"A RaiIevay Terminal

This may be termed the vestibule to
the tracks, as two sets of stairs de-
scend from it to each of the train plat
forms on the track level. The con-
course and adjacent areas are open to
the tracks, forming courtyard $40
feet wide by 30 feet broad, rooted by
a lofty train shed of iron and glass,
similar in design to the famous train
sheds of the new stations in Frank
fort and Dresden, Germany. In addi-
ton to the entrances to the concourSe
from the waiting room, there are also
direct approaches from Thirty first and
Thirty third streets and Eighth avenue.
The third level, which Is at a depth
below the surface of the street cor
responding to the height of four story
building, is the track level. When the
two tracks emerge from the tubes I'M
der the Hudson and reach the entrance
to the station yards at Tenth avenue
they begin to multiply, and at Ninth
avenue and extending into the station
the total number has grown to twenty
one There is also a reduction in the
number of tracks leading out of the
station TO the east to q total of four
for the main line, two passing under
Thirty-second and two under Thirty
third street, and thence under the East
river to the Long Island City yards.
The track surface of the station may
he compared to two unfolded fans join
ed together at the open ends. the ham
die of one extending under the Hudson
and that of the other under the East
river. Within the station area, cover
ing twenty five acres of ground space,
there are sixteen miles of tracks. This
trackage area will afford ample facili
ties for easy movement of many hun
dred trains a day by electric power.
Through trains from the western side
of the Hudson after discharging pas
sengers will proceed at once TO Long
Island City, where the train yards and
terminals will be located, thus leaving
the station tracks clear of any idle
equipment, and likewise the westbound
through trains made up at the Long
Island City terminal will pass through
the station, stopping only TO take up
their quota of passengers.

FIRE HEROES

In q letter to his sister, Katherin,
Russell of San Jose, Stephen Russell, {
captain in the San Francisco fire de
partment, deals with.a particular fea
ture of the recent disaster which has
hitherto escaped attention, says the
San Jose Mercury. Mr.. Russell SAYS:
1--WE will never be able to give any
kind of description approaching &C
curacy of the terrible scenes during The
earthquake and for the three days fol
lowing. AS soon MS possible after the
shake / asceTtaiHed that all my family
was uniDjured. Then commenced oul
fight with the fire, which lasted amid
narrowing and nerve. racking scenes fol-
fftytwo hours without intermission.
1T took two firemen to hold the hose
while two more sheltered them with a
wet blanket. And many, many times
we would lie down in the gutter and
roll IN the water, but it would not be
two minutes till we We're perfectly dry
again. Our coats fell fnem our backs.
Rubber coats lasted no length of time
at all. Our caps were burned or baked
on our heads. Our feet were blistered
by the heat on the rubber boots Yet
every man fought on for fifty two
hours, when ordinarily a two hours
fight will exhaust a man. The doctors
and nurses went up and down the line
and injected strychnine into us, so we
could go on. And one volunteer citi-
zen, who had good Judgment, went up
and down the line with a sack and
dipped it in the gutter, then applied 1t
to the back of our necks. Many times
were we trapped by the fire and could
not get the horses to. our engines, but
always the citizens volunteered and
pulled them out for US, The horses
were exhausted also and could not pull
the engines at times. One place in
particular, up a steep hill, we put a
rope on the engine and about 500 peo-
pie got hold and dragged horses, engine
and all up the hill. We had over half

Plans for the new Pennsylvania rail
road station in New York city have
been perfected, and a description OF
the great building and its surround
ings has been issued by the company
Although the station structure when
contrasted with its szyscraper neigh
bors will appear low, its scope and
architecture will make it impressive
wide departure from the conventional
railway station, says the New York
Herald
The exterior construction is to be of
pink Milford granite, similar to the
building stone of the Boston Public IL
brary, the University club in New
York, the courthouse in Pittsburg and
the Chamber of Commerce in Cincin-
natl
The main entrance, according to the
plans, will be in the center of the struc-
ture in Seventh avenue, opposite the
intercepted end of Thirty-second street.
This will be for foot passengers only,
and from the street entrance to the
stairway to the main waiting room
there Will extend an arcade 225 feet

shops, which will be occupied by mer
chants whose wares will appeal espe-
cially to the requirements of travellers.
On either side of the Seventh avenue
entrance there will also be series of
stores. At the further end of the ar
cade the restaurant, lunchrooms and
the cafe will be established, with prop
er Kitchens and service connections.
Beyond VIII be the general waiting
room and the copcOurse, all easy OF ac-
cess by convenient Stairways. Apart
from the main entrance there are other
convenient entrances for foot passen-
gers from the street level to the gen
eral waiting room and concourse from
both the streets and the avenues. At
n central point in both streets wide
bridges leading into the street floor of
the station span the carriage subway.
The general waiting room, the largest
OF its kind in the world-32O feet long,
40 feet wide and $50 feet highs the
central section of the plan. Adjoining
the general waiting room on the west
are two subsidiary waiting rooms, %
by 100 feet, respectively for men and
women. provided with seats and open
ing into retiring rooms, with layatories
attached.
To the east of the general waiting
room the main baggage room, with 40
feet of frontage for the use of the trans
fer wagons, is located, covering the full
area occupied by the arcade and res
taurants Oh the plane above. The bag
gage Is delivered and taken away
through a special subway thirty feet
wide. extending under and along the
entire length Of Thirty-frst street and
Seventh and Eighth avenues. From
the baggage room trunks are delivered
to the tracks below by motor trucks
and elevators. The cab stands will
also occupy this level There will be |

Speaker Cannon Is $50 richer by rea-
son of the forgetfulness of his son-iH-
law, E. y. lie Seure, who, as the joke
is on him, hasn't the courage to ask
Uncle Joe for d return of the money,
says a Washington dispatch to the New
York Sun. Mr.. lie Seure, like his dis
tinguished father-ln-law, is a banker
in Danville and makes his home ut the
Cannon residence. One day while the
speaker was away, either by accident
or design, he wore to his office pair
of Uncle Joe's trousers. That night at
his club a friend paid him $50 in three
twenty dollar notes, which he careless
ly placed in one of the hip pockets of
his father-in-law's belonging and then
forgoSall about the money. Upon Uncle
Joe's return few days later he don
ned the garment which Mr.. LIE Seure
had been wearing and, reaching around
into the pistol pocket, discovered the
three twenty dollar bills. He at once
suspected what had happened and at

Crop Planted by Moran CFkan.) Con-
greEafion For Raising Money.
A novel means of raising money for
church purposes recently began at Mo
ran, Kan, says the Kansas City
Times. Some time ago ]. c. Strong,
one OF the country members of the
Presbyterian church, who owns large
farm a mile north of town. suggested
to the officers of the church that they
rent land from him consisting of thir-
ty acres and plant it to crop, the pro-
ceeds to go to the church.
The officers and pastor approved the
plan, and it was then submitted to the
membership, which also approved it.
The country members volunteered to
furnish the labor and teams to plant
the crop. One hundred persons, near
ly all of whom were members of the
church, met at the field and plowed
and planted 1t to Kaffir corn. Twenty
plows were at work in the field. Plows,
harrows and planters We're at work at
the same time.
The women of the church prepared
the dinner. and two tents were pitched
in the field. one of which was used as
a cook tent and the other as n dining
tent
After dinner some of the women sat
on the riding plows that We're being
used, and some who could not get a
riding pillow took n walking piow and
plowed few rounds in the field. When
the crop is ready for cultivation a SINH
lar day will be observed. Many people
from town went out to see the work be
ing done.

The Latest in Paris Fashions

Stripes are especially good for walking skirts. as they lessen the chopped-off effect.
 More walking lengths "trottoirs" are be- ing worn than during the last season. In plain materials sunburst kiltng, stitched flat around the hip, is favorite form. Perhaps one French woman out of fifteen, on an average, will have her skirt inch above the ground-the fashionable walking length.
 Gut ,latever you do, don't suggest tho thought that called down derision upon an Ameri- gil lately who insisted upon having her Elm pire gown cut short!
