OLDEST REVENUE BOOK.
A Discovery That Should Interest Chi *4s5{#- oa ot h,oty Joa+a

A Discovery That Should Interest Chi
 cago, at Any Rate.
 Tn runaging through the vaults of the
 county clerks office Archie Cameron, tax expert of the office, discovered the original collectors warrant for the town of South Chicago for the year 1853, says the Chicago Daily News. The
 book is apparently the only record of it's kind that was saved from the great Chicago fire in 1871 and is the oldest revenue book in Cook county.
 About thirty per cent. of those as sessed in 1853 did not pay, according to the entries in the book. The names of many well known in Chicagos early days appear Tn the assessment book. Norman B.. Judd, Abraham Lincoln's $ friend and companion in those days, i paid q personal property assessment of $2.56.
 The rapid increase in real estate val ues in the down town district Is reflect 1 ed in the assessment entered in the book for the year 1853. The piece of proper l ty on State street between Washington and Randolph, now occupied by Mar shall Field & Company was valued by 1 the assessor at $26,500 that year and the taxes paid amounted to $274.0f. IT lthose days the property at Randolph and Lake streets, where the Masonic l Temple now stands, was assessed $142.. 80 and valued at fourteen thousand dol | lars by, the assessor.

RAILROAD MEMS HOURS.
Indiana Law Prohibits More Than Six

Indiana Law Prohibits More Than Six
 teen Consecutive Hours.
 Indiana, with all her faults and all her vagaries, does some good things, and when they are good they are very good, indeed. One of them is the law prohibiting railways working their em- ployes on the rail for more than sixteen consecutive hours. The legislation is not only humane in it's provisions. but 1t contains the largest measure of safe ty for the travelling public and for the safety of freights. Under the provisions of the statute the executive officials of all roads ope- rating in Indiana are obliged to pla- card the shops and other buildings of the road with notices to the operating officials of the existence of the law pro- 'hibiting them continuing any employe in work beyond the specified time. It
 is not to be believed that the railways would willingly overwork their men to the point of breaking them down, for good and trained railroaders are not to be picked up in the market, places, though the fact that the pay is often according to the mileage is an tnduce-
 ment which some railroad men are un- able to resist.
 There are interests above and beyond
 and of far greater importance than the
 wages the men may desire to earn and the roads be willing to pay, and the safety of life and freight are among the higher interests. Eight hours of rest with less than eight hours of sleep, are | not more than sufficient for railroaders l who have been on the rail, in the en- zine cab, or on top of a freight for six teen hours. If Indiana will but enforce her statute good will come to men and to roads, and other states may profit by the example set by the Hoosier state. - Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.

PROF" soELcHs BODY FOUND.
Floater Discovered by oysterman Near Lighthouse Point. \


 " As Captain Long. of the oyster boat
 "W. H. Lockwood" belonging to H.. C.. Rowe, was coming up the harbor at noon yesterday he saw the body of a man floating just off the lighthouse, He had a boat lowered and conveyed the body to the Point. Medical Examiner Bartlett viewed the remains and saw that the body had been in the water about week. The coroner later order ed them taken to the undertaking rooms
 os Stahl & Son on Meadow street. There the body was identified as being
 that of Joseph Soelchs of 293 Winchester avenue, who was drowned a week ago Sunday night by being washed over- board from David Gaines yacht 'Es- prito!" The Identification was made by members of the MT. Soelch's family and they say there is no doubt but what it is his body. On Fourth of July night David Gaines. Yale '01, of New York city, arrived here in his yacht. accom- panied by some friends including some Yale graduates. They came up town to dinner that evening and decided to have a celebration on board the boat that night. MT. Soelch was a we'll known college character who furnished music for the students on all kinds of occasions, being known as the "profes- sor." A messenger boy was sent to his home with a note which requested him to meet the party and furnish music on board the yachtt. He accepted the in- vitation and stayed all night on board. The next day he accompanied the party for a sail to Branford. The paety re- turned to New York by train, ordering the captain to anchor at this city on the way back and leave MT. Soelch. When I the boat was off the entrance to the har- | bor M.. Soelch was standing near the bow. and large wave coming along washed him overheard. He sank from sight and although every attempt was made to save him, he was not again seen until the body was found yester- | day.

"NE1HBoR ROOSEVELT"

The posters announcing the celebra- ton of the 25Oth anniversary of the settlement of Huntington, L. T., tell the joyous crowds that "Neighbor Roose- velt'' will be. there. The people of Huntington and their illustrious neigh bor are equally fortunate in the asso- ciation
 When cd made the country he filled it with neighbors. When man made the town he devised many other att fractions, but he forgot that one, which is more important than almost all the rest. There are no neigbors in the city. A man in Harlem may have a friend in Brooklyn and another on Murray Hill, and he may see them two or three times a year. But the person who lives in the next house or next flat is a stranger. Distant friends cannot take the place of neighbors. They can not run in' when they happen to. feel like it. A trip from. Brooklyn to Har- lem is an event and must be planned beforehand.
 Friendship without the sweet aroma of neighborliness becomes insipid. Like love- it needs propinquinity to keep up it's flavor. A long distance friendship tends to fade, first into mere acquain- tance and then into indifference and
 city is in constant danger of becoming a solitary animal. The evolution that herds men together in urban masses
 completes it's circuit by dissolving the social ties and bringing the member of the physical crowd to the mental lone- Illness of the cave dweller.
 i But in the country there are still
 neighbors, with all that that term in-
 plies. And that fact sufficiently ex- plains why President Roosevelt clings
 to his old haunts on Long Island, and ! finds solid comfort there that is lack ing in the hard glitter of Washington society.--New York World. <

ST. WINIFRED'S WELL

St. winifred's Well, in, Holywell, Flintshire, has just been the goal of an annual pilgrimage. Hundreds of per- sons took part in the ceremony at the Welsh Iourdes of walking in procession round the well, participating in the high mass, and interceding with the re- lie of the saintly Winifred for the halt, sick, lame and blind.
 Characterised by the natives as one of the seven wonders of Wales, this miraculous flow of restorative wafer has been worshipped for many decades, and the belief in it's healing properties has survived the lapse of centuries and the changes of religion. It has been visited by William the Conqueror, Hen ry IT., Edward l., James IT., who touched for the evil'' on the steps of the well, the king of the Belgians, and many other eminent personages.-New York World.

WHEN VAUGHAN WASHED WIN. rrrr,

Sir Francis Burnand was at one time
 with the Oblates of St. Charles at Bays
 water when Manning was superior and
 Vaughan was noicemaster For jest
 which had made his fellow-novices laugh at solemn moment, Father Vau-
 ghan, as he then was, condemned Sir
 Francis to clean a easement window
 and volunteered to show him how to do it. Thereupon he stepped out to the
 liberal window sill, his cassock fiutter-
 ing in the friendly wind, which more
 over shut the window. The hasp was
 then turned, and, the dinner bell ring ing, the refractory novice went down to
 the refectory. Tn mid-meal the superb or became aware of little crowd in
 the roadway gazing upward. What was the vision? A brief investigation resulted in the release of Father Vau- ghan, and also of the novice.
