to talk to the visitor, but he would be
glad to see him next day, says the

asked the bore. Mr.. Blaine made an
elaborate consultation of his engage
ment book. Come at 10 o'clock to-

When a perfectly strange woman
came for the soiled clothes three
weeks ago the mistress of the house
came TO the conclusion that her own
laundress had simply employed a
new messenger, and made no com
ment on the circumstances. But when
two weeks had gone by. and still the
old laundress-known as Susan, no
last name having been mentioned
did not appear, the mistress of the
house felt that she would be lacking
in her duty If she did not make some
inquiry about her. Where is SUSAN"
she asked the tall and bony structure
who came for the clothes. she has
gone to Pennsylvania to live, yes

posture. she went to Pennsylvania
some time ago, an she lef good-by

Installation of Electric Lifts at the
City Hall.

The two electric passenger elevators
authorized by Congress at the last session
to be installed in the city hall are COM
pleted. Thomas w. Power told a Star
reporter today, as the initial trip from the
basement to the top floor of the old city
hall was made. that after an inspection
tomorrow he will turn the elevators over
to Mr.. Elliott Woods, superintendent of
the Capitol. Mr.. Woods is expected to
notify Marshal Palmer later in the week
and the elevators will probably be open
to the public Monday next
The need of the elevators have been
felt for a long time and the justices of
the Court of Appeals and Justice Gould
whose cOurtrooms are on the top floor,
will greatly appreciate the difference be-
tween climbing two flights of stairs, the
only way now to reach the third floor,
and being lifted in ten seconds from the
basement by means Of the new elevators.
Mr.. Power was awarded the contrac
September 1 last and in turning over the
work tomorrow will be just five weeks
ahead of the contract time limit. The
bid for the work was $3.50 for the two
lifts. The elevators have a capacity of
1900 pounds. and a speed of go feet a
minute. Each elevator is provided with a
reinforced concrete and steel foundation
and is equipped with the most sensitive
speed governor and other appliances
which are said to make fall of the
elevator almost impossible.
