she could not recover. Attendants at
the hospital said she appears to be

MUNICIPAL. ARCHITECTURE.
Importance of Individual Character In
Town Buildings.

Importance of Individual Character In
Town Buildings.
To the same extent that the parks of
a city often lack individual character
many Of our municipalities fail to at
tract or satisfy In the architecture OF
their buildings, says the Los Angeles
Times. Every town or city in the
world may adopt a style for public
buildings, which individuals IN sut1i-
cient numbers will be glad to supple
ment, to enable them to have civic
character which shall Immediately be
noticed by even the most superficial
observer.
Even small villages tucked away in
the hills and not often reached by the
travelling hordes would add to their
prestige and Importance if they but
stood for some style, though it might
not be the most suitable. AS it is
with man so is it with collection
of men. 1t is always better to stand
for what you believe to be best, even
| though in the wrong, than to make no
stand at all. The world takes no note
of the inactive, unprogressiVe, tactless
village or city any more than it does OF
that stripe Of man. Strike out on
some distinct line. Aim high, whether
YOU hit the mark or not An attempt
and a failure are far better for all con
cerned than no attempt, and your
chances are good for scoring high.
Having delivered a sermon, it may
be called to mind that church Is
oft first built in budding village
and the suggestion Is that it be built
on the mission. old -I%!ish or other
style of architecture. Lai2!', when s
schoolhouse shall be thought necessary
see that it harmonizes with what al
ready Is. Only by pursuit OF such
method may yon approach reasonably
near the goal. City Beautiful, and al
centers Of population, no matter how
large, may have distinctive, indiyid
!. uai character 1t should be stated, toe
that in all cities or towns now bein:
. built on a thought Of before plan tn

CIVIC IMPROVEMENT.
Begin the Good Work at Home and Ex-
tend to the Streets.

*
tend to the Streets.
Improvement work, like charity
should begin at home. First remove
the rubbish piles from your own prem
Uses, that you may be able to see the
litter in your neighbours. He that has
an unclean yard can hardly be expect
ed to convince another that clean prem
ises are a JOY unspeaka BILE. says the
Los Angeles Times
One engaging in the work should see
that both his front and back yards are
neat and well kept. his lawn in good
condition, buildings and fences in re.
pair and well painted and a general
air of prosperity and thrift in evidence
If all who are interested would fall to
in these matters it would be easy to
lead the way, and it is by no means
beyond possibility that the "disease
might prove contagious and a general
cleanup Of the community result.
When concerted action is taken look
ing to civic beauty there is no question
but that the part of the town most

There Is no question as to where to
begin-streets and sidewalks are most
In evidence--nowhere else does rubbish
or weeds mar the scene SO effectually
Residents should refrain from putting
rubbish or papers In the street, nor
should they even burn it there except
1t is refuse raked from the street A
clean sidewalk betokens general clean
liness and shows nice consideration
for the general welfare, comfort and
convenience of the public.
When your own premises and the
streets and walks are we'll kept, the
planting of all streets with suitable
trees will do more to add beauty to the
community than all other uncompleted
tasks combined. There Is both mn,
n1ctpal and private capital in well

perts who have examined intestinal parts
OF the mans body. In view Of this ind

HERvEY's TREASURE FOUND.
Was Murdered in 1900, But Rob
2 beers Failed to Get Cash.

WHEELING. w. Va, November 30
A carpenter making repairs to the Hervey
mansion. on the National road, five miles
east of this city, had occasion to tear up
a floor, when he was surprised to fnd
heavy box, which, on being opened. was
found to contain $1,000 in currency.
mostly gold.
The mansion was the home of Col. james
Hervey a wealthy retired farmer, who in
March. 1900, was murd red by robbers. A
short time prior to his death he sold
farm in Marshall county for $11 900 and
placed the proceeds in wheeling bank.
For some unexplained reason the money
was withdrawn from the bank on the day
preceding the murder, ard members OF
the family were unable to account Tor It's
absence when the estate was sett ed.
. John Mooney and Harry Friday. known
criminals, were arrested on lon aly road
several miles from the Hervey mansion;
and through footprints in the snow and
their inability to account for their pres
ence in the locality in the middle of tn
night they were convicted and subse-
quently hanged in the pentantiary at
,undsville.
The discovery of the box OF gold yes
terday leads to the belief that the rob-
bers learned that Hervey withdrew his
money and called at his house to get 1t.
He was an infirm old man, and his muir
