STOOD THE TEST.
Cement Blocks for the New School
House Make Good.

There has been a great deal Of
comment regarding the strength of
the cement blocks that are being
manufactured for use in the new
school building. Many have contend
ed that they were unsafe as they were
not Of sufficient hardness to Withstand
the pressure that would come upon
them. This being the case the school
trustees appointed Henry Heidenreich
as inspector, and he has been on the
ground every day since the manufac-
turing began.
Yesterday Mr.. Heidenreich and men,
bers of the school board together with
Mr.. Fowler, made tour of inspection
and also a test of the blocks. The
manufacturers guaranteed the blocks
to stand more weight than will be
/ imposed upon them. The test was
made with dead weight. The blocks
were placed in the same position as
they will occupy in the building. On
top of this were placed lao sacks Of
cement or $4,000 pounds pressure
The blocks stood the deal perfect,
and, in fact, the timbers gave more
than the blocks. There was absolu
tely no showing of crumbling or break
ing with the weight
The test has conclusively show
that the new material is all that i
claimed for it and when the cemen

TOO MUCH FOR scoTTY.
A Los Angeles Goal Oil Tommy"
Comes to 6 rief in Gotham.


A loud mouthed, flannel shirte
young man from Los Angeles started
for New York a few weeks ago and
the wires were kept hot with the sor.
of things he was going to do in the
City of New York.
His idea was to make ali the pre-
vfous money burners hunt their holes
in sheer modification. 1t was ger
orally supposed that he kept some
patent hydro-carbon furnace for the
purpose of burning his money up.
When he reached New York. how
ever he experienced a rude shock.
No one met him at the depot and
when he went about trying to make
sensations, he attracted very little at
tention.
His first break was to set up the
drinks at at Waldorf bar. He peeled
off a two dollar bill from the top lay
er of his bank roll and took twenty
cents change. This break setted
/ Scotty's fate in New York. He be
came a laughing stock after that. His
first hot time there was of short
days duration and his expenses less
than hundred.
He began to bump up against mel
who were spending hundred an hou
and no one paying any attention t
them
When Scotty heard that Hyde o
the Equitable had spent 100000 o.
a single supper, he leaned up agafns
a lamp post and wept.
He was also quite astonished whe
he learned that New York was col
siderably larger than Los Angeles.
Scotty is now on his way home
} travelling in the tourist.
