NEW YoRK's sKYsCRAPERs
Dangers Confronting the Great High
Structures in the Big City.
(From the Brooklyn Eagle.)

In one respect at least it would seem
tnat there is room for Improvement in
New YORK s otherwise admirable system
OF great office buildings. That the build
ings themselves are the finest structures
OF the kind In the world, there can be lit
tie doubt; and that their elevator services
as a general thing are about perfect may
also be admitted. But an effective system
of police protection, either for the proper
ty belonging to the building or that be-
longing to tenants, does not seem to have
developed.
That there is need for such a system is
indicated, first, by the fact that it has
been established in other cities which
have big office buildings; and. secondly,
by the testimony of the agents of some of
the SkyScraperS across the river. In Chi
cago, for example. many of the buildings
employ special detectives whose business
1t is to move about from one floor to an
other and TO keep watch for suspicious
characters These men are not in uni
form and they take care not to advertise
their business; but they are mostly eX-
perienced thieftakers, and they make IT
d1Sagreeable for any man who Is caught
lettering about In Railways if he cannot
give pretty good account of himself. In
cidentally. it is also their business to keep
buildings free of otherwise Objectionable
characters, that is, agents, peddlerS. and
others who are likely to annoy tenants.
No such system exists. so far as can be
determined. in any of the Manhattan Of
flee buildings Occasionally, a special pO-
liceman. in uniform, is retained in case
an officer should be needed to expel a dis
orderly person. or to take into custody

A MARKET FOR STALE BREAD.
Farmers Buy 1t ms Food for Dogs,
pigs, and Chickens.
(From the New York Iribune)

Long Island man who was showing a
friend couple of hunting dogs at his
nlace the other day looked up as he heard
the sound of approaching wheels. Here
the bread man he remarked and as his
friend gazed in surprise at the open cart
laden with bulging sacks, thinking 1t the
straLeest bakers outfit he had yet seen,
fhe owner OF the dogs bought a barrel
of the merchants stuff.
IT'S for the dogs. you know" he eX-
