Building a Skyscraper.

"a great amount of curiosity has always
been manifested when large office build
ing or apartment house is in course of con-
struction as to Just the plan of procedure
from start to fnish.' . said a local con-
tractor to a Star reporter today Perhaps
this will satisfy some of the curiosity:
There are four primary factors. In the
beginning there is the man with the money
to buy the ground and pay for the building
when it is erected-the capitalist. Next
comes the architect who executes the
plans, prescribing definitely and compre-
hensively what manner of building is to be
erected; how many, floors of what height
and width, saying where stone shall be
put and where iron. He draws plans show
ing the exterior appearance of the building
Then the third factor the designing engi-
neer takes charge. Before his share in the
work is explained it must be understood
that a modern steel frame building is con-
structed the same architectural princi-
pies as a canvas canoe-a light tough
cover on rigid, secure frame Given the
dimensions of the cover. the engineer de-
signs a steel frame over which the hull of
stone brick and cement may be reared In
q steel-frame building the only purpose the
outer walls serve Is to keep out the wealth

his shop drawings and sent them to the
rolling mills his work is ended.

PHILIPPINE HOGS OF USE
Their Bristles Are Vastly Superior to
All Others for Brush
Making.

At least one good thing has come on
of the Philippines, and the good policy
that dictates the purchase of those is
lands has been vindicated-in the opin.
ion of the brushmakers Of the United
States at least Useful as the good old
American hog is in the matter of food
supply for this and other nations, he
is all to the bad as a producer of bristles
for American brush manufacturers.
His hair is too short and brittle for
brushes of even the chapest grade. For
many years France has supplied the best
grades of bristles to brush manufac-
turers, and in view of the fact that there
is no home competition the duty on them
is not high. Some of the cheaper grades
of bristles come from Germany ana from
Russia. They are tied together in
punches and shipped in barrels.
Lately Uncle Sam has begun to inn.
port a fine quality of bristles from his
own possessions. The hogs there fur.
nish an excellent and adequate supply.
Agents sent out last September by the
brush manufacturers bring back encour.

paid much attention to the expectation

James ]. Hill, pioneer railroad king
of the northwest, has herculean preju-
dices. Among other things he dislikes
bells. He owns the finest sleighs and
horses in st. Paul, but no jingling

phones and never uses one when it
can be avoided. Mr.. Hill maintains

HAWAII WITHOUT DEFENSE.
Would Be No Trouble for a Hostile
Warship to Capture Amer -
Jean Territory.

The indifference shown xs Washing-
on in the matter of military and naval
plans for Hawaii has caused much sur
Prise among prominent army men, says
| recent report. A well-known officer
here recently called attention to
present conditions. The federal govern
nent spent several hundred thousand
tollars securing valuable lands at Pearl
darbor for a naval station, pressing
engthy litigation to close and in
lredging the channel entrance to Pearl
Harbor, and it secured reports and sur
feys from several army boards as to
bites for military camps and land for
if1cations. Then the whole matter
vas dropped and the utmost indiffer-
lnce appears to be the rule now.
Meanwhile Hawaii is defenseless.
Since the United States acquired Pearl
harbor, during Cleveland's first admins
ration, Honolulu has heard nothing but
he strongest expert opinions as to the
great Importance of the islands from a
Ttrategic point of view. Up to within a
few months there has been a long sue
session of army and navy experts voic-
Ing the same idea-that Hawaii was the
key" to the situation Yet the islands
ire utterly unprotected to-day. II
Honolulu is of any value and war should
break out in which the United States
we're involved fleet, unassisted from on
ihore, would have to defend Hawaii
There is not a gun on the island Of
Oahu Of any strength worth consider
ng in such matter. The federal gov
.rnment keeps handful of soldiers
stationed in Honolulu and the Hawaiian
national guard has such strength as
may be expected from a militia organ
ization, and that is all. A hostile fleet
could take the island without firing a
gun unless there was fleet of defense,
and this would mean withdrawing war
.hips from other points.
There are no considerable coal or 9TH
er supplies kept in Hawaii. If the is
lands are of the strategic importance
which they are said to be by Secretary
Taft, Gen. Macarthur, Admiral Evans
and a dozen other army and naval Of
icers who have passed through there,
Uncle Sam shows strange unreadiness to
pTOC6CI IuSm. "A Single CTulScT, d uc-
cent gunboat would have Honolulu at
it's mercy.
Manila is defended, Porto Rico has
forts and American coasts are getting
moreyear by year. while the whole terri
tory of Hawaii is weaker as American
territory than was the happy Hawaiian
monarch who started forth with his lone
warship weighted to the Plimsole line
with gin to annex Samoa and organize
federation of islands of the Pacific.
If the war for which there is so much
preparation and outlay were to sudden
ly start single foreign cruiser could
take Honolulu, and if she had time to
land her guns and place them well be-
