MONUMENT ELEVATOR

After nearly three months OF work the
repy cables have been installed in the
WASHINGTON Monument Persons who
have visited the historic shaft in the last
few months have been compelled to walk
tie whole distance TO the top, and, con-
secuently, visitors have been rather
scarce. The intense cold weather in the
last part of January and most OF Febru-
airy also made a trip to the top Of the
Monument undesirable.
However, the four new cables have
been placed in position, and the great
elevator will begin to run next Monday

THE WHITE LIE SEASON.

The hardwre merchant carefully did up a pair of old-fashioned skates wooden body, solid steel blade screw in heel, straps in front, about three pounds to each foot-and deposited them among a number of tagged par cels behind the counter. He smiled broadly as the regular caller entered.
 Some people call this the Christmas season of the year." he remarked. II have another name for it. call it the white lie season. I was thinking of it just now as I was doing up pair of skates made way back in. the early his- tory of the colonies. I didn't suppose I had them in the shop until charita- ble customer inquired for something of the kind that wouldn't cost over twenty-five cents. I found them under the caves up stairs. Do. you know what that boy'n say when he sees those skates?
 Just what I wanted; just what I've been wanting for long time That's a white lie. They're nothing like what he wanted; and inside of him he's dis appointed enough to cry, He hoped he'd get the new-fangled sort that clamp on with twist of thefwrist; but his father doesn't draw a Mccall sala- ry and he'll have to make those clu1n- sy things do, poor lad. ;,.
 "A few days more and everybody Il be telling white lies. There'n be stand ing around trees covered with cotton and tinsel or the baskets that hold the presents and they'll clap their hands and exclaim: This is just what I'vt been wanting!' >e-
 ''Yes, it is" snickered the hardware merchant. "It makes no difference 1 what the bundle contains. If you gav' a blind grandmother little red sled O football she'd show it proudly an' | say it's just what she's been wanting I tell you, there are a good man! heartaches go with. Christmas, especial ly among the young folks in. the house of the poor. They don't get what the! want by several dollars werth;, bu they don't let on, and probably it good discipline for then1a
 But" he concluded. ''I'll be dog goried if I'll send those skates to tn
 minister's son. I'll give him an up-to date pair myself and III make no nois about 1t, either. That'll be one whit lie headed off. anyway, Tropics of tn Day in the Providence Journal.

BEAUTY OF THE GREAT THRONE
 < E, ROOM OF CHINA. t;e

Her majesty's. throne room at the winter palace fronted on court which was surrounded by well-built walls with curiously Shaped doors and win- dows and ornamented yellow and titled designs at intervals. In the center of the wall in front was the immense gateway, with wooden fold- ing-doors, which had: just opened for her passage. The yeranda of the throne room had two. rooms projecting upon it, making of it a rectangular space with walls around three of it's sides. This veranda was quite different from any at the summer palace, where they run the whole length of the buildings, back and front. ,~>.. ..-.. .+c-s + Entering, I was struck by the beauty of the great central hall-the harmony of it's proportions, the somber splendor of It's. color.

all the restful, harmonious Chinese in teriors had seen, with it's dull red walls and it's splendid coffered ceiling glowing in color and glinting in gold the central dome, with elaborately, carved pendentives, being painted in brilliant primary colors, subdued into & rich harmony by the demi-obscrity, for it had no lantern" and received it's light from the windows below. .
 The curious feature of the domes in several of the palaces in the Violet City, so effective from within, giving elevation and space to the interiors, is that they are not visible from the out- side of the edfice. The beautiful straight line of the roof, with it's up turned corners, remains intact in it's purity and retains it's restful simplicity
 The hall was sipaved with great blocks of highly polished black marble, which dimly reflected the glowing splendor of the walls and ceiling. In the center of .ofie side. was a low dais, richly car peted, on which stood a great antique throne and footstool of red lacquer, framed in ebony and inlaid with clof- some; the three-leaved, screen behind was of .broze, with landscapes in low relief. On each leaf a poem in golden characters gave the needed toch of brilliancy to the sonnber nlassiveness of the dull broze.
 Great wooden doors, with huge glid- ed dragons in high relief opened into apartments to the right and left of this splendid hall.

TOPEKA BANK FAILS.
First National Closes Its Doors ow-
ing Depositors Total
$1,3OO,OOO.

Topeka, Kan, July 5.-By closing
its doors Monday the First national
bank Of Topeka threw into liquidation
the $7,O00,0O0 estate of G. j. Devlin.
IN which several Chicago banks are
heavily interested. The comptroller of
the currency has appointed National
Bank Examiner J. T.. Bradley receiver
of the bank.
According to a recent statement the
First national bank of Topeka owed
depositors $1,39O,0OO. OF these deposit
tors the state of Kansas has over
$5O0.OOO in deposits, the city of Topeka
$4,000 and the county of Shawnee
about $4,000.
No definite statement has yet been
made as to the condition of the bank.
Col. w. H. Rossington, vice president
of the bank, locked the institutions
books in the vault to await the arrival
of ]. T. Bradley, the national bank ex-
aminer, whom the comptroller had ap-
pointed receiver Of the failed bank. and
he would only say: 1.-THE banks trou-
BILE has not been caused by dishonesty
on the part of anyone. but by lending
too largely to one borrower" This
borrower is, of course. Mr.. Devlin, and
the bank is said to hold the capitalists
paper to the amount of 81, 100000. Mr..
Devlin, whose sudden illness brought
about the tangle in the big coal mining
and railroad properties, valued, it Is
estimated, at Gloss to $7,0OO,OO0, is still
under the care of a physician, and no
statement could be secured from him.
