Purse of SI25 by HIS Friends.
Capt Manville A. Austin. who was re-
Gently retired after having served as a
member Of the police department for more
than thirty years, was presented with a
purse OF $l25 in gold this morning The

In making the presentation speech Major
sylvester referred to the long and faithful
service of Capt. Austion. and said his
many friends were glad that the law was
such that he was enabled to retire upon a
pension OF more than few dollars. 1t

TO use the gift In the near future. but that
matter rested wholly with himself
In accepting the testimonial Capt Austin

orance, and said he was sorry he had been
compelled to sever his connection with the

OPENING OF QUINCY STREET.
Act of Congress Will Be Necessary for
the Purpose.

Act of Congress Will BE Necessary for
the Purpose.
Engineer Commissioner Beach has an
proved the report of Assistant Engineer
Richards regarding the opening OF Quincy
street. This matter was called to the at
tention of the District Commissioners by a
letter from George M. Kober, secretary OF
the Washington Sanitary Improvement
Company. Mr.. Kober requests that Quincy
street northeast. across the lands Of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company, be
extended distance Of about half a square,
Ito allow the children Of tenants Of houses
now being erected to attend the lexington
school,
Engineer Richards reports that the Dis
trict has no claim to the land necessary
for this extension. Although condemna-
ton proceedings were instituted several
years ago for the opening, no report of the
jury of condemnation was ever made, nor
has the railroad company ever consented
to any right Of way. Mr.. Richards esti-
mates that the extension would cost about
5000 for land alone, and he knows of no
way to open the street except through act
of Congress-.

On the following Thursday there was a

Consistently Keeping Everlasting at
1t Yields Sure Returns.
That continuous, persistent, intelligent
advertising pays cannot be denied. AS
an evidence Of this fact a local incident
of recent occurrence amply proves. A
shoe dealer in Chene-Bourg, Switzerland,
wrote Stacy, Adams & Co., of this city,
asking for q catalogue and price list OF
their goods. In addressing tho envelope
the Swiss merchant made sure it would
reach it's destination by writing thereon
"Brockton Douglas, Mass, u. S. A"
The request for catalogue came under
the notice of o. B. Quimby, Of Stacy,
Adams & Co., who sent this letter to Mr..
Douglas.
w. I. Douglas, Brockton, Mass.
Dear Mr. Douglas-The enclosed seems
to be quite a curiosity in it's way, and it
may be of some interest to you. 1t
came to US with a request for catalogue
and price list of our goods.
1t would seem by the address that
"Brockton' and Douglas are so close
ly identified with each other in the
minds of some people, that they find it
necessary to use both names in address
ing their envelopes, and that the fame
of both has reached into far-off coun
tries, and even a remote, small town like
Chene Bourg. Switzerland.
Yours very truly,
o. B. Quimby.

Tower of Continuous Prayer.
Prayer is common to all religious sects,
but it remains for Topeka to house a
new band of enthusiasts who. in q tower
known as the Tower of Prayer" con-
tinualy offer up petitions. These enthU-
siasts have founded what is known as
tho Bethel Gospel school and, as may De
imagined, practice unique kind of re-
ligiOn says the Toledo Bee.
There are forty students In the school.
They pray for what they get and get
what they pray for. They do no work,
yet they have plenty to eat and wear.
They say the Lord provides. The school
was established last September, and since
that time only one student has quit.
The school is conducted in an edihce
known as Stones Folly" The house
cost $4,000. 1t is built on the order OF
an old feudal castle, three full stories,
with thirty rooms. The drawing room is
used by the students for chapel It IS
the tower which commands a fine view
of the city and surrounding country that
is known as the praying tower. Prayer
in this tower is continuous night and day,
the students relieving each other.

training in cold weather. 1t braces
a chap up. A fellow can work and
never get tired. The clear air gives
one strength, and, no matter what
exercise he takes. he Is still strong at
the finish. In my opinion training In
summer, especially on very hot days,
is dangerous. A man can do himself
much harm in taking road work when
the. sun is streaming down on his
head. had an experience with sum
mer training that almost put me out
of business. It was just before my
go with Fitzsimmons. / was out on
the road when | was effected by the
heat. and had to be taken back to
my training quarters in a carriage.
I'm after the championship, and, In
my opinion, there Is only one thing
between me and the title, and that is
good form. ] intend to take things
easy for while, and the last three
weeks | will do my hard work. When
man is training during the clear
and crisp weather that we have In
winter he can keep his blood in better
circulation than at any other time.
And the quick circulation Of the blood
does more to put man in good shape
for fight than anything else. Then,
again, you feel like working in winter,
when the air Is cool and bracing. II
Is pleasure to get up warm and
healthy glow all over the body. We
big fellows don't have to reduce our
weight like the boxers in other classes
and so the getting up of perspiration
is not necessary. In summer a man
when on the road perspires freely
and 1t a good thing when weight has
