Congratulations were extended and re-

music, both vocal and instrumental,
was enjoyed. The house was taste
fully decorated with cut flowers. The

sent about $500 or $500 % these men.
AS far as can be learned none of them
have any insurance.
Weber & Gage carried insurance
with both the Downing and Macomber,
Farr &; Written agencies. The former
had a risk of $1,000 on the main build
ing, and Mr.. Weber stated that there
was about $1,000 with the latter agency
upon the burned buildings
The plant was built in 1856 by Dayen-
port & Wyman, who conducted tho
business until 1860, when the senior
member of the firm retired and the
firm name became Wyman & William
son. Mr.. Williamson retired in 1866
and the business was carried on by
Wyman & Son until 1884, when Chand-
Ter Weber and William E. Gage be-
came partners of Mr.. Wyman. The
latter retired some years ago and
Messrs. Weber and Gage have car
ried on the business since.
The fire department made a good
fight and fortunately prevented the fire
from spreading and destroying much
more property. Every piece of hose in
the city, except the reserve supply, was;
brought into play.
While the fire was in progress great
crowds of people, men, women and
children. were present to view the con-
migration. From all over the city and
even>from Hallowell they came to see
the startling sight. When it was real
lied that there was danger of the gas
tanks exploding, hundreds came away
Superintendent Williams was afraid
the intense heat from the burning
buildings, which was so powerful that
one couldn't stand on the road beside
the tanks with any degree of comfort,
might bring about spontaneous COM
bustion, and, if such had resulted, no
one could estimate the damage to life
and property that would have been
caused.
Happily, however, the fire was al
most wholly confined to the light
timbered main buildings, where but
little heavy lumber was located. This
was the reason for their rapid demoli-
ton. And it also accounts for the fact
that the gas tanks escaped destruction
Had the other buildings to the west
ana north have burned the danger from
the heat would not be so severely felt
at the gas works.
The loss of this property will be
greatly felt by the present owners, who
DO not as yet know whether they will
rebuild or not. Its destruction will
also be keenly felt throughout the city.

A most wonderful spectacle is the
famous Natural Tunnel, of Scott
County, Virginia. 1t is situated four
teen miles west of Gate City. Stone
Creek. a considerable stream, flows
along its cavernous bed with a noise
resembling the heaviest thunder. The
tunnel is about one-eighth of a mile
in length, and curves in the form of
the letter S. At its southern en-
trance 1t is very high, the noble CELL
ing bending gracefully, forming a cir
cular dome, as smooth and regular as

at the northern entrance, 1t reaches
to within thirty feet of the surface Of
the water. Here is a perpendicular
wall, almost as smooth as polished
marble and as white as alabaster,
rises 400 feet high, and r in such
a manne hat to one looking up
from below the regular rim presents
a complete semicircle. In the spring
time the summit of the wall is fringed
with green intertwined with honey
suckles. On the eastern side, Chin
ney Rock, an irregular but perpen-
dicular column, rises from the bottom
OF the chasm to the level of the pla-
ear above, standing clear OF the wall
from base to summit. The ridge
through which the tunnel extends Is
covered with a heavy growth of tim

from C~linchport to Rye Cove. passes
along its crest. The Virginian and
Southwestern Railway has been o IN
structed through the tunnel. and pre-
sents perhaps the only instance of a
railroad running through a natural
tunnel. Owing to the curvature the
railroad company had to tunnel
through the angular projection near
the northern entrance. thus making
a double tunnel.

"a COLORADO COLONEL"
BY VIM. c. CAMPBELL.

When a railroad attorney turns his
hand to literary work his books are
not likely TO be dull. His calling is
in itself a suggestion of life. hustle and
variety, and his point of view is natu-
rally that of the traveler and cosmopol-
itan. "a Colorado Colonel and Other
Sketches by William Carey Camp
bell, Is chiefly remarkable for the fact
that 1t is permeated in every line by
the spirit of the West. A western story
written by n tenderfoot is invariably
as much off color as Is n western land
scape painted by an eastern artist from
a photograph. In both, while the out
lines may be wholly western, the at
mosphere is that of the East.
Mr.. Campbell lives in Prescott, Ari-
IONA, and is general attorney for the
Santa Fe x Phoenix railway and the
Prescott & Eastern railroad. Formerly
he lived in Topeka. Kansas, n he is
substantially n product of the West.
Hence in describing western scenes and
western people he never touches 4
false note. His westerners live and
breathe in their natural atmosphere.
HIS book consists of one tolerably
long story, "A Western Colonel" and
nineteen shorter sketches of life and
scenes in Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado,
ANtN NtNlNo anu lLOhu. Nv SNblN
IL sketches are alike Kaleidoscope
II in some Instances unstudied and
sketchy after the impressionist style.
The delightful Colonel Golden S. Fer
guson is n mine promoter or boomer"
of the Colonel Sellers style, and his
peculiaritieS are exaggerated in the
story TO the point of the burlesque.
The romance is furnished by the love
affairs of the younger people, whose
fortune 1t Is to become associated with
him.
After saying that the local coloring
Is always perfect, the character of the
short sketches will be pretty well suG-
gested by their titles, which are as
follows: The Bucking Bronco"
"Quien Sabc?" 'The Eagle and the
JaCkrabbit," "A Cat Greek Conversa-
ton" The Backsliding Mt Cat Creek"
in Arizona soda Springs Smith"
Governor for Five Minutes pixies
Peak by Moonlight Colonel Jackson
of Colorado" THE Medicine Man.
The Passing of Jack Thompson
The Opening of the Cherokee Strip"
Christians on the Huerfano," Heap
Big Injun." Fables of the Desert" "A
Kansas Emigrant,' AT the Bright
Angel Trail" THE Cow Catcher"
While there is much quiet humor and
some eNaggeration in the stories, they
are in no way sensational. They are
smoothly and en~tertainingly written
and make easy reading. A few of
them appeared in magazines or news
papers before they were put In book
form.
The work is handsomely Illustrated
by a large number of half tones from
photographs M drawings. The ty-
Biography, paper, presswork and bind
ing are highly creditable to the pub

THE PRESIDENTS SECRETARY.
Iosition Requires QusIiHc cations of
business Man and Diplomat

Io'ition Requires QusIiH cations of
business Man and Diplomat
The position of Secretary to the
President of the United States is an
rduou one. In the rendering of its
multitudinous services 1t calls for the
business qualifications of a method
ical and systematic clerk, in the per-
formance of the daily routine of off,
clal work. and the finesse of a prac-
ticed diplomat in meeting and salts
factorily adjusting situations which
naturally come before him as an in
termediary between the President and
an assorted public. each individual OF
which believes himself entitled to a
portion Of the time and interest Of
the chief executive.
The task of handling and answer
ing the White House mail is in itself
nc small one. the President receiving
from 200 to 1000 letters a day. In
portant or not. each of these COM
munications receives due attention,
the secretary carefully sorting and
classifying them; presenting some to
the personal attention of the Presi-
dent. referring others to the depart
ment or person to which each prop
erly belongs. while all receive cour-
teous acknowledgement from the
Presidents representative.
The Secretary is also required to
meet and dispose of the numerous Wis
itors who call on the President at
times not set aside for his public re-
captions. and whose business ranges
all the way from that relative to the
appointment of a Supreme court
judge or the governor of a turbulent
territory to the obtaining of the pres
idential autograph for a schoolgirls
album.
To deal with this heterogeneous
mass in such a way as to best serve
the ends of both business and cour-
tesy requires endless Of
tact and good judgment.
The Secretary is also expected to
keep at his fingers ends. says Sue
cess. the details of all the official bus
iness Of the executive office, and the
President is likely to send for him
frequently each day to consult him
regarding official engagements which
have been made by him, to seek in
formation and advise with him upon
some matter under consideration, or,
at a moments notice, to bring papers
and data in some case demanding i'm
mediate attention.
