WORLDS HIGHEST TOWER.
Huge Cylindrical Shaft to Re Built for
the A M . q LII en- of Nerv- Y nrkrrs.


Huge Cylindrical Shaft to Re Built for
the Amusement of New Yorkers.
Original always and in all things.
New York is soon to have the oldest
amusement enterprise on the face Of
the earth, in the shape of tower
taller than any structure in the world
and equipped with a larger variety Of
combined entertainments and utilities
than anything that has ever existed
for the edification of the millions who
are constantly and hungrily seeking
new pleasures.
Called THE Weber Tower" after its
designer, Carl Weber one Of the best
known experts In the matter Of tall
steel-COncrete constructions, the build
Ing will be unique in many ways, and
when it has been erected, either In one
of the parks Of Manhattan, or in some
equally prominent spot, 1t will un-
questionably be one of the foremost
attractions Of the metropolis.
In the first place, it will reach the
enormous height of ,250 feet, just 25S
feet taller than the Eiffel tower In
Paris, and more than twice as tall as
with 800 feet, is at present the high
est permanent structure In the world.
1t will so far overtop everything in
New York that comparison is idle, the
Park Row building, which now holds
pre-eminence, being only 3S2 feet high,
and the st. Paul building, ranking
second, having but 308 feet. In Eu-
rope, after the Elffel tower, there is
only the Ulm Cathedral. with 52S feet,

CHAPTER NH.

This was all that David told us. We
saw, indeed. very little Of him after this
day. He took what we gave him without
a word Of thanks, and he did not pre-
tend the least interest in either Of US or
our doings or our welfare Yet he had
known both Of us all his life, and he was
out hve or six years older. A strange
return. knowing now all that l know.
l am certain that he was dazed and con
founded, first at finding his uncle alive,
and next al the reception he met with.
He was thinking of these things and of
that new plan of his, yet imperfect, by
which he could wreak revenge upon his
uncle. This made him appear duller and
more stupid than was his nature.
We sat waiting for more experiences,
but none came. How, for instance, one
would have been pleased to inquire. came
an honest DeYonshire man TO consort
with a gang of fellows who had all
done something" and were rowing and
tramping about the country ready TO 10
something else. Before David lost his
head he used 10 drink, but not with
rogues and tramps. Yet now he confess
ed without any shame to having been
their cOmpani0n--a tramp and vagabOnd
himself. and the associate Of rOgues. By
what process does a man deGcend so low
in the short space Of two or three week,
as TO join such a company? / looked Gu

BAD FIRE SUNDAY
New Residence of j.. E. Hum.
ply Nearly Destroyed

About noon Sunday the fire depart
ment was called out by a blaze in the
basement Of the residence built last
fall by J. E. Humphrey, formerly of
Rondell. The department was on
hand in but a few minutes and soon
had the fire out in the basement. 1t
had however, worked up in the parti-
tions and there it burned for nearly
two hours before it was finally put
out.
It is supposed that the fire caught
from a furnace in the basement. Mr..
and Mrs. Humphrey were in Cakes, N.
D., at the time attending the funeral
of Mrs. Kate Austin Angel and the
house was in charge of a young man a
nephew of Mr.. Humphrey. He left
the house for a few minutes to 90 to
the barn and on his return found the
rooms SO full of smoke that he was un.
able to get to the telephone to send in
an alarm.
The entire interior of the house was
ruined as we'll as nearly all the furni.
ture. The loss will amount to from
$500 to $1,000.

Tendency of the Times

The tendency of medical science is
toward preventive measures. The
best thought of the world is being
given to the subject. 1t is easier and
better to prevent than to cure. 1t has
been fully demonstrated that pneu-
monia, n of the most dangerous d.
seases that medical men have to con-
tend with, can be prevented by the
use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
Pneumonia always results from a cold
or from an attack of influenza grip,
and it has been observed that this
remedy counteracts any tendency of
these diseases toward pneumonia.
This has been fully proven in many
thousands Of cases in which this rem
edy has been used during the great
prevalence of colds and grip in recent
years, and can be relied upon with i'm
plicit confidence. Pneumonia often
results from a slight cold when no
danger is a~pprehended until it is sud
denly discovered that there is fever
and difficulty in breathing and pains
in the chest, then it is announced that
the patient has pneumonia. Be on
the safe side and take ChamberIain's
Cough Remedy as soon as the cold is
contracted. 1t always cures. For
sale by all druggists.

H BABY'S EARS.
They Really Require Attention From
the Moment of Birth.

They Really Require Attention From
the Moment of Birth.
The ears are quite as important little
members to be cared for as the eyes,
and when they stand out from the head
they are anything but ornamental.
From earliest infancy be careful to see
that the ears are always kept back in
place. When the child is lying on his
side be sure that the ear is lying fiat
against the head, not folded over to-
ward the face. Be careful that the
child lies on one side as much as on the
other. If he lies always on one side the
ear on the opposite side is apt to stand
out a little more than the one on which
he lies. Nurses when putting children's
caps on are often careless in not seeing
that the ears are pressed fat against
the head. Time and again when q ba-
by's cap has been removed have l seen
the little ears red and creased by being
bound forward by the snug cap, and If
baby has thick hair or curls which are
gathered in a little mass behind the
ear they. too, will prevent the ears
from lying back close to the head, espe
cially where there is the slightest tend
ency Of the ears to stand out. The
mother or nurse should be very careful
Of these little things, for If neglected
until the child is a few months old it is
not easy then to commence to remedy
this defect. 1t must be looked after
while the child is very young.-Marian.

FIRE AT FREDERICK
$4,000 Blaze Wipes Out
Whole Block

Frederick has again suffered a
severe loss from fire. Friday night a
blaze was started in some way IN
Herrett's furniture store and before 1t
could be put out had wiped one block
of the village out of existence. Fred
erick's need of better fire protection
was never more clearly shown than by
this fire and the chances are that
some action will now be taken in that
matter. The fire made a spectacular
show and every one in town was out,
either as volunteer tiremen or as
spectators. Herretts store, where the
fire began, is a total loss and in figures
will amour to over $500. j. j.
Chamberlain, the hardware man,
looses over $500. J.. Fl. Murphy's sa-
loon is a complete loss and, building
included which belongs to Chas.
Bremen of this city, will amount to
about $1,000 to $500. NJ. A. Martello
general store. suffered partial loss OF
from $500 to $1,000.
1t is understood that each concern
mentioned carried insurance so that
the losses will not fall entirely on
them. Most all of the buildings will
probably be rebuilt in the spring.

Authorship Of Ancient Literature.

0AA VI
In the earliest examples we possess
Of ancient literature we are not allowed
ever a glimpse Of the Municipalities Of
their authors. The works themselves.
If they had been priced because Of the
wit. ingenuity, fertile fancy, brilliant
conceit or any other Individual pecu-
liarity, mental or temperamental, Of the
men who produced them would have
been preserved. In some cases, as In
that Of the Iliad and Odyssey, the re-
puted authorship has been as obstinate
~ questioned as that Of the fourth
gospel and several of the epistles. In
the very earliest literature the indi-
v1dual was of no account in the matter
of authorship; he was only the collector
or editor of spontaneous and unwritten
folk song and legend or, If he gave these
their final shape, was only joint author
with his race.-H. NJ. Alden in Harper's

Whooping Cough.

Whooping cough is more infectious
before the whoop develops than it is
afterward. Children who have been ex-
posed to the disease and have a slight
cough should be isolated for several
days lest they communicate it to other
children. 1t may begin at any time
during three weeks after exposure.
When this time has passed without the
symptoms appearing the child is prob
ably safe.
