A DANGEROUS JOKE.
Rfhe Cartridge Placed on q Car TracL
In q Crowded Street

Rfhe Cartridge Placed on a Car Track
In a Crowded Street.
A few minutes after 10 o'clock this
morning as a northbound car on the
9th street line. hauling mail car,
was about to stop before cross
Ing Pennsylvania avenue, a loud report
sounded from the tracks and a pun OF
white smoke appeared. The by-standers
and passengers In the car concluded that
the disturbance was caused by some de-
rangement Of the electrical apparatus. But
the motorman Immediately found that his
current was undisturbed, and an investiea-
ton followed, with the corner policeman
leading. The car was moved of and on
one OF the rails was found the fattened
shell OF rifle cartridge, apparently of an
obsolete pattern. about 80 caliber The
shell had been torn In two pieces by the
force Of the explosion. There was no sign
OF the ball, nor was there anything to in
dicate whether the shell had contained one
or had been blank. The fragments were
taken by the policeman. who remarked that
the cartridge had evidently been placed on
the track by some miscreant for a Joke
The dangerous character Of the prank be-
came apparent when 1t was realized that
the ball from the cartridge, presumtng it
had one originally. might havetstruck any
nearby person. possibly causing death.
search for the perpetrator Of the reckl ess
bit OF humor was obviously hopeless. but
expressions OF indignation were uttered by
members OF the large crowd which was at
tracted by the unusual report.

Plans For New Building Now
in Hands of North Western
Officials for Approval,

N. Il. Updike, President of the Up
dixie Grain Company of Omaha, Neb.,
arrived in the city this morning for a
conference with a party of North
| Western Officials regarding the new
elevator which the Updike concern
will build in this city. Upon his ar
rival this morning Mr.. Updike pro-
ceeded direct to the private car oc-
cupied by the North Western official
party and considerable time was spent
i'm considering the plans and speciica-
tions for the new building and also
the consideration of the track and adj
ditionsl yard facilities in the vicinity
OF the elevator necessary for the hand
ling of.the enormous amount of grain
which will pass to and fro from the
elevator to the North Western yards.
During conversation this morning
Mr.. Updike stated lis company was
we'll pleased with the cordial manner
IN which the citizens of Missouri Val
ley received the company's proposals.
The general plans for the elevator,
trackage facilities, etc, are now in
possession of the higher officials of the
North Western company and immed-
lately upon the receipt of a favorable
report from the railroad comnany the
updike concern will put a force of
men at work stalking off the ground
for the elevator While the matter
will now be rushed with all expedition
possible it will he at least six weeks
before work on the building proper
will be commenced but in all probabi-
lty the railroad company will com
mence the construction of the addi-
tional yards, etc, for the private use
of the elevator within the next few
days. The elevator which when com.
pleted will be the largest building of
its nature in this section of the coun-
try, will serve double purpose; that
of a storage place for the thousands of
tushels of grain the company buys at
its numerous smaller elevators along
the line of the S. c. & p. and the f.,
e. & M. V. in Nebraska. Besides this
the elevator will be equipped with ma
chinery for cleaning the grain before
it is shipped to the city markets. The
plans now under consideration show
the building to be rather an ex-
tensive concern. The elevator build
ing proper will be about 300 feet long,
between 40 and 80 feet wide, and from
the foundation to the shingles on the
highest portion of the building the
structure will measure nearly 100 feet,
or almost twice as high as the Miller
hotel. Wood sheeted with corrugated
iron will be used principally in the con-
struction of the building. When fin
ished the elevator will have facilities
for handling 100 car loads of grain
daily. The storage capacity will be
over 100000 bushels. The company
expects to have the machinery of the
new concern in operation by Sept. LIST.

Jupiter Warmer Than the Farm

Jupiter Warmer Than the Earth.
The gigantic mass of Jupiter has q
much larger warmth than that of the
earth. 1t is the result of the molecular
movement produced by the compress
sion of the strata and must be greater
the more powerful the masses, and
hence the larger the pressure Of the
strata is. Jupiter SURPRISES the earth
in point of mass 307 times, and for this
reason the inner temperature or indi-
vidual warmth of the planet is proba-
bly, high enough to evaporate the water
upon the surface quickly, SO that water
vapor forms the principal substance Of
the atmosphere Of Jupiter. Water va
por is an excellent reflector and readily
accounts for the bright radiation OF
light emitted by the planet.-Professor
Hughes in Chicago Tribune.
