Rarely have all the people shown
such keen regret over such an occur

doubt, the career of Peter Joseph has
been such as no other Negro in our
city has 1ad. He has held high po-
sitions in the government service, the
greatest of which was elector in 1876,
when Hayes and TiIden were contest
ing for the presidency. AT that time
he showed what kind of a man he was
by refusing bribe of 100000 to vote
for Tilden This incident was typical
OF his career. He was staunch and
true. He knew no compromise with
what he thought TO be wrong. The
race is great loser by his death both
in what he would do for it and for
his example, In Riverside he rests
among the dead who too followed the
fortunes oil their country in the war
sleeping until the grand reveille when
he will rise to see the glorious harvest
that has come from the seeds of self
sactifce and persistent struggle he
sowed while here among us.

VETERANS QUEER HOBBY.
Pennsylvanian Has Ball of Tinfoil Scraps Which Weighs 525
 Pounds.

For 12 years, day and night, utiliz- ing ali the spare time at his command, Charles H. Wolf, a veteran of Com pany D, Eleventh Pennsylvania volun- teers, and for the past 15 years super intenGent of the town hall, German town, has followed a-most unique hob by, says the Philadelphia Record. For the first time, he has just revealed the interesting facts connected with his singular diversion, that of making a solid tinfoil ball weighing 525 pounds, which no two men can lift.
 It measures 48 inches in circumfer- ence and contains S6750 pieces of tin foil, secured from wrappers and bags containing various brands of smoking and chewing tobacco, which reaches the superintendent from many parts of the United States, but principally from conn ades of Ellis post. No. 6, c. A. R of Germantown. resident soldiers of Gettysburg and friends in this city and Germantown.
 Questioned as to what prompted him to such an unusual undertaking, the superintendent replied: Well, 1t was 12 years ago that began rolling a piece of tinfoil that I had obtained from bag of smoking tobacco, and it soon assumed ball-like shape. It was then conceived the Idea of making ball that would surpass anything of the kind in the world. think have succeeded. and am naturally proud of my achievement
 T will continue adding pieces of foil tc the ball until January 1, 1906, when [ will cease the work, which Is very tedious. as 1t requires almcst thres months time for me to accumulate suf- ficient tinfoil to add ten pounds of weight to the ball"

TREES BOUND UP
Novel Method Used by Building Hover
 on Cooke Street.

The manner in which the building movers that raised fuss on Cooks street a few days ago are now operN ating show that where there is q will there is way. The section of the house they are now moving is eonsid- erably larger than the first section. Electric light and other kinds of poles nave to be taken up to make way for this part and q staff of pole and line. men are following In the wake of the slowly moving house.
 But 1t is the way in whiSh the men avoid cutting or damaging the trees shows what they could have done at hrst. Instead of cutting down the trees or parts of them, the men just bind them up with ropes in the form of huge broom so that they will not obstruct the passage of the house. But this Is nothing more nor less than lock- ing the stable door after the steed has been stolen. Some trees on Cooke street, the removal of which would be godsend to many women, particularly on dark nights, were not touched. while valuable trees were greatly dam aged.

A NEW SYSTEM
A New Scheme to be Inaugurated
 at Chicago.

Chicago, Oct. o3-A test of the two platoon system for the fire depart ment began yesterday and will con tinne for three months. The station at S3 Franklin street, one of the most important in the city, was designated by Mayor Dunne as the scene of the test and to provide for two full shifts, enough men were transferred from outside houses to increase the working force from 26 to 36 men.
 Under the system on trial half the men will work night shifts of IA hours, while the day shift has ten hours of duty. Each Sunday at noon the shifts exchange places so that the night shift when it begins duty for the week must stand a watch of twen- ty hours.
 Under the old system every man was entitled to an hour for each meal at his home, and in the course of F days his time of consisted of one full day of twenty-four hours. one night Of twelve hours and four half days.
 While the two-platoon system gives au aggregate of double this amount of time off duty, it is argued that the time off is of little benefit for recrea- tion as most of it will be taken up in sleep.
 During the long unbroken watches under the new system the men are not allowed to leave the station, cren to the extent of crossing the street 10 se- cure tobacco.

TWO NEW TOWNS
The Government Will Turn a Desert Waste Into
 Building Lots.

Washington, Oct 23.-Two towns. for which the United States goverh- ment will act as sponsor, will be ere ated next month in. southern Idaho on sites which now are an absolute desert waste. Names already have been chosen for them m-Heyburn for the first, which officially is to be erected on November 14, and Rupert for the second, which is to be created one week later. The two towns will be seven miles apart. Sales of town lots will be conducted under government aus pices on the days the towns are erect ed. The lots will be sold to the high est bidder.

The towns are located on the recently constructed branch of the Oregon Short Line railroad.

 Hitch To-Day.

Tokio, Oct. 23-The naval review to-day passed off without the slightest hitch. It was most impressive sight, not however on account of the class and number of the ships but as a conglomeration of fighting craft fresh from the war and crowned with victories of unprecedented magnitude.

During this maneuver Ad- riraI Togo was at the emperor's side. The emperor then received in audience on board the Asama, Admiral Noel and the captains of the British and Ameri- can warships present lthe battleship Wisconsin and the cruiser CincinnatD.
 The weather was fair, but 1t was misty on the water. Popular enthusi- asm was aroused to the highest pitch. Besides the thousands who witnessed the naval pageant from all sorts of craft in the bayL all the available points of vantage along the shore were densely covered with spectators. The spectacle caused much joy and satisfaction among the Japanese, G. pecially in the breasts of these who re called that only forty years have elapsed since ar that very spot no war ships except those. of foreign powers had ever fioateE

 SURPRISED

 Bank Will Open.
The Shortage it is Said Will Reach $l, 500, ,00O.-Larger than Was at First Sup- posed by the Directors.

New York, Oct 23.-A special to the Tribune from Pittsburg says Fred Gwinner, president of the defunct En- terprise National bank, when asked yesterday what the shortage of the Enterprise would amount to, said:
 Tt will be very large, much larger, in fact, than we first supposed. From what I know now it will reach ST. 100000. None of the directors or off cers, not even myself, had any idea that it would reach such an enormous sum as that.
 "The directors have determined, how ever, that no matter how great the shortage, 1t will be paid, and the bank reopen for business. We hope before month elapses 1t will be in opera ton again and will eventually hold up it's head and occupy the proud position that it formerly commanded"
