worth of valuable securities These he
turned over to Harker with the admoni-
ton to be more careful in the future.
Harker was three years paying this loan.
Since that time he had lived in practical
retirement from active Wall street, but
engaged in private speculation, mostly
mining stocks. At the time of his death
he was negotiating mining deal out of
which he expected to clear 10000.
Harker owned some of the most noted
horses in the country, and in his stable on
one occasion was Maud s Mr.. Harker
purchased her for $40, 000 and afterward
amount. The famous driving team,
Bruno and Brunette, were also owned by
him. President Grant at one time ex-
pressed desire to see these horses, and
was introduced TO Mr.. Harker, who gave
the President many rides behind them.
Brunette, Matte, May Owen and Lula,
all fast horses for which Mr. Harker had
paid an average of $15, 900 each, were sold
in 1880 to Leland Stanford, OF California,
for 500, 900. Mr.. Harker was also dog
fancier, and for many years was the pos
SCISSOR of one of the finest kennels in the
country.
Mr.. Harker was Republican, but took
no active interest in politics. He was par
ticularly fond of euchre and whist, and
most of his evenings were spent at his
home entertaining his friends at these
games. He entertained lavishly and dis
tributed his wealth in channels where he
personally thought it would do the most
good.
He lived for several years in Brooklyn,
but later moved to the Everett House,
New York, where he lived for thirty -onf
years.

Dear Sir:-The undersigned are Com
mittee of former residents of New Jersey,
now residing in the city of St. Louis. AS
such they desire to present to you some
facts in regard to the Louisiana Purchase
Exposition, which is to be held in st.
Louis in 1908
The Exposition has come to be popularity
called the 'World's Fair" That it will
be such. we submit, is indicated by the
following facts:
The United States Government has APP
propriated S., 900, 900 in aid of the Expo

subscription. In addition to this fund of
SIS. OOO, 600 which is available for the use
of the Exposition, the State of Mis-
souri, has voted $1,000.000 for State
building and exhibit. The State of IL

Illinois display; 1owans promise that their

their resources The estimated cost of
this Exposition is $50, 900 900, as compared
with SIS, 1922, 900 at Chicago and $4,000, 900

effects and arrangement of buildings.
The grounds, which are undulating and

A Waist with Elbow sleeye..

Robes OF black or white lace, span
gled and jetted net or embroidered
chiffon are very fashionable this sea-
son. The lining of shimmering satin
or shot silk forms an important part Of
the general effect, ami the toilets are
usually made quite plain, in order to
display the rich fabrics to good advan-
tage.
The costume illustrated in the large
drawing is made of saffron lace over
white satin lining and trimmed with
turquoise blue panne. The waist is
mounted on glove-ftted, feather
boned lining, that closes in the front.
The back Is drawn smoothly across
the shoulders. and has slight fulness at
the waist. arranged in tiny pleats. The
front is also plain, and forms decided
blouse over The narrow belt. The lace
closes across the left shoulder around
the arm's-eye and under the arm.
A plain transparent collar completes
the neck. The elbow puffs are finished
with narrow bands that are covered
with panne fastened beneath rosette.

loops and crocheted buttons. They are
fitted smoothly across the bust, but

belt that closes with fancy silver
buckle.
The neck is completed with rolling
collar of MORE that forms narrow re-
vers in front. The sleeves are regula-
tion bishop models fitted with inside
seams. They have slight fulness on
the shoulders, and are finished with
moire cuffs of unique shaping.
Etons in this style may be made of
taffeta, peau de sole. cheviot broad or
ladies' cloth and worn as separate out
side garments. They are, however,
usually accompanied by skirts of the

prior TO putting in the new sill. IN
some instances this would require a
long time; in other instances not SO
long.
Wrecking crews are usually station
cd at two or three points on divi-
sion. There is usually one large steam
wrccker, with lifting capacity Of so
tons, and then there will be one or
two hand-wreckers. The men on these
wrcckers receive the same wages as
t.e car repairers who work on the re-
pairs tracks. except that for extra time
the men on the wreckers receive about
20 cents an hour The average wreck
er carries crew of ~ men. These,
of course, are skilled In their particu-
lar line. The modern machinery with
which they work is marvellous in many
respects. Every one Is familiar with
the remarkably short time that is re.
quired to clear track in this day.
That which would require but a few
hours now would have taken several
days a quartercentury ago.
The average American railroad sys-
TEN employs several thousand men
In its repair departments alone. In
the big shops of the companies the
largest numbers are employed, but
even in small cities as high as 1875
men will be kept steadily at work.
These men are capable of building
car, from the trucks up, with the va
rious parts that are so extensive some
times after wreck that the car may
De said TO be rebuilt.
At Collinwood, Ohio. there has just
been completed the biggest locomotive
repair shops in the world by the Lake
Shore & Michigan Southern railway.
Later. 1t is said that very extensive
car repairing interests will here be
added. The dimensions OF the new
shops are 600 by 800 feet. The walls
are of brick and the framework of
steel. Here some 2OO0 men will be
employed, and their sole work will be
repairs. The machinery will be mar
velous, including cranes with a lift
ing capacity of 100 tons. No locomo-
tives will here be built but many will
be practically rebuilt.-Philadelph
