CARNEGIE TO BUILD SPITE WALL.
1t Will Be Fifty Feet High and Very
Costly.


The New York World Of today says:
Andrew Carnegie is to erect spite WALL
that will cost half million dollars. Its
like is not to be found in America, prob
ably not In the whole world.
1t will separate his 9th avenue palace
and grounds from the Madison avenue
houses at the rear and thus he solves the
vexed problem Of neighbors.
From Mr.. Carnegie's windows and gar
dens the spite wall will be q marble pile
Of art beautiful to look upon, its white
expanse rich with the highest skill Of the
sculptor. What its aspect will be from the
other side Is another matter. 1t Is hardly
likely that 1t will show a carved surface to
the buildings that it shuts off effectually
from a view of the Carnegie demesne.
When Mr.. Carnegie settled upon a man.
sion In 9th avenue, with grounds extend
ing from Goth to 91st streets. his design
was to buy the entire block, including the
Madison avenue frontage. But the Madi-
son avenue property owners put their prices
up to prohibitive figures, SO the steel king
was driven to other plans. These culminat-
ed in the spite wall, for which Instructions
were given yesterday to his architects
Babb, Cook & Willard.
Expense was no object.
Ornamental marbles will be the fabrics
rising to a height of forty-fve or fifty
feet and fashioned after the general idea of
the Ulazza del Tereador in Madrid.
Bas reliefs and sculptures will be carved
on its facades by artists whose genius is Of
universal fame.
Plans for the west and north facades
have already been submitted to Mr.. Carne-
gle in preliminary sketches, and those who
have been fortunate enough to see them de-
clare they are Of wonderful classic beauty.
Originally the intention was to have car
riage houses and automobile quarters at a
corner Of the grounds. But there they
would have hidden from the masion a sec
ton Of the magnificent spite WALL with its
art carvings, so sculptors and architects
were agreed that they should be placed
elsewhere.

Settler Put Out Her Hair.
From the Chicago Inter Ocean.


A cigar lighter settler bottle. a girl with
a head Of blond hair and a drug clerk made
matters lively in an Evanston drug store
yesterday afternoon. Miss June Whitfield, q
"co-ed" in the Northwestern University,
went into wicke's drug store on Davis
street and leaned against the cigar case
Behind her was a gas flame cigar lighter.
Miss Whitfield wears long coiffure and
this came in contact with the fame VIM.
Hamilton. the drug clerk, says that he
ing the next sixty seconds. but q young
man who was in the store at the time says
Hamilton is hero.
When Miss Whitfield discovered that her
hat from her head and started to run for
the door, Hamilton ran from behind the
counter, seized her and tried to put out the
blaze with his hands, but that was more
painful than effective. Soon most Of the
iuxuriant locks were ruined and the clerk
saw that something n1ust be done to save
the girl from being severely burned He
Jumped upon the counter In front OF the
soda fountain and, reached for settler
bottle. Running to, the girl he pressed the
lever and turned the stream into the flames.
The young woman screamed and ran, hut
Hamilton followed her and played the
stream into the locks. The blaze was soon
extinguished, but the clerk kept the nozzle
mans head. She continued screaming and
lodging. First the stream would strike her
In the eyes and then In the ear. When the
bottle was drained Hamilton caught his
breath and asked Miss Whitfield II she was
badly burned.
The blond locks. which have excited the
envy OF all the young women in the North
western, were ruined, but beyond this the
young woman was not hurt. She. lamented
the loss of her hair, however. and left the
store crying,

dispatch to the New York Sun from
Boston says: Frederick Kensel of 81 Mea-
cham street, Somerville. is another victim
Of the hazing practices at West Point He
| recently resigned his cadetship at the Mill
tary Academy and returned home, failing
eyesight being assigned as the cause. He
entered West Point on June 13 last. Very
early in July he was In the hospital on ac-
count Of trouble with his eyes, 1t was not
the season of study at West Point and he
never had had difficulty with his eyes
prior to entering the academy.
What happened was that while standing
on his head in q tent. which was demanded
of "plebes" whenever an upper classman
entered, Kensel was kicked in the right
eye, possibly accidentally, by an upper
classman and was sent to the hospital. He
left the hospital in few days and while
attempting to swallow teaspoonful of ia
basco sauce he choked and it went over his
handkerchief afterward and that sauce got
into his eyes. He had to 60 back again to
the hs6ital on account OF trouble with his
About August ~ Kensel was taken OF,
the sick list. His eyes had so far recovered
that he could resume his duties. Three
days afterward he was again in the hos
pital, as the report shows. with stomach
trouble" During these three days he had
to eat a great quantity of rice, a couple of
boiled cabbages, some sixty-three prunes
and was compelled to do $50 eagles, and
went into commissions. A pillow or blanket
was placed over his face 10 that his cries
could not be heard.
AS result 1t is believed beyond aues-
ton the physical condition Of Kensel has
been much impaired. On account Of this
injury and the trouble with his eyes, which
caused an operation. he was never again
able really to do work at the academy and
had to resign.
Kensel was appointed by Representative
Mccall on June 10. 1890. He was born in
South Carolina October 4. 1877, and Is the
son OF the late Colonel Kensel. an old army
