices
making it incompatible with the dignity
OF the government that it should demand
such sacrifices from any one. The
British salary list is given as strength
ening the argument by comparison.

NEW BUILDINGS AT BROW n
-FOUR HANDSOME STRUCTURES FOR THE
USE OF THE UNIVERSITY.

Providence r. l., Oct. 24.-The aumnus who
comes back to Brown University on a visit is
greeted by the sight of several edifices this
fall There is the new home of the president,
the new administration building, the pri-
vate dormitory BrunOna Hall, and the
memorial gateway at the head of College Hill.
As the Brown alumnus nears the top of the hill
which leads to the seat of learning in Provi-
dence he sees before him, instead of the old
wooden gateway which he wont to pass
through in his undergraduate days, a and
elaborate structure rising high with its massive
pillars Of brick and Indiana limestone and its
three great iron gates imposing portal to
the college grounds.
This gateway. which forms the main
trance to the front campus, is known as the
Van Wickle Memorial Gateway, and was erect
ed last spring. with fund provided for that
purpose by a bequest of the late 4. s. Van
Wickle. Brown alumnus. The structure con-
sists of large double gate between two tall
brick pillars, on either side Of which is another
but smaller gate of similar pattern and beyond
these gates are other pillars somewhat lower
and supporting brick wall surmounted by a
sandstone cap. The two main pillars the
right and the left of the main gate bear re-
spectivey the coat Of arms of the State of Rhode
Island and the city Of Providence. scuptured in
sandstone while over the central gate the seal
of Brown University appears in colored enamel.
The gates situated eight or ten feet back
from the sidewalk, and either side is a stone
bench. These seats by vote of the students
have been made sacred to the of seniors
and graduates.
The bequest of Mr.. Van Wickle also provided
for the erection of an administration building.

4 NEW CONBINlTION.
AN UNUSUAL MAN-OF-ALI.-WORK ESTAB-
LISHMENT OF THE UPPER WEST SIDE.


Ever since the upper West Side began to build
up with residences and apartment houses there
has been lack OF stores, markets and small
shops Of all kinds. With the return OF the
householders from the country this autumn
came the general utility establishment which is
in a certain sense a trust 1t is certainly COM
bination. not of the men in the same line of
business for the purpose of keeping up prices
but of many lines under one head.
one of the most comprehensive West Side
trusts has its headquarters in a little white
washed shanty near West Ninety-ffrst-st. and
Broadway The most conspicuous sign on the
front Of the shanty tells the public that it is
"Bootblack Parlor." Another conveys the in
formation that the propretors newsdealers
who deliver papers at their customers homes
Still another reads: Furnaces Attended To-"
So much for the signs They do begin TO
tell all OF the duties which the trust is ready

WATCH AND WAIT.

The attempt to start a candidate for
the presidency by kicking democrats
would be amusing if it was not a
rous. Of course the object is to slaugh-
ter Mr.. Bryan. Texas invited Hill and
Bryan to speak in that state. Now the
old enemies of Bryan r blowing that
it was a boom for Hill for the presi-
dency four years hence, n the invi-
tation to Bryan was merely added to
ever his friends from getting mad.
Mr.. Hill is too shrewd a politician 10
be m~anoeuvring this early for a nomi-
nation in 1904. He knows om expert
ence how eth best laid plans often
disappoint the p%Ianner. Hill is a strong
man intellectually and politically. He
voted for Bryan twice-in 1896 and III
1900. That is more than the plotters
conspirators against Bryan did.
1t is too 500 to be moving in this
matter. The people at home-the real
democrats are thinking of other mat
ters now and of far more pressing i'm
portance and interest. We do not be-
lieve that Mr.. Bryan will be nominated
in 1904, # ever again. 1t is not at all
Sure that Hill will be nominated SO
let democrats watch and wait.
Watterson fought Bryan in 1896, but
supported him last year. He is in Sa-
vannah and talks of course. He thinks
there will be a new leader for the DEM
ocrats, and he is not probably now
known. He wisely avoided "a direct
question if it. would be Hill. He said:
-Four years is a political genera
tion,' he said. The times and the par
ty take care OF themselves
"Do you think David B. Hill, of
New York, will be a formidable candi-
date?'
You had as we'll ask me what the
weather conditions Will be when the
ext democratic national convention
meets. In my opinion, however, the
hope of the party lies in the coming
out of a new leader from one of the
strong northern states-New York,
Ohio or Indiana. 1 think, too, that he
will be a man now comparatively un-
KNOWN
