lola isn't the only village in the
country that has trouble in handling
the mail. Members of Congress are
being addressed by the New York City
board of trade to have steps taken to
relieve the city Office. Last year at
that Office the gross receipts were So
S6S, 6S9.69, the expenses nearly four
millions and the net revenue over six
millions. The increase over 1899 was
over half million dollars. over II
thousand tons of mail matter was
handled during the year and on Janu-
airy /, 1901 there were l, 54l at the gen
eral Office and 2,526 at the branch
offices. That "skins" lola by a
slight margin, but the service is no
prompter for the per capita labor here
is just as strenuous as in New
York.

COMPROMISED SUIT OF $|O|5
Lanyon Zinc Company Settles With
Family of Joseph Woods Who
Lost His Life in the lola
RM Shelter.

a friendly suit which is really a COM
promise was filed Wednesday in the
district court by Ann Woods against
the Lanyon Zinc Company for SlO15,
being damages for the death of herhus-
band which followed fall at the lola
works last November
On Nov. II Mr.. Woods while work.
ing about the machine kilns saw
sprocket chain break and the loose
ends whirled dangerously about the
shaft. To stop the machinery he had
to push "A belt off pulley and to do
this he climbed on a platform some
eight feet above the floor. When he
pushed on the belt with pole it
slipped off suddenly and Mr.. Woods
pitched to the floor below, striking on
his head. He fingered unconscious for
two days and died Nov. is, leaving a
wife 'and six children.
Negotiations began Immediately for
a damage suit, the allegation being
that the company hal not shown due
care in erecting the stand from which
Mr.. Woods fell. The widow could
bring suit and each of the six children
could likewise sue. Asa compromise
and to lump the whole damage claim
into one bill an agreement was reached
whereby the widow sues for all and
the company will settle without fight
ing the case, for $l0l5 and costs.

Prof. Dyche on Hares

Lawrence Journal; The proposition
to cross the Kansas jack rabbit with
the Belgian hare, brought ont the fact
that the animals would not cross.
Professor Dyche says that the despis-
ed jack rabbit is the true hare, and
that the Belgian imitation is nothing
but an overgrown,' cultivated, enerva-
ted, stalled rabbit, full brother to the
plebian cotton tail. The Belgian fell
low and our own cotton tail came In
to the world sightless, hairless and
he pless. 1t is many days before they
got their eyes open, or get enough fur
on to keep them alive when alone.
On the other hand, the gay and lively
jack is born with fur for blizzard,
ears cooked for danger, and legs
ready for race. When he is two
days old he will lead the cur dog q
merry chase, while his cousins, many
times removed, are not able to take
any care of themselves for weeks.
Upon the best of authority, therefore,
the jack may claim precedence, and he
has a right to look down with pity
and contempt upon the big and little
cottontails who have no pedigree save
one, and who have to
rely upon hedges, holes and hollows
to protect them from the ravages even
of cur pups. +, t

PHOENIX SUITS THE DOCTOR

 "I have been in Phoenix for ten years said the doctor, "cacn year be. lieving as a heavy percentage of the residents her do, even thought their entire interests are involved ,n the progress of the city, that l would soon leave Arizona and return to my old home.

It isn't Ft Worth. particularly, but all those towns, extending into Kansas.

TALL. BUILDING A CITY IN ITSELF.

From the historical fact that the ground on which one of Chicagos rep rcsentativc buildings now stands was formerly occupied by such rattie-trap affairs that il was known all over the city as the "Rookery," the building was called "The ROokery" by the capital isl, s who secured the land from the city on the ground rent If nncty-nina years. It is a building which will com pare very favorably with any n the United States. although it is one of the first high office buildings. It is recog
 nized from It's location, history and as sOCiat!HnS as probably the most desira- ble building in Chicago and as 1t can hold only a certain number of people, tenants have to pay probably the high est rent charged by any of the build inCs in the city. CThorc arc 3.20o people in the buildinGD Its cost was about $l, l,SO0000. and from i@s inception 10 the present time il has never paid it's own CTS less than 12 per cent on their invest ment, which makes ii rather a profita- ble one for them There are ten pas scnger elevators or lifts, and one freight elevator, and the check which has been kept upon the number of people riding in them at different times shows that as many as 22,OO0 and 23,000 per day have been carried.
