RANK OF THE WHITE HOUSE.
In Point Of Architecture It Is in a
Class by Itself.

One moonlight night in June, 1902,
while strolling through the grounds
with Mr.. Charles F. McKim, one of
the members of the park commission,
we seated ourselves on one of those
mounds which tradition ascribes to
John Quincy Adams's taste in land
scape architecture. That afternoon
crowds of people arraycd in joyous
costumes BETTING the semi-tropics
had come from the hot city to rest
under the trees and listen to the Sat
urday concert of the marine band.
The musicians, clad in white duck,
were located in a little depression so
that the sound Of the music rolled up
the slopes to the attentive audience
A year before we had observed the
same effect at Versailles; and both
the similaritios and the differences of
the two pictures were being discussed
as we sat in the quiet night, behind
the locked gates. where not sound
from the city streets broke the CRATE
full noise of water splashing in the
fountains. On the high portico the
president sat amid a group of dinner
guests, and the lights of their cigars
were ECHOED" by the drowsy fireflies
fitting about the grounds, only the
brilliantly lighted windows of the sec
retary's Office even suggesting the
workaday world. The moonlight, shin
ing full on the White House, revealed
the harmonious lines of its graceful
shape.
Tell me-" 1 asked the architect,
among the great houses that have
been built during recent years in the
general style of the White House
many of them larger and much more
costly-is there any that, in point Of
architecture, surpasscs it?'
mo; there is not one in the same
class with it," he replied deliberately

the MONDAY sun.--From Charles
Moore's THE Restoration of the
White House" in Century.

was waving something in her hand
something which the woman recognized
as a copy Of The Juvenile.
"Oh mamma. mammal" she painted
breathleasfy, as she came near "You1
story-your beautiful story! They've
printed it at last!'
The woman toole the bright new copy
Of the publication and opened at the
place indicated. Her hands trembled
little; and something came into hei
eyes that blotted nHt the fair printed
page and beautiful illustrations.
She glanced at the unopened letter IN
her hand; that made it seem even more
real. Then. still in dream, she tore
off the cover. and saw typewriter
sheet, with something tinted and fold
ed, something that made her heart
Eound and culver, as it had done so
long ago. 1t was a check-she could
see it was that-but the typewriter
letter blurred. and she handed it to the
little girl" The little girl" gave it
one hasty glance, then
Listen. Listen. she cried. "Ch,
mamma, listen!" Then she read joy
ousy:
Dear Madam-We take great pleas
ure, after all the years of waiting in
offering to our readers this month
your beautiful little story, Hopes
Afeld." 1t seems even better today than
when we took it so long ago. Indeed
we must offer this as our only excuse
fo:' the delay; but you must allow us to
add to our original payment another
check for an equal amount in order to
make the price something near what
we would pay for such story today,
and we trust that, undismaycd by the
long waiting, you will let us have many
such from your pen. We are, my dear
madam,
'The Juvenile Company"
The the woman listened. and saw the
little girl with the letter and check
in her hand, all her youth and JOY and
ambition came surging back. "Oh, little
girl" she cried, Il must-I must go out
into the tall grass once more and look
up at the sky!-A. 3. Paine in the

LAND TO BE DRAINED.

The report on the construc-
tion of such bitches contains a
statement of the nature of the
ground which the bitches will
drain. The land in that part
of the county is low, and is nat
urally drained by the Boyer
river. 1t compromises a broad
prairie which at times breaks
into low swales that during a
part of the year are flooded
with water, forming numerous
lakes.
By the change in the channel
of the Missouri the Boyer river
runs for eleven miles parallel
to the Big Muddy, one and a
half miles distant; before the
streams finally merge. The
bitches proposed, it is claimed,
will drain this low land and
make it all tillable.
Mr.. Cook will present his re-
port to the board of supervisors
at their next meeting, and will
appear, together with a number
of the land owners in that part

extensive owner of the Missouri

officials relative to the CON
struction of the ditch in Pott-

supervisors and present the
drainage matter to them from

New Disease Killing Cattle

Mt. Ayr, Ia, Jan. 20. About
ten herds of cattle in scattered
localities in Ringgold county
are suffering from what is
thought to be the most serious
disease that has ever attacked
cattle in this part of the count
ry. DR.. w. A. McClanahan. the
Redding veterinarian, finds that
the trouble much resembles
nodular disease in sheep, being
caused by worms that hatch
out in the intestines and burrow
into the walls. During the bur-
rowing process the animals suf-
fer greatly They either die in
a short time or else they eat
ravenously, but grow slowly
poorer and weaker until they
are unable to get up. The ma
lady more often attacks calves
and yearlings than older cattle,
and is more severe in younger
animals. The animals that
have recovered have shown no
ability SO far to resume growing
or fattening. No medicine SO
far used has had any effect in
curing. although specimens of
the worms and full particulars
have been sent to the state ex-
pertinent station at Ames. The
station replied that the COM
munication from here was the
first information they had that
such a disease existed in the
state. 1t is supposed that the
egg from which the worm is
Matched is laid on the grass in
the fall, so as a preventive
some stock owners are keeping
their cattle off of pasture and

five cattle have died in the
county. Some of the principal
loosers are James r. Fisher,

EIGHT MILES IN COUNTY.

In the report of County Sur
veyor Cook it is recommended
that the two bitches which
have been proposed by Harri-
son county be extended into
Pottawattamie county and be
given an outlet to the Missouri
river. The bitches in Potta-
wattamie county will be located
only in Rockford township and
will be altogether about eight
miles in length.
A few years ago the agitation
for a perfect drainage in the
valley between the Boyer and
Missouri rivers was taken up,
and it was proposed by Harri-
son county to dig two bitches
which would be known as the
Allen Creek ditch and the Will
low Creek ditch. The plans
made by Commissioner Wattles
of Missouri Valley, the con-
sulting engineer, provided for
these drainage bitches to pass
through this county. No actual
construction work has as yet
been done in Harrison county,
but the land has been con-
demned, and the necessary
bonds for the appraisement
values have been filed. The
construction in that county is
now hindered only by the neces-
sary steps which are being
! taken in Pottawattamie county
