BUILDINGS IN MINIATURE.
Architects often Make Clay Models
of Important Structures.

Architects often Make Clay Modeis
of Important Structures.
Although the architect is still the
most important person in the planning
II any big public or private building, he
often depends on the model maker and
not the craftsman to show his patron
Just how the structure will look when
completed. The model maker, in other
words, takes the architects drawings
and makes an exact counterpart of the
building on a small scale in clay.
When a theater Is to be constructed,
for example, such a model Is made with
the greatest minuteness, and every de-
tail il looked at from the point Of view
Of the stage, thus avoiding the posi-
bility that when it is too late some of
the seats will be found quite out of
range Of the performance. In other
buildings architectural details that APP
pear excellent on paper are thus some
times discovered to be inharmonious
with the character of the structure as
a whole and can be changed before the
actual process of their construction has
started. BY the use of models, in fact,
nothing Is left to chance and every
body can express his objections before
the work Is too far advanced to make
the necessary changes seriously eXpen-
Siye.

A TEST OF NERVE.
Oue of the Ways In which Indians
Duel to the Death.

Among the Indian tribes the method
Of fighting duels differs. There are
some tribes where Il challenge to "a duel
means inevitably that both men must
die. When an Indian feels aggrieved
he demands n combat. The day for the
same is fixed far in advance and ia
made the occasion of II little celebra-
ton. The entire tribe assemblies. The
braves sit in Il circle, behind them their
squaws and the young bucks.
The offended man Is armed with u
rife or a shotgun. The challenged
principal is unarmed. At a word both
men arise and face each other, the I'M
armed man barring his breast to the
bullet of his adversary. With eyes
riveted on the little round hole at the
end of the barrel pointed at him, the
doomed man must face the ~protracted
ordeal of expecting death at any in.
slant without the least sign of weak
ening. The executioner may hold his
gun as long as he pleases in order to
try to break down his enemy. He may
raise It and lower it or hold it steadily
on the man under the frightful strain,
but not even with an eyelid must the
unfortunate betray his anxiety. At
last the gun cracks, and the bullet
speeds it's way and the victim lies dy-
ing. The slayer hands the weapon to
relative or q friend of the deceased and
is'put through the same ordeal.
