The End of the Town.

There was nothing about MIN to indi-
cate the crank. He was neatly but
not fashionably dressed, and his good
natured countenance was of corpulent
order, says the New York Mail and Ex-
press. He glanced refectively out Of
the rear window of Third avenue car
at the tall buildings along Park Row
and Broadway, and for a moment look
ed serious.
''Too much weight" he said to a fell
low passenger beside him, nodding his
head in the direction of the buildings.
''Too much weight entirely. People
don't seem to realize that the lower
portion Of this city is only crust of
rock, with water Of great depth be-
meath it. They keep putting up build
ing after building Of great height and
weight, and some day there's going to
be the greatest catastrophe of the ages.
The whole blooming lower part of the
city, or good portion of it, will cave
in under the enormous strain put upon
it by these sky-scrapers, and the loss
of life and property will be incalcula-
BILE.
Just think Of the weight that crust
has to sustain. Millions Of tons of iron
arriving here every year to be used for
Orders and rafters. Millions of tons
of brick and mortar are used in con-
structing the buildings, to say nothing
of the marble, granite and other kinds
of stone, and all piled upon that frail
crust Of rock, which must give way
some day under the strain.
''Then, there's the bridge, too. 1t
can't last forever. Some day it is 60
ing to break down under the additional
strain put upon it by the trolley and
steam cars now running to Brooklyn.
Imagine the scene at a rush hour some
night; trolley cars on both sides laden
with people; the promenade crowded
and trucks in steady stream. Sud-
denly one of the cables gives way. The
other, unable to stand the strain alone,
also parts, and people. cars and trucks
are dumped into the river like a shovel
Of coal into a bucket. Oh, it's bound
to come, 1 tell you"

Why Dinah Wept.

Not long ago lieutenant in the navy
was ordered away on a three years
cruise. The order had been dreaded for
weeks, and when 1t came the young
wife, who was to be left in a Brooklyn
fiat with baby and colored servant,
was in despair.
She controlled her sorrow very well,
however, until the actual moment of
parting came, and then she wept as
though her heart would break, says the
New York Herald. The cruiser was to
leave the navy yard early next morn
ing, and the lieutenant had gone to re-
port for duty.
In the midst of her lamentations the
young wife heard a shifting and sob
bling in the dining-room, and upon
glancing through the door she saw
Dinah, the colored maid, rocking her
body to and fro in chair and weeping
violently.
"Why, D-D-Dinah, what's the m-mat-
ter?" cried the mistress. you seem 10
t-t-take Mr.. Blanks departure as much
to heart as 1 do

A Book Hunters Worry.

The worry Of finding that book is
incomplete is often to be expected.
Often most respectable looking books
have a page missing somewhere. One
cannot trust even a folio that has been
connected with religious houses all its
life 1t may be invincibly bound in the
strongest calf; it may have passed all
its quiet, unread days behind glass and
be as clean as on the day on which it
was issued, and yet page 341 may have
vanished.
We once knew a man who had firm
belief in the devil and for this reason:
He said that he could hardly count the
imperfect books by which he had been
misled in his time, and in nearly every
case these books had a highly respect
able past. They had grown mellow in
monasteries or had been carefully tend
ed in great libraries, where they were
never touched except to be busted. 1t
seemed morally impossible that harm
could have come to these books, and
yet each one had page missing some
where. Therefore he was reluctantly
forced to the conclusion that the devil
was in it. He supposed that when the
devil was in need of more quotations
he distracted a page from some little
read book, choosing it both in order
that he might obtain reputation for
wisdom and also that he might not be
found out.
We do not uphold this theory, but we
do recommend the book hunter, so far

a constitutional disease, requires a

A Feat In Shooting.

give seen a good deal of sharpshOoting
in my day." said a civil war veteran of
Broome county, "but I've never seen
equaled a feat performed often by a
neighbor of mine. He was a man with
a marvelously quick eye, and he could
shoot quicker and straighter than any
man in our neighborhood. His best trick
was shooting two swallows with one
bullet. He would make bets on this, and
when feeling right would win the money
nine times out of ten. 1t is hard enough
to shoot one swallow on the wing, and
to shoot two of them with one bullet in
creases the difficulty tenfold. He would
stand by the side of the pond, and when
two swallows crossed each others aerial
paths he would shoot just as they would
intersect. He seldom missed killing them
the first shot, and when he did miss he
paid up like major. Usually the other
fellow was stuck, though. New York

squint at the lock, marking a place
where he can cut off a trifie of the iron
so that the key that belongs to it won't
work, and then altering the key so that
1t will fit the revised lock.
"For this the charge is very slight.
There is only few minutes work to
the job, and a locksmith hasn't the
heart to make an overcharge, you know.
Now, this is much cheaper than having
the old lock taken off and new one
put on, for then new keys would have
to be made, and good keys cost consid-
cradle, you know. By simply scraping
piece off the lock at a certain point
and scraping a corresponding piece off
the key, the 'fatter' gets practically a
new protection, and the janitor doesn't
stand a chance of paying him a visit
without ringing the bell and being regu-
larly admitted"
