The carpenters and bricklayers at
work on the first floor heard groan-

masonry. In another minute the whole
framework of the upper stories came
tumbling down.
The workmen rushed out of the

the debris. Their companions extri-

The other two were only slightly hurt.

DRAKE PLAYED WE'LL
Chicago Horseman Cleaned Up a
Fortune on the Turf.
His Companion, John w. Gates, Also
Was Heavy Winner This Sea-
son-GambIingF Fever Ram
pant Everywhere.

Never in the history of the American
turf has the gambling fever possessed
the habitues of the race tracks so COM
pletely as it has this season, says spe-
cial from New York. Fortunes have on
several occasions changed hands in less
than minute and half. Men who
started in the season with small bets
became intoxicated with early gains
and subsequently developed into plung-
ers of the first water.
Such is 6. Langdon, who began with
a small amount early in the season, and
is now $4,000 richer. Of the old school
of plungers, men who have fought the
bookmakers for years, John A. Drake
is easily first in point of winning, for he
has secured 100000 from the ring dur
ing the short space of four months.
John w. Gates, brakes friend is third
on the list. Senator p. H. McCarren
leads all the eastern plungers with
100000 to his credit.
Drake heads the list of winning
plungers. From the time his colt
Wyeth won the American Derby at
Chicago he has had but few big losses
in bets. His worst meeting financially
was at Saratoga. At the Spa fortune
sidetracked him for a time, and he lost
a large amount-$100,000, well-in-
formed bookmakers say. His horses
were all out of form and lost repeated
ly. As he always backed them when
ever they appeared to have the slight
est chance to win, he lost IS per cent.
of his wagers.
At the Sheepshead Bay meeting
Drake more than made up for his Sara
toga losses. He cleaned up $150,000 on
his colt Savable wnen he won the
Futurity, and his friend, John w.
Gates, won 100000.
Since that day he has won all his bets

1t was largely owing to Mr.. Towers
energy that the great iron deposits of
northern Minnesota were developed.
He took the presidency of the Duluth
& Iron Range Railway company in 1852,
and for five years was one of Mime
sofas leading citizens. Returning to
Philadelphia in 1887 he became vice
president of the Finance company, was
soon made president, and remained in
that office until 1891, when he was
elected to leave active business for his
pursuits in literature. His most not
able production was the book, THE

can Revolution" Mr.. Tower is a re-
gent of the University of Pennsylvania,
and was president OF its department of
archaeology and paleontology. and he
is a member of number of scientific
societies. He married Miss Helen
Smith at Oakland. Cal, in 1888, and has
three sons. Lafayette college recently
conferred on Mr. Tower the degree of

his sterling worth, his prominence in

Want a Change.

Propositions will be made to the next
legislature to change the present bu-
reau system, by which dairy inspection
and pure food regulations are grouped
under one set of officials. Friends of
the dairy interests urge that a separate
department should be created for the
dairy inspector 1t is urged that food
inspection takes too much of the time
of field men, and that separate de-
partment with it's own inspectors, es-
pecially trained, should enforce the
laws against adulterated groceries and
embalmed meats
Another suggestion that finds some
favor is that a department of agricul-
ture be installed, with one commission

the work now done by the dairy and
food department and by the game and

TOWER is PROMOTED
Chosen to Succeed White as Am
bassador to Germany.
Il Taken from ST. Petersburg, Where
He Has Been Stationed for Sew
eral Years Appoint ent
Pleases Germans.

President Roosevelt has chosen
Charlemagne Tower, ambassador to
Russia, to succeed Mr.. White as am
bassador to Germany. Notifications
of this decision and that Mr.. Whites
letters of recall had been issued by
the state department have reached
the foreign office at Berlin.
Mr.. Tower brings to his new Of
fee great wealth, valuable library
and a mind well stocked with the
fruits of years spent in historical
research. He is the son of one of
the leading business men of Penn
sylvania, and inherited fortune of
about $10,0OO,000, which he has in
creased by wise transactions. The
new ambassador was born in Phila-
delphia April II, 1S4S, and is the
eighth in descent from John Tower,
who came to this country from Eng
land in 1857. Mr.. Tower had the ad-
vantages Of the public schools in his
preliminary education, and then went
to a military academy at New
Haven, Conn. Thence he went to
Phillips academy at Exeter, n. H.,
and graduated from Harvard in 1872.
For several years after leaving
Harvard Mr.. Tower travelled extern
sively and gratified his desire to be
a student of history, languages and
literature. At one time he was the
intimate of the distinguished Ger
man writer, Herr Herbert Rau.
While Gen. Daniel Sickles was United
States minister to the court of Spain
Mr.. Tower became an attache of the
legation at Madrid for the purpose of
making a study of diplomacy. In
1876 the young Philadelphia
traversed the Holy Land on horse
back and added greatly to his store
of knowledge of Biblical times. Re-
turning to Philadelphia he read law

Apples.

Additional proof that excellent APP
pies can be grown in Minnesota by any
person willing to make haste slowly is
afforded by the ten acres of trees and
the twenty varieties of apples now
growing on the farm of Henry Busse,
between the Rose Hill nursery and the
state fair grounds. He has little ST.
berian crabs upon his trees and big
specimens of Patterns greetings.
Gideon's Wealthy Hibernal tantalizes
small boys, and the Duchess of Olden-
burg smiles rosily among the falling
leaves. Mr.. Busse insists that Mime
sofa can produce as large and as good
apples as any state in the union. But
few years patience is demanded here
to raise trees from small beginnings,
SO that they may become hardy from
their earliest youth.

Thursday of last week and in the out
of-town poolrooms to win him out.
When the colt galloped home winner
in front of EoXane he had evened up
the score against Runnels and had a
profit to show.
He won heavily during the Chicago
meeting on his horses. This money
with the amounts won at Sheepshead

winner of 100000 on the season.

companion, Drake, won at Saratoga.
