HOUSE OF 5000 BITS OF WOOD.
Toy Made by a Woodworker in a
Connecticut Town.

Connecticut Town.
George Wright, a sawyer in the
employ of a dock company in Tor
rington, has completed a miniature
house, says the Waterbury Republi-
can. 1t is gothic in style, a story and
a half in height. There is a porch
in front, the roof of which is supported
by pillars. On each side of the porch
and separate from it are balconies
There are two bow windows.
The house is built in imitation of a
brick building, and is composed of
1882 pieces of wood, including syca-
more, or California red wood, as it is
called, and mahogany, and fine white
paper is used between the bricks to
represent mortar. Over the porch at
the front of the house is small
clock. There are windows with lace
curtains and shades.
In every respect it is complete
and wellappointed house. 1t is a
very handsome piece of work and
proves Mr.. Wright to possess large
amount of patience. The work has
been done at odd moments at his
home in Torrington.
He also has a number of other
pieces of his handiwork, including a
picture frame composed of 10000
pieces of wood, but probably there is
nothing that he has done that will
quite equal the house in design and
workmanship.

Preserved by Military Discipline.

A terribly dramatic scene was wit
messed a few days ago in a theater
at Wiobslaesk, in Russia. During the
performance in the town, a bouquet
was being presented to the leading
lady, when by some accident a petro-
teum lamp became upset, and the
scenery was set on fire. For a few
moments, awed by the very excess of
their terror, the audience kept their
seats. and before a panic had time to
assert itself the voice of the military
ccmmandant was heard giving orders
In loud tones to the officers of whom
many were present, to see that all
women and children were conducted
safely to the doors Under their cool
direction the people restrained them
selves and ultimately were got out
without a stampede. Shortly after,
the place collapsed.

ENGRAVED DONKEY ON BILL.
Practical Joke Played by Govern
ment Employe.


A ten-dollar bill, circulating in Los
Angeles, Cal, and bearing the engrav-
ing of an American eagle and anoth-
er bird, sometimes called Rocky
Mountain canary, but more commonly
known as a mule, proves beyond
doubt that an undignified practical
joke has been played in the engrav-
ing department at Washington.
The bill was issued in 1880, when
an Englishman was in charge of the
engraving department. Whether the
Britisher held a grievance against the
United States or whether he sought
to show that an Englishman has a
sense of humor is not known, but all
the currency that left the department
while he was in charge bore the IN
patriotic picture.
The currency had been in circula-
ton for perhaps year when the
donkey was noticed by the depart
ment and called in.
Within twelve months after the cur
rency was tabooed every bill was ac-
counted for except one. Bill No.
35 1873, 766 could not be located until
it came into the possession of A. O.
