A NOTED PREACHER

One of the most noted Episcopal
clergymen in the west is Rev. DR.. Clin-
ton Locke, the dean of the church in
Chicago. For Al years he has been as
sociated with Grace church in that
city.
Clinton Locke was born in New York
city in 1929. From the public schools
he went to the academy at Sing Sing
and from the academy he went to
Union college at Schenectady, from
which he was graduated in 1849. Then
he became a private tutor for two
years, after which he entered the gen
eral seminary of the church. In 1856
he was ordained deacon at Dobb's
Ferry. From there he was called to a
Joliet Qll.) church.
In 1859 DR.. Locke was called to
Grace church, then a small parish with
a small building, in Chicago. He
found it struggling congregation,
he gave it all the force and strength
of his character. The church grew un-
der his ministry.
In 1864 Dr. Locke took the initiative
in founding a church hospital. His
congregation was with him, and st.
Luke's was founded in that year, an
Institution that for years has taken a
front place in the hospitals of the big
western city.
In 1895 an affection of the throat de-
velOped, and increased in severity un-
til he was compelled to take leave Of

The newest fashion in New York
sky-scraper construction is to begin at
the top and build downward. 1t seems
impossible, yet that is what con-
tractor is doing with bank building
at Wall and William streets. At pres
snt the upper five floors, with granite
walls, are practically finished. The
over ten are as yet mere skeleton Of
girders and trusses. The larger blocks
of granite for these lower floors
were not ready on time, SO the builder
decided to go ahead on the ones above.
1t is perfectly safe, yet the appear
ance of the structure is so unusual
that it is a curiosity, even for Wall
street.

And words so hard to say, and

The Girl and the Balloon.

The following. which was one of
Mulhattans first, gives some idea of
his life:
There was a man by the name of
John Smith of Lindon, Kan, who be-
came acquainted with a little girl at
the seaside. She was a nice girl, and
her name was Lulu Avery, from AL
bany, n. Y. He bought the little girl
a bunch of toy balloons. She wrap
ped the string holding them about her
waist, and when a strong gust of
wind came the balloons sailed away
and carried her with them, to the hor-
ror of her new friend. An old hunt
er out in the fields saw the predica-
ment of the little girl and fired so
that he exploded two of the balloons
The others acted as a parachute, and
the little girl safely descended to the
ground and thanked her reseuer.

ALEXANDER MAY TESTIFY.
Crowds Attending the Murder Trial
Increasing Daily.

The interest in the trial of William NJ.
Alexander, who is charged with the muir
der of Matthew Snow, increases as the
proceedings draw to a close. The at
tendance was much greater yesterday
than at any other previous time since the
taking of the testimony begun Within
an hour after the court convened District
Attorney Anderson announced that he
would not offer any further direct evil
dence, and the taking of testimony on be-
half of the defence was commenced.
The first witness called on behalf of the
accused was John Miller, stenogEapher,
who took the testimony submitted at the
Coroner's inquest. The witness was
called for the purpose Of contradicting
the statements made by several of the
witnesses who testified on behalf of the
prosecution. Mr.. Miller stated that he
had NO recollection OF what any OF the
witnesses who testified before the Coroner
said, his only guide in this matter being
his stenographic notes. Because the wit
ness had no distinct recollection of what
testimony was given before the Coroner
irrespective of his notes the Government
objected to his testifying. The Jury was
asked TO leave the box. and argument on
the admissibility of the testimony was
heard by Justice Clabaugh. who ruled
that the witness was competent to testify
At the morning session several wit
nesses who had already given testimony
were recalled to testify as TO whether or
not Alexander was sober on the night
which he assaulted Snow. They stated
that while IT was evident that the defend
ant had been drinking he was not drunk
The defendant will probably be called
to testify in his own behalf today about
noon, and at the conclusion Of his evil
dence the Government will offer some
testimony in rebuttal. The case, however,
will in all probability not be submitted
to the jury before Saturday morning.
