One of the greatest trials n visitor In
Finland has to endure Is II Finnish
bath. The method of procedure Is
unique. Divested of outer clothing and
attlred In light and airy cotton gar
ment, you are slung In sort of ham
mock composed of cord above n large
receptacle like the boilers In public
laundrlcs. This is almost filled with
cold water. into which ut the right mo-
ment Is flung large redhot brick or
piece of iron, which of course causes
an overwhelming rush of steam to as
ccnd and almost choke you. Then
when that process has gone on sufll-
clcntly long you are shaken out OF your
hammock, immersed In cold water. and
after very drastic treatment you re-
sumo your ralment, sadder and wiser
than before your novel experience.

JEALOUSY AND PRIDE.
Through one Writer'S spectncfcs
These Two Appear ns virtues.

These Two Appear ns Virtues.
There Is little jealousy in all per.
sons and especially In all women It
springs from deep love, which always
desires to be first In the affection of
the one beloved. A lover. whether man
or maid, who is not susceptible TO occa-
sional twnges of jealousy Is not truly
In love.
While jealousy, considered with ref
trence TO It's origin. Is not an ignoble
emotion. II Is frequently absurd I'm its
outbreaks. A father is sometimes up
set with jealousy because he imaglnes
that his wife loves the children more
than she loves him. Mothers are fire.
quently Jealous of the husbands or
wives of their daughters or sons. Wives
become Jealous of the sisters or moth
ers of their husbands. No one Is i'm
mune against the little green baclll of
jealousy.
Generally the tears or frowns of
Jealousy nre swept away with n few
kind words ana carcss. but there are
some unhappy persons whose jealousy
Is chronic and who make themselves
ridiculous and annoying by their fits
and storms OF jealous passion. The
Jealousy of such persons Is beyond rea.
son. Indeed. II Is form of dementla
which bcgcts every sort of violence.
Pride is the strongest controller of
jealousy. The theologians reckon pride
among the seven deadly sins. but ns
thntter of fact pride is at the bottom of
much OF the virtuous action In the
world. Pride IL the root of most bray
cry. fortitude, courtesy, magnanimity.
humility and industry. Pride Is the es.
scntlal spirit of thorough breeding. and
In spite of being enumerated among
the deadly sins pride is not connected
with turpitude.-san Francisco Bulle.

OOO-The Proposed Post.

Since the purpose OF the government to
abandon the indianapolis arsenal became
publicly known there has been talk of ask
ing the government 70 sell the arsenal
grounds 10 the city or 10 an educational
institution for what they cost the govern
ment." The impression has been that this
amount was about $4,000 One that is
intimately acquainted with the facts said
yesterday that the governments invest
ment at the arsenal is about 100000. The
original purchase of land by the govern
ment was eighty-six acres for $4,000. Ow-
ing TO the streets that have been put
about the arsenal grounds and the setting
back of the fences there are now within
the Enclosure about seventy-five acres.
on this ground since the government has
owned it, there has been spent $4,000 in
improvements. such as grading. road-mak-
ing fencing and sewerage The buildings
have cost $4,000. the storehouse alone rep
resenting sos. 100 The buildings were
erected at time when the prices of ma
terials and labor were very high. The gov
eminent has spent $4,000 for the care of
the grounds Thus the total amount paid
by the government for the property is about
100000
MAJOR Shdler, the communicate OF the ar
senal. has received no instructions contra
dictOry 10 the order to close the arsenal
on June 80. BY that time either the Third
Battalion of the Third Infantry will have
arrived a small detachment of troops
from a neighbOring post will be placed on
duty here to look after the governments
property until il is sold. There is unCer-
tainty about the coming of the battalion,
though the invoices for the commissary
stores. eQuipage and tenting for the troops
have arrived and the supplies themselves
will follow soon. The battalion is now
resting in San Francisco.
The amount of land necessary for a regi-
mental post is 500 or go acres. The tract
should be from a third to "A half mile wide

Reason the Fire Department Was So

Ignorance cost residents of the north
eastern section Of the city several thou
sand dollars on Tuesday afternoon. The
spread of the fire to the homes of a dozen
of his neighbors was due 10 Charles Kinan-
der the saloon keeper at Seventeenth street
and the Lake Erie & Western tracks, not
knowing how to turn in fire alarm. Kin
ander is custodian of the key to box No.

corning the way 10 turn in fire alarm.
How did you turn in the alarm on Tues
day afternoon" asked Hoffbauer.
We'll. / went TO the box and opened the
door," replied Kinander.
Didn't you pull down the lever?''
What lever?"
why, the lever in the box"
"No."
Hoffbauer questioned Knander more
closely and then learned that Kinander
thought that opening the box sent in an
alarm. Kinander said that he opened the
box and waited fully twenty minutes be-
fore the firemen arrived. The firemen were
called from the office of the Eaglesfield
lumber yards. and had Kinander been de-
pended on for an alarm the northeastern
part OF the city would have been laid in
ashes. Kinander said he thought 1t was
strange the fire department was slow in
coming.
