Santa Fe Preparing Plans for 100000
Elevator at Chicago to be Built Soon

/ first of the kind ever built in the
country. They are circular in form
with a diameter Of twenty-five feet
and a height of eighty-five feet and
are built of concrete reinforced with
steel. The walls of the cylinders are
six inches in thickness and are joined
together and the spaces formed by the
junction of the walls are also used
for storage purposes. There are many
grain storage bins in the country con-
structed of concrete and reinforced
with steel but they are built separate
ly and the spaces between them are
consequently wasted. It was for Mr..
Storey to evolve the plan of building
the circular bins SO that the walls
Joined and thereby providing prac-
tically a lot of other bins.
Galleries connect the elevator prop
er with the bins and TIN Rough these
galleries run buckets on endless
chains to- carry the grain from the
elevator to the bins.
Because the plans for the new struc-
ture at Chicago have not been com
pleted as yet the cost Of the work
can not be fixed exactly but Mr..
Storey said yesterday that including
the tracks in the basement he thought
the cost # the entire affair would

Plans and specifications are being
prepared by w, b. Storey, Jr., chief
engineer Of the Atcnison, Topeka 4
Santa Fee Railway company For a
mammoth and modern grain elevator
with adjoining storage bins TO be
erected in the company's yards at
Chicago to take the place of the old
elevator there which was destroyed by
re some six weeks ago.
This new elevator "ill embrace
the novel details of the one which
has just been built by the company
at Argentine, Kan. and which were
original with Mr.. Storey, who develop
ed the plans for that structure. While
the plans for the new buildings at
Chicago are not complete the details
have been worked out and the eleva-
tor proper will have a working ca
pacity of about four hundred thous-
and bushels of grain. and the storage
bins will be able to hold about a mil
lion additional bushels. This capacity
is about one-third larger than that OF
the new structure at Argentine.
Of course there are several eleva-
tors in Chicago which have a larger
storage capacity than the one the
Santa Fee proposes to build. In fact
the elevator which burned down had
a capacity about as large as the rev
one will have and while grain men
figure on an elevators usefulness ac-
cording to it's storage capacity, rail-
roads figure on the utility OF an eleva-
tor according to its loading and more
particularly unloading capacity. and
the new one will have an unloading
capacity that will be fifty per cent
greater than the old one had.
This increased unloading capacity is
made possible by the manner in which
the elevator will be CONSTRUCTED. II
and the storage bins will be butt over
a basement in which will be laid four
tracks, and twenty cars can be run IN
under the bins or elevator for loading
or unloading at one time. This will
give the structure an unloading ca
pacity of about one hundred and twen-
ty-five cars a day and there will be
no elevator in the country that will
have such an unloading capacity.
1t is in the construction Of the stor-
age bins that Mr.. Storey has develop
ed original ideas. There will be thirty
five OF them in the new structure and
they will be built on the same plan
and will be about of the same size as
those at Argentine. which were the

Those Bold Bad Men,

Men are certainly getting bolder," |" said the prlm looking spinster behind the corset counter in the dry goods store. Its really shocking the way some men go on now when 1t comes to buying corsets for their women folk.
 You wouldn't think that a solid business man of this town would as- sist his wife In buying every pair of corsets she wears, would you? But it's a fact, and If I mentioned the mans name you would know him in. stantly, for his name Is often printed in the newspapers.
 And he is not the only one-hus- band, I mean. There are plenty of the unattached men who come right along and brazenly stand at the counter. I'd like to insult them if dared to do it."-Chicago Inter Ocean.

 "I can safely recommend Peruna for catarrh. I had it for years and it would respond to no kind of treatment, or if it did it was only temporary, and on the slightest provocation the trouble would come back.
 "i was in such state that my friends were alarmed about me, and was advised to leave this climate. Then tried Peruna, and to my great joy found it helped me from the first dose took, and few bot lies cured me.

The Spirit of Courtesy.

A nursery governess, giving ha. ex- periences in Everybody's Magazine tells of two small children, of whom the had the care, who never forgot to be polite.
 An amusing feature of our walks, fhe writes, was Toddte's trouble with bis overshoes. They were of size but of all proportion to his feet, and hampered his movements greatly. He was continually taking headers, but was usually laughing when I picked him up Then this little gentleman of two would carefully brush the snow from the bottom of my skirt with his red mittens.
 Bessie, as well as Toddle, showed the instinctive courtesy of kind na- ture. had impressed on her the pro. priety of thanking every one who did her a kindness, and she tried always to comply. We had also talked of the various farm animals, and of how much we owed to them. One day at dinner she looked at her egg for some moments without eating 1t, and then dipped quietly from her chair.
 Where are you going?" her mother asked.
 T am going to thank MT. Wooster for laying me dis nice egg," was the answer.

COLOR OF EYE A FACTOR
Has Much to Do with the Choice of a
 Helpmeet.

New theories of unconscious selec- ton on the part of man and wife like mating with like-as opposed to Darwin's idea that men and women depend upon their perceptive and in other, were propounded by Professor Karl Pearson of University College, London, Ut the royal institution.
 He maintained that man has an un- conscious tendency to select a wife of his own height, with eyes of his own color, a proportlonate span from forelnger to forearm corresponding to his own, and a constitution of like physical vigor.
 These theories he expounded by means of tables and diagrams.
 Among every 1000 men the color of the eyes is divided as follows:
 Blue .......... .363 Hazel ....-....1 .127 Green ........ 312 Brown ........ "A
 The eyes of women are generally darker, only 2S6 of them in every l, 1,000 having blue eyes. In these blue-eyed people married at random, the result would be that they would mate at the rate of 104 per 1000; but he had dis covered that the actual number of marriages per 1000 of blue-eyed per sons was 140, or thirty-six above the random average, thus proving that the blue-eyed man and the blue-eyed wom- an are unconsciously attracted toward one another.
 In the same way, men with green ish gray or hazel eyes tend to marry women with eyes of like color.
 The average height of a man he gave as from sixtyseyen to sixty eight inches and that of woman as sixty two and half inches, and he contend ed that the average tall man has tall wife and the short man short wife.
 "One could hardly ina zine man choosing a wife by measuring hfr from forefnger to forefinger,' said the professor, yet his diagrams demon strated that as the span of one in creased so did that of the other. A like result was produced in the meas urement of thousands of forearms, his figures showing that there was dis tinct tendency on the part of men with long forearms to marry wives with proporuonately long forearms.-Lon- don Mail.

WONDER OF MODERN JAPAN.
Thousand Mat Hall Erected Out of 2
 Single Camphor Tree.

Single Camphor Tree.
 One of the wonders of Miyajima is an enormous structure called Thous- and Mat Hall, name which means that 1000 of the regulation 3x6 foot rice straw mats are required to cover its floor. All rooms in Japan are meas ured in this way, instead of by feet, so in talking about houses one always says a "6-mat room" or "315 mat room," until one begins to think in dl- visions of IS square feet.
 Thousand Mat Hall was erected in the sixteenth century out of the wood of a single camphor tree, say the Japa. .nese records, that are always so full of such perfectly wonderful details. If this be so, camphor trees must have grown very large in Japan In the six teenth century, since the building rests upon a hundred or more piles; each giant tree trunk in itself, besides which the roof Is upheld by at least 50 pillars that were 50 forest monarchs once upon a time. Then there Is floor in the structure made of 1S,00O square feet of cedar blanks foot and a half wide and five inches thick, so one must needs believe that its builder outmiracled the miracle of the loaves and the fishes if Japan's sober records are to count for anything.
 The walls of this ancient hall have doubtless echoed the sounds of many priestly orgy, since 1t adjoins tfs tenn. pie and Is guarded by richly wrought 7-story pagoda, enshrining Amida But su, but the most glorious thing in its history seems to be the fact that Hide yoshi, "the Napoleon of Japan," used 1t for a council chamber during his re- markable invasion of Corea. Now 1t Is merely a "show place." standing empty and open and gaunt, overlooking the sea-a roost for sacred pigeons and chattering sparrows.
 It was during the China-Japan war that troops first began to be quartered on the island, and several regiments, for want of better barracks, were en- camped in this old historical structure. One evening, In half jest, half earnest, a soldier nailed his rice ladle (meshi toru) to one of the pillars, with prayer that he and his regiment might soon be sent to help conquer (meshi toru, with a different infection) the Chinese. His comrades followed hls ex- ample, and since then 1t has become custom for every visitor to the hall to buy rice ladle, and, writing his name and date of his visit upon 1t, with, of course, "Dai Nippon Banzai" tack it up somewhere in the vast building. The effect Is better imagined than de- scribed, and 1t is unique beneath the sun.-Leslie's Weekly.

Japapese Initiate uch.

In the organization of their army the Japanese copied the German system, and in the navy the English and Amer ican. In their code of laws they iml- tated La Code Napoleon, and after ward the German principle and meth cd. In fance they copied the Ameri- can system by adopting our gold, sill ver nickel, and copper money, and they went so far as to copy the green backs from us. Their first paper money was made and printed in New York in 1870. If you will take up those old Japanese greenbacks you will find them exactly the same as the American, with no difference except in the writing.

A HeavV Fine.

Under the Elkins law any railroad company which pays rebates in any form, or any shipper who accepts them, is liable to fine of from $1 ,000 to s20, ,000, upon conviction. It also prohibits the carrying of freight at less than the published tariffs. The inter- state commerce commission is empow- cred to detect and prosecute violators of this statute. President Knapp of the Commission states that since this law was passed, rebate paying has been as rare as forgery.

temporarles, he seems to have been partly forgotten by later generation. His entire life is so closely associated with the history of the Constitution that the accounts of the battle between the Constitution and the Guerriere is Illustrative of his bravery and courage.
 The conflict took place between the two boats in 1Si2 off the Gulf of St. Lawrence. At the call of the fife and the drum, every man upon the Ameri- can vessel sprang to his post. Mus kets and pistols were at hand and sand had been scattered over the deck
 The Guerriere had already opened fire, but Captain Hull waited until he was within pistol shot of the enemy. Then he fired a whole broadside As a British mast fell, the ships came to- gether and the American sailors tried to bind them fast The two vessels parted, however, and the remaining masts of the Guerriere fell. With great holes torn in her sides, the Guerriere lay, a total wreck, and soon surren- dered to the Constitution. The effect of this victory was a new confidence in the American navy, a sentiment in- valuable at the time to the success of the war.
